Chapter 21: New here (Third update, asking for a guaranteed monthly pass)
Chapter 908: New arrival (Third update, asking for a guaranteed monthly ticket)
On the top floor of an old-fashioned building without an elevator, Franca looked at the slightly musty rental house and muttered:
"The rent for this shabby house in this location is 2,200 yuan..."
This rental house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room that serves as a dining room. Each one is very narrow. The master bedroom has a balcony. The house is 30 years old and faces upward.
But even for such a rental house, Franka also used the "witch"'s "instigation" ability and her social strength to negotiate the price from the female landlord to less than 2,500, and she didn't have to deposit a deposit.
Pay three, only deposit one and pay one.
"That's enough." Jian Na is quite satisfied with her current residence.
This is much better than the place where the family lived before her mother died.
Lumian glanced at the cash in his hand and said to Franka:
"There are only three thousand left. Counting the ones you borrowed, it's less than six thousand. And we have to buy a batch of ordinary clothes. We can't go out in such a conspicuous way every day."
"It's okay." Franka, who was in a familiar environment, was no longer as worried as before. She smiled calmly and calmly, "I can borrow every APP again, and so can you. Together, it's enough to support several Ludwigs.
It’s been months, and you’re still worried that you won’t be able to make any money after such a long time?”
"Is it so easy to borrow money here?" Jenna asked in surprise.
In Trier, whether it is to go to a pawn shop to pledge items or to borrow money from a loan shark, it is not a simple matter. The things or people that must be matched still have a certain value, and just now she saw Franka just talking on her mobile phone
After a few clicks, I successfully borrowed a sum of money.
Is everyone like this, or do beautiful "witches" get special treatment?
Franka curled her lips and said:
"It's quite easy. Even the poorest people have residual value. If they really can't do it, they can still sell their organs..."
Obviously, she doesn't like the fact that online loans are too easy, but now she has to take out a bunch of small loans to support Ludwig and the entire team, so she can't say the next words.
Lumian took out the golden box returned by the "Magician" lady from the "Traveler's Bag", considered it and asked:
"Is there anyone buying gold here?"
The space contained in his "traveler's bag" has also been significantly reduced. It is currently only equivalent to a storage room, and there is no way to store too much food for Ludwig.
"Yes, but the control is very strict. Let's look back and see if there are any illegal channels." Franka has read a lot of books and has a certain understanding of gold trading.
"Illegal channels?" Lumian said thoughtfully, "Then when we look for such channels to sell gold, will they think that we are foreigners, easy to bully, and dare not call the police on such matters?
, just swallow our gold without giving any money?”
Franka glanced at Lumian:
"You want to fish again?"
"This is called giving gifts by well-intentioned people." Lumian laughed, "This kind of gangsterism, they shouldn't call the police, and it won't affect our good image of obeying the law, right?"
After a long period of daily nurturing by Aurore and Franka, and being in the corresponding environment, Lumian gradually became proficient in the use of certain words and sentences.
"Can't you find a good job?" Franka cursed with a smile.
"Work will only affect our observation of the people and things around Mr. Fool." Lumian had a good reason.
"That's not necessarily true." Franka subconsciously retorted, "If that job can help you become Mr. Fool's colleague, wouldn't it be more convenient for observation?"
"Yes..." Lumian's eyes moved from Franka's face to Jenna and Anthony, as if he was thinking about who should apply for the corresponding job.
"Speaking of which, the company Mr. Fool works for was run by Emperor Russell." Franka recalled the contents of the information. "The emperor's real name is not Huang Tao, right? According to the Major Arcana cards,
, it is occasionally the projection of the Emperor himself, but most of the time it is a dummy made by Mr. Fool in his dreams. Well, now the only possibility left is the latter one. The Emperor doesn’t know how long it will take for him to be resurrected.
Chance……"
As she spoke, Franka suddenly laughed:
"The emperor's eldest daughter, Princess Bernadette, was named Huang Beibei in Mr. Fool's dream. Haha, what a cute name. Is this Mr. Fool's sense of humor?"
"Calm down, Huang Beibei, no, Princess Bernadette often projects her consciousness in. She also seems to have an item similar to a lucky gold coin." Janna reminded Franka with a smile, she just had
See the corresponding description on the information.
At this time, Lumian had already thought clearly:
"Anthony or I will apply for the job. The Witch may be in a lot of trouble if she joins the Emperor's company, and she won't be able to keep a low profile."
Franka and Janna nodded heavily, both thinking of the emperor's wise words.
Lumian turned the topic back to gold:
“If I sell this gold box in my dream, will my gold box disappear in reality?
"If not, can you sell it again and again by leaving the dreamland and returning?"
"..." Franka, Jenna and Anthony were all speechless for a moment.
Is this the impact of Amun’s gift?
After a few seconds, Lumian said to himself:
"Probably not. Mr. Fool is a great being who is responsible for mistakes and loopholes. He will not leave such obvious problems. I suspect that selling gold in a dream is equivalent to sacrificing to him..."
"I think so too." Franka agreed.
While several people were talking, quiet and evil black flames condensed around the two "witches" and the male-looking Lumian.
These twenty or thirty black flames flew around the room, burning any insects that might be present.
Originally, Lumian could let the entire house be flooded with the black flames of the "Witch" to complete the cleanup, but now he can only perform at the level of Sequence 7.
After finishing cleaning, Franka began to teach Lumian and others how to use mobile phones, and guided Ludwig to play with children's phone watches.
Unconsciously, the sky slowly became darker.
"I'm hungry!" Ludwig's voice suddenly sounded.
Franka took her eyes off the phone, looked at the dusk sky, and sighed sincerely:
"Mobile phones are so fun..."
Time flies so fast!
The shocked Lumian, Jenna and others put away their mobile phones and went out to look for a restaurant in order to prevent Ludwig from getting too hungry and causing trouble.
They haven't even assigned who will sleep in which room.
After leaving the old community, Franka glanced at the row of shops on the roadside and said with a smile:
"According to my previous observations, this city is based on a city I once traveled to. The cooking standards of the street shops here may be higher than those of big hotels, and they are also suitable for those of us who cannot afford to go upscale.
"Let's eat here first, lest Ludwig can't wait any longer."
She was referring to a small restaurant on the left side of the community. The business was pretty good and there were several tables set up on the sidewalk.
Before going out, Lumian and others had used "Lie" ear clips to adjust their hair and eye color, and modified their faces. Although the handsome men and beauties still attracted a series of hidden or bold gazes, at least they would not look like they were
It is incompatible with the surrounding environment and looks like a foreigner at first glance.
Franka chose one of the tables on the sidewalk, held the menu, and asked with a smile:
"The specialty is spicy, can you eat it?"
"Didn't you say that the essence of spicy food is pain? Is there anything that can't be tolerated?" Lumian replied without caring at all.
Franka glanced at him provocatively, then looked at Jenna, smiled and said:
"It's not all spicy. There are sweet and sour dishes, and there are also umami dishes. For example, the two dishes I like very much, Kung Pao Chicken and Fish-flavored Pork Shreds, can be made not spicy, but the sour ones are...
The proportion of sweetness and other flavors may be different in each restaurant. You have to be lucky to find the type that best suits your taste. The two most satisfying ones I have ever eaten were once at a time-honored restaurant and the other at a fly restaurant like this one.
"The time-honored Kung Pao Chicken is flavored with lychee paste, and the chicken used is all cut from chicken legs, which is tender and smooth. The fish-flavored shredded pork in that restaurant only uses green onions cut into sections.
Vegetables, sweet, sour, salty, and pickled pepper flavors are all mixed into the juice and stir-fried together with the meat. This is different from the common method, but it is very appetizing and delicious...
"Well, should we open some bottles of beer? We rarely have a whole team dinner like this. Although I don't like bottled beer, I can still drink it..."
Ever since she introduced the mobile phone on the train, Franca has been in a state of excitement as if she were back on her home turf. She always introduces and shares endlessly, with a gleam in her eyes, like a ray of sunshine hidden inside.
Lumian didn't mind that this guy showed a warm attitude like a host and snatched away everything the captain should say. Instead, he was infected with a bit of calmness, relaxation and joy.
The summer night gets dark very late, it is already early seven o'clock, and the sky is still bright to a certain extent. The wind blowing through the tables and chairs on the roadside brings a little coolness from the restaurants and other shops, so that people eating and drinking
It became more and more lively. Some of them were talking and laughing loudly, and some were eating and playing on their mobile phones. They were not at all reserved like sitting on the sidewalk.
Jian Na observed attentively for a while and whispered to Franka:
"There's a strange sense of relaxation..."
She had seen people sitting on the roadside eating in the botanical garden and market area, but she didn't have a similar feeling.
"This is one of the past memories I miss." Franka said with bright eyes after ordering.
At this time, a girl with smooth black hair, simply tied into a ponytail, wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt, fitness shorts, and sandals, came to the door of this small restaurant and said to the busy boss:
"How long will it take to pack?"
"Xiaoxia, is it so late today?" the boss asked in a familiar tone.
Before the girl named Xia could answer, someone not far away suddenly shouted:
"Catch the thief! Catch the thief!"
A figure ran past between the tables and chairs, holding a diamond necklace tightly in his hand.
When he ran to the girl named Xia, the latter suddenly raised her foot and kicked her sideways.
Bang!
The thief was kicked several meters away and fell to the ground, wailing in pain and unable to get up for a while.
"These sisters are a bit naughty." Franka's eyes were filled with admiration.
Lumian looked at the profile of the girl named Xia and whispered:
"Is it the Shatas who shares the same apartment with Mr. Fool?"
