Chapter 15: Decline
Although Genaha has endured catastrophic harassment by the evil god Naguraji, time is indeed a good medicine to heal the wounds of the soul. With the arrival www.biquge.info of the first snow of winter, with the exception of a few that could not escape from the shadows, many Genoja residents began to prepare for the New Year.
No matter how painful and unfortunate the previous year was, no one wants to carry this emotion to the New Year, after all, it is a new beginning, and everyone hopes for good luck in the new year.
On such festive occasions, the most talked about comedy by the Genoese Guild of Adventurers, the most popular of recent times.
They never get tired of talking about comedy plots that they have never heard of in another world, and although they have watched them several times, or even discussed them a dozen times, they still talk with relish and laughter.
But it's not just those comedies, but the cabaret performances that come with the extra bonus for the Glory Sky Rider girls have also become a hot topic of discussion among young boys and girls.
These dances, full of dynamism and energy, are a little unaccustomed for the elderly, but for the young, such an audiovisual feast awakens the impulse in their hearts.
In the first few performances of the Glory Sky Ride, the young people were only shocked and enjoyed, but later, after getting acquainted with the songs, some of them would even sing happily with the girls during the performance.
Those songs quickly became popular among young men and women, and in fashionable terms, they should be called pop music.
However, as the fame of the Glory Sky Rider gradually grew, the discussion was not limited to the arts, and many people began to pay attention to the girls who performed.
As the center of cabaret, Jane naturally gained great popularity, but Colleen, who had an excellent performance in comedy performances, was also loved by many people. But if it's the popularity of young girls, it should be Jesse Fer, who is very handsome. As for Jacqueline, although she is not as dazzling as her other companions, her pure and cute appearance has also earned her a lot of fans.
Of course, the most discussed topic among the citizens of Genaha right now is, when will the girls of the Glory Sky Rider come to Genaha to perform!?
This question was a question that many Genaha nobles asked the head of the Glory Sky Rider, Fippley, in different ways, and the beautiful and mature woman replied apologetically at first: "Now the city of Genaha has just experienced such a tragic disaster, and it is not suitable for celebration. ”
This justification was initially recognized and understood by many people, but as the wound gradually healed, everyone became more and more eager to come to Genaha to perform.
"Now that the New Year is approaching, I hope that the Glory Sky Rider will make the people of Genoese forget their pain with laughter and welcome the coming year with joy and hope. ”
Now the people of Genoese have made an invitation to the Glory Sky Rider with this statement.
"Hmm...... Preparations are underway for the show in Genoja, and we will tell you about the exact date. After having hung the appetite of the Genoese for so long, Fipley's tone finally relaxed.
But this "specific date" has once again whetted the appetite of the citizens of Genoa.
Fippley actually had some doubts in her heart, she didn't expect Chu Shou to finally agree to the commission of those nobles in Genaha.
The black-haired man touched her hair and replied, "If you push it any further, you just don't know what to do." ”
But Chu Shou decided that this time he wanted to play a different performance from the previous one, that is, an independent performance that only belonged to the girls of the Glory Sky Rider Adventurer Guild.
Of course, this independent performance can't be done by just a few of them, after all, a complete performance, the logistics are very tiring, relying on Maori Sakura, Yuu, Fippley and himself, performing in this way, playing one or two shows can barely cope with it, but if it's two or three hours, it's definitely too busy.
Moreover, Chu Shou originally planned to make a lot of money, relying on the popularity he had earned these days, Glory Sky Riding already had a certain amount of capital, but if it was still developed in this way, the gains were also very limited, and it was time to transform.
As the capital of the Principality of Carbon, Genaha was not only the political center of the Principality of Carbon, but also the commercial and economic center of the Principality.
Although it was ravaged by the god Naguraji and the dark forces, in just a few months, the place gradually returned to prosperity with its tenacious vitality - although not as good as before.
As the sun set, Kos, the owner of the Lubil shop that belonged to Cassifer's shop, helplessly looked at the mirrors behind him that had not been sold for more than a month, and sighed - it was time to close today.
The Cassifer family is the largest commercial force in the city. The glass mirrors made by Luo Bingcheng have a high level of craftsmanship in history, and the Cassifer family has been engaged in the mirror making industry for a long time.
The reason why Luo Bingcheng's glass mirrors are famous far and wide is that they have mastered a set of craftsmanship that allows them to plate silver behind the glass, which is very strong and not easy to fall. The silver plating technology in other places was so bad that their glass mirrors were basically reduced to violence in less than two days - the silver had almost fallen!
The glass mirror produced by Luo Bingcheng, even after ten years of use, is still bright and shining. If it is a glass mirror made in Luo Bingcheng, the range may be too wide, and more directly, those durable glass mirrors are all produced by the Cassifer family. As for the process, only they have mastered it.
The Cassifer family, which had mastered the core technology, should have completely monopolized the glass mirror industry and could sit back and relax. But unexpectedly, there were unforeseen circumstances, and Luo Bingcheng was bloodied by the puppet king overnight, and many members of the Cassifer family were killed. This is not the worst, and what is worse is that because of this riot, the secrecy system imposed by the Cassifer family was broken, and the craft of making glass mirrors was spread.
In fact, this key technology is too simple, just wash the glass with strong alkaline water before silver plating. This kind of technology, not to mention a large business with strong funds, even a small workshop can do it. As a result, the glass mirror was no longer a gold mine monopolized by Cassifer, and began to flood Genaha and even the Lion Continent.
The Cassifers who survived also wanted to revive their families, but due to the slaughter of the puppet king, there was chaos inside, and by the time they began to return to normal, the market had been robbed by other merchants.
Although the Cassifa family has the heart to revive, but it is powerless to regain it, it is not so easy to snatch back the robbed market, and the only advantage of the industrial glass mirror is no longer advantageous, and the Cassifa family industry, which originally had strong capital, is also rapidly declining. If you don't think of any good way, you will do.
The store manager, Kos Casifa, is a member of the Cassifer family, and because he runs the business in Genoha, he escaped the fate of being bloodbathed by the puppet king. Not only that, but he was also lucky to be sent out of Genaha by Wall in advance, avoiding the disaster of being harassed by the god Naguraji, if you really want to describe it as lucky and unlucky, he is more lucky.
However, he considered himself very unfortunate, because the declining family business made his business more and more difficult, and a large store was now shrinking by nine-tenths, and the number of employees was also plummeting, and now he had to take charge of sales himself.
"Chrysanthemums are broken, the ground is full of wounds, your smile has turned yellow......" Kos is singing the most popular song of the moment while closing the door of his shop - the song is a simple score, different from the earth, but the lyrics are Chu Shou is plagiarized and filled, and the artistic conception seems to be good.
"Excuse me, are you Kos Cassifer?" at this moment, a slightly majestic female voice behind him seemed to ask him. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
