She’s Hard to Get - C307 Large bounty

Ouyang Jue had been extremely conflicted over this website for the past two days. Therefore, the moment he got through to Xu Mengyun, he could not wait to have her add his and Ning Caier’s names to the line, so that he would not become a nameless blacksmith. When had his dignified CEO of TiaoAo Group ever received such treatment before?

“Didn’t you already arrive at the pier? There should be a local embassy, and your country is very small. It’s about 30 minutes from the pier to the embassy in the center of the city.”

Fortunately, Ling Tian was right beside her and had quickly found the location of the number. He had also found the location of the embassy through the local map, and was very surprised when he heard that Ouyang Jue was still alive. However, the place that Ouyang Jue was calling from was really too strange, causing him to really want to go over and see for himself whether this CEO Ouyang was a human or a ghost.

But Ouyang Jue had other plans for this matter, he seemed to be stuck on that bounty board, and would only stop if his name appeared on there. Furthermore, he did not seem to have any intentions of returning home immediately, which made Xu Mengyun even more confused about his way of thinking.

“Mengyun, I still have some things to do. I’m not going to the embassy right now, so you should send me the information first. I’ll explain it to you later.”

Ouyang Jue wanted to help Yu Di settle the matters on the boat before returning home, so he asked Xu Mengyun to release the missing bounty information. This way, he could move freely around the ocean area, and wouldn’t be pushed into the ocean because he didn’t have any oil on him.

He had seen other people’s bounty on shipwreck before, and the maximum bounty he could get was $50,000. He believed that Xu Mengyun’s casual writing wouldn’t be less than this amount.

His good friend’s actions were indeed quick, she did not tell Ouyang Jue that she had already completed her task, but the moment Ouyang Jue hung up the phone, he discovered that the surrounding people’s attitude towards her had drastically changed. First, the fat person who sold her the phone hastily came out from the house, and even the European person looked at her with respect.

Everyone looked at Ouyang Jue with a hint of respect, even their knees were going weak, almost kneeling down in front of him to kiss his toes.

“What happened to you?” Ouyang Jue was the famous advisor, but when he saw their expressions, he knew that Xu Mengyun had done everything right, but their reactions were way too exaggerated, he only hoped that they did not get thrown into the ocean again, but when they looked at him, it was clear that they regarded him as a god, this kind of reaction was a little too excessive.

“Young Master Ouyang Jue, we didn’t manage to entertain you earlier, we have already prepared a hotel for you and a change of clothes, please come upstairs to bathe and change.”

They actually called out his full name with such precision, and also placed the photo of the bounty website in front of him. After carefully checking each of them, regardless of their height or age, Ouyang Jue was exactly the same as the announcement that was made on the bounty, and it made both of them so excited that their bodies were trembling all over.

They had fished so many shipwreck s out, yet they had never met someone as valuable as Ouyang Jue. They felt that every part of his body was emitting a golden light, and if they casually rubbed a little, it would be enough for them to live half their lives.

“No need, I still have something to do. I have to sell the fish on the fishing boat first.” Ouyang Jue immediately rejected the two’s requests. He was happier than the rest, after he sold the fish, he would go enjoy the hot spring bath with Yu Di and the rest. With the money, he didn’t need them to make the arrangements, he could make his own decisions.

Furthermore, looking at the current situation, there were already quite a few people who saw the bounty, because it wasn’t just Fatty and the European who were surrounding them, almost everyone on the dock was looking over, forming a huge encirclement around Ouyang Jue.

“Mr. Ouyang, we just found out that your family members are looking for you. Do you need us to do something to send you back to your family?”

Everyone’s tone was extremely polite, to the point that Ouyang Jue almost couldn’t take it anymore. His identity as a shipwreck turned into a prince that no one wanted to fight over, and there were even people who fought fiercely over this matter, causing a series of chaos on the dock.

He could not help but glance at the screen and finally understood the reason for the chaos. Xu Mengyun had offered a bounty of five million US dollars for everyone to help find Ouyang Jue. This number was enough to shock the world, especially for this small country’s pier.

All of the bounty money on this website had to be transferred into the account first. If he couldn’t find his family after a long period of time, the bounty party could withdraw his capital or increase the bounty money.

However, since there was someone who could deposit such a large amount of deposit into the bounty website’s account, it meant that Ouyang Jue’s identity was extraordinary. At the very least, it was worth it for someone to gather so much money for him.

This kind of excessive enthusiasm was unbearable for Ouyang Jue, so he waved his hand to disperse the crowd, indicating that the reward money had already been given to everyone.

“No need to trouble yourself. This reward belongs to the Yu Di. He will send me back.”

Ouyang Jue’s words made the majority of the surrounding people scatter. They were all looking at the crew members on the Yu Di ship with envious eyes, these people who seemed to have come from some place, actually got so lucky, causing them to feel that the heavens were unfair.

They wanted to fight a bit, but looking at how Yu Di and the rest were just a bunch of brutes, with that kind of body and physique, these people did not dare to go forward. They could only silently stand to the side and mutter nonstop at the same time.

However, that fat guy and the European did not leave. They saw that Ouyang Jue wanted to fish for oil from his body, because they were not willing to let go of such a big piece of fat.

“Young Master Ouyang Jue, we are not asking for rewards, as long as you can get us to serve you, it would already be a great gift.”

The two did not give up and looked at Ouyang Jue with an extremely petty and petty attitude. Even their original English accent became pure, as if they wanted to match Ouyang Jue’s noble temperament.

“I already said there’s no need, just sell the fish on the boat for a good price and it’ll be considered as helping me.”

Ouyang Jue looked at the two of them with contempt. The two of them were obviously looking down on them, and when they did not see the bounty, they were afraid that the things that they took out were fake, but now they were anxious to stick it in front of him, afraid that he would leave their line of sight and cause them to lose the bounty.

No matter how much money Xu Mengyun wrote down, he would give it to the Yu Di so that he could develop her own island. It would be impossible for these people to split the money with him.

“Of course. We just want to do something.”

The European did not give up. He believed that Ouyang Jue had a great fortune, even if he could not get the bounty, he would be able to obtain a lot of benefits from it. Therefore, he took the initiative to introduce the buyers and asked them to buy the goods from the Yu Di. These people were his regular merchants in the first place, and the goods they bought usually came from the Yu Di.

They told Ouyang Jue that the fish this time were even fresher than before. If there was a next time around, they would definitely be notified of their high quality, and if these people were to let Ouyang Jue see them, then he would have to tell them that the European was forbidden from storing fish for a long time. Furthermore, this European did not seem to be a fisherman, and did not even know how to store the fish.

“Ouyang, what can they give us? What are they trying to do?”

It was certainly a good thing for Yu Di and the others to be able to successfully find the person to receive them. It was just that when facing some colorful bills, Yu Di and the others did not approve, because these things were far less attractive than the things on the boat. It was only now that Ouyang Jue understood that they did not have a specific concept of money.

In the past, even if they had fished the shipwreck out, they would have given his corpse to the European in exchange for a bounty on the bounty website, and then exchange the bounty for something they needed to bring back. That was the reason why the Yu Di was so fixated on this website, it was just that the profits the European obtained from this bounty of a thousand dollars was too great, he actually used a kerosene oil lamp to send them away.

Ouyang Jue originally planned to give this European some money so that he could retire, but he didn’t want to give him any money anymore. All these years, the money he had plundered from the Yu Di and the others should be enough for him to live for a few more lifetimes.

“This is cash. This money can help us exchange for a lot of things. If it’s books, there should be at least tens of thousands of them.”

Ouyang Jue knew that the most important thing to him was the books, so he used the simplest thing to make a comparison. This explanation lit up Yu Di’s eyes immediately, and he requested for Ouyang Jue to immediately bring him to purchase the books, so that he could bring these items back so that everyone on the island could learn the words and language here.

“Alright, let’s go now. Before we go, we need to shower and change clothes.”

With the money, everything would naturally be fine. Furthermore, Ouyang Jue had already reached a point where he could wash his face at the port, so he brought along the majority of the people on the boat. As there were too many goods on board, he had to leave some people to take care of the boat.

No one objected to his actions, and in order to ensure their safety, Ouyang Jue intentionally left the European to protect them, if they were safe and sound, when he returned home, he would give the European a sum of money.

This was what the European wanted. As long as he made the crew his own workers, no one else would come near the ship.

This was the rule of the dock. No one was allowed to snatch the goods from each other, otherwise the dock would become a mess and there would be no way to do business anymore.

It was just that Ouyang Jue had overlooked one point, and that was the greed of human nature. When the people at the dock knew that he and Ning Caier were worth five million USD, this boat of the Yu Di had become a thorn in their side. According to the rules of the bounty website, the standard to complete the mission was to safely return the human or shipwreck’s corpse.

As long as they could send Ouyang Jue back to their side, the money would naturally be theirs. With so many people on the boat, they wouldn’t dare to act rashly, but the number of people on the ship had decreased by half, which was tantamount to reducing their combat strength by half.
