"When is the payment?"
"When you start the work, that's when you make the payment, upfront and in full."
Gao Yang didn't respond; he simply reached out his hand to Murphy. After a smile, Murphy shook hands with Gao Yang, and the deal was considered made.
After retracting his hand, Murphy said with a smile, "You know, this is my first time dealing with a mercenary. You agreed to the payment so readily—I really appreciate that."
Gao Yang smiled, "I'm not just quick to agree; I'm just as quick with the payment."
Murphy shrugged, "Good, then our discussion ends here today. Do what you need to do, and I'll prepare the cleanup crew in advance. Buddy, remember not to make the scene too big. A big scene is hard to manage, and we'd have to charge extra."
Gao Yang nodded, "Don't forget about our guy. When can he come?"
