An owl grabbed a letter and flew slowly into a tavern called Hearthstone.
It came to the bar at the back of the tavern and placed this letter on top of the bar.
Qiao Xiu picked up the stationery on the counter and began to browse.
It has been five days since the release of "Beauty and the Devil", and the film's terrifying ability to collect money has gradually emerged.
On the first day, the dividends given to Qiao Xiu by the White Jinghua Theater could be packed in two large boxes. On the second day, Sir White Jinghua could only find a room to store the pile of gold coins that almost became a mountain.
In that scene, Qiao Xiu felt that a giant dragon lying on the mountain of gold coins would not violate anything.
On the third day, the dramatist with no business acumen finally learned to be smart, and directly helped Qiao Xiu open a savings account.
The Gold Depository is the prototype of the World Bank. The revolution in the Nolan Magic Industry has also stimulated economic growth. When some big capitalists found that their money was too much to keep in their homes, the existence of the Gold Depository would not be enough. Born naturally.
As for how much money he made in the past five days, Qiao Xiu didn't have time to count it, but he used it all to invest in this Hearthstone Tavern and the development of the game "Hearthstone".
With the financial support of Joshua, in just five days, Marina completed the renovation of the tavern.
In fact, the first floor of this building has already been renovated. It is suitable for the decoration of a shop to be placed in a tavern. Marina only needs to get the drinks suppliers, tables and chairs, and the kitchen behind the tavern.
Now Qiao Xiu is sitting at the bar and looking around, a tavern that can initially accommodate about 200 people has been placed in front of Qiao Xiu.
It's a pity that the tavern was empty, and no one came to patronize it. This situation has lasted for two whole days.
Most of the people who come to Nolan to drink and eat barbecue are dwarves. Their daily routine is very regular, and the rules are fixed in the streets they walk back and forth every day.
And there were no dwarves passing by on this street.
Qiao Xiu is not in a hurry, and he has not planned any promotion for the time being. After Qiao Xiu makes the arcade version of "Hearthstone", Qiao Xiu is not afraid that no one will come to patronize it.
The scene of the popularity of the arcade halls in the early 2000s on Earth is still vivid in Joshua's mind.
Joshua glanced at the stationery brought back by the owl in his hand.
"On how to get a large number of high-quality original spar, the inscription system adapted to order and flow is the best, followed by burning flame and holy light - the 173rd issue of the Owl Penpal Association"
The title of this letter was written by Qiao Xiu. At present, the framework and logic production of the game rules of "Hearthstone" is nearing completion. .
The reason why the production progress is so fast is because Qiao Xiu finally remembered that he has another profession as a magician. The way for magicians to increase their magic power is usually through meditation.
While meditating, Qiao Xiu's thinking was accelerated to about two or three times the normal time. When Qiao Xiu typed hundreds of codes, he opened his eyes and found that only a few seconds had passed.
At present, the only thing that hinders the birth of the arcade version of Hearthstone is the quality of the original spar. To make a magic machine to carry this game, Qiao Xiu needs the support of the original spar of excellent quality. The prototype made by Helland The machine has been completely unable to meet the needs of Qiao Xiu.
In fact, the lack of quality can be made up for in quantity. Perhaps the largest part of the data, that is, the original painting, Hurland used only thirty inscriptions of "Wingerk, the God of Flowing Water and Healing" to inscribe it. Therefore, the storage method of the original painting, Helland is not using data, but... a kind of magic.
The things constructed by the inscriptions are magic in themselves, and Qiao Xiu just completely complicates the construction of these inscriptions, which is the same as using film to store images before, but now using data.
"You can ask the dwarves, they have a lot of raw spar ore in their hands."
This is the only reliable answer given by the pen pals in the owl pen pal club. There are a large number of original spar ore veins under Nolan, and most of the miners are dwarves.
It seems that Joshua really should find a chance to get in touch with this race.
Joshua wrote the thank-you reply on the stationery and handed it to the owl, who grabbed the stationery and left the tavern.
Just as the owl flew out of the tavern, the tavern welcomed its first guest since it opened.
"Welcome, take a seat wherever you want."
Marina went out to look for a chef, Eno was in class, and Joshua was the tavern owner for a day today.
The first guest at Hearthstone Tavern surprised Qiao Xiu. She was a little girl, a little girl with a very special temperament.
Joshua had seen her. When she was at the White Thorns Theater, she was standing next to the man who was arguing with Sir White Thorns. Although she didn't say a word, she exuded a very attractive aura.
"Do you need anything?" Joshua asked.
There is no law in this world that prohibits underage drinking.
She glanced at the somewhat deserted tavern, and finally looked at Joshua.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Qiao Xiu?"
"it is me."
Now the name Qiao Xiu is already well-known in Nolan, although it is much worse than Belle's role as Ino, but according to Sir Bai Jinghua, many people visit the Bai Jinghua Theater just to find Qiao Xiu.
Joshua gave Sir White Thorns a reply that he didn't want to see anyone, so Sir White Thorns did not reveal Joshua's identity to others, and now they only know that after "Beauty and the Devil" ended, there was a name that swiped the screen back and forth. ten seconds.
But like the little girl in front of him who came to ask Qiao Xiu directly, this was the first time Qiao Xiu met.
Obviously, she has carefully investigated Joshua's background, and Joshua does feel that someone is watching him recently, but just watching from a distance, Joshua can't capture the specific location of the other party.
"Are you a friend of Sir Bauhinia?" Joshua's impression of her was only the time he met in the Bauhinia Theater.
"This... it should be considered."
The smile on Caroline's face stiffened for a while, but soon returned to her previous graceful and calm look.
Although she changed a very simple outfit and hairstyle today, Carroll's appearance has not changed in any way, which is enough for many people in the world to recognize her identity - "Flower of Pharos".
Caroline has always been proud of this identity. Any woman will be proud of the fact that many people admire her. This identity is a testament to her own extraordinary charm, but unfortunately... It seems that it has no effect on Joshua. .
"Please allow me to introduce myself. I'm a troupe performer. My name is Carole van Donnell."
You should always know this! Caroline assumed that Joshua had not seen her performance, but Miss Caroline, the flower of Pharos, had basically heard of it as long as she was in the theater business.
"Qiao Xiu, I have a little more identity. Now, I am a cultural communicator. Miss Carroll, what are you doing here?"
"… "
Joshua's calm reaction silenced Carroll for a few seconds, but she quickly adjusted her mind.
"I hope to be involved in Mr. Joshua's next... movie."
Caroline has stated her purpose for coming here. What the stage play brings to Caroline is dull and boring. She wants to try a new way of acting... Or simply being a woman's competitive spirit, she must To beat that Belle!
"It turned out to be for this matter, it can be, but before that, you need to pass my assessment."
The next movie Qiao Xiu is definitely going to be filmed, and Qiao Xiu is currently short of people in the crew. Sir Bai Jinghua has few actors, he is one, and there are only two or three left.
A wild actor came to the door. Qiao Xiu didn't want it for nothing. It's still the legendary flower of Pharossi. You can't find such a cheap deal anywhere.
But first Joshua has to test her aptitude for the next movie.
"No matter what assessment, as long as it is related to performance, I think I can pass it."
In addition to her appearance, the thing that Caroli is most proud of in her life is her acting skills, in which she has absolute confidence.
"Well... Very good, then the first test is you... Will you swear?"
Joshua looked at the elegant and polite girl in front of him and asked.
"… "
Hearing this question, Caroline still kept a smile on her face, but tilted her head slightly, as if asking Joshua what those words meant.
"I asked if you would swear." Joshua repeated his question.
