More than a month has passed since Maria's first time and space journey.

After that ten-year journey through time and space, Maria felt that she had gained a lot of knowledge, but the fatigue of the dislocation of time and space made her afraid to try another time and space journey easily in a short time.

[The system says that this is a very normal phenomenon: the time flow rate of the two space-time is different, and many hosts cannot handle the difference between the real and the illusory world, so they get lost in the illusory world.] So I don't recommend that the host travel through time and space too often, and in addition, there is a new product on the mall, and I think the host needs to buy one very much to relax his mind. 】

Maria hurriedly opened the mall to check out the new product - "Leisurely Holiday", as the name suggests, this is a casual mental relaxation game, it is a one-time consumer product, and then looked at the price of only 2 points, this price is not high in the mall, and clicked to buy.

The moment of clicking, a virtual room was reached, and Maria once again checked the "Leisure Holiday" scenario mode - Underwater World.

The bottom of the sea is pregnant with a wonderful variety of life, a large sea turtle weighing more than 200 pounds, a shark more than 3 meters long, a stingray with a diameter of more than 1 meter, etc., swim leisurely over her head, all strange, beautiful, make her linger, dizzying......

After leaving the underwater world and returning to the real world, Maria felt that the fatigue that had been surrounding her was finally swept away, and these 2 points of Wen Qi were worth the value of the flowers. However, she still decided to set her next time and space trip in a month, and she planned to use this month to revise and organize all the ghost stories she had written before in the local tyrant study room.

Maria wanted to officially publish her first book, not just in a newspaper.

A month later, bidding farewell to Mrs. Lucas, Maria stepped into the carriage to London in a majestic and high-spirited manner.

Dylan looked at several boxes of manuscripts on the ground, and felt his scalp tingle, he really didn't expect that little Maria had written so many ghost stories in the past fourteen years, and the boxes of manuscripts were very shocking to look at.

Dylan stubbornly asked, "Dear Maria, did you really decide to republish these ghost stories?" ”

Thinking of the evaluation of "Miss Ghost" by London's high society, Dylan only felt that the adrenaline hormone was increasing rapidly, and if it was known that the terrifying Miss Ghost was actually a fourteen-year-old girl, the faces of those sanctimonious ladies and gentlemen would be quite wonderful.

Maria didn't know that Dylan was slandering herself again in her heart, she had been dealing with William most of the time all these years, and she really couldn't guess what the elder was thinking: "Yes." Rather than buying out the copyright at once, I would be more willing to cooperate with the Flower of Thorns Publishing House, and we will take the form of shares. In the past two years, she has revised her previous creations and made new ones, and she has accumulated a lot of manuscripts.

Dylan put away his chaotic thoughts and said solemnly, "Maria, this can't be! ”

Maria nodded calmly: "Yes, I think so too, so my initial plan is to buy a publishing house." ”

Dylan heard the uncontrollable twitching of the corners of his mouth, he was wrong, he really couldn't keep up with little Maria's thoughts: "Your pounds are enough?" You must know that a publishing house that is about to go out of business also costs at least 5,000 pounds, and the operating expenses of subsequent publishing houses are even more expensive! "God, how did little Maria say this the same as buying an apple?

Maria shook her head slowly: "To be exact, I only have three thousand English copies at the moment. For the 3,000 pounds, I didn't bother to buy new jewelry for five years, and all my pocket money and manuscript fees were carefully saved. So that's just a preliminary "plan", and as Dylan said, he really can't afford a publishing house.

Dylan's eyes were very puzzled: "You want to buy a publishing house with me?" In his heart, he was amazed by Maria's ability to save money.

"Oh, dear Uncle Stoker, you are so clever that you have guessed my intentions at once, and I think that the publishing house will be able to carry it forward in your hands in the future......"

Then Maria winked playfully at Dylan and gently stirred the warm coffee: "I accidentally got a pair of exquisite oriental embroidery, and I can guarantee that this embroidery will fetch an absolute sky-high price!" ”

Dylan was immediately aroused: "Really? Can I take a look? ”

"Of course." Maria put down the spoon in her hand, turned around and carefully took out a pair of embroidery from the large box behind her, and gently unfolded it.

As the embroidery unfolded, Dylan gradually held his breath, and saw that there were seven oriental women dancing among the beautiful mountains and rivers on the embroidery about three meters away, which was as beautiful as a fairy! Dylan swore he would never have seen a more beautiful embroidery: "God, Maria, I just saw these Oriental women dancing, it's amazing!" ”

Maria nodded calmly, in fact, when she first saw this embroidery, she was not calmer than Dylan, but this did not affect her pretending in front of the other party now: "This embroidery should have adopted special embroidery methods such as light and shade, so we will have a sense of immersive wonder." ”

Dylan didn't pay any attention to Maria's words, just muttered to himself, "This is incredible••••••"

There was a sparkle in Maria's eyes, and she had learned from her father that Mr. Stoker's mother was very fond of embroidery from the East, and that the next month's birthday was the other party's birthday, and that Mr. Stoke was still asking around for suitable embroidery, so it was evident that he had not yet found a suitable one.

Appreciating the exquisite embroidery, Maria raised her chin slightly, and smirked in her heart: I don't believe you are not impressed. This exquisite embroidery was brushed out by her from the system mall, when the mall was running a special promotion, buy one get one free, and Maria really liked this embroidery, so she bought it.

In fact, there are not a few special events like this, but most of them she doesn't need, and even if she buys them, she doesn't dare to take them out at will, after all, she can't explain the origin of the things. This makes Maria inadvertently miss many opportunities to make a fortune, but after a long time, she gets used to it, and most of the time she has a pure appreciation mentality for the rare treasures in the system mall, and she has a bit of a master style of "not happy with things, not sad with yourself"!

"Uncle Stoker, are you still happy with what you see? Then please help you auction it, I'm sure you will be able to do it! ”

The obsession on Dylan's face froze suddenly: "......"
