"Wow! That's a great drawing! "
"Boss Hades's daughter is a genius painter! You've painted me so well. "
"This picture book is going to be a hit. Looks like our opera house is going to be a hit too."
The Black Cat Song Troupe's cast huddled together to look at the picture book. Mara had sent it to their troupe leader in the morning. They only saw it during their break time and were all amazed.
It was a wonderful feeling to see their daily opera in the form of a picture book and completely exceed their expectations.
They also knew that Mr Hades had spent five million copper coins to buy the exclusive rights to use Miss Black Cat's picture book.
These few days, the opera house was closed for renovation. They were all rehearsing in the backyard, waiting for the opera house's renovation to be completed so that they could welcome the audience with a brand new look.
They were originally worried that the frequent closure would cause a loss of customers after just a few days of operation.
But after seeing the picture book, their worries disappeared. Instead, they began to look forward to the scene of the opera house being filled with customers.
"But, the price of a single copy of this picture book is two thousand copper coins. Mara said that she would sell a thousand copies today. That means that she can sell two million copper coins in just one day."
"Wow … Doesn't that mean that this picture book could sell for tens of millions of copper coins?"
"Looks like the troupe leader made a stupid decision."
The cast whispered.
"What are you all crowding around for! Don't rehearse! The opera house will reopen in two days. If you screw up and embarrass me, I'll teach you all a lesson! "Vicky scolded as she walked out.
Everyone quickly put down the picture book and scattered.
Vicky picked up the picture book on the table, the corner of her mouth twitching.
She knew more. Mr Hades had sent a total of ten thousand picture books to Ai Fei. The price was two thousand copper coins per copy and there was a limit of one thousand copies per day.
She had just been relaxing on the second floor when she saw that Mara had finished work.
One thousand picture books had been sold out in half a day. The demand was completely outstripping the supply.
That meant that …
These ten thousand picture books would all be sold in ten days, making a net profit of twenty million copper coins.
With no promotion and a high price, "Miss Black Cat" suddenly became popular.
It would be a lie to say that she didn't regret it. Vicky's heart was bleeding right now!
Her original expectation was that Hades would release an ink version of the picture book in a few months. With Anne's excellent drawing skills and story, "Miss Black Cat" would sell well.
However, after deducting the various expenses, with the meager profit from the black and white edition, the annual profit would not be too high.
However, she did not expect Hades to be so efficient and complete the printing in just a few days.
What was even more unexpected was that he actually took out a super high definition color print!
She was someone who had seen the original version, but when she got the picture book this morning, she almost couldn't tell that it was a copy.
According to her understanding, the printing technology on the Norland Continent was still in the stage of black and white printing. Not to mention such advanced color printing technology, they didn't even understand the basic principles of color printing.
Hades's way of doing things was simply like cheating!
"This is the color printing technology. Did someone smuggle the printing machine out of the Dungeon?" Vicky muttered to herself. She still found it unbelievable.
This was the only explanation that could explain it.
But no matter what, the color printing directly made "Miss Black Cat" the secret to wealth.
The exquisite style and outstanding colors of the picture book were perfectly preserved by the color printing, and the exciting story was far better than most of the picture books on the market.
Vicky was sure that the "Miss Black Cat" picture book would definitely be a hit, and bring Hades a huge return.
And originally, she was also qualified to share part of the return.
"On the bright side, if the" Miss Black Cat "picture book is a hit, then there should be more people willing to walk into the Black Cat Opera House to listen to the opera version of" Miss Black Cat. "Vicky smiled.
Mr. Hades's five million copper coins were not a bad deal for her. She used the money to completely upgrade the opera house from a modified circus to a real professional opera house.
An auditorium that could accommodate a thousand audience members at the same time, a stage that could perform large-scale operas, and a few newly hired theater staff.
These were all things that she didn't dare to imagine before, but now she had achieved them in one go.
Mr. Hades was her benefactor, and this was something she had to remember.
The success of the "Miss Black Cat" picture book was more due to his outstanding business acumen and operation.
She also dismissed the idea of asking Xi to investigate the color printing.
If the printing machine really came from the underground city, Xi might just erase Hades in order to hide the existence of the underground city.
"But the next time I see Mr. Hades, I can still ask him a little. After all, I have to keep a low profile with this thing." Vicky muttered to herself.
…
Meg did not expect that someone would associate the color printing with the underground city, but after pushing the blame to the Night Elves, he felt a lot more relaxed.
As long as they talked about the color printing, he would directly ask them to go out and turn left to find the Night Elves.
"If we don't drink, can't we suck out the snails?" At the dinner table, Barbara held a snail and frowned.
The other girls had similar expressions and looked at the hard shell snails in their hands helplessly.
Mag also made a portion of the new dish that was released tonight for everyone during dinner.
However, after smelling the spicy and fresh snails and taking a sip of the spicy soup, the girls were stumped.
"Slurp!"
"Slurp!"
"Slurp …"
Amy, who had sucked three snails, put down the shell and chewed on the snail meat. She looked at everyone and shook her head. "No, you can suck it out even without drinking. The snails are delicious."
Everyone looked at each other and felt a little hot on their faces.
"At times like this, strength creates miracles." Irina took out a hammer and a small chopping board from somewhere. She placed the snail on the chopping board and raised her hand to hammer it.
The shell broke, leaving a piece of snail meat intact.
Irina thumped it a few times and then ate with chopsticks.
Meg smiled. He had expected everyone to be at a loss. He picked up a snail, took a sip of the soup, and pinched it with two fingers. He demonstrated while saying, "There's actually a technique to sucking the snail. Put the snail to your mouth, wrap it with your lips, and breathe in your energy center. Then, when the snail is not paying attention, gently suck and the meat will naturally fall into your mouth. This kind of snail has a soul. "
"The tail has been processed, leaving only the head. It's all edible, so feel free to suck it," Meg reminded them.
