Chapter 406: The Future in Your Palm(1/2)
Chapter 406 The Future in the Palm
The field fell silent. The two sat at the table without saying a word.
Ah Hao was digesting the news brought by Shado and thinking about how he should deal with himself in the future.
Xia Duo couldn't help it first: "You think about it yourself, Agadi won't be destroyed in one day anyway. I have to arrange a comprehensive retreat of Star Covenant. This is the most important thing at the moment. You can also think about how to reduce the losses yourself."
"I know."
"I will call you before leaving. When we retreat, we will not go through the star gate. We should take the plane developed by Urich."
"Um."
Shado put on his gloves again: "Then I'll leave first. There are still a large number of 'stinky people' waiting for me to catch them."
"I hope I won't stink my shadow." Xia Duo sighed and walked towards the increasingly thick black vortex on the opposite wall.
"Wait, take this one." Ah Hao looked up and called Xia Duo, and handed out the perfume placed beside the table. "The [Clean Snow] perfume I just refined can still resist the smell of disaster. I'm giving it to you, thank you for the news."
Xia Duo smiled so hard that his eyebrows were bent: "Then I will be disrespectful. Mr. [Sage]'s skills are always so admirable."
The black leather gloves took the perfume bottle, and the shiny leather shoes were elegantly swirling on the smooth marble floor. Shado turned around and jumped lightly into the black vortex.
Xia Duo was in a really good mood. It seems that the news about [Dang Qi] really made him overjoyed.
The gloomy sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window disappeared without a trace, revealing the burning clouds with a ray of rays of light behind them.
Ah Hao's fair face was revealed by the setting sun, but he rubbed his handsome eyebrows and eyes into a ball with his hands and sighed deeply.
His mood was not so good. After careful recollection, Ah Hao found that there was an inseparable bond between him and Agadi. This kind of bond cannot be easily abandoned by "retreat".
Agadi has his own foundation to work hard, his friends he has known for a long time, his mysterious and vast world of mystery, and his
"Mr. Ah Hao, it turns out you are here. I said why didn't you find you upstairs?"
Butler Hodge's slightly surprised voice interrupted Ah Hao's thoughts.
Ah Hao let go of his hand covering his face and looked at Hodge who was standing respectfully on the side: "What's wrong?"
"It's like this. The odor of unknown origin has recently appeared in the downtown. Ms. Chery responded to me that several of the shop clerks had symptoms of nausea and nausea. And due to this, many uptown customers were reluctant to come down, and the business of the shop was not very ideal. So."
"Cherry suggested that he would like to close the store for a few days and install some ventilation equipment. What do you think?"
"Oh." Ah Hao sighed, "No need to install any equipment. This smell problem will only become more and more serious. Both stores in the downtown will be closed directly."
"What, close the door directly?!" Hodge seemed to have unexpectedly expected that Ah Hao was so decisive, and was choked for a moment and couldn't speak.
"Well, arrange the staff to the shops in Uptown, or go to those Chloe perfume shops."
Ah Hao thought about this very thoroughly. As long as what Xia Du said was not false, the odor problem would only become more and more serious.
Even if Agadi really has the courage to open the Star Gate forever, this is not a decision that can be made within a few days. In this hesitant stage, the downtown will only be the first to be affected and become the victim of disaster.
Abandoning these two stores in Lower City is the best strategy at present.
"Father Shirley, you can help me sell the downtown shop that Francis gave me. You must sell it within this week, and it's OK for an outrageous price."
"Don't worry about the old store at the beginning. Anyway, I've only rented it for a year, so I'll leave it there."
Listening to Ah Hao's arrangement, Hodge gradually became quiet.
He frowned, as if he felt something: "Do you know something?"
"Well. The odor problem of downtown will only become more and more serious and will be almost impossible to solve. This matter involves the extraordinary level."
Hodge swallowed and said nervously: "Can I report this to Mrs. Northon? You know, the Northon family also has many industries in downtown Agadi. If what you said is true, then the Northon family can lose tens of millions of Canadian dollars if they take action earlier."
Ah Hao glanced at Hodge and waved his hand: "Tell her. But don't ask me the source of the news, I can't say it. You can ask Mrs. Northon to do the investigation, divination, etc."
"Yes." Huo Qi nodded, and wanted to leave anxiously, but asked: "Is there anything else that needs to be ordered?"
"Let's do it first. Don't worry about the several stores in Shangcheng. I still have some ideas."
If possible, Ah Hao is going to study how to use ordinary materials to make perfumes and toiletries that can remove the odor of evil spirits, so the perfume shop in Shangcheng still has to be kept.
"Forget it from Natasha, I'll tell her myself."
"OK."
Ah Hao didn't know if the news about Shado had reached Natasha.
Now it seems that opening a perfume branch in other cities may be the most wise decision he has made recently. It should be the most ideal plan for the future to shift the focus of AH perfume development to other cities as soon as possible.
After Butler Hodge left, he hurriedly left.
This old man is very nostalgic and always thinks about his old boss, the Northon family. Ah Hao has no big objection to this. After all, in name, he is still an elder of the Northon family.
It would be better to let the Northon family suffer less losses.
Beef brought the dinner that had been prepared long ago. After eating quickly, Ah Hao drove towards Northon Manor.
As night fell, Ah Hao slowly recounted his previous hearings with Wende beside him on the rooftop rooftop of the tallest building of Northon Manor.
Wende's mouth wide open, and the ignited cigarette fell to the ground without realizing it.
"Then, isn't Agadi almost finished?"
"It's not that." Ah Hao looked at the lighted Anfa Star Gate in the distance, "Do you know how many times the Anfa Star Gate has opened today?"
Wende thought for a moment: "It should be just a dozen times, it's rare."
“It’s still too much.”
Ah Hao shook his head, walked around the rooftop, and walked away from the city center.
Below that, there were deep cracks and the downtown buildings with blurred lights in the cracks. But at this time, he could see a layer of faint green mist in the downtown, making the bright blue and purple lights look a little distorted.
The fog currently has no tendency to spread actively, it is just floating quietly in the downtown.
Wende also walked to him and asked with some restlessness: "What are you going to do?"
"Look at it again. If the situation is really not ideal, maybe I will leave Agadi. Change the city to continue studying alchemy and do my perfume business."
"I didn't expect you to be so interested in alchemy." Wender leaned on the railing, quietly staring at the downtown like a crack, searching for the direction of his [Abyss Bar].
"What about you, what are you going to do? You have clues about the stinky case, are you going to take on that task?"
"No." Wender shook his head, "This is not something I, a second-level Austrian, can participate in."
"And I can't explain the source of the news. You have your own channel of information, I believe you, but I'm too lazy to ask."
“Okay.”
After a moment of silence, Ah Hao continued to ask, "Are you going to leave Agadi?"
"I don't know. If grandma is about to leave, I will leave."
"Yeah." Ah Hao's answer was not very surprised.
"Let's go, the rooftop is so cold, I don't want to blow the air anymore." Ah Hao wrapped his little jacket tightly, "Go and see how the alchemists are doing."
"Ah, I'm still going to see my grandma." Wende seemed a little reluctant.
"Hodge has already gone to say that you don't need you. And what I want to go to is the southwest corner. Wouldn't it be the way to go to your grandma's side?"
"Okay, what you said makes sense."
Ah Hao dragged Wind to the garden house in the southwest corner of Northon Manor.
After not seeing each other for a day, the place had already felt like a different place. Several simple stone houses rose from the ground, and the scorching fires in the room illuminated the night sky here.
Blancpain, who was commanding the construction of a new house, saw the two of them and greeted them from a distance.
"Hey, here."
Blancpain gave a few more instructions and hurried over.
"Mr. Wender, I'm sorry, I've made the lawn and garden in the manor so messy. We'll definitely help you recover before we leave."
"It's okay." Wender waved his hand, "Anyway, grandma has agreed. You just need not to go too far. It's good to be able to restore it to its original state, but is it troublesome?"
"Don't worry, no trouble. We have water-based magical magicians and wind-based magical magicians, so it's very convenient to recover some turf."
These stone houses are indeed simple, and they are not even ready for the door. Ah Hao looked inside curiously through the open door.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and used the ether vision he had fed with [Ether Observation Potion].
He first looked at the stone house where the red light was the most prosperous. There were only two people in this stone house, one man controlled the fire to become ether, and the other man controlled the earth to become ether.
Under the tempering of fire and earth, the red-temperature metal gradually formed, and according to the shape, it is probably a long-handled axe. They should be the most traditional alchemists of the [metal smelting] school.
Ah Hao turned his head and looked at the stone house with the strongest yellow light. There were several alchemists sitting in the room. Each of them sat at a long table, with a high barrier on the table, as if he wanted to isolate other people's peeping.
Ah Hao turned his perspective slightly and could only see what they were doing in their hands, which should be clay sculptures, stone slabs, jade statues, etc.
Compared with the alchemists who smashed iron, they covered their own refining process very tightly. Ah Hao could only see the yellow earth-formed ether flying, and the others could not be seen clearly.
There are all kinds of people in the third chaotic stone house, but Ah Hao soon discovered an acquaintance - Karina.
Karina was skillfully manipulating the alchemy workbench and stirring the crucible in front of her. Ah Hao could see the wind ether gathering in the crucible, and she would occasionally take out some substances from the pot and add some substances.
Most of these substances are herbs, gold and stone, and the etheric components on them are very complex, and Karina seems to be separating the ingredients she wants from them.
Simply put, she is "extracting".
