Genshin Impact: A Red Teyvat Life Starting from Zero

On the one hand, he began to contact various parties in an attempt to postpone the departure of the Southern Cross fleet.

The result was not satisfactory.

Beidou has agreed to Qixing's request and accepted Qixing's "green channel".

This can be considered a contract; the reward for accepting the "green channel" preferential treatment is to increase the frequency of overseas trips.

Beidou was also in a difficult situation, and she suggested that Yamagami Hideo go find the Seven Stars.

However, all seven stars went to the Abyss of Layered Rocks.

The Stratocaster's Great Abyss has recently been placed under martial law.

By the time he got through all the approvals and obtained the necessary permits to reach the Abyss of the Rocks, much of the time had passed.

On the other hand, he also sent out the team members who remained in Liyue Harbor. Some of them started to connect with caravans, some started to recruit people, and a few others were sent out at full speed to Sumeru to buy a certain explosive substance from a scholar of the Order of the Church.

They need to take the letters of introduction from Mora and the researcher from the Ocean Academy, find the researcher's mentor at the Academy of Educational Sciences, meet and discuss the matter, and then contact the owner of the explosive substance through the mentor's identity.

I've heard there have been some personnel changes at the Academy recently. I hope that the instructor who possesses the explosive material won't let them come up empty-handed.

Time is already tight enough; if we spend a few more days looking for someone...

Negotiations have stalled; they're in a hurry and will likely demand a higher price.

Fortunately, the bill can be sent to Qunyu Pavilion.

While Hideo was frantically running around on the mountain, some good news finally arrived.

It was those young men from the General Affairs Department who came specifically to tell him.

Some time ago, the caravan he encountered on the road returned with the goods he had ordered.

We should be able to reach Liyue Harbor in about a week; it's very efficient.

Even if we can't catch up in other aspects, at least we have something to show for it.

Hideo Yamagami quietly added the caravan to his whitelist.

Good bro, you're reliable!

Besides arranging manpower, Hideo Yamagami himself was also busy.

There are quite a few people in Liyue Harbor who need him to keep in touch and personally coordinate with him.

Furthermore, he needs to write a report documenting his recent activities in Liyue.

There's a lot of content here.

With the support of the Seven Stars, he accomplished far more than expected.

For example, the research base located in Liyue.

That means there will be a lot of reports to write.

While reviewing the task list and writing reports, he discovered that he hadn't yet done some tasks that he considered less important or that could be done in the long term.

For example, you can submit a request to the Adventurers' Guild.

Well, I still have to get these odd jobs done over the next few days, at least to get things started and have something to show for it.

I have to work overtime again.

There were also some very special tasks that left him clueless, so he put them aside for the time being, intending to take a closer look at the situation in Liyue Harbor before making any decisions.

For example: "Maintain a friendly relationship with Mr. Zhongli, a guest elder of the Wangshengtang."

Moreover, there is no limit to the public relations expenses permitted under this license.

It's the same as the special [Terrain Repair Fee] in Mondstadt next door.

No limit means there is no upper limit to the funds required to carry out this activity.

Generally speaking, this means not knowing how much it will cost, but knowing it will definitely cost a lot of money.

[That's strange. Why is it that the bulk of the budget isn't for personnel activities or material procurement, but rather for these odd and unusual items?]

Hideo Yamagami stopped writing and pondered the question.

I've heard of the Hall of Rebirth.

The only funeral service organization in Liyue.

But what does it have to do with the guest priests who handle funeral arrangements?

Because that guest advisor was extremely knowledgeable?

Hmm... he had indeed heard about this after arriving in Liyue Harbor.

But based on this alone, is there no upper limit to public relations expenses?

Isn't that a bit too much?

Hideo Yamagami couldn't figure out the reason either.

But since his superiors demanded it, he had to do it.

The previous postponement was to investigate the situation.

Now...

According to information gathered in recent days, Mr. Zhongli's daily routine is almost always the same.

Listening to opera, listening to storytelling, walking birds, and going shopping.

You can encounter Mr. Yun's plays and Tian Tiezui's storytelling.

Meeting Mr. Zhongli is not difficult.

However, I heard that Mr. Zhongli is a "refined person" who usually only listens to the most famous opera singers, and lately he has been buying the most expensive thrushes to walk around with.

I wonder how much it would cost to befriend and build a good relationship with such a person.

Headache.

--------

Amidst everyone's busy work, the days passed by one by one.

Soon, the day arrived for the Southern Cross fleet to set sail.

Fortunately, the people heading to Sumeru acted quickly and did not encounter any unusual situations.

The two instructors from the Academy who contacted them were very nice people, and they easily obtained the formulas and samples of those explosive substances.

Along with that, there were also various pieces of equipment that Hideo Yamagami had commissioned the caravan to purchase, as well as two people who accompanied him on the ship.

In recent days, they have all been loaded onto the Southern Cross fleet.

Chapter 67 An ominous premonition

South Wharf of Liyue Harbor.

The Southern Cross fleet is ready to set sail.

Onboard the Death Star, the sailors are loading the last batch of cargo.

Up in the attic, below the lookout tower, Beidou stood with one hand on his hip, talking to the "special guest" on the ship.

Two of Ye Lan's subordinates, the "Night Watchmen" sent by Ning Guang to Inazuma to gather intelligence, are named Wen Chen and An Xin.

"Boss, everything's settled in, we're ready to set sail anytime!"

On the deck, First Officer Colonel Shouted at Hokuto.

"it is good!"

Hokuto jumped onto the deck and walked toward the bow of the ship, with Colonel Chong following closely behind.

Wen Chen and An Xin exchanged a glance, then went down the stairs and followed them to the bow of the ship.

"Weigh anchor!"

"Yes, weigh anchor!"

A thick hemp rope pulled the black iron anchor slowly up to the surface of the water.

Beidou looks towards the distant sea.

The sea breeze lifted her hair and skirt, making her look dashing and heroic.

"Dark Star, start operating!"

At Beidou's command, the Death Star raised its sails, and the oars and waterwheels began to move slowly.

On the lookout tower, the flag bearer waved the signal flag, signaling the other ships in the Southern Cross fleet to set sail.

In fact, he didn't need to wave the signal flag; they had already taken action the moment the Death Star raised its sails.

The Southern Cross fleet has officially set sail, with its destination: Inazuma!

—A few days later—

"Ugh~"

On the “Death Star”.

Wen Chen and An Xin were currently lying in a disheveled state inside the cabin of the Death Star, with a small bucket filled with vomit in front of them.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk."

Beidou shook his head as he watched this scene, making a "tsk tsk" sound of admiration.

"I told you long ago, newlyweds shouldn't eat so much on their first meal, but you two just wouldn't listen."

"Ugh... ugh..."

The two people lying in front of the bucket did not respond to Beidou's words, but instead opened their mouths and vomited again.
