People in Mondstadt, starting to develop black technology

"I never hide my pursuit of Mora, because this is the foundation of my life. Of course, I am also happy to help Liyue Port earn more Mora. Only when Liyue Port becomes rich can it support my growing wealth."

Shen Qin smiled in his heart. She kept saying that she was doing it for herself, but in the game, in order to save Liyue, she could abandon the Qun Yu Pavilion that she had spent a huge amount of Mora to build without hesitation.

Of course, she might also be trying to protect her own property in Liyue Harbor. After all, if Liyue Harbor was destroyed, her wealth would no longer exist.

Whether it is for herself or for Liyue, perhaps only she herself knows.

After coming out of the main building, everyone returned to the garden. Ningguang led them to a pavilion where Ganyu was already sitting waiting. Bai Shi, one of the three hundred, had prepared tea and cakes for everyone in the pavilion.

Ganyu stood up and greeted them: "Everyone, see you again!"

"Sister Ganyu!" Klee waved to her happily.

"Hello, Keri!"

She's clearly not very good at dealing with people who are very approachable.

"Please be more relaxed and enjoy the rare tranquility of Liyue Harbor at night."

Ningguang sat casually beside the stone table, picked up a piece of yellow cake and put it in her mouth: "The yellow one is osmanthus cake, the green one is mung bean cake, and the black one is black rice cake. The taste is very light, I think you will like it."

Shen Qin sat down without hesitation, picked up a piece of mung bean cake and started eating. It tasted exactly the same as in his hometown in his previous life.

Seeing Shen Qin sitting down, Shatang pulled Keli to sit next to him.

Ningguang poured tea for everyone and asked, "Shen Qin, what do you think of Liyue Harbor now?"

"It is thriving and prosperous."

"Yes, Liyue has been like this since it developed hundreds of years ago. It has always been the most prosperous city in Teyvat and is worthy of its title of 'Commercial Capital'. However, its development speed has declined in recent years."

"In the past ten years, Liyue's annual economic growth rate has dropped from 10% to 50%. Judging from the downward trend, it will definitely continue to decline in the next few years."

"After more than a year of research, we, the Seven Stars, have come to the conclusion that the reason for limiting economic growth is that Liyue Harbor can no longer expand its land area. The current Liyue Harbor not only cannot meet commercial needs, but is also about to be unable to meet the residential needs of the Liyue people."

"So we want to develop other areas of Liyue and build new cities. It just so happened that the construction of Academy City started some time ago. Someone from our decision-making team went to Academy City to learn from it and found that your city planning was completely tailored to the Wind Dragon Ruins, and the main part of the planning was done by you."

"So someone has asked you to come to Liyue to participate in the development planning of the new city. We are also looking forward to your valuable suggestions."

The person you are talking about who went to Academy City to seek advice is probably Zhongli, right?

"The area you finally decided to develop is Guiliyuan?" Shen Qin started to get serious.

Ningguang took a holographic projector made in Academy City from Baishi, projected a holographic map of Liyue on the stone table, pointed at Guiliyuan and said, "Yes, I believe you can easily see that Guiliyuan's geographical location in Liyue is very special. It is the largest plain in Liyue and is located in the center of Liyue."

"If we build a city in Guiliyuan, the road network will extend from here to the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest, and the entire Liyue can be connected. The geographical location on land is superior to that of Liyue Port."

"The only advantage of Liyue Harbor is that it is close to the sea, and the waterline of the coastline is deep enough to berth large ships. But the focus of Liyue's commercial development may shift to Mondstadt in the future, so Guiliyuan, which has convenient land transportation, is the most suitable place to build a new city."

Ningguang glanced at Shen Qin. She believed that Academy City would become the economic center of Teyvat in the next ten or even dozens of years, but its commercial attributes were not very strong. It was mainly based on scientific research and production. Therefore, the new city returning to its original location would be able to take over the commodity trading market of Academy City.

Shen Qin frowned: "Guiliyuan is indeed very suitable for building a city, but the ancient ruins on it are a big problem. If they are too restrictive, it is better to move to a place with a relatively less advantageous geographical location."

Ningguang nodded. "Yes, how to deal with the ancient ruins is the biggest difficulty at the moment. You may need to come up with a plan. My opinion is that if there is really no other way, some of the ruins can be abandoned. They have great historical significance, but when they hinder future development, it is necessary to abandon them."

Keqing, who was standing by, wanted to say something when she heard this, but she held back. This was the only point of disagreement between her and Ningguang on the development plan. The two had had several arguments before, but neither could convince the other.

Both are stubborn people.

She didn't want to bring up the conflict between them in front of Shen Qin, as it would make things very difficult for him.

Shen Qin said, "Regarding the disposal method of the ancient ruins... let's talk about it after I go to Guiliyuan for investigation."

At this time, Keli didn't understand what they were saying and felt a little bored, so she jumped off the chair and ran to the depths of the garden to adventure.

She just saw a pond that seemed to have fish in it.

"Hey - Miss Kelly..." Bai Shi wanted to stop her.

Ningguang interrupted Baishi and said, "It's okay, let her go. Can she blow up the Qun Yu Pavilion?"

Shen Qin: It really works!

He said to Sandang politely, "You go and keep an eye on her, in case she can't find her way back."

"Ah."

Chapter 220: Fertilizer mixed with Jinkela, rice yield per mu 1800

Klee was just a small episode, and everyone in the pavilion continued with the previous topic.

"This is the situation with Guiliyuan. You need to think of more solutions. But I still have some questions to ask you. Do you think that other areas of Liyue are worth developing besides Guiliyuan?" Ningguang looked at Shen Qin.

Shen Qin looked at the map for a moment, pointed at Qingce Village and said, "I remember Qingce Village is the main rice supplier in Liyue, right?"

Gan Yu, who was familiar with these data, said, "Yes, Qingce Manor owns 90% of Liyue's arable land. Its annual rice production is about 10 million tons, half of which is used to meet the survival needs of Liyue locals, and the other half is processed and exported to other countries."

Shen Qin: "Can I ask about the rice planting area and yield per mu in Qingce Village?"

Ganyu and Ningguang looked at each other and smiled, "This is not a secret. We will publish all the data in Liyue Port every year. The rice planting area in Qingce Village is about 35 million mu, with an average yield of about 150 kilograms per mu, and two harvests per year."

The yield per mu is only 150 kilograms? The average yield per mu on Earth has now reached about 500 kilograms!

There should be relatively little research in Teyvat in this area, and there is definitely room for improvement in rice yield per mu!

The fertilizer was mixed with Jinkela, and the rice yield per mu was 1,800 yuan.

Shen Qin pondered for a moment and said, "Academy City can do some research on rice and increase the rice yield per mu in Qingce Village. In addition to rice, Qingce Village also grows a lot of other crops, right?"

"Yes, Qingce Manor's annual agricultural output accounts for 80% of the entire Liyue!" Ganyu's face was full of joy. "If Academy City is willing to study and improve Qingce Manor's rice, we in Liyue will definitely cooperate in all aspects!"

Most people recognize the scientific research capabilities of Academy City, and she also knows that Sucrose and Albedo are good at life alchemy, so improving rice should not be a problem!

Shen Qin: "Then I suggest that we build Qingce Manor into Liyue's crop production base and concentrate our efforts on growing crops. Academy City can also design a series of automated intelligent planting systems specifically for Qingce Manor to scientifically increase crop yields."

Ningguang and the other two nodded and took note of this point so they could discuss it later.

"Then do you think that Minlin, Mingyun Town, the south of Tianheng... the Layered Rock Abyss are worth developing?" Ningguang asked with interest, and it seemed that she really wanted to drain everything out of Shen Qin's brain.

But now that the topic has been brought up, Shen Qin is not going to hide anything and speaks out all his thoughts. Whether or not his suggestions are accepted or whether or not they are inspired is none of his business.

He is not one of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

Back to the development of Liyue.

Mingyun Town was created because of minerals, but now the mineral resources have been exhausted and the town is deserted. In just one year, it has become an uninhabited ghost town.

Apart from being located at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, it has no development value, but Shen Qin is attracted by its cheap land! There are neither historical sites nor resources there, but this also means that there will not be too many constraints on large-scale construction there.

Shen Qin took a fancy to the land, but he had not yet decided what to do with it.

Minlin is the residence of immortals. The terrain is dangerous, but the scenery is equally unique. The sea of ​​clouds between the clouds is definitely one of the most beautiful scenery in Teyvat.

This reminded Shen Qin of Zhangjiajie on Earth. He believed that Minlin also had the potential to become a famous natural tourist attraction in Teyvat.

As for the south of Tianheng, this basin mainly contains three large ruins, namely Dunyuling, Lingjuguan and Qingxupu. It is very troublesome to deal with them and the geographical conditions are not very good. It is better to repair them directly and develop them into a tourist attraction with famous historical sites.

There is also the most difficult to deal with, the Layered Rock Chasm.

Shen Qin was afraid that its development would lead to pollution deep in the strata, but he was also jealous of its rich mineral resources, so he did not propose any development ideas for the strata abyss for the time being.

Because Shen Qin said too much, Ningguang had to turn on the recording function of the terminal bracelet and prepare to slowly sort out his opinions later when it was more convenient.

"Shen Qin, I didn't expect you to have thought so much about Liyue, and most of your suggestions are very constructive. This really... makes us not know how to thank you."

Keqing was a little touched. She thought that after she told him about the development of Guiliyuan, although he did not come to Liyue, he had already started investigating and preparing.

What an admirable professionalism!

"Uh..." Shen Qin didn't know how to explain.

When he was playing Genshin Impact in his previous life and it was in its infancy, he would discuss various topics extending from the game with other silly netizens online, such as "I traveled through time to the Seven Stars of Liyue and started the era of large-scale infrastructure construction", "My journey to becoming the richest man from Liyue started"...

The possibility of developing Liyue can be said to be just one of the topics.

“Shen Qin.” Ningguang held his hand solemnly. “We have taken note of your kindness towards Liyue. I, Ningguang, hereby promise that you and Academy City will always be Liyue’s best allies!”

Gan Yu looked at Shen Qin with admiration: "Your foresight makes me feel inferior. Perhaps you are more suitable to be Yue Haiting's secretary than me..."

Shen Qin: "Ah, this..."

I’m in trouble. This guy is being too pretentious!

Just when he didn't know how to end it, there was a flash of light suddenly appearing in the depths of the garden, followed by a deafening explosion.

boom--

Ningguang, Keqing, Ganyu: “???”

Shen Qin: “!!!”

Five seconds later, a team of guards arrived outside the pavilion on flying skateboards. They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the three senior officials of Liyue were all safe and sound.

The captain of the guard asked the others to go to the site of the explosion to investigate. He came to the front of everyone, bowed, and said, "Everyone, please leave the Jade Pavilion immediately. After we have checked the dangers in the Jade Pavilion..."

Shen Qin pulled the corner of his mouth and said stiffly: "No need, I roughly know which 'thug' caused this noise."

They came to the depths of the garden and saw Klee sitting on a big rock with her head down. Sucrose stood beside her with a sad face, and the guards surrounded them in confusion - they thought it was an assassin who caused the explosion, but they didn't expect it was Lady Ningguang's guest, so they didn't know what to do.

Shen Qin shifted his gaze to the artificial pond next to Keli, only to see that the water surface was much shallower than before. What was even worse was that the rockery in the middle of the pond was broken directly in the middle, and jumping carp were scattered all over the edge of the pond.

A fat carp jumped to Ningguang's feet, then lay flat on the ground and died.

Shen Qin clearly saw that Ningguang, who seemed to never show her emotions, twitched her lips and actually lost her composure.

He came in front of Keli and said seriously: "Keli, tell me the truth about your crime... your trouble!"

Chapter 221 I Will Always Be Master Ningguang’s Dog

Ningguang asked the guards to leave first, and then came to Shen Qin to find out what had happened.

"Klee and Sugar were watching the fish by the pond, and they all ran over to us. I thought they were hungry, so I took some snacks from my backpack to feed them. After I finished one bag, I wanted to take the second bag, but I took out the bomb instead."

"I didn't intend to blow up the fish! But I lit the fuse out of habit and threw the bomb into the pond..."

Frying fish brings out the conditioned reflex.

Everyone knows what happened next. The shock wave of the explosion blew all the fish in the pond into the sky and cut off the rockery.

"It's all my fault. I didn't keep a good eye on her..." Sucrose said sadly. She couldn't remember how many times Klee had broken through her blockade and caused trouble.

Shen Qin comforted her: "Don't blame yourself too much. If she didn't get into trouble under our supervision, she wouldn't be Keli."

granulated sugar:"……"

“Sister Ningguang, Klee was wrong. Klee didn’t mean it…”

Klee apologized to Ningguang pitifully, tears already gathering in her eyes. If someone said something harsh, the tears would keep falling like beads from a broken string.

Ningguang's heart softened instantly. What she could never resist were the smiles and tears of children.

She squatted down to look at Keli at eye level, touched Keli's head with her hand, and said gently: "Keli, it's okay, I just want to change the rockery in this pond, it's too ugly! And I also plan to replace the carp in the pond with goldfish. Goldfish are cuter than carp, aren't they?"

Bai Shi, who was following her, pouted: "This rockery was clearly selected by Lady Ningguang herself after spending half a month..."

"Hmm?" Ningguang turned around and glared at her, causing her to shut up instantly.

Ningguang asked Klee and Sucrose with concern: "Are you hurt?"

"No! Sister Sugar used the element of wind to block the water and bombs!"

Seeing that Ningguang did not blame her, Klee became proud again. She secretly glanced at Shen Qin and saw helplessness on his face. She felt relieved. As long as he was not angry, it would be fine.

Although Sister Shatang still looked quite angry, as long as he apologized sincerely, she would definitely forgive him, right? If that didn't work, he could only ask Brother Shen Qin to help. He would definitely have a way to coax her!

Keqing, who was standing by, looked at the farce in front of her and shook her head helplessly. She thought of what Jean had said to her on the comms - beware of fire, theft and Klee.

She didn't take it seriously at the time, but the reality before her finally made her take it seriously.

Ningguang took Keli's hand and said to Baishi, "Baishi, arrange for someone to clean up this place, then go back and pick a better-looking rockery, and collect a few dozen goldfish and put them in the pond."

"Yes."

Keli suddenly stopped and pointed at the carp on the ground and asked seriously, "Will these fish be thrown away?"

Bai Shidao: "Yes, they are kitchen waste..."

"It's such a waste, why don't we grill them? Klee, let us treat everyone to grilled fish!" Klee said excitedly.

Everyone: "..."

Ningguang was also stunned, then smiled and said, "Okay!"
