Chapter 39 The Second Store



After complaining, Lu Yao thought again. Emerald Town was visibly poor. There seemed to be no powerful magicians in the town. There were a few adventure teams and knights who took on escort missions alone, but those people never visited nail salons.

Lu Yao wanted to try making magic nails. In the process, she would have to repeatedly adjust and observe, and modify the magic circle and magic power values ​​through test feedback.

She was barely a half-magician, and she could experiment in person during the production process, but she still wanted more test samples.

Instead of spending money to find unreliable third-rate magicians in the town, it would be better to directly hire someone to come to her door, and she couldn't resist the shiny dragon.

Lu Yao nodded, "Okay, I'm willing to hire you. The monthly salary is three gold coins. If you accept, you can start work tomorrow."

Three gold coins are enough for a family of three in Emerald Town to eat for half a year, and a frugal family can even eat for a year.

Lu Yao would definitely not offer such a high monthly salary to an ordinary clerk.

She offered a high salary to hire him because he was a dragon.

But for a dragon, three gold coins are not enough for them to do a manicure.

Lu Yao made up her mind that if Harold thought it was too little, she would give up and could not afford to hire him for a higher salary.

Harold suddenly threw away the book and sat up from the sofa. His dark blue dragon eyes were shining, as ineffective as sapphires. "Are you serious?" Lu Yao

nodded.

Harold bared his white teeth, picked up the book on the sofa, and waved it, "I'll stay here tonight. I want new books tomorrow, and there are no more at the back."

Even dragons know that Lu Yao comes from another world, and the view outside the window of the nail salon is completely different from this world.

And the seemingly ordinary shop door is lingering with a thick and strange aura, supporting the operation of the time and space gate.

"..." Lu Yao was speechless.

Is this hiring a dragon or an ancestor?

When Si Jin came to his senses, he heard that Harold was tricked by Lu Yao into becoming a "child laborer" with three gold coins. It was really unbearable to watch.

Then he thought about it and realized that he was a little concerned about Lu Yao's magical talent. Why not stay in the store as a clerk to test the waters?

The lower the commission, the lower it is. Anyway, he is not short of treasures.

Si Jin raised his hand and said, "Shopkeeper, one guard is not enough. Harold has to go home sometimes. At least two people should take turns. What do you think of me?" Lu Yao

shook his head: "Not for now."

The store didn't need guards. Harold was hired just to research new nail art.

One dragon costs three gold coins, and two dragons cost six. It's too expensive.

The nail shop has made good profits in the past few days, saving forty or fifty gold coins.

But except for Lixiu and her two friends, ninety-nine percent of the turnover is contributed by dragon guests.

There are almost no potential customers in Emerald Town. It's too poor here.

Lu Yao thought to himself that he had to save money before developing new markets.

After all, she also has a snack bar that costs a lot of money.

After the cafeteria on the third floor of the snack bar opened, the daily cost of purchasing ingredients rose to nearly ten thousand. The warehouse exploded once, and for fear that the warehouse would not be enough, no extra grids were occupied, and the extra time was moved to Lu Yao, and his exact lifespan increased to four thousand years.

The finger bones given to her by the demon god are very interesting. With a thought, she can separate the time she wants.

But because there is no different space in the world, she still can't use that time to make a living.

For the time being, the snack bar is a bottomless pit, and she has to make more money to fill it.

However, she made one million from selling the ring, which can support it in the short term. But I don’t know what the next store will be like. The more savings I have, the more confident I will be.

Thinking of this, Lu Yao felt that it was time to post another ring-selling post on the forum.

She fished out her cell phone, took out a new black ring from the warehouse, took a detailed video, and posted it on the Paradise Forum, this time offering a price of two million.

After posting it, she didn't rush to read the comments.

The last time it was on the market for a long time, and this time the price doubled, so the buyer who is really interested will not appear too quickly.

After Lu Yao posted the post, she found that it was already very late, so she stood up and said, "I want to go home."

Si Jin, who was left aside: "..."

Si Jin stopped her, "Why can't I?"

Lu Yao said tactfully: "It's not your problem, it's mainly because the shop has little business and we can't afford to hire too many people."

Rather than guards, she actually wanted to recruit apprentices.

However, the appointments of the Tianlong Clan have been completed in the past two days, and there are no new customers. She wants to wait and observe the situation before considering recruiting apprentices.

Si Jin felt that this was an excuse. She could earn three or five gold coins for a set of manicures. How could she not afford to hire people?

Si Jin suddenly remembered that the manicure she changed today had not been paid for, "How much is my manicure?"

Lu Yao also remembered this. At that time, all the dragons gathered around to see Si Jin's new manicure, and Elvy talked to her again. She forgot about it when she was interrupted.

It is estimated that Si Jin has not left the store yet, so the system did not remind him.

This manicure is simple in design, and the expensive part is the polar crystal and the needle-like starlight.

Lu Yao rubbed her fingers and quoted carefully: "One hundred gold coins."

Afraid that Si Jin would think it was expensive, she added: "Starlight is very rare, and I only have one drop."

Si Jin took out a golden purse from his arms, "I'll give you a thousand gold coins."

Lu Yao: "..."

Is this a rich dragon?

Si Jin stuffed the gold coins into Lu Yao's arms, and they were so heavy that she bent forward.

He helped her up and said proudly: "You can hire me now, right?"

"..."

One dragon is hiring, and two dragons are also hiring, so it doesn't seem impossible.

Lu Yao's mind became active. The materials from this world would be used to refine the glue for dragons and study magic nail art. Some rare materials are expensive, and she was a little hesitant at first. She planned to play the long game and buy them little by little, fearing that the nail salon would not be able to make ends meet.

With these gold coins, she can buy a batch of rare materials with confidence.

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Okay, the treatment is the same as Harold's. You can come together tomorrow."

The dragon parents took the young dragons and walked out of Emerald Town, preparing to return to their respective dragon nests.

Dragons have a strong sense of territory. When they are ready to settle down, they will find a secret place they like and far away from their own kind to build a nest. In fact, they are far away from each other. It

is getting late, and the adult dragons want to return to their nests immediately, but the young dragons are unwilling to change back to dragon form, which gives the dragon parents a headache.

The young dragons accidentally mixed with humans, which has already made the dragons angry. Now they are unwilling to change back to dragons. Dominic, who is irritated, flicks his tail and shakes the earth. "Sasha, your mother is still waiting for us."

They are beautiful and powerful dragons, much more beautiful than the fragile and cunning humans. Dominic can't understand why Sasha is unwilling to change back to dragon form.

Field looked at Tina, his tone was softer than Dominic's, and there was tenderness in his beautiful eyes: "Tina, tell your mother why you don't want to turn back into a dragon?"

The other dragon parents were confronting their cubs. The cubs realized later that they seemed to have been in trouble and kept their heads down and said nothing.

Teacher Mu Xin probably knew that she had seen Sen Sen's sparkling claws, which were inlaid with emeralds.

But even as a teacher, when the dragon wanted to teach his cubs, she had no right to interrupt.

"Since the cubs have been found, I will take Sen Sen back first. See you all later." Mu Xin took Sen Sen away first. She was very curious about this nail art. When she flew to the barren mountain with Sen Sen, she couldn't help but stop and grabbed the little green dragon's claws to study it.

As soon as the teacher left, the young dragons felt even more helpless. Their parents got angry. Five or six dragon tails swung together, and the air began to twist.

The other young dragons stood with their hands behind their backs, feeling wronged but not daring to speak. The little golden dragon Kaka stood up, clacking and clacking, and stretched out his claws: "If you become a dragon, the glitter on your claws will break. I just made it, and I don't want it to break."

Five or six little dragons immediately showed their glittering claws.

The giant dragon parents: "..."

The air was silent.

Elga, the mother of the little golden dragon, held up her child's paw and looked at it. No matter from which angle, even in the dark night, the nails inlaid with gems were sparkling. "Which human made this?"

Kaka sobbed and nodded, "That shop is a nail salon, it can make nails sparkling."

Elga's eyes were glued to Kaka's nails and it was a bit difficult to move away. After a long while, she spoke: "Forget it, don't cry, go home."

The dragons had different expressions, and finally they all went back silently with their children.

A new day, the sun is shining.

Feisha got up early, she hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time.

She stayed at Lixiu's house. When she woke up, the sun filled the screen window. She stretched her waist and saw the fresh-colored nails, and her mood was bright all day.

Lixiu was making breakfast downstairs. When she saw her coming down, she immediately greeted her, "Fisa, did you sleep well?"

Fisa nodded, and a hint of relaxation appeared on her usually cold face, with the corners of her lips raised, "Yeah, very comfortable. Thank you."

After having a delicious breakfast together, Fisa prepared to find a place to build a teleportation array.

There is a fountain square in Emerald Town. Although the fountain in the center of the square has long dried up, the streets extend radially in four directions with it as the center.

The nail salon and the pharmacy are located on this long street on the east side, about 300 meters away from the fountain square. There are also fruit stalls, bakeries, weapon shops and some taverns along the way.

Lixiu thinks that the teleportation array is best built in a wide place to facilitate the flow of people, although she thinks that not many people may come to Emerald Town.

Fraser agreed with her idea and chose to build a teleportation array in the center of Fountain Square.

Hearing that someone was building a teleportation array, many residents of the town came to see the excitement.

Lu Yao went out to buy groceries in the morning and heard the neighbors discussing this matter enthusiastically. She quietly blended into the crowd to watch.

- Although most residents in the town were afraid of Lu Yao, the owners of several nearby stores were quite enthusiastic about her. This town was too poor. Lu Yao bought goods at a fixed time and fixed quantity every day. She was their big customer, and they were occasionally willing to talk to her.

The Oriental man with black hair and black eyes stood out in the crowd. Lixiu immediately spotted Lu Yao and greeted him, "Good morning, shopkeeper."

Lu Yao walked over and did not hide his curiosity, "Good morning. How do I use the teleportation array after it is built?"

Lixiu: "Each teleportation array has a landmark, which will automatically appear on the world map after it is built. When you want to go somewhere else from here, buy a teleportation scroll, enter the corresponding landmark, and enter the teleportation array to be teleported to the location on the landmark."

However, the teleportation scroll has teleportation distance and level restrictions. The higher the level and the longer the teleportation distance, the more expensive the scroll is, and high-level ones are extremely difficult to buy.

Low-level scrolls can only teleport a short distance. Many people who want to go to far places use low-level scrolls to move one by one, just like transferring on a tram.

What Feisa gave Lixiu was a high-level scroll, which can be directly teleported from Emerald Town to the vicinity of Sasha Pharmacy in Onoton City. Lu Yao

was deeply amazed and secretly took note of Lixiu's words. In the future, when she needs to buy materials, she will most likely have to use a teleportation array to go out.

However, Lixiu said that Emerald Town did not have a teleportation array before, and teleportation scrolls could not be bought in the town for the time being.

Lu Yao remembered that in the magic book that Si Jin gave her, there was a category called scroll making. She had not read it carefully yet, and it might contain the method of making a teleportation scroll.

I'll go back and look at it later. If I learn how to make scrolls, I can save a lot of money on buying scrolls.

On the national highway, a team of carriages and horses moved slowly forward. A fierce quarrel was heard in the leading red carriage. To be more precise, it was the girl's one-sided venting of anxiety.

Anne put down the teacup angrily, her face full of resentment, "Mother, I don't want to go out at all. Why can't you please me? I'm really upset. Zelan is going to marry Helena, and I've become a complete joke in the magic academy. I don't want to go to school, I don't want to go out, I just want to rest quietly at home for some time."

Mrs. Sid put down the teacup gracefully, her face unchanged: "Rest doesn't mean you will become a gauntlet. Mom doesn't let you go out for social events. She just wants to take you to an interesting place to relax. You should change your impatient and straightforward temper."

Anne knew that she couldn't disobey her mother, and she became more and more irritable.

Mrs. Syd lowered her eyes, the black tea in her cup exuded a rich aroma, and she soothed her softly: "If you are upset, just take a nap. We should be there when you wake up. It is a very interesting store. I am very excited just by hearing people describe it. I am sure you will like it too."

Anne turned her back to Mrs. Syd, her face solemn, not believing it at all.

Her heart was dead and would not be touched by anything again.
