"As you can see, this is the rescuer I brought to you - the decoration team under the Interstellar Peace Company. These planetary decoration companies were personally selected by Ester, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed.
With their help, you should be able to restore Yalilo-VI to normal within thirty years."
"In fact, it's mainly because it's difficult to clean up the rift."
As Esta flipped through the documents in her hand, she added:
"It's very simple to simply rebuild the ecological environment, but there aren't many decoration companies that deal with dangerous star core-associated phenomena like the Rift. Moreover, the cold wave of Yalilo-VI is connected to the Rift, which is extremely complex and covers a large area. The staff have to investigate and study the specific data while carrying out the work, so it will take a lot of extra time."
“This is great news for us.”
Bronya let out a long sigh, then clenched her fists and placed them on her chest, looking at Estelle and Lynn seriously:
"Then... as a 'leader', I must also make an equal commitment."
"We're all family, why are you still saying that? Just charge the expenses to me."
Bronya instinctively wanted to refute Lynn and say "Who is your family?", but she just opened her mouth and didn't say it. Instead, she looked at Lynn and Ester and continued talking.
Lin En waved his hand indifferently and turned to look at Estelle:
"It won't cost much anyway, right, Estelle."
"It really doesn't cost much, let me take a look..."
Esta opened her phone and took a look. She said a frightening number in a nonchalant tone:
"It's just over 5 billion credit points."
Lin En: "Mr. Duo?"
Originally, Lin En thought that it would not cost much after hearing Estelle's calm words. However, he once again underestimated the financial resources of this super rich woman. More than 5 billion credit points were just a small amount of money for Estelle, but it was an astronomical figure for him.
Lin En made a rough estimate. Based on his annual salary of barely one million credit points at the Ten Kings Division, he would have to work for more than five thousand years, which means he would have to work from now until the year 13100 of the Star Calendar. This would be enough time for a civilization to develop from a slave society to the interstellar age.
Without hesitation, Lin En took out his cell phone and called Silver Wolf:
"Hey, how about we discuss something? Can you pretend to be caught by me, and then escape from prison after I get the bounty? We'll split the money 70% and 30%."
Silver Wolf: "Why is it only 70%? I'm acting with you, and then I get caught in the company prison and escape on my own, and you don't do anything, so I still have to give you 30%? Are you seriously ill?"
Lin En: "70% is mine. If you think it's too little, we can come twice more. If it doesn't work, you can persuade Ka... Why did you die so soon?"
Lin En put down his phone helplessly and sighed, then turned to look at Estelle:
"Miss, do you think I can pay this money with my body?"
"Think beautifully!"
Esta stuck out her cute little tongue and gave Lin En a cold look:
"Besides, I'm not a merchant, so you don't have to come to me if you want compensation in return... I'll just pay you this little bit of money first, and you can pay me back when you have some spare money.
Or maybe if you make me happy, I might forget about this little money~"
As she spoke, Esta had already picked up her phone and completed the payment, which moved Lynn to tears.
Where can I find such a good rich woman? I really want to be kept by Miss Ester...
Chapter 4: Esta: I understand, Amber King is obsessed with black stockings! k
"Lynn, is this really okay?"
Bronya stared at Lynn, her voice tinged with concern.
"Although I appreciate your kindness, this is our Beloberg's business after all. I don't want to add any more burden to you because of us - you have already paid enough for Beloberg."
"Duck, you treat me as an outsider, right?"
Lin En looked unhappy. "Look, I've been called the hero who saved Beloberg, so I must help to the end."
At this point, Lin En suddenly grinned, put on a serious expression and said seriously:
"We can't ignore tomorrow's Belloberg - a hero can't run away from the battlefield!"
"Pfft, are you guys role playing something here?"
Lin En's sudden immersion in the role made Estelle unable to help but cover her mouth and chuckle, while Lin En continued to comfort Bronya and said:
"Don't worry, I'm much more capable than you think. It's not difficult to earn 5 billion credit points if I really want to... Besides, even if I really can't afford the renovation, I still have a plan B - I have an idle primitive planet, and you can just move there when the time comes. The environment is definitely much better than Yalilo-VI."
"Idle planet..."
Bronya widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Lynn in disbelief.
She knew from Xier that Lin En did not seem to be an ordinary person, but it was still a bit too outrageous for him to have an idle planet in his hands. It was completely beyond her imagination.
Compared to the shocked Bronya, Esta's expression was much calmer. She smiled and said as if she was just chatting:
"It's the planet you named Teyvat, right? I've heard of it~"
"Hey, how do you know?"
This time it was Lin En's turn to be surprised. Teyvat was the dark planet where he and Tingyun were trapped. He basically never told anyone else about this. It was indeed a bit unexpected for Estelle to know the existence of this planet.
In the face of Lin En's somewhat puzzled look, Esta explained: "Didn't you ask me to help you find a decoration company? One of the companies that came this time is the company that will help you reshape the ecology of Teyvat. Their representative also showed me the scenery map of Teyvat. It feels quite interesting. You can go and have fun when you have time."
"That's great. I haven't been back for a while."
Lin En nodded: "Let me know when you want to go some other day, so that I can be your good host. The last time you came to Xianzhou to see me was a bit too hasty, and I was not able to entertain you properly."
Estelle: "Hey, then it's a deal~"
Bronya: "..."
For some reason, watching Lynn and Ester chatting happily in front of her, Bronya actually felt a subtle sense of habit, as if Lynn and Seele were usually playing around in front of her, and she wanted to interrupt but couldn't bring herself to do so, so she could only sulk and turn around to go back to work.
There are clearly three people talking here, why do I feel so redundant?
Never mind, I'm used to it. Just smile at this time.
Just as Bronya was facing life with a smile, Lynn looked at the gradually darkening sky and said to Bronya:
"It's getting late, I won't disturb you from working, I have to go pick up Estelle.
They have come all the way to help me, so I can't lose my manners."
"By the way, let the staff go and conduct an actual inspection first."
Esta echoed, "Yalilo-VI doesn't even have a starport, so we have to ask the renovation team to build a temporary starport first, otherwise it will be difficult to carry out follow-up work.
I will arrange for someone to meet with you, Miss Bronya, for the specific handover. I am just here to have fun, not the one who is really in charge."
"Okay, Miss Estelle and other distinguished guests are always welcome at Klipperburg."
Although Lynn said that there was no need to be too formal, Bronya's words and manners were still quite formal. Lynn didn't know what to say anymore, so he just disappeared from the spot in a flash.
Although Yalilo-VI does not have a starport, in fact, most of the starships in the fleet brought by Esta this time can land directly on the surface of the planet. They just need to find an open plain.
"Wow, it's really icy and snowy."
On the snowy field of the ancient battlefield, Esta was the first to walk out of the opened hatch of the landed Imperial-class Star Destroyer. She greeted Lin En while looking at this ice and snow world with interest.
I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t seen Estelle for a while, or maybe it’s because Estelle just helped pay the bill, which made Lin En feel close to this rich lady when he saw her again. He smiled and explained:
"After all, this place has experienced a seven hundred year cold wave, so it will be hard to recover in a short time."
To be honest, at first he was thinking of using the Meteorite Sword to perform the Yalilo Middle-Split Sword to help thaw this ice planet, but in the end he found that his control over the power did not seem to be so precise. If he accidentally pierced the earth's crust, it would be a serious sin, so in the end he entrusted Ester to find these moving companies.
"You're talking about ice and snow, but you're wearing a skirt with bare legs. Aren't you cold?"
Lynn couldn't help but complain when she found out that Ester was still wearing a long dress.
"It's not cold." Estelle pulled at the hem of her long skirt and introduced:
"These custom-made clothes all have a built-in adaptive system for the entire environment. They protect against cold, sun, heat, water, bullets, radiation, poison gas, and bombing... In short, they protect against everything you need to protect against, so you won't feel cold at all."
Well, a young lady is a young lady, even one piece of clothing has so many lines on it.
Lynn thought.
The reason why San Yueqi and the others can wear skirts in the snow is because of the blessing of fate, while Ester relies directly on the magical system built into her clothes, and the Beloberg people can only rely on wearing black silk to keep warm.
After sighing, Lin En took out the gift he had prepared long ago.
"Anyway, it's really inappropriate to run bare-legged in the ice and snow. We Xianzhou people believe in adapting to local customs. The Yalilo specialty I prepared for you can be used just at this time."
"Oh, really? Let me see what the specialty is."
Under Esta's expectant eyes, Lin En opened the beautifully wrapped amber gift box in his hand.
But before Esta could get closer to see what was in the amber gift box, a purple-gold shadow suddenly rushed out from her side and circled around Lin En, grunting.
"Oh my god, what a beast!"
"Zhangzhang, wait for me!"
Lin En was startled by the mysterious creature that suddenly rushed out. He looked closely and found that it was a dimensional piggy bank with a strange appearance. At this time, a female voice that was so familiar that it was almost engraved in his DNA came into Lin En's ears, making him tremble all over and look up in disbelief:
"Fuck, Mom—No, who are you?"
Realizing that he had recognized the wrong person, Lin En looked at the white-haired girl in confusion. Her voice was very similar to Hua's mother's, but she was much younger.
"Lynn, this is Topa, the company's representative for this trip. She had something to do in Yalilo, so she came along with me."
Asta introduced it very considerately, and Topa quickly picked up the excited Zhangzhang from the ground and nodded to Lin En:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin En. Zhang Zhang gets very excited when he encounters a valuable treasure. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."
Knowing that Lin En was Ester's good friend and a destiny walker recognized by the Amber King, Topa's attitude was quite friendly. However, Lin En frowned.
The reason is simple, it's just that the voice of this girl named Topa is so similar to her mother Hua's, even though she is much younger and livelier than Hua.
His first reaction when he heard Topa's voice was that Hua's mother came to check on him. After realizing that the voice was too lively, his second reaction was that it was the damn treasure hunter... No, it should be the great lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge who came to run the Star Iron.
But when Lin En really saw Topa's appearance, especially her majestic chest that almost made the buttons fly off, Lin En was sure that he was overthinking.
Ah, having breasts, it seems like it really has nothing to do with Hua’s mother.
After confirming this, Lin En finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The Dimensional Piggy Bank in Topa's arms was still flapping its ears excitedly, trying to break free from Topa's arms and run to Lin's feet, which made Topa very curious:
"This is the first time I see Zhang Zhang so excited. It seems that Miss Ester has received a very precious gift."
"Hey, really? Then let me look forward to it!"
Esta happily came close to Lin En, and the latter opened the amber gift box in his hand again, presenting the black stockings lying quietly inside to Esta and Topa, which surprised both of them.
"Hey, stockings?"
"How is it possible? What kind of stockings can make Zhang Zhang so excited?"
Topa patted Zhangzhang's little head, thinking that his pet might have something wrong with his brain.
Lin En explained seriously, his tone was quite serious:
"I swear by the star god I believe in, this is not an ordinary pair of stockings - this is a concentrated black stocking that protects life. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rare item blessed by the Amber King!"
"Amber King, stockings...these two words can't be connected in any way, right?"
Esta took the black silk in her hand, and while feeling the soft texture of the black silk carefully, she couldn't help but complain.
Lin En: "Don't worry about how it came from. I just want to ask if the power of preserving destiny is real!"
Although it was completely incomprehensible why the Amber King would bless a pair of stockings, as Lynn said, as a senior executive of the Interstellar Peace Company, Ester could indeed sense an extremely pure power of preservation from this pair of black stockings, which was even purer and more powerful than the many preservation artifacts collected in the company headquarters in Pierpoint.
Moreover, Lin En swore an oath by the star god he believed in. Generally speaking, no destiny walker would joke about such things.
Could it be that Lord Amber King actually likes black stockings?
This absurd thought suddenly occurred to Esta.
Thinking carefully, she also remembered that Lin En told her that most girls in Beloberg wore black stockings. The Great Guardian even passed down the black stockings from generation to generation as part of the uniform, just like their inheritance of the will of protection... Wait a minute, could it be that the Great Guardian wore black stockings because they knew that the Amber King liked it, and was this also a kind of practice to strengthen the power of protection?
As Lin and Topa looked at her with some confusion, Ester suddenly realized what was going on and slammed her palm, saying loudly:
"It's decided. I'll call my grandmother right now and ask her to propose that all female employees of Interstellar Peace Company change their uniforms to black stockings!"
Lynn: "???"
Topa: "No, Miss Estelle! I'm not used to wearing that kind of thing."
"You have to wear it even if you're not used to it!"
Esta clenched the black silk in her hand and stared at Topa seriously: "This is also for the will of preservation!"
"Okay, I support that too!"
