A few days later, at the Qing Yuan Restaurant.
"It's still the same taste."
Chen Shu's eyes held a hint of emotion. The dining table was filled with dishes like braised ice wild rabbit, steamed spiritual tail fish, and other delicacies made from fierce beasts.
Four years ago, Zhou Shi, the leader of the 666 Beast Taming Team at the time, and also Xu Xiaoyu's uncle, had treated him to a meal at this very restaurant.
That was the first time Chen Shu had tasted gourmet food made from fierce beast ingredients. From then on, he opened a new door to the world and became unstoppable…
"Why aren't you eating? Don't be shy!"
Chen Shu gestured to Zhang Feng and the others, saying, "I, Han Fei, will pay for all the expenses today!"
"Chen Pi, it's not that we don't want to eat…"
Zhang Feng rubbed his head, his expression odd, and slowly said:
"The problem is, this is already the third table of food. Have you not eaten for a week?"
The four of them were already stuffed to the brim, but this guy kept eating non-stop, as if he had just escaped from a disaster.
"Alas…"
Chen Shu sighed and continued:
"It can't be helped. High-level beast tamers like us require a lot of energy. You guys don't understand yet."
"…"
The four of them froze. They felt like they had been looked down upon…
But thinking about Chen Shu's strength, he had probably looked down on many people before, so they didn't pay it much mind.
"Alright!"
Chen Shu swallowed another spiritual tail fish, bones and all, and even smacked his lips.
The sight made the four of them a little unnerved. This guy was truly formidable…
"Uncle Zhang, the fierce beast incident is over. We agreed to split the earnings based on contribution."
As he spoke, he took out a newly issued bank card and handed it over.
"There's a total of ten million Huaxia dollars in here. Uncle Zhang, you take five million, and the remaining five million will be split among the three of you."
"So much…"
Zhang Feng was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
They hadn't done anything at all. They hadn't participated in the entire battle, nor had they even gotten close to the Giant Tiger King. They could practically be said to have been spectating the entire time.
They had expected to receive a hundred thousand for their troubles, but they were given ten million directly.
Zhang Feng's other two team members also showed signs of joy. One million was already their annual earnings.
"Uncle Zhang, please accept it."
Chen Shu smiled, appearing extremely generous.
The true treasure of a Black Iron Monarch, including its core materials, was worth about a billion.
The Giant Tiger King had undergone an evolution, its strength being between a Black Iron and Silver Monarch, so its value naturally increased considerably.
However, in reality, he had already given them quite a lot.
If Zhang Feng and the others hadn't notified him, the other civilian beast tamers wouldn't have been able to resolve the situation.
In that case, the officials would have been dispatched to handle it,
and the closest powerful individuals would likely have been Ye Qing and Chen Shu.
But Ye Qing had already retired, and Chen Shu was a member of the Imperial Dragon Guard, so it would essentially fall upon him to act in the end.
"Leader, I've already asked my family."
At that moment, Wang Yuyao, who was standing nearby, said softly:
"That tiger was a legendary Monarch, its total value was almost a billion."
"Hm?"
Chen Shu's brow furrowed. His hearing was sharp, and he naturally heard it immediately. Moreover, the other party had no intention of hiding it, but rather spoke it deliberately for him to hear.
"Can you not speak nonsense?"
His gaze was calm as he looked at Wang Yuyao opposite him.
"I…"
Wang Yuyao's momentum faltered. She felt a heavy weight in her chest, even struggling to breathe.
But a glance at the soldiers on the street gave her a bit of confidence.
He wouldn't dare to make a move on the street, right…?
She lowered her head and said, "How am I speaking nonsense? I've investigated thoroughly. That Monarch was at least seven to eight hundred million!"
"No, no, no, what I mean is…"
Chen Shu smiled slightly and said, "The value of that Giant Tiger was fifteen hundred million, because it wasn't an ordinary Black Iron Monarch!"
"??"
Wang Yuyao was stunned. So, she was the one speaking nonsense?
Chen Shu smiled slightly and said, "But even if it was worth ten billion, what does it have to do with you?"
"But we provided the intelligence. If it weren't for us, would you have gained so much?"
Wang Yuyao was still a little unwilling. That was fifteen hundred million, and she really couldn't bear to let it go.
Chen Shu nodded and asked calmly, "Then how much do you think you should get?"
Seeing Chen Shu's gentle expression, as if he were reasonable, Wang Yuyao felt less pressure.
After a while, she said thoughtfully:
"We get five hundred million, which is one-third. That's not excessive, is it?"
"Hm?"
"Of course, our leader played the main role. Not only did he find the great fierce beast, but he also notified you. He should get two hundred million."
Wang Yuyao quickly added, "The remaining three hundred million is for the three of us to share."
Chen Shu couldn't help but chuckle. This girl was quite clever, knowing how to pull Zhang Feng and the others into it.
Given his relationship with Zhang Feng, it was indeed difficult to object.
"Leader, what do you think?"
Wang Yuyao turned to look at them, feeling a little smug in her heart.
If Zhang Feng and the others supported her, they might actually reach an agreement.
Moreover, even if Chen Shu disagreed, they could still bargain, and the final split would definitely be more than the current one million.
However, to her surprise,
Zhang Feng and the others all had strange expressions, but there was no excitement at all.
Liu Xuan and Zhao Yu even had a hint of panic in their eyes, wishing they could run away immediately.
Big sister, you're truly audacious, trying to extort the Southern Jiang Han Fei…
