Original God, but the real world

Chapter 29-29-Action and casual
The piano was a spur-of-the-moment idea.

Before finding Jiang Qing, she was just curious about what kind of advice this stranger could give.

As for the subsequent debt assumption and seeking cooperation from Qixing, these were all unexpected.

Given her status, even if it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, she still made very thoughtful arrangements.

Soon, a letter was delivered directly to Ningguang's Qun Yu Pavilion.

Teyvat has ordinary messengers to deliver letters, and there is also a way to use alchemical items to quickly transmit information.

When communicating with Ningguang, of course, I took the latter approach.

On the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Tianquan Star, the most famous among the Seven Stars, seemed to be thinking about something.

Her fingers were playing with the pipe, and she was leaning lazily on the bench with a casual look on her face.

[Cooperation... This is not the usual style of this acting leader.]

The form of the letter was consistent with Qin's usual style; even the edges of the letter paper were very neat, and the handwriting and words were similarly rigorous and serious.

This was indeed written by Qin, but the content of the letter might not be entirely based on Qin's consideration.

"Baiwen."

She turned the pipe gently between her fingers.

"Retrieve the files of the General Affairs Department, a person named Jiang Qing."

In the entire letter, Qin briefly described Mond's current predicament and then put forward her request for cooperation.

Leaving aside the exchange of interests, Ningguang only needs to slightly intimidate Tartaglia who is stationed in Liyue and divert the attention of the Fatui.

The core of this matter is not what Liyue did, but the instinct of mobilizing Zhidong to confront Liyue.

You don't need to do anything, as long as you move, I will keep an eye on you.

This is an instinctive reaction left after years of confrontation between Zhidong and Liyue.

As long as there is any movement in Liyue, the [rich] will inevitably let [Bank of the North] lie dormant for a while, ready to make a big move on Liyue at any time.

Everyone's hostility has long become a habit.

And at this time, Mond can do his own thing.

In other words, Qin wants to use Liyue as a shield and a gun.

It's a good idea to do two jobs with one profit.

But Ningguang did not resist.

Liyue usually does not care about the loss if it can cause trouble to Winter and defeat the Fatui.

Looking at the seven countries, the only country that is qualified to confront Liyue is Zhidong.

As long as Zhidong falls, Liyue can take up residence at the top.

Mond is not the enemy, and Mond will not become the enemy.

What's more, Qin had made a promise first. Even if everyone had the same interests, she was not here to get something for free. Instead, she was making a real equal exchange, using her interests to gain Liyue's help.

Ningguang had no reason to refuse.

Qin has such a good reputation.

Her reputation for helping every Mondstadt person, even for small things like catching cats and dogs, always sounded stupid with this information.

The acting captain, the true "King" of Mondstadt, has to be busy with such things, simply because of the reason "If you ask why - isn't it the duty of a knight to help those in distress?"

As long as you seek Jean's help, even if it has nothing to do with the affairs of the Knights, she will choose to lend a helping hand.

This is of course a bit silly.

But having such "stupid people" as friends in life is actually a great blessing.

Do we have to have only "friends" acquired through the exchange of interests? Who would reject Qin?

Ningguang would not refuse.

The status of both parties is equal, and there is even no god to restrict Mondstadt. Jyn is the true king of Mondstadt.

The Seven Stars are the seven people who jointly govern Liyue and check and balance each other.

In terms of status alone, Qin is even superior.

A friend with a kind and benevolent character, respected status and noble identity has paid his own interests and wants to shake up Liyue's long-standing rival. Ningguang doesn't know what reason she should find to refuse the other party.

And at the end of the letter, Qin briefly mentioned it.

She used her own reputation as collateral to repay a debt for a man named Jiang Qing.

When the dragon disaster is over, Qin will find someone to pay off this debt.

But before that, please Ningguang sort out your debts first.

There was no need to cover up Jiang Qing's affairs, and Qin, an upright person, made his request more directly.

This also aroused Ningguang's interest.

Someone Qin values ​​and is willing to personally guarantee.

“It’s not easy for an ordinary businessman to owe this level of chips.”

It is normal to owe money, but it is not easy to magnify this number.

Because most people would have the idea of ​​stop loss.

He knows your level and ability, and if he is sure that you cannot afford it, he will not continue to invest, but will look for previous sunk costs.

Except for gambling dogs.

The fact that Jiang Qing was able to incur such a debt showed that those people believed he could bring in equal amounts of profits.

Ningguang showed some interest.

Her feelings for Jiang Qing mainly come from Qin.

She should also observe the person who is valued by Qin and even mentioned specifically.

Baiwen quickly brought back the file, and Ningguang flipped through it quickly.

Isn't this... isn't this just pure bad luck?
"We have encountered Inazuma's isolation order, and there is absolutely nothing we can do about it."

Ningguang frowned slightly.

Strictly speaking, the degree of damage caused to Inazuma by the lockdown order was no less severe.

Liyue lost a trading partner, and Inazuma completely locked herself on the island, refusing any communication or interaction with the mainland.

"According to Beidou, the current situation in Inazuma is full of chaos, and there is also the Eye Hunting Order and the resistance army of the other shogunate... What kind of considerations did Lord Narukami have in mind when making such a decision?"

The more information you have, the more difficult it is to think about a problem simply.

Ningguang didn't dare to think that Ming Shen was a psychopath for making such a decision - it was too presumptuous.

She could only think that perhaps the God of Thunder had obtained some information, made some determination, and finally made such a choice.

In short, the gods’ choices must have their reasons and causes.

Ningguang didn't think much about it.

[Lockdown Order] Since this is a decree issued by the God of Thunder himself, locking down the country has become an inevitable thing.

Unless someone can make Thor change his mind...the question is who has this ability?
In other words, Inazuma's seclusion is irreversible.

Under normal circumstances, in Ningguang's era, she no longer needs to consider the variable of Inazuma.

In fact, this is true. If there was no Ying, General Raiden would really exercise divine power and rule the entire Inazuma.

He is a puppet that does not change, but only moves toward the intended goal.

But Ying came.

"Before this, Jiang Qing was just a qualified businessman." Ningguang said with a hint of amusement, "But he suddenly came back from Inazuma and showed abilities that were worthy of Qin's attention."

"Such rapid growth, is it a threat between life and death, or... someone has replaced his identity?"

There was so much chaos on Inazuma's side that Ningguang didn't find anything strange about what happened.

Also, how did this person come back?
Ningguang suddenly became interested.

“Go knock on the Northland Bank.” Ningguang’s eyes flickered slightly. “Give some of the evidence we have to Yan Fei, and ask her to talk to that Young Master about the Fatui’s crimes.”

The movement doesn't need to be too loud.

There is no need to be too serious about helping Mond. Just try your best and give an explanation.

"Yes, Lord Ningguang."

Bai Xiao didn't ask anything, but just took the task respectfully.

Judging from the rough way the Fatui acted, Qixing actually had a lot of relevant evidence in his hands.

However, these evidences are too minor. Throwing them out rashly may be able to kill a few backbone forces or some high-ranking members of the Fatui, but it will have no practical effect on enemies at the level of the executive officers.

If you're just tapping it, you don't need to take it too seriously.

With Yan Fei's ability, it is enough to teach the Fatui a lesson.

Once Ningguang takes action, the outside world will think that this is the beginning of a new round of confrontation.

This is exactly the effect Mondstadt wanted. Ningguang's favorability towards Jean is not worth it for her to really start a confrontation with Zhidong without authorization.

The Winter Solstice is a country, and the Seven Stars are seven people.

Qin only applied for assistance from her, and the chips she paid were also for her alone.

As a Tianquan star, Ningguang certainly has her own initiative.

But if she made any big moves, it would be difficult for her to explain to her colleagues.

The Seven Stars certainly form a community when it comes to Liyue’s interests, but personally, they are not without any disputes.

The dispute covered a wide range of areas, and it was a rare occasion that they could unite for the Liyue alien.

In the future, there will be a Mr. Zhiyi. In order to ascend to the throne of Tianshu Star, he cooperated with the Fatui. This shows the various impacts brought about by the power struggle... However, this is also after the Rock God's long journey. Now that the Rock God is still in power, everyone is in harmony, whether really or not, and no one will do anything stupid at this time.

Liyue's God of Rock has been in power for three thousand seven hundred years, and He knows more about the little tricks of mortals than they do.

This is not a God who is indifferent to worldly affairs and suppresses everything by force. It is very difficult to deceive Him.

The God of Contracts, the God of Commerce... When it comes to playing tricks, Morax is better than Qixing.

What else do you want if you don't obey a god who is impossible to defeat or provoke but is better at playing political games than you?
Only when someone runs you over to death do you know how to write the word sensible?
There's no need. It's too late.

Among the seven stars of this era, Ningguang is the most famous and has the most power. The reason for this is simple.

He started from scratch and reached the top of the Seven Stars at a young age. He now sits high up in the Jade Pavilion, overlooking the entire Liyue.

It is normal for a person to be admired and envied by others when he can achieve this level.

Ningguang lowered her eyes and still found someone.

"Go to Mondstadt and help me investigate this person." Ningguang said in a relaxed tone, "I want to know how he gained the attention of the acting leader of Mondstadt."

Jiang Qing's experience seemed like pure bad luck to him, but it was still quite entertaining to others.

"What if she's just good-looking? What's wrong with that? Can't the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius be a girl whose heart is touched by a romance novel?" The person on the other end said lazily, "I have a proper job too."

“Haha.” Ningguang chuckled. “Aren’t you used to accumulating work and then finishing it all at once?”

"Take care of this matter, and leave your work to others."

Saying it means not saying it.

As for the job she does, if it can be handed over to someone else, it is equivalent to having someone who can completely replace her position.

Then she won't be of much use.

It is because only she can do it well that the position belongs to her.

Power and responsibility are equal, and the reason she can enjoy this privilege is of course because she is the most suitable one.

“Okay, okay, okay.” The woman named Ye Lan scratched her hair, “You are the boss, you have the final say.”

"But let me make this clear first. We don't have many people stationed in Mond. Wherever I go, I basically have to start from scratch." She raised her index finger and the dice spun on her fingertips. "Don't be in a hurry."

“It’s just a spur-of-the-moment idea.” Ningguang shook her head and smiled faintly, “Just do as you see fit.”

Tsk.

I suddenly decided to make another trip myself.

“Just think of it as giving yourself a break,” Ningguang soothed.

Ye Lan said lazily, "Don't lie to me."

"It is said that the Wind God has awakened in Mondstadt. I can find out from any book that records the history of Mondstadt that the Wind God has appeared three times in history, and all three times were grand occasions."

Ye Lan's face was filled with a pitiful sense of innocence: "The first time was when I killed the demon god Diekarapian. The second time was the internal coup in Mond, the number of casualties was unimaginable. The third time was the dragon disaster in the snowy mountains five hundred years ago, the number of casualties was unimaginable."

"Look at this God of Wind. As soon as He shows up, there is no good news!"

She blinked her eyes. "You asked me to go to a place like that for my vacation... You don't have another useful subordinate who wants me to give up my position to her, do you?"

Ningguang remained silent, just smiled and looked at Ye Lan.

Ye Lan is a talented actress, she can not only act out expressions, but also act like other people.

She is not picky about age, body shape or gender.

No matter what identity it is, she can replace it quickly.

Apart from elemental power...there is nothing we can do about it.

There is nothing nice about the expression of this kind of person, and he is not worth trusting.

However, Ningguang still believed in Ye Lan, but she was not interested in her performance.

Ye Lan shrugged and said nothing more.

She put away the dice, waved at Ningguang, and turned to leave.

Unlike the tone of her voice, Ye Lan acted very casual.

She is similar to Beidou, neither of them considers themselves Ningguang's subordinates, but only partners.

Of course, the outside world certainly doesn’t think so.

In terms of status and identity, they can only be Ningguang's subordinates.

But it doesn't matter.

They don’t think so, and Ningguang herself doesn’t think so either, and that’s enough.

No matter how many speculations others have, Ye Lan just regards it as the price to pay for having an extra big umbrella to protect against wind and rain.

In fact, she helps Ningguang solve some troubles, and Ningguang provides her with what she wants. This relationship is indeed difficult to define.

You can call them subordinates or employees, and of course there is no problem with cooperation.

It doesn't matter.
