Chapter 45: The Exploitation of the Elves

On the new day, Heshia was still wearing a black and white maid's dress, busy in the shop, and now she was able to complete some tasks more skillfully than she was young and ignorant at the beginning.

After noon, the bar where she was a little more relaxed, and it was her turn to take a lunch break.

"Then I'll go and rest first, Sister Xi'er." The girl looked at the maid who was still concentrating on the tea in the bar, and spoke.

'Seere': The 70th Demon God among King Solomon's 72 Pillar Demon Gods, a noble son, commanding 26 legions, and under the control of the King of the East. The main body is a handsome man riding a winged flying horse.

She knew that this 'Xi'er' senior, if she was immersed in the tea mixture, if she didn't speak, she might have to wait for half an hour before the other party would react.

"Oh, 'Daindian' is back, I'm sorry I didn't notice, well, you go and rest first, I'll get it next."

The maid looks like she is in her 20s, with thick shoulder-length black hair, hairpins in the shape of green leaves around her ears, and green trims in her black and white maid outfit.

The bar where she is located is mainly tea and dim sum, and Xi'er itself is also good at blending many oriental teas, from the common green tea, black tea, flower tea, black tea, and even herbal tea.

Hehia has been by her side for the past few days, mainly helping to prepare ingredients and help make cookies and snacks.

"That's right, 'Daintellen'." As Heshia was about to leave, the other man stopped her again.

"This is for you, you probably won't be able to eat properly at noon, eat some biscuits." She handed over a small cardboard box with freshly made homemade biscuits.

T4 grade 'Cranberry Berry Biscuit' (excellent), made of special king strawberry, emerald berry jam, dawn flour, has a better sense of satiety, can supplement part of the nutrition, the advantage is that it is peaceful and not stimulating, soothes anxiety, and a trace amount of stable and extraordinary core, suitable for all kinds of people and various situations. (Loved by people who don't want to gain weight, anorexia, and poor taste)

"This ......"

Hesia hesitated slightly, although it didn't matter if they used some of the food and drinks in the store occasionally, but those were generally T5-level ingredients, and if they were T4-level, they wouldn't be so casual, just like 'Florus' used to invite her own set meal, and the cost of raw materials was deducted from her own bonus.

"It's okay, these are necessary losses, and we usually deal with them ourselves." Seeing her hesitate, 'Xi'er smiled, and shoved the box into Hesia's hand.

"I make about 30 confectionery biscuits a day, and about 1-2 of them are not of excellent quality, so they are not given to customers, and they are usually handled by myself."

"Can't you sell it at a discount?" The girl was curious, although 'Xi'er' said that the quality was not good enough, but this was only compared to her usual level, if she took it outside, this box of biscuits would be at least a few hundred federal coins.

"No, even if you eat it, you can't sell it at a discount, either give it to other maids as a benefit, or throw it in the trash." 'Xi'er' recalls the manager's confession.

"The manager said that if it is sold at a discount, it will lower the grade of the store, giving people a feeling of poverty and sourness, and the reason why we can maintain such a high premium is to create a good atmosphere and reputation, which is completely irreparable by the profit of selling at a discount."

"That's it......" Hehia took the small box of biscuits, bowed her head in thanks, and waved goodbye to Xi'er.

Looking at the back of the girl leaving, 'Xi'er' muttered to herself.

"It's been almost a month since Daintrian came to the store, and it should be time to open her own bar."

In the afternoon, Hesia continued her previous violin practice, but today she was still familiar with the violin playing, and she had to learn from Andesia many details and twists in the score.

As time passed, 'Andesia' would occasionally take over the violin and give a demonstration to Hesia, and unlike the usual image of a stable and mature person, after holding the violin, 'Andesia' was like a swan with its head up, and it had a sudden glow of beauty, as if standing in a popular opera house and performing as a well-known performer.

Seeing that 'Andesia' was so immersed in the music, Hehia also forgot that she had to learn the techniques and beats, and it took a while for 'Andesia' to finish playing before she reacted.

Seeing the girl's stunned appearance, Andicia felt a little cute and funny, so she had to slowly re-demonstrate it again, but this time it was not as continuous as before, and every time the girl saw it clearly, she would move on to the next step.

"It's been a long time since I've played the piano like this, and I can't help it today." Towards the end of the lunch break, Heshia put away her violin and spoke to 'Andesia'.

"Was Sister 'Antiesia' a former professional violinist?"

"I used to do it for a while, but I played the cello more often than not, and that was about 20 years ago." Anthesia recalled.

"Wait, 20 years ago?" The girl's eyes widened.

"Yes, Belfinger didn't tell you, I'm an elf." She chatted a little about the blonde hair on the side of her ear, revealing her long, narrow ear.

"Elves have a different lifespan than humans, about three times that of humans, and now I am equivalent to 27 years old."

"It's really a big sister...... Heshia estimated Andesia's age in her heart, but the other party noticed it, and then knocked the girl on the head.

"Don't use a human point of view, I'm still young."

"Okay, Sister Andesia." The girl apologized for her rude thoughts, and then asked curiously about many things about the elves in 'Andesia'.

"There are very few elves in the jade skirt at the moment, so where have most of them gone?"

"Most of them have moved to the central star field, and some of them prefer to be clean to explore the remote star fields." The elf blonde big sister recalled.

"My grandfather's grandfather was one of the first to come to the Emerald Skirt, when they used purple-red microorganisms to absorb and purify the sulfide that permeated the planet, and then began to spread and create a lot of algae until the sea slowly turned blue."

"The abundance of oxygen oxidizes many of the active substances on the planet, and then the ozone layer is slowly formed, and then the plants are planted, which is not smooth at first, because the surface is mostly rocky, and then it is slowly eroded by vegetation, and then the first soil is created."

"By the time grandpa's grandfather completed the project, he had gone through most of his life, which took about 180 years, but in the end he was also happy, because he witnessed the birth of a verdant planet, and finally he and his colleagues named this planet 'Emerald Skirt' because of the sloping continental forests and fields, which are as beautiful as a skirt and distributed in layers."

Probably only elves have the patience and perseverance to transform a barren planet, and the short lifespan of humans makes it difficult for them to settle down and stick to something.

Even if the current federation, the development of some remote planets, is still dominated by the elves, it is no wonder that their number is very small, but their influence in the federation has always been great.
