Their commission was suspicious.

There are still two hours until the Seven Stars Invitation Ceremony begins. Ningguang can still move around freely before the auspicious time arrives.

After saying that, Ningguang left with the small wooden carving in her hand.

"Lady Ningguang, should we have someone keep a closer eye on these people?" After walking a short distance, Ningguang's secretary asked in a low voice.

"No need. The other party is indeed using the purest immortal magic, and when they said they weren't interested in Mora, their expression wasn't fake. There's a good chance that such a person is a true immortal descendant."

"Especially the white-haired woman next to him, who is so young yet has a full head of white hair and a cold expression. The red rope on her body is faintly forming a sealing technique. Perhaps she is the purest disciple of the immortals."

"Moreover, the opponent's use of wind elemental power is so skillful that... they might be able to hear us right now. Let's skip sending someone to monitor them."

"But Yelan seems to have just returned from a foreign country, right? If she's interested, why not let her come and browse around here?" Ningguang said softly, toying with the "Little Ningguang" in her hand, lost in thought.

......

"By the way, how much money have we made?" Chen Luo turned to ask the Herrscher of Knowledge beside him.

"How would I know if you ask me? I'm in charge of publicity, not sales. You're the one in charge of sales, aren't you?" The Lawyer of Knowledge, who was keen on being a con artist, sat down in his seat with some excitement.

"Shen He, how much Mora do I still owe you?" Chen Luo turned to Shen He and asked.

"I don't know." Shen He shook his head.

Shen He is not interested in Mora.

"...If the three of us go into business, we'll lose everything sooner or later," Chen Luo said after a moment of silence.

Chen Luo, Shen He, and Shi Zhilu Zhe are the three people.

Those who understand the laws of nature are only interested in how to use the best marketing methods to sell those exquisitely crafted ornaments.

Shen He, following Chen Luo's advice, observed the expressions and behaviors of the passing merchants, as well as the conversations between the customers and merchants at the surrounding stalls.

Although it's unclear whether Shen He listened attentively, he was at least very serious.

Chen Luo? Chen Luo is only interested in raw stones.

As for Celine? Celine is in charge of being the mascot.

All Xilin needed to do was sit quietly in Chen Luo's lap.

Xilin is a woman of few words and prefers to stay quietly by Chen Luo's side.

Overall, today's earnings should be quite substantial, but I ran into an unlucky guy who lost 5 Mora.

After briefly tallying today's earnings, Chen Luo began carving the Liyue Millennium.

Although Chen Luo had never been in contact with Liyue for a thousand years before, he could read minds.

Chen Luo obtained the relevant information while Ningguang was contemplating the millennium of Liyue.

At least Chen Luo can carve out the basic framework first, and then deal with the finer details after the samples arrive.

That's 200 Originium! That's not a small amount for Ningguang, a merchant.

Chen Luo didn't look down on businessmen; it was just that businessmen's desires were sometimes not entirely pure.

Of course, if the other party genuinely wants a certain item, they are the same as any other person.

As for the +10 favorability bonus, to be honest, it's dispensable for Chen Luo.

Women only distract me from my speed when I'm earning raw stones. But treasure hunters don't.

Although Chen Luo did like Ningguang's character in the early stages of the game, after all, she was fair-skinned, beautiful, had long legs, and was rich, who wouldn't like her?

Or rather, Chen Luo has always loved all anime characters, such as Durandal, Kiana, Raiden Mei, Jean, Lisa, Yura, and all other female characters.

Male characters? Does Wendy count?

However, Chen Luo understood one thing deeply: women would only affect his speed in earning raw stones.

Therefore, after becoming a Herald of Knowledge, Chen Luo would frequently adjust his mood index.

If you have no woman in your heart, making money will naturally be a godsend!

So if you feel that Chen Luo might occasionally really like a character, but then suddenly calms down after a dozen seconds, don't be surprised.

It's highly likely that Chen Luo has entered a semi-sage mode. However, this isn't a complete sage state; it simply means he won't let these emotions influence his judgment. He still likes what he likes, otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen the fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged Raven as a bartender. He also doesn't like what he dislikes, so Chen Luo won't take on the "Flying Sparrow Disturbs Sword Intent" quest.

Women will only slow down Chen Luo's speed in earning raw stones.

Say the important thing three times.

But Shi Bao wouldn't, because she hadn't commissioned anyone at all.

Well, these cute armed dolls won't either.

Since armed dolls rarely receive requests that come with a high frequency, it's not a big problem.

However, this behavior of frequently adjusting his mood index has also put Chen Luo in a dilemma: what will he do if he finds a girlfriend in the future?

"Um, boss, are all these Rock King puppets 5000 Mora?" A voice with a hint of joy rang out.

"For those with [original] items, it's 5000 Mora, and we can even offer a 90% discount. For those without [original] items, the price depends on my mood," Chen Luo said without looking up.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Reward: 80 Primogems

Holy crap, so many.

Hmm, wait a minute, why does that voice sound so familiar?

Chen Luo's hand, which was carving the Liyue Millennium Go stones, suddenly paused.

Chen Luo slowly looked up and saw a beautiful woman with ice-blue hair.

Chapter 319 Wang Xiaomei? Who is that?

"Huh? So mood has a price?" The woman, who looked like a young girl, was surprised.

“Ah, yes, I set the price according to my mood. Some people come to me to buy the Rock Prince doll because they genuinely like it, while others are just curious. Those who genuinely like it are destined to meet me, while the others are not.” Chen Luo glanced at the other person and nodded.

To put it simply, you're asking for such a great and exquisite Geo Archon doll without even posting a request? And you expect a discount? You're dreaming.

If you don't have any Primogems, then use Mora to double your compensation.

"Then, how can I tell if someone truly likes me?" the girl asked.

"Of course... it's about looking into their eyes."

It depends on whether there's a client or not.

You want a Geo Archon doll without even requesting one?

"You can tell that from that?"

"Of course you can. I can tell you really want a doll, right, Miss?"

“That’s true.” The girl nodded.

At the same time, the girl couldn't help but glance at the white-haired girl sitting next to Chen Luo.

The other person exuded an aura of detachment from the world and otherworldly transcendence that was simply too strong.

I think that's roughly how I felt when I first joined Liyue Harbor.

"Alright then, since you're destined to have these dolls and we're destined to have them, you can pick any doll from the stall, whether it's on the left or the right, consider it a gift," Chen Luo said quite generously.

Wow, that's fifty raw stones! You can have ten, not just one.

"Give it away for free? That's not a good idea, is it?" Hearing Chen Luo's reply, the girl felt a little awkward about Chen Luo's generosity.

"Oh, right, let me confirm, you are Miss Gan Yu, right?" Chen Luo asked.

"Yes, yes, you know me?" Gan Yu was a little surprised that Chen Luo could call her name so readily. After all, Gan Yu had a good memory, but she didn't remember ever seeing these people in front of her.

"Hmm?" Upon hearing the name Gan Yu, Shen He looked at Gan Yu.

You might not believe it, but Shen He and Gan Yu were both raised by Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun, making them essentially fellow disciples, yet they have never met.

Shen He had heard a lot about Gan Yu from Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun before, but it was just hearsay.

The image of Gan Yu in Shen He's mind is quite different from the reality now.

She has long, blue hair that is tied back into a ponytail and hangs down naturally. She has a single tuft of hair on top of her head, and two small, black and red unicorn horns growing on either side of her head.

She wore a short white cheongsam with gold patterns, over which was a tight-fitting backless bodysuit and black stockings.

This gave Shen He the impression that she was too quiet and refined.

"W-What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Gan Yu asked, sensing Shen He's gaze.

Gan Yu guessed that the child might be a disciple of a celestial being or a cultivator in the mountains, and might have even heard about her story.

“…” Shen He shook his head.

Since my master said to go to the other party if anything happens, then I don't need to go to the other party now that nothing has happened to me, right?

“It’s Miss Gan Yu, that’s perfect. Feel free to pick any of these items, or even a few if you like. Consider them a friendly gift. Don’t rush to refuse; perhaps you can take a closer look at the patterns on these puppets first.” Chen Luo said immediately before Gan Yu could even say anything about refusing.

Shen He has been by Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun's side for more than ten years, but Gan Yu has known Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun for more than three thousand years.

Chen Luo felt that Gan Yu was more or less familiar with the things of Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun. After all, Chen Luo remembered from the plot analysis that Gan Yu's favorite thing when she was a child was to run around in Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhen Jun's mechanical house.

"But to take something from someone else for free, especially such an exquisite Rock King Emperor doll..." Gan Yu still seemed a little unable to accept it.

"How about this, if you can figure out who these puppeteers learned from, these puppets will be yours for free." This was a different way of putting it.

"Ah? Oh. I see. I'll give it a try then." Gan Yu nodded.

Riddles and freebies are two different behavioral logics.

Gan Yu squatted down and picked up one of the Emperor figurines to examine it closely.

At first, Gan Yu didn't notice anything special. The only thing she could tell was that the Emperor doll was really beautiful. But soon, Gan Yu noticed something different.

"Hmm? This is... array patterns? And this style... is it the style of the True Lord of Cloud Retention and Wind Borrowing?" Wang Xiaomei suddenly looked up at Chen Luo.

Wang Xiaomei... Gan Yu was extremely familiar with Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, after all, Gan Yu had been playing with Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun's mechanisms since childhood.

So here's the question: why does this doll have the array pattern of the True Lord of Cloud Retention and Wind Borrowing?

"Did you learn this puppet-making technique from the True Lord of Cloud Retention and Wind Borrowing?" Gan Yu was genuinely surprised.

Gan Yu really didn't expect to encounter something even more familiar in the familiar Liyue Harbor.

"Mm." Chen Luo nodded.

"Due to some chance events, I read some books on puppetry and mechanical arts compiled by True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, and that's where I learned this skill," Chen Luo said honestly.

"I see..."

"By the way, let me introduce you. This is Shen He," Chen Luo said, pointing to Shen He.

If nothing unexpected happens, Chen Luo can basically solve all the problems he encounters, so he naturally won't need to specifically look for Gan Yu. However, since Gan Yu has already come to him, it would seem strange to deliberately hide it, since it's not something that needs to be kept secret.

"Ah? Shen He, is that the disciple that True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng took in more than ten years ago?" Gan Yu looked at Shen He a few more times, sizing him up.

"Hmm, don't you think all of you are wearing the same style of clothes?" Chen Luo complained from the side.

To be honest, Chen Luo felt that the clothes worn by these two fellow disciples were really outrageous.

Chen Luo even suspected that the two sets of clothes were originally one set, but because Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun had two students, he split one set of clothes into two sets (unfounded speculation).

"Ah, so the red rope on her body is indeed the Red String Soul Binding Technique?" Gan Yu suddenly realized.

Gan Yu had sensed from earlier that there were too many red rope elements on Shen He's body. Now, after being reminded and observing carefully, Gan Yu finally discerned the main purpose of these red ropes.

However, Gan Yu was still quite strange.

Gan Yu and Shen He were not familiar with each other, and had never even met before. She had only heard Liu Yun Jie Feng Zhenjun mention her a few times, saying that she had a fierce temper and could easily cause serious damage to the surrounding area if she couldn't suppress her temper.

However, the other party now gave Gan Yu a rather calm feeling, at least there was no strange destructive desire or anything like that.

I haven't seen anywhere that they have a fierce temperament or anything like that.

"Hello," Shen He said to Gan Yu in a calm tone.

"Ah, hello."

After learning in advance that this person was Shen He, Gan Yu found that many things matched up, such as the white hair, the ice-type God's Eye, and the red rope on his body.

"So, for the sake of True Lord Liuyun, you can choose anything you like," Chen Luo said, pointing to the various statues of the Rock King Emperor on his stall.

"After all, you've already answered the question correctly, haven't you?" Before Gan Yu could speak, Chen Luo cut her off.
