Chapter 16:
"Haha, the conditions are very rich!"
Zhuge Tao smiled, and then said to Yang Wu: "Yang Wu, I admit that it was my Extreme Martial Arts School's fault that I didn't discover your talent after the prospective warrior assessment. However, please believe that my Extreme Martial Arts School's sincerity is the greatest."
"As for the villa and the special training contract, our Extreme Martial Arts School and the Lightning Martial Arts School are not much different. As for the start-up capital..." Zhuge Tao smiled and glanced at Wang Heng, and continued: "My Extreme Martial Arts School can give you 50 million in start-up capital, as well as various secret manuals priced within 100 million!"
After hearing Zhuge Tao's conditions, Hou Zhen and the other two were shocked.
"Zhuge? What are you doing..." Wang Heng said with some dissatisfaction: "You put forward such a condition, aren't you afraid that the martial arts school's top management will not approve it?"
Wang Heng was very clear about the treatment that Extreme Martial Arts School gave to talented martial artists: 20 million in start-up capital and any secret book within 50 million. However, Zhuge Tao's current conditions were more than double that.
The rules of the Extreme Martial Arts School are very strict. Even Zhuge Tao, as the director, has no right to change the conditions for recruiting talented martial artists.
"Haha!" Zhuge Tao smiled and said, "I'll pay for the excess amount!"
Zhuge Tao has always attached great importance to geniuses. He has invested in many geniuses, some of whom failed, but there are also several who have now become war god-level powerhouses and become one of his supporters. In general, the gains are greater than the expenses.
"You'll pay the bill?" Wang Heng frowned slightly.
"Okay! Let's not talk about this for now." Zhuge Tao ignored Wang Heng and asked Yang Wu with a smile: "Yang Wu, we have all stated our conditions. What do you think?"
After listening to the conditions proposed by several people, Yang Wu was silent for a moment, and finally made his own choice.
"Thank you for your kindness, seniors! However, most of my instructors and former senior brothers have joined the Extreme Martial Arts School. So, I also plan to join the Extreme Martial Arts School!" Yang Wu said with a hint of apology.
Although he envied the safety conditions of the military warrior community, Yang Wu still chose the Extreme Martial Arts School for the sake of more freedom.
Moreover, in terms of various treasures, the Extreme Martial Arts Hall has more. As long as Yang Wu's status in the Extreme Martial Arts Hall continues to improve, it will not be difficult to obtain them.
"Haha, good!" Zhuge Tao said with a smile; "Yang Wu, I'll call someone to take you to sign the contract!"
Seeing that Yang Wu chose the Extreme Martial Arts School, Wang Heng and the other two felt a little disappointed, but they didn't say much. They really couldn't offer Zhuge Tao such conditions, or they were unwilling to do so.
After a while, Wu Tong, the chief instructor of Yangzhou City Extreme Martial Arts School, appeared in the room.
"Boss!" Wu Tong greeted respectfully.
"Wu Tong, you're finally here." Zhuge Tao smiled and said, "Go and draft a contract with Yang Wu to recruit talented warriors. Follow the old rules... However, change the start-up capital to 50 million, and the upper limit of the price of the secret book to 100 million. I'll pay for the excess!"
"This..." The conditions given by Zhuge Tao completely shocked Wu Tong.
You know, even Luo Feng and Zhuge Tao only changed the upper limit of the price of the secret book, but Yang Wu's starting capital increased by 30 million. Luo Feng was only 18 years old, but Yang Wu was already 24 years old.
This made Wu Tong wonder if he had heard it wrong.
"What are you staring at?" Zhuge Tao said with a smile: "Wu Tong, you should pay attention. Yang Wu's strength is not lower than yours now!"
"What?" Wu Tong looked at Yang Wu in surprise, but didn't dare to say anything more.
He, Wu Tong, is a general-level warrior!
At this moment, Wu Tong suddenly remembered the question Luo Feng had asked him before the test.
"This Yang Wu, could it be that he really increased his strength by 8,000 kilograms in his first practice of genetic energy? No, no, this is impossible!" Wu Tong thought to himself. Zhuge Tao looked at Yang Wu and said, "Yang Wu, go sign the contract with Wu Tong first. As for the basic training camp, think about it first. If you plan to go, tell me and I will apply for you immediately!"
"Yes, Boss!"
Yang Wu replied respectfully, then followed Wu Tong out of the room.
…
"Zhuge, 80 million Chinese yuan, that's really bold!" Wang Heng exclaimed after Yang Wu and the others left.
"Why, it's such a small amount of money, as if none of you can afford it?" Zhuge Tao said with a smile.
Although 80 million Chinese Yuan is not a small amount, the four people in the room now are all powerful bosses, and each of them has the strength of a high-level general.
For the four of them, 80 million Chinese yuan is really just a small amount of money.
"Although 80 million Chinese yuan is not a lot, it is not enough to enter the War God Preparatory Camp. It is very unlikely that Yang Wu can reach the War God level before the age of 30. After the age of 30, his strength growth will definitely slow down. He may be stuck at the high-level general level like the rest of us!" Wang Heng said sourly.
Having known each other for many years, Wang Heng certainly knew that Zhuge Tao had a hobby of investing in geniuses. He, Wang Heng, would also work hard to train some talented warriors, but if he was asked to pay as much as Zhuge Tao, he would not be willing to do so.
Even when Luo Feng was recruited in the original novel, the martial arts school had to pay the 300 million yuan in liquidated damages.
First of all, investing in a talented warrior is risky. As long as the person being invested in has not reached the level of a god of war, even if he is a high-level warrior, it will not be of much help to people like them;
Secondly, these investments are all gifts, and the people who are invested do not need to return them. Even if the other party can reach the level of a war god, as long as the other party is unwilling to help, there will be no benefit for oneself.
Therefore, investing in geniuses in this way is like gambling. Although it is possible to get a god-of-war-level supporter in the future, the more likely outcome is investment failure.
After hearing Wang Heng's words, Liu Dong and Hou Zhen also nodded.
Although 80 million Chinese yuan is not a lot, they would not be willing to spend it to win over a talented warrior.
"Haha, it's just a small attempt!" Zhuge Tao said casually.
Prior to this, Zhuge Tao had already thoroughly checked out all of Yang Wu's information, including the fact that Yang Wu worked in a tavern owned by a side branch disciple of the Wang family.
It was only after he was sure that Yang Wu was not an ungrateful person that he greatly improved the recruitment conditions for the Extreme Martial Arts School.
As for whether Yang Wu can reach the God of War level, he thinks it is still very possible!
"By the way, Lao Wang, do you think that in this assessment, can the little genius Wan Dong from your Thunder Martial Arts School kill more monsters than Luo Feng from my Extreme Martial Arts School? Do you want to compete?" Zhuge Tao asked casually.
Zhuge Tao was in a good mood as he had just lured Yang Wu to the Extreme Martial Arts School.
"Go away... Who has time to compete with you?" Wang Heng was not in a good mood at the moment. "Go away, go away. I still need to continue drinking!"
