"Interesting. What does he want to do?”Li Liang naturally saw the mission on his phone." You spent so much money just to meet me?”
Initially, Li Liang thought that Eric had become a bystander in the past.
but now
"It seems like you like to add scenes to yourself, Mr. Eric.”Li Liang muttered to himself and called Wick.
"What is it?" A few seconds later, Wick's unhappy voice came from the phone.
Li Liang heard Wei Ke's panicked voice and the voice of another woman. He immediately knew that he had made the call at the wrong time.
" It seems that my call has delayed your plans," Li Liang said." Then I'll call back in ten minutes…" Ten minutes should be enough, right?"
"Not enough! Get lost! You're the one who's had enough! Wick roared and hung up.
"Who is it?" Helen, the woman who made Wick addicted and wanted to retire, asked with some resentment," How can you answer the phone at this time?"”
" A bastard." Wick's face darkened." A bastard who can get me out of there!"”
Li Liang didn't really wait for Wick to finish before calling him. He wrote a message and sent Wick the address of the training base and what he needed to do immediately. Then, he got on the plane.
Although it would only take an hour by plane to travel 400 kilometers, it would be too time-consuming to travel by car.
In the CEO's office of the Ai Rui Group, Ai Rui was half-reclining in his office chair with his eyes closed, deep in thought.
Eric knew very well who wanted to kill him and who sent the assassins. Therefore, he called for a board meeting and decided on one thing.
He wanted to lower the price of his company's drugs and fulfill his promise to Li Liang. At the same time, he wanted to completely crush Modona's pharmaceutical company.
Ai Rui Group monopolized almost all the large channels in the market and was a well-deserved large international pharmaceutical company. This gave pharmaceutical companies like Modona a way out.
But now, since Mordona had broken the bottom line and sent out assassins without regard for the rules, he couldn't blame Eric for being merciless!
Eric also knew that if he did this, he would offend even more people.
Therefore, he found Li Liang's face through the hidden camera installed in his villa. Then, he bought Li Liang's identity information from the Hawkeye organization at the high table and issued an independent exclusive mission.
That female assassin had single-handedly killed more than a dozen security guards around her villa. However, in front of Li Liang, she had no power to resist!
If such a strong person came to protect him, his safety would be greatly improved!
Although independent exclusive quests were expensive, compared to open quests, they had an advantage, which was that they could issue more quest targets besides killing. Naturally, he was one of them!
The phone rang, waking Eric from his thoughts. He looked at the phone and realized that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello? Eric answered the call.
"You were looking for me?" On the other end of the phone, Eric heard the voice that he remembered deeply, and he couldn't help but tremble.
Not long ago, Eric had never experienced the feeling of his life being in the hands of others. Therefore, naturally, Eric remembered the owner of this voice very clearly.
" Mr. Li," Eric quickly said in a respectful tone," I'm looking for you for some personal matters.”
"Personal matters?"
"Yes, if you're willing, we can meet and talk about it in detail. That might be better.”
" If you can't spare the time or don't believe me, you can choose the time and place," Eric said." I can go alone."”
" Alright, then. Location, your office, time, and now." Li Liang chuckled softly. Now, open the door.”
Eric didn't react for a moment. It wasn't until someone knocked three times on the office door that Eric finally reacted. He jumped up and carefully opened the door.
"Mr. Li?"
He opened the door and found Li Liang standing at his door. Eric was a little confused. He looked behind Li Liang and beside him, but he realized that there were no subordinates following him.
Then, how did Li Liang come in? Were all his subordinates dead? Just like that, he let her in without informing her?
Eric was not dissatisfied with Li Liang, but since Li Liang could walk up to him so quietly, could the other assassins do the same?
Thinking of this, Eric had the urge to replace all the security guards.
" Don't worry. Although I did walk in so easily, it should be difficult for others to do it." Li Liang smiled and said," Are we sure we want to talk at the door?"”
"Please come in, please come in, Mr. Li. I'm sorry, because... I'm a little surprised." Eric finally reacted. He quickly moved aside and invited Li Liang in.
"Don't be surprised. It's just basic exercise."
After sitting down, Li Liang asked,"You spent so much money to find me. What is it for?"”
"It's like this, Mr. Li." Eric quickly put aside the matter of reorganizing the security guards and focused on the current situation. "I've already held a board meeting and announced that we're going to change the price of the medicine. After the approval of the Drug Administration, this matter will be fully implemented.”
"Very good," Li Liang nodded.
" However, I thought of something troublesome," Eric said." After the assassination attempt by Modona, I realized that the security guards I recruited didn't seem to be of much use in the hands of the assassins.”
" I understand," Li Liang said." You want me to protect you?”
"Yes, Mr. Li, you're really smart!”Eric quickly nodded.
"Previously, I sold authentic drugs from official channels, but due to the high price, I also gave those other companies a way out. If I suppress the price of the drugs,"
" When faced with a desperate situation, many people will do whatever it takes," Li Liang nodded." I understand what you mean. You're worried that those companies will join forces and put a bounty on your head. So, you want me to protect you?"”
"Yes!" Eric nodded and said," As a reward, I'm willing to…"
"Wait a minute." Li Liang stopped Eric.
"What is it? Eric was shocked." Sir, please help me. I'm willing…"
"No, no, no. I'll help you, but you need to change your words, understand?”Li Liang smiled and said," I'm a man of principles.”
"So?" Of course, Eric didn't understand.
"So, you need to use another method to get me to help you.”Li Liang tapped his fingers on the desk." I'm a Templar Knight. I fight to protect order and fight against assassins or killers who disrupt order.”
" So, now, Mr. Eric, you, as the president and chairman of Eric Corporation, intend to turn over a new leaf and lower the price of the drug to normal levels in order to abide by order and the law.”
"However, your peers, those who have broken the order and lost their morality, will use any means possible to take revenge on you.”
" They will ask the dark underlings of the underground world to pay a high price for assassins and killers to assassinate you. In this way, they can maintain their own interests and destroy order at the same time.”
"Because of the above reasons, you came to me, to the Holy Knights, intending to seek help because the duty of the Holy Knights is to fight to protect order.”
" And as a reward for letting a Paladin help you protect the Order, you have chosen to pay…"
At this point, Li Liang smiled and looked at Eric, who was dumbfounded." Mr. Eric?”
"Ah? Eric snapped out of his daze.
He really did not expect that the deal between him and Li Liang could actually rise to such a level! He had changed from being afraid of death and seeking protection to fighting to protect order! This was simply the difference between heaven and earth!
Are you really a Templar? You're a politician, aren't you? Only politicians could so skillfully raise an originally insignificant matter to such a height!
Eric cursed in his heart.
"As the witness and the petitioner of the above matters, how much are you willing to pay for this? Li Liang didn't care what Eric was thinking and continued to ask.
" I'm willing..." Eric thought for a while and immediately gave the highest price he had in his heart. " No matter how much they put on my bounty, it will be doubled into the reward I give you. Furthermore, as a witness to the friendly cooperation between you, the Holy Knights, and me, and to protect order together, I am willing to pay another one million US dollars as an advance reward.”
Eric was a CEO after all, so he naturally knew how to speak!
"You are so generous, Mr. Eric. The Holy Knights thank you for your dedication to protect order.”
Li Liang was in a good mood when he saw Eric being so understanding. How much did a president of a multi-national company need to be put on the bounty list of a hotel in the mainland?
Then, as a small thank you gift, other than protecting your safety, I will also help you deal with those despicable people who broke the order! Li Liang said.
"In order to protect order, I will do my best!”
Acting, naturally, he should act more presentable.
Eric was very understanding and directly transferred the one million yuan to Li Liang's account.
"Sir? Eric naturally did not know what Li Liang was thinking." So, is there anything you want me to do?"
" Of course." Li Liang made a decision after thinking about the current situation." First of all, I can't keep an eye on you all the time, so I have to make some changes to your security measures.”
"Secondly, even if you have already held a board meeting, the Food and Drug Administration will approve your application, reduce the price of your drugs, modify the contracts of all parties, and finally, those pharmaceutical companies will be squeezed to the point where they have no room to survive. They will look for you to negotiate and then find another way to find the killer. This series of processes will also take a long time.”
"You're right." Eric understood that there was nothing wrong with what Li Liang said and nodded repeatedly.
"So, before that, I'll be going through your security measures.
" Yes," Li Liang said." The security measures I'm talking about are not referring to the security personnel. Trust me, sometimes, machines are more reliable than humans.”
