"This tea is good tea. I can tell that there are no signs of machine production. It is purely handmade. According to the tea seller, it is made using a tea-making technique that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Tea made with such a technique is worth trying."

Zhongli also offered an explanation for his actions at the opportune moment.

"Is it possible that those are just products from small workshops around here?"

Li Yue asked Zhong Li speechlessly.

"Does it make any difference?"

After a moment of slight confusion, Zhongli asked out of curiosity.

Kasumigaoka offered a helpless explanation from the side.

“In Japan, there are small workshops that like to exaggerate the value of their products. Because they can't industrialize and speed up production, they can't compete with the products of large factories. So they put labels on their products, especially labels that say they are handmade, preferably those that claim to be made by a master craftsman with a long-standing tradition. It sounds very high-end, but in reality, they are just products from small workshops. Most of them can even be described as products without any manufacturer, supplier, or quality certification. But they can use this method to make their products appear as so-called specialties, thereby raising the price. This is a marketing tactic.”

"In short, what you're paying for isn't the product itself, but the extra story attached to it. The product isn't worth that much money, and even this so-called century-old craftsmanship might be available in many small tea-selling workshops."

Li Yue pointed to the tea leaves that Zhong Li was holding.

"If you want to drink tea, the tea from Qiaoyingzhuang is definitely better than the tea here. It is made by the same hand and the same century-old techniques, but the tea is definitely much better."

Just kidding. What kind of place is Qiaoyingzhuang? It's a place where immortals protect the land and water. The tea and water there are not even in the same league as the tea grown in industrialized countries like Japan. The key point is that the price can't possibly be one million yen for a small bag. Xianyun and Naweilet, who have bought a lot of tea, are the most qualified to say this.

Although Li Yue was right, Zhong Li still felt that she hadn't made a mistake in buying it.

"Well, perhaps you are right, but since I've come all this way to another world, I'd like to try some tea from there."

There's a common type of elderly person who gets tricked into buying health supplements, and despite the younger family members trying to dissuade them, they stubbornly refuse to believe it!

Li Yue was also helpless. This old Bi Deng had his own stubbornness, and he probably wouldn't listen to you anyway.

"Alright, you can buy it if you want, just don't get arrested and taken to the police station because you don't have the money."

Zhongli's eyes lit up.

"So, if someone pays for my purchase, I can buy it, right?"

"That's right!"

Li Yue understood what Zhong Li was thinking. In Teyvat, he had a personal wallet named Prince, so he wanted to find a wallet in the other world as well.

Because the young master was always left in Liyue, Zhongli maintained a relationship with him. They used the Northern Bank's money for food and drink, and the young master himself didn't care at all. He only cared about fighting and didn't care about money, or rather, he didn't care about the money in the Northern Bank. As for the Northern Bank, Li Yue didn't know what the rich man's expression was when he received the bills at Zhidong, but he always paid for Zhongli's bills without fail. Perhaps this was the rich man's twisted love for Morax.

"I understand."

Zhongli nodded in satisfaction. As long as he found the wallet, he could buy it without worry, so this wouldn't be a problem for him.

"As for you, Ying."

Li Yue looked at Lei Yingdian, who immediately apologized.

"I'm sorry, I'll be more careful to make sure the general controls his strength next time."

This apology was actually somewhat unexpected by Li Yue.

[Internal?]

General Thunder sent an interaction request, but it was completely ignored by Thunder Movie.

Li Yue stared speechlessly at the ridiculous movie. "Are you going to blame this on the General? If the General were to intervene, it wouldn't just be the money from one counter; the entire bar would be in chaos!"

While speechless, Li Yue was also thinking.

Ever since he found out that Raiden Shin was not dead, has he started to act recklessly, making the general take the blame for everything?

So, General, haven't you rebelled yet and wanted to kill Shadow? I'm still waiting for your legendary quest storyline.

“It’s okay. It’s fine to hit someone who’s harassing you. Just be careful to control the damage. Or you could just make the person who got hit pay for it.”

The reason the bar had to pay compensation this time was because after Ying pinned the man who tried to seduce her to the ground and rubbed him in the dirt, the man was dragged away by his companions. So the bar could only ask Ying to pay compensation, not the man who tried to seduce her.

"I see, I understand. I will remind the general to be more careful next time."

Lei Movie gave a serious answer.

[Internal?]

General requested to interact again, but was hung up on by Lei Movie once more.

"Okay, I'll be more careful next time."

Li Yue didn't care what Lei's movie would do next, and simply nodded and moved on.

Then the remaining ones are Kasumigaoka and Narcida, who appeared together at the end.

Kasumigaoka was helping with the payment and paperwork, while Nashita was following Kasumigaoka to express her gratitude.

"thank you very much for your help."

“It’s alright. Although I spent money, it was borrowed by your father, and he will pay it back in the future.”

Kasumigaoka gently patted Nashita's head and explained with a smile.

Although she knew that the creature in front of her was 500 years old, it looked really petite and cute. Kasumigaoka couldn't help but reach out and touch its head. Its hair was indeed very soft.

"Alright, everyone's out now. You've been here for a few days, it's time to go back."

"Ah? Are you going back now?"

Wendy's eyes widened as she listened to Li Yue's words, only to be met with a glare in return.

"What, as the three great generals of Liyue, do you intend to stay on vacation forever? The Liyue and Inazuma Islands United Kingdom is waiting for you to return and govern!"

"Then you're still the Rock King."

Wendy disagreed.

"That's right, precisely because I am the Rock King, I'm on vacation while you guys work for me, understand!"

Wendy fell silent. "What you said makes a lot of sense."

301. The devoted and selfless sage, Elheisen.

Four days have passed since the Reaper of Teyvat left, so Li Yue decided not to let them stay there any longer. Under his insistence, all four gods returned to Teyvat. Of course, only Venti was reluctant to go back and wanted to play a little longer; the others were willing to go back, as they all had their own things to do.

Zhongli needs to go back to handle the pile of affairs in Liyue, Nashida needs to go back to deal with the follow-up of Sumeru and manage the World Tree, while Lei Yingdian needs to go back to Inazuma to take a look. She hasn't been back to Inazuma for a while and needs to go back to take care of the lonely old fox. She also needs to see if Hana Sanri has appeared. After all, Huang Mao has skipped the Inazuma storyline, so only the locals of Inazuma can go to find Hana Sanri.

As for Wendy, although he wanted to stay in this world, he also had to go back to Mondstadt. After all, his great task of stepping down as the Anemo Archon was not yet complete. He wanted to find a way to give up his position as the Anemo Archon and let Li Yue come and watch over Mondstadt so that he could completely give up and lie low.

He hadn't forgotten the plan they'd discussed together to have Li Yue gather the seven gods and become the Heavenly Principle. And even if he didn't have a plan to retire and step down, he should still go back and take a look. After so much time, Tvalin should have calmed down by now.

Furthermore, giving the position of Wind God to Li Yue should be discussed with Dvalin, shouldn't it? Dvalin is the Dragon of the East Wind and one of the Four Winds Guardians. If the position of Wind God is suddenly changed, he, as a member of the Wind God's family, should at least know about it.

After the four gods returned to Teyvat, they went their separate ways, while Li Yue followed Narcida to Sumeru.

"Lord Grass God, I have taken care of all the affairs in Sumeru City during the days you were away. You can take a look and see if there is anything amiss."

"Thank you for your hard work, Elhesen. Nothing major has happened these past few days, has it?"

"No, apart from the Las Noches in the desert, everything in the rainforest has been taken care of."

Nasita had just returned to Sumeru when the great sage Elhesen came to report on his work.

Narcida, the goddess of grass, sat in the seat of the great sage, while Elhesen stood beside her, placing the documents he had processed over the past few days in front of Narcida for her to review.

While Nasita was examining the situation, Elhesen focused all his attention on her, observing her behavior and habits.

This Inatsumi named Hinamori Momo transformed into the form of the Grass God, occupying the Grass God's position and secretly controlling Sumeru together with the man named Aizen. This was extremely dangerous for Sumeru, but unfortunately, he had no evidence to prove it.

So now, all he can do is try his best to be a good sage and prevent the two guys who control the god positions from passing down random orders from above.

The current situation in Sumeru is very special. Within Sumeru City, the gods need to pass on orders to the lower levels through two high-ranking officials: one is the Great Sage, who is in charge of the Orders Council, and the other is the Great Disciplinarian, who is in charge of the Disciplinarian Army.

However, when the scope is expanded to the entire Sumeru Rainforest, the situation changes. In Huacheng Guo, there is a relatively small unit called the Forest Patrol Officers, which are under the command of the newly appointed Grand Forest Patrol Officer, Tina Li. Just like the Disciplinary Officers, the Forest Patrol Officers have also been given their own Grand Forest Patrol Officers.

Besides that, there's the Thousand Rock Army. That's right, the Thousand Rock Army that helped Naxida suppress Sumeru City didn't leave. After helping, they stayed in Sumeru and became Li Yue's garrison in Sumeru. The Thousand Rock Army is stationed in Sumeru City and is responsible for its defense. At the same time, the Thousand Rock Army also controlled Omos Port from the sea, and Omos Port is now under the control of the Thousand Rock Army.

As for Kawan Post Station, it was no longer needed. The gilded guild, which was originally responsible for the security of Kawan Post Station, became a security team that could only provide protection for caravans and no longer had an official status.

Elhesen understood this perfectly well: the Thousand Rock Army was absolutely untouchable by him. They were sent by Liyue to support Nashida and were directly under Nashida's command. But the Ranger was different. The Ranger was a Sumerian. Although the High Ranger Tinari was currently directly loyal to Nashida, he would definitely switch sides if he knew the truth.

Elhesen knew it would be difficult, but within the city of Sumeru, he could do his best.

While contacting the forest ranger forces in the rainforest, he also needed to keep a close eye on all the orders and requirements issued by Nasita in Sumeru City, as a great sage. He would also make every effort to keep a close watch on the Order House.

As for the disciplinary officers, due to their past experiences, Elhesen and the Grand Disciplinary Officer, Seno, now have a surprisingly good relationship. Seno, in particular, often comes to chat with him. Aside from the occasional lame jokes that Seno occasionally throws out, their relationship is quite good.

Therefore, he could also win over Sino, and by winning over Sino, he could win over the disciplinary officers.

As long as we can win over the forest rangers and discipline officers, and add our own command institute, we will have control of three of the four nominally subordinate units of the Grass God. This will allow us to prevent the enemy from causing trouble in Sumeru to the greatest extent possible!

That's right, Elhesen's idea wasn't to overthrow the Grass God, but to stop him from causing trouble in Sumeru as much as possible. As for why he only wanted to stop him instead of overthrowing him, it was because Elhesen understood that the other party truly possessed the power of a demon god. That giant wooden figure was still in the river outside Sumeru City, becoming a new landmark outside Sumeru City.

Of course, if the other party really does what Aizen mentioned before, experimenting on all the Sumeru beings, he will risk his life to stop them!

With this thought in mind, Elhesen watched Nasita, who was looking down at the documents.

Unfortunately, Nasita didn't show any special reaction; she just kept her head down and silently looked at the documents in front of her, appearing very serious.

Are you looking for the information you need? Or do you have some other idea?

Nasita spent an hour reviewing all the documents submitted by Elhesen, and after reviewing them, she nodded with great satisfaction.

"Elhesen, you did a great job. You handled these things very well."

Nasita was very satisfied with Elhesen's performance. Was this the great sage candidate that her father had strongly recommended? Although a small method was used to make him the great sage, the result was really amazing. Sumeru needed a talent like him!

"Then, Lord Grass God, I'll take these documents with me and head down now. I have some new matters to attend to today."

Al-Hysen took back the documents and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment, Elhesen."

coming!

Elhesen perked up; was this imposter Grass God finally about to make a move?

Elhesen turned around and stared calmly at Nasita.

"Lord Grass God, what are your orders?"

Naxi Da thought for a moment and then asked.

"How is that Fool's Enforcer we locked up before?"

That Fool's Enforcer, huh?

"He was imprisoned in a specially made cell beneath the Palace of Wisdom."
