Be a legal businessman in Liyue!

It seems to be correct to say that this is alive.

But to say he is a human? It seems not.

Unlike Lei's movies, Wang Que is very direct. After the puppet is made, he erases the soul of its birth.

Lei Dianying needs puppets to help him govern the country, but Wang Que doesn't.

He just needs a tool.

"Well, your research is always bizarre." Xingqiu curled his lips, regained his balance, and looked away from the man. "So why did you call me over here today?"

"Of course it's a good thing."

Wang Que smiled and pointed to the sofa beside him: "Sit down first, Smart Brain, bring some tea and snacks."

[Beep, the command has been received.]

Xingqiu sat down. "Intelligent Brain, I want some date cake."

[Ding, Permission: Senior Visitor, instruction approved.]

"You know how to give orders." Wang Que laughed.

Xingqiu waved his hand and raised his head. "Don't tell me. It was me who asked my family to add a smart module to the airship. It would be foolish not to use such a convenient thing."

"Then thank you very much. I will make a lot more money." Wang Que said with a smile.

Chapter 315 Food War?

While talking.

Tea and snacks were brought in from a small floating platform.

These small floating platforms are now equipped with robotic arms, which makes them extremely convenient.

Xingqiu took a piece of date cake, put it into his mouth, and smacked it twice.

In front of Wang Que, he no longer looked like a young master.

"Tell me, what kind of business is it? If I can't lose money, I'll agree."

Wang Que's face darkened: "Do I always make you lose money?"

Xingqiu waved his hand. "Not really. I just have an attitude. As long as I don't lose money, I'll follow."

"Hmph." Wang Que hummed, then got to the point, "Inazuma is about to lift the lockdown order, so I want to invite Feiyun Chamber of Commerce to jointly develop the Inazuma market."

Hearing Wang Que's words, Xingqiu became anxious and choked on the jujube cake, so he took several gulps of tea.

"Phew, I almost choked to death."

"No one is competing with you for the food, so eat slowly." Wang Que teased.

Xingqiu rolled his eyes. "Is it a question of eating fast or slow? How do you know Inazuma's lockdown is about to be lifted?"

"To be precise, the Eye Hunting Order will be lifted first, and the National Lockdown Order will be lifted after a while."

Wang Que explained.

Even though Inazuma did not immediately lift the lockdown order, it seemed as if Lei's will was not completely reversed.

In fact, it is indeed impossible to directly lift the lockdown order.

The economic market for Inazuma has been almost destroyed.

It must be allowed to recover a little before outsiders can slowly come in.

Otherwise, the huge external capital will directly destroy Inazuma's domestic economy.

At that time, capitalists like Pantalone would probably laugh like dogs barking.

However, although the lockdown will not be lifted immediately, it does not mean that Wang Que cannot do business.

Don't forget, he has three docks on the outlying islands.

What? You're saying that the Eightfold Divine Son might not keep his promise?

But Wang Que was not afraid. He believed that the Eightfold Son of God would never dare to target him again.

Let’s not talk about the oath to Raiden Zhen.

Just take the fact that Wang Que destroyed a corner of the Thunder God's throne this time as an example. This was enough for her to learn a lesson.

If you don’t learn your lesson, haha, then [King·Thor·Que] will really be online.

"For some reason, I have three docks on the Inazuma Islands."

"There are also other reasons. Inazuma City suffered heavy damage, and Inazuma must be in great need of external material support."

"Look, Feiyun Commercial Bank has the goods, I have access to the docks, and Inazuma needs supplies."

"We help Inazuma recover and rebuild, and we only ask for a small reward (reach out, point to the universe)."

Wang Que's eyes lit up: "This is a win-win-win situation!"

Xingqiu remained unmoved by Wang Que's persuasion and remained calm. "Putting aside your source for now, have you considered that even if Inazuma desperately needs the goods, as long as they resist the pressure and don't purchase them, we'll suffer losses for one more day!"

Wang Que waved his hand and said, "I've thought of this a long time ago. Inazuma doesn't just have Narugami Island. If those people in Inazuma City don't want our goods, we'll sell them to Kaigi Island."

"I have a very good relationship with Haiji Island. You can ask the big sister about Haiji Island's reputation. It's also very good."

"So, now that there are no thunderstorms in the Inazuma Sea, as long as we ship the goods over there, it will be pure profit."

Before Inazuma City burned down, he couldn't make any money. Now Inazuma City is half burned down. If he still can't make any money, then Inazuma City would have burned down in vain!

Thinking of the burning Inazuma City, Wang Que thought of Rosaline again, and then he marveled at his own wit.

Let Ying bring Rosaline's body back. Whether we give it to Mond or Zhidong, we can make a profit.

"How about we become partners?" Wang Que's eyes were burning.

Xingqiu nodded slightly. Since Wang Que said so, he definitely couldn't refuse.

"Then let's talk. First, we need to confirm what cargo we want to transport." Xingqiu sat up straight.

"Food, medicine, and sophisticated engineering equipment, these are definitely what Inazuma needs very much." Wang Que said.

Food is definitely needed by Inazuma. However, due to the closed-door policy and the hunting order, fertile fields were abandoned and there was a serious food shortage.

Medicines are even more necessary. Whether it is the wounded caused by war or the pollution caused by evil spirits, Inazuma cannot do without a large amount of medicines.

As for the engineering equipment, it was naturally prepared for the burning Inazuma City.

The other party can obtain some earthwork and wood materials in Inazuma's country.

But engineering equipment, especially precision engineering equipment, can greatly speed up the progress of the project and can be sold to them at a high price.

This is also the reason why he wants to cooperate with Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. Apart from engineering machinery, food and medicine are not areas that Wang Que is currently good at.

Although he also wanted to compensate Feiyun Chamber of Commerce for the previous plantation incident, it was more because among the people Wang Que knew, only Feiyun Chamber of Commerce could provide the food, medicine and other supplies needed for a country's reconstruction.

Of course, Qixing is definitely okay, but Wang Que doesn’t want to play with Qixing now.

Xingqiu nodded slightly. "Food, medicine... sure. We can also add some other daily necessities. How do we determine the price?"

"Ten times the price!" Wang Que grinned. "Except for food, everything else will be ten times the price."

Xingqiu frowned: "Ten times?"

"Is it too much?" Wang Que hesitated.

Xingqiu shook his head. "No, if you want to stabilize grain prices, ten times the price would be hard to sustain..."

Xingqiu was halfway through his words when his eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Wang Que with wide eyes: "You want to control Inazuma's food!"

He suddenly realized why Wang Que marked the prices of other goods at least ten times higher than the grain.

Because cheap food can destroy high-priced food in the country.

Once the local food is destroyed and farmers cannot earn enough Mora, then... this market will continue to fall into Wang Que's hands.

Wang Que grinned and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I never said that."

"The plantation is improving the soil, and I think the first phase of planting is about to begin. When that happens, a large amount of grain will enter the market, which will inevitably impact the farmers in Qingce Village. That's why I just found a market in advance."

Wang Que spoke righteously, as if he were a saint.

Speaking of which, he also contributed to the crop cultivation on the plantation.

He gave Keqing an alchemical formula to desalinate the soil.

With the help of Qixing's methods, the development of the grain plantation went smoothly.

Not only was the remaining land of the Elemental Plantation reused, but it also continued to expand outward.

Keqing's previous statement that the Seven Stars were worried about the coming of war and were preparing to stockpile food was probably true.

Of course, hoarding grain does not affect exports, so it is reasonable for Wang Que to find a new market.

"Really?" Xingqiu didn't believe it.

Wang Que: "Really."

Xingqiu tutted, then said, "Controlling a country's grain market is a terrifying prospect, so I suggest we selectively target one or several crops."

Wang Que became interested when he heard this: "What do you mean?"

Xingqiu glanced at him and said, "You don't want to!"

But he didn't hide it and said directly: "I have learned about the daily food composition of the Inazuma people. I suggest we choose rice and beans."

"Rice is the staple food of Inazuma, and beans are an indispensable ingredient in various Inazuma rituals."

"We are only targeting the market for two crops. As long as we can capture them, we will have a steady stream of business."

There was no trace of chivalry in Xingqiu's words.

At this time, he was the real second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.

No one really thinks Xingqiu is obsessed with material things and incapable of doing business, right? No way, no way.

"Good idea." Some things that happened before the time travel emerged in Wang Que's mind.

Soybean Wars.

"I have a better idea." Wang Que grinned.

Xingqiu raised an eyebrow: "What?"

"First, impact their soybean market, and then give them a batch of high-yield soybean seeds." Wang Que said quietly.

Xingqiu's pupils shrank. "You are so wicked!"

Giving people high-yield bean seeds sounds like a good thing, but there are too many ways to tamper with it.

Giving bad seeds will make the farmers’ hard work for a year go to waste.

You could even be ruthless and add some viruses to destroy other crops as well.

As long as we purchase grain seeds from abroad, this kind of thing will be difficult to completely avoid.

Xingqiu waved his hands repeatedly, "No, normal business wars are fine, but this is too unethical."

He smelled the weaponization of food.

Even in the form of the Second Young Master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Xingqiu's moral sense could not accept such a thing.

"Ha, don't worry, these are real bean seeds. I won't tamper with them." Wang Que's mouth twitched. "Am I already so wicked in your eyes now?"

He wanted to turn Inazuma into a new soybean planting base for dumping to other countries.

After all, his industries are too concentrated in Liyue.

Xingqiu rolled his eyes. "Do you know what people are saying now? Not even the Fatui can take advantage of Boss Wang."

Wang Que was immediately dissatisfied: "I've been taken advantage of quite a few times, right? Qixing has taken advantage of me quite a lot."

"Come on, with your personality, if there really was no benefit, you would have fallen out with Qixing long ago."

Xingqiu curled his lips. "However, if the high-yield bean seeds you mentioned really exist, then the plan is feasible. We can let them rely on our bean seeds, and even expand and completely control Inazuma's food production."

Wang Que thought about it and shook his head: "It's impossible to have complete control. There are still smart people among Inazuma."

Not to mention this guy Yae Shinko, he will definitely pay special attention to his business.

Even Kamisato Ayato is not a fool and can definitely see what the Liyue merchants are thinking.
