People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 195: The Alliance between Xumi and Liyue
The highest point of Liyue Harbor, in front of the immortal platform.

Keqing, the Jade Star, represents the people of Liyue and respectfully asks for instructions from the gods.

Because the core purpose had been achieved, the two gods in the sky gradually retracted the brilliant sea of ​​elemental light.

In the last small swirling cloud, the winding dragon-shaped figure and the four-legged beast-shaped figure looked at each other.
At a similar speed, he shrunk his body to a size of about ten meters, a size that was convenient for landing.

Afterwards, under the extremely expectant gazes of the Seven Stars and countless spectators.

A golden document slowly descended from the sides of the two gods and hovered in front of Keqing, the representative.
——This is the "oracle" jointly drafted by Lin Feng and Zhongli, including the detailed terms of the alliance contract.

According to past practice, Keqing, as the representative of the Seven Stars, bowed respectfully.

With a solemn expression, he took the golden document with both hands, which might completely change the future of Liyue.

——In Liyue's thousands of years of history, there have been many such scenes where the gods gave instructions and the Seven Stars read them to the people.
This has happened countless times in the succession of generations of common people and the Seven Stars.

In countless years past,
The emperor is immortal and extremely wise. Every time he makes a divine oracle at the ceremony of summoning the immortals, it will cause great turmoil in the business and even political circles of Liyue.

The poor who have the courage to follow will be able to turn their fortunes around, while the rich who are stubborn and conservative will be left behind by the tide of the times.

——Trust in the Emperor’s decisions and follow the guidance of the gods.

This is the underlying logic that has been proven countless times in reality over thousands of years and is finally engraved deep in the hearts of all Liyue people.

Without the Emperor, there would be no Liyue with a history of 3,700 years.
Without the gods' consistent protection for thousands of years, there would be no commercial country that serves as the economic center of various countries and where people live and work in peace and contentment.

All Liyue people are genuinely proud of this history of walking with gods and of their country's powerful, wise, and father-like ancient god.

——But during the hundreds of years when the Emperor gradually moved away from the political center,

The most serious impact of the ceremony of inviting the immortals, which has gradually become a formalization, is just a partial reshuffle of the political and business circles. In essence, it is still a series of adjustments within the country.

——But even the most common dock workers know that
The oracle brought down by the two gods in this unprecedented grand ceremony of summoning the gods was by no means as simple as the "investment trend" in the subconscious of most people in the past.

——This oracle is destined to be recorded in Liyue’s history.
It has become a historical turning point that is equally crucial even over a span of thousands of years.

".From today on, Xumi and Liyue have officially formed an alliance, and the review conditions for the passage between merchants and people of the two countries will be gradually relaxed."

".The tariffs on trade between the two countries will be adjusted accordingly after detailed investigations."

".In the fields of education and public construction, Xumi will provide Liyue with experience and technical support."

Under the expectant gazes of countless people, Keqing began to read out the relevant provisions of the alliance contract one by one, informing the many people of Liyue in advance of the changes that would come later.

In the distant direction of Xumi, in the void device that has gradually become popular among the people,
The information about this alliance contract was quickly placed in an extremely eye-catching position.

The relevant information was transmitted with an efficiency that was even higher than that of the venue where the ceremony of inviting the immortals was held.

There are many clauses in this contract, ranging from military, politics, to people's livelihood, technology,

Thanks to the efforts of Zhongli, the God of Contract, and Nashida, the God of Wisdom, almost all the details have been handled perfectly.

In general, the establishment of this covenant is mainly to facilitate the "mutual sharing" between subsequent countries. It is a communication and exchange of resources, technology and talents under the leadership of the gods.

For Lin Feng, there are actually some things in this contract that are quite counterintuitive.
For example, on the surface, Xumi's technological development seems to be far superior to Liyue's. Not only do they have autonomous mechanisms that are extremely technologically advanced, but they also have a large number of elemental weapons that draw on the energy of the earth's veins.

But in fact, in terms of military strength and the manufacturing of many military equipment, Liyue, where every soldier has a spear and it is like a medieval country, is more advantageous.

It can only be said that on the continent of Teyvat, there is more than one path for the development of technology.
You can either run all the way along the high-tech route with laser missiles covering the ground like in the previous life,
It is also possible to increase combat effectiveness like Liyue, through the resonance between battle formations, weapons, and some magical instruments, relying on "will", "belief", "determination" and other methods that Lin Feng thinks are more abstract.

So after all the negotiations, under this contract that places great emphasis on "balance", the people of both countries actually feel that they have made a good deal and are afraid that the other side will go back on its word.

The reading of the oracle continued,
Since the contract contained too many details,
The ceremony will not repeat all of them, but will briefly summarize the most critical aspects.

Only after the ceremony of inviting the immortals is over will the General Affairs Department be responsible for posting and distributing the relevant documents.

——But the content of this oracle is not just this.

In fact, in the eyes of Lin Feng and Zhong Li, the most critical part is

It is still far from being presented to the public, who are already overwhelmed by the excessive amount of information they have received in a short period of time.

at last,

After the main contents of the alliance treaty were read out,
Keqing, who was unfortunately facing such a high-pressure scene when hosting the Immortal Invitation Ceremony for the first time, took a deep breath.

They began to carry out the process that had been carried out in previous years - informing the people of the Emperor's development policy for Liyue in the coming year.

But after seeing the first few plans, even Keqing, who had been able to remain calm in various situations before, suddenly showed a look of surprise that was hard to suppress.

——Even though she had anticipated the special nature of this ceremony, when Keqing actually saw these messages, she still couldn't believe her eyes.

However, facing the expectant gazes of the people below the stage during the ceremony, no matter how surprised they were, they had to read out the message in the oracle according to tradition.

Without having time to think too much, she just paused for a moment and then continued:

"——Liyue has a history of 3,700 years. The legacy issues that are beyond the scope of ordinary people to deal with have accumulated over time to a point that cannot be ignored."

".At the time when the two countries are forming an alliance, the two gods have shown their favor and will work with the immortals to deal with these disasters caused by extraordinary factors in accordance with the mutual assistance regulations. The following are the specific details:"

"——Temporarily and completely seal off the Stratum Chasm. All remaining miners and staff will be evacuated within a certain period of time."

"——Travel to the original area will be prohibited after the 15th of the next month and will be restored at the end of the month."

"——The uninhabited area at Nantianmen is temporarily blocked. Undeclared residents are prohibited from entering the area."

"." After completing the announcement of recent plans with an inexplicable mood, Keqing paused and read out the last few items on the oracle:

"——In the next period of time, the Qianyan Army will blockade some areas that need to be governed.

All those affected, including those working in the abyss, can report any losses they have incurred, and compensation will be provided after verification by the General Affairs Department."

"."

As these pieces of information were announced, the people in the entire Yujingtai area fell into a short period of silence.

A moment later, the figures of the two gods in the sky slowly dissipated as the ceremony ended.

As if they had finally recovered from this overly intense shock, the people in the audience burst into unprecedented enthusiasm.

"——Great! Great! I knew that Lord Yan would not turn a blind eye to us!"

"The Rocky Abyss has been sealed off for more than half a year. Now that the two gods are willing to help, the hard days for us workers will finally come to an end."

A middle-aged man who was still wearing two thin clothes even in such weather was so excited that he was speechless for a moment after hearing the news that the gods would take action to solve the problem of the abyss.

"Gui Li Yuan? That place is flooded every day. I heard from the merchants who passed by that if you don't walk along the road at night, you will encounter many inexplicable and terrifying monsters."

"——I wonder how the Emperor intends to deal with this? With such a large area, if we can grab a portion of it as soon as it is well governed, we can make a lot of money even if we use it to grow crops!"

The focus of a wealthy businessman was obviously different from that of the workers next to him. He first set his sights on the possible profits contained in the vast plain of Guiliyuan.

"Hiss, I can roughly guess the reasons for the first two."

"But what is the purpose of blocking the South Gate?"

"Apart from the treasure-stealing group, there probably aren't many people going to such remote places on weekdays, right?"

A young man in a long gown and looking like a student was obviously confused by the third notice.

"."

All of a sudden, all the people became more excited than ever before, knowing that the Emperor would personally work with another god to solve these long-standing problems.

——After the incident in the Abyss, everyone said that Prince Yan no longer cared about the lives of ordinary people because he distributed power to the Seven Stars. But now it seems that he has always been concerned about these things in his heart.

While countless people were analyzing what impact this ceremony of summoning the immortals would have on their lives, Qixing on the stage had another consideration in his mind.

——In this oracle, the Emperor once again chose to personally solve the problem for the people of Liyue after hundreds of years. The signal conveyed by this action forced them to think deeply.

——If it is true as the rumors say, the Emperor will take back some of his power and lead Liyue in person again like he did a thousand years ago.
So how will these "Seven Stars" welcome this "earth-shaking" change in such a future?
For a moment, with the end of this ceremony of summoning the immortals, they were faced with an unprecedented amount of information.

From wealthy businessmen and politicians to ordinary people, everyone on this earth has truly understood.

Whether they like it or not, Liyue will stride into a new historical period in an unstoppable manner.

Whether it was excitement or fear, after the two gods left, the real impact of this ceremony of summoning the gods had only just begun to ferment.

The floating island on top of Jueyunjian and Qingyun.

As a golden light flashed, two young figures quietly appeared in the center of the platform.

——It was Zhongli and Lin Feng who came to review the ceremony after the Immortal Summoning Ceremony.

Even though Lin Feng was involved in the drafting of this oracle,

But when I think of the entries that are completely opposite to the Emperor's ideas in the game,
He once again clearly realized how much change his existence would bring to the world.

But even though the ceremony of inviting the immortals has been completely concluded,
In fact, he and Zhongli still had one last thing to deal with - that was to work together to open up a land route between the two countries.

Nowadays, the only way between Xumi and Liyue is through a narrow tunnel in the Layered Stone Chasm.

Even if it is led by gods, the alliance contract can only be effective in very few areas due to the restrictions on the flow of materials and exchange of talents between the two countries.

Therefore, he did not immerse himself in thinking, but spoke:
"Although after the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, I still have many questions I would like to discuss with you, Your Majesty."

"——But after all, this time the ceremony of inviting the immortals took much longer than expected. If we don't go to Caiqiao Valley soon, I'm worried that the God of Wind will be waiting anxiously."

"——How about we finish this last piece of work first?"

"."

"That's good. If we delay too long, it will be a real headache for my old friend if he makes a scene afterwards."

Originally, he was worried that Lin Feng had consumed too much energy in the operation just now.
So Zhongli teleported to Qingyun Peak, intending to let the other party rest for a while.
After hearing Lin Feng's proposal, he also remembered his old friend's talent in making trouble.

——No reason can make people feel annoyed and headache. If he really finds a suitable reason, I am afraid that I will not be able to live in peace for a while.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and said simply:
".I was worried that you would feel exhausted after spreading power across the entire Liyue area, so I planned to bring you here to rest for a while."

"——Since you still have some strength left, it seems that I have underestimated your ability to recover after gaining the two powers."

"——Well, although my condition is not as good as before, I still have some spare energy."

"Let's go."

“——It’s time to rush to Caiqiao Valley and completely connect the road between Xumi and Liyue, so as to put an end to the last step of the Summoning Immortal Ceremony.”

Shaking their heads, Zhongli and Lin Feng looked at each other, and accompanied by a dazzling golden light, the two gods, who had just attended a ceremony, both disappeared in this secluded place on the clouds.
