Chapter 415: Chapter 419
The ball was over. Joshua sat in the carriage heading to the portal to the demon world.
“Mr. Joshua, is this really all you need?”
Mrs. Caesar sat right in front of Joshua. Her gaze fell on the two scrolls and a medal in Joshua’s hand. The Wax Seal with the Magic imprint was engraved on the scroll, the emblem engraved on the wax seal was the national emblem of Faroese.
“It’s enough.”
Joshua opened one of the contracts. The contract was so long that when Joshua opened the wax seal, the other side of the contract fell to the bottom of the carriage.
The content of this contract was the bargaining chip that Joshua had to pay for the films to be shown in the Faroese theaters.
Although Josh had proposed the concept of ‘box office’to Crondon III, crondon III had no choice but to say that he could not accurately count every ticket sold in the Faroese theater.
In this era where bills were recorded with pen and paper, it was too idealistic for Josh to rely on the ‘box office’share. The owners of the theaters could completely rely on making false accounts to avoid the share.
Therefore, Joshua adopted a one-time buyout system, which was to turn the ‘primary crystals’that recorded the movie scenes into clearly marked prices.
This method was no different from the blu-ray cds on Earth, but the blu-ray cds in this world were not that cheap.
There were more than 200 theaters in the entire country of Faroese. If Crondo III wanted to show ‘avatar’in each theater, he would need to buy more than 200 copies.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJoshua did not choose to use Faroese’s currency to settle the transaction. Instead, he chose to use resources.
The resources included iron, food ingredients, and all kinds of primary crystals..
“This is probably the most generous transaction his majesty crondo has ever made.”Mrs. Caesar browsed through the contract that Joshua showed her and looked at the densely packed list of goods, mrs. Caesar could not help but sigh at the value of the movie once again.
In the eyes of outsiders, Jose only used a few hundred ordinary-quality primary crystals to exchange for these ‘strategic resources’that were enough to build a small city.
However, the things carved in the primary crystals made the value of these primary crystals increase by tens of millions of times.
“Actually, I think your king is a little stingy.”Jose did not think that Mrs. Caesar’s comment.
“Stingy… His Majesty, Crondo, is willing to give you and your country more help. You are the one who chose to reject him.”
Mrs. Caesar could not help but sigh at the thought of this. At that time, Crondo III had offered a lot of bargaining chips that were far more tempting than these resources. It was a bargaining chip that no ruler of a country could refuse, however, Jose refused.
“Are you referring to sending the alchemists of Faroese to the demon world to build an alchemy workshop and to help the Demon World Mine Minerals? This is indeed a bargaining chip that is attractive.”
Jose recalled the ‘Beautiful Future’that Crondon III had talked about at the ball. If Faroese really helped the demon world build an alchemy workshop, then the demon world would definitely be able to escape the predicament of the Middle Ages in a short period of time, it would officially step into the Industrial Revolution.
“Unfortunately, I have already obtained these chips in Nolan.”
Joshua was not in a hurry. Joshua’s elder sister, Cecily, had already sent envoys to Nolan to study. Joshua believed that with the prophet’s learning ability, it would not take long for him to grasp the so-called ‘core technology’.
And these resources were only a small foundation that Joshua had laid for the demon world.
“It seems that I was too impatient.”
After listening to Joshua’s answer, Mrs. Caesar sighed softly.
“Perhaps we should put the topic of interests aside, Mrs. Caesar.”Joshua put away the contract, then, he waved his hand and opened the interface of the demon net. “I wonder if your king is satisfied with the ‘parliament’function of the text message?”
“I think… His Majesty, Crondo, should be quite… satisfied.”
A rare helpless smile appeared on Mrs. Cesar’s face when she was asked about this by Jose.
She directly showed the interface of her magic net to Jose. In Mrs. Cesar’s newly established text message account, besides her daughter’s good friends, the most eye-catching thing was a parliament called the ‘Parliament of Faroese’.
The parliament was established an hour ago and was a gift from Jose to King Faroese for the deal.
However, Crondon III was far more enthusiastic about the toy than Jose could have imagined.
‘Minister Danielle! I order you to add all nobles who are eligible to participate in the Parliament of Faroese to the Parliament of the weave!’
An account with the name ‘Crondon III’popped up in the group chat of the Parliament of Faroese, and then gave an order to one of the few people in the group chat.
‘understood, your majesty.’another account with the name ‘Count Danielle’quickly responded.
‘very good! where is Diaz! Where is Diaz Now? Before he goes to the country of steel, let me send him off!’Crondon III sent messages at an unimaginable speed.
In the blink of an eye, a few messages from His Majesty the King popped up in the group.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘I’m… in… My… mansion.’
On the other hand, Minister Diaz, who was asked by Crondo III about his whereabouts, replied much slower. He could not even complete a reply. It seemed to be somewhat intermittent.
“I hope his Majesty doesn’t use this method of conversation to replace the real Parliament.”Mrs. Caesar looked at the messages that kept popping up in the text message worriedly. Just from the speed of reply of the King.., it was enough to feel the king’s fanaticism towards the text message.
“Why do I feel that it’s quite possible?”
Although Jose didn’t have much contact with the king, with the king’s personality, it was very likely that he would happily decide to use the text message to replace the real parliament.
Mrs. Caesar did not deny what Joshua said. Ever since she met Joshua, many important things in her life had been replaced by the things that Joshua had created.
Although she had chosen to accept it calmly, she still felt a little sad when she thought about it.
At this moment, the carriage slowly stopped and Joshua directly pushed open the door of the carriage.
“Please tell your king that I will prepare the resources to be exchanged in a week.”
After leaving these words, Joshua directly got down from the carriage.
For the sake of this resource trade, the teleportation portal of Zenas was specially built in a building close to the Faroese imperial city market.
Some curious merchants had already communicated with the person in charge of managing this place outside the teleportation portal, hoping to go to the demon world to do business.
Although there were only five or six merchants as far as the eye could see, this was definitely a good omen.
The guards quickly recognized Josh’s identity and let him enter the portal.
The portal led to the location where avatar was shot. The Shabby Tavern built by Mrs. Cesar was still in business after the shooting.
This would be the first stop for the people of Faroese to come into contact with the demon world.
