Genshin Impact, I'm Slime

Chapter 166 Two Thieves
The pale yellow lights enveloped the entire manor in a reassuring and relaxing atmosphere. The wine bottles were neatly arranged on the wine cabinet next to the manor, the waxed old wooden floor and the murals recording the history of Mond were row upon row. The mahogany bookshelf, Ying has never observed the layout of the manor so carefully before.

The reason why there is so much idle time is all because Di Luke, who was withdrawing money, was nagged by the old butler of Chenxi Winery.

In the past few months, Di Luke has held several banquets in the Angel's Gift Tavern, each time held according to the highest standard of the tavern, and the objects are almost all the residents of Mond City.

No matter how rich and powerful the winery is, it can't stand such a frequency of treats.

Chenxi Winery paid taxes this year. In order to cover up the fact that the owner of the winery spent huge sums of money on treats and purchases of unnecessary luxury goods, the housekeeper recorded all the money raised by Di Luque as the money for buying vines and grape seeds when doing accounts.

When the grapes should be ripe in a few months, they say that the grapes are all sour due to poor cultivation, and they can’t be taken anymore, and then report to the head of the piano of the West Wind Knights, and the bad debt can be eliminated directly.

Perhaps by virtue of his friendship with Di Luke, Captain Qin will help cover up the large bill for the treat, but the residents of Mond and the Church of the West Wind are not fools, of course they have the ability to investigate that Chenxi Winery did not buy grape seeds at all, How can we rot all the grapes?

And now, the old butler who had served the Legenfind family for most of his life sat face to face with Diluc by the burning fireplace, warning him with a serious expression to pay attention to the family's tradition of frugality.

But from Ying's point of view, Diluc, who was staring blankly at the burning flames in the fireplace, didn't refute the old butler's remarks, but he didn't listen to them either. He just stared blankly at the flames in the fireplace.

Di Luke was also very uncomfortable. After all, he was the butler of the manor from his father's generation, and even watched himself and Kaia grow up. Even if he was teaching himself, he couldn't refute it, right?

At this time, the maid of the manor brought two cups of black tea. The old butler finally took a breath, pursed his lips, let the tea moisten his old and dry lips, and said with emotion that young people should pay attention to temperance, and finally got down to business. Including asking Diluque to check the business report of Chenxi Winery and ask if more wine needs to be moved out.

However, Di Luke remembered that when he was young, he would always be excited by the huge income of Chenxi Winery, and he would take the reserved and taciturn little Kaiya to explain to him how to check the reports and taxes, and his eyes were shining with joy , but still trying to put on a calm air of a brother.

Unfortunately, those days are gone forever.

Ying yawned loudly. The owner of Cat Tail Tavern knew Paimon, and in Mond City, his good partner should not be in any danger. Smelling the faint fragrance of wine unique to Chenxi Winery, he didn't know. Where did the melodious voice of praise come from, Ying lay on the other table, her eyelids gradually closed.

"In short, the deal with Feiyun Chamber of Commerce must be on the agenda, and..."

Diluc turned around and noticed Ying, who had fallen asleep on the table, and realized that after so long a delay, it was already the regular nap time for the residents of Mond.

"Okay, let's get the money first."

Without disturbing Ying who was sleeping soundly, Diluc took off his red and black coat and put it lightly on Ying's back, covering her snow-white back exposed by the cat-eared maid outfit, and gestured to the butler sitting beside her. A gesture to go upstairs.

The old butler sighed deeply. The young master Di Luke, who is called the noble son, has also grown up. He also has a young lover who is an honorary knight in the Zephyr Knight. Looking at the clothes, the old butler has already made up his mind. What, went upstairs without saying a word, ready to open the vault of the manor to get some Mora.

The corridors on the second floor are covered with portraits of successive Patriarchs of the Laigenfind family. Since the New Mond era, Laigenfind has finally become the unstoppable Mond through his own efforts and the gift of the gods from a small family. One of the three big families that fell.

Recently, it was reported that the Lawrence family attempted to unite with fools to overthrow the rule of the Zephyr Knights, and one of Mond's former royal families was about to be subtracted.

The butler stares at the portraits on the wall. Whether it is text or pictures, they are the carriers and sustenance of emotions. They depict the inner words and thoughts of the owner in different ways. Through them, people can contact, experience and feel the world of others. , like a fire that keeps burning in the dark, or weak, or hot, although it is difficult, it will never go out.

The two walked to the door of the vault, and the old butler inserted his key into the only iron door of the winery, and motioned for Diluc to take out his key as well.

The big iron gate opened slowly, and the treasury, which symbolized the wealth of Chenxi Winery, slowly opened. This is also where Di Luc is most proud.

Although the Fengshen who likes to drink secretly can enter the winery's underground wine cellar at will, what he doesn't know is that there are still several bottles of the most precious top-quality wine hidden in the vault on the second floor, all of which are brewed from the best grapes of the year. from.

The golden light emerges from the crack of the door, mixed with gorgeous colors, it is the light of wealth mixed with stacked moras and precious stones.

Just as Diluc and the old butler entered the vault with bags and were about to decorate Mora, a fiery figure came into view, and on the shoulders of the red figure was a man stretching out his hand, trying to reach the last place in the vault. The pale green shadow of the wine bottle above, the indigo braid dangling.

Both of them had their backs to the gate, and the red-and-white-haired boy standing below was still urging the person standing on his shoulder: "Wendy, are you alright? I told you to bring it down with your divine power. You have to take it with your hands." ..."

"It's coming soon, real wine must be moistened with the temperature of the palm, how can you show respect for this wine with divine power?"

The whole person was stuck on the wine cabinet, slyly biting the protruding tongue with his teeth, struggling to reach the top of the wine cabinet with his arms that were not long enough, Wendy tried to stand on tiptoe, and finally grabbed the bottle of wine plug, but his feet slipped, and he fell backwards.

Without using divine power, Wendy closed her eyes.

And Famas, no?
The next second, the imagined pain did not come.

Wendy only heard a muffled bang, and then a warm elastic feeling came from her back.

I saw Famas lying down under him, catching him with his arms and half of his chest.

Farmas hissed and was rubbing his head with his other hand.

He only felt a light on his shoulder, turned his head, and saw Wendy fall backwards, only a moment to react.

And Wendy didn't want him to use his divine power, so no matter how well-trained Famus was, it would be difficult to use it in a small treasury.

The only thing he could do in time was to kick his feet, and the whole person fell directly backwards, fell to the ground ahead of time, and caught Wendy.

Because he used too much force under his feet, he bumped his head and buzzed.

Since he became a god, he hasn't felt such pain for a long time, but he kind of misses it...

Seeing Farmas's appearance, Wendy was a little nervous, and quickly sat up: "Famas, Farmas, are you okay?"

Famas smiled: "It's okay...just a little dizzy."

And Wendy and Farmas, who were in love, finally found the noble young man in red who was slowly pulling out the big sword behind his back with a cold face.

"Huh? It seems to have been discovered?"

Wendy sat on Farmas's chest, holding the intact wine bottle, and looked at Di Luke who was rushing towards the two of them in embarrassment.
