Chapter 177

Because tomorrow is the opening day of the sky ball competition, all the work she can do has almost been completed, and the rest is a lot of heavy chores, which has nothing to do with her. In addition, Sylvie has informed her in advance that she will not come to golovito today. Therefore, on the eve of the sky ball competition, the girl has a short holiday.

However, like many people, they always expect to have a rest time when they are busy, but once they really have a rest, they don't know what to do.

Sleep in? Elena has always had a clear schedule, and even if she wanted to sleep in, the habit she developed throughout the year made it impossible for her to fall asleep.

Shopping like a normal girl? Because I had spent a lot of time with Sylvie and saran before, I didn't have any interest in running into the crowd for the time being.

After thinking about it for a long time, the girl finally decided to go to the bookstore to read a day's free knight novel

But not long after she left her room, she met saran on the way.

Walking in the crowd, the blue haired girl seems to have not paid attention to Elena's line of sight, holding a small parasol with lace on the edge, walking aimlessly through the crowd.

I don't know if it is her illusion. Elena always feels that the girl who is always full of vitality when she is with them is a little gloomy and melancholy at this time.

After hesitating for a moment, Elena still called to saran: "Miss saran!"

Originally, some absent-minded saran's expression on her face was stunned. She raised her head and looked around for a while before she found out that she was not far away from her.

"Oh, good afternoon." Although saran seemed a little surprised, she still said hello to Elena in a low voice.

"What's on your mind?"

Elena came to saran quietly and naturally, walking side by side with the girl, and asked in a tone of Indifference: "I don't think you are very interested today."

"Nothing." Saran, like a child who was angry, stubbornly refused Elena's temptation and put her face aside: "I'm not lonely because of uncle's absence."

"Er..." After being honed by shopping malls, Alina, who has been used to seeing those crafty talents, is tongue tied and doesn't know what to say.

At this time, a remark that SIVI used to say about saran immediately came to her mind.

What a fool.

But it seems a little impolite to think so.

The girl immediately drove the word "fool" out of her head and tried to find other topics: "Miss Saran, are you going to stroll around the city?"

"By the way, are you familiar with the city?" As if reminded by Elena, saran stopped and asked.

Although I don't know what saran means, out of the old attitude of serving guests, Elena also stopped and seriously replied, "it should be quite familiar. After all, I have lived in this city for many years."

"In that case, do you know where you can make a lot of money in a day?" Hearing the rare silver haired girl in plain clothes say so, saran immediately reaches out to the girl with wide almond eyes and looks at her with water.

Although saran didn't realize it, she had unconsciously activated some special magic abilities possessed by vampires. Of course, for Saran, her ability is relatively weak

"It's not so easy to make money But how much money do you have now

Perhaps because of the effect of enchantment, Eleanor, who should have been confused about it, actually began to seriously consider the issue of "making a lot of money in a day.".

Saran rummaged through her pockets and found only cage's legacy and SIVI's pocket money - five silver coins.

"Not much, but enough." Elina nodded, and while taking saran forward, she introduced to her: "there are a lot of messy places in the city of golovito, and there are many places to pawn and recycle old items. Although most rare or valuable antiques will definitely be taken away by the owner, but..."

She and saran came to a somewhat shabby house, which was like a garbage heap full of all kinds of things.

However, Alina was dismissive of the antiques that looked old. She just concentrated on digging in the old book. Finally, she gouged out a red cover. On the cover, there were some gilt words that had begun to fade. At the end of the book, illegible fancy characters were written in black paint.

Then she randomly took a few books and clamped the red books.

"How much are these books, boss?" Alina waved her book and called out to the uncle, who was lolling on the counter, with her hair all over the middle of her head turning Mediterranean.

The uncle, who had a pimple on his nose, raised his eyelids and took aim at the dirty looking books in Eleanor's hands. Then he lowered his eyelids and said weakly, "you can take thirty copper."Unlike other antiques, unless it's a magic book, it doesn't sell at a very high price, so the shopkeeper is not interested in looking up the books in the hands of young girls.

After paying the money to the shopkeeper, Elena left the pawnbroker with a confused saran and came to an alley with few pedestrians.

"What's the matter? What have you done? " Saran, who didn't know what was going on from the beginning to the end, asked Elena after she left the pawnbroker.

Elena threw all the broken books except the red books into the garbage can, and then waved the red books to saran: "this book can be sold for about one to ten gold coins."

Saran blinked her eyes and looked puzzled: "can such a broken book be worth so much money?"

"This is a magic book written in secret language. Many great magicians or alchemists don't like to make their own experimental results and magic theories accessible to anyone. So they often encrypt them with some special magic after recording. Although even some appraisers can't distinguish them, as long as they can read them out, their value can be increased hundreds of times at once. " Elina patiently explained to Saran, "although the total number of such books is not large, many libraries can sigh with regret over the years in many pawnshops in golovito. If you look carefully, it is possible to find such books. This is what many appraisers call Taobao

"Oh, oh, so it is!" Saran's face immediately became very clear. She patted her flat chest and said confidently, "you wait for me here!" With that, she trotted with her umbrella and disappeared into the sight of Elena.

Before long, she came back with a pile of books.

"Look how much these books are worth!" Putting the pile of books on the floor, saran couldn't wait to look at Elena.

Elina could only squat down with a wry smile and look through the dusty books that were so old, and acted as a temporary appraiser to help saran identify the value of these books.

Fortunately, there are not many pedestrians in this alley. Otherwise, the appearance of two girls staring at each other with a pile of tattered ancient books will definitely attract a lot of curious eyes.

After a long time, Alina closed her last book. She rubbed her forehead and looked forward to saran with embarrassment.

"Elena, how much can these be worth?"

"Er About fifty coppers. " After thinking about it for a while, Elena decided to tell the truth.

"How could it be?! I spent five silver coins to buy these books Saran opened her eyes in disbelief and made an incredible sound.

"These books are just ordinary books. There are no magic books, not even books with collection value..."

"Although I don't deny that I may have lost my eyes, I don't think it's easy to make mistakes in this kind of easier identification," she said

"Oh, how can this be..." Saran was depressed.

This is normal Said Elina to herself.

Just now she wanted to teach saran some tips on how to distinguish a magic book. But before she said anything, the blue haired girl rushed out by herself. If she could find the magic book, it would be unscientific

All in all, they had to sell the books to the pawnbroker for three silver coins and continue to consider ways to make money.

"By the way, Miss Saran, you are staying at the Catherine Hotel, aren't you?" Elena suddenly remembered that when Sylvia and she had sent saran back, it seemed that they were going to the Catherine Hotel.

"Yes." Saran nodded and confirmed what Eleanor had said.

"Then there will be no problem." Elena said and took saran to the Catherine Hotel.

It's the underground casino of Catherine Hotel, to be exact.

As a guest of the hotel, saran can enter the underground casinos naturally, and Elena is also famous in Roland chamber of Commerce, so she will not be blocked.

Because of the celestial ball competition, the casinos that should have been a little lonely in the daytime were also very busy at this time. As soon as they stepped into this place, the girls' ears were filled with cheers from the winners, the crying of the losers, and the sound of dice, roulette or rolling or turning.

"If it's here, you can win a lot of money by luck even if you don't have the technology." After exchanging three silver chips, Elena demonstrated to saran.

Although Elena is not proficient in this field, when she works for the chamber of Commerce, she will inevitably encounter all kinds of social activities. There is also such a situation of meeting on the gambling table. Therefore, she still has some experience in gambling girls.

Suoha (here refers to a similar game, the same below), 21 points, landlords, dice, Russian Roulette

After Elina and saran have circled the casino, Elena's first three silver chips have now become two gold chips and twelve silver chips.She is not the kind of gambler who will put all the chips on the table as soon as she goes up. Instead, she will use some chips to test them. When she is familiar with them and has the confidence to win, she will suddenly put all the chips on her and make a big profit. Then she will immediately change to other gambling methods.

"Well, it's easy, isn't it?" After another win, Elena turned to saran and said, "although I rely on a little bit of skill, it's a bit more luck and observation."

Seeing saran who was still silent, Alina thought that the girl was afraid of losing all her money, so she said to her, "don't be afraid of losing money. If you lose, I'll lend it to you. In any case, as long as you are familiar with the way, it's not difficult to recover. If you are still afraid, I can guide you in the back

"Go back."

There was a moment's silence before saran whispered.

"Don't you try it? There is a 50% chance that Russian roulette can double the chips?" Elena asked.

"It's not the money I want." Saran shook her head and refused Elena's invitation: "I just want to buy something with my own money. I'm not interested in money of unknown origin

Although saran had been to the casinos before, and she had lost a lot of money, in fact, at that time, the girl didn't feel much about money. She just thought gambling was fun.

Elina looks at saran with the eyes of inquiry, and saran also looks back at her with clear eyes without dodging.

They looked at each other as if no one was there in the noisy surroundings.

After a while, Elena chuckled.

In this regard, saran did not know why to frown.

Elena took saran's hand and took the reluctant blue haired girl out of the casino and out of the Catherine Hotel.

At this time, Elena did not return to the ground said: "now, Luo Lan auction house is hiring temporary workers."

"What, what?" Because of her resistance to Elena's actions, saran didn't hear her clearly when she spoke.

"Luo Lan chamber of commerce is recruiting temporary handyman. The hourly salary is as high as five silver coins, but there is a lot of work to be done." "Six hours of hard work can bring you 30 silver coins," she repeated

"Well..." Saran looked at the girl with her silver hair in front of her and hesitated.

"Although thirty silver coins are not so much, you can't buy anything too luxurious, but a well-made tie, a delicate and durable quill pen, and a beautiful Dharma stick cover are also good gifts, aren't they?"

Elena looked back and gave the blue haired girl a big smile.

Why do you know that Saran's face flushed - as a high-level vampire, she still has more blood than many Vampires - and stammered, "I didn't say I was going to give uncle a gift!"

"Because your expression is so obvious." Elena suddenly felt that the girl, who was not familiar with at first, wanted to do something for others. She was really very cute: "there is no way to hide your mind."

"Ah Wu..." Shyly, saran wanted to blow a hole in the ground with blood magic.

"So, do you want to do it? The temporary handyman of Luo Lan chamber of Commerce Elena asked saran.

She still holds saran's hand. The shy appearance of the blue haired girl makes Elena have no doubt that if she lets go, she will run away.

Although she was still very shy, she raised her face and tried to make her expression serious: "do it! No, please let me do it! "

It may be because she is too excited. Her voice is so loud that it attracts many people's attention.

The momentum of the girl who discovered this point was not easy to mention, and then shrank again

Six hours later --

"today is really troubling you." Saran walks in the street with lights on and thanks to Elena beside her.

As Elena said, the rest of the chores at the conference are very heavy. Originally, the chamber of Commerce seemed to have planned to invite more temporary workers to work together. The so-called five silver coins per hour means the total salary of those temporary workers. It was only because of the relationship proposed by Elena that Saran was finally held responsible. Of course, all the remuneration was given to saran.

But even if she has a pure blood of the royal blood of vampires, her physical strength and endurance are far more than that of most human beings, but the rest of the work is really too complicated, and saran will not be able to separate herself. Soon she found that she could not finish all the work in six hours without rest.

At this time, Alina, who was still on vacation, also changed into work clothes and began to help her. It is also because of the help of Elena, who is a two turn swordsman and has much better physical fitness than ordinary people, that Saran finally completed the work within the time limit and got rich remuneration.

"It's OK. Anyway, I didn't know what to do today. It's good to have enough exercise." "What kind of gift are you going to buy for Mr. Aldrich over this?" she asked with interest, as she drank the juice she had bought from the stall and moved her sore armEvery girl hides a heart of gossip. Even Elena can't be an exception.

"What do you think of this one?" Saran picked up a silver bracelet from a roadside stall. The main body of the bracelet is a blue pearl. Although she doesn't know what the material is, it looks crystal clear and beautiful.

"Well, this kind of thing is more suitable for girls?" Elena looked at saran who couldn't let go of the bracelet and hesitated.

"Yes, too." Saran regretfully put down her bracelet and her shoulders drooped.

Seeing the other party's lost look, Elena couldn't help but encourage her: "well, in fact, bracelets and earrings are different, but there is no rule that they must be worn by men or women, so it should be OK to buy that."

"Really! That boss, help me wrap this up! " So saran picked up a pink, more feminine bracelet and said to the stall owner.

Mr. aledek, I'm sorry.

Elena secretly apologizes to Sylvia in her heart, and begins to look forward to the expression of Sylvia when she receives this gift (to be continued.
