Chapter 364: business blows
A carriage slowly drove past the bustling streets.
Jose, who had just finished his negotiations, sat in the carriage..
“I’ve never seen his majesty, crondon, so excited when he signed the contract.”
Mrs. Caesar sat opposite the carriage, holding two sheepskin scrolls in her hands. On the scrolls were the many contracts he had signed with Jose.
“To be able to expand one’s territory is something that any king would be excited about.”
Jose took the two sheepskin scrolls from Mrs. Caesar. The first scroll contained the contents of the initial agreement between Faroese and the demon world, the two most important terms of the agreement were non-aggression — freedom of movement with the citizens of the two countries.
The non-aggression-aggression pact was very common in the human countries and was almost the most basic contract.
However, just two years ago, the human impression of the demon world was that other than the dangerous forbidden land, it was an ‘underground city full of opportunities and treasures’, and the demon race was a ‘monster that could drop good things’.
No human would publicly admit that the demon race in the demon world was an equal creature with them.
The contract in Joshua’s hand could be said that for hundreds of years, there was finally a country that was willing to recognize the status and existence of the demons in this world.
“Expanding the territory, Mr. Joshua… Faroese has not participated in any wars for decades, and the relationship between the neighboring countries has not shown any cracks.”
Mrs. Caesar carefully recalled the content and details of the meeting just now, and found that there was nothing about the war.
“The territory here does not refer to land, Mrs. Cesar.”Jose showed the second parchment to Mrs. Cesar.
This parchment was a business contract that Jose signed with Crondon III as a personal, entertainment broadcaster or agent.
“Your King wants me to set up a ‘television station’in Faroese, and the programs in it will be determined by your king. The programs in it will be witnessed by audiences all over the world with the popularity of ‘television.’at that time, I may be able to see the performance of your black swan troupe in the demon world,”Jose said.
“I think I understand what you mean… Mr. Joshua, every time I see you, you bring me a new surprise.”
Mrs. Caesar had only arrived in a hurry when the parliament was about to end, so she did not know much about the concept of ‘television’.
However, just based on the second contract that stated that ‘the construction site of the ‘television station’could be chosen at will, and once the location was chosen, the construction union of Socgen would start construction. The cost of the construction would be borne by Farousi.’‘the workers could be chosen at will’, and a whole bunch of preferential regulations.., mrs. Caesar could imagine how dedicated the ‘TV station’was to the king.
“So, Mr. Joshua, when do you plan to start the construction of the ‘TV station’for His Majesty?”
“I don’t need to manage the construction. I’m just telling you how to operate it. Right now, my task is still to shoot ‘avatar’.”
After Joshua put away the two contracts, he looked out of the window. Suddenly, there was a commotion on the street. A group of knights in silver armor rode slowly through the street.
“What’s wrong, Hiri?”
Joshua saw Hiri, who was looking at the scenery outside the window, suddenly retreat to Joshua’s side like a child who was on his first outing.
“Nothing, I just saw some annoying marks.”
Hiri suddenly pulled on his mage robe hat to cover his gray hair.
“Annoying marks?”Josh only saw the group of knights outside the window.
Mrs. Caesar’s carriage was the most luxurious one on the street. The Knights politely nodded to the people in the carriage as they passed by.
Mrs. Caesar also nodded to them in response.
“They are the envoys of the Frost Kingdom,”Mrs. Caesar explained to Jose. “The Frost Kingdom had invited His Majesty, Crondon III, a month ago to participate in the battle to attack the demon world. His Majesty, crondon, had sent them back because he needed time to think about it. It seems that the agreed time has come.”
Mrs. Caesar did not intend to hide this matter from Joshua. Even if she did, she would not be able to hide it.
She quietly observed the change in Joshua’s expression. The Knights of the Frost Kingdom were equivalent to invading the enemy of his country. If Joshua made any drastic moves because of this, Mrs. Caesar would immediately stop him.
However, Joshua’s reaction was much calmer than Mrs. Caesar had imagined.
“So it seems that I came in time.”Joshua patted Hiri’s shoulder. “They have left. Speaking of which, Hiri, what would happen if they saw you?”
“Well, I came out of the carriage to fight with them.”Hiri pulled down the hood on her head and said.
Joshua did not ask Hiri about the details. It sounded like Hiri’s private matter. With Mrs. Caesar present, it was not appropriate for Joshua to ask.
“Regarding the invitation from the Frost Kingdom, please rest assured, Mr. Joshua. I never thought that His Majesty would participate in such a meaningless war. However, Mr. Joshua, they are also trying to convince other countries…”Mrs. Caesar looked at the silver knights with a cold gaze.
“It doesn’t matter. At least the demon world is no longer an isolated existence. With the first friend, there will definitely be a second and third friend.”Joshua looked at the Silver Knights who had gone far away and said indifferently, “Moreover, I hope that the movie called ‘Avatar’will let some people see that this is not a just war.”
“Mr. Jose, I admire what you’ve been doing for the demon world, but I can’t imagine that one movie can change a country’s view of another country.”
Mrs. Caesar’s common sense told her that it was almost impossible to stop a war between two countries with just one movie, but she looked at the young demon in front of her and had to believe it.
That was because a year ago, Mrs. Caesar did not believe that Faroese would actually become an ally of the demon world!
However, the demon sitting in front of him did it. Not only did he do it, but Jose also made the terrifying sin demon become the ‘mascot’of the aristocratic Lady of Faroese.
“Really? I’m quite confident,”answered Jose.
“I’m very curious about the reason.”Mrs. Caesar enjoyed spending time with the young demon. Joshua could always come up with some new ideas, which was what he needed.
“As long as the movies and games I make are more interesting than the canon of the holy church and the lies of the missionaries, that’s enough,”said Joshua with a smile.
