This is also the reason why the Council of Sages will choose America for its main activities in the outside world. America can be said to have inexhaustible mineral magic materials and is the favorite of researchers.
America has too many minerals to use up, and Farlan has too much food to eat. The main trade between these two countries is obvious.
Almost every Franchise Chamber of Commerce with shipping business carries several ships full of food ingredients all the way north along the western coastline of the continent, and then loads them back from America with various metal minerals and magic crystals.
This kind of maritime trade can be said to be extremely profitable, with ideal returns even exceeding 3000% of the cost.
But the risk is also extremely high... Because whether it is Fran's various delicious ingredients, or America's rare minerals and high-quality magic crystals, they are all very tempting to monsters in the sea, and every shipping trip will not be attacked. It's impossible.
Therefore, the risk control of monster attacks must also be taken into consideration. The actual shipping income is often less than one-tenth of the ideal income, but it is still attractive enough.
Many people wanted to take advantage of Elsess's mission to make a fortune. As a result, the entire food market in the French capital was wiped out, and some of the best-selling ingredients in America were sold overnight. The price has increased several times and demand still exceeds supply.
If Valenza hadn't had some connections in the Food Association, many of the ingredients she wanted to buy might not have been available.
Chapter 19 America is so perverted
After purchasing enough ingredients, Valensa and Tia rushed to the second purchasing point.
In the shopping mall of Nola Chamber of Commerce, the small shop run by Ms. Dana.
Since Ms. Dana opened a store here, there have been many rich ladies in the French capital, and the underwear and stockings they wear are all bought here.
Ms. Dana's craftsmanship is excellent and her inspiration is unbridled.
The underwear and stockings she knitted with her own magic are superior to other people's products in terms of style, quality, and comfort. Even the works of some old masters in the capital are not as good as hers, let alone the quantity produced in the workshop. The goods are produced.
It can be said that except for the slightly higher price, the stockings and underwear sold by Ms. Dana have all advantages.And for the ladies of nobles and wealthy merchants, being expensive is the least of their shortcomings.
Valencia has been impressed by Ms. Dana's exquisite craftsmanship ever since she wore them. Now, all the stockings and underwear she wears are bought in Ms. Dana's shop. They were the ones she wore when she was in Serkin Town. Almost all the stockings and underwear have been disposed of.
As for female knights... everyone knows that this is a profession that requires a lot of wear and tear on stockings and underwear.
Now we are going to America. As necessary consumables for high-intensity battles, the stockings and underwear made by Ms. Dana must also be replenished.
Valencia bought out almost all the black stockings in Ms. Dana's store, and Tia also put most of the white stockings and white stockings into her own space storage bag.
"Are you... planning to go on a long journey?"
Ms. Dana asked curiously about Valencia and Tia's large purchasing behavior, which was like hamsters spending the winter.
Elsess's mission to America was just announced last night. Currently, only some nobles and large chambers of commerce know the news.For a small shop owner like Ms. Dana, even if her customers include many noble ladies and eldest ladies, the news has not come so quickly.
But sooner or later we will find out, and there is no need to hide what the king has officially announced.
"Yes, Tia and I are going to America. It may take several months or even half a year before we come back. We can't help but prepare some extra clothes."
While Valencia praised Ms. Dana's craftsmanship, she briefly told her and Tia about going to America, and then asked curiously:
"By the way... Speaking of which, Ms. Dana, you are from America, right? Do you have any good suggestions for us to visit your hometown this time?"
Valenza's original intention was just to ask Ms. Dana, a native of America, what delicious and fun places she could recommend.
Unexpectedly, Ms. Dana's expression suddenly became very ugly, even serious.
This skilled fashion designer and seamstress with a lazy and fashionable temperament, after some hesitation, actually took out all the gold coins that Valencia had just given her, and stretched out her hand to Valensa:
"Give me... those stockings, I won't sell them!"
"Hey?"
Valencia and Tia were both surprised at once. They had known Ms. Dana for a long time, and this was the first time they saw Ms. Dana like this.
"What the hell? Don't you understand Common Language? I will return the gold coins to you. You must return those stockings to me quickly. I won't sell them any more!"
Ms. Dana seemed to have made some determination, and her tone suddenly became firm:
"Not only will I not sell you my stockings, you are not allowed to buy other stockings either... During the time you are going to America, you have to wear long skirts and trousers every day. It is best if they are loose enough to completely cover the lines of your legs. The kind!"
"……Why?"
Valencia and Tia were even more curious.
Tia is a little better. She has no special interest in stockings. She was taught to wear white stockings every day by Valencia since she was a child, and it was just to satisfy Valensa's hobbies.
Valencia is different. In her mind, being able to wear stockings as much as she wants is even considered one of the best benefits of a reincarnated beautiful girl. She spends most of her time in stockings and wishes she could wear black stockings in the shower. .
Now Ms. Dana actually suggested that she go to America to wear long skirts and trousers every day, or to completely cover her legs... How is this okay?
Valencia immediately rejected Ms. Dana's proposal, and half-jokingly asked Ms. Dana if she was taking advantage of the situation and wanted to increase the price.
However, there was no joke on Ms. Dana’s face:
"I'm not kidding! Give me back all the stockings you just bought...those underwear don't matter, but short skirts and stockings must not be worn! Especially in the towns east of America!"
"..."
Seeing that Ms. Dana was so serious and determined, Valencia also put away her smile, thought about it seriously and still expressed her confusion:
"Is there anything wrong with wearing short skirts and stockings in the eastern towns of America? Although America is located in the northern part of the continent with a cold climate, this cannot stop girls from pursuing beauty.
Skirts are undoubtedly one of the most feminine garments, and stockings are the best clothing to protect girls' legs in cold weather!
It is better to say that it is precisely because in America, short skirts and stockings are more fashionable... On the contrary, in France, many girls will wear short skirts with bare legs because of the hot weather. "
"...No, this has nothing to do with climate."
Ms. Dana took a deep breath and slowly exhaled:
"As you said, the combination of short skirts and stockings is indeed the mainstream combination there... My silk stocking knitting skills were honed in that environment.
But it is precisely because girls wearing short skirts and stockings are so charming that the desires of some very individuals are distorted and turned into very terrifying existences.
I suggest you wear long pants and long skirts when going to America, not because you are worried about your legs getting cold, but because you are worried about your life safety! "
"……life safety?"
Valencia's brows suddenly wrinkled.
With her past life memories, she understood the meaning of Ms. Dana's words faster than Tia.
"You mean... there is a kind of perverted murderer over there in America who specializes in targeting beautiful girls wearing short skirts and stockings?"
Seeing Ms. Dana nodding heavily, Valencia frowned even more:
"What about America's guards and paladins? They should have the responsibility and obligation to protect the people's safety from these perverted threats, right?"
"That is for sure."
Ms. Dana sighed:
"In fact, most perverted murderers will be caught after committing only one crime. The paladins and guards there are still very responsible.
But this is only for an ordinary perverted murderer... For a legendary perverted murderer who has committed nearly a hundred crimes but is still at large, the protection provided by the Paladins and the Guard is still not enough. Girls who are easy targets need to protect themselves...for example, abandon the short skirts and stockings and wear more long skirts and trousers. "
Chapter 20 The Legendary Murderer
"The legendary perverted murderer..."
“Hundreds of crimes have been committed but they are still getting away with it…”
These two sentences made Valencia's eyes become completely serious.
In my impression, there is only one criminal with this kind of ability on the continent of Frenoa.
"Is it some reveler?"
"……do not know."
Faced with Valencia's question, Ms. Dana smiled helplessly:
"Although many people think so, no one has ever seen the true face of that bastard. After committing the crime, the bastard did not like to leave his mark like other revelers, and no other revelers did anything to him. To make a statement...so no one knows whether he is a reveler or not.”
"But Ms. Dana, you seem to know him very well? Or care about him very much?"
Valencia thought for a while and then said:
"If the legendary perverted murderer you say is really terrifying, he should have been famous long ago...at least he shouldn't have no impact on America.
In fact, we have already decided to go to America, and we have been paying attention to various news about America, but we have never heard of such a thing.
Moreover, Ms. Dana, you must have heard of the duel competition that has become popular in America in the past three years, right?Most of the contestants in this kind of commercial entertainment show are beautiful girls, and they will also wear short skirts and stockings during the competition. "
"Well, you guessed it right... In the minds of most people in America, the existence of that guy is almost a legend. Many people even don't believe that he really exists."
The smile on Ms. Dana's face became even bitterer, and her eyes even turned red:
"But I'm different...Although I haven't seen him in person, he affects me almost all the time...because, because!"
Ms. Dana took another deep breath, took out a silk scarf, wiped away the tears that she couldn't hold back, and then said hysterically:
"Because the victims targeted by that bastard are almost all my high-quality customers! Otherwise, if you think I live a good life in America, why would I come all the way to France? Just to avoid that damn bastard ah!
When I was in America, although I was not as good as those long-established fashion designers, in the field of women's stockings and underwear, I was also known as a genius designer...even the most talented contemporary stocking knitter.
The store I run in America is also small, but the business is very prosperous... Orders for making stockings and underwear are often scheduled two months later. This is because I only accept orders for two months.
But the appearance of that bastard ruined everything for me... I never want to see those girls who came to me happily to buy stockings and underwear disappear from the world, only to be found with only two rotten ones left. My legs are broken!Woo..."
Speaking of sadness, Ms. Dana, who is 30 years old this year, burst into tears like a little girl who is not yet 13 years old. She changed several silk scarves to wipe her tears but could not stop them.
Valencia and Tia looked at each other solemnly, not in a hurry.
The two of them first put up a sign saying "Closed" on Ms. Dana's shop, and then accompanied Ms. Dana, who was a little emotionally broken, to slowly comfort her.
In the end, Valencia and Tia still did not return the stockings they had bought, but they also promised Ms. Dana that they would take good care of themselves and wear long skirts when it was time to wear them.
Seeing that Valencia and Tia finally took her suggestions to heart, and then thinking that these two people are not that kind of fragile girls, but are very capable, Ms. Dana calmed down.
Upon seeing this, Valencia asked for some details about the perverted murderer.
No matter which aspect she considered, Valencia felt that she should find a way to find and kill this perverted murderer within her own power.
"I haven't met that guy in person...but I have received letters from him, letters he wrote to me in the name of my fans."
Looking back on the past, Ms. Dana still seemed a little scared. Her body shivered slightly as if she was cold, and her arms couldn't help but hug her shoulders:
"On the surface, there was nothing wrong with that letter. It was just praising my craftsmanship, but I found clues from some details.
You should all know that I usually choose more expensive materials for the stockings I make.Although the stockings made in this way will still be torn violently, they are much better than ordinary stockings in terms of corrosion resistance, fading resistance and high temperature resistance.
That perverted murderer is a very bastard. The victims who fall into his hands are all left with a pair of rotten legs and are abandoned by him... There is no information on the legs that indicates the identity of the victim, except that they are wearing the ones bought from my store. Stockings.
I knit my stockings with my magic. During the short period of time when they were first made, some of my magic power often remains, which reminds me of when I made the stockings and finally sold them to someone else. Which customer.
The Paladins and the Guards used this method to confirm the identities of many victims from me... I also knew that the existence of that bastard was not a legend, and he even had his eyes on me. It's about attacking my clients.
After knowing this, the Paladins and the Guards also used bait to fight... Let the beautiful female Paladins and Guards members wear short skirts and stockings made by me, and deliberately hang out every night to lure the bastard to the bait. .
The result was a disastrous defeat... Luckily for the Church of the Sun, that bastard did not take action against Miss Paladin who used his body as bait. Maybe that bastard did not dare to provoke the Church of the Sun, but it was more likely that it was the one who used his body as bait. Miss Paladin is too strong.
But the security guard lady was in a miserable state... Not only did she die in the line of duty and end up with the same fate as other victims, but the security team that followed and protected her also disappeared from the world, and there was a high probability that the fate of the guard would be worse than the other.
It was after this incident that I made up my mind to leave America and follow the merchant ship to Fran to reopen the store... At first, I was worried that that bastard would follow, but so far Fran has not A similar tragedy happened, so that bastard should still be in America. "
"Is that so..."
Valensa had already imagined how perverted and bastard the legendary murderer was, so when she listened to Ms. Dana's story about the past, she was not affected by anger, but kept calmly analyzing the clues.
The first thing that needs to be determined is naturally the approximate strength of the perverted murderer.
"When America's Church of the Sun conducted a decoy operation, what was the strength of the Holy Knight lady who used her body as a decoy?" Valensa asked.
"Starshine."
Chapter 21 Detective Valencia
Can the star-level strength make that perverted murderer retreat despite the difficulties?
This shows that the perverted murderer's strength is most likely not at the level of Yao... even if it is, it will definitely not be stronger than Xingyao.
Valencia made a rough judgment in her mind, and then continued to ask Ms. Dana about the details of the fan letter from the perverted murderer.
This was obviously a painful memory for Ms. Dana, but Ms. Dana still gritted her teeth and persisted, recalling the contents of the letter as much as possible.
"He really likes your works very much...you can even say he is obsessed with them."
Listening to Ms. Dana's description, Valencia gently rubbed her chin with her index finger and thumb, thinking quickly in her mind and then made a new judgment:
"With his madness, paranoia, and obsession with your works, he should have followed you to Farland to continue committing crimes, but he stayed in America instead."
"Yes."
