Chapter 174 Letter from the Queen of the Black Witch

"You look more energetic than ever." Locke and Zach greeted.

"I have learned a lot in the past two years." Zach shrugged his shoulders: "Grandpa taught me a lot, and it also made me look at the world from a new perspective, which is completely different from the previous perspective."

"This shows that you have really learned something." Locke said with a smile: "How does it feel to be suddenly rich?"

"You should have experienced this too." Zach smiled and said, "I specially invited you here this time because I have something to discuss with you."

"whats the matter?"

"In addition to the company and a small amount of real estate, my grandfather gave me a sum of money. I want to put it into the project of Sky Fund, but I think the fixed income of 6% is not enough. 10% what do you think?"

"Wow, Zach, you are a lion." Locke shook his head: "You know I can't promise such a high return while guaranteeing capital preservation."

"I have 0.7% of Time Warner's equity in my hand. If you agree, I will trade it to you at the market price, and the money will also be placed in your fund company." Zach offered his price.

"Even so, [-]% of the income is still too high. I estimate that I will lose money to you every year. How about [-]%?"

"Your investment direction is not a secret, even if Time Warner Group's equity is relatively scattered, it is not so easy for you to acquire enough equity.

After all, Time Warner Group is an excellent investment target for everyone. With these shares in my hands, I will get dividends every year. If there is not enough income, I will not let go.

Let's be more direct, eight percent, my last offer. "

"Okay, just follow what you said." Locke nodded after thinking about it: "But this rate of return requires a non-disclosure agreement to be signed."

"No problem, I will arrange for my lawyer to contact your people." Zach said with a smile: "It seems that doing business is not that difficult."

"You have already started to get started." Locke smiled and clinked a glass with him.

After negotiating the business with Zach, Locke also felt that he did not spend his time in vain to let the rich man find his grandson in advance. He found Ashley in front of the buffet table and said:

"What are you doing?"

"I'm trying to adjust the No. [-] pawn shop you adjusted that day." Ashley said, "But I can't make it as colorful as your adjustment."

"It requires a little skill and reflexes." Locke took the shaker from Ashley with a smile and began to fiddle with it.

"Wow, I didn't expect you to be able to do this." Julie also came over, looked at Locke's fancy bartending movements, and praised.

"I still know a lot, and I will teach you a little bit in the future." Locke smiled and punned: "Would you like a drink?"

"Of course." Julie held out her glass with a smile.

Locke poured a glass for her and Ashley. Julie first looked at the brilliant color, then tried to take a sip, and said with some surprises:
"It's delicious. I've never had such a delicious wine. What's the name of this glass of wine?"

"Pawn Shop No. [-]." Ashley said with a smile: "This is Locke's name. Legend has it that it is a pawn shop established by the devil in a different dimension. Only those souls with strong desires and greed have the opportunity to enter the transaction.

In this pawn shop, the devil lures those greedy people to trade with them. The pawn shop accepts everything, life span, health, affection, and the soul of God.

People can use these things to exchange channel wealth and power, but as long as they have made transactions with pawnshops, even if it is a small transaction, their souls will be gradually infected by darkness, becoming more and more greedy and longing for more.

Those who have traded think that they have made money, but in fact they have already fallen into the devil's trap. The more they desire, the more they will trade, and in the end their entire souls will be harvested by the devil.

Pawn Shop No. [-], there are always only pawns, never redeemed, just like Locke's cocktail, once you drink it, you can never get rid of it. "

"So you are a devil?" Julie smiled and looked at Locke.

"Then do you want to continue drinking?" Locke smiled and looked at Julie.

"Of course." Julie looked at the colorful and attractive wine glass with a smile, and took another sip: "I have already fallen into the trap of the devil, and I can't stop, so you have to keep mixing it for me in the future."

"Of course, as long as you want." Locke smiled and raised his glass.

After the party was over, Locke felt that he had enough rest during this period, and turned on the system again. The new task world had not been searched yet, so he simply entered the fairy tale world again.

This time, Locke appeared in the woods where the three crows used to be. Locke walked out of the woods and was about to leave, but met a guard who stopped Locke.

"Lord Locke, Prince Jim is looking for you and wants to invite you to meet him." The guard said.

After separating from Jim last time, Locke lived in the woods for half a year, which means that he and Jim haven't seen each other for half a year. Locke didn't know why he was looking for him, so the distance was not far away, so he followed the guards to the kingdom.

Jim, who saw Locke again, was very happy, and ordered the chef to prepare a rich dinner. After the dinner, he gave Locke a letter.

"This letter was sent by the Black Witch Queen together with the letter that canonized me as a nobleman, but you had disappeared by then.

I sent people to search for three months, and finally found you, otherwise I don't know how to explain to the Dark Witch Queen. "

Jim spoke with a bit of fear at the same time. The queen's vicious reputation has been spread in many countries with the propaganda of the Holy See. Many people know that the queen is a black magician. Jim is also afraid that if he offends the queen, he will be punished. revenge.

Locke smiled, because of the queen's charming appearance in private, he couldn't connect her with the rumored vicious dark witch queen for the time being.

Justice and evil have always been related to positions.

In fact, Locke has the title of Nightmare Knight because he suffered a big loss from the Holy See's army on the battlefield. It can only be said that the Holy See does have an advantage in propaganda. After all, in the entire fairy tale world, many countries believe in the Holy See.

After receiving the letter from Jim, Locke returned to the room Jim arranged for him and opened the letter.

The contents inside seemed to be just some ordinary greetings, but as Locke cast a spell, the contents of the letter suddenly changed.

"A werewolf family?"

After reading the letter carefully, Locke thought for a while. The letter written by the queen asked him to go to a country controlled by the Holy See to find the leader of the werewolf family and bring him back to the Kingdom of Lawrence.

As long as you control the leader of the werewolf family, you can control a large number of werewolves. This is still very important for the queen who is now relying on her own independent support to deal with the large number of people in the Holy See.

After the letter, the queen also proposed a reward, saying that she would teach him some skills related to making potions.

Since he was not running errands for nothing, Locke naturally had no reason to refuse. He packed his luggage the next day, bid farewell to Jim, and embarked on a journey.
