Genshin Impact: Another Traveler of Teyvat

Looking at this Ningguang who is completely different from the one in the game, I felt a headache for a moment. What went wrong?

How could the mature, wise, superior and non-offensive Tianquanxing in the game be like this? Logically, she shouldn't fall into such a trap.

Looking at this face full of collagen, is it time?

This is Ningguang ten years ago. Although she has a lot of wealth, it is not as huge as when the traveler appears later. It is estimated that after ten years, she will have accumulated enough wealth to build at least three complete versions of the Jade Pavilion. After more than ten years of business polishing, Ningguang can show the style in the game.

Now, at the rising stage of her wealth accumulation, the wrong information made her make the wrong judgment. When she found out, it was too late to withdraw, causing her to go from a rich woman to a poor woman.

No wonder she came to me on her own initiative. She must have been desperate and on the verge of bankruptcy. If she couldn't pay back the money, not only would she lose her position in the Qun Yu Pavilion, but also in the Seven Stars.

Lin Zixuan thought about it. Although taking advantage of others' misfortune is not his style, this is an opportunity. Keqing is too young, and it takes time to be a tool. And this Ningguang is a very good tool. You can't blame me for taking over.

It's a sin to make such a beautiful woman cry like this. She might cry even more miserably later. I should comfort her.

"Ningguang, now that you know my future plans, as a Seven Star, you also understand the problems Liyue is facing at this stage, right? The Emperor is about to leave. If something like this happens after the Emperor leaves, what do you think Liyue will become?

This was just a rehearsal, simulating a business war strategy that other countries would adopt against Liyue after the Emperor left.

The atmosphere of speculation in Liyue is too strong.

It is both a good thing and a bad thing. At some point, it can promote the development of Liyue Harbor, but if it is not shackled, then the result shown this time is the future of Liyue Harbor.

There are so many people in Liyue Harbor who are learning from you. What did you rely on to rise from nothing to the position of Seven Stars?

According to the history of Liyue that I have investigated, with underdeveloped land and sea transportation, it is impossible to become one of the seven major merchants in Liyue Port.

Or, it is the wealth accumulated by ancestors from generation to generation.

Or, they rely on cutting corners to conduct business operations.

And you are the best at making profits through speculation. Relying on your keen sense of business, you succeeded! It only took a few years for you to accumulate wealth that surpassed many old families and reached the Seven Stars.

The people of Liyue Harbor have seen your success, causing this speculative trend to become more and more rampant.

The unscrupulous merchants in Liyue Harbor only need to reduce supply and drive up prices by hoarding goods in large quantities or monopolizing supply channels, thereby making huge profits and further raising the prices of various materials in Liyue.

Since it is so easy to make money while lying down, who would be willing to make money while standing?

Originally, this kind of top-quality iron ingot would cost at most 2000 Mora, but through the hype of speculative businessmen like you, it was successfully hyped up to 10 Mora, a full 50 times.

Am I selling it too high? At first, I only sold it for 2000 Mora. Then you guys went crazy and bought it for 10 Mora. Since you bought it at such a high price, I will just give it to you. I will give you whatever you want.

Now that the bubble has been burst, do you think it’s my problem or yours?”

Lin Zixuan poured himself a cup of tea and also made a cup for Ningguang. Looking at Ningguang who was still sobbing, he continued.

"It's normal for Liyue to have this kind of perception. How much money can you make from the real economy? It's better to make money faster by reselling. Just like the Mingyun Town I bought, it has been sold to more than a dozen businesses for nearly a hundred years without any profit.

According to the normal process of Liyue, a bunch of people were hired to use shovels to dig. How much could they dig in a day? After digging, they asked the blacksmith to hammer it. Then they calculated and realized that they had lost a lot.

Over time, the losses in the real economy increased, and the accumulated failure cases were countless. As a result, Liyue stopped developing the real economy and moved towards the unfettered buying and selling culture.

You are the biggest beneficiary. There is no law in Liyue's existing laws that can restrict you. This kind of absolute freedom without restrictions will often lead to destruction.

It’s really no one’s fault that we have come to the point where we have to sell the Qun Yu Pavilion.”

Ningguang couldn't stop crying after hearing this. "What about the people of Liyue? You took away so much wealth."

“There’s no need to use the people of Liyue to pressure me. Since I’ve done this, I’ve already prepared myself mentally. The people of Liyue will just have a hard time for a while.

There has not been a war in Liyue for nearly a thousand years. Compared with the war, this lesson is just a minor pain.

After this lesson, more and more people will realize that speculation is not desirable and will shift their focus to developing the real economy.

I will guide the people of Liyue in that direction. And you will serve me as a pawn."

After saying this, Lin Zixuan took out a statue of the Rock King from his space ring. The statue exuded such powerful divine power that it was impossible to look directly at it.

"Choose! Become my pawn and work for me, and you can still make a lot of money. Or walk out in anger, lose your Seven Star position, sell the Jade Pavilion, and be burdened with a huge debt. This debt is almost 40% of Liyue Harbor's wealth, plus the interest, it is not so easy to pay it back."

The three secretaries who were idle outside the door heard the crying getting louder inside the villa.

Bai Wen: "Who among you will go in and take a look?"

Bai Xiao: "Bai Shi, can you go in and take a look?"

Bai Shi: "No, no, how about the three of us go in together?"

The three of them pushed the issue for a while. They had followed Ningguang for so many years, but this was the first time they heard her cry. But none of them dared to disturb her.

"Lady Ningguang has hoarded a lot of iron ingots, but now they are worthless. I wonder what Lady Ningguang should do?"

"Lord Ningguang has borrowed a lot of money from Qixing and many merchants. We won't be sold out, right?"

"Do you think it was Lin Zixuan who did it?"

"very possible."

The three of them were talking to each other. "Squeak..." The door of the villa opened again. The three lazy people instantly turned into good girls.

"Let's go back to the Qun Yu Pavilion." Ningguang, with red eyes still around, said to the three people paddling.

Chapter 20 Li Yuechu Plan

Lin Zixuan had never expected Ningguang to appear. It turned out that she had known about his original plan a year ago.

But it was a blessing in disguise. I changed the plan midway, which led to the other party making a wrong judgment.

If she had not overheard the plan to stop paying the mortgage a year ago, it is hard to say whether she would have fallen into this trap. After all, in the business field, this is someone's professional field, and it is estimated that when the price increases by 30 times, they will run away and will not keep it.

Just like the stocks of Bluestar, some very credible channels get information that a certain stock will be manipulated by bigwigs and will rise by ten consecutive daily limits, so those who get the information buy it at a crazy high price. As a result, the stock has fallen to the floor, but people still think it will rise higher. This kind of method has deceived countless people.

The original plan was to get Keqing in a few years, but now we have a more capable tool. There will be almost no resistance to the implementation of future infrastructure plans.

But, this Ningguang is too crazy! She is really brave enough to borrow so much debt. Now I have to help her pay off her debts, and the funds have shrunk seriously. The four-lane road that was expected to be built to Mondstadt has now become only built to the Shimen border?

I have to let her work hard for me. This kind of road repair should be the responsibility of Liyue officials. Take the lead first. Many things need to be led by others. Let people see the benefits and then pursue them.

Come to the version of Qun Yu Pavilion from ten years ago.

It doesn't shake at all in the sea breeze, which is really amazing. The only building in front of me is the main building, and the small square is not as big as it was later. The whole view of Liyue is in front of me, it is indeed a good place.

Bai Wen: "Master Xuan, please come in!"

The interior is quite Liyue-style. Walking down the stairs to the second floor, Ningguang is sitting in front of the office. The board standing next to her is what will be called a "one-word-a-thousand-gold-board" in the future! It hasn't developed to the level that it was later rumored to be.

Ningguang looked up and glared at Lin Zixuan before continuing to review documents. Seeing that even Ningguang didn't say anything, the three lazy secretaries had to suppress their thoughts on stopping Lin Zixuan from strolling around.

After a stroll, I found that Ningguang had quite a lot of collections. Many of the items seemed to have a certain historical value. She also collected a lot of books. I flipped through them and found that most of them were biographies or materials.

When I walked up to her, I saw that her calligraphy was pretty good! With such high upbringing and vision, it was hard to believe that she was self-made.

"Don't disturb me while I'm working if you don't have to!" Ningguang said calmly.

He caused her so much suffering and even made her sell her body, so it's only natural for him to have this attitude.

"Well, I won't waste my words. I have a few tasks for you to complete." Lin Zixuan half-sat beside Ningguang's desk. He complained in his heart: They didn't even prepare a chair for me.

"The first task is to use one week to sort out the specific data of Liyue's tax items over the past 50 years, mainly expenditure items. The earlier the year, the better. Arrange people to do it quietly, so as not to arouse the vigilance of certain people.

The second task is to have the General Affairs Department compensate for the demolition and recycling of the main roads in Liyue Harbor that are less than 10 meters wide. Now is a period of economic depression, so the recycling cost is lower. Give enough compensation, set aside an area as a new real estate project, and allocate new houses. If the nail households still refuse to move, bring up the name of the Rock King and give them special treatment.

The third task is to evacuate and relocate the post station and inn on the mountain outside Liyue City, as well as the residents at the foot of the mountain, before the end of the month. As for the reason, just say that the mountain is going to be relocated. "

"Please tell me in detail. I need to know to what extent." Ningguang looked curious.

You didn't contradict me? Lin Zixuan explained patiently.

“The Emperor has delegated power to you seven stars a long time ago. At the beginning of this year, during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, only one imperial decree was issued, and it was for an insignificant matter.

After the continuous decentralization, some people saw opportunities to take advantage of. For example, there were loopholes in the law. The General Affairs Department gave a certain Seven Star a salary of 200 billion Mora, which was reasonable and legal.

This is just what happens on the surface, what about in secret?

The first mission was to catch the termites. Liyue had enjoyed good weather for many years, and with the maritime trade for many years, the taxes collected in the past 50 years must have been quite a lot.

The port hasn't been widened for fifty years. The Thousand Winds Army has been using the same equipment for thirty years, without upgrading to better equipment. The road outside Liyue hasn't been repaired for twenty years.

Where do you think this huge amount of tax went, apart from paying salaries to the General Affairs Department and the Qianyan Army? Did you try to get some?"

"No, this aspect is the responsibility of the other seven stars. There is indeed a problem. Every time I want to see the accounts, they will make excuses. What do you want?" Ningguang looked at Lin Zixuan curiously.

Lin Zixuan thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Ningguang was still young and had not yet developed to the point where she would make decisions on all matters in Liyue. There should still be some old Seven Stars holding her back. Her career was still in the accumulation stage.

"That's good. This time it should affect a lot of people. I wonder how many of the Seven Stars are left. I will give this information to the Emperor. Now that the Emperor has not retired yet, it would be better to let him come forward to deal with it."

"Retire? Doesn't that mean dying of old age?" Ningguang asked in surprise.

"I am one of the strongest seven gods after all. It is easy for me to live another 5000 years. Isn't it normal to retire when you are old?

The secondary purpose is to help you get a higher status. Now, these old-timers or those with connections look down on upstarts like you, right? They often trip you up.

In the future, the Seven Stars of Liyue will be ruled by Heavenly Power! With your strength and means, you will be able to do it in the future, but it will be too slow. It will be easier to get things done if you hold all the power during this period of time."

"Aren't you embarrassed to say that? You still say that Heaven's power is supreme, but I don't even have my freedom." Ningguang looked disdainful. Lin Zixuan quickly changed the subject.

“The second task will involve new roads, transportation and vehicles. Although the research and development work has not been completed so quickly, there are already certain results.

Now, taking advantage of the current depression in Liyue Harbor, we will reclaim these houses to the General Affairs Department to prepare for the later road widening. If you are optimistic about certain sections of the road, or have certain plans, you can also reclaim them as soon as possible. "

"New roads and tools? Then I'll go evaluate them first."

"As for the third mission, it means exactly what it says. The mountain at the entrance of Liyue Harbor is blocking the development of Liyue. I want to flatten that mountain."

“??? If you think the money is too much, just give it to me. That mountain has existed for a long time. How many years will it take you to find someone to dig it?” Ningguang had a frown on her face.

"This is Liyue's biggest problem. Clearly, if we remove this mountain and create a straight road, how much time do you think we can save in freight transportation? Just transporting goods by horse-drawn carriage can reduce two or three days to a few hours.

This is obviously a matter of great benefit to the world, but no one has considered it. Moreover, after so many years of development, Liyue Harbor has become a little crowded and should have been expanded long ago. After the mountain is flattened, a huge area can be vacated.

The most important thing is that this world has great power, and moving mountains and filling the sea is not difficult. Unfortunately, the emperor will not help to move the mountain, so I have to do it myself.

Liyue is now too comfortable and has lost its pioneering and enterprising spirit. You are the same, only doing venture capital in the business world to make a lot of money, but not creating a new path for Liyue.

It’s like when you see a cake, you desperately want to cut more for yourself, instead of trying to make the cake ten times bigger. The general direction of the past few years is to let Liyue regain this enterprising spirit. "

“There’s no benefit to you in doing this, right? I don’t understand why you would go to such lengths for Liyue.” Ningguang gradually became curious.

"Iron ingots are expensive to ship, so I want to save some money!" Lin Zixuan said perfunctorily. Unfortunately, Ningguang looked unconvinced.

"Practice more when you have time and smoke less. In a few years, you will become a thirty-year-old woman. If you don't practice to the peak of the 'He' stage and survive the heavenly tribulation, you will only live to be a hundred years old. By then, your Qun Yu Pavilion and the wealth you have accumulated will belong to me."

Lin Zixuan used words to stimulate this woman who was only concerned with making money. After all, after he left, a group of people would be needed to protect Liyue. In the future, he could instill some self-reliance in her, and it shouldn't go wrong!

Looking at Ningguang with the word '╬' on his forehead, Lin Zixuan hurriedly left the Qun Yu Pavilion.

The three secretaries who were just paddling around surrounded them.

"Lord Ningguang, what is he going to do?"

Ningguang took a puff of her long pipe. Will Liyue go in an unpredictable direction? Cut the cake and make it bigger. Then she remembered that he was going to take over all her property after she died. She looked at the long pipe and put it away.

"Hear all, know all, know all, you go..."

Lin Zixuan was teleported to Mingyun Town and found Uncle Fu in the office building.

"Uncle Fu, how is the cement production now?"

"Master, the cement made from slag has already filled up three warehouses."

"Now that we are not short of money, it is time to hire more people. This is the blueprint of the manual cement mixer. It is just a rough sketch. Let the blacksmiths make it and see what needs to be modified. After the modification, let the blacksmiths make a few.

Then we will pave the road from Mingyun Town to Guiyuanli with two lanes, and start construction in both directions. The reinforced concrete bridge over the river at the gate will be closed in the next few days and rust-proofed. The road to Guiyuanli is a plain, so it is relatively easier to repair. Is there any new progress in the research and development of Mingyun Town?"

"Master, in the new alloy project you arranged, one group of blacksmiths produced a batch of steel ingots with a new formula a few days ago. They are very wear-resistant. After making them into bearing columns, they arranged for people to use a testing machine to rotate them continuously for three days and three nights. The outer ring of the bearing was broken, but the columns with the new formula were still intact."

"Very good. There are really many smart people in Liyue. Give them enough rewards and register them. These people have created history. Tell them that their names will be included in the development history of Liyue. This can inspire others to be enterprising.

At present, roller bearings are only convenient for transporting heavy and large goods. Ball bearings are more advantageous for transporting small and medium-sized goods.

Let them know that whoever can mass-produce steel balls of the same size will be able to write his name in Liyue’s history.”

"Master, can this thing really be related to history?" Uncle Fu looked puzzled.

Lin Zixuan had a headache. This was the general view in Liyue at the moment. People had not yet seen the development brought about by this small bearing technology.

"Uncle Fu, please make arrangements to prepare two rickshaws, fill the seats with iron ingots, use the one currently in use by Liyue, and have the blacksmith install new roller bearings on the other rickshaw. Put them on the cement road in front of the office building. Notify me later."

Lin Zixuan walked out of the office building. This kind of cognition is still a common phenomenon in Liyue, and it is not easy to change one's mindset.

I looked at the hand-made bicycle next to the office building. The steel pipes were connected by holes punched in iron sheets and locked together. It looked crooked and was the original version.

Lathe mother machines and welding technology are also on the agenda. Ball bearings are core components that will be widely used in various industries in the future.

Not to mention, the 28-inch bicycles in a certain country on Blue Star often carry nearly one ton of bananas, and their carrying capacity exceeds that of ordinary horse-drawn carriages.
