I'm in debt at Bengtie

Although he didn't know what happened in the middle that caused Lei Shen to inexplicably become Beloberg's security guard, Zhongli started to have a headache when he thought that Lei Shen might draw his sword in Liyue.

No, what about your Inazuma? Don’t you care about her anymore?

While Zhongli was puzzled, at the nearby Liyue Harbor dock, a huge ship, which seemed unprecedented in the eyes of the Liyue people, was docked at the dock. Then, under the witness of a group of Liyue workers, Beloberg's workers carried the boxes of industrial robots from the cargo ship.

Industrial products that had never been seen before, huge ships that had never been seen before, this extremely dark cargo spaceship brought great shock to the people of Liyue.

It's not that they haven't seen industrial products before. Zhidong also produces industrial products, and Fontaine in the northwest also produces industrial products, but compared with the current ship, the gap is really too big.

For Liyue, this was a complete black ship incident.

Not only the ordinary Liyue people, but also the Liyue Seven Stars who came to the dock were shocked.

"How long have they been back for it to become like this?"

"It's only been one day, but we've solved all those problems."

From signing the trade contract to placing the order, it didn't take long before the other party's goods were delivered to your door. The other party even crossed the world back to his own world, and then came to Teyvat again with so many goods, and even delivered them to your door.

That’s right, the current Teyvat, especially Liyue, has no ability to deliver goods outside the world, so it can only rely on the other party to deliver them.

But this speed is a bit too fast.

Ningguang was sighing in her heart, but she was also very nervous.

In the previous transaction, it seemed that I had only suffered a small loss, but now it seems that the pressure I will face in the future will be much greater than I imagined!

From a general perspective, Liyue, Mondstadt and even Inazuma, these three countries are still in the feudal era and are three completely agricultural countries!

And the object of Liyue's transaction this time, Beloberg, is obviously a complete industrial country!

The gap between agricultural countries and industrial countries is extremely huge!

Not to mention, behind Beloberg is the super technology giant group Interstellar Peace Corporation, so the suppression power is even more exaggerated.

This first trade involved exchanging daily necessities for industrial products. What about the next one? And the next one after that, by then, Liyue and even Teyvat might be forced to unilaterally accept the other party's trade!

The hand holding the fan couldn't help but clench.

The fact that Teyvat is communicating with other worlds has become an unchangeable fact. What Liyue can do now is to make the best use of this time to develop itself rapidly. Only by developing itself can it keep up with the changes in the world.

"Who's that over there?"

Ningguang had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but Keqing beside her was looking at Zhongli and Lei Shen beside the dock, mainly looking at Lei Shen.

"She looks like an Inazuma person, and her clothes look gorgeous. Could she be an Inazuma noble?"

"Inazuma's nobility?"

Ningguang also looked at Lei Shen with some confusion.

"Inazuma has been in seclusion for some time. During this time, some of Inazuma's people did sneak into Liyue Harbor, but not a single noble came."

Originally, there had always been a large amount of trade between Liyue and Inazuma, and the fastest route was for ships to depart from Liyue Port and head to Inazuma's outlying island.

However, since Inazuma announced the country's isolation, this path has been cut off.

"According to common sense, the nobles of Inazuma wouldn't risk being punished by the Thunder God by running away from Inazuma."

The nobles of Inazuma were all those who followed the Thunder God back then, so they basically followed the Thunder God and believed in him very firmly. In this case, the nobles should not run out alone.

As for why Ningguang knows the internal situation of Inazuma, it is naturally because she has her own intelligence channels.

Although there are many thunderstorms outside the Inazuma Islands, there are still people who dare to break into the Inazuma Islands despite the thunderstorms. After all, when the formal channels are closed, smuggling channels will rise.

In a closed-door policy, if someone could sneak in and trade, then what she did would basically be a monopoly business, and the profits would be super high! This is the charm of smuggling!

Ningguang used this smuggling channel to obtain information about Inazuma.

Because he knew the information about Inazuma, he was very curious about this Inazuma who unexpectedly appeared at the dock.

"By the way, she seems to have just gotten off that ship."

Keqing suddenly remembered the scene she saw when she came here before. This Inazuma man, dressed in luxurious clothes, got off the ship with the representative of Beloberg.

Ningguang was stunned after hearing this.

"From that ship? Could it be that she's not Inazuma, but Beloberg?"

"Don't the Belobergs wear clothes similar to the Solstice people because of the cold weather? This person's style is closer to the Inazuma style."

"The person standing opposite her should be Mr. Zhongli from the Wangsheng Hall."

"Yes."

"It seems like they both know each other."

Ningguang watched Zhongli and Lei Shen talking and couldn't help but feel curious. Could it be that Zhongli knew people from other worlds?

"Let's go over and take a look."

221

Chapter 221 Ningguang: Thunder God, I know how to smuggle it in!

"Anyway, if you run into trouble at Inazuma, please don't intervene. Just tell me and I'll take care of it."

"That's even better. This way, I can stay in Inazuma peacefully without having to stay in Liyue all the time."

"Were you planning to stay in Liyue?"

"That's right. I don't know when Beloberg will run into trouble, so I plan to spend a lot of time in Liyue to avoid any trouble. But with your help, it will be much easier for me."

"I can't solve all your problems. I can only help you solve Liyue's problems. Problems outside of Liyue are beyond my ability to resolve."

"That's enough, thank you."

Lei Shen sincerely expressed his gratitude to Zhongli.

When she came here, she had already made preparations to stay outside Inazuma permanently. As for what to do with Inazuma's government affairs, she would help protect Beloberg during the day, and fly back to Inazuma's castle tower at night to let the general handle government affairs. The general didn't need to sleep anyway. As for the general's opinion, she chose to ignore it. After all, she was the God of Thunder!

General:?

Now that Zhongli has expressed his willingness to help, she naturally no longer needs to be responsible for Liyue's affairs. For her, this will allow her to reduce some of the time she spends outside of Inazuma, so she will naturally feel happy.

"Mr. Zhongli, long time no see."

While the two were chatting, Ningguang and Keqing came over and spoke.

"It's Miss Ningguang. Long time no see."

Zhongli greeted them very politely. After all, he was just a guest official of the Rebirth Hall, so he had to be polite when facing the Seven Stars of Liyue.

"Is Mr. Zhongli hosting Inazuma's friends?"

Ningguang stood beside Zhongli, looking at the curious question of the Thunder God opposite her. She came up to test the identity of the Thunder God's wife first.

And Zhongli also gave his own answer.

"Yes, this lady from Inazuma is an old friend of mine. It's a rare opportunity for her to come to Liyue."

Zhongli did not directly tell her Lei Shen's true identity, but instead made up a false identity of an old friend for her.

Lei Shen was a little confused as to why Zhongli said that, but this was Liyue, Zhongli's territory, so he must have had his own reasons for doing so, so he did not deny it.

It turned out to be Inazuma!

Ningguang and Keqing were both a little surprised, because Keqing saw Thor walking down from the spaceship. Why would Inazuma walk down from the spaceship?

"Isn't Inazuma currently..."

Curious Ningguang asked directly, but before Ningguang could finish her question, Zhongli started to explain.

"The situation is somewhat unusual. This ship appeared on the sea when it entered the continent of Teyvat. It first entered the sea east of Inazuma, then flew all the way to Liyue Harbor, passing Inazuma, and took my old friend with it."

"Passed by Inazuma?"

Although she knew that the Thunder God was from Inazuma, she was now even more confused.

No, considering the current poor environment in Inazuma, this ship didn't go around Inazuma, but even entered the area of Inazuma in the thunderstorm, and then landed and picked up someone?

What kind of magical operation is this?

Although she was confused, it was someone else's business and she couldn't say anything wrong.

"Mr. Zhongli, this lady rarely comes to Liyue. Is there anything I can help you with?"

With doubts, Ningguang asked Zhongli. Although she didn't know the identity of Lei Shen, judging from the clothes he was wearing, his identity must be extraordinary. The nobles of Inazuma were all really powerful. The merchants involved in Inazuma's smuggling all had some relationship with the other nobles. The one who could make the spacecraft of the foreign force Beloberg stop to pick up people at this time might be a big shot among the three Inazuma magistrates. If she could establish a good relationship with him, it would be a good thing for Ningguang, right?

"If you want to help, there is one."

Zhongli didn't hesitate and spoke directly.

"My old friend left Inazuma for Liyue due to some unexpected circumstances. She will be returning to Inazuma soon, but it's getting late tonight, so I'd like to ask Miss Ningguang to help me arrange a place for her to stay. As for the accommodation expenses, Wangsheng Hall will cover them."

With just one sentence, he issued another invoice to Hu Tao, the head of the Wangsheng Hall.

"No problem, leave the accommodation to me. As for the Mora needed for accommodation, there's no need. I'll take care of that Mora."

Ningguang generously offered to pay, trying to gain the favor of Zhongli and Lei Shen in this way.

"That's not necessary. I can rush back to Inazuma right now."

However, Lei Shen felt that this was unnecessary. She could fly back to Inazuma by herself and there was no need to stay in Liyue for a night.

"Haha, it seems this lady isn't very familiar with Inazuma's own situation. Inazuma is currently in isolation. The ships that used to come and go every day are gone now."

Ningguang couldn't help laughing when she heard what Lei Shen said. It was so interesting that this was the eldest daughter of a noble family who was raised in seclusion in Inazuma, and she didn't know anything about Inazuma's situation.

"But don't worry, I can help you get back to Inazuma."

"can you help me?"

Lei Shen looked at Ningguang with some confusion.

"That's right. Because of General Raiden's thunderstorm, ordinary ships can no longer enter or leave Inazuma. However, I happen to know someone whose fleet can safely enter and exit the thunderstorm to Inazuma. I can ask her to help take you back to Inazuma. This kind of thing is easy for her."

The person Ningguang knew was naturally Beidou. Beidou's Southern Cross Fleet was engaged in smuggling business and helped Ningguang to find out the news about Inazuma. Ningguang learned all the news about Inazuma from Beidou.

"Is there anyone who dares to go through a thunderstorm?..."

Ningguang sounded very confident as she spoke, but when Thor listened to Ningguang's words, his expression became cold.

"Yes, that captain is also acquainted with the nobles of Inazuma. Perhaps you have even heard of her name. She is Captain Beidou of the Southern Cross."

"Beidou..."

Thor nodded, indicating that he would remember this person.

"I don't know anyone named Beidou."

"You don't even know me?"

Ningguang confirmed once again that Lei Shen was the eldest daughter of a wealthy family who was raised in seclusion and was completely ignorant of the world. She did not know Beidou, the famous smuggler, and she did not even know about Inazuma's current situation of seclusion. This eldest daughter was too much of a homebody.

But Ningguang was also curious: how could this reclusive young lady be Zhongli's old friend? Could it be that Zhongli had gone to Inazuma a long time ago and met her in the inner sanctum of some noble family in Inazuma?

Ningguang looked at Zhongli with a strange expression.

I didn't expect that Mr. Zhongli, who looks old-fashioned, has such a hobby.

222

Chapter 222: Prepare to clean up the Thor inside.

"According to the usual time, Captain Beidou is now rushing back from Inazuma and should be back tonight. I will contact you immediately after Beidou's ship returns."

Ningguang had no idea about the identity of the God of Thunder, so she continued to explain it to her.

Zhongli watched from the side and witnessed Ningguang telling the information about Beidou. He had no intention of interfering. As long as Lei Shen did not reveal his identity, he did not care. As for Beidou's safety, Zhongli felt that there would be no problem. He, the Rock King, was standing right here. Lei Shen would not cause trouble for Beidou. At most, he would cause trouble for the Inazuma nobles who were connected with Beidou.

As the god of Inazuma, since she has issued a national isolation order, the nobles of Inazuma should have carried out the order according to her requirements. However, they secretly participated in smuggling and even provided convenience to the smugglers. This is a betrayal of her!

She felt that she needed to investigate Inazuma's three magistrates thoroughly when she returned, but now, she needed to get more clues.

"Can you tell me who Captain Beidou and Inazuma are related to?"

Lei Shen continued to ask Ningguang.

"I want to find out if there's anyone I know."

"I do know about this."

Ningguang didn't hide either.
