Chapter 306 Economic Crisis

The first match of the world's singers ended at night, and Joshua directly boarded the carriage back to the Hearthstone Tavern.

"In the end, are Leah and Luvita the only ones who are somewhat famous?"

Joshua's fingertips were swiping on the Magic Web interface in front of him. A large part of the posts on the caster forum were discussing 'Leah' and 'Luvita'. The names of the other contestants, Joshua I didn't see it.

"Even the daily discussion section is talking about that black wood elf's post, Qiao Xiu... I also saw that there are still people asking for the record of the song just now."

Ciri sat beside Joshua and 'soaked' in the caster forum just like Joshua.

"The job of releasing records is not in a hurry right now."

Joshua opened the curtains and looked at the Nolan National Theatre, which was fading away from the window. This theater ushered in its most glorious night tonight.

When Joshua walked out of the theater, a large crowd gathered outside... When the Blackwood Elves finished their performance and left the Nolan National Theatre.

After thoroughly experiencing what it feels like to be famous once, people rushed towards Luvita after discovering the brave black wood elf girl Luvita.

Those elf priests were completely stunned by the big scene at that time. Fortunately, this situation was very common for the flower of Faluoxi.

With the help of Jia Luoli, the nine black wood elves escaped from the crowd, and successfully boarded the carriage and returned to the Faluosi mansion.

Qiao Xiu wisely chose to leave through the'back door', because Qiao Xiu was also accompanied by two big figures.

"Are they all asleep?"

Qiao Xiu looked at the eye-catching scene in front of him.

The frost elves Tailin and Ino both sat opposite to Joshua. Tailin presided over the whole day of "Singer of the World" today. After getting on the carriage, he also looked a little tired.

Before chatting with Qiao Xiu for a few words, he fell asleep slowly, and Yinuo, who was sitting next to Tailin, was also sleepy, and with Qiao Xiu's permission, he leaned against the other side of the carriage and fell into a deep sleep.

But now, from Qiao Xiu's perspective, the two beautiful girls fell into a deep sleep unsuspectingly in front of him, still in a 'snuggling' position.

"They really don't even have the slightest sense of guard." Ciri held her magic wand in her hand, and looked at Tailin and Ino who had closed their eyes for three seconds and fell into a deep sleep.

When this lady caster was trying to survive in the wild, she had never slept so dead.

"If you're sleepy, you can take a nap." Joshua pointed to his shoulder, "I'll let you know when we get to the Hearthstone Tavern."

Shirley didn't answer Joshua. After a short silence, Joshua felt the weight and warmth on his shoulders.

Joshua stretched out his hand and gently smoothed the silver-gray hair around Xili's ear, and then waited quietly for the carriage to arrive at the Hearthstone Tavern.

………………

The Nolan National Theater is not too far from the Hearthstone Tavern, and the carriage arrived at the door of the Hearthstone Tavern in about twenty minutes.

When Joshua returned to the study in Hearthstone Tavern, Mrs. Marina told Joshua... bad news.

"The funds that can be used have bottomed out?"

Joshua flipped through the ledgers that Mrs. Marina put on the desk. The recent ledgers were several times thicker than those a few months ago.

The content of the expenses inside is also much more complicated than the simplest daily maintenance of Hearthstone Tavern.

But the balance of the last remaining amount in the previous account book can be so large that it can be piled up into a mountain of gold coins, and it is no problem for Xili to roll a few times on it.

But the amount of gold coins remaining in the account book today is less than three digits...

Qiao Xiu's entertainment guild faced a not-so-serious economic crisis.

"Mr. Qiao Xiu, I made a statistics on the use of assets recently, and all of them are written at the end of the account book." Mrs. Marina turned to the last page of the account book.

On this page, Qiao Xiu clearly saw where his recent money had been spent.

"As expected of a theater located in Nolan Central, the price is ridiculously expensive."

Looking at the account books, Joshua's largest expenditure was the purchase of the entire Nolan National Theatre.

Part of the funds for the purchase of the Nolan National Theater came from Sir Baibuhua, and the other part was supported by Qiao Xiu.

Even though that theater was on the verge of bankruptcy, the skinny dragon was bigger than a lizard anyway, and the money Joshua spent to buy that theater could no longer be described as 'chopping hands'.

"The maintenance of the Nolan National Theater is also a big expense." Mrs. Marina said, "The future value of this theater is immeasurable based on the industry you are currently engaged in, but it is still too reluctant to sell it now."

"I don't think the Nolan National Theater has any idea of ​​​​returning the product. It's always good to make a move before others."

Qiao Xiu's eyes fell on the other two expenses on the ledger.

"Another item of expenditure is related to the magical machine called 'TV'. I have tried my best to save you money in this area. In the end, I bought forty-seven shops and taverns that Nolan is not very famous for. And part of the money was spent convincing 'good character' taverns and shopkeepers to install televisions."

"I became the owner of forty-seven pubs and shops without knowing it? Suddenly, I felt like I was playing a real estate tycoon." Qiao Xiu scratched his head, he really had no idea about money, let alone Financial management.

It is also well-known on the earth as a "hand-chopping party", knowing that if you come, you want it, and if you hesitate, you want to buy it.

During this time, Mrs. Malina worried about losing a lot of her hair in order not to let Joshua's chopping off his hands cause the entire Hearthstone Tavern to go bankrupt.

"Fortunately, these forty-seven pubs and shops of yours have attracted a large number of customers within two days due to the installation of 'TVs', and are currently making positive profits."

Mrs. Marina found a Nolan's map and spread it out on Joshua's desk. The map clearly marked those shops and taverns that belonged to Joshua.

"We can consider opening branches of the Hearthstone Tavern in these two taverns, but unfortunately we still need to wait for a while before we have enough funds to continue producing new magical machines." Mrs. Marina said.

"And what about funding for food?"

Joshua continued to glance at the relatively small amount of expenses below. The next two items were the maintenance cost of the Hearthstone Tavern and the remuneration of the Black Pigeon member organization.

Since the dark elf integrated the entire black pigeon, they have become Joshua's eyes in Nolan, providing Joshua with the latest news from Nolan at the first time.

For this group of hardworking black pigeons, the salary offered by Joshua is of course very...kind.

However, Joshua was only an agent among the black pigeons, and the dark elf had the final say on how much the members could get paid each month.

"Due to funding problems, this plan can only be put on hold temporarily." Mrs. Marina said in a regretful tone, "I have already purchased some food in various commercial guilds in Nolan, but due to the large amount, recently The price of food has been going up."

"How much did you raise?"

"Probably can support 2,000 people for about ten days." Mrs. Marina gave Joshua the most intuitive description.

And Qiao Xiu came to the conclusion that it was not enough.

These grains are to be provided to the Demon Realm King City, so that the Demon Realm King City can survive the famine as much as possible.

Although Qiao Xiu didn't expect to feed all the civilians in the entire Demon King City by himself, this number was still too shabby.

"This is a long-term job. As for funding... it's almost time for the 'TV station' to play its role."

Qiao Xiu admits that he is a prodigal when it comes to spending money, but... as long as he can make money, everything will be fine.
