Chapter 124 Difference Engine Manuscript
After Alice checked the goods and found no problems, she deftly stated that the money would be transferred directly to the account designated by the Church of the Night through a bank in Hillston District.
As for the remaining extraordinary materials needed by the Church of the Night, she will come over to trade them after Intis's goods arrive at the embassy.
Xia Er understood this and was not worried that the Eternal Sun Church would default on its debts. After all, they were all orthodox churches and cared about their reputation. Moreover, the Eternal Sun Church was known for its fair contracts.
"After we finish this order, shall we go to Intis's restaurant for dinner tonight?"
"I invite you," said Xia Er.
The more people there are, the more lively the meal will be.
Anyway, these people don't have Wang Wei.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely go."
Alice now wished she could hug Xia Er and give her a big kiss. Although she was just running errands for the church, she still received her due compensation and contributions.
These are all achievements she made while working in a foreign land.
Let's pull this off!
She will be able to advance to Sequence 7, the Sun Priest!
How could I not be happy?
"So it wasn't just me who was invited?"
Daly raised her hand and tapped Xia'er's shoulder with a smile.
"Only locals can tell if Intis cuisine is authentic."
Xia Er turned his head and said that he usually jokes, but he still has to consider Captain Dunn. He doesn't play any ambiguous games; it's just a normal dinner invitation.
"That's right, all the dishes in Intis are delicious. There are already many different cuisines, and Emperor Roselle even helped to improve them."
"Emperor Rosell was practically omnipotent."
Alice began to praise their "former emperor".
What about the Civil Code, the opera "The Return of the Count," jigsaw puzzles, and all sorts of food?
In the eyes of many Intis, Emperor Roselle was practically developing into an omniscient and omnipotent being.
"Food is the most important thing for the people."
Russell's coup attempt went much more smoothly after he shouted that phrase.
Shael longed to know if, at that moment, Emperor Roselle stood on high ground, and when his Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse announced that everything was ready, he sighed with a sense of peace.
I had no intention of vying for power, but I knew of the suffering of the common people.
Xia'er was thinking about what to eat for dinner.
In the East End, on the Huiley Party side, the undead Jason reports to the vengeful spirit "Steve Shearer":
"Sir Steve, several gangs have been quite active lately. The manuscripts we released through the black market have already attracted the attention of the authorities."
"Werewolf" Tyr stood behind, watching the "Wraith" and "Living Specter" talking, mentally calculating his recent gains.
"Lord Steve" obtained a large sum of operating funds by using only a few "useless" manuscripts, and also complicated the situation in Backlund, which was undoubtedly very beneficial to them.
"The manuscript of the third-generation difference engine."
"The price we sold it for was actually a bit low, considering it was a handwritten manuscript by Turani von Hermeshuin. However, since we didn't release the complete version anyway, if the situation in Backlund gets chaotic, Sharon and Marich might reveal their weaknesses."
The "vengeful spirit" tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair. He felt that he had enough experience to consider the possibility of becoming a demigod.
The universal ascension pathway sequence 4 puppet requires a demigod-level mummy as an aid. Xia'er felt this was inaccurate; a more comprehensive statement would be that it requires a demigod-level cursed object.
He's not a normal extraordinary being; he's more like a humanoid sealed object. If he gets the extraordinary materials he needs, he can directly synthesize and strengthen them to become a demigod. There's no need for all that trouble.
"Lord Steve, you really switched?"
Jason, unable to hide his excitement, said, "I'm a live user."
He knew perfectly well that his boss hadn't brought out these manuscripts for money, but to exchange them for one of the main materials for ascending to demigod status.
"That's right. Although it's uncertain who specifically provided this material, it should be related to the Royal Family of Ruen or MI9."
"The Vengeful Spirit" Xia Er nodded. He would release a portion of the manuscript only to attract attention, so that someone who knew its value would appear and make a deal.
For a country, choosing between a primary source that is basically useless and a manuscript of immense value is not actually difficult.
"Lord Steve, what are your plans regarding the other extraordinary materials?"
"A live account?" Jason asked with some anticipation.
He now desperately hopes that by tomorrow, the "vengeful spirit" will be able to gather all the materials and attempt to advance to demigod.
If "Steve" succeeds, their direct supervisor will be a demigod, making future promotions much easier.
If Steve fails and dies, he can use the extraordinary properties of the extracted "Wraith".
"How is the Huili Party doing?"
"Xia'er" did not answer Jason's question. He had many ways to obtain the last extraordinary material and was not in a hurry to upgrade.
Whether in the land abandoned by the gods or in the spirit world, there are many unclaimed, extraordinary natural materials.
"Sir Steve, as you said, we have compiled information on all the residents in several blocks. Because our information is quite comprehensive, our real estate agency is doing a very good job, and many businesses in the vicinity are willing to cooperate with us."
"We have also received some supplies from ships at sea, which are being transported relatively safely through the waters where the Blood River is active, to the Kingdom of Rune, the Rose Island, and the Southern Continent."
Jason, a "livestock" member, reports on the development of the Huili Party. In fact, those previously involved gray industries have already begun to be marginalized within the Huili Party.
Currently, the Huili Party primarily operates real estate agencies in the East District, including but not limited to: housing rentals, domestic services, hired bodyguards, errand services, and city cleaning.
Basically, they do all the work they can, kind of like a general store. Wherever they need temporary workers, they can come and post a request, and they'll immediately assign people to them.
He didn't earn a lot, but his influence in the East District increased significantly. He also established partnerships with some government departments, helping them with some of the literal dirty and tiring work.
Import and export are quite profitable. They cooperate directly with "Blood General" to acquire small merchant ships and goods from other places that they have seized from Blood General.
Then, by trading with the sea areas that can be influenced by the Bloodline, the Kingdom of Rune, the Rosede Islands, and the Southern Continent, and by using the existing manpower of the Eastern Continent, there are some benefits.
"Go and ask that arbitrator lady to help us investigate what these gangs are doing."
"Of course we know they're looking for the manuscripts we've distributed as bait through various channels, but with other gangs so active, we need to get moving too, right?"
"Chael" looked at his two subordinates and instructed them.
"Understood, Lord Steve."
"Actually, we've been commissioned to conduct investigations before, and we can simply outsource the task."
Jason chuckled twice, seemingly quite adept at handling such matters.
