Chapter 45: Abigail
Xia He bought four boxes of black pearls, one of which was all mutated. In the other three boxes, about 10% were mutated and evolved black pearls. This thing is used to repair equipment and has high quality improvement.
Each box of 1,000 gold coins is 4,000 gold coins in total. It looks like buying it outside for about 10,000 gold coins.
Because the transaction amount is not small, the boss also gave away four magic seal boxes for free.
It is difficult for a bargain to happen in the black market. The bosses of the black market are all hired by big financial owners, and they have shares in the store themselves. They do this professionally and have a stingy vision.
Xia He was already satisfied enough. He looked at the list of goods in various stores every day and occasionally bought something. Jack was puzzled, but Xia He didn't say what he was going to do.
After Xia He finished looking at the black market area, four days have passed.
Jack cotton was a little anxious. After Xia He saw it, he smiled and said, "Okay, Jack, let's go find your captain now, but before that, we have to add a little potion. By the way, there is something to eat. The time to enter the secret room will not be short, so you can't have an empty stomach, right?"
Asra's words always make sense, and Cotton Jack could not refute it. Xia He spent half a day on the black market and purchased some low-level scroll materials, magic potions, and psychotropic potions. Xia He also used low-level scroll materials to create some practical magic scrolls and handed them to Cotton Jack.
When Cotton Jack saw Xia He’s preparation for the battle, he knew he was going to enter the secret room and was a little excited.
Xia He lent his cubic meter of space ring to Cotton Jack. Cotton Jack temporarily had equipment to collect and store items. He tried it several times in a row, but Xia He did not dissuade him.
After getting used to this thing, there is nothing strange about it. Even magicians cannot avoid the vulgarity.
The ruins go deeper and the trade zone outside the black market is a large area of ruins. The roads in the ruins are still intact, but the metal tracks in the center of the road have been removed and the road has not been filled.
Walking through the ruins, someone suddenly shouted behind him: "Master, little mage!"
The sound was quite nice? Xia He thought so in his heart, and when he looked back, he saw a woman wearing a golden priest robe running barefoot.
Xia He's eyes were so wide that the pastor's robe was even more exaggerated than the one he had refined from blood, as if it was a layer of soft gold, which was attached to the female pastor's plump body, rising and falling with her footsteps.
Is she so luxurious and high-profile, isn’t she afraid of being stolen?
"What do you mean when you call me a little mage?" Xia He and the pastor approached. When they stopped, they looked down at her. The female pastor had a good figure, but was not tall, only a little taller than her shoulders. Her skin was so delicate, her eyebrows were dark, and her eyes were like golden amber, but full of vitality.
"Because you are young!" The female priest smiled, bent her eyebrows, pointed at her nose to Xia Hedao: "Helping me, it only costs two hundred gold coins."
"Why don't you go and grab it!"
"So cheap?"
Cotton Jack and Xiahe were completely different reactions.
The female pastor smiled so hard that his eyes became a line, and he hurriedly said to Xia Hedao: "Yes, it's that cheap."
She turned her head again and said to Cotton Jack: "The goddess doesn't allow me to rob, otherwise I would have joined the pirates long ago."
"Who do you exist..."
"Wealth is above it, the goddess is my faith, my name is Abigail." The female pastor put away his smile and answered Xia He's question seriously.
Her previous friendly spirit became solemn and sacred. Seeing her hands in front of her, she looked solemn, Xia He couldn't help but sigh that the clergyman changed his face quickly.
"My name is Asla, this one is Jack." Xia He introduced to Abigail. Abigail put away his solemn appearance and grabbed Xia He's sleeve.
"Asla, you are Asla, right?"
"Yes." Xia He retreated nervously.
"You really think I'm cheap?"
What is this? Xia He wanted to shake off his sleeves and find that the female priest was so powerful that he didn't want to be torn off his mage robe, so he could only let Abigail pull him.
"Or why should I raise the price?" Abigail shook hard, and Xia He felt a little numb.
He pressed Abigail's hand and pushed it away hard: "Don't do this, you're not a hundred years old, are you?"
"Where is it? I was raised by a goddess since I was a child, and I was in my twenties!" Abigail said angrily.
Xia He is not only numb, but also a little cold now. This female priest was raised by the gods? I went there, what rhythm is this? Isn’t it said that the goddess is always paying attention to her?
The last time I met the Pope of the Lord of Dawn, I realized how dangerous it is to get close to the gods. The Pope is just the spokesperson for the gods on earth. This Abigail actually had direct contact with the gods as a mortal, and even lived together?
He is in his twenties and has a level 20, which is not surprising for a priest. As long as the gods give it, it is too easy for these believers to upgrade. Xia He previously said that 200 gold coins are cheap because Abigail is a master-level magician.
But Xia He never expected that Abigail was still a kind of existence like the Son of God or the Saint.
This is even more evil than Erin's identity as a god-fellow, and it's impossible to touch it.
Abigail grabbed Xia He's sleeve again, pinched Xia He's arm, and said in surprise: "Asra, why are you so hard?"
This female pastor is so dirty. Xia He really wants to say, isn’t it because of you?
It is too dangerous to say that you can't hire this priest. Xia He was thinking about the reasons in his heart, and then he heard Abigail say: "Don't lie, the gods can tell clearly. You are very rich, I smell the smell of gold coins, it's true..."
Abigail closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if Xiahe was the supreme delicacy.
"I am a magician, Abigail, I don't need to hire a spellcaster." Xia He didn't dare to say that he had no money anymore. Who was the other party? The priest of the Goddess of Wealth, he was quite sensitive to money.
"I also think that the business of 200 gold coins is too little." Abigail approached Xia He's face and said seriously: "Why don't you invest in the temple, right?"
Cough! Cough! Cough...
Xia He'er coughed hard, investing in the temple? Will the goddess make a deal with her invader from another world? If she agrees, would she be looking for death?
But, the temptation is so great!
By leaning on the thighs of the Temple of Wealth, it will be much more convenient for you to act in this world.
Xia He's arm was pressing against Abigail's chest. When he coughed, he felt the waves surging. Abigail's golden amber-like pupils were filled with intoxicating light. The smell of Asra was so nice, it was like gold becoming a sperm.
"How much does it cost?" Xia He still planned to ask about the price. If it was only tens of thousands of gold coins, it would be nothing great if the investment failed. At worst, it would be considered a waste of money.
"I have land, and now it's a matter of hiring people to build a temple. The initial investment should be only more than 100,000 gold coins. The construction of the statue of the god will cost about 20,000 kilograms of gold."
Xia He suddenly woke up, 20,000 kilograms of gold?
One gold coin is ten grams, one pound of gold is fifty gold coins, and twenty thousand pounds of gold is one million gold coins!
"If you want to reach the specifications of the main temple, it's one million kilograms of gold, and I'm having a headache. But within two years, it's enough to meet the minimum standard." Abigail said with some worries. The Lord of Stormwind City is an iron rooster and refuses to pay. She has been wandering around here for a while, and it seems unlikely that someone else can invest a million gold coins.
Twenty thousand kilograms of gold, just the lowest specification?
"Abigail, reiterate that I am a magician, from the Arcane Empire." Xia Hede made it clear. He would not become a believer of the gods. If you invest in such a thing, you should not look for him.
"Ah? That's it...it shouldn't matter. You're just investing in the temple, and the goddess doesn't care about your faith."
Only talking about money, not about feelings? Xia He felt very strange.
"Asra, investment is very cost-effective. You will have half of the income from the Storm Point Temple in the future. You can transfer the temple warriors at will, and the priests can use it for free, except me..."
Seeing that Xia He was still hesitating, Abigail gritted his teeth and said, "If you are willing to invest in the statue of God, I can use it for free!"
"How to use it?" Xia He was curious.
"I'm a combat priest. Why do you think I'm dressed so cool? It's just to let someone steal me."
Xia He was ashamed. Abigail dressed like this to fish?
Treat yourself as bait, there is no one else to have this courage.
Abigail let go of Xiahe, turned around in the same circle, and said narcissisticly: "Asla, look, such a perfect combat priest can accompany you on adventures, which is very cost-effective."
"Jack, would it be OK if you hired your people to build the temple?"
Cotton Jack said: "Just give money, build a house and robbery."
This is the norm for pirates. There are also many sailors on a pirate ship. It is very hard to maintain warships and clean the work every day. Running around the sea is still dangerous. Compared to this, building a house is safer.
"Then how much money should I get in the early stage investment? What kind of treatment can I get?" Xia He made a quick judgment. Although he was taking a risk with the Goddess of Wealth, there were too many gods in this world and he couldn't avoid it. He had been paid attention to by the Lord of Dawn before, and even sent out the Pope.
"If you invest in the temple, you will gain the friendship of the goddess."
"What is the specific treatment?" Xia He is not easy to fool.
"The goddess has always been very generous. If you can invest 20,000 kilograms of gold, you will have me..." Abigail's hand had an extra book. She shook it, and a clattering sound. Xia He looked at the words and tables inside, like an account book.
“What is it?”
"The Book of Wealth can directly trade with the goddess."
"trade?"
"You can buy equipment, magical skills directly as your own person, and even hire a goddess to take action personally to help you solve the big trouble."
Abigail's words made Xia He a little dizzy.
