"See you tomorrow." Meg and Irina stood at the entrance of the restaurant as they watched the ladies leave.
Angela looked back at Meg and Irina, and teased, "I'm afraid the restaurant will shake a little tonight."
"What's wrong? Is there going to be an earthquake? "Barbara asked innocently.
"Maybe." Angela nodded. Then, she looked at Barbara with a smile. "Are you scared? Do you want me to sleep with you tonight?"
"I refuse!" Barbara shook her head resolutely. Her eyes were filled with vigilance.
"Sister Gina …" Angela turned to Gina.
Gina used her eyes to signal Lil Guai, who was already asleep in her arms. She smiled, and said, "Not in the future. I have to sleep with Lil Guai."
"Lil Guai is so lucky. Sister Gina's hug is the warmest." Angela looked at Lil Guai enviously. However, she still caressed her head lovingly.
"The lady boss seems like a very nice person. She's beautiful and generous, and she treats us well," Yabemiya said with a smile.
"Yeah, I think she's nice too. She didn't order us around the moment she came. She just stayed quietly. It didn't affect our work at all." Shirley nodded.
"Also, I think she has a great aura. I've never met her before, but I feel like I've known her for a long time," Phyllis said with surprise.
Everyone chatted as they returned to the dormitory.
…
Irina's official return as Caroline didn't have any substantial impact on the restaurant's operation.
The biggest impact was probably the decrease in the number of girls and young women who were throwing flirtatious glances at Meg. That did lessen his burden.
The number of customers in the restaurant was still the same. After all, the girls' fantasies were pulled back to reality, but it didn't affect them from using delicacies to soothe their hurt hearts.
The 10,000 copies of "The Mermaid's Tale" were sold out very quickly. Meg wasn't in a hurry to print more copies, nor did he print a new album for Anne.
However, the mermaid's picture book was very popular. Customers often came to ask if there would be more copies, and if Anne's other picture books were available for sale.
Facts had proven that there was a vast market for high-quality picture books.
The stock of "Miss Black Cat" was running low again, so Meg printed another 10,000 copies and sent them to Rodu for Eiffel.
Chaos City's market couldn't be compared to the Roth Empire's market at all. Regardless of whether it was the mega city of Rodu or the dozens of large cities in the Roth Empire, they could all handle a large number of high-quality picture books.
The story of "Miss Black Cat" was excellent enough, and with Anne's excellent drawing and color printing, it was easy to imagine how well it could spread.
Meg had just spent some money to buy some information a few days ago. Currently, in the circle of nobles in Rodu, whether or not one had a copy of Ms. Black Cat had already become a measure of whether or not one was trendy enough. There were many people who had purchased multiple copies as part of their collections.
For the children of the noble families who were bound by all kinds of rules, the story of breaking through the shackles and cages of their families and identities to create a new world had a natural sense of immersion.
Compared to the common stories told by storytellers, this kind of story with the young mistress of a noble family as the main character was simply too rare. It was simply a template for a refreshing novel.
Meg had chosen to buy the copyright of "Miss Black Cat" back then because of this consideration. He had a clear target audience, so he didn't have to worry about sales.
The sales of the picture books were booming, so the traffic of the Black Cat Song Troupe shouldn't be too bad. Meg planned to make a trip to Rodu in two days' time during his rest day.
…
In the next few days, Meg seriously wrote out the outline of "A Chinese Ghost Story". After some consideration, Meg changed the female ghost, Little Qian Demon, to the succubus, Little An, from the useless scholar to the useless chef, and from the old demon of the Black Mountain to the Old Dominator with millions of octopus tentacles. The main storyline was basically unchanged.
The incestuous love between a succubus and a chef thus began …
Apart from carefully polishing the script, Meg also pulled Barbara to make some changes to the photostone.
The photostone was a very precious and special stone on the Norland Continent. Coupled with a simple spell formation, it could allow the stone to have the ability to record images, as well as the ability to play videos that weren't very clear.
However, once the spell formation was activated to leave a new image, the old image would be covered.
However, the photostone had the characteristic of not wearing out much. Even if a photostone was used repeatedly, it could still be used for a long time.
Meg got Barbara to modify the spell formation of the photostone. It allowed the photostone to have a directional shooting function. Apart from greatly increasing the storage capacity of the photostone, it also allowed the photostone to have a segmented storage function.
This had basically fulfilled most of the functions of the camera.
As for the playback function, it was limited by the characteristics of the photostone itself. The clarity couldn't be increased too much. Hence, Meg added a monitor to project the images of the photostone onto the monitor. This greatly increased the clarity of the video.
This monitor technology was actually an old technology. Meg only got Barbara to optimize the spell formation so that the clarity of the video could be greatly improved.
For the sake of nostalgia, Meg put the photostone into a box, leaving a shooting window.
The 'camera' was officially born!
After taking out the photostone and putting it into the preset slot of the player, the player could play a moving image. This was the combination of a DVD and a player.
With these two things, the art of movies would be able to shine brightly on the Norland Continent.
"Boss, is it really okay for you to torture me day and night like this?" Babla had two dark circles under her eyes, and she looked at Mag with resentment.
She was the princess of the Moon Nation, but she was actually being used as a coolie. She had to rush through the night to draw up the spell formation, and serve the dishes to the customers in the day. She had never been so tired in her life.
"Come, come, come. Add a big drumstick for supper tonight. Our first set of camera and player products are already out. Half of the patent is yours. If we mass-produce them in the future, you will get a fortune that ordinary people can't imagine." Mag brought a platter of roasted meat and a large golden chicken drumstick over to Babla with a fawning smile.
"I now have a fortune that most people can't imagine." Barbara rolled her eyes. She didn't feel anything for Meg's pie, but she still took a bite of the drumstick honestly.
"Mmm! Delicious! "
Barbara squinted her eyes. The roasted drumstick was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It won her heart.
If it weren't for the fact that her supper was too delicious, she wouldn't have worked so hard to satisfy Mag's weird requests.
However, she was still quite interested in the 'movie' that Meg mentioned.
Recording the story of a real-life performance into a photostone, and then using a player to broadcast it to the whole world so that everyone would fall in love with this story.
What an exciting idea it sounded!
