Chapter 1369: 669

"I have already grown up!" the girl interrupted Sean Knight in somewhat stiff Mandarin, "I really want to go to China..."

Sean Knight had a headache. Was she planning to force herself on him?

"Mr. Knight, I know you are a kind man. But if Viola stays in the small town, the end result might be just like theirs..." Sergei pointed at the girls who had already mixed with the team members and said:

"The same. She also speaks Mandarin, basic translation is still possible. Her father is a teacher, but he got sick, and their home went broke because of this. If you don’t want her, her relatives are likely to sell her to a Digger..."

Sean could tell that some of Sergei’s words were emotional, but most were factual.

"If I keep her here, your job as translator and guide will be gone," Sean Knight said. "Are you willing?"

"I... am willing." Sergei finally lowered his head.

"Alright then, you hand it over to him." Sean Knight said expressionlessly, "I’ll keep her as a translator and guide."

Though Sergei seemed somewhat down on the surface, he still sighed with relief and began to advise Viola on some precautions.

Viola shook her head softly, clearly not someone ungrateful, unwilling for Sergei to trade his job for her own sake.

Sergei firmly explained to her. He explained that he had already made a large amount in the past few days, enough for several years of living.

He urged Viola to cherish this opportunity, and if she could follow Sean Knight to China, then she would truly make it big.

Actually, the handover didn’t involve much, a few words were all that were said. After speaking, Sergei walked up to Sean Knight, bowed deeply to express his gratitude:

"Thank you, Mr. Knight, I will pack my luggage and leave here immediately..."

"No need. Although you no longer need to be the translator and guide, you can stay as a mediator. I’m not familiar with these people, but I don’t want to take this garbage with me, I need someone to manage it for me," Sean Knight stated expressionlessly:

"I find you quite pleasant, so it’ll be you."

Sergei was stunned!

"As a mediator, you must strive for the greatest benefits for me, otherwise, you should know my methods!" Sean Knight’s words were somewhat harsh.

Sergei snapped back to reality, nodding hurriedly, how could he not know that Sean Knight was giving him an opportunity!

"Of course, if you do well, I won’t be stingy with the mediator fees!"

"Please rest assured, Mr. Knight! I will definitely do my best!"

"Having a good nature is a good thing," Sean Knight added. "But kindness without principle is stupid, so, you must remember, kindness also must choose its targets.

This time, your kindness to your target was correct, therefore, you should rightfully get a reward!"

Sergei felt like he was riding a roller coaster!

"Also, I have a mission for you." Sean Knight had Sergei come into his tent, "You are to keep an eye on a woman in town."

Sean Knight pulled up the woman’s image for Sergei to see:

"After you find her, do not stir things up, but come and tell me."

Sergei immediately nodded, then took a photo of that woman with his mobile phone and saved it.

"Okay, go and arrange a single tent for Viola, tell her about the rules here, and you are responsible for looking after her these days."

After Sergei left, Elijah Hastings came in.

"Boss, that girl..."

"Is also a person who’s had a tough life." Sean Knight said, "Give her a chance and see if she can seize it. If she can, then help her out. If she can’t, then consider it a failed experiment."

"Understood."

The next morning, Lev’s tractor came over and took the girl along with yet another batch of spoils of war. Although there were fewer items this time than on the first day, the quality was quite high; he left behind $35,000.

Under the silent guidance of Sean Knight, the team members quickly found the entrance to the warehouse.

Bursts of cheering brought the nearby Diggers over.

From a distance, seeing the big hollow place and items being moved out of the cave, even a fool would understand, these people had found a huge treasure!

This news spread across the whole small town and reached the ears of all the Diggers like wildfire!

Shortly afterward, a large group of Diggers and brokers arrived there.

Viola followed closely behind Sean Knight. Although her face resembled a Barbie doll, her expression was cold, showing no kindness to others except a slight smile only when coping with Sean Knight.

Sergei had already gone to town to search for that woman, leaving the translation tasks to Viola.

Undeniably, although Viola’s Mandarin wasn’t perfect, her translation was still quite powerful.

She managed to repel most of the Diggers.

However, there are always some who are wealthy and bold. Soon, a group of security personnel, protecting a man and a woman, came over.

The man, no taller than 1.70 meters, wore sunglasses and a fur coat, and had a cigar in his mouth–a typical local tyrant look.

The woman wore leather pants, was tall and slim, her black lips appeared dangerous yet emitted a unique sexiness.

Very beautiful, very dangerous.

"Our boss wants to buy your spoils of war, including what you haven’t dug out yet!" a translator across the team members shouted to Sean Knight:

"Can we talk?"

Their gaze first fell on the pile of weapons and parts.

"Please, don’t dig anymore. If we can make a deal, we would like to do the remaining work. Be assured, we will pay a big price!"

Haha, hearing this made Sean Knight happy.

It had been a long time since he was this delighted.

But Viola squeezed through, her face stern, lowering her voice as she said:

"Boss, this man... is a bad person! He deals in this kind of stuff.

Anyone who finds a treasure, he will buy it cheaply... then sell it high. Our town has already lost several people because of him!"

So he’s involved in both sides?

Then that little hint of guilt Sean Knight felt, completely vanished!
