133. Avid gambler
Robbing while the fire is not a good civilization, and deception is not a good civilization, they are all half-hearted, and there is no moral bottom line at all. There is no law that says that witches cannot claim compensation from their lying employers, and no law that says that the person on the search notice cannot get a bounty for bringing herself to a bounty.
There are many witches who use legal loopholes to defend themselves and obtain benefits, and she is just one of many witches. She's not a demon, she's not a pure witch, and she officially stepped into the gray area tonight.
"You have two choices now, the first is to kill me and shut me up. The second is to settle peacefully, to achieve the ending of winwin, I don't know which one do you prefer? ”
"Kill...... I won't do that......"
Miss Eudora is getting less and less imposing. As long as the enemy's momentum grabs his own hands, he can ensure the smooth progress of the gambling game.
Riki finally tears off the mask of the "confused high school witch" and confronts her true character, showing a worse side.
There is no need to be too gentle when you threaten your life, and being gentle with the capitalists is tantamount to being cruel to yourself.
"That's the second way. Miss Bianchi, isn't $100,000 a piece of cake for you? Witches always have to pay for their mistakes, and the lives of ordinary witches are also lives, and in the eyes of you rich people, they may only be worth tens of thousands of dollars, or thousands? No matter how much my life is worth in your eyes, today I must make it the compensation it deserves. ”
The palm of her hand slapped against the table with five points of force, and the sound was dull, and Miss Eudora's hand holding the cigarette shook again. She is now like a frightened bird, she can no longer withstand too fierce scare, and she can burst gold coins with a casual hit.
The sound of banknotes rubbing against each other and gold coins and silver ingots colliding is heard. The panicked witch is visualized as a human-type ATM, and a brand-new Shibusawa portrait banknote with a face value of 10,000 denominations keeps popping out.
Wonderful scents of ink and metal explode in the lavish palace suites, diffuse and refresh the heart.
The slender Japanese witch turned into a fanatical gambler at the moment, and was contaminated with some of Flotin's smoke and dust, which made the atmosphere take a sharp turn. Two pairs of eyes sparked in mid-air, ending with Miss Eudora flinching.
She shoved it several times before she put the burning half of the cigarette in her mouth, and then, as if grasping at a life-saving straw, she sucked the blue smoke into her lungs with all her might.
This witch is obviously not as vigorous as her mothers, she can hold the scene at any time, and she can't stand the scare.
"$100,000...... It's a minor issue. I poked out the basket, and I deserve to give you a reasonable response. Please don't let Miss Snowy Owl and my mother know that they will skin me and freeze all the cards in my name...... I will also hold a blind date meeting immediately, and it is a nightmare to find a strict witch to discipline me. I finally managed to escape the marriage, and I didn't want to get married again. ”
Without hesitation, Miss Eudora tore a piece from the checkbook and signed her name with a white quill. Cheques can be exchanged at any bank to ensure they are genuine.
Miss Fujinaga has also used the exact same check, and she can distinguish the real from the fake with the magic of the omniscient eye. The cheque paper has a hidden colored light, like a watermark on a banknote, which cannot be imitated by a fake.
The number 1 is followed by five zeros, which is really pleasant. The money that ordinary Japanese witches earned by working diligently for three years was exchanged for her life. Although the cost is high, it is easy to put yourself in, and the final result is quite happy.
10 million yen of books are given away, and 14 million is not much worse, and in the eyes of the rich woman and witch, it is a number of dollars that can be spent in an instant.
"Is that enough?"
Miss Eudora did not put the quill away, and she was still apprehensive, and looked tentatively at the smiling Rydhy. She found that the simple and kind little white sheep in her heart went to the deep sea, and she completely changed as a person.
Was it the environment of the deep sea that influenced a witch, or was it just her nature?
She didn't know, and she didn't dare ask.
"To be honest, that's not enough."
Richie put the check away and downloaded a document from the unreadable chat window. Inside was a list of alchemical materials, made and revised by Feng Buyue herself, and the list contained 50 alchemical materials that she considered necessary.
If you can't collect it all in Japan, you have to go to the material stores in several countries to buy it, which is time-consuming and laborious, and it is better to have other witches do it for you. The materials marked in red text are rare materials, and by the way, the countries where you can buy them are marked in parentheses, and they are all a little far away from Japan.
It is the most cost-effective to go to the origin of the material to buy, there are no transportation costs, taxes and the difference in the price charged by the merchant of the potion material, wring out every water, and in the process of collecting, you can not only travel, but also save money.
It takes a lot of time to collect them one by one, so it's better to throw them to the person who is best suited to do it. She had been on a diving mission for the sake of the materials from the beginning, and now she is going around and back to where she is, saving her a lot of trouble.
"I have a 'little request' that won't be too difficult for you. The material on this document is a bit difficult to collect, but it is relatively difficult for me. Miss Bianchi only needs one word, and the people below will do everything for you in the shortest possible time. You nod your head in agreement, pay me a new staff, and answer me a question, and what happened tonight will be treated as if it never happened. ”
Her demands are caught between greed and simplicity, and they belong to a level that makes people feel painless.
After listening in silence, Miss Eudora's tense nerves gradually relaxed. There is a company under her name that specializes in the export of alchemy materials, and the materials on the list are at most 10,000 dollars, which is not as much as the money she spent to buy the empty island and give it to other witches.
Snow Owl once bluntly said that it would cost him more than $5 million to train a feather who could take charge of himself, a huge number that made countless witches smack, I don't know if it was a boast or a real thing, it was better to kill her if she really wanted to lose so much money.
The witch wiped the sweat from her face with a handkerchief messed up in her pocket and lit a second cigarette for herself. The spicy smoke suppressed the restless mood, and she got a few decompositions.
Miss Eudora even suspects that she has been jumped by the immortals, and the snow owl's financial chain is in trouble, so she has to ask her feather to "reasonably demand" the employer's funds.
If that's the case, $100,000 won't solve the problem, and two zeros will have to be added to it.
Looking at Ruiji's innocent eyes without a trace of impurities, and without the will to move an inch, he continued to ask her for expensive items and more money, only to realize that the matter was almost settled.
It corresponds to the famous words of a certain capitalist witch - there is basically nothing in the world that money can't solve, and if there is, it is that money is not spent enough.
Flicking the ash into the ashtray and picking up the red wine at hand, Miss Eudora had already adjusted her mind and regained a little self-confidence. The first few troubles were also settled with money, and money is indeed a good thing, she must admit.
"Leave the materials to me, and I will order someone to prepare them for you, and the wood is up to you. At last...... Your question? ”
"What would interest the Witch of the Depths?"
Richie remembers the only reward that the Witch of the Deep demanded to save her life. It's hard to read the minds of land witches who haven't been in contact with the witches of the depths, but Miss Eudora has been in contact with them, and it's worth asking.
"Something of interest...... Money? ”
"It's so vulgar."
"Beautiful clothes and jewelry? Gold and diamonds? ”
"No way, she's not a money-hungry witch."
"Is that what you want? The Witches of the Deep have one of the great characteristics of being particularly interested in the bodies of land witches, and are curious about the difference between us and them. ”
"Possibly, but she didn't say, not sure if it was."
The image of the unnamed witch of the deep sea hiding in the sea with half a fritter flashed in front of him. She lacked a magic item to carry around at will, so she didn't have anything on hand, and the moonstone necklace around the neck of her friend Azuma was just what she needed.
Every witch should have a portable storage space, the storage space is not limited by geography, no matter where the witch goes, she will follow along, and the pendant with storage space should be an item that can impress the witch of the deep sea.
If she can't, ask her what she wants.
"Is there a storage pendant based on blue gemstones? Be larger. ”
"A lot."
"Please find me one, trouble, no, three, my sister and I need it too. That's all there is to it, and if there is no objection, I hope to get it in the morning. ”
"No problem, get ready right away. How about you go back to your room and get some rest, and then return to Tokyo this evening? ”
The storage space pendant is another thing that can be easily handled. All the expenses added up to a small loss of 1230,000 dollars, which is much more modest than the horrific figure of five million.
"As you say. I've got somewhere to go, good night. ”
Before leaving, Ryji contributed the gentlest smile of the night. Miss Eudora was furious at her, her toes curled, and she picked up a piece of the neatly laid carpet.
The rich second-generation witch, who has always been smooth, never thought that she would be suppressed by high school students and completely defeated in terms of negotiation ability.
Recognizing her own inadequacy, she suddenly felt a little pathetic.
"It's worthy of the girl that the snow owl fancy, and her eyes don't bear any resemblance to ordinary high school witches."
……
After completing the negotiations, what Ruiji wanted to do most was to exchange the cheque and deposit the money into her newly opened secret account. On the way to the bank, she made a phone call to Feng Buyue to briefly describe what had happened.
He Feng Buyue will be very relieved when he speaks, and this feeling is very real.
"I don't know if this guy will honestly accept my offer, and he may have to trouble you to come from Japan. I've paid for the travel expenses, and it's hard to get through tonight without you. ”
She was desperate to see her teammates in the Alchemy Competition.
In order to thank the Silver Alliance Lord for his reward, I want to update it recently, two changes a day. Although the grades are so bad that I can't see it, there are still some readers who are silently supporting, and I will write it well.
