Zosia: Quick Transmigration System-Chapter 24 - 23- Arc 1
The car bumping gave her headache, she just realized that, the body she was in, is a little car sick.
"Millan, how do you deal with car sickness?"
"You can start either by distracting yourself with your phone, like watching videos, playing games but definitely not anything that has to do with reading.
You can also lay your head and close your eyes to rest." Millan, the driver she had hired, to come to this place.
They were going to an underdeveloped area which had the gold mine.
Richard had asked her to come and take a look at the mine and tell him if he would sell or develop it himself with viable reasons.
She was sure he wouldn't recognize her as his niece as they hadn't met for a long time but to be cautious, she had done a little disguise with the help of makeup.
Opening her phone with her index finger, she opened the short video app on her phone.
She hadn't used it before. To comment or like, she had to log in or sign in.
After doing the necessary procedures, she opened the app. The first video she saw was of embroidery.
"Interesting." The lady in the video made the embroidery easy.
'If I can get all types of my cloth sewn, I wouldn't have to worry much as far as I have the apparel. Besides, if I can get all the machines, I can get the clothes in large numbers and sell them. Easy money.' She clicked her tongue as she thought about it.
She nodded her head in appreciation of her thought, 'But it would cost a lot of money and time, which I don't have.' A frown appearing on her face as she thought about it. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
'What if I watch all the videos or have the chip store them, I can learn them in my personal space. If I can do that, then I can get the chip to store all useful videos I can find.
I will practicalize this once am done with sight seeing the place' a glint appearing in her eyes while the frown receeded.
She saved the video in her phone.

"We have arrived ma'am." Millan looked at the overhead mirror as he informed Diana of where they are.
"Ok, thanks. Would you follow me or will you stay in the car?"
"In the car."
"Alright." Zosia fixed her hair before taking her bag and stepping out of the car.
The moment she stepped out, she realized she had worn the wrong shoes for this occasion.
In an attempt to look more professional, she had worn heels.
"Tsk, luckily I wore a cloth that doesn't select." She dropped her bag on the chair while opening the yellow bag on the floor that contained her canvas.
Wearing the canvas, she felt more comfortable stepping on the uneven road.
"Will be back soon." Diana waved bye to Millan as she left to the meeting point as decided by Mr. Richard.
As for why she didn't bother to bring someone with her, she felt she had enough power to deal with anyone that will decided to cause trouble for her.
With her confident steps she walked to the meeting place, elegance radiating from her which left people awed at the sight of her.
Entering the only coffee shop on the street, she walked to the table by the window, which had a clear view of the city.
"Mr. Richard, right?" She tilted her head a little, which was quite unnoticeable.
"Yes, and you must be Miss. Diana?"
"Yes." She drew the chair facing him back a little and sat down.
...
At the Site.....
While they were sight seeing, she noticed that the gold was quite different from the one she knew.
Now they were 5 in number, which includes not only Richard and her but his assistant, an Appraiser, and an engineer.
The gold however was identified to be Impure gold, so it won't be worth that labour put in to mine the gold.
"I would sell it, but who would be willing to buy the gold mine if the impurity level is more than 80%?"
"I can get that done for you, Sir. Well, that would be if you are willing to entrust it to me." She said.
When she met Richard, she was quite surprised by how he looked.
He was more handsome than her father, though less astute. Well, it still wouldn't stop her from acquiring back the gold mine and the land.
"Of course, even if we end up selling it for a lower price. It's better than letting it loose value in our hands.
As for the land, it is where the gold mine is situated, therefore, we don't have to worry about another person claiming it."
While they were discussing, Zosia noticed a red dot.
Being a sniper herself, she knew what such dot meant very well.
"Dodge!!!"
Her loud voice made them confused but they also bent down with her.
What followed next was a bullet.
The bullet that flew over Mr. Richard's head, made them aware of their situation.
Zosia was not ready to confront an unknown enemy, so she ducked, moving slowly, she was able to direct them without any of them being seriously injured.
While they were leaving cautiously, the attacker did not forget to keep bombarding them with bullets.
The appraiser got grazed by a bullet on his left arm while Richard was by his Cheek.
Following her lead, they entered their respective cars, and left the place.
Their coming back there, was something to be discussed on a later date.
.....
In the car....
Zosia was lost in thought as she thought about what happened today.
The unknown enemy they had encountered seemed to only want them out of the mine and didn't care about them after they left, which assured her.
"Could it be his enemy or people interested in the mine." She muttered out loud causing Millan to turn back and look at her.
'Seems like I did not investigate enough. But, or is there something I am missing.' Her head lowered hide the terrifying glint in her eyes.
She hated things spiralling out of control and this had become more profound after she died at the hands of Mira.
She clenched her hand. She didn't want to remember those bad memories. Memories of the fire burning her or the piercing of the jewel into her heart.
She started prespireing.
"Huh! What was that." Why was she remembering those things again and why were her emotions more magnified than usual.
Clenching her hand into a fist, she knew something had affected her psyche and due to how high her soul level was, she was able to know she was being affected and suppressed it.
Zosia tried to identify it but couldn't.
Taking deep breaths, she closed her eyes and leaned against the chair.
'If I can't figure it out, there is no need to stress my brain. It would still come to me and if it doesn't then I will go to it.'
Luckily, her closed eyelids hide her eyes that hold chills that could freeze a person's soul while also hiding the changes happening in her eyes which she did not know.
