Genshin Impact: Another Traveler of Teyvat

His body has only grown a little bit, just reaching the standard of 12 meters. He resented it, but could only comfort himself that he was already very tall at less than years old. Half of his hair had been dyed by the elements, turning it into a dark green. His muscles were also stronger. He wore a similar outfit to Bennett, with short-sleeved shirts and shorts.

I have tried to wear something that matches the Liyue style, but once I pick up the sword and do some exercises, the clothes will be ruined. I have no choice but to change into this cool outfit.

There is a ring hanging on his chest, which is a space ring made by Ping's grandmother. It can not only store things, but also has the function of viewing the outside world. Unfortunately, there is no bird butler inside.

He also made some progress in the Wood Release Technique. The explosive growth of the elemental power in his body allowed Lin Zixuan to research many new ways to play the Wood Release Technique. This time, he was going to experiment with the newly researched large-scale Wood Release Technique.

Since Uncle Fu was going to stay in Mingyun Town and Xuanyuan Trading Company, he also had a servant named Aji in his house. He signed the contract under the witness of the statue of Emperor Yanwang. He is still alive and well, so he should be credible. He went to find the statue of Emperor Zhongli who had injected divine power into it.

The last servant was already in the prison of the Qianyan Army. I don't know if he is still alive. His mouth was full of rocks for three months. He couldn't speak and could only be fed with liquid food and water to keep himself alive.

It takes a lot of courage to violate the contract signed under the witness of this powerful statue.

This is my first time leaving Liyue Harbor. Previously, I used the anchor point to teleport directly to Mingyun Town and never stayed outside. I was a little nervous. What is the world outside like?

Early the next morning.

There are relatively few horses in Liyue, so carriages are basically rented from carriage shops. The carriage shops will arrange special grooms, who are basically retired Qianyan soldiers, and have a certain level of combat power to avoid accidents.

For example: the horse ate the wrong food, and was robbed by the treasure-stealing group. However, when going to Mondstadt, you should take the main road, and the Thousand Rock Army will patrol frequently. The probability of running into the treasure-stealing group is also relatively small.

He ordered the servants and guards to load a bunch of Liyue specialties onto the carriage, which made old Nova very happy. He patted Lin Zixuan on the shoulder and recognized this grandson-in-law (self-proclaimed). As long as the old man is happy...

After leaving the gate of Liyue, the road was uphill. The road condition was very bad, with wheel marks everywhere. The carriage was swaying and climbing the slope, moving very slowly.

It was not until the evening that we climbed to the middle of the mountain. There were cliffs on both sides and three inns on the mountainside. I chose one that looked better and checked in.

I walked out of the inn and found a seat in the pavilion outside the inn. This was a great spot. I could see the panoramic view of Liyue from a distance. I took out my camera to take some pictures.

There will be big changes in Liyue Harbor soon. Lin Zixuan is filled with anxiety. Are the changes he brings good or bad?

Looking at these three inns, the flow of people is very average. Most of them are using horse-drawn carriages to carry 5 or 6 barrels of goods for business. With such a small amount of goods, can it really meet the needs of the entire country of Liyue?

It is not easy to climb this mountain, let alone pull the goods up. The mountain is high, the road conditions are poor, and there is little animal power. I really want this old man Zhongli to move this mountain that is blocking the entrance of Liyue Port. This mountain really restricts the land transportation of Liyue Port.

After leaving the Liyue Harbor archway, the road is mostly made of bumpy stone slabs. When you reach the middle of the mountain, the broken stone slabs disappear.

The middle and sides of the road were overgrown with weeds, and only where the wheels passed was a dirt road. This was actually the main road of Liyue. This kind of road can only be seen in the mountains of Blue Star during the Qingming Festival.

Liyue's development of sea transportation without land transportation is like a broken leg. There are hundreds of villages of all sizes in the north of Liyue Harbor, most of which are inland and not close to the sea. Basically, they rely on the mountains and the water for their livelihood. The transportation of materials is difficult, and there are really few wealthy villages.

Judging from the information we have learned during this period, the rampant treasure-stealing groups are actually largely due to the fact that many villages are too poor, and not just because of these underground treasure chests.

"Boy, what are you thinking about sitting here?" Old Man Nova walked over.

"Master, if there is a tool that allows ordinary people to travel from Mondstadt to Liyue in just 2 or 3 days, do you think it is a good thing or a bad thing?"

"Of course it's a good thing!"

"But this tool will cause a large number of shipping companies to go bankrupt, more people will be unemployed, and adventurers will have fewer escort missions. Even shipping will be affected."

"Just stick to the justice in your heart. If you can really do that, there is no need to worry too much. Just like me, time will get old. It is normal for old things to be replaced by new things."

Looking at the dilapidated road, Lin Zixuan thought about the master's words again. The master must have meant for me to move forward bravely! "Then the master will have to live for another ten years! Come and experience this new world."

After a week of carriage life, Lin Zixuan felt that his body was about to be shaken apart. After entering Guiliyuan, a place with stable terrain, the road became slightly smoother.

A huge tree can be seen in the distance. That should be Wangshu Inn.

These special landmarks and traffic arteries often form a market over time. When you get closer, you will find that it has developed into a town.

A large number of carriage transfers are here. It is completely different from the simplified version of the painting style in the game. There are more than a dozen inns of all sizes under the tree. There are hawking sounds everywhere, and the liveliness is no less than that of the Red Mansion in Feiyunpo.

Since we are here, we must stay at Wangshu Inn. This elevator-like device in Wangshu Inn is really interesting. Lin Zixuan observed it carefully and found some runes engraved on the bottom of the lifting device. It is driven by fairy runes! It will automatically go up and down at a fixed time.

There was a big man at the elevator entrance directing people to get on the elevator to avoid accidents. This kind of creativity is really admirable.

But where can I learn the knowledge about immortal talismans?

Emperor, although Granny Ping is a little easier to talk to after getting to know each other, Emperor just drinks tea every day. If you ask him to teach you, he will probably ignore you. The statue with Emperor's power that I begged for a long time last time already owes you a big favor.

It was the same with Granny Ping. She helped me get a space ring, but she didn't even return the favor. I've never seen the other True Lords. As for the Xiao on the roof, ask him? Only he has this kind of oppressive power, but this immortal is not the type to talk to.

I walked up to the roof and saw the Xiao in green ancient costume lying on a branch basking in the sun. Just as I was about to speak, he disappeared in an instant. Lin Zixuan scratched his head. What's going on? He doesn't want to talk to me! Is it because I didn't feed him the almond tofu?

It seems that if I want to learn the immortal talisman, I have to find other ways.

After leaving Wangshu Inn, we drove for another week and entered the rugged mountain road again. After half a day of shaky driving, we finally arrived at our destination. It took a total of 17 days to reach the Shimen border.

Old man Nova got off the carriage and pounded his waist: "I'm old, and even riding in a carriage is tiring." Lin Zixuan complained: "It's still ten days before we return to Mond City."

The old man grabbed the big sword with its scabbard and hit Lin Zixuan: "You're itching, aren't you?" After a while of playing around, Lin Zixuan began to observe this place.

The Shimen border is not like in the game, where there is nothing. There are city walls and a large number of Qianyan troops stationed here. Ordinary pedestrians can be released after registration, but merchants with large quantities of goods need to check whether they have tax payment certificates.

After all, we still have to check whether there are fugitives or tax evaders, so we can't let people cross the border so easily. There are only a few people who don't take the normal route like tourists and climb mountains to cross the border.

After unloading the goods, they boarded Mond's carriage, said goodbye to old man Nova, and promised to visit him in Mond in the next few years.

During this short trip, apart from opening two treasure chests on the road, it seems that I didn't do anything and nothing happened on the road.

It is really not easy for people without God's Eye to travel. One trip can take a whole month. How many thirty days can an ordinary person have in his life?

Chapter 17 Crazy Iron Ingot

Qunyu Pavilion.

Tianquanxing Ningguang sat by the window, listening to the report of the three secretaries. She felt a little uneasy and had a feeling that something was going to happen.

"Is Xuanyuan Trading Company taking any action at the moment?"

Bai Wen: "To reply Lord Ningguang, no. There are only a few loyal guards and an ordinary servant in Lin Zixuan's villa. It is impossible to place more people in.

The last servant we planted there was punished with rock-eating. He lasted three months and is now too weak to be a human anymore. He will probably die in the next few days. No one can withstand this kind of punishment for half a year."

Bai Xiao: "Yes, this Lin Zixuan is too cruel, I don't know where he got the statue with the power of the Rock King.

If you break the contract with the Rock King, you will be punished by eating rocks for half a year. Now even everyone in Xuanyuan Trading Company has signed a new contract, and their internal intelligence cannot be obtained. "

Bai Shi: "Yes, yes, the spies I sent to Mingyun Town could not send back any information. They also witnessed the great power of the Emperor, and when they came back from their breaks, they refused to say a word. They just said four words: 'Too terrible'.

The treasure-stealing group we contacted went to that place and never came out again. Mingyun Town is now surrounded by a circle of special trees, and those trees have self-regulating vines. Once you get close, hundreds of vines will be tied up, and no one can sneak in."

Ningguang also felt a bit of a headache after hearing these reports. Mingyun Town was completely closed, and it was impossible to find out what was going on inside. Sure enough, nothing good would happen if it was related to the immortals and the emperor.

"Continue to investigate, and be sure to send us new information about Xuanyuan Trading Company as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Lord Ningguang!"

......

Lin Zixuan arrived at Mingyun Town through the teleportation anchor point.

At the entrance square, a security booth like the one in Liyue Harbor was set up to persuade the God's Eye owners who were teleported in to leave. After all, this was already a private territory, and the Thousand Rock Army had to leave.

I have been developing the Wood Release Technique for half a year, and together with Uncle Fu, I have used the rock elemental power to build a solid Mingyun Town. I have cleared out a lot of hillbillies and treasure-stealing groups. Although it only covers a small area at present, the scope will gradually expand in the future.

There are newly developed self-trapping trees growing all around the town, and there are also self-trapping trumpet trees for air defense inside, which can shoot fruits, both to the air and to the ground. Although the range and damage are not high, they can still serve as a deterrent if there are enough of them.

After greeting the guards around him, he entered the town. Rows of wooden houses were located in the town, which were built by Lin Zixuan using the newly developed ten-room and one-living-room technique.

The one mining in the distance was the Ruins Guardian Mining Machine I had made. It could only be used for three hours, and then had to stop for six hours to wait for automatic recharging.

The head was equipped with a seat and converted to manual control. The hands were two buckets. After the legs were reinforced, it could transport nearly 1 ton of ore at a time. However, because most of it was made of wood, it was easy to break, and it often needed to be maintained using the Wood Release Technique.

There are also three shabby versions of iron-making blast furnaces. Although they look a bit worse, the iron they produce is still of guaranteed quality.

There is also a newly built blast furnace next to it. It looks less shabby. It uses the newly discovered alloy steel by the blacksmiths and uses the 128 cubic meter blast furnace design of a small steel plant. Its annual production capacity is estimated to be close to 100 million tons.

After all, it is just a test model to verify the feasibility of the new material, and larger cubic blast furnaces will be built in the future.

I found Uncle Fu counting the accounts in the largest house.

"Master, are you here? There are 17 ruins guard mining machines that have problems. We will have to use Wood Release Technique to repair them later."

"Well, you must be crazy about making money. You asked me to do maintenance as soon as I got here."

"Look at this warehouse full of iron ingots, they are full of money! The blacksmiths have already designed a larger blast furnace, and the output will definitely be higher by then." Lin Zixuan looked at Uncle Fu, whose eyes had turned into Mora's, with a helpless look on his face.

Recalling four months ago, the blacksmiths manually rubbed out the first blast furnace unit No. 1 according to Lin Zixuan's drawings. At that time, no one knew that this thing was used to smelt iron. When the molten iron came out, the blacksmiths and the workers watching were almost crazy.

After the molten iron cooled, the blacksmiths checked it and found that the quality of the iron was comparable to that of steel that had been forged hundreds of times. Several old blacksmiths knelt down and cried: There is no way to make a living in the future!

"Have the new alloy steel formulas discovered during this period been recorded?"

"Master, it has been recorded. Each type of steel is tested three times. Only when the same quality steel is obtained will it be registered."

"Did you get any results with that elastic steel?"

"Master, that kind of steel is truly amazing. It can return to its original state after being bent, and it can bounce back when pressed down."

"The secret formula of this steel is listed as the most important information. These new alloys are the foundation of our future, so we can't lose them."

Lin Zixuan walked back and forth in the room, then sat down again, covering his forehead.

"Uncle Fu, if I were to do something that would harm Liyue, would you support me?"

"Master, I have also come to understand that with the emergence of this technology, Liyue will see great changes. It would be a good idea to implement the supply cut we talked about last time before the Emperor leaves."

"Uncle Fu, I'm talking about something else. The impact of this matter is extremely terrifying. Liyue may not be able to recover for more than ten years."

"Master, what do you want?"

"Uncle Fu, have you noticed that the amount of Mora we use is getting bigger and bigger? A bowl of ordinary noodles costs 1000 Mora, and a piece of clothing costs 10000 Mora. In a few years, maybe I will need to spend 1 Mora just to eat a bowl of noodles."

"Indeed, when I was a kid, a bowl of noodles only cost 100 Mora. Over the past few decades, the price has almost increased tenfold."

"This is Liyue's problem! The Seven Stars did not properly regulate Liyue's market economy. This caused prices to rise too fast and Mora to depreciate.

There are countless unscrupulous merchants in Liyue who hoard goods and raise prices. This situation has caused Mora's purchasing power to decline step by step.

The ultimate consequence is that the money ordinary people earn in a month may not even be enough to afford a bowl of noodles.

The wages of our group who left their hometowns are only 30 Mora a month. How much is the salary for the same job in Liyue Harbor? 20 or even less.

These workers have 20 yuan, and they have to spend 1 yuan to buy ordinary clothes. How do you think the ordinary people in Liyue Port live?"

Uncle Fu thought about it and realized that he had followed the master for decades and had never thought about this kind of problem.

"I will implement a hyperinflation, also known as the Liyue Port Bubble Plan. I will plunder 50% of Liyue Port's wealth in one fell swoop."

"Master, you can't do this! Liyue will collapse."

"Who are the ones who are going bankrupt? The profiteers who hoarded goods and raised prices. The people who used contracts to speculate in futures. They have no constraints.

The Seven Stars were often easily deceived by the false economic prosperity created by such speculative exchanges, and could not detect the speculative activities hidden behind them. They did not react until the problems accumulated to a very serious level. Even Ningguang, the Tianquan Star, often engaged in such speculative transactions.

Now that Geodium Emperor is still here, Liyue's basic foundation is still very solid. If we wait until Geodium Emperor leaves and are attacked by other countries like this, it will be too late.

I will not swallow these assets myself. The road from Mingyun Town to Liyue and Mondstadt should also be turned into a four-lane cement road. Without this fund, we have no money to build this road. Do you think Qixing and the General Affairs Department will pay for the road construction?

Just look at these seven big businessmen. Ningguang went to spend a lot of money to make toys, Keqing is a child of a big family, although she is a pre-determined seven star, she has no knowledge at all, and the remaining few people are all looking at their own bowls. They are careful about Liyue's finances, while they are making a lot of money.

Where did Liyue's wealth go?"

"Liyue's wealth?"

Uncle Fu thought about it and realized that in the decades since he followed the master, Liyue Harbor seemed to have not changed at all.

The building has not been moved much.

The wharf was not expanded.

The road is still a muddy and grassy road.

There was no change in the equipment of the Qianyan Army.

Apart from the construction of a few villa areas, prices have increased tenfold.

So where did the wealth accumulated over the past few decades go?

"Master, do we have to do this?"

"Don't you have money to build roads?"

"I can't afford to repair it."

"Will the Liyue Seven Stars arrange for road repairs?"

"probably not."

"If we don't build the road, we won't be able to transport our goods out. We can't always rely on my space ring, right?"

Lin Zixuan thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Fu, go to the Kingdom of Zhidong! Find a few people to take the blame and give them wealth and glory."

Liyue Harbor.
