Chapter 785: Happy Meal
"It's better not to 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 drafted by Count Cruz, and put forward his own opinions on the interior and decoration of the castle.
When Qiao Xiu raised this opinion, especially when he said the word "cheap goods", Count Cruz and the Prophet looked at Qiao Xiu with 'surprise' in their eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Qiao Xiu didn't quite understand what the two people's eyes meant.
"Hey, I only worked with Mr. Joshua for a week, but judging from His Royal Highness Yekana's evaluation, you really don't seem like the kind of person who will save money."
Count Cruz cleared his throat and told Joshua the truth.
Even Earl Cruz was amazed by the luxury of the Nolan Holy Spirit Open. It would cost a lot of money just to realize the Holy Spirit battlefield in the competition.
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 if you save a little, it counts, doesn't it?"
When Qiao Xiu said the word 'saving money', he was very unassuming. The construction of an amusement park was originally an act of throwing a large sum of money into a fire pit to burn.
"I will mainly use copper as the decoration in the castle. The construction site you choose is the highland in the Forgotten Land. There are several plans for the entrance and construction method of this area."
Count Cruz was no longer obsessed with Joshua's different view of money from ordinary people, and started discussing serious matters with Joshua.
The cost of building the "Beauty and the Devil" scene is not a big burden for Qiao Xiu.
The construction of a castle is also familiar to the alchemists of the Iron Kingdom, but they want to change the style of the castle from 'practical' to 'gorgeous'.
This discussion lasted for almost two hours. When Count Cruz and Joshua came to an agreement and Joshua signed the agreement, it was almost dusk outside.
"I will start construction as soon as possible. The amusement facility you entrusted has already started research in Ossenburg. 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.
"Your Highness Qiao Xiu, I think this kind of amusement facility is very cumbersome and requires a lot of money."
The Prophet, who had been silent during the conversation, finally spoke after seeing Count Cruz leave.
She picked up a stack of financial calculation notes on the table, as well as the initial plan for the construction of the amusement park.
"If you want to make human beings happy, building a succubus hotel directly is the most efficient choice, and the talents of the succubus clan can go even further..."
The Prophet introduced the benefits of Succubus to Joshua in a cold tone, which sounds obedient to Joshua.
The bigger problem was that the prophet's appearance was close to that of a child, and Joshua almost blurted out, 'children can't say such things'.
"The Succubus Hotel will be directly demolished by the law enforcement team... right?" Ciri said with some uncertainty.
"His Royal Highness Qiao Xiu can be established in the Forgotten Land, where it is not supervised by Nolan's law, it is completely possible..."
"Prophet, can we discuss the construction of the Guilty Coke factory?"
Qiao Xiu could only use this method to change the topic, the prophet pursed his lips lightly, and she glanced at the account notes on the table again.
Since she became the owner of Mowang Shopping, she has gradually become careful about money, so the Prophet didn't express anything on the surface, but actually felt very sorry for Joshua spending such a large amount of money to build the 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 become popular among humans."
The Prophet still has the courage to invest in profitable projects.
"Her Highness Cecily has built a factory next to the Abyss of Sin Karma. In the future, she will cooperate with Faroshi to build more factories to enhance the productivity of the Demon Realm. If you want to give the highest priority to the factory that produces this drink , I will report to Her Royal Highness Cecily."
"Be sure to adjust the priority to the highest. What you hold in your hand is not just a recipe for Guilty Coke, but also a huge gold mine, which may be bigger than the entire Nolan's territory."
The Prophet took over Joshua's task, and she packed up her materials and put it in her backpack.
"Today... I'll go back to the tavern to celebrate. I'll cook myself." Qiao Xiu said.
…………
The kitchen of Hearthstone Tavern.
"Josh, can you cook?"
Shirley was gnawing on a carrot, while her eyes were fixed on Joshua who was looking for something in the kitchen.
"Won't……"
Joshua found a lot of ingredients in the kitchen. After all, this is the kitchen of Hearthstone Tavern. Although Hearthstone Tavern's main business is selling card packs and drinks, the menu is at the top level of all Nolan's taverns.
But no matter how top-notch, in Qiao Xiu's eyes, it was still very simple. The seasoning of this world was more complicated than Qiao Xiu imagined.
Because of the existence of magic, the branches of plants and animals are a hundred times more abundant than on earth.
"Is there any difference between here and the alchemy workshop?"
Joshua stared at the pile of bottles and jars of spices on the table, which seemed very similar to the alchemy workshop that Joshua went to before.
"Mr. Joshua's dinner will still be handled by our chef."
Mrs. Marina also walked into the kitchen, and seeing Joshua in trouble, she couldn't help but speak.
"Um…"
Joshua looked at the prophet in the kitchen with begging eyes.
She and her apprentices will stay in the Hearthstone Tavern for one night, and the Prophet is attracted to the kitchen by Joshua with "I have a new idea".
"Sharp white salt, silver gray salt, Nirn powder..."
The Prophet immediately understood what Joshua's eyes meant, and she announced the names of a lot of seasonings on the table one by one.
"I still don't understand. Anyway, Mrs. Marina will bring me a live chicken first."
Not long after Qiao Xiu gave the order, an attendant walked into the kitchen carrying a chicken with its beak sealed.
The chicken was tied up all over, but Joshua could still feel the heat from the feathers when he took it.
Qiao Xiu put the poor chicken on the cutting board, and subconsciously opened the beak that sealed the chicken's beak.
"Mr. Joshua!" Madam Marina immediately shouted when she saw this scene.
But it was too late. In the next second, a hot flame spewed out from the chicken's mouth. Joshua let go of his hand instantly, and it also broke free from the ropes that bound him and jumped off the cutting board.
The chicken unfolded its one-meter-long wings, and the hot temperature condensed in its mouth again.
But before the flames in its mouth had time to spit out, Ciri stretched out his hand to restrain its neck, and then knocked the chicken unconscious with the handle of a kitchen knife with his backhand.
"This one... seems to be called Baiyan Chicken. I met one in the wild, and it was delicious." Shirley instantly recognized the breed of this chicken.
"Yes, Miss Ciri, it is the most precious variety in our tavern." Mrs. Marina said.
"Hmm...does Joshua want me to dispose of it?"
Shirley held the chicken neck in his left hand and asked while shaking it in front of Joshua.
"It's better to leave it to the chef..." Qiao Xiu gave up the idea of cooking himself, and felt that it was more appropriate to leave it to professionals.
