To be honest, they also wanted to use that money. After all, everyone’s family background was not good, and this money could indeed improve their lives.

If not for the fact that the money came from an illegal source, they would have used it long ago.

Of course, if they were like Xu Bai, it was not a big deal to use it alone, but it would be a different story if everyone were to use it.

Now that they heard Xu Bai say that it could be used reasonably, everyone pricked up their ears and listened to what Xu Bai said next.

“I spent twenty taels to buy this bodyguard agency, but how much does everyone earn every month? Can anyone answer me?” Xu Bai retracted his hand and rested his elbows on his knees again as he said leisurely.

“If there’s no escort mission, it will only be one tael of silver a month.” Liu Er was the first to stand up and raise his hand like a child answering a teacher’s question.

Since someone had answered, the other bodyguards fell silent.

One tael of silver was equivalent to five hundred yuan in Xu Bai’s previous life.

Not only were houses cheap in Great Chu, but prices of things were also cheap.

Other than some special items, such as books, people did not spend much on other living expenses.

The purchasing power of one tael of silver had already far exceeded that of Xu Bai’s previous life.

But was it enough?

It should be enough.

But when they thought about how they couldn’t spend the rest of their money, it wasn’t enough.

Humans were greedy. They looked at the pot while eating. However, now that the food in the pot could not be eaten, it was extremely torturous.

It was like shopping in a brothel. The beauty had already taken off her clothes, but she said that she only sold her skills and not her body.

How uncomfortable would that be?

“If you want to use your silver without worry, you have to go through a process to make the silver look like it is obtained reasonably.” After receiving an answer, Xu Bai continued, “As for how to make it reasonable, it’s too simple.”

At this moment, all the bodyguards’ interest had been piqued as they stared eagerly.

“I bought the Bodyguard Agency and will give everyone a salary, but it’s only one tael of silver a month. How long will it take for me to clean all your silver? What if everyone bought this Bodyguard Agency together?” Xu Bai finally revealed his method.

The scene was silent. The bodyguards looked at each other.

They still did not react.

Why was it that the silver could be used reasonably after buying the agency together?

“If everyone bought the agency together, we will all be the bosses of the bodyguard agency. We’ll set our salary by ourselves. The money will naturally come through the bodyguard agency,” Xu Bai said.

At this point, everyone finally understood.

They looked thoughtful as they considered the feasibility.

Xu Bai looked at Liu Er and gave him a look.

Liu Er was also thinking, but when he felt Xu Bai’s gaze, his expression froze.

This meant that he had to take the lead.

But he was also thinking about the feasibility. How could he take the lead?

Under that gaze, he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Especially when he thought of the Raging Tiger Bandits, he could only grit his teeth and raise his hand.

“I agree!”

The other bodyguards all looked over.

“If the money can be used reasonably afterwards, of course I’m willing,” Liu Er braced himself and added.

The bodyguards were still hesitant. After all, this was not a small matter.

Xu Bai felt that it was time to add fuel to the fire.

“I definitely want to work together with you to manage a bodyguard agency. No matter how many of you are willing – even if it’s only one of you – I still want to do it,” Xu Bai said calmly. “But after I do it, it will be impossible for other people to join again later. Don’t be jealous when you see others using money.”

As soon as he said this, the bodyguards finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.

As the saying went, watching others earn money was worse than losing money.

After hearing these words, they thought about how others would use money in the future, but they could not use it. As such, they subconsciously raised their hands.

All of them agreed and not a single one disagreed.

Xu Bai nodded his head in satisfaction. “Very good. This matter has been settled. Now, I have one last request. I’ll tell everyone.”

The bodyguards nodded in unison and waited quietly for Xu Bai’s words.

“Now that we’re partners, we’re all in the same boat. Everyone has to guard this matter strictly. If anyone dares to say anything, everyone present will drag him down. Don’t even dare to only think about yourselves.” Xu Bai’s tone became cold.

The bodyguards shivered as a cold wind blew through them.

They felt Xu Bai’s cold gaze and recalled the scene of the Raging Tiger Bandits. All of them revealed fearful expressions.

They were on the boat again.

Not only did they board the boat, but they also drove the boat further.

They had to keep it a secret. They must not say anything.

Once this matter was leaked, everyone would be doomed.

The bodyguards kept quiet out of fear, not daring to say a word.

However, they knew in their hearts that there was no turning back.

“Alright, I see that everyone has understood. Let’s disperse, then. The bodyguard agency should continue with its previous business. Everyone should do what they need to do.” Xu Bai stood up, put away the small stool, and held it in his hand.

The bodyguards heaved a sigh of relief and left.

Only Liu Er was stopped by Xu Bai.

“Brother… Brother Xu, what’s the matter?” Liu Er asked timidly.

“Exchange 1,000 copper coins for me. The bodyguard agency needs some loose changes. Also, since we’re partners, let them bring the money over.” Xu Bai threw a silver ingot over.

Liu Er quickly took it and agreed.

He did not have any thoughts about it. In the past, when the Old Bodyguard Master was around, he often went to the bank to exchange for copper coins.

Without waiting for Xu Bai to say anything, he quickly left.

After Liu Er left, Xu Bai carried the stool and returned to the backyard.

The locust tree was still the same. The progress bar was very slow.

There were no saber marks on this tree, unlike on the wall in the Raging Tiger Bandits. Xu Bai also did not know where the progress bar came from.

However, the most important thing now was not the progress bar on the tree, but the nameless saber scripture.

After such a long time, the progress bar on the nameless saber scripture was almost full.

According to the information he got from Yun Xiang, this saber scripture was divided into 24 parts. As long as an ordinary martial artist comprehended one of them, his saber technique would improve greatly.

Xu Bai was already a Grade Eight Wanderer. What he lacked now was a saber technique.

He had been using the Bone Breaking Saber Technique for a long time, but it was still lacking. After all, it was only Rank 1, and it was even slightly inferior to Rank 1.

In the previous battle, it was the Rain of Maple Leaves that played a decisive role.

However, that was in long-range combat. A saber technique was still needed in close-range combat.

Even as he worked on a progress bar, he had to prioritize specific needs. What he needed now was close-range combat skills.

“If I work harder tonight, I should be able to finish completing the progress bar.” After Xu Bai figured it out, he returned to the largest house in the backyard.

This room was his bedroom. Although the furniture inside was old, it was not damaged.

Xu Bai put on his things, sat on the chair, and took out the Nameless Saber Scripture.

“Let’s go!”

The progress bar began to slowly increase. It was getting closer and closer to completion.
