"Don't use real gold and silver products for the decorations in the castle... Well, just use some cheap ones."
Joshua glanced at the various architectural plans drawn up by Count Cruz, and put forward his own opinions on the interior and decoration of the castle.
When Joshua raised this opinion, especially when he said the word "cheap", Count Cruz and the prophet looked at Joshua with "surprise" in their eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Qiao Xiu didn't quite understand what the two people's eyes meant.
"Cough, I only worked with Mr. Qiao Xiu for a week, but judging from His Highness Yekana's evaluation, you really don't look like the kind of person who can save money."
Count Cruz cleared his throat and told Joshua the truth.
The luxury of the Nolan Holy Spirit Open, even Count Cruz himself was astonished. Just the realization of the Holy Spirit battlefield in the game would cost a lot of money.
And the shooting of Avatar... It's not a movie that can be done with a little money.
"Money is just a number to me, but saving a bit counts, isn't it?"
When Qiao Xiu said the word "saving money", he was very unconvinced. The construction of amusement parks was originally an act of throwing a lot of money into a fire pit to burn.
"I will mainly use bronze wares for the decorations in the castle. The construction site you choose is the highland in the Forgotten Land. There are several options for the entrance and construction method of this area."
Count Cruz no longer bothered about Joshua's different view of money from ordinary people, and began to discuss business affairs with Joshua.
The cost of building the "Beauty and the Devil" scene was not a big burden for Joshua.
The construction of a castle is also familiar to the alchemy engineers of the Iron Nation, but they need to change the style of the castle from "utility" to "gorgeous".
This discussion lasted for almost two hours. When Count Cruz and Joshua reached a conclusion and Joshua signed the agreement, it was almost dusk outside.
"I will start the construction as soon as possible. The research on the rides you commissioned has already started in Osenburg. When Nolan's portal opens next month, you can go there to check the progress at any time."
After Count Cruz left these words, he put on his top hat again, put on his coat and left the alchemy workshop.
"His Royal Highness Qiao Xiu, I think this kind of amusement facilities are very cumbersome and cost a lot of money."
The Prophet, who had been silent during the conversation, finally spoke up after seeing Count Cruz leave.
She picked up a stack of notes on the funding calculations on the table, along with initial plans for the construction of the amusement park.
"If you want to make humans happy, building a succubus hotel directly is the most efficient choice. The talent of the succubus family can go further..."
The Prophet introduced Joshua about the benefits of succubus in a frigid tone, which sounded odd to Joshua.
The bigger problem is that the prophet's appearance is close to that of a child, and Joshua almost blurts out that "a child can't say such a thing."
"The Succubus Hotel will be directly demolished by the law enforcement team... Right?" Ciri said uncertainly.
"His Royal Highness Qiao Xiu can be built on the Forgotten Land, where it is not regulated by Nolan's laws, it can be..."
"Prophet, can we discuss the construction of the Sinam Coke factory?"
Joshua could only change the subject in this way, the prophet pursed her lips lightly, and once again glanced at the account notes on the table.
Since she became the owner of the magic net shopping, she has gradually become more careful about money, so the Prophet did not express anything on the surface, but actually felt very distressed that Joshua spent a lot of money to build an amusement park.
"I'm not interested in the drink you made, but judging from the performance of the two humans and your lover just now, this drink will be popular among humans."
Prophet still has the courage to invest in projects that can make money.
"His Royal Highness Cecily has built a factory next to the abyss of sin, and will cooperate with Farosi to build more factories in the future to strengthen the productivity of the demon world. If you want to put the factory that produces this drink on top priority , I will report to Her Royal Highness Cecily."
"Be sure to adjust the priority to the highest level. What you have in your hand is not only a recipe for sinful cola, but also a huge gold mine, possibly larger than the entire Nolan's territory."
The Prophet took over the task of Joshua. She packed up the materials on her body and put it into her backpack.
"Today... I'll go back to the tavern to celebrate, I'll cook myself." Joshua said.
…
Hearthstone Tavern's kitchen.
"Do you know how to cook, Joshua?"
Ciri was nibbling on a carrot, and her eyes were fixed on Josh who was looking for something in the kitchen.
"Won't… "
Qiao Xiu found a lot of ingredients in the kitchen. After all, this is the kitchen of Hearthstone Tavern. Although the main business of Hearthstone Tavern is to sell card packs and drinks, the menu is also at the top level of all Nolan taverns.
But no matter how the top is still very simple in Joshua's view, the seasoning in this world is more complicated than Joshua imagined.
Because of the existence of magic, both plant and animal branches are a hundred times more abundant than on Earth.
"Is there any difference between this and the alchemy workshop?"
Joshua stared at the pile of condiments in bottles and jars on the table, which seemed very similar to the alchemy workshop that Joshua went to before.
"Mr. Joshua's dinner is still handled by our chef."
Mrs. Marina also walked into the kitchen, looking at Joshua's troubled appearance, she couldn't help but speak.
"Um… "
Joshua looked at the prophet in the kitchen with a look of help.
She and her apprentice would spend the night at the Hearthstone Tavern, while the Prophet was drawn into the kitchen by Joshua's "I have a new idea."
"Sharp white salt, silver grey salt, Nairn powder..."
The Prophet immediately understood what Joshua's eyes meant, and she reported the names of a lot of seasonings on the table in turn.
"I still don't quite understand. In short, Mrs. Marina will bring me a live chicken first."
Not long after Joshua's order was given, a servant walked into the kitchen with a chicken with a sealed beak.
The chicken was tied up all over, but Joshua could still feel the heat radiating from the feathers when he took it.
Joshua put the poor chicken on the cutting board, and subconsciously pulled the muzzle covering the chicken's beak.
"Mr. Joshua!" Madam Marina called out immediately when she saw this scene.
But it was too late. The next second, the chicken's mouth... spit out a hot flame. Joshua released his hand instantly, and it broke free from the rope tied to him and jumped off the chopping board.
The chicken unfolded its one-meter-long wings, and the scorching temperature condensed in its mouth again.
But before the flames in its mouth could spit out, Ciri stretched out a hand to contain its neck, and then knocked the chicken unconscious with the handle of a kitchen knife.
"This... it seems to be called Baiyan Chicken. I've met one in the wild, and it's delicious." Ciri instantly recognized the breed of this chicken.
"Yes, Miss Ciri, it is the most precious variety in our tavern," said Mrs. Marina.
"Um... Joshua wants me to get rid of it?"
Ciri held the chicken neck in her left hand and dangled in front of Qiao Xiu.
"Let the chef handle it..." Qiao Xiu gave up the idea of cooking by himself, and felt that it was more appropriate to leave it to a professional.
