Peerless Bodyguard of a Stunning Beauty

Hence, Zhao Rong teased the corpse driver in front of him, saying:

”I didn’t expect that as a corpse driver, you could earn more than working at Huawei?”

The corpse driver laughed and said:

”Of course, working in a factory not only comes with high pressure but also requires overtime and endless learning...

But as a corpse driver, once you learn the spells, you can earn money easily and without stress...”

When the assistant heard that being a corpse driver was very profitable,

he immediately got interested and asked in detail:

”Hey Bro, as a corpse driver, how much can you earn in a year?”

Upon hearing this, the corpse driver took out an abacus from his pocket, calculated his annual income, and then told the assistant roughly, saying:

”Take this time for instance, I bought six zombies from a Miaojiang corpse driver for 600,000,

If I drive them to the northwest, I can sell each zombie for 1 million...

This way, by buying and selling, I can earn 5.4 million...

And I can make the trip back and forth twice in a year...

So by the end of the year, I can easily earn 18 million...”

When the assistant heard that a corpse driver could net 18 million a year,

he envied this profession immensely and said:

”Hey Bro, do you take apprentices?

If you do, I’ll leave Brother Zhao Rong’s team now and join you as a corpse driver,

because corpse driving is ridiculously lucrative, earning 18 million a year is really tempting...”

Miss Lili licked her lips and looked at the corpse driver in a new light, saying:

”I always thought you corpse drivers were lazy slackers or mentally ill with nothing to do, running around with zombies...

So it turns out you’re in it for the money...”

The corpse driver smiled at Miss Lili and said:

”Yeah, if it wasn’t for the money, why would I be a corpse driver? I’d have to be out of my mind,

previously, I owed a lot of money,

but ever since I became a corpse driver, I’ve not only paid off all my debts,

but I also built a house in my hometown, got married, and bought several acres of good farmland...

Now, I’m planning to work for another year or two and buy a house in the big city,

and there must be schools around,

so it will be much more convenient when my kids go to school in the future...”

At this point, Zhao Rong curiously asked the corpse driver in front of him, saying:

”But I have a really curious question that I’d like to ask you...”

After sitting down, the corpse driver took out some black bread from his backpack, eating as he said:

”Ask away, if it’s a question I know the answer to, I’ll definitely tell you...”

Zhao Rong said, ”I’m very curious about those northwestern people who offer high prices for your zombies,

what do they do with those zombies?”

Upon hearing this, the corpse driver’s expression suddenly changed, and then he said very cautiously:

”This, I don’t know,

anyway, after I buy these zombies from the Miaojiang corpse driver and drive them to the northwest border, I can sell them at a high price...

As for what those northwestern people do with these zombies, I don’t know...”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Rong was filled with curiosity about this question.

At the same time, Zhao Rong began to have a foreboding feeling in his heart.

He felt that such a profitable job must not be normal,

otherwise, it couldn’t possibly be this lucrative.

So, Zhao Rong continued to ask:

”Corpse driver, another question for you...”

The corpse driver, while eating black bread and drinking vodka, said:

”Ask away, if it’s something I know about, I’ll definitely tell you...”

Zhao Rong gave the corpse driver a pack of Master Kong’s braised beef noodles and, trying to get closer to him, said:

”Since driving zombies is so profitable,

then why don’t those people who buy the zombies in the northwest go to Miaojiang themselves, get a few zombies, and drive them from Miaojiang to the northwest themselves?”

The corpse driver laughed heartily and said very boldly:

”To become a corpse driver, it’s not something just anyone can do...

I can say without exaggeration that in this land of China, there are not more than 1000 people who can qualify as corpse drivers...

So, even if driving zombies is so profitable,

those people from the northwest don’t have the capability to drive zombies from Miaojiang to the northwest,

so they can only purchase zombies from us...”

Zhao Rong felt this matter was very bizarre and said:

”So after you buy the zombies from the hands of the Miaojiang people,

how long does it take you to drive these zombies from Miaojiang to the northwest?”

The corpse driver calculated the time and then said:

”It probably takes about half a year...”

Miss Lili, on the side, asked:

”But, I can’t understand one thing, with today’s advanced transportation, why don’t you take a plane, high-speed train, or bus to transport these Qing Dynasty zombies from Miaojiang to the northwest, why do you have to walk with them the whole way?

Isn’t that a waste of time and energy,

and also particularly wasteful of manpower and resources...”

Listening to Miss Lili’s very naive question, the corpse driver laughed and said:

”Zombies, after all, are zombies, not living people,

how can they take a plane or car?

Besides, zombies don’t have ID cards either...”

Yu Lan asked a very puzzling question in her mind from the side, saying:

”Corpse driver, for you guys driving zombies like this, won’t everyone see you on the streets?”

The corpse driver told Yu Lan, saying:

”For us corpse drivers, the times we drive zombies are always chosen for early morning or noon...

And we generally choose roads that are sparsely populated to walk on...”

Xuelian asked a very crucial question, saying:

”Corpse driver, since driving zombies is so lucrative, is this job considered a high-risk, dangerous profession?”

Hearing this, the corpse driver complained to Xuelian, saying:

”Miss, you are right, God is fair, if a profession is particularly lucrative,

then it’s either particularly hard, particularly tiring, with no one willing to do it,

or it’s particularly high-tech, generally impossible for ordinary people,

or it’s particularly dangerous, with the constant risk of encountering death, done by very few people...

As for us, being corpse drivers, it can really be said to be dangerous,

there are often zombies that don’t listen and run away,

or zombies that reanimate at midnight and kill the corpse driver,

or on the way, encounter robbers who rob zombies, intent on murder, killing the corpse driver,

or passing through the corpse-driving ditch at night, killed by evil spirits...

In short, the death rate for corpse drivers is extremely high, even reaching 99.99%...”

When Zhao Rong and his group of five heard that the death rate for corpse drivers was as high as 99.99%,

they couldn’t help but take a deep breath, then looked at the corpse driver in front of them with great sympathy, saying:

”Oh my, at first, we were very envious of your profession, thinking it was very lucrative,

but now, after hearing about your death rate as a corpse driver is as high as 99.99%,

we think this profession is truly not something for ordinary people,

so now, we don’t envy this particularly profitable job anymore...”

Suddenly, the corpse driver stood up and pointed out the window, saying to Zhao Rong and his group:

”Oh no, there really are robbers coming to rob the six zombies I’m driving...”
