With a signed contract of intent, Valeela naturally does not need to personally come forward to implement the specific matters of the investment.
Butler David brought a trustworthy co-lawyer, and after the end of Coyom Company's extraordinary shareholders' meeting, together with the team representing Audrey and Viscount Glerint, as well as Mary Short - she had achieved her wish Obtained a member seat on the "Air Pollution Investigation Committee" - several major shareholders represented by him worked together, after moderate negotiations, to reach and allocate funds for implementation of the final agreement, completing the planned investment intention.
At this point, Valeera has converted more than 90% of the cash in the bank account under her name into 15% of the shares of Coyim Company.
In the short term, this is equivalent to a higher-risk fixed deposit;
Even taking into account the impact of environmental protection-related laws on company operations, in the minds of others, making such a large investment in a medium-sized enterprise is an option with higher risks than returns;
In fact, at present, even Audrey and Viscount Graint, who are co-investors, do not think that this investment will achieve a high return, and think that it will at best be higher than their expectations for other high-quality investments. A few percentage points.
However, the investment has been completed. In any case, the loose group of the four of them has completed the absolute control of Kaoyim Company.
After returning from giving lectures at Backlund University, Valeela heard the butler's report. While her heart dropped, she also felt some reluctance——
That’s nearly 25,000 pounds of discretionary cash!
Now, there is less than 2,000 pounds in cash left in the bank account under her name.
Not even one-tenth of the original value is left.
However, the remaining amount is still slightly more than Valeela expected... She had previously been too conservative in her daily expenses because she was worried about affecting the progress of her investment due to conservative estimates.
And after thinking about it, Valeela's mentality became more balanced.
The money will not disappear directly, but in just a few months, it will multiply several times, bringing you far more income than you currently have...
What's more, her current savings are probably more than the entire property that Klein has worked hard to save.
Thinking of Klein's financial situation, after Valila was happy for a while, a hint of worry emerged in her heart——
Without the income from the two formulas "Master of Magic" and "Barbarian", does he still have enough cash to buy the "Sun Brooch"?
After some consideration, she felt that the problem would not be big.
Because with her help, regardless of whether Klein has the "Sun Brooch" or not, it should not affect the battle to hunt "Wraith Spirit" Steve...
And after the hunt is completed, even if Klein really doesn't buy the "Sun Brooch", she can take advantage of the opportunity of distributing the spoils to make up for Klein's lack of funds and quietly help him buy it.
By that time, all three prerequisites for Valeera's promotion will be in place.
…
While waiting patiently, Valeela ushered in a new Monday.
After several days of modification and adjustment, her sketched self-portrait is almost completed. It is a half-length portrait. It looks OK at a glance, but many details cannot withstand observation and scrutiny.
Valeela had seen Audrey's sketches and knew that she still had a lot of room for improvement in her skills.
Of course, she tried to practice painting just for fun. In fact, she didn't care much about her technical level, and she would not show her crude works to others... Otherwise, she would definitely hire a special painting teacher to do everything from sketching to oil painting. Learn systematically, instead of just relying on your own exploration like now.
Speaking of which, yesterday was actually a full moon night.
This time, Valeera did not help Maric ease the pain caused by the strengthening curse——
It wasn't that she didn't want to, but it was a decision they made after discussing it.
On the eve of the hunt for "Ghost" Steve, what they need most is to hide until the action begins... So, last night
At night, including all day today, Maric will take his group of living corpses to sleep in the abandoned West Balam dock near the river bend in the southern area of the bridge, with Sharon hiding nearby to provide protection.
Under such circumstances, it would be inconvenient for Valeela to go over and help.
In the afternoon, near three o'clock, Valeela was left alone in her bedroom, ready to participate in the "Tarot Session".
While waiting, a crimson light burst out, flooding her vision like a tide, bringing her consciousness above the gray fog.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool. "
Amid "Justice" Audrey's gentle greetings, Valeera also followed the actions of the others and first turned her attention to Mr. "Fool" at the top.
Of course, her vision was more precise, and she immediately spotted the playing cards covered on the table beside "The Fool"——
The "Black Emperor" card has a complex and gorgeous pattern on the back.
The next moment, everyone else noticed the card that didn't exist before.
While "The Fool" nodded in response to the greeting, a series of eyes filled with doubts and surprises began to wander and collide at the party, slowly and urgently, showing everyone's varying degrees of mood and speculation.
[In view of the general environment,
Among them, the one who showed the most excitement was "The Hanged Man". He had a vague guess, but he was not so sure and a little unbelievable;
"Tower" and "Sun" were slightly better, obviously more surprising, and Valeera's performance was also at the same level;
The "Magician" who had just joined the party for the second time was mostly confused. She didn't understand the "Fool's" past habits. She was even more confused about why everyone suddenly started observing each other;
The "world" is a dummy, motionless.
All these external manifestations of everyone were carefully observed by the "Mind Reader" of Sequence 8, "Justice" Audrey, and she quickly made an analysis in her own mind.
Because of the obstruction of the gray fog, she only got some shallow conclusions, such as——
They don't know that this is a "blasphemous card", a "blasphemous card" that hides a path to God.
But I know!
This made her quite proud, as if she had shared a secret with her parents when she was a child, but her two brothers didn't know about it.
marvelous!
The joy in her heart increased from this, but as an experienced "audience", "Justice" Audrey has been able to separate her mood and expression.
She smiled politely, and after others also said hello to "The Fool", she took the initiative to raise her hand and said first:
"Dear Mr. Fool, I have something to report to you alone. "
Report separately? Klein was slightly startled, but immediately nodded gently and said:
"Can."
He kept looking forward to what Miss "Justice" asked for a separate report, such as... the "Queen of Spades".

On June 1st, I wish everyone’s childlike innocence will always remain!
