Chapter 259: Deception
"And if you do a good job, I will consider continuing to give you a salary increase. When I make money, we make money together. Black businessmen are all about making money. Isn't this just a large piggy bank? If I die one day, my The money is all yours..."
Riya spread her hands and kept explaining the bright and happy future to James. James was gradually moved by his words and decided to agree to Riya's previous request.
At this time, the young man nodded with satisfaction. He estimated that James would be too lazy to manage this place, and would instead choose to use the salary he gave to find people who were willing to work at lower wages to work here.
Anyway, there are not a few people in this world who are willing to work for money, even working overtime and around the clock.
Even big cities are indispensable for poor people. Riya can't control this, so he can only let it go for the time being.
A few hours later, Riya had already handed over the corresponding things, and the students also came here to play. He pointed at the fat doctor behind him and told them to get along well, then turned and left.
Next up, the youth destination is Nord Adling.
North Adelin is a city near the sea with a very developed aquaculture industry. It is undoubtedly a good place for trade.
Just thinking about aquatic products, Riya couldn't help but think of the foul-smelling and slimy fishmen he had seen in Grani before. These things were too disgusting and disturbing, and he sincerely hoped that he would not encounter them again this time. .
"I heard that the Goti Sea is very beautiful. At night, you can occasionally hear mermaids sitting on the rocks singing... Are you sure it is a mermaid and not a fishman? Is it a human body with a fish tail or a fish head and a human body?"
"Or a fish-headed human head!?"
The young man went to the station to wait for the train to North Adling, while James was left in the detective agency to collect the money.
Little Shivall is still sleeping. He is in a daze and will wake up when called, but he will fall asleep again soon.
When Riya sat in the carriage on the train to Nord Adelin, it opened an eye on Riya's face in a daze, then got out and lay down on the unoccupied seat next to it and continued to sleep.
Riya ordered some food, but even when she placed the plate in front of little Shivar, it didn't respond. Only then did Riya realize that the problem was far more serious than she thought.
He knew that there was nothing to worry about little Shival, but he could not help but worry about its safety. This mentality was probably similar to that of a cat at home that usually eats and drinks all the time and suddenly one day becomes languid and refuses to eat anything.
Or a child who has always loved to play and run around suddenly stands in front of his parents and says he is depressed.
"Woo————"
The train moved, making a long buzzing sound. Through the window, Ria saw the buildings in South Adelin receding, and many familiar buildings soon disappeared from sight.
The train will pass through the Mandela Bridge on the Gotawil Canal and then reach its destination.
It is worth mentioning that the Gotavill Canal connects Lake Ega. Riya has always believed that there are hidden secrets in that water, but no abnormalities have been found so far.
In the lake under the nose of the Epidemic Medical Branch, even if there are big problems, they will probably be solved quickly, leaving only some small fish and shrimps for the investigators to evaluate their performance.
"But why did they choose the location that directly faces Lake Ega? The gate is also facing the suspension bridge on the lake. Am I overthinking it?"
Just as Riya was wondering, the passenger sitting at the table next to him suddenly looked over. After looking at Riya several times, the man hesitated: "Are you going to attend the tea party?" "
"The same to you?"
"We are the only ones leaving for Nord Adelin at this time. Normally not many people would board the train to Nord Adelin."
The man's blond hair is braided and rests on one shoulder. He has green eyes and green robes. There is a pointed hat and a baggage on the table.
Judging from the appearance, it is difficult to immediately determine the gender of this person. He looks like a man, but his facial features are too soft and not aggressive, which makes people doubt that he is a woman.
But Riya could still hear a distinctly male voice when he opened his mouth, and it was obvious that this was indeed a man.
Maybe this person is a witch meme who went to a tea party, and the item placed in the bag may be the legendary witch costume.
Now this person has not put them on, maybe he is still concerned about his external image.
But Riad said that this person looked more like a magician who would live in seclusion in the forest than a witch.
"Your Excellency, just call me Melphas. To be honest, I didn't expect to meet the same kind of people so soon."
"Same kind? I'm not."
Ria guessed that the other party might have mistaken her for a witch, and immediately defended herself, but the other party smiled: "Maybe I guessed wrong, but your appearance is so outstanding, which is very rare among the entire group of disordered people. "
Riya knew that the other party obviously didn't believe it and was still trying to smooth things over for her. She was a little speechless at the brain circuits of these witch meme people.
But now is also a good opportunity to make some extra money.
He looked at the other party and took out the extraordinary biological bone powder he had prepared: "Have you ever heard of a product? As long as you apply it on your face, your skin will become smoother and more delicate. It is a gift that many nobles ask for. ”
"No one can resist its temptation, my friend. It was hard for me to get this thing. The stock is limited. Originally, a bottle cost thirty silver coins, but now we feel like old friends at first sight, and I sincerely regard you as my friend.
In this way, I won't charge you thirty silver coins, nor twenty silver coins, my friend - for three silver coins, you can get two bottles of this stuff. You can test the effect on the spot. If it doesn't work, you can kill me on the spot. "
"What is this?" Melfas raised his eyebrows, and then watched Leah throw the bottle in his arms to him.
"You should be a newly acquired witch meme, not yet proficient, and not open enough... Things like skin can easily become aged. With the potion in the bottle, you can stay young forever."
As he spoke, Melfas's eyes gradually changed. He paid Leah, and in the process of paying, he said: "You are not a black marketeer, you won't cheat me, right?"
"No, I swear to the Sun of Glory in the name of the most sincere believer."
"That's not necessary. "
As he said this, Melface opened the bottle and saw a pile of white gel inside.
He hesitated and used his fingers to rub the stuff on the back of his hand. After a while, he found that the back of his hand had indeed become a little whiter and extremely smooth.
Immediately, Melface grasped his hand with great joy: "Do you have more stuff like this? I want all of it, no matter how many you have."
"But, I want to bring these things to share at the tea party."
Riya was immediately embarrassed.
