Lucky 372

The three entered the shop.

"It's not that bad."

Calix muttered as he looked around. The place was clean and spacious. People could walk around.

"What did you say?" Shoujo's fox ears twitched and she turned around.

"I said the place is not that bad. It's actually quite nice. The surroundings and atmosphere are soothing."

"Hehe, that's the problem with you slap-soil. You don't know what a really nice place is. Poor people shouldn't talk if they don't know what they're talking about. Ain't that right, Lou?"

"Huh? Yes."

Shoujo scoffed and didn't bother to speak to him again. Perhaps she had forgotten that Lou Viola was not a rich person and that her aesthetic was that of the poor. In fact, Lou Viola was a frugal person.

'Slap-soil? Is that another term for poor people?'

Calix tilted his head. He didn't take the joke to heart. After all, Calix was not a poor person.

'Why bother to explain? '

The three waited a few minutes before the shopkeeper returned with a pile of things in his arms.

"Madam, these are the most expensive and oldest items in my shop. Each one reflects history. Like this katana, forged by a dwarf. It is believed to be at least 1200 years old."

The shopkeeper was excited as he explained each object.

Shoujo didn't listen and spoke instead.

"How much?"

"T- the highest is 700 thousand dollars and the lowest is 300 thousand dollars."

He showed 8 items and all of them looked old but carefully restored.

Shoujo nodded.

"I'll buy them all. Here's my card."

The shopkeeper was stunned and his face brightened, but it quickly faded again. The shopkeeper remembered that his store didn't accept credit cards.

"Um... Ma'am, I'm sorry, but I don't accept cards or checks. Do you have any cash?" He asked weakly.

It was good that Lou had a "sugar daddy" to give her money. Her bank account was bloated as hell!

"Here's the money."

Shoujo Ramune handed the money to the enthusiastic shopkeeper. The shopkeeper thanked her again and again, bowing his head. He gave the painting with the protective cover to Shoujo.

The woman put it in her space ring, and the shopkeeper was even more shocked. He realized that the woman was really rich.

"What are you looking at?"

"N- Nothing, ma'am."

Even the shrinking box invented by Cudgel Tech was expensive.

"A pleasure doing business with you, ma'am. This is a small gift, please accept it."

The shopkeeper was grateful and decided to give them antique items. These items were not expensive and didn't cost him much.

Shoujo was given an antique coin. She didn't bother to put it in her ring and would give it to her agent later.

As for Lou, she received an old jewelry box. She nodded and accepted it.

"This is for you, Mister."

Calix received a silver rimmed monocle. The glass was cracked and it seemed he got the least item of all three.

"Thank you."

Nevertheless, Calix thanked the shopkeeper.

He looked at the monocle and rubbed it.

[Ah~ Harder Daddy~]

'Oh shit!'

Calix cursed in his heart. The monocle could talk! He almost threw the monocle away, but he knew it would be disrespectful to the shopkeeper.

In the end, he accepted the gift with a twitch of his lips. The three of them left the shop with different expressions.

Shoujo Ramune was annoyed. She could not believe that she had been given such a trashy gift.

Lou sighed in relief, she thought she had to buy the most expensive one.

'What is going on here?'

Calix was the most confused. He kept looking at his gift as if he was holding a living creature in his hands.
