Chapter 455: Forced Marriage
York pulled his daughter, Dorothy, to a corner on the second floor of the Chamber of Commerce.
He kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, trying to use this method to relieve his inner ... Panic and surprise.
At the same time, York's eyes cautiously looked through the gap in the window on the second floor, and looked at a young figure standing in the lobby on the first floor.
Joshua.
York remembered the young man's name, and he knew that the young man was the 'buyer' who had come all the way from Nolan.
At the beginning, when York saw the young appearance of this 'buyer', he didn't believe that Qiao Xiu had the ability to buy the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce.
And stubbornly believe that his daughter must have been deceived by this young man!
It wasn't until the other person appeared that York realized how superficial and stupid his previous ideas were.
It was Dias, the ambassador from Falossi, who was also the one who brought the new form of cinema to Ossenburg.
Now that "Avatar" has become thoroughly popular in Orsengburg, York, even if he doesn't pay much attention to the movies, can hear about the theater's booming business.
Undoubtedly, 'movies' have become an industry that is more profitable than patented magic machinery.
I watched Minister Dias and the young man talk and laugh happily, and even showed a humble gesture from time to time.
The businessman immediately remembered that he had seen the name Qiao Xiu in the cast of "Avatar"!
Joshew Arnorod.
A surname he had never heard of, but it hung at the top of the cast list of "Avatar", and had a bunch of titles, such as 'director', 'producer', 'planner', etc......
This series of titles is enough for York to be sure that the young man is the maker of "Avatar"!
"Father, you have agreed to the terms of the acquisition, is there anything else you need to discuss? I'm busy right now. ”
Dorothy didn't quite understand why she was hiding from Qiao Xiu during the conversation.
"Dorothy." The old businessman cautiously asked, "You and Qiao Xiu are... What relationship? ”
"It's a very ordinary collaborator relationship." Dorothy truthfully replied to her father, "He has taken a fancy to the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce, and I will negotiate with him as an agent of the Chamber of Commerce." ”
"Collaborators? How is that possible..."
York's value to the Silver Flower Chamber is on the spectrum.
When he went to Nolan, he could see the promotion of the movie "Avatar" everywhere.
Nolan was a place of trials for merchants, wanting to make a name for themselves there, and even hanging "Avatar" posters on every house, and York was already able to imagine that the young man had more capital than he could have imagined.
With such a 'monster' level existence, it is impossible to look down on a small chamber of commerce like him that is close to bankruptcy.
So York could only think of the only possibility.
"Dorothy, would he be interested in you?" York asked tentatively, "Maybe it's probably for you...... Buy our Chamber of Commerce. ”
When asked about this, a slight crimson look appeared on Dorothy's cheeks, but her expression soon became gloomy.
"Father! Please stop guessing about these meaningless things! ”
"No... Dorothy, you've been an adult for almost a year, and the daughter of the Golden Viper Family Chamber of Commerce has been engaged as an adult, and now that they have children, I... Don't you hope you can find a good home? The young boy all over Ossenburg can't resist your charm, he's also young, and he's ......."
"Stop." Dorothy coldly scolded her father's chatter, "I have no plans to get married for the time being, everything I did was just to save the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce, father, please don't interfere with my marriage choice, and Qiao Xiu already has someone he likes!" ”
"Someone you like? It doesn't matter, it's easy to snatch it with your charm, men actually ......"
Dorothy covered her ears, stopped listening to her father's crazy words, and walked out of the room quickly.
………………
Ciri, who was holding a glass of orange juice and drinking it, suddenly raised her head.
"What's wrong?"
Joshua noticed Ciri's anomaly.
"I just felt an inexplicable sense of crisis." Ciri put the orange juice in her hand on the table and said.
"Maybe the person in purple wants to remember that you failed the assessment."
Qiao Xiu teased with his hand the Deathwing lying on Ciri's shoulder, this Deathwing was completely like a puppy that had not grown up, without half the majesty of a dragon.
"Mentor, she should... There's no way to monitor here. ”
"Then it looks like I should hurry up and finish the things here."
Josiu waved off Minister Dias.
After arriving in Orsenburg, Qiao Xiu took the time to inform Crondo III in a text message, so the minister went to the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce to hand over the bill that recorded the 'box office' to Qiao Xiu.
At present, the matter in Orsenburg Qiao Xiu has basically been dealt with, and all the contracts of the Silver Flower Chamber of Commerce have also been received.
In the "Internet café" decoration method, Qiao Xiu in the future in the guidance of the agent owner Dorothy.
The current word......
"What do you think this is?"
Qiao Xiu looked at an item similar to a slate on the table, the surface of one side of the slate was completely smooth, like a mirror,
"The relics in the underground of Nolan, we have found one or two identical ones in the past, and put them in the crystal palace as a display, but its role is still unknown."
The Grey Man sat down in front of Qiao Xiu, and the owl standing on the Grey Man's shoulder poked the thing a few times with its beak.
"Actually, I also have a collection that I left over from my past time on Squirrel Street when I was fighting a suspicious guy."
Qiao Xiu picked up the stone slab on the table with his hand, Qiao Xiu had met a strange gray-robed man when he was in Squirrel Street a long time ago, and he had left this thing behind when he fled.
When Qiao Xiu injected gray magic into it, the mirror suddenly made waves and then took on a pale blue interface.
"You... It was activated! ”
This scene made the gray-clothed man slightly startled, and he stared at the azure light that appeared on the stone slab, looking a little excited.
But when Qiao Xiu handed the slate to the man in gray, the slate once again lost its source of power and became an ordinary 'mirror'.
"Nolan's thousands of spellcasters have tried to activate this tablet, but nothing has worked, and you activate it instead." The man in gray returned the slate to Qiao Xiu, "Does this have anything to do with your race?" ”
The man in gray hadn't forgotten that the young man sitting in front of him was a Chaos Demon.
"I don't know, but even if this thing is activated... It doesn't seem to work. ”
Qiao Xiu touched the mirror with his hand, and the slate looked a bit like a mobile phone on the earth.
But this thing is not as comprehensive as a mobile phone, and after Qiao Xiu enters the magic power into it, it can only stay on one screen.
There is only a circular ripple in this picture, which is constantly spreading outward.
"There are still many doubts about these relics, so if you have time in the future, come to my Mage Tower."
The Gray-Clad had also given up on understanding the role of the thing from the circular ripples, but Qiao Xiu's ability to activate it gave him a new breakthrough.
"I also have some questions about web building that I want to ask you."
"I'll have time to visit."
Not long after Qiao Xiu agreed to the Grayman's request, Dorothy also walked down from the second floor.
"You're done talking to your father?" Qiao Xiu asked.
"Hmm."
Dorothy's expression was a little unusual when she remembered the conversation she had just had, but she quickly controlled her emotions.
"I can already start working on the renovation of the hall on the first floor." Dorothy pulled the conversation back to business.
"I can give you some sketches of the design in this regard, and it's not too difficult."
What Qiao Xiu was going to set out to build was the world's first 'Internet café', and Dorothy didn't have any experience to refer to before this.
This is also a historical event, and in the future, this girl is likely to be called the 'mother of Internet cafes' or something.
"In order to provide the user's experience, Mowang actually has some external facilities."
Qiao Xiu remembered the original crystal mouse that he had given to Ciri and Caroli before, and it was time to popularize it in this Internet café.
