Chapter 204: Being sold and counting the money for someone
“Ah~!!” Alice yawned loudly and got up from the bed: “I feel so sleepy and comfortable.” The windows were foggy I couldn't see clearly outside, but it looked like it wasn't daylight yet.
Alice jumped out of bed and then remembered that Bing Zhixie and Ishu Sen might not have gotten up yet. Then she quietly ran outside the small bedroom and peeked through the crack in the door. Bing Zhixie Xie is still sleeping lightly. Alice thought: "What a good opportunity, go out and play for a while now, and come back soon."
As expected, the sky is not bright yet, and you can even see the stars. The streets are deserted, but there is no one alone. None. Several shops opened their doors early, and the colorful crystal lamps lit up the shops, making the shops colorful but not ambiguous. However, this kind of scene is no longer strange to Alice. People who come from the small village may be surprised. She comes from the Demon Moon Imperial City, which is the most prosperous city in the world.
Walking under the street lights and looking left and right, I happened to pass by a clothing store that happened to be open.
"It's so beautiful." Alice lay lying outside the window, looking at a scarf behind the glass window. She originally wore a scarf, but she lost it in the forest and snow.
A person came out of the store, stretched out, was chilled by the cold air, and immediately felt refreshed. He saw Alice next to him: "The little girl got up so early."
"Ah? Well." Alice pointed to the scarf in the window: "You are the store owner, right? Do you sell this?"
The shop owner smiled: "I run a shop, why do I keep things if I don't sell them? That ferret fur scarf, if you want it, I'll sell it to you for ten gold coins."
" Ten gold coins." Alice didn't have much idea of money and didn't know if it was expensive or cheap. She liked it and wanted to buy it. He touched his body, took out a small wallet from his pocket, selected a black crystal coin that he didn't like and gave it to him: "I bought it."
"Magic crystal coins, the little girl is quite rich. Come in, I will give you the change."
Across the street, a young man with yellow hair carrying a big black bag saw Alice giving money. and her pocket, with a smile on her face Rong: "Oh, I met a fat sheep as soon as I went out."
Alice took this pack of magic crystal coins from King Sauron's treasure chest, and there were exactly fifty of them. A genuine second-level elemental magic crystal is worth a hundred gold coins.
The store owner didn’t take the scarf in the window, but a new one. While putting it on for her, he said: "The fur goods I have here are all the best furs. Just take it. This scarf, made of the finest ferret, has three sets of magic embedded in it. The array can hold three fire crystals. You can choose magic arrays with different powers according to your situation to ensure that you will be warm no matter where you are."
Alice nodded repeatedly. As soon as he finished wrapping it, he grabbed it and surrounded it himself. This made the store owner depressed for a long time, thinking to himself, if you had told me earlier, I would not cover it.
"Do you want anything else?" The shop owner took the ninety gold coins and was reluctant to give them to him: "Your clothes don't match this scarf and look a bit thin. If you want to fight, I have a tight-fitting fur suit here, which can be worn easily It’s warm and doesn’t affect movement.”
“Okay, how much does it cost?” Alice rarely buys things, so she just asks the price without first looking at the product.
"Five...ninety gold coins." The shop owner looked at the girl and exaggerated the price: "Look at what a coincidence, it is exactly ninety gold coins."
Love Liz nodded: "Yeah, no need to change."
Seeing that she was so easy to deceive, the store owner had a weird idea, thinking about how to defraud her of all the money in her pocket.
"Wait a minute."
Alice was about to take over the clothes, but was stopped by someone. A young man of fifteen or sixteen years old with yellow hair and a red windbreaker came into the store, carrying a large black baggage in his hand.
“Welcome, please take a look.” The store owner greeted with a busy smile.
The yellow-haired young man said with a serious face: "I'm not here to buy anything. Little girl, is this dress what you want to buy?"
"Yes, what?"
The yellow-haired young man asked: "How much?"
"Nine...ninety gold coins."
The store owner's face darkened: "None of your business! If you don't want to buy anything, go out Get out..."
The yellow-haired young man fiddled with his clothes and said: "You defrauded a little girl of her money, how dare you drive her out so confidently?"
"You..."
The yellow-haired young man took the fur in Alice's hand and threw it on the counter: "This dress costs ninety gold coins? It's not even worth fifty gold coins."
Alice was angry. : "Okay, you lied to me, how dare you cheat my money! I won't buy it, give me your money back." He was so angry that he even took off the scarf around his neck.
"No...no." The store owner said hurriedly: "Don't listen to his nonsense. He is not a clothes seller, how can he know the value of these clothes."
The yellow-haired young man Said: "Don't I know? Do you want me to call the neighbor who is doing fur business and confront him?"
The store owner was speechless at once, and his face turned as red as a pig's liver. Same.
"Huh, pay me back!" Alice pulled out the dagger from her waist and shouted: "If you dare not pay back the money, I will demolish your shop!" The shop owner had no choice but to pay back the money and watched Alice leave. He said harshly: "Where did this hateful guy come from?"
Alice put the dark element crystal into her pocket and put it away again: "Thank you, if it weren't for you I would have been deceived by a big profiteer."
"Ah, it doesn't matter." Huang Fa The young man took out a small card and said, "My name is Hullington. This is my first name." "
Alice took his ID card and said: "The youngest master of alchemy in history, an outstanding alchemist of the Alchemy Guild, one of the top ten outstanding young people in the XXX country, and the best in the mainland in 7400 years. Promising Youth Award, 7401 Proposed the "New Formula Theory of Alchemy", which caused a huge sensation in the academic world, and was nominated for the Best Academic Theory Award of the year. He is currently an academician of the Alchemy Research Association, an alchemy instructor at XXX College, and the chief alchemist of XXX City..."< br>
"Wow, that's amazing, that's amazing. I can't tell you are still such an amazing person!" Alice exclaimed over and over again.
Hughington adjusted his windbreaker, put on a handsome appearance, and said with a deep look: "It's nothing, I just don't want to be too high-profile. In fact, I am still in the 'God Realm' Winner of the title of Alchemist."
"God... Alchemist of the Divine Realm! So handsome, so awesome!" Alice knew that this title really existed in the alchemy world, and she took it for granted. , only for the top alchemy masters.
Hughington said: "Okay, I have something else to do. Let's go first. Don't be fooled again."
"Wait a minute." Alice hurriedly grabbed him, Looking at the black package in his hand, I heard the sound of gold objects intersecting inside: "What is in this?"
Hurlington said: "They are all weapons I forged, the kind that are not up to standard. Alchemy is also a very difficult thing. To refine the best materials and make them into weapons, even the slightest error is not enough."
"Yeah." Alice nodded. , looked at the package curiously: "Can you show it to me?"
"How can this be possible?" Hullington said: "You must know that some powerful alchemists can learn from a handful of The secret of alchemy can be seen in weapons, especially when weapons are lost. How can I just show you a failed product and a semi-finished product?"
Alice was quite disappointed: "That's right."
Hughington hesitated for a while: "Okay, look. We are destined, and speaking of it, I am really There is a short sword, which is not considered a failure. Although it is not as good as the top weapons in "Hundred Weapons Detailed Explanation", it can still be ranked among them. It is a pity to get rid of it and refining it. I might as well give it to you.”
"Wow, so awesome~! Okay, okay." Alice touched it happily.
Hughington said: "Let's go to Snow White Park. I will try the power of the sword to show you."
When they arrived at Snow White Park, Hughington looked around and saw that there was nothing there. The man squatted down and took out a short sword from his bag, but secretly buried something in the snow behind the bag.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful.” Alice held the dagger, which was engraved with patterns of various colors.
Hughington took the dagger and said: "Let's stand a little further away and I'll try it for you so that you can see its power."
After hiding ten meters away, I saw Hullington flicking his hand, and a colorful light hit the snow, making a deafening roar, and a large area of the snow was exploded.
Alice exclaimed in surprise: "It's so strong. You just flick it lightly, and it's so powerful."
"It's awesome." Hullington sighed: "What a pity. , It’s just a semi-finished product. Selling it will damage my status as a ‘divine alchemist’. So, I’ll give it to you. Don’t tell others that I made it.”
“Yeah. , I won’t say it.” Alice was extremely envious.
Hughington looked at the sword with a look of great reluctance: "I reluctantly gave it to you because I am destined to be with you. I don't even know how many thousands of gold coins were spent on the materials of this sword. Although it is Send, but the cost..."
Alice quickly took out her small pocket and said: "I don't have much here. I only have fifty magic crystal coins. It's not enough." It's rare to meet such a good girl like you. I gave it to you because of your personality. If someone wants to buy it, I won't sell it for 100,000 gold coins." Hullington took the wallet and accepted it without any ceremony. .
"Thank you, thank you." Alice bowed her thanks repeatedly, pulled out the dagger and wanted to test its power again.
Hughington hurriedly stopped him: "Don't try again. It's so early in the morning and you want to keep others awake."
"Yes."
"The magic sword must be used when it is most dangerous. If you take it out casually and play with it, won't it lose its identity?" Hullington said: "This thing must not be used casually, and if others see it, they will take advantage of it. "
Alice felt that what he said was very reasonable: "You are so kind. Not only did you give me this good sword, but you also reminded me to be careful of bad people. You are so kind. People."
Hughington laughed: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I have something very important to do. If I don't leave, it will be too late. "
"Well, bye." Alice waved to him to see him off, looked at the dagger in her hand and said happily: "What a good man." She threw away the scrap metal at her waist.
