Chapter 25 Earning one-tenth of the annual income of France
Sophie didn't sleep all night.
It's not that I'm worried about whether Wang Quan can handle it, but that I'm acting coquettishly with Kesila.
In the master bedroom, on the nearly three-meter-long and three-meter-wide princess bed, Sophie, wearing pajamas and an eyepatch on her head, hugged the doll and begged, "Xila, can I really not come with you?"
"No." Xila refused directly.
She touched Sophie's little head and said, "Everyone has their own life. I have my own things to do, and you also have yours."
Sophie was not convinced, "Then why can that boy Infino do it? And why can he be your disciple!"
"You are different." Kesela still had a smiling expression on her face, but her words were very cold, "Infino means something different to me, whether it is you or Elizabeth, or anyone else,
You are all my friends, but only Infino is my hope and my future."
"Ugh..." Sophie bit her lower lip, tears welling up in her eyes, "What's so different about him?"
Kesila did not answer directly, but asked: "What kind of person do you think Infino is?"
"A boy who has some skills but is a bad guy." Sophie looked unhappy, "He sometimes shows unusual maturity..."
She asked what she had always wanted to ask, "Is he just like me, only he looks like a child?"
"That's not important." Kesila's eyes narrowed slightly, "To me, you are all children."
"I still want to know what's different about him." Sophie was dissatisfied with Kesila's way of changing the subject.
"Didn't I say that he is my future and my hope. That is something only he can do."
The smile in Xila's eyes gradually faded, "Don't talk about Infino anymore, or I will be angry."
Sophie shuddered, and her fingers holding the puppet turned white with strength.
But she really didn't ask any further questions.
The first one is that there is no point in asking about things that Kesiela doesn’t want to talk about.
The other one is just scared.
Yes, she respected Ksheela, but she was also very afraid of Ksheela.
During these more than a hundred years, she has also quietly investigated Kesela's affairs.
Xila is the bishop of the Death God Cult, but this is just a false identity.
She was also the "Twilight Witch" who caused the "Great Extinction of Europe" more than 400 years ago.
But this identity... is actually fake.
In other words, she is the Twilight Witch, but not just the Twilight Witch.
According to the clues she investigated and the gossip she heard from other witches, Kesi La... existed a long, long time ago.
At least Lenna, the "Frost Witch" who is known to have lived the longest, once said that when she was a child, Xila was what she is now.
Even almost all witches were guided by Xila to master their own power after awakening.
Corona...that is the old witch who awakened thirteen hundred years ago.
At that time, most of the countries on the mainland were not what they are now.
There was a rumor among senior witches.
They said that Ksheela might be suspected of being the origin of all witches, that is...the original witch.
But Sophie never thought about that kind of thing.
Ksheela is Ksheela, nothing more.
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Kesila suddenly took out a pile of cardboard with patterns on it, "I learned this from Infino."
Then the corners of her mouth raised, "Come~ let's play cards~"
Sophie: "..."
............
"Hey, did you sleep well last night?"
The next morning, still in the restaurant, Wang Quan seemed to be in high spirits.
After all, he is about to buy two hundred thousand francs, and people are in high spirits on happy occasions.
Wang Quan also connected outside the venue last night to inquire about the value of the leaf franc.
According to the answer obtained by Ye Zi using a search engine, one franc is equal to one hundred centimes.
One franc is roughly equal to one point and one yuan.
But that was 2002 years ago.
After that, France used the euro.
And that was the RMB in 2002.
The franc in this world is on the gold standard, so it is very valuable anyway.
Wang Quan couldn't help but feel refreshed.
However, it seems that Sophie didn't sleep well last night. At least the dark circles and bags under her eyes were so thick that they couldn't be ignored.
Sophie glared at him before waving.
The puppet butler moved a box and placed it on the table.
"This is one hundred thousand francs, please click on it."
She didn't ask about the ending of that thing.
There's no need to ask.
Just as Kesila believed in Wang Quan, she also trusted Kesila.
Xila said that he could solve it, so Sophie believed it.
In other words, even if Wang Quan didn't solve the problem, she would give the money to Wang Quan.
In her mind, the money was not for Wang Quan, but for Kesila.
"Not enough." Wang Quan held his chin with one hand, "I remember it was 240,000."
"Not ten..."
Sophie was suddenly stunned.
Then she stood up suddenly, "Could it be...!"
"It's that 'could it be'."
Wang Quan snapped his fingers.
He was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, and the extremely pretentious door slowly rose from the ground behind him (this is also the effect he made, in fact, the original appearance mode of this door was to appear directly behind him in the void
).
Afterwards, the door slowly opened, and fourteen soul balls emitting a faint blue light flew out from inside.
These soul balls just landed in front of Sophie.
"Fourteen souls, no more than one."
As for what happens next...that has nothing to do with Wang Quan.
No! In fact, he can still generate income!
"By the way, I have a business here to help pinch people. If you need a body, I can provide it."
Wang Quan smiled and said, "I don't want much, only 80,000 per person."
Sophie pursed her lips, "Really...can it be done?"
“If it doesn’t work, you don’t need money.”
Wang Quan shrugged, "Would you like to see you anyway?"
"good!"
Sophie waved, and the puppet butler took out several more boxes.
"I will pay 100,000 for each person, totaling 53 people. Counting the previous 240,000, the total here is 5.54 million."
Wang Quan smiled and said, "Then let all your soul-carrying puppets gather at the gate of the castle."
He grabbed the boxes and threw them all through the door, then walked out of the restaurant.
5.54 million......
France's current annual national fiscal net income is only 69 million.
This is equivalent to one-tenth of the country's annual net fiscal revenue.
As expected of someone who has been a nobleman for many years and doesn't have to socialize, he has saved enough money.
Sophie didn't wait, but immediately stood up, controlled the souls and puppets, and chased Wang Quan out.
She can't wait to see her parents again.
Two hours later, a total of fifty-four people were revived.
Their souls were also stuffed into new bodies.
The body is a piece of meat created by Wang Quan using black and red mist, and the specific image was shaped by Sophie.
These fifty-four people...except for her parents, Wang Quan did not expect that she could even remember the height and appearance of all the waiters, attendants, guards, and maids.
But now they are still sleeping and will not wake up until their souls and bodies are completely matched.
This process takes about three days.
And after waking up, they may have to adapt to this environment again.
After all, more than a hundred years have passed.
Moreover, there is also the Cult of the Dead, so maybe the other party will send people to investigate.
But those have nothing to do with Wang Quan.
Looking at Sophie, who was lying on her parents' bodies like a child and crying bitterly, Wang Quan narrowed his eyes and said to Kesila who was looking at him with a smile: "Let's go, the matter here has been solved, let's go to Paris.
"
Sophie's parents are resurrected.
But what about his parents?
Even though he now has miraculous power like a "god", his parents...are no longer here.
A hand suddenly pressed on Wang Quan's head.
He raised his head and met Kesela's gentle golden-purple eyes.
"Infino, good boy, you still have a master."
Wang Quan smiled and did not answer.
All he wants now is to go to Florence to find Mochizuki Rin and then go home.
