"Ms. Rosalia?"
"This price is too expensive."
The employee immediately replied, "Sir, this is already a very reasonable market price!"
Rosalia didn't argue with him, but simply said in a cold tone, "Call your shop owner out."
The employee shook his head: "Sir, our boss is very busy. If you want to see a house, I can take you there."
Rosalia glanced at her, then turned and walked into the store.
She walked very fast, and before the employee could stop her, she saw her walk into the boss's office.
The employee was taken aback and quickly chased after the door, pulling on it but failing to open it, only to discover that the office door was actually locked from the inside.
She pressed her ear against the door to listen to what was happening inside.
I could vaguely hear some indistinct conversations.
"...You don't want...taxes...to report...the Knights of Favonius..."
"...I understand...please...please."
She was still listening intently when she heard the sound of the door lock opening, and she immediately stood up straight.
The door opens.
She saw Rosalia walk out from inside, holding a cat, her expression unchanged, while her boss wore a fawning smile.
what happened?
Rosalia walked back to everyone and said, "Okay."
Everyone was a little curious: "What's ready?"
Rosalia said, "I just went to the owner to help me negotiate the price of the shop."
"what?"
"The owner said he was willing to sell it to us at a 50% discount."
"???"
Xia Ci seemed to be deep in thought. This price reduction was a bit outrageous. It was rare to meet someone who was even better at bargaining than her.
She asked, “How did you do that?”
Rosalia said calmly, "Those who work in this line of work don't all have a clean background. I happen to have some dirt on him."
Xia Ci nodded: "I see. But how could you, a nun from the Church of the West Wind, have such a thing?"
Rosalia paused for a moment, then said, "I found it."
Chapter 529 Treating Everyone Fairly (4K)
We went to look at the houses together and finally chose a shop located not far from Longlong Pharmacy.
Because the pharmacy is doing so well, house prices on this street have been rising rapidly recently.
But with Rosalia's help, everyone saved half of their Mora.
Although he didn't lack the money, Xia Zhi still thanked her properly.
Rosalia shook her head and said, "Mr. Xia, there's no need to thank me. I've already agreed to be the manager of this store, so naturally I should think more about the store's needs."
They got into the zone so quickly.
Xia Zhi smiled and said, "Then let's go buy the furniture and facilities."
Take out your phone; it contains photos taken at the Cat's Tail Tavern. Just follow the pictures to find the place in the market.
Rosalia noticed that everyone was holding such a small cube and couldn't help but take a second look.
She seemed very curious, but because of her personality, she didn't ask any more questions.
Xia Ci took out a new phone and handed it to her, saying, "Since we're all on the same side now, we should definitely have this too."
“What is this?” Rosalia asked.
"An alchemical item that can communicate remotely. It's very easy to use. You'll understand once you play around with it for a while. Let's join a group first."
As soon as Rosalia joined the group, messages like "Welcome newcomer," "Group status -1," and "Newcomer, quickly post a picture" flooded the screen.
This gave her a strange sense of liveliness.
After a day of shopping, everyone had bought almost everything they wanted from the stores.
All that's left is to go through the formalities.
This is even simpler. Xia Zhi greeted Qin on his phone and told him to just go and pick up the license tomorrow.
Everyone initially thought Rosalia's personality was a bit cold and difficult to get along with, but after spending the whole day together, they realized that she was just too lazy, didn't like to talk or explain too much, and didn't care about other people's opinions, but actually she was a pretty good person.

night.
Deep within the Palace of Wisdom.
There was a pile of books on the table that I hadn't finished reading yet.
Nasida sat alone on the tree bed, looking down at her phone, chatting in a group chat while checking the time.
When the time came, she immediately put her phone away, lay down, and fell asleep.
Why bother reading books? We've been reading them for five hundred years, I'm tired of them. Games are much more fun!
I'm going to get a pentakill today!
Nasida was sitting in front of the computer, just about to select someone, when someone gently patted her on the shoulder.
She turned her head, a little puzzled: "Brother Xia Zhi?"
Xia Zhi handed over a book and said with a smile, "Nasida, stop playing games for now and take a look at this."
"this is?"
"This book contains several meditation techniques and some other things that should be very helpful to you. You can learn from it."
"Meditation, huh..."
"Hmm, you're so smart, you should be able to learn it quickly."
Nasita blinked, reached out and took the book, a sweet smile on her face, and said, "Of course, I love reading the most."
Xia Zhi sat beside her, watching her read.
This book, "The Book of Learnedness," was something he had temporarily retrieved from Xiangling.
He had previously heard Xia Ci say that the "Doctor" was working on a "God-Making Project" in Sumeru with the Order Academy, seemingly wanting to create a god using the "Heart of God."
Because of what Ke Lai had experienced in the past, Xia Zhi didn't have a good impression of the "Doctor".
However, judging from Xia Ci's words, she seemed to prefer that her younger sister Nasita handle the matter herself, hoping that she could prove her ability in this turmoil and take back the rights that originally belonged to her from the group of sages in the Order of the Church.
This can be considered a test for her.
However, there is also a problem: Narcida, the goddess of wisdom, is not good at fighting.
Moreover, she has only been alive for five hundred years, and most of the faith in Sumeru is still focused on the Great Compassion Tree King, so she doesn't possess much divine power.
Therefore, Xia Zhi inscribed some new offensive skills into the Book of Learned Things, such as Celestial Star, to enhance Naxida's combat power.
Of course, if she still can't win, she can call for reinforcements.
Nasita was unaware of these things at the moment; she was simply engrossed in reading.
Xia Zhi discovered that, like her sister, she only needed to read the book a few times to grasp the skills within it.
After mastering the meditation technique, she discovered that the divine power within her body was increasing automatically, and a look of shock appeared in her eyes.
"Brother Xia Zhi..."
"Calm down, let's continue watching."
"it is good."
After finishing the book, Xia Zhi patted Naxi Da's head, told her to continue playing the game, and then left with the book.
Nasida withdrew her gaze from his retreating figure and looked at her sister's computer screen beside her, where a user named "Puff" was rampaging through the game with the help of her teammates.
But now, looking at the pentakill icon on the screen, she no longer felt the excitement she had last night; instead, she felt a sense of indifference.
Games are just for fun; you can only truly enrich yourself by reading books!
Xia Ci turned and glanced at her younger sister, noticing that she seemed a little absent-minded, and asked, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Nasida looked at her, hesitating to speak: "Sister..."
"Is there anything you can't say?"
"that is……"
"The meditation method your cousin just taught you?"
"Huh? My sister can do that too?"
