Seeker of Teyvat

Paimon pouted, looking very angry.

"That's it, then Paimon will be angry here. Let's go to eat first." Wang Daoyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Lei Movie, "Your Majesty, how about we go to eat together? You just want to take a look at the current rice Wife, on-the-spot investigation is the truth."

After hearing Wang Daoyi's words, Lei Qianqian, who originally wanted to refuse, showed a trace of hesitation on his face.

Although he and Ying had visited Daozhu City once, she was indeed still unfamiliar with today's Daozhu.

She didn't understand many things that Daozhu people took for granted.

Seeing Lei Qianqian's hesitation, Wang Daoyi gave the fox woman watching the show a look.

Yae Shenzi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood that the two gods' relatives reached a deal with an inexplicable tacit understanding.

"Ying, let's go together. I'll go too. I'll accompany you to see the present Inazuma. Didn't you say that you and the general would carefully examine the present Inazuma, sort out the current situation, and consider the future? Then, why not start with this 'gathering'!"

After a slight pause, Yae Kamiko continued in a very soothing tone: "Kage, you haven't been to a party for a long, long time!"

"Party..." Lei Dianying's expression became more relaxed. She looked at the smiling Yae Shenzi and suddenly smiled, "Well, since we want to start over, let's start from today, but..."

"But what?" Wang Daoyi asked curiously.

Lei Yingdian's eyes moved, revealing a rare hint of ridicule: "But... as the Lord of Narukami, I naturally don't have any Mora. I won't pay for the meal at this party."

ha?

Everyone was shocked by the sudden change of Lei Movie.

After a while,

Yae Shinko smiled: "Haha, so the high and mighty General can also have such a joking side? It's really... I haven't seen it for a long time!"

There was a little nostalgia in her expression.

When she was still ignorant, when those big monsters were still there, so was the general.

"Haha, let's go, today~" Wang Dao laughed, then turned his eyes and said, "Paimon's treat today!"

"Hey, ah? Why is it my treat, and I don't have Mora? No, I'm still angry!" Pamon was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands quickly, and then remembered that he was still angry, and quickly put on an angry look. .

Wang Dao raised his eyebrows, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "Okay, okay, how about a treat? Paimon can eat more."

"Eh? Is that so? Okay, okay!"

Seeing Paimon looking happy again, Ying slapped her forehead helplessly,

Didn't she use Paimon's food money for her treat?

However, looking at Paimon's silly and cheerful look, Ying still didn't say a word to remind him, but nodded: "Okay, let me treat you. It just so happens that everyone is my friend!"

"Oh, then I won't be polite." Yae Shenzi said with disdain.

It seems like he didn't mean anything good.

"Then let's go and accompany the General to see the rice wife today. The first stop might as well be on an outlying island."

Wang Dao waved his hand, and a blue earth channel opened.

Although he had some plans, he didn't have time to walk with them.

Naturally, it is easier to open the door.

After looking at the faint blue passage, Lei Qianqian walked in without saying anything.

In the eyes of people of his level, the art of traveling through earth veins is mediocre.

If Ying is willing, he can directly split the channels of the earth's veins without any skills at all.

……

outlying islands,

A few people in strange clothes walked on the street and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Of course, the main reason is that one of them is too eye-catching.

As an Inazuma person, there is probably no one who doesn’t know General Raiden.

It is completely different from the people of Mondstadt and Liyue. The people of Liyue and Mondstadt do not know their gods.

Wendy can sing and sing in Fengshen Square, Zhongli can listen to books on the streets of Liyue,

As for Lei Movie, it has already attracted everyone's attention as soon as it appeared on the streets of the outlying islands.

"General!"

"It's the General."

"The General is coming to our place!"

Not only the ordinary Daowe people, but also some foreigners who were locked up in Daowe under the national lockdown order could not help but look at General Raiden from a distance.

Not long after, a group of shogunate colleagues affiliated with the shogunate rushed to the crowd.

"General, Lord Palace Secretary."

The shogunate soldiers bowed to the two men.

"No need to be polite, we are here just to take a look, you don't have to follow." Ying said calmly.

"This..." The shogun hesitated for a moment, but in the end, his loyalty to the general outweighed the order of the Kanjo Bugyo. "Yes, then I will lead people to guard the intersection. If the general needs me, I can rush over at any time."

Lei Movie nodded and let them go.

But Wang Daoyi smiled on the side.

"What are you laughing at?" Ying was a little strange.

"Oh, this outlying island is a territory that has been determined and enforced. When the general comes, only one Tongxin comes with a group of shogunate soldiers. Don't you think it's a bit disrespectful?"

"Hey, but when we were with Kage in Inazuma Castle before, no one came out. There were not even shogunate soldiers to guard!" Paimeng scratched his head, a little confused by Wang Daoyi's words.

"Ha, Daozuma City is the territory of Tianling. When you go to the streets, I'm afraid Kujo Sora is following you secretly." Wang Daoyi sneered, and General Thunder and Lightning appeared on the streets of Daozuma City. If Kujo Sora He would never believe it if there was no movement.

However, compared to those who adhere to the determination, Kujo Sanra must be more cautious and will only protect in secret instead of sending a group of soldiers to disturb them.

"That's right!" Little Paimon tilted his head, "Then why do people who follow the rules do this?"

She didn't understand why Kandingfeng sent a team here, but the person in charge was just a co-worker. This was so rude.

"Because of the power struggle!" Lei Movie suddenly interjected, "The battle between the rulers and the subordinate families made them behave like this and lost etiquette."

"Eh~?" Paimeng exclaimed in surprise. She was talking to Wang Daoyi quietly and didn't expect Ying to speak suddenly.

"Haha, are you surprised?" Lei Qianqian chuckled, "Although I live high in the castle tower and don't like this kind of thing, it doesn't mean that I don't know the struggle between followers, rights, and wealth. They are all struggles. reasons."

Paimeng was a little puzzled: "Then Ying, you..."

"Why didn't I stop it, right?" Lei Dianying waved his hand and looked at Paimon with a smile in his eyes.

"Yes, yes, if you stop them, they won't dare to do that." Paimon nodded vigorously. In her opinion, Ying was fully capable of stopping everything from happening.

Facing Paimon's question, Ying smiled and explained, "Because it's not necessary. What I need are three families who can manage Inazuma for me. If they can't even beat their subordinates, it's better to change them as soon as possible."

On the side, Ying heard Lei Dianying's explanation and suddenly remembered something: "Hey! But last time we..."

Ying knew what Ying was talking about, and she shook her head gently:

"Last time, it was because the little guy from the Kujo family still had the courage to fight, but the Takagi family didn't. If it was the Takagi family who had the courage to draw their swords against me, then I would have given them a chance."

"So that's how it is?" Paimon was shocked. She couldn't understand the political games and samurai spirit involved.

"Ha, let's not talk about this anymore. Let them solve their own problems. Let's go shopping." Wang Daoyi interrupted the topic and looked at Lei Dianying. "I guess the general would also like to know what everyone thinks of Inazuma nowadays!"

Lei Dianying nodded: "Then go and ask. I haven't listened to the voices of ordinary people for a long time."

Now, the three magistrates assist the general Raiden in managing Inazuma. The general hears and sees everything from the three magistrates.

Although General Raiden still looked down upon Inazuma, no major event escaped her eyes.

But beneath these major events, there are also countless voices of ordinary people, and these voices are what Lei Movies wants to hear today.

"Then just ask one by one." Wang Daoyi shrugged and pointed to the shops on both sides of the street.

As the largest port town in Inazuma, the shops on the outlying island should have been very bustling and prosperous, but now they seem a bit quiet.

"Do we have to ask every family? Then when can we eat?" Paimon seemed a little reluctant, and then she turned her head and immediately thought of someone, "Oh, right, we can go ask Kurisu, he is the president of the International Chamber of Commerce, if there is anything, it will definitely be more convenient to ask him!"

I have to say, when it comes to eating, Paimon's little brain works very quickly.

"Kurisu?" Ying gave a puzzled look. It was obvious that she, who was high up in the castle tower, had never heard of this name.

"Kurisu is also our friend. Ying and I met him when we first came to Inazuma!" Paimon said in the air.

Ying also nodded: "He is the president of the International Chamber of Commerce. Merchants on the outlying islands trust him very much, so if you ask him for information, you may get some good results."

"In that case, let's go find this person." Ying nodded and agreed to Paimeng's suggestion.

Wang Daoyi shrugged. He had no problem anyway. The problem of the outlying island was there, and it would be the same no matter who he asked.

The group walked along the street and came to the International Chamber of Commerce area located in the central area of ​​the Outlying Island Commercial Street.

Then a waiter carefully received everyone: "General, and everyone, I am a waiter from the International Chamber of Commerce. You can just call me Xixi. May I ask what can I do for you?"

The waitress looked at Lei Dianying with a flicker in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was uneasy.

"A Liyue person?" Wang Daoyi took a look at the other person's attire and found that he looked like a Liyue person, not a native of Inazuma.

“Ah? Eh, are you also from Liyue?” Xixi looked at Wang Daoyi with a hint of surprise in her eyes. “Yes, I am from Liyue, employed by Mr. Kulixu, and currently working as a receptionist for the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce.”

The other party was from Liyue, and Wang Daoyi's expression eased a little.

"I am also from Liyue. I came to Inazuma... to do some business." Wang Daoyi nodded at the other party with a slight smile on his face, and comforted the girl: "Please don't be nervous. The general wants to know the situation on the island, so he wants to meet Kurisu. Please help us inform him."

"Oh, okay, okay. General, please come in and sit for a while. I'll go call Mr. Kurisu over." Xixi quickly extended her hand and invited everyone to come in first.

Lei Dianying nodded, stepped into the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce, and asked, "Will it not disturb your work?"

He was not used to communicating with the lower class people, so he was just asking politely.

Xixi was startled by the general's question, and then waved her hands: "Ah? No, no, for now... there is no work."

The establishment of the International Chamber of Commerce was mainly to help foreign merchants communicate with the shogunate.

But now, because of the existence of the lockdown order, those businessmen are trapped on the outlying islands, some are bankrupt, some are lonely, and the workload of the International Chamber of Commerce has been greatly reduced.

Under Xixi's reception, everyone came to the International Chamber of Commerce. Xixi asked someone to make tea for everyone, then begged for mercy and went to the back, saying that she was going to call Kurisu.

After a while

A middle-aged man dressed in Fontaine clothing came hurriedly from behind.

"General, I'm really sorry that I didn't greet you in time. It was so rude." The middle-aged man hurriedly ran to Lei Dianying and bowed.

Lei Dianying waved his hand: "It's okay, I came here just for fun."

"Kurisu, long time no see!" Paimon also waved to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man then shifted his gaze away from Lei Dianying and looked at other people.

"Oh, it's the Traveler and Paimon. Ah, the Palace Master is here too, and this one..." Kurisu turned his gaze to Wang Daoyi. He knew everyone else except Wang Daoyi.

In response to Kurisu's questioning look, Wang Daoyi waved his hand and said, "It's not important, it's not important. I'm just an unknown person and it's not worth mentioning. What's important is that the general has something to ask you."

After hearing what Wang Daoyi said,

Kurisu's expression tensed, not because he had done anything wrong, but simply because he was a little afraid of General Raiden.

Although he was a well-known figure on the outlying islands and often helped foreign merchants communicate with the shogunate, he still felt a little guilty when facing General Raiden.

This is the huge gap in status that brings about a sense of unease.

"Don't be afraid, I just want to ask some questions about the outlying island." Seeing Kurisu's uneasiness, Lei Diandian spoke to comfort him.

Although the other party was not from Inazuma, he had been operating in Inazuma's land for so long and even changed his name to Inazuma, so he could be considered half of his people. Therefore, Ying's tone towards Kurisu could be considered gentle.

Feeling the gentleness in Lei Yingying's tone, Jiulixu calmed down a little and nodded seriously: "General, please ask me, I will tell you everything I know."

[Lei asked about the business situation, residents' income, food and clothing conditions of the outlying islands, and a series of other questions, and Jiulixu gave detailed answers.]

[According to Kurisu, under the isolation order, the economic situation of the outlying islands has reached the brink of collapse.]

"So, has it become this serious?"

Lei Dianying frowned. Although she knew that the lockdown had a negative impact on Inazuma, she had never thought that it had become so serious that the economy was on the verge of collapse.

If it was the previous General Lei Dian, he might have just reprimanded the governor, but now Lei Dian felt a little guilty.

He knew that all these were the negative consequences caused by his walking on the wrong path.
