There were still many people on the street. Elena glanced at many people and excluded those who were not suitable. Finally, after searching the street for a while, Elena found the first victim... no, the first customer.

He was a gaunt young man, his face tinged with melancholy, and a wistful smile playing on his lips. A man like that was either emaciated or… cough cough, troubled by love.

Such people are considered high-quality customers.

And I—the Gray Witch—will guide him in the direction of his life. Be grateful to me.

“Hello…” Elena approached the young man. “It seems you are troubled by love.”

"How did you know?" the young man asked Elena, puzzled.

Tsk... You practically have "I need a girlfriend" written all over your face.

Elena curled her lip. "I'm a fortune teller. Your fate is contained within my crystal ball. Would you like me to do a divination for you?"

"How much is it, Si Guoyi?"

Yes, the fish has taken the bait.

“One gold coin.” Elena smiled and held up one finger.

"You're a liar, aren't you?"

Of course not, I'm a witch, and then a liar... No, I'm not a liar.

“If it doesn’t work, I can give you a refund,” Elena said.

"Alright, I'll trust you this once." The young man handed over a gold coin.

Elena wouldn't have quoted a single gold coin elsewhere; after all, that's far too expensive. But here... it's only natural that she's experiencing inflation.

Hehe, gold coins~ My first pot of gold.

Elena pretended to touch the crystal ball, while Qin watched her performance quietly from the side—she was definitely not doing this for the first time, she was so skilled.

Yes, the crystal ball, oh, the glass ball, were all prepared in advance; no one would believe they were bought on short notice.

“Young man, you will meet your true love today.” Elena patted the young man on the shoulder.

"Really?" The young man's eyes lit up.

“Of course, you can wait here for a while. She will come to find you soon,” Elena said, feigning seriousness.

"Okay okay."

It seems this guy really needs a girlfriend.

Then, Elena found a girl not far away, whose appearance and demeanor were above average; this was the next lucky one. Using the same trick, Elena approached the girl.

"Are you longing for your true love?" Elena asked.

"Huh? How did you know?" the girl said.

"I am a fortune teller."

"Could you do a fortune telling for me?"

That's very reasonable.

"Of course, one gold coin will do."

"Huh? Sister, have you ever been in love?" the girl asked.

Why are you asking this?

"How can someone who doesn't even know what love is predict my future partner?" the girl continued. "Speaking of which, the person next to you..."

Qin followed Elena's previous instructions.

She slightly raised her forehead and glanced sideways, though she didn't know why she did it. According to Elena, it made her appear more mysterious.

But to this girl, this silent contempt was a sign of dissatisfaction with her earlier foolish question.

"I understand, my apologies, I made such a mistake," the girl said, then handed over a gold coin. "Please tell my fortune, sister."

Elena paused for a moment.

What do you understand? I didn't know you understood. I don't understand.

Oh well, as long as I have the gold coins, that's good enough.

Then, she mysteriously touched the crystal ball with her hand, waited for a moment, and finally pointed in a direction: "That direction, your true love is waiting for you now."

"Really?"

"I guarantee it's genuine. If it's fake, I'll give you a refund, okay?"

"Thank you, sister." Then the girl skipped and hopped in the direction Elena pointed.

The direction Elena pointed to was naturally the same direction the first fortune-telling youth had been waiting in.

After witnessing Elena's series of actions, Jean was speechless.

What a simple and honest couple they are—so this is how easy it is to earn gold coins!

"Aren't you sure you won't cause trouble by randomly pairing people up?" Qin complained.

“What do you mean by matchmaking? Don’t you think these two are a good match?” Elena retorted. “I’m just bringing about the birth of a new person.”

You know what, they're really a good match. They're both as innocent as blank sheets of paper, so they can be put together without either of them being completely deceived by the other.

Then, Elena continued her search for customers.

Business is certainly not limited to love.

Her powerful "divination" skills covered career, future, family... Under her eloquent tongue and her skillful affectation, the divination proceeded smoothly.

Finally, after her "hard work," she earned dozens of gold coins before nightfall. This is still the fastest way to make money, hehe, gold coins, my gold coins…

“Actually, Elena, there’s something I haven’t reminded you of,” Jean suddenly interjected after Elena had been busy for a while.

"What?" Elena's cheek was still pressed against the skin of her beloved gold coin.

In this world, she cherishes two things.

One is herself, and the other is these glittering gold things.

If I had to add anything, bread would count. And if I had to add something else, I'd include travel.

“These gold coins appear to be issued by this kingdom itself, with numerous duplicate serial numbers. In other words… in other kingdoms, these are counterfeit coins,” Qin said.

amount……

Elena squinted and examined the gold coins again. Just as Qin had said.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy.

Money that can't be spent isn't money. Here, the value of any money shrinks by three times. So, Elena thought she was making a fortune, but in reality, she suffered a huge loss?

The value of the money is so-so, and it can't be used in another country anyway.

"Why didn't you remind me sooner?" Elena said, dissatisfied.

"I see you really enjoy it."

"Well, it's still gold coins, enough to last me a while," Elena consoled herself. "Anyway, there can't be anything more painful than not being able to spend money, right?"

"Excuse me, are you the fortune teller on the street today?" Just then, a fully armed knight approached.

Ok?

“Our king wishes to see you,” the knight said.

what?

No? Could it be that I've been caught scamming someone—or rather, caught doing business wrong? But everyone who's had their fortune told by me speaks highly of me. Which bastard betrayed me and reported me?

"No, you've mistaken me for someone else," Elena laughed. She was a master at spouting nonsense with a straight face.

“I’m not mistaken, she has gray hair and purple eyes, and a gloomy-looking boyfriend beside her,” the knight said.

“Correction, he’s just my friend,” Elena said, speechless.

"So you admit that you are that fortune teller?"

amount……

"Please come with me."

Waaaaah ┭┮﹏┭┮.
