The next day, Xiao Yao was startled as soon as he opened his eyes.

"Holy crap! Who are you?"Jayce stood up suddenly. This does not mean that he is timid. Anyone who just opens his eyes will be shocked when he sees an old face.

"Boy, you just cured me yesterday, and you don't recognize me today?"old master of the Brooks family couldn't help laughing.

Jayce patted his head before he came back to his senses completely, and said angrily: "Old man, you have to know that scaring people will scare them to death."

"Haha, little brother, your name is Jayce, right?"old master of the Brooks family seemed to be in very good condition. Jayce didn't expect that he could get out of bed and walk around so early and he was full of energy.

"You should call me kid, little brother really upsets me."Jayce said with a bitter smile.

Calling a 70- or 80-year-old man a brother-in-law? Jayce really doesn’t have the courage!

"Okay, Jayce, let's get up and eat first."old master of the Brooks family smiled and said, "After you finish eating, we will discuss how to thank you." After saying that, the old man walked out with his hands behind his back.

Jayce shook his head. After getting scared, he quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth. After everything was done, he sat on the table outside the kitchen and started drinking milk and eating bread, but he felt uncomfortable no matter how much he ate.

"Bang!" Suddenly, a piece of paper was slapped on the table by Edwin Brooks.

"Mr. Li, what do you mean?" Xiao Yao glanced at the piece of paper and recognized that it was a check. He counted it carefully and found that it was almost fifty million.

"Mr. Jayce, don't get me wrong. This is just a consultation fee for you, not our gratitude."Edwin Brooks rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

Jayce frowned, drank the milk in the glass in one breath, and said: "Put it away. Although I am not the kind of person who treats money as dirt, I still don't bother to make a living by this method. I have grown so big, I have treated many people, but I have never received a consultation fee. Medical skills are used to treat diseases, not to make money. Maybe in the future, when I can no longer survive, I will open a small clinic, but my consultation fees are also It won’t be this high.”

Ever since he first came across the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic and started reading it, his great grandfather's words had been lingering in his ears: It is a matter of course to treat illnesses and save lives.

Although Jayce has gone down the mountain now, it does not mean that he can forget his grandfather's teachings.

Edwin Brooks was immediately embarrassed. He did not expect that Jayce would refuse so decisively.

"Edwin Brooks, what are you doing?" At this time, old master of the Brooks family happened to come downstairs. When he saw the scene in front of him, he became furious, "Are you giving Jayce money? Ha, 50 million, it's really not that much." Less!" Although he said this, his tone was full of anger.

"Dad, I just want to thank Jayce."Edwin Brooks lowered his head and said.

"Is this how you thank me?"old master of the Brooks family eyes widened and he shouted angrily, "Do you think my life is only worth 50 million? When I was in a coma, I was not unconscious. What did Jayce do? I know how much pressure he is under, but in the end, what do you mean by giving him 50 million?"

old master of the Brooks family became angrier as he talked, and finally dropped the purple clay pot in his hand to the ground.

"Old man, you have just recovered from a serious illness, so you can't be angry."Jayce said.

"Yes, yes, Jayce is right, I'm not angry."old master of the Brooks family took a deep breath and tried to calm down his mood.

After a long time, he spoke again: "Mr. Jayce, I have heard what you said before. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I will never forget your kindness. This cannot be measured in money. In the future, as long as you If you ask anything of our the Brooks Family, we must agree to it, no matter whether it’s fire or water!”

Although old master of the Brooks family did not give any substantial benefits, his promise was tantamount to giving everything to Jayce. If Jayce was greedy for money and wanted all the property of the Brooks Family, then the Brooks Family would not have any objections. of.

Jayce at old master of the Brooks family and smiled: "I accept it, but old master of the Brooks family, I suggest you give all your property to Lucia Brooks. Of course, this is not because I have a good relationship with her. At least your property After allocating it now, no one will expect you to die early."

Jayce's words made Edwin Brooks stunned. He understood that Jayce was telling the truth, but... this didn't mean that any truth could be told outside! Doesn't this clearly mean there is a problem within the Brooks Family?

old master of the Brooks family just smiled bitterly and said: "Thank you for reminding me. In fact, after going through hell, I have finally come to my senses. No matter what happens in the company from now on, I will leave it to Lucia to handle."

After that, he sat down again and said, "Actually, what happened this time also taught me a lesson. It made me understand that loving Lucia before was the best thing I did in my life."

Coincidentally, at this time, Lucia Brooks, who was wearing home casual clothes, also walked down.

"Grandpa, actually, things are not as bad as you think."Lucia Brooks comforted in a low voice.

In fact, the saddest thing now is old master of the Brooks family.

He has lived for such a long time, what kind of monsters and monsters has he not seen? How could he not know what his sons, grandchildren, and granddaughters were thinking?

However, he hoped even more that he didn't know. At least that way, he wouldn't feel so pitiful.

After curing the old man's soldiers, Jayce was a little confused.

The uncle said that Tianling Grass is in Haitian City, but Haitian City is so big, how should he find it? Plus I don’t have much money, so I can’t hold on for long!

Thinking of this, he had a plan in mind.

"Old man, I really need to trouble you with something now. Oh no, two things."

Hearing what Jayce said, Edwin Brooks's face suddenly turned ugly. He felt that Jayce's previous rejection of the 50 million from him was not because he was really just money, but because he was fishing for a big fish in the long run to win their favor. .

Look, this is a request!

"Huh? Say it!"old master of the Brooks family was stunned at first, and then overjoyed. He was still thinking about how he should repay Jayce, but this opportunity came.

"The first thing is that I hope the old man can help me find a medicinal plant called Tianling grass. I don't know what it is exactly, but I have to find him now. The reason why I went down the mountain this time is precisely because We need to find the Tianling Grass."Jayce said.

old master of the Brooks family pondered for a moment and nodded: "I will mobilize all my contacts and let them do it."

"Okay!"Jayce nodded, "Thank you very much, old man."

"What about the second thing?"old master of the Brooks family was a little anxious, "Jayce, you can say something that is difficult to do and will bring you great benefits."

"Haha, the second thing is really to benefit me."Jayce said with a smile.

Edwin Brooks looked unhappy. Look, the fox's tail is about to be exposed, right?

"I want you to help me find a job. It doesn't require a high salary, as long as you take care of food and housing."Jayce said.

Hearing this, old master of the Brooks family, Edwin Brooks, and Lucia Brooks all opened their mouths.

"Jayce, are you sure that the profit you mentioned is to help you find a job?"old master of the Brooks family didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Originally, he was ready to make Jayce the Lion speak loudly, but he didn't expect that this was what the other party was talking about.

"Old man, is it difficult? If it doesn't work, I'll go outside and have a look."Jayce said. After all, his origin is unknown. He doesn't even have an ID card, let alone a graduation certificate. He wants to find one. This job is really troublesome.

"No, no, I just didn't expect you to make such a request..."old master of the Brooks family said with a wry smile, "Then what do you want to do?"

"I don't know what I can do. My specialty is healing, and the second is fighting."Jayce said.

"Oh?"old master of the Brooks family was shocked.

I am really a bit old and confused. Can I really push out a talent like Jayce?

He thought for a while and said with a smile: "Otherwise, Jayce, from now on you will live in our the Brooks Family and take care of food and housing. As for your monthly salary... let's start with 100,000 yuan."

"No, no, I can't ask for so much."Jayce waved his hand quickly.

"Haha, although the salary is high, the work is not easy. You have to work to protect Lucia's safety. After all, these things have happened now. After I transfer the company completely to Lucia, I don't know how many people will come looking for me. What about his trouble? Secondly, if our the Brooks Family has any serious illness or minor disaster, we can trouble you, right?"old master of the Brooks family said.

Lucia Brooks smiled and said: "Grandpa, you spend one hundred thousand yuan a month to hire a peerless miracle doctor and an unpredictable bodyguard. Isn't it a great deal?"

old master of the Brooks family spread his hands and said, "I can't help it. I gave you too much, and Jayce has to take it too!"

Jayce scratched his head: "It's actually nothing troublesome. It's just a little effort. One hundred thousand yuan a month is really too much." He remembered that last year he followed his third grandfather to South Africa to complete an SSS-level mission and assassinate an When he was a warlord, he braved the hail of bullets and after completing the mission, the third grandfather gave himself five hundred yuan. 3

Jayce feels that this money is really difficult to earn!

Now, just to treat himself and protect Lucia Brooks, he gets one hundred thousand yuan? This is indeed something Jayce didn't dare to think about before.

"Jayce, if you refuse, you really don't want to give me the face of this old man. You said so much before, but you didn't accept it. This salary is really low. After someone like you goes out, Not to mention one hundred thousand, even if it's a few million, someone will be willing to hire you."old master of the Brooks family Chen Ken said.

Jayce hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, I can try..."

Before he finished speaking, a thick male voice came from the gate.

"Jayce, our young master would like to treat you to a meal." Standing at the door was a man in a black suit and a pair of sunglasses with an expressionless face. At the end, he added, "My young master's name is Cooper Darcy.”
