North of Squirrel Street, Klia Courier Station.
Morgan alighted from the carriage and glanced at the courier station. Compared to the other courier stations operated by the Klia Firm in Noland, this one was far too deserted.
There were only three carriages parked beside the courier station, and the coachman was still dozing off. It seemed like it had been a long time since the station had any customers.
It seemed like the popularity of "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" did not spread from the south to the north of Squirrel Street.
"Master Morgan!"
The Knight Of The White Thorn saw Morgan standing on the other side of the courier station as soon as he walked out of the courier station. He immediately walked up to greet him.
"You're finally here. I've found a place to stay at Squirrel Street."
The Knight Of The White Thorn pointed to a two-story building beside the courier station.
The Knight Of The White Thorn did not have as many extravagant actors as Mrs. Sizer did. Every day, there would be a team of carriages transporting the actors of Black Swan from the Falosi Mansion to the set.
The Knight Of The White Thorn had the actors find a place to stay near the set.
"Kelman, you bought this courier station?"
Morgan looked around the courier station. No matter how calm he was, the servants working in the courier station should still be around at this time of the day. However, apart from the coachman, all the servants had left.
"Yes, according to Mr. Josiah's orders, I've talked to the people from the Klia Firm. They're planning to build a courier station at the south end of Squirrel Street, so I spent 50,000 gold coins to buy this courier station," said the Knight Of The White Thorn.
"This … this is too extravagant. This is enough for me and my mentor to prepare a few stage performances …"
Felicia, who had been following beside Morgan, could not help but exclaim when she heard the figure mentioned by the Knight Of The White Thorn.
Although Morgan was a legendary actor in Falosi, he never relied on extravagant stage effects to win over the audience in any of his performances. Therefore, Morgan lived a frugal life.
Even Phyllis had gotten used to living a frugal life.
The production of the movie hadn't even started, and they had already spent so many gold coins … The word "squandering" instantly appeared in Phyllis's mind.
"It's a necessary investment, Miss Phemes."
Josh's voice sounded from behind her, and she was so startled that she jumped up like a cat. Even the fur on her ears began to fluff up.
"I think this is the difference between a movie and a stage play," Morgan said. Compared to his disciple's panic, he seemed to have sensed Josiah's arrival.
"That's right, there are more differences between movies and stage plays than you can imagine."
Josiah did not know the background of this old actor named Morgan, but judging from the reverence shown by the Knight Of The White Thorn, his identity must not be simple.
"Mr. Josiah, can you introduce him to me? I hope to understand this brand new art more clearly. "
After Morgan came to the set of "The Loyal Hound of Hachi", he became an apprentice with a strong thirst for knowledge.
To him, movies were a brand new performing art. He hoped to learn more about movies from Josiah.
"About this … Master Morgan, if you are the manager of a famous theater and want to perform a masterpiece in a city, what do you need to do before that?" Josiah asked.
"You need to hire a whole carriage, spend some time to get to the city, prepare the crew and costumes, and rehearse …"
Morgan seemed to have guessed the reason behind Josiah's question.
"Every performance requires a lot of money and effort."
"A movie doesn't need these troublesome steps at all."
Josiah took out a blank raw crystal and showed it to the old actor.
"You only need to inject magic into this raw crystal and find a flat wall. That's all you need to do to prepare a movie! Using this method, I can perform "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" in all the theaters in the world at the same time. Even after the actors pass away, their performance will still be preserved in this world and will be worshiped as a classic. "
Josh's last sentence caused Morgan's expression to change a little.
Morgan's old appearance was not a disguise. He had acted in many famous plays in his life, but these plays would forever be sealed in history along with his death.
Perhaps there would be someone who would replace him and play the same role again, but the difference in charm would not be small.
This also caused many famous plays in Falosi to become 'past tense' after the death of the actors. Even if there were remakes later, the popularity would not be as good as before.
An outstanding actor's status in Falosi was no different from a national treasure.
"Mr. Josiah, please allow me to bring a raw crystal that contains the movie back to my homeland after the performance." Morgan asked in a probing tone.
At first, Morgan chose to participate in the filming of "The Loyal Hound" because of Josiah's script and his curiosity towards movies.
At first, Master Morgan had the thought of 'Farosi's stage plays are the best in the world', but after the young demon finished explaining the advantages of the movie, Master Morgan's heart sank.
Morgan suddenly realized that the torrent of revolution would eventually make the stage play retire from the pinnacle of history.
"Falosi should be ahead of the world in terms of art," he said slowly.
"No problem."
Josiah thought of Lady Sizer who was helping him promote "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" in Falosi.
Judging from the message from Carolee, the Duchess was not only facing a huge problem in the promotion of the movie, but her life might also be in danger.
The Church had already made a move against the Blackwood Forest in Falosi. If the Church blamed the demons for the burning of the Blackwood Forest, it would definitely increase the hatred of the people of Falosi towards the demons.
No matter how great the influence of the magic net was, it could not reach Falosi.
Therefore, Josiah could imagine how difficult it would be for Lady Sizer to promote "This Demon Is Not Too Cold" in Falosi. Using a saying from Earth, it would be 'politics is not right'.
If this actor, whom the Knight Of The White Thorn called 'Master', were to go to Falosi to promote the movie, he would become a powerful ally for Lady Sizer.
"Master Morgan, after the movie is finished, I hope you can announce some things to the people of Falosi."
Carolee had already posted the evidence of the Tribunal of Heresy on the spellcaster forum, but it would take a long time for it to reach Falosi in the form of an extremely untrustworthy 'rumor'.
