The World's Fair finally came to an end with the performance of the Black Swan.
The representatives from all over the world had more or less obtained the magical machinery technology that they had hoped for.
This world seemed to have bid farewell to the ancient Middle Ages and used magic to push open the door to the Industrial Age.
Josiah's plan was to bring Noland into the so-called Information Age. However, as long as the server problem was not solved, the Information Age would never arrive.
The black cat that Josiah met in the Falosi Residence was the only one that could become the server.
Josiah was not in a hurry. As long as' This Demon Is Not Too Cold 'officially started filming and the flower of Falosi became the female lead, Josiah would be able to see the elf guard every day.
It was the second day of the World's Fair. Josiah had already returned to the Hearthstone Tavern.
"Madam Marina, I hope that you can buy the two nearby shops and expand the tavern."
Josiah browsed through the bill that Marina had organized. All the recent income and expenses of the Hearthstone Tavern were clearly recorded.
"I'm already working on the acquisition. I've already convinced the owner of the nearby grocery store. The other jewelry store might be a little troublesome, but I think I'll be able to solve it."
Marina was certain that the Hearthstone Tavern was the most successful business she had ever done.
The dwarves' alcohol tolerance was like that of a buffalo. Every night, they would finish a dozen barrels of expensive rye wine in one go.
As the tavern did not have a basement to store alcohol, Marina had to go to the wine supplier every three days to stock up.
However, the real money-maker was the Hearthstone card bag. The dwarves spent a small mountain of gold coins to open the card bag.
As more and more spellcasters paid attention to Hearthstone, the tavern began to feel crowded.
"We can also put the matter of opening a new branch on the agenda."
Josiah didn't know much about the business side of things, so he could only entrust it to the businesswoman. Josiah only needed to grasp the core technology of "Hearthstone" and silently count the money he earned.
After Josiah had finished arranging the development of the Hearthstone Tavern, an owl flew into the room on the second floor through the window and slowly landed on the table.
This owl was wearing a letter, and the seal on the letter was a black ancient wood that Josiah was familiar with.
It was a handwritten letter from Mrs. Sizer.
Josiah opened the letter and skimmed through it quickly. The general content of the letter was: "Black Swan is completely free now. When will the new movie start filming? Where is it? '
The Duchess's handwriting was sloppy, and she seemed to be in a hurry when she wrote.
She only came to Noland for a vacation and didn't intend to stay for long. Perhaps she wanted to personally supervise the progress of Josiah's movie before she left.
"Beauty and Demon" had been in theaters for almost a month and a half. After a while, the audience in Noland would probably get tired of this movie. It was time for Josiah to inject new blood into the White Thorn Flower Theater.
"Madam Marina, do you know of any messy or dirty streets and inns around here?"
Josiah folded the letter and didn't reply to Mrs. Sizer in a hurry. This was because Josiah hadn't found the filming location of "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" yet.
"Dirty streets …" Marina thought carefully.
Marina thought about it carefully. Nolan was a city that represented the highest level of human civilization. It was really difficult to find a place that could be described as dirty and messy.
But in fact, there was indeed such a place in Noland.
"I think Mr. Josiah is looking for Squirrel Street, but … that street is very dangerous."
Marina said worriedly.
"Dangerous?"
Josiah had always thought that the security situation in Noland could be said to be epoch-making. At least, Josiah felt a strong academic atmosphere in this city, which was an atmosphere that could only be experienced in some universities on Earth.
"I've asked others about that street. There is a dwarven entrance to the underground near the street, and it's a gathering place for non-human races. I heard that necromancers often appear there," Marina said.
The reason for the formation of Squirrel Street was that a group of non-human races were attracted during the establishment of Noland. They also came to this primitive land with curiosity for the underground ruins, but their numbers were not as large as the dwarves.
Although Noland was a city governed by human spellcasters on the surface, it was actually jointly governed by humans and dwarves. Under the protection of the dwarves, the sporadic non-human races built a street in a corner of Noland.
It was a very messy street.
"Tell me the location and location."
The architectural style of Noland itself was not suitable for the atmosphere of the movie "This Demon Is Not Too Cold", so Josiah could only hope that the "dangerous Squirrel Street" that the old woman mentioned would fit the description.
Marina saw that her dissuasion was useless, so she could only choose to give up. She did not forget that apart from being her boss and partner, Josiah was also a powerful magician.
The old woman took out a map of the main city of Noland, and used a pen to draw an area in the lower city to show it to Josiah.
This area was located at the edge of the city of Noland, and it would take a while to reach Squirrel Street from this commercial street.
If this Squirrel Street was really as chaotic as Marina said, Josiah felt that it was best to get there before dark.
"What about the Sacred Army that has been following you? Find a place to knock her out? "
Hiri, who had been listening quietly, suddenly asked.
Ever since the World Expo yesterday, the female knight named Messiah seemed to have a bone to pick with Josiah. Although she was currently playing Hearthstone downstairs, she was constantly monitoring Josiah with her "third eye".
She seemed to have taken over the role of her mentor, the Desireless, and was constantly on guard against Josiah.
"If we knock her out, our crime will be confirmed. As one of the three good citizens of Noland, how can we do this? Let's just ignore it."
The biggest reason why the Sacred Army did not dare to touch Josiah was because … Josiah was a legal citizen of Noland. Even if Josiah was a demon, he still enjoyed the protection of the law of Noland and the protection of the dwarves in this city.
The Sacred Army's influence in Noland was at most to keep an eye on Josiah from afar. If Josiah did something that violated the law of Noland and was caught by the Sacred Army, then they could properly deal with Josiah.
