They all call me the Outer God
Chapter 195: A welcome gift from an unexpected guest
During holidays, these people can rest and do not have to work, but this is limited to people above the middle class.
The lower class people have no human rights. They receive the lowest salary and do the most tiring work every day like slaves, and they will not receive any subsidies.
When those factory owners are still celebrating the holidays, they probably won’t consider that there are still people living in dire straits to make money.
"Every day is a holiday, and I don’t know what’s good about it."
James suddenly appeared behind Leah. Leah looked back and found that he seemed to have changed his clothes.
In order to attend the banquet, everyone must wear the most decent dress, but when Leah looked carefully, she found that James did not change his clothes at all. He just applied shoe polish all over his body.
Now the mask of this bird-beaked doctor was polished to a bright shine. Leah smelled the pungent smell of shoe polish and didn’t want to admit that he knew him.
"Are you sure you want to dress like this for the banquet?"
"Of course, I don't believe anyone dares to kick me out."
"Will other disorderly people go?"
"Not necessarily. I'm not their attending physician, how do I know? Do you know how tired I am these days playing football?"
As he spoke, James picked up the cardboard that Ria had put on the table and began to fan himself. As he fanned, he suddenly glanced at the content on the cardboard: "What are these strings of numbers you wrote? Why do they look so familiar?"
"Your salary list."
"..."
James put down the cardboard, coughed twice, and turned into black mist and left the place.
It was not until the evening that Ria saw him again on the way to the banquet. He kept a considerable distance from Ria, and seemed to be dissatisfied with the fact that the patient's salary was deducted.
Ria thought he seemed to be a joke, and ignored him, but soon, the young man found an acquaintance in the crowd.
The man was still pushing the wheelchair forward with great effort. The rusty wheelchair made a "crackling" noise. The people around him covered their ears and showed disgust to this man, but Riya walked towards him.
"Mr. Detective, why are you here?"
"Ah, Kercha!" Ivander seemed to have just seen Riya, "You came at the right time. Can you help me fix the wheelchair? I don't know how to make it stop making noises."
"I think this wheelchair is no longer usable. Why don't we throw it away and replace it with another one."
"That won't work. I am a very nostalgic person. This guy is my old friend. I can't abandon my old friend."
Riya could not deny this. He looked for mechanical lubrication in the storage pipe of Little Swar, and then put a few drops of oil on the wheelchair. It turned out that his usual random picking up of things was indeed the right decision.
He found that he had really picked up this thing, and even Riya himself had no impression of it. So after some operation, Ivander's wheelchair returned to normal.
Now, he was overjoyed and began to answer Riya's question: "I am an old acquaintance of Mrs. Xikar. I said that I pursued her in the past. How could she not invite me to the party she held?"
"So she still remembers your kindness?"
"Maybe? After all, I am so charming... But Kercha, your clothes don't look cheap."
"I bought imitation high-end clothes. You should know that you can't be too poor in a place like this."
Riya was holding a box in her left hand and a golden bird-headed cane in her right hand.
In the box were some ornaments made from the bones of extraordinary creatures. Their bones were of different colors. After polishing, some of them could even look like real pearls and gems.
Especially the polished blades, they were extremely sharp and could cut iron like mud.
If it weren't for the fact that this thing was a defective product and it was easy to break while using it and splash the blade on herself, Riya would have wanted to prepare some for self-defense.
Of course, some scraps were made into "skin care products". Lia was not sure whether applying them on the face would cause disfigurement, but it should not cause such serious consequences within half a year.
This gift perfectly reflects the sincerity of the black businessman, and Lia will use her eloquence to make this thing magical, so that everyone thinks it is a rare good thing.
In fact, extraordinary creatures are of course rare.
Lia and Evander arrived at the gate of the Xikar family courtyard immediately. He looked at the people in front who lined up to show the gifts and invitations they brought to the waiter, and suddenly realized that the real guests did not have to line up here. They had a special red carpet to walk.
Now there are only some relatively insignificant people on this path, at least Lia thinks so.
James was not among these people, which surprised Lia. She did not expect that the nobles would attach so much importance to the plague doctor.
"What gifts did you bring?" Lia looked down at Evander. He took out a box and opened it. Inside was a beautiful pigeon blood ruby ring.
"I brought my sincerity."
"Very good, it should pass, but don't say it's your sincerity, just say this thing is worth dozens of gold coins."
"But when I bought it, it was only one le and fifty swal."
"...Fake?"
"Yes."
"You have a bright future."
Soon, it was the turn of Leah and Evander to be examined. They took out the invitation letter and showed it to the waiter. The waiter took the invitation letter and looked at it carefully, and then looked at them with contempt.
"Gift?"
"Oh, praise the sun, may you bathe in His glory on this day."
Riya opened the box, and Ivander showed the ring to the other party. The waiter just glanced at it and let them pass.
The gift was just a formality. The most important thing was the invitation. Without the invitation, the waiter would not let these people in no matter how expensive the gifts they brought.
"It's easier than I thought."
Riya closed the suitcase and followed the team in front into the venue.
In the courtyard of the Xikar family, Riya saw an endless area. Thousands of potted plants were placed on both sides of the steps and the road. The ground was covered with white petals, and marble decorative pillars were everywhere.
Those pillars were carved with lifelike children with wings on their backs. They held harps in their hands and seemed to be dancing.
In the center of the courtyard was a fountain, which was full of rare fish that were rarely seen on weekdays. Colorful flowers embellished the hot spring, and there were even a few golden things glowing in the spring water.
Riya found that it seemed to be a wishing coin thrown by someone. He was still hesitating whether to pick it up, but the crowd behind him had forced them to move forward for a long distance.
"I saw you were looking at something in the water just now. Do you want to pick up the money in it?"
Evander looked at Riya, and Riya did not lie.
He nodded honestly.
