Big Capitalist

Selene had never expected that all of her elf descendants were so naive and gullible.

Although the things Merlin brought out were indeed novel and interesting, not to mention the young elves who were inexperienced in the world, even she, the Moon Goddess who had lived for a long time, couldn't resist the temptation at first...

Thinking of this, she subconsciously glanced at the big fox wig tied on her hair. The furry touch made her feel a little comforted.

He glanced at the steaming fried chicken on his left and the bubble milk tea on his right, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly unconsciously.

But when she thought of what Merlin had done in the past few days, she shook her head helplessly. She could already foresee a scene in the future where the elves would continuously supply Merlin with gold coins.

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the window, breaking the silence in the house. Merlin and Selene looked at each other and looked out the window curiously.

Under the watery moonlight, an elf boy dressed in a gorgeous white robe, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand, with a nervous yet expectant look on his face, was standing in front of an elf girl, telling her something affectionately.

Clearly, this is a confession in progress.

Merlin's eyes lit up, and he chuckled, watching the lively confession scene outside the window with interest. He found it quite interesting and couldn't help but say, "It seems like there are a lot of people confessing their love these days."

The Moon Goddess Selene nodded gently and explained, "A few days before the coronation of the Pope of the Moon Temple, the elves firmly believe that these days are special days blessed by the Moon God. At this time, if you confess your love to the person you like, you will receive the protection and blessing of the Moon God. Therefore, every time at this time, such scenes are common."

Merlin turned to look at Selene in surprise, raised his eyebrows, and asked teasingly, "Are you the matchmaker of the elves? Will you really bless the newlyweds?"

"What the hell is Yue Lao?" Selene looked confused. She was no longer surprised by the strange words that Merlin uttered from time to time.

She curled her lips slightly and didn't bother to ask any more questions. She directly used her ability to read Merlin's memory. After figuring out the meaning of the word, she leaned against Merlin and said unhappily, "How can I give you a blessing? I'm single myself. Besides, I don't have the time to care about the love affairs of my great-great-great-great-great-great-grandchildren."

When Merlin heard this, his eyes widened in shock: "What? Selene, you are single?"

It was hard for him to imagine that this Moon Goddess, who occupied an important position in the history of the elves and possessed extraordinary power, had such a blank love life.

Seeing him like this, Selene rolled her eyes at him unhappily, "Why, is it strange that I'm single? In my time, there were no elves who could match me."

She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of pride in her eyes, but behind that pride, there seemed to be a hint of loneliness.

Merlin secretly complained in his heart: Isn't it because you were too violent during your reign as the Elf Queen, fighting every day, so no one dared to approach you...

Of course, he didn't dare to say this.

The Moon Goddess Selene seemed to have sensed his thoughts and glared at Merlin with some dissatisfaction: "Hey, I know what you are thinking!"

"Damn it, you agreed not to read my mind?" Merlin looked helpless and raised his hand in protest.

Just then, a sighing sound came from outside the window.

Merlin and Selene quickly leaned over the bed and took a closer look, only to see the elf boy kneeling on the ground in disappointment, his face covered with his hands, his shoulders trembling slightly, and it was obvious that his confession had failed.

The flowers beside him were scattered all over the ground, and the petals looked particularly desolate under the moonlight.

"Oh, another sad child." Merlin couldn't help but sigh softly when he saw this.

Selene sat up and said calmly, "This is normal. We elves attach great importance to confession ceremonies. A well-prepared confession ceremony and a thoughtful gift can greatly increase the success rate of the confession. The confession ceremony prepared by this boy was nothing new, and the gift was also a common thing. It is inevitable that the confession will fail."

After hearing this, Merlin's eyes lit up, and a flash of lightning flashed through his mind. He was secretly happy: This is a good opportunity to make money! He deserves to be rich!

Thinking of this, he ran out without saying a word under Selene's puzzled gaze.

At this moment, Merlin had already come to the elf boy who was kneeling on the ground with a lost look on his face.

The young man was wearing noble brocade clothes embroidered with gold thread and had a crystal clear jade pendant hanging around his waist. He was obviously a high elf of extraordinary origin.

Merlin squatted down, gently put his hand on his shoulder, and said gently: "Young elf, I think you may need the help of the High Priest of the Moon now."

The lost young elf heard the voice, raised his head, and when he saw Merlin, he quickly stood up and saluted respectfully: "Greetings, High Priest Merlin."

His voice trembled slightly, and he was obviously still immersed in the pain of failing to confess his love.

"Excuse me, excuse me." Merlin waved his hand with a amiable smile on his face. "Young man, I think your confession just now failed?"

"Yes... yes." The young elf sighed, his eyes full of regret. He looked at the direction where the person he loved left and murmured, "In fact, she and I have loved each other for a long time, but it's all my fault. I didn't prepare the confession ceremony well, so I ended up like this. If I could be more careful..."

"Ha, lost lamb, I'm here just for this." Merlin put his arm around the young elf's shoulders and whispered, "Do you want a unique confession ceremony? Do you want a gift that will move your girlfriend to tears?"

"Yes! Of course I do!" The elf widened his eyes excitedly, and the fire of hope rekindled in his eyes.

"Then just leave it to me, I will help you." Merlin said confidently, patting his chest.

"Really...really?" The elf boy couldn't believe his ears, his eyes full of confusion and expectation.

"Of course! But as for the price..." Merlin said, rubbing his fingers, with a sly look in his eyes.

The young elf understood and nodded quickly: "Don't worry, Your Excellency the High Priest, I don't have much else, but I have a lot of gold coins!" He was anxious at the moment and just wanted to win back his beloved's heart as soon as possible. He didn't care about the gold coins at all.

"Okay, I feel relieved when you say that!" Merlin was overjoyed, patted his shoulder vigorously, and laughed. He was already thinking in his heart how to make a fortune from the confession ceremony in the next few days.
