In the evening, the gas lamps along the street began to light up one by one, the sky over London remained gloomy, with gray clouds pressing low over the rooftops.
Arthur held up a black umbrella and slowly walked towards the familiar brick building on Fleet Street, the editorial office of "The British".
On the walls of the brick building, there were still a few half-torn old posters, and beneath the sign of "The British", a newly installed plaque from last week hung — the headquarters of the Empire Publishing Company.
The success of Empire Publishing Company's public listing far exceeded Arthur's basic expectations, just like his assessment of the London election situation.
However, there were somewhat human factors at play behind the London election situation.
But what about news publishing? Arthur thought perhaps this had something to do with the nature of the city of London.
Londoners have always lived off news and rumors.
