Asked by Morgan about big Ivan, Gao Yang thought about Morgan's question carefully and nodded: "it's unusual. We should be friends."
Morgan said in a deep voice: "this shows the problem. Who is big Ivan? He is the uncrowned king of the underground world. He controls a huge arms trading network. He is one of the really powerful people in the world. The president of the United States will change his term, but there will be no change of term in the Empire controlled by big Ivan."
Gao Yang smiled and said, "yes, big Ivan, it's really powerful."
Morgan raised the glass, clinked the glass with Gao Yang, drank the wine in the glass, took a long breath, and then stared at Gao Yang and said, "who is big Ivan? Will his men lack mercenaries like you? As long as he wants, he can let mercenaries all over the world work for him, but why does he treat you as a friend?"
Gao Yang spread his hand and said, "well, I saved his life."
Morgan suddenly burst into laughter, holding the glass with his finger, laughing out of breath,.
Gao Yang was laughed at inexplicably and said, "what's the matter? Is it so funny?"
"Ha ha, Gao, you are too childish to say that. After saving his life, big Ivan will treat you as a friend? How childish are you to say that?"
After he finally stopped laughing, Morgan looked at Gao Yang, shook his head and said loudly, "Gao, big Ivan and me, do you think there will be a lack of people willing to work for us?"
Gao Yang spread his hand and said, "well, this is definitely not missing."
Morgan sneered: "Gao, you have to get used to trying to look at things from the perspective of a superior. If you continue to deal with people in the current way of thinking, you will be sold one day. Now let me teach you. First of all, you need to understand one thing, big Ivan. Do you think there will be less bodyguards around him?"
"Of course not."
"Then a bodyguard, or one of his men, blocked a fatal bullet for big Ivan in order to protect him. Will big Ivan regard that bodyguard as a real friend?"
After thinking for a long time, Gao Yang said with a bitter smile: "if it were me, I would, but I think big Ivan, he should not."
Morgan continued to sneer: "yes, definitely not. If the bodyguard didn't die, he might take out a lot of money as a reward and express his gratitude on the surface, but it's no joke to make a bodyguard a friend. For people like big Ivan and me, the friendship is not so cheap."
Morgan took a deep breath and continued: "people like us can get today's status, which is padded up with the lives of many people, including the lives of the enemy and their own people."
Gao Yang nodded and didn't say anything. He knew Morgan hadn't finished yet.
"Big Ivan can't have any friendship with the people who work for him. Of course, he will have friends, just like me. I also have friends. Simon is my friend, but can all our bodyguards be friends? Don't be kidding. If I say that, I must be lying to you.
In order to win the loyalty of my subordinates, I don't mind showing everyone that I am their friend, but there are many people working for me. How can I treat them as friends? I pay and they work for me. It's a fair deal, isn't it? "
Gao Yang smiled and said, "yes, it's a fair deal. I'm a mercenary. I understand this very well."
Morgan reached out to Gao Yang and said in a deep voice: "Frankly speaking, there is a gap between your status and mine, but I am willing to treat you as a real friend rather than a community of interests. As in my case, I think that big Ivan comes from the same way of thinking as me. At this point, we actually have the same ideas on many things. I can see your characteristics, so I think big Ivan must be the same Yes, so you and big Ivan can become friends. This is not what big Ivan and I give to you, but we think you are a friend. You are a friend we can put aside our interests, not talk about money, but only talk about feelings. "
Gao Yang nodded and whispered to Morgan, "thank you. Thank you for telling me this."
Morgan waved his hand and said, "we are friends. These words can only be said to friends. Gao, you should know that I am not a kind person?"
Gao Yang said with a smile, "yes, I know."
Morgan looked at Gao Yang with a gloomy face and said, "now let me ask you, if, I said if, I didn't take you as a friend, but let you think we were friends, but I just treat you as a mercenary. Just like those mercenaries I often hire, you tell me the news of the diamond mine out of trust, and then, what will happen to you?"
Without waiting for Gao Yang's answer, Morgan said with a gloomy face: "I will kill you. When you are not wary at all, I will kill you and your Satan mercenary regiment, and then I will swallow the diamond mine myself. Do you think this assumption is possible?"
Gao Yang's back was full of sweat, and then he said with a strong smile, "I trust you very much. I don't think you will do that, otherwise I won't tell you."
Morgan smiled, then picked up his glass and said leisurely: "I really wouldn't do that, but I thought about doing it. Although the idea startled me when I was born, I didn't think it was worth killing a friend for a sum of money, a friend I thought was a real friend, so I quickly gave up the idea that made me feel a little guilty."
Gao Yang didn't know what to say, but reluctantly smiled bitterly.
Morgan looked up and said in a deep voice, "I know it will make you uncomfortable to say this, but I still have to tell you this. Do you know why?"
Gao Yang shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I don't know."
Morgan shook his glass and whispered, "mercenaries, in the eyes of people like us, are only available tools. We may like the tools we use, but we will not have feelings for tools. No, we will also have feelings, but tools are tools, right?"
"Yes, I know and understand that."
"The fate of the tool is in the hands of the user. If I want to use it, I will continue to use it. If I don't want to use it, I can use it, sell it, and throw it into the trash can. If I don't like the tool, I will destroy it."
After slowly saying that, Morgan stared at Gao Yang and said in a deep voice: "Gao, your current status is like a tool. You look very beautiful, but you can't control your destiny at all. You can fight very well. But if I want to destroy you completely, will I choose to fight you openly? No, I have many ways to let you die, do you understand?"
"I understand," he said in a loud voice
Morgan nodded, drank up the wine in the glass, and then said slowly, "since you understand, why do you want to be a mercenary? Gao, I think I've made it clear that when a mercenary, you can't even control your destiny and can only be used as a chess piece manipulated by others. Is that a good feeling?"
Gao Yang stood up and picked up the bottle to pour it back to Morgan, but Morgan shook his head and said, "I can't drink any more. People, be moderate and understand when to stop. I can do it. Can you?"
Gao Yang poured himself wine and drank it. Then he looked into Morgan's eyes and said in a deep voice, "Morgan, thank you. I really appreciate you saying this to me."
Morgan said a lot, and said a lot that he couldn't say to others at all. If he didn't really take Gao Yang as a friend, Morgan couldn't say this.
After talking for a long time and sparing a big turn, Morgan has only one purpose to persuade Gao Yang to give up his status as a mercenary.
Gao Yang understands Morgan's pains, so he will sincerely thank Morgan.
Morgan sighed and said, "Gao, you have a bright future. Really, I'm willing to help you. I'm really willing to help you do a lot of things. I think that big Ivan should also be willing to help you. With this, you have a rising channel that other mercenaries can't have. Now you have money, access and resources. You have a lot of things to do."
Gao Yang was silent for a long time, then nodded and said in a deep voice, "yes, I have a lot to do, and no matter what I do, it's safer than being a mercenary."
Morgan looked at Gao Yang and said in a deep voice, "have you changed your mind now?"
Gao Yang smiled and said, "you just touched me. Our destiny can't be controlled in our own hands many times. I was persuaded by you."
Morgan smiled from his heart and said, "just think about it."
Gao Yang waved his hand and said with a smile, "yes, in the future, we have to control our destiny in our own hands. Morgan, thank you for teaching me these. Don't think of anything in return for the shotgun. Your words are much more valuable than the shotgun."
Morgan sighed disappointed and said, "it seems that you still don't want to give up the idea of being a mercenary. Don't deny it. I can hear it from your words."
Gao Yang shook his head and said: "No, I really changed my mind. We may continue to fight in the future, but it won't be like before. We will fight for ourselves. We go to Ukraine and try to earn one vote. When the money is almost enough, we will set up a company and collect commissions to fight for others. Well, I'm not sure. But if it's just for money, I shouldn't take it again."
Morgan said with a wry smile, "well, I've made some progress. At least my saliva is not in vain."
Gao Yang said with a smile: "it's definitely not in vain. Don't worry. I've been thinking about how to quit. Now it seems that setting up the company as soon as possible is the most effective way for us to quit."
Morgan said in a deep voice: "to set up a force company, at least nothing will have to go to battle in person. This is a good way. So, do you have any mature ideas now?"
Gao Yang waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm just going to tell you, Morgan. I still need your help about setting up the company."
