I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 272 The Astrologer is Almost Fainting from Hunger

Pushing open the door of the antique shop, Su Fan walked in and turned on the electric light.

The house, which had been silent for seven days, finally came alive.

Alice followed Su Fan into the shop and looked at the exhibits in the antique shop curiously.

"Is this the store you run? What a unique decoration style."

“Have you never seen Chinese style decoration?”

Su Fan arranged his gifts and sword and asked casually.

"I have seen it, but it's different from these..."

Alice thought back to the Chinese clothing and decorations she had seen in her memory.

"There are no red lanterns or Chinese knots. The waitresses in the restaurant are wearing cheongsams and buns, and there are gongs and drums as the background music. The food is steamed dumplings... um..."

Alice stopped talking halfway because she realized that she knew almost nothing about the mysterious country in the East except the well-known stereotypes.

Now after seeing Su Fan's antique shop, Alice realized that the restaurant she had visited before was just a mixture of many Chinese elements without any intention.

Su Fan paused when he heard this, feeling a little surprised.

The propaganda machine in Europe and the United States is really amazing. Vampires have lived long enough and seen a lot, so they have also been influenced subtly.

"There are many styles of Chinese architecture and decoration. My store is just decorated according to my preferences. If you really want to understand, it's best to read a book."

Su Fan likes reading books on weekdays.

Most of the knowledge retrieved from the media and the Internet are scraps that have been processed twice, and even contain the editors' personal opinions.

If you really want to get deeper information, you still have to look up books and read them slowly yourself.

As soon as Su Fan finished speaking, a black gas emerged from the box not far from the door.

When Alice saw this scene, she felt strongly threatened and immediately became alert.

In his field of vision, wisps of black gas suddenly increased, and then gathered in a spiral shape, transforming into the shape of a woman.

Evil spirit!

This was the first time she had seen a soul body in hundreds of years.

That translucent body was obviously not something that could be touched by ordinary physical attacks.

This also means that ordinary vampires cannot cause any effective damage to it.

On the contrary, the other party can use his treacherous power to do whatever he wants.

Vampires don't seem to be much better than ordinary humans in the face of evil spirits.

Alice felt a little scared and subconsciously shrank back, not noticing Su Fan's strange look.

Are you serious about taking half a step back?

"Don't worry, this is our excellent antique shop employee who is responsible for cleaning the store."

Alice turned her head in disbelief when she heard that, then looked around the store carefully.

It is indeed spotlessly clean.

"In the next period of time, your job is to try to familiarize yourself with the origins and historical background of the antiques in the store so that you can introduce them to the customers..."

Su Fan took Alice around the store and told her things that needed attention.

"The above mentioned ones can guarantee sales jobs. In addition, you can also look at books on identification."

"If you don't understand, feel free to ask."

"Besides that, there are customers who come to our store to request exorcism from time to time..."

Alice felt a little strange when she heard this.

As a vampire, I could just be a clerk in an antique shop, but I actually have to accept exorcism commissions.

I also don’t know how the client would feel if he knew her true identity.

"Exorcism is the simplest. Just show them the sign I prepared in advance on the counter."

“Can you use a POS machine?”

"meeting."

"That's no problem."

Su Fan paused here.

"Most of the people who come to us for entrustment are not wealthy people, and they use POS very frequently."

"By the way, we never accept bargaining for exorcism commissions." "Why?"

"You'll know later."

Some people are completely bringing trouble upon themselves. If they want to pay money to save their lives, it depends on whether Su Fan is willing to do so.

Bargaining? That's wishful thinking.

Of course wages still have to be paid. Alice is not short of money, but she has to show some appreciation.

After all, he is not a devil.

"Working hours are from 7am to 5pm, with a lunch break, food and lodging..."

“Don’t worry, Carlisle has given me the key to the family’s property in Hollywood, so I have a place to live.

You know, vampires don't need to sleep, and I can feed myself."

"There's just one problem..."

"You said."

"Is there any place nearby where I can go for a round after get off work?"

"…I'm not sure about this. You can find out for yourself."

After the little episode, Su Fan continued to explain the details of the work to Alice.

During this process, the astrologer ghost abnormally did not return to the tarot cards, but followed the two of them.

Su Fan was confused, but didn't think too much about it.

It was not until she had said everything she needed to say and left the antique shop that she realized something was wrong.

Why doesn't this guy go back to the Tarot cards and take a nap?
But soon, Su Fan realized a big problem.

Oops, forgot to feed this guy.

The last time the astrologer ghost devoured souls was on the eve of the battle with Baimon, during the two days she was with the Winchester brothers.

It has been almost a month today.

The devoured souls are used to increase strength, which does increase combat power, but the speed of consuming souls also increases a lot.

No wonder she kept following me, it turned out she was hungry.

Su Fan looked at the female ghost astrologer opposite him, speechless.

If you can't speak, you can always use gestures, right? You want me to guess?!

Why don't you just starve to death, you idiot?
I may criticize him in my heart, but after all, he only has a few thugs under his command, so I can't just ignore him.

But he had just returned and had no exorcism commissions.

Su Fan thought for a moment and returned to the counter.

A laptop was then pulled out of it.

That's right.

Antique shops are now also equipped with computers.

Compared to the time when the outside world could only be contacted through landline phones, the equipment in the antique shop has undergone a comprehensive upgrade.

After the Winchester brothers left, Su Fan applied for broadband and picked out a computer.

There are already some good games coming out in this era, but Su Fan, who was used to eating fine food in his previous life, finds them a bit rough.

What's more, practicing is much more interesting than playing games.

Originally, he was thinking of doing some accounting work, but the antique shop's business volume was not large, and Su Fan himself had a quick mind due to his practice, so he could only leave it there.

Today is when it comes into play.

Connect to wifi and log in to the website to search.

There are a lot of posts about supernatural events.

There is a huge amount of information, both true and false, and most of it is stories or scripts written to attract attention.

It is also a big task to filter out useful information from it.

Su Fan selected several with detailed descriptions and complete video materials as alternatives.

As he was watching, a video caught his attention.
