Chapter 62: The Advice of the "Fortune Teller".

Before heading out, Klein hurried to scrupulously clean his dress and top hat with a small brush and handkerchief, then changed into his white shirt, put on his linen counterpart and the only decent cheap coat he had ever made, and walked briskly into the street.

Melissa's dress, then Benson's suit, and finally my second outfit, which is always not enough to spend...... In addition, it is necessary to accumulate glazed porcelain tableware for entertaining guests one by one...... And you have to save money to buy all kinds of occult materials...... Klein sat in the public carriage and shook his head the more he calculated the family's finances.

He estimated that it would take at least a year for himself, his brother and sister, to live like the so-called middle class.

Of course, this is a case where promotions and salary increases are not taken into account.

The public carriage drove through the streets and stopped opposite the "Divination Club" on Howles Street.

Holding down his black non-silk top hat, Crane half-jumped and half-walked out of the car, and walked along the familiar road to enter the club gate on the second floor, where he saw Angelica, a beautiful lady with brown hair.

There was a residual redness and swelling on her eyes, but the whole person looked very relaxed.

Crane raised his hand, tapped his eyebrows twice, and examined it carefully, and found that the thick gray darkness in the depths of Angelica's emotional color had dissipated a lot, and added a little sun-like whiteness.

After reading it, Klein walked over, took off his hat and smiled:

"Lady Angelica, it's a sunny day, isn't it?"

Angelica raised her head, exclaimed in a short exclamation, and then burst into a smile and said:

"You resemble Mr. Vincent's cat, you don't make a sound when you walk, well, you can tell? Hehe, I forgot, you're a soothsayer who is good at reading faces......"

She paused, bit her lip and saluted:

"Thank you, thank you for the advice you gave yesterday, I feel so much better, I have never been more relaxed, happy, and satisfied than I am now. ”

Listening to the other party's sincere thanks, Klein was also infected with that joy and happiness, and the corners of his mouth turned up:

"It's an honor to help you. ”

While speaking, he only felt that his spirituality was much more relaxed and lively.

This is the "soothsayer" that the "potion" wants? The "soothsayer" who can really help the inquirer? Klein pinched his eyebrows as if he was thinking, and quietly nodded twice.

I have to say that he has found in practice that the current action of turning on and off the "spiritual vision" is still not hidden enough, but the problem is that he can't think of a better alternative in a short time, because he has only been a "diviner" for a long time, and his spirituality has not grown to the current limit, and his own mastery is the same, so it must be a position that can effectively stimulate the spirit in order to be used as a medium for "switching", and there are not many such parts, and the center of the eyebrows is a relatively superior choice.

After thoroughly digesting the "potion" and becoming a real "soothsayer", it should be possible to design more subtle "switch" actions...... Crane nodded imperceptibly and walked towards the conference room with the door ajar.

"Coffee, or black tea?" asked Angelica quickly.

"Dixi Coffee. Klein replied with the mindset of trying every drink.

At this moment, he saw six or seven members in the room, but not including Henus Vincent, who had been there before.

"Mr. Vincent is not coming?" said Klein, pausing in his tracks.

Angelica was stunned and said:

"Monsieur Vincent doesn't come every day, he accepts the invitation to give a lecture at a divination organization in Port Enmat, do you have something to ask him?"

"No, just curious, after all, every time I came here before, I could see him. Crane shook his head with a smile.

At the same time, he discovers that among the seven members are familiar faces of their own:

Glacis who has divined for himself!

Glacis, who was looking at the information on the table with a monocle, suddenly noticed that someone was watching him, so he raised his head and looked at the origin of his gaze.

There was obvious joy on his face, and he stood up with his hands propped up, and rushed in front of Klein in a few steps:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Moretti, I have been wondering if you will come today. ”

"Listen to Angelica, you're not a doctor, but a soothsayer who is good at reading faces?"

Klein smiled and said:

"I'm not the only one good at this, Mr. Glacis, you seem to be completely free of your disease?"

He pinched his forehead and tapped his eyebrows twice, noticing that Glacis's healthy color had returned to normal.

"Yes, I really regretted it at the time, I regretted that I didn't listen to your advice, but fortunately, fortunately, there was a very powerful pharmacist near my house, and he gave my wife quite a miraculous potion, which kept me away from death. Glacis sighed.

As an associate member of the Night Watch Squad, Crane asked with professional sensitivity:

"A very powerful pharmacist, quite a miraculous potion?"

Is it magical?

"He said it was a folk medicine from Lenburg, and in short, it helped me a lot. Glacis replied without feeling out of any shape.

Folk herbalist Klein tapped his eyebrows as if he was thinking:

"What's his name, where does he live? You know, the soothsayer can't guarantee that he won't get sick, and maybe I'll have to go to him in the future to buy potions. ”

Klein knows through his mentors and classmates that the modern medical system in this world has just taken shape, and there is almost no way to deal with many diseases, so there is still a big market for miraculous potions and powerful pharmacists.

Grassy replied sternly:

"His name is Rosen Duckweed, and he has a small shop at 18 Vlad Street on the East End called 'Rosen's Folk Herb Shop'. ”

"Thank you. Klein silently noted it down and spoke sincerely.

Glacis turned around and led him to sit down next to him, while Angelica made her coffee and brought it over.

Compared to Southwell coffee, Dixi coffee has a stronger aroma, but the taste is relatively poor...... Klein took a sip and savored it for a moment.

Seeing that he had put down the white-glazed cup, Glacis hurriedly considered his tone and said:

"Mr. Moretti, may you please do my divination for once, and I will pay you the price you have set. ”

"8p is enough, I'm not going to raise it temporarily. Klein was hoping for someone to find him for a divination, "Do you need to go to the divination room?"

"Okay, Citrine Room. "Glacis was more familiar with going ahead than he did.

After entering the divination room and locking the wooden door, Klein sat down at the long table and asked calmly:

"Mr. Glacis, what do you want to divination?"

"I have an opportunity to invest, but there is too much money involved, and if it fails, my family and I will be hit hard, and I want to know if it will work out. "I've done a divination with tarot cards myself, well, it's a divination after purifying my heart, and the result is not bad, yes, it's my own interpretation, but I haven't violated those symbolic principles." ”

Klein thought for a moment and said curiously:

"Then you describe the matter in detail, and then give your own information, if you can have the other party's better, we do astrolabe divination. ”

"Good. "Mr. Lanerus, during his expedition in the Hornachis Mountains, discovered a large iron mine in abundant and good condition, and he bought it with all his savings, and asked a professional company to survey it, and came to an encouraging conclusion. ”

He lacked follow-up development funds, so he set up a steel company, intending to use the project to apply for a loan from the bank, and at the same time issue a certain percentage of shares to raise initial funds, this plan is still in the stage of private preparation, and the return is very large. ”

Klein, who has been reading newspapers a lot lately and is a "history expert", knows that there are stocks in this world, and he knows that the concept of stocks originated from Russell the Great, well, it was him again.

In the process of colonizing the southern continent, he established the West Byron Company, which raised funds from the public through the issuance of shares, successfully solved the financial problems, and successfully grabbed the first pot of gold for colonial benefits.

Because the returns are huge, since then, similar things have been done one after another, such as railroad stocks, mine stocks, steam development and utilization stocks, etc., etc., there are successes and failures, so it gave birth to organizations such as the Beckland Stock Exchange.

In addition to this, Russell the Great also came up with state bonds, trust funds, and other things, the former of which has been inherited to this day as the most stable way of investing, with returns of four to six percent per year.

Klein remembers that his brother Benson once said that if he could inherit a fortune of 3,000 pounds, he would not have to work hard, because the stable annuity income would be about five percent, about 150 pounds, which was slightly equal to Klein's current annual salary.

This is the so-called rentier...... Crane sighed and asked:

"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with this?"

"I've seen his estate papers and exploration reports, which have the seal of the West Villas County Council and the endorsement of a professional firm, and Mr. Lanreus's office has a picture of him with Sir de Ville and Mr. Mayor. Glacis nodded in reply.

A group photo doesn't mean anything...... Born in the age of the Big Bang, Klein had seen too many similar things and was not convinced by it.

However, it was useless for him to believe it or not, so he could only pick up the pen and draw the corresponding astrolabe according to the key time information provided by Glacis.

After a long time, Klein pointed to the "astrolabe" and said:

"You yourself should be able to see that this thing will not go well, and under the superficial prosperity is a cliff and an abyss, and my divination advice is to bypass it and avoid it. ”

"......" Glacis fell silent, his mouth opening several times, and then closing again.

After a few minutes, he smiled bitterly:

"When I get home, I'll think about it seriously. ”

Hearing such an answer, Klein could only shake his head and sigh, realizing the helplessness that a "soothsayer" should have:

The "soothsayer" can only give advice, not make decisions for others.

As soon as the two of them left the citrine room, Angelica came over and said:

"Mr. Moretti, someone is looking for you for divination. ”

Speaking of which, she added in a whisper:

"He didn't ask me to recommend it, and he didn't look at the album. ”

Word of fame has spread?, Crane turned to the reception hall in confusion.
