Chapter 920 How Much Is He Worth
Chapter 920 How Much Is He Worth
Eunice looks sexy, young, beautiful and full of the charm of a mature woman.
But if you look closely, you can still see crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, proving that she is no longer that young.
Judging from his appearance, he should be over 35 years old, probably around .
Of course, estimates are just estimates, and we can’t say that.
"You're here to buy intelligence from me, right? Very good. I never turn down business."
Eunice clapped her hands, and the few unlucky guys who had just been hung up were let down again, and then carried into the backstage by several strong men in the bar.
Li Chengxi saw it clearly from his bird's-eye view, and one of the guys even pinched the drunkard's butt...
I dare not imagine the subsequent development.
Soon, Eunice, Alyssa and their group were the only ones left in the bar.
Inviting Alyssa to sit down at the bar, Eunice exhaled a puff of smoke and asked:
"What information do you want?"
She looked at Alyssa and suddenly added:
"Wait, you are Alyssa? Alyssa Li?"
"you know me?"
"Of course I know him. Your eyes are exactly like your grandfather James Lee's."
This sounded like someone her grandfather knew, but then Eunice said:
"That lunatic who deserves to go to hell, I will never forget him for the rest of my life."
Oh no, why does it sound like an enemy?
But at this point, Eunice looked at Alyssa with a hint of apology:
"You should know that when I say your grandfather is a lunatic who deserves to go to hell, I'm not insulting him. Rather, it's a... well, more objective evaluation."
This sounds even more fucked up.
"What did my grandfather do? I never heard of you from him."
"Of course you haven't heard of it. That happened thirty years ago. I was only eight years old at the time and lived in a peaceful colony. I was just planning to go to the toy store with my New Year's money to buy the little bear I had always dreamed of. When I passed by a bar, I was grabbed by a group of drunks who insisted that I dance with them."
There was no light in Eunice's eyes when she said this.
"Among them is your grandfather."
"..."
Alyssa wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. Grandpa, can you be more reliable? How can you open your mouth to let an eight-year-old girl dance with you?
"Then the pirates came. Your grandfather, that madman, was still drunk. He brought less than ten people with him and only four or five guns, yet he dared to charge at the pirates."
This is consistent with Alyssa's impression of her grandfather. He is indeed such a brave man.
Eunice pointed at herself:
"Among those less than ten people, there was me, who was only eight years old at the time. I was tricked by your grandfather into killing three pirates with a laser pistol."
"..."
Alyssa opened her mouth, but suddenly didn’t know what to say.
"Since then, I've found that going to school is boring, and playing with little bears is boring too. Killing people is more fun, you know? I should have become a doctor, or a beautiful flight attendant, or even married into a wealthy family. The handsome boy in the class next to me had feelings for me, but your grandfather ruined everything."
As Eunice spoke, her eyes turned red. She didn’t seem to be complaining to Alyssa, but more like she was just mumbling, which made people doubt whether her mental state was good.
Alyssa hesitated and hesitated again, and finally uttered only one sentence:
"I'm very sorry……"
Alyssa’s grandfather was by no means a great and glorious person. After all, no great and glorious person would become a recycler. But this was the first time that Alyssa had heard of such an outrageous thing.
Eunice muttered to herself for five minutes before she regained some of her sanity. She poured herself a glass of strong liquor from under the bar, drank it in one gulp, and relaxed.
"Forget it, let's not talk about those old things. You came to me to find information about the starship, right?"
Not many people knew that Alyssa's starship was taken away by Carlos in a short period of time. Eunice was able to find out about it. It turned out that Father Pro was not talking nonsense and was indeed a well-informed intelligence dealer. "That's right, I want to know where my starship was taken, and..."
Alyssa hesitated for a moment, and then added:
"What the hell happened to Carlos?"
Long didn't believe that Carlos would betray her. This was because Long often spent time with Carlos on the bridge and knew him very well. She knew that Carlos' greatest strength was his loyalty.
In fact, if Carlos hadn't put the knife to Alyssa's neck, she wouldn't have believed it, but that was the fact.
A person's nature suddenly changes. What might be the problem? Alyssa didn't intend to ask about it at first, as she would wait until the starship was taken back. However, Long strongly insisted to ask.
Eunice narrowed her eyes when she heard that, and the shrewdness that is unique to humans seemed to have returned to her, completely changing her previous image of being full of resentment and nagging.
"No problem. Is the money ready? I have the information you want, but it's not cheap."
“I don’t have much money, but I have this.”
Alyssa took out the hairpin given by Father Pro, and Eunice immediately became angry when she saw it:
"Old dwarf! He really knows how to cause trouble for me!"
She was so angry that she gulped down two more cups, as if she was trying to make up for the gold coins that had flown away.
"Well, since Father Pro has been good to me over the years, I will give you the information about the starship for free."
"Thank you."
"Don't thank me yet. Carlos's information can't be given for free."
Alyssa was also stunned when she heard this.
"Wait, you mean, there's something wrong with Carlos?"
"Whether it is true or not, you can guess it yourself. Anyway, the information is in my hands. I will not give up unless you give me a satisfactory reward."
"But Father Pro gave me a hairpin..."
Eunice picked up the hairpin, broke it off and threw it to the wine rack behind her:
"It's gone now."
"..."
That's right, a token in exchange for information, you can't just use the token to empty someone's pocket.
Father Pro and Eunice are friends, but Eunice and Alyssa are not friends. If you have to say it, she still has a lot of resentment towards Alyssa's grandfather, so of course she can't give everything for free.
"Okay, how much do you want?"
"How much is a loyal crew member worth to you?"
"I said priceless, are you going to take everything from me?"
"Very good. I like chatting with sensible people. I want 5,000 gold coins. I want universal gold coins issued by the Star Cluster Union. Don't fool me with antiques dug out from some ruins."
Gold is also a rare element in the universe, so gold coins can still play the role of currency.
Some metals that were originally valuable have become worthless after entering the starry sea.
For example, refined gold, which was originally priceless, plummeted in price after entering the void to a level not much more expensive than copper and iron.
But then again, five thousand gold coins was far beyond Alyssa's budget.
She didn't have much money in her own small treasury, and she got two thousand gold coins from the loan, but the expenses for supplies during this period, as well as the repairs to the Swan and the ammunition supply, had almost spent all of the money.
If it's one or two hundred, I can still squeeze it out, but if it's five thousand, I really can't.
