Chapter 44 Gulliver's Circus
The silver-gray liquid swayed left and right in the thumb-sized medicine bottle. The needle tip pierced into the rubber inner lid on the top, and took a portion of the liquid to a metal lucky roulette on the low table.
Compared to the lucky roulette commonly used in taverns, its style is obviously more refined, with each compartment separated by brass plates about 1 inch tall. Interestingly, these separated plates are blank, not only without handwriting, but not even the simplest drawings.
The silver-gray liquid just extracted from the vial is injected into the depression in the middle of the wheel, and then slowly begins to rotate around the depression without any external force.
Someone sat cross-legged next to the low table, his hands crossed, and the ball of silver-gray liquid spread out into each section.
The next second, these blank intervals began to change, half of which were dyed blood red by liquid, and the other half was light green.
"Blood-red, this means that we will usher in battle, killing, and blood in Renas... Judging from the goals we are looking for now, the other party has probably arrived in Renas City. As for this light green, it undoubtedly means companions, help, and hope... we should be able to get help, and judging from the changes in nearly half of the color, our helpers are not weak."
A crisp voice came from the mouth of the owner of his hands above the roulette, and he turned his eyes to the other two beside him.
"During the performance, the enemy is not simple this time. There are many places in East Delta County attacked by him. He does not seem to be simply trying to satisfy his evil desires, but looking for something... I have asked the leader of the circus just now that they will leave East Delta County after the performance in Renas this time, so we must stop the target in Renas and find a way to get the information we need!"
This time the voice of his speech seemed a little old, but while he was speaking, the other two remained silent, without any intention of disturbing him.
"Do you need to remind the local government? The divination just now shows that there will be a fight this time. If there is no prior notice, I am worried that the strange bureau will come out to make trouble."
Although Renas is a non-faith district, major areas in the Ryan Empire are vigilant against foreigners, especially in the event of unexpected unrest.
"No, I can't say that before I came, I heard from the circus people that the mayor of Renas was a descendant of a noble with a corrupt character, and it would lead to an accident if he notified him."
The man left turned around and opened a leather backpack and continued,
"This matter is finalized, you should have time next, right?"
"Of course, I've guessed what you want us to do...it's really a difficult task."
"Does I look like something happen? Since I have free access to their fleet, I have to pay off. I know very well about this."
"That's good, I'll leave these things to you!"
A stack of colorful paper pieces the size of a palm were slapped on the table, and then divided into three stacks and placed in front of the three.
The man on the left took out a toy stag hat made of velvet cloth, the man on the right took out a pointed wizard cloth hat, and the man in the middle was a round frog headband.
"Hey...why are my props in this style?"
"What's wrong with young people pretending to be cute? Besides, you are pretty cute. What's the problem with the frog headband?"
The stag man grabbed a stack of small pieces of paper, pushed open the carriage door next to him, stood up, and suddenly shouted loudly,
“The Gulliver Circus is going to perform in Renas~”
"Yes, you can't let an old man like me wear such props, so let's be patient for a while."
Before he finished speaking, the old man also went out to stand on the other side of the carriage, took out a staff of the length of the forearm from his arms, and condensed several sparks out of thin air to attract the attention of passers-by.
"It turns out that it was a wrong decision to act with you..."
Putting on the frog hood helplessly, the young man put away his divination plate, took a deep breath, bowed and walked out of the carriage, stood between the two of them, threw the paper in his hand into the air, and then snapped his fingers lightly, and the paper that should have fallen directly to the ground dissipated to both sides of the street as if given life.
One of them fluttered along the wind and finally landed on the edge of a red and white tarpaulin, and finally fell swaying on the head of the store manager outside the newly renovated fruit and vegetable store.
"Gulliver Circus...hey, what a great opportunity to go and advertise the store."
Putting the card into his pocket, the store manager held a bamboo pole and tried to support the outside sunshade. Before that, he had set up two detachable fruit stalls at the door, where there were many fruits that had just been sent from a farm outside Renas this morning.
"Mr. Bernie, is the store open today?"
A woman leaned up on the street, looking at the environment inside the store,
"It's really decent than before. Look at the neat and clean wooden racks, even if you put some mud on the oily and marinated vegetables, it will only make people feel that they are fresh."
"Haha~ Of course, I spent 20p on these wooden racks to be made by my uncle. He is a famous carpenter and a real craftsman. Recently I heard that he also wanted to open his own carpenter shop, specializing in selling tables and chairs, and helping people make these special wood products. If you have any needs, you have to support them."
He held up the sunshade, put the bamboo pole in the door, picked up an apple and threw it into the lady's bamboo basket in front of him, as a reward for helping her promote. The latter nodded understandingly and left with the bamboo basket with satisfaction.
Knock~
The crisp sound of teeth opening and flesh coming from the side. The manager subconsciously turned his head and looked over and saw a young man wearing casual clothes, with a neckline open and a flowing air in the flow. He was holding his apple and gnawing.
"Sir, this is my product, I have to pay for it after eating!"
This behavior of eating a few bites without saying a word made the store manager frown.
"then!"
A golden coin was thrown at the store manager, and the young man continued,
"This is apple money. I'll ask you for information. Have you seen a beautiful woman who likes cats very much and looks like a dance-oriented woman?"
"1 gold pound... Sorry, I haven't seen anyone you mentioned, and there is really not enough coins in my store to find you change, so can you ask you to pay with a smaller denomination?"
The store manager was surprised by the customer who threw out 1 gold pound at the moment, and lowered his posture and replied carefully.
"Oh, if you don't know, it's for you."
The young man seemed to care about the gold pound at all and turned around and left.
"This, this...1 gold pound!"
The store manager held golden coins in both hands. He never thought that he would receive such a huge sum of money one day.
However, just as he was in ecstasy, the originally cold and hard touch of the coins in his hand began to become sticky. In the blink of an eye, the golden pound disappeared, and a colorful python appeared in his hand. Before the store manager could come to his senses, he was wrapped around his neck by a giant python in his hand.
"Save me! Save me!"
The store manager, who was entangled by the giant python, barely called for help with a completely distorted voice.
But the pedestrians passing through the street heard the strange situation here and saw a cold corpse holding the core in their hands.
......
In the study of the Taros family villa, the conversation has come to an end. Donald's eyes remain on the content of the contract in front of him, and said to the mother and daughter next to him without raising his head: "That's the case for the time being. I need the three mining teams in your company to report to Renas in the shortest time. As for you, you only need to sit at home to collect money in the future. I will deliver the remaining 30% of the profits of the shares to you on time."
"Can I take the liberty to ask, did you find minerals near Renas?"
After about 15 minutes of negotiation, Angel Steve unexpectedly discovered that the aristocratic child who was "indiscreet" in her eyes was not as she imagined. On the contrary, after this conversation, all she could feel from the other party was calm and powerful power that could not be refused. Therefore, she quickly adjusted her state and asked.
The other party wants to recruit the company's mining team. The only possibility is that new minerals are discovered, which undoubtedly means huge business opportunities. For the sake of the Steve family, Angel knows that she must not miss this opportunity.
"Of course, otherwise what would I do if I bought your mineral company? You know, for this, I offended Viscount Philip and the East Delhi mineral tycoon... although I don't care about the two clown-like characters at all."
It is impossible to hide the matter of minerals. After all, three mineral teams entered the Howling Forest and could not be hidden, not to mention that there is a private railway station over there being built.
"I want to participate in your mineral program and become your partner... For this reason, I can share all the connections and sales channels in minerals accumulated by the Steve family in recent years with you!"
Angie's statement was also quite straightforward when she was Donald's straightforward. She knew clearly that the resources in her hands were dispensable in the eyes of the other party, but it was always easier to use things that could be used for free than to spend less time preparing for them, right?
In order to be the partner, Angel is even willing to give up the benefits of her cooperation and only take the part she deserves, because what the Steve family needs now is strong protection, otherwise no matter how much savings you have, it will be just a wedding dress for others.
"It seems that Mrs. Steve is very sincere. Since that's the case... I agree to your request. You can talk to my housekeeper about the details of the next one."
Halfway through Donald's words, he seemed to notice something, his face suddenly became gloomy. After finishing the topic quickly, he got up and walked out, leaving only the mother and daughter looking at each other.
Anthony and Stephanie, who were discussing plans in the garden, found Donald frowning and walking out quickly, and immediately came forward to inquire about the situation.
"Someone destroyed my statue on Renas Central Avenue...seeking death!"
