Find wallet
As for the matter of the lost wallet, after hearing the first sentence, I wanted to hear the next sentence. The human instinct of loving to watch the fun came out, and Elena stopped.
The shop owner shook his head and said he didn't see it. He then asked the shop assistants, and they also said they didn't see it.
The man's face became more and more gloomy. It seemed that he had lost not only his wallet, but also something more important.
"Or, you can ask a wizard to take a look, maybe he can find some clues." The shop owner suggested.
The man immediately perked up. This suggestion was very helpful: "Okay, okay, I'll go and ask for it right away."
After saying that, the man turned and ran towards the door.
Elena took a step forward and stopped him slightly: "I am a mage, do you mind if I help you?"
Mage! The man's attention instantly focused on the girl in front of him, but when he saw her appearance clearly, he hesitated for a moment.
"Miss, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but are you really a mage?" the man asked uncertainly. It was unlikely that she was a mage at such a young age.
Elena smiled: "Yes, although I am young and don't look like one, I am indeed a low-level mage."
As she said this she showed the man her mage badge.
He has a mage badge and is really a mage. Although he is a low-level mage, he is still a real mage.
The man happily asked Elena, "Ms. Mage, could you help me find my lost wallet? I'm willing to pay you, five silver coins, is that okay?"
Elena didn't know what the market value of this order was, but she didn't care about the money. What she cared about was helping others.
Helping others occasionally can also bring you inner joy.
"Okay." Elena nodded, then extended her hand to the man, "Please give me the wallet's connection, the thing that has been with the wallet the longest."
The man immediately pulled out a few copper coins from his right trouser pocket: "I just took these copper coins out of my wallet today. I put them in my pocket. Please use this."
Elena took the copper coins, walked to the counter, placed the coins one by one, then lightly swiped her finger and threw a detection spell on it.
The copper coins suddenly stood up and spun in place. After spinning for more than ten seconds, they fell down collectively, but the positions where they fell were different, forming an irregular pattern.
Elena looked at the pattern and came to an idea in her mind.
"Your wallet is here." Elena told the detection results.
This sentence was like a bomb, and everyone in the store could no longer keep quiet.
"No, I really didn't see it, let alone take it." The shop owner quickly clarified loudly, then turned around and scolded the shop assistants nearby, "Did you take it? Hurry and take it out!"
The shop assistants were also panicked and said that they really didn't take it.
The man looked at them with suspicion.
Elena raised her hand and stopped their quarrel in time: "Okay, stop arguing, I know where it is, follow me."
Elena took the owner of the lost wallet, the store owner and the clerks, a long group of people, to the back of the store and pushed open a door. Behind the door was a yard with small rooms on three sides.
Here, the smell of Warcraft is even stronger.
The shop owner explained, "This is our store's small warehouse for storing monsters. It's mainly used for small monsters. Medium and large monsters are kept in another large warehouse."
Elena continued to lead people forward until she stopped in front of one of the small rooms.
"The wallet is right here."
The owner looked at the shop owner, and the shop owner quickly pushed open the door of the small room.
After the door opened, you could clearly see that there were two vertical iron cages in the small room, and the iron cages were divided into six small cages, two of which contained little monsters.
Elena's eyes fell on one of the cages, and she pointed there: "The wallet is there."
Everyone's eyes fell on the cage and the little monster inside.
This is a chipmunk, with a round body like a hamster, and silver-white fur with several naturally formed brown-red patterns in the shape of flowers.
The chipmunk is an omnivorous monster with no great attack power. It is similar to a mouse. You can say it is an evolved version of a mouse. It can eat, give birth, and bite. It causes endless damage to crops and food. As much as humans hate mice, they hate chipmunks twice as much.
However, the chipmunk still has its advantages, otherwise it would not have become a magical pet.
Its advantage is that it is very clean, has no germs or bacteria on its body, and will not spread diseases. It also has a high IQ, similar to that of a three or four-year-old human child, and can understand and execute the owner's orders.
Compared with its advantages, its disadvantages are nothing.
Is being able to eat considered a disadvantage? Which pets don't need to be fed?
As for whether it can give birth, all it needs is a minor operation.
It can also bite, so just throw it some toys, wood, or even scrap metal.
For those who have the time and money to raise a magical pet, these are not a problem, as long as the pet is well-behaved and smart and can bring happiness to the owner.
Elena's eyes lit up instantly.
It’s so round and cute, and so clean, without any viruses or bacteria. It’s better than dogs and cats. Ah, I really want to buy one to play with.
"A chipmunk stole my wallet?" the owner stared at the shop owner. "Did you not keep an eye on your pet and let the chipmunk escape?"
The magic pet shop failed to keep an eye on the pet and let it escape, causing losses to the customers. The magic pet shop must take responsibility and compensate.
The shop owner opened his mouth, looked at the owner, then looked at the chipmunk, not knowing how to defend himself.
He really doesn't know.
Could it be that someone didn't lock the cage properly, letting the chipmunk escape, and then secretly caught the chipmunk back afterwards?
The shop owner shifted his gaze to the shop assistants behind him.
Shop assistants: ...No, no, we don’t have it.
Elena ignored their doubts and excuses behind her. She stood in front of the chipmunk's cage, bent down to look at this cute little creature, and even reached out to touch its head.
The chipmunk turned around and pointed his big butt at her.
Elena: ...Hey, just wait.
Elena turned to the shop owner and said, "Boss, open the cage, the wallet is in the cage."
The shop owner quickly asked someone to get the key and opened the cage.
The shop owner reached into the cage, searched in the pile of wood shavings beside it, and found the dirty wallet.
The owner got the wallet back with mixed feelings. There wasn't much money in the wallet, and the important thing was the wallet. Now it was so dirty, what should he do with it?
Elena casually cast a water cleansing spell and a polishing spell, and the wallet instantly became as bright as new.
"Thank you, Miss Mage. Thank you, Miss Mage." The owner thanked her gratefully, then took out six silver coins from his wallet. "This is your reward."
Elena smiled and shook her head, then only took out 5 silver coins: "We agreed on 5 silver coins before."
"But you not only found the wallet, you also cleaned it for me," said the owner.
Elena smiled: "It's okay, I'm in a good mood, it's a free service."
After that, Elena asked the shop owner, "How much is this chipmunk?"
The shop owner replied: "One silver coin will do."
Two silver coins were handed to the shop owner. Elena said, "I want to buy this chipmunk. Can you help me get a cage and some food?"
The shop owner took the silver coin and asked, "Does it need sterilization?"
The chipmunk turned its head in fright and squeaked.
That's really smart. Elena raised her eyebrows, shook her head and said to the shop owner, "Not for now."
The chipmunk stopped chirping immediately.
The shop owner deftly put the chipmunk into a brand new cage with a magic pattern engraved on the bottom to prevent the chipmunk from biting the cage. Then he took a new bag and put the chipmunk's food and brand new small bowls and basins in it.
Elena took the cage and bag, threw the bag into the space ring, and walked out of the magic pet shop carrying the cage.
It took Elena more than two hours to visit the magic market, buy the magic gems that Leopold needed, and learn the market price of the materials for building an upgraded teleportation array. Then she hailed a carriage and drove to Todd's restaurant.
The dessert shop was separated from Todd's restaurant. The two shops had the same address. The carriage stopped in front of Todd's restaurant, and Elena saw the dessert shop at a glance.
Elena paid the taxi fare and carried the cage into the dessert shop.
"Hello, sorry, our store is not open yet." Someone came over and stopped her politely.
Elena took a look at the store. The interior was currently being renovated, but it was almost done.
Elena said to the man, "I want to find Todd, is he here?"
The man replied: "The master is not here now. He may be in the restaurant next door, or he may have gone home."
Elena moved into the restaurant next door and asked the waiter, and learned that Todd was not there either.
What a coincidence! Elena was distressed.
What now?
Todd's address?
There's no need to think about it. Who would tell anyone the boss's address? Besides, the waiter may not know it.
Go find Mr. Bunnier?
I don’t know if Mr. Bunnier is at home. Oh, Mrs. Bunnier should be at home. You can ask her.
Elena turned around and was about to go to Mrs. Bunnier's house. Coincidentally, Todd, whom she was looking for, was walking towards the door.
"Hi, Todd." Elena greeted happily.
When Todd saw her, he immediately walked over with a look of surprise on his face: "Elena, great, you are finally here."
Elena lowered her head embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I was forced to attend class by the teacher and wasted time."
"It's okay, it's okay." Todd smiled. "It's good that you're here now. Come on, I'll take you to the dessert shop next door."
Todd led Elena into the dessert shop and introduced the current preparations to her. Only the last administrative procedure was left to be completed. The store manager and staff had also been selected, and the decoration was halfway done.
By the way, it was the store manager who stopped Elena just now.
After the store manager knew Elena's identity, he immediately apologized to her: "I'm sorry, I was rude."
Elena smiled: "It's not your fault. You haven't seen me, and I haven't introduced my identity to you. It's not a fault that you don't know."
"Thank you for your forgiveness." The store manager expressed gratitude.
Elena looked at Todd: "Todd, I brought some fruits and nuts today, come and see how the quality is."
After Chef Roy picked the fruits and nuts, Elena put the basket of fruits and nuts directly into the space ring. One reason was to make it easier to carry, and the other was to keep them fresh. Although the space ring was not a refrigerator, there was no air or bacteria in the space. In the absence of air and bacteria, the fruits could be preserved for a long time.
Todd glanced at Elena's hand calmly and saw that she was holding nothing but a pet cage.
Well, there should be some space magic items.
Yes, Miss Elena, who is rich enough to build a teleportation array, naturally also has space-related magic items. After all, it is really convenient.
Todd said happily, "Okay, I'll take you to my office."
Todd led Elena to the restaurant next door again and went straight to the office on the second floor.
After entering the office, Elena took out the basket from the space ring.
The fruits in the basket are very fresh and the nuts are of good quality.
Todd had clean water and a knife brought in. After washing his hands, he cut the fruit into small pieces and tasted them one by one.
"Hmm, not bad." Todd nodded, mentally ranking the fruits. "This one, this one, and this one are all of grade one. The others, if processed, can be made into preserved fruits and candied fruit cubes."
Elena was very happy to hear Todd say this. She smiled and said, "These are fruits produced in my territory."
Todd's eyes lit up, and he looked happier than Elena: "Great, can the price be discounted?"
This is a real businessman. He offers preferential prices right from the start.
Elena smiled and said, "Todd, what is the purchase price of these fruits in your restaurant?"
Todd said: "The prices are of course different in different seasons and with different qualities. If it is at this time, the prices of these fruits are about..." Todd mentioned the purchase price of several fruits in the basket.
Elena estimated in her mind as she listened. The price Todd mentioned was higher than she expected. It was probably due to the high transportation cost. She had a teleportation array, so transportation would be much more convenient.
In the end, Elena offered a price that was 20% cheaper than the restaurant's purchase price.
Although this dessert shop can be considered as her business, it is not her sole proprietorship. If it were her sole proprietorship, the prices would definitely be lower. This dessert shop is a joint venture with others, and she is sure to make some money by supplying goods for a long time.
"Deal." Todd was also a down-to-earth businessman. No, it should be said that he was worthy of being a nobleman. He disdained to haggle over a small amount of money. He did not bargain with Elena. He agreed to whatever price Elena said.
Todd smiled and said, "But you must tell your men to pick the best and send it to us. You also have a stake in this store."
Elena happily assured: "No problem."
Todd tasted the nuts again. Since the quality was not bad and the price was favorable, he of course chose Elena's nuts.
"Do you have other fruits and nuts on your property?" Todd asked. "It would be nice to have a wider variety."
Elena nodded and shook her head. "Yes, there are, but the quality isn't great, it's probably just average. To build a good reputation, the fruits and nuts used in the dessert shop had better be good enough. If you need to use other fruits, you'd better get them from your supplier."
It is impossible for one place to produce all fruits and nuts. Of course, if you spare no expense to build a magical botanical garden, it is possible, but there is no need.
How much fruit and nuts can a dessert shop use?
If we produce too much but cannot consume it, isn’t it a waste?
Is Elena going to open another dried and fresh fruit production line and go the wholesale route?
Forget it, Elena rejected it in her heart. She was already busy enough and had to go to classes. She had no time to develop multiple lines of work.
Todd sighed regretfully: "It can only be done this way."
After that, Todd asked again, "Can my restaurant buy these fruits and nuts from you?"
Elena nodded: "Of course, I'll give it to you at the same price."
Elena was happy to show her generosity, as she didn't lack this little money.
Todd immediately took out the contract template and said, "Come on, let's sign a supply contract."
After the two agreed on the details of the supply contract and signed and stamped it, the supply line was finalized.
As Todd put the contract away, he asked, "The dessert shop's renovations will be finished soon. When will the cook and accountant arrive?"
Elena said, "Nine days later." Nine days later would be the rest day for her next study cycle.
"You arrange accommodation first, and I will bring them here personally in nine days," said Elena.
Todd immediately promised: "Don't worry, I will definitely get it done."
