"No problem, no problem. Business is business, we can talk about anything. You can rest assured about the reputation of our Southern Cross fleet."
Hokuto patted his chest and vouched for Iwasaki.
"Thank you, Captain Beidou. This is our list of requirements. Please take a look."
Iwasaki handed the list to Hokuto.
Just then, Rikuto Okazaki brought over the sake.
As Beidou drank his wine, he looked at the list and then frowned slightly.
Is this what you call a big business?
After Kujo Takayuki compromised, he began to use merchant channels to transport supplies to Umijima Island.
Therefore, the current demand for various supplies from Inazuma Island is not so urgent on Umijima Island.
The main gaps are items that are temporarily unavailable through merchant channels or have excessively high premiums.
The list of projects allocated to BeiDou was naturally drastically reduced.
Iwasaki noticed Hokuto's frown and spoke up to remind him.
"Captain Beidou, you might as well go straight to the last part."
At the very back?
Beidou turned the page on the list.
Delivery address: Wharf, Wanglong Village, Haizhi Island.
Beidou's eyes widened slightly.
Didn't Ayato Kamisato just say that a resistance army has been formed on Umijima Island and is fighting against the shogunate?
Looking at Iwasaki, he saw that the other man was smiling at him.
Then she looked at Ayato Kamisato, only to see him sipping his milk tea with his eyes down, seemingly oblivious to the changes happening around him.
Looking around, Rikuto Okazaki was drinking sake at the counter, while Erika was grilling meat.
At that moment, Beidou understood.
She has a straightforward personality, but she's not stupid.
The situation in Inazuma is really interesting right now.
The resistance fighters operated openly on the shogunate's territory, while one of the three magistrates, a major figure in the shogunate, secretly colluded with the resistance fighters.
Ningguang will definitely be interested in Inazuma's situation.
"Captain Beidou, someone will naturally come to discuss things with you at the cargo receiving point."
“I understand.” Beidou nodded silently.
She's really looking forward to this big business deal.
Well, business can wait, it's not important. She mainly thinks it will be a lot of fun.
Now that I think about it, did Ningguang already know about this when she sent her to Inazuma?
Before all the food was served, and after a few sips of wine, the business was already over.
That's why I say working with straightforward people is so enjoyable.
The rest of the time was spent chatting about trivial things, and both the host and guests enjoyed the meal.
In the following days, Beidou arranged for his fleet to purchase the supplies needed by the Southern Cross fleet through the World Chamber of Commerce stationed on the outlying island.
It wasn't just the things that Haigi Island needed, but also some Inazuma specialties that she wanted to ship out.
However, because he still needed to go to Haiqi Island, Beidou deliberately left some of the products that could be obtained on Haiqi Island unused and replaced them with the supplies needed on Haiqi Island.
For the World Chamber of Commerce, this was like rain after a long drought; since the lockdown order was issued, they hadn't received such a large order in a long time.
The World Chamber of Commerce has been very proactive.
Within a few days, the Southern Cross fleet completed unloading and set sail.
The only difference is that the direction they came from is different from when they came.
This time, we headed straight for Haigi Island.
Upon receiving the news, Xin Hai and Jiang Ming, who were on Haiqi Island, immediately began the relevant preparations.
The most important task was to select a group of people and send them off to Haizhi Island to engage in diplomatic work.
For Jiang Ming, his most important task was to stop making excuses.
I need to finish the manuscript as soon as possible and print it into a book.
Only then can we further collaborate with Ningguang.
Chapter 26 Liyue
"what?"
Beidou opened his mouth wide, looking very surprised.
"You want me to take a group of people out?"
Upon arriving at Haiji Island, Hokuto received a warm welcome from Shinkai and Jiangming.
After all, this may be the only way to enter and exit the thunderstorm area in the short term.
Beidou was also very satisfied with Haiqi Island's procurement list. There was a high demand for rare minerals with high value, such as crystal mines, and the price offered was slightly higher than the market price.
Importantly, Inazuma does not produce crystal mines locally, so the other party has to rely entirely on imports.
This is a stable and lucrative business.
However, another request from Haiji Island put her in a difficult position.
She can take this large group of people out, but what about Liyue Harbor?
I didn't tell Ningguang about this.
These people are representatives of the resistance, not an Inazuma delegation. Inazuma is currently under lockdown, and there are no official channels between the two countries. Under what circumstances should these people visit?
Won't this put Ningguang in a difficult position?
"Please rest assured that our personnel are committed to establishing friendly and stable cooperative relations with your country. We have full sincerity and are confident that we will satisfy you."
"hiss……"
Beidou gasped, pondering the feasibility of this matter.
Xin Hai gave Jiang Ming a wink.
"We have heard that you have had some business conflicts with Northern Bank, and it seems that things were not going well?"
"That was months ago. Humph, those money shop owners, all they knew was to stare at the small piece of meat in front of them. They were beaten to a pulp by the Northern Bank."
"So, it seems that Ms. Tianquan Ningguang is also quite troubled by this matter?"
"really."
Beidou frowned as she looked at Jiang Ming, acknowledging a major problem that Liyue was currently facing.
She wanted to see what the other person was planning to do.
"Isn't this a coincidence? Captain Beidou, please pass this book on to Ms. Ningguang. I believe she will be interested in it. If she has any further questions, she can consult our dispatch personnel."
Beidou took a thin booklet from Jiang Ming and flipped through it.
She recognized each word individually, but when put together, they were all nouns she couldn't understand.
What markets, currencies, capital, banks, profits, value appreciation...
Each one was followed by a long, tedious explanation.
It certainly looks like something Ningguang would be interested in.
The author is a person named Ma En, and the name sounds like he's from Liyue.
Seeing the confident demeanor of the people on Haiji Island, Hokuto began to waver.
Combine this with what Ningguang told her before she left.
While the profits from war are desirable, a peaceful, stable, and open Inazuma region better serves Liyue's interests.
"Then, I'll take them for you. But let me make this clear: if Ningguang doesn't agree, I'll have to charge you extra for sending them back."
"Of course, but we have prepared more than one plan, and I believe there is one that will suit Liyue."
Jiang Ming was very confident about this.
If financial knowledge can't impress you, how about a complete power system?
To be fair, the mechanical design capabilities of the people of Fontainebleau are truly remarkable.
Take the clockwork mechanism for example. It's covered in gears and transmission structures. It's a robot with a purely mechanical structure that can move flexibly and freely, giving it a strong mechanical punk vibe.
Jiang Ming doubted whether this thing could even be made with the technology of Earth before he transmigrated here.
With years of experience in designing and manufacturing clockwork mechanisms, the engineers at Fontainebleau have successfully built a steam turbine.
They even said that compared to a wind-up mechanism, this thing is like a child's homework in Fontainebleau.
Once the design is complete, the rest is much easier. The Geo Eye is responsible for manufacturing it, and if the materials don't meet the requirements, crystal blocks are added.
The first generator in Tewat has now been successfully developed.
Doing scientific research in Teyvat is like standing on the shoulders of giants, which is much more comfortable than climbing the tech tree from scratch on Earth.
The most surprising thing was that the power of lightning element was further verified in this process.
