The second floor is Qiao Xiu's studio. Qiao Xiu has been sleeping here in recent days, and Ciri is no exception.
It's just that things are a little different today, because today Joshua moved all the money he had made since the Hearthstone Tavern opened to the second floor.
"If you put this pile of gold coins in the wild, it will definitely attract a giant dragon or something to come over and sleep on your stomach!"
Ciri continued to brighten the room with illumination, so that the mountain of gold coins glowed brightly.
She has been by Joshua's side for so long, Joshua has done a lot of things that shocked her beyond imagination, but only this time made Ciri feel a little real.
That is money! There was so much money in front of her that she almost never needed to worry about what to eat in her life. If Joshua hadn't stopped saying that the money was too dirty, Ciri would have wanted to roll on these gold coins!
"Calm down Ciri."
Qiao Xiu looked at this girl who was going to be poor and crazy before. Anyone who used to live in the mountains catching brown bears and tigers to eat would not be calm when suddenly seeing such a large amount of wealth in front of her.
"I'm calm."
Ciri took a deep breath, how come she has seen people with tens of thousands of gold coins, and the money is not hers.
"So what are you going to do? Find a dozen boxes and put them in and bury them?"
This is the most common way for some nobles to deal with their wealth. One is to store it in the gold depository, but some big nobles have a place to store their own property.
"It is used to expand the area of the tavern. This tavern is still too small."
Qiao Xiu was sorting the piled up papers on his desk. Economics and personnel management were not what Qiao Xiu was good at, but Qiao Xiu could still do it just by drafting an employment letter.
Since the implementation of the patent law, Nolan's country has gradually begun to pay attention to various contracts, such as employment contracts, which have related laws from a long time ago.
"By the way, Ciri signed this."
Joshua took out a piece of delicately crafted paper and pushed it in front of Ciri.
"What is this?"
Ciri picked up the white piece of paper and glanced at the contents on it.
"Deed to sell." Joshua made a joke to Ciri.
"Then it doesn't seem to make a difference whether I sign or not..."
Ciri pointed to the ruby necklace she was wearing around her neck. It was part of a girl's nature to like to adorn herself with shiny things. Ciri didn't have that, let alone the one hanging around her neck. This ruby can explode at any moment.
"Of course, after you sign it, it means that you are my official employee, and I will take off the exploding original spar around your neck."
Qiao Xiu has been with this female magician for so long, and feels that it is almost time for this female magician to be free.
"Take it off? I can finally get rid of this hateful thing. I don't dare to sleep on my side every night."
After Ciri admitted to knowing Joshua, except for the first few days when they first met, she was immersed in the panic of being kidnapped by demons.
After resigning for the next period of time, Ciri found that life was quite interesting.
After all, the advantage of being by Qiao Xiu's side is that Nolan's movies are being screened all over the country. Ciri was able to see the original manuscript for the first time, and he could even ask Qiao Xiu for updates!
This is the honor of being the number one fan! And... Duties!
Ciri picked up a pen and signed his name on the piece of paper, which gave off a dim light, and an inscription instead of the wax seal branded the "Nolan Business Association" mark.
This contract also took effect from the moment Ciri signed his name, representing that Ciri officially became a painter in the Qiao Xiu Chamber of Commerce.
"Congratulations, Miss Mage, you are now the one who signed the contract with the devil."
Qiao Xiu stood up from behind the desk and stretched out his hand to remove the red rough spar that had been on Ciri's neck for nearly half a month.
The skin on Ciri's neck is very delicate, and when Joshua's fingers touched the neck of the wizard lady, Joshua could clearly feel her body becoming a little stiff.
Gray magic power overflowed from Joshua's fingers, and the black ribbon wrapped around Ciri's neck was untied.
After Joshua took off the red original spar, he input magic power to erase all the inscriptions branded on it.
"Can this original spar be reused?"
Ciri successfully obtained the fourth-level spellcaster certificate a few days ago. She achieved this achievement at the age of nineteen in the Nolan Spellcaster Association. It is no exception to describe her as a genius among geniuses. You must know her sister. Still working on it now.
So Ciri was keenly aware of it, and Qiao Xiu erased the inscription engraved on the original spar.
"No, this is the characteristic of my magic power. If it's just three inscriptions, it's very easy to make it invalid."
The magic of the Chaos Demon can disrupt any magical composition, throwing it into a state of "chaos".
Strictly speaking, the original spar is a disposable item. After Qiao Xiu removed the three inscriptions inscribed in the red original spar, it really became a "somewhat beautiful stone".
"Then leave it as a souvenir for me... Is that okay?" Ciri said suddenly.
"In memory? In memory of Miss Ciri, you were imprisoned by me for more than half a month?"
Joshua can be sure that this lady magician must have Stockholm syndrome, or "I'm going to die if I can't see the next movie script" syndrome.
"It's useless for me to keep it anyway, and I admit that you look pretty good wearing this."
When Joshua handed the useless original spar back to Ciri, he saw a little blush on Ciri's white cheeks.
"I just thought this thing could sell for a little money."
Ciri unceremoniously took the "collar" that had been worn on her neck for half a month from Joshua's hand. Before Ciri could continue to defend a few words, Joshua's office welcomed a new guest. .
"Am I... disturbing you?"
Hurland stood at the door of Joshua's office, looking at his sister meaningfully.
She didn't expect that the crazy girl who used the "Hand of the Mage" magic to hold a beehive around the elementary magic academy would show a shy side when she grew up
Wen Gelk, the god of running water and healing, was above. Ciri was considered a dream lover pursued by countless boys in the elementary academy, but Ciri did not hesitate to beat all these annoying suitors to the ground. .
And it's not magic, it's fists!
After that time, she thought that her younger sister would have nothing to do with reserved, shy, gentle and other words that women should have in the future.
"No!"
Ciri shouted loudly to her sister, and Joshua could only shrug his shoulders to say it was okay.
"Then Mr. Joshua, I have something I hope you can take a look at."
Hurland came here to visit Joshua not just to find her sister, but she saw a very troublesome thing on the way back to the alchemy workshop.
