Chapter 262
"That's simple . I would just have to find a reliable person to help us run the casino . Then, we'll say that we had sold the casino to others . " The intellectual acuity of Qi Xia as a businessman was truly unmatched .
After the last bit of concerns had been resolved, the five people had immediately decided to carry out the plan .
The underground casino, which had been closed for nearly two months, was reopened after three days . And the object of the business was no longer bound to the students of the Holy Roland School, but expanded to the surrounding towns .
When someone spread the news that the crystallic nucleus could be used as a gambling stake, a large number of mercenaries began taking the crystallic nuclei they had been storing in their warehouses to the casino .
Rather than a real gold and silver, they were more willing to bet out those tasteless crystallic nuclei for their entertainment . Anyway, these things were not going to be sold out and would just occupy space when placed in their warehouse . Naturally, the heads of every major mercenary corps were willing to let their people use these things and go to the new casino to try their luck .
In the first few days, due to Qi Xia's instructions, the casino manager was very generous to the guests . He had let a lot of people who tried to gamble taste the sweetness of winning . And those mercenaries who had won a lot of money, quickly spread out the news, so that more people began to take a stock of crystallic nuclei and some other things to join the gamble .
Within a week, the number of crystallic nuclei that Shen Yanxiao had accumulated had reached 10,000 . In addition to the crystallic nucleus, some medicinal materials had also began to enter the casino . This result had greatly exceeded the expectation of both Shen Yanxiao and Qi Xia .
After the number of customers had been stabilized, the casino manager had immediately displayed his skills, gathering the large amount of gold coins they’d prior lost back to the casino .
And instead of losing more money, the amount of gold coins that the five people in Shen Yanxiao's group had accumulated every day had reached tens of thousands .
Such speed of making money was totally astonishing .
Shen Yanxiao took the crystallic nuclei they had collected and fed it all to Xiu .
Due to this, Xiu's strength had been recovering with each passing day . Finally, after one month of business with the casino, Shen Yanxiao had successfully achieved her goal, making her able to untie the third layer of the seal .
That evening, Shen Yanxiao had slipped from the Holy Roland School and quietly ran to the Black City . She went to a hotel where she had decided to spend the night .
The scene when the second layer of the seal was untied was still vivid in her memories . She didn't want for Tang Nazhi and Ling Xuan to be shocked in case there would be another accident when she untie the third layer of the seal .
In the dead of the night, Shen Yanxiao was sitting alone inside a hotel room in the Black City as she looked at the candle on top of the table . She took a deep breath .
"Xiu, we can begin . "
Shen Yanxiao blew the light of the candle and sat on the bed . She slowly closed her eyes before her spirit went into the depths of her soul .
Inside her mind, she could faintly see two vague figures . As she gradually condensed her spiritual power, the two figures gradually became clearer as well .
The Vermillion Bird, who had a child-like appearance, was arrogantly crossing his arms on his chest with two of his legs suspended in mid-air . Those pair of large scarlet eyes were fixed at the person opposite of him .
On the other side was a tall, slender figure; his hair that was hanging down along his back and shoulders was like a black silk fabric, jet-black and luminous, and without any slightest decorations . That long black hair complemented the knife-like face that appeared in Shen Yanxiao's eyes .
Shen Yanxiao thought that she had seen the most with Shen Siyu and Qi Xia's countenance . But the moment her eyes fell on the man's face, only then did she knew what perfection really was .
[Tl Raz: Ehem, ehem . . who are those who're asking for the male lead again? Well, here you g-- I mean see you in the next chapter . . （´◔౪◔）]
