MoQiu started paying attention to his surroundings, and positioning from the moment he woke from his complacency.
Good news is that Mo Gan seems to be truly treating him like a friend. He took them to his residence, then explained how he gets his appointments. Each assassin has a trained pigeon. They choose a secret location, teach the birds to return there. Whenever they are ready to do an assignment, they will take these birds, place them in an assigned location with their tag attached to the cage.
When there's an assignment, a summon is sent, thus, they return to headquarters within a set time to receive the assignment and start work.
If it were a game character, then this guy would level up from assassin to shadow master, then to assassin guild leader.. MoQiu thought.
"How much do you get paid?" MoQiu wondered.
"Thousand gold .. for a request." he answered.
"So, you are rich." MoQiu probed.
"Not quite." Mo Gan answered.
