Genshin Impact: Another Traveler of Teyvat

However, I don't know when, my legs have been firmly tied by a vine. It would be fine if I didn't struggle, but once I struggled, dozens of vines would come up to me.

Those who were strong would be in a worse situation if they struggled. A strong man was instantly sucked into a skinny frame. Some even had flowers growing on their bodies, which was very creepy.

"Yeah, yeah, I think you should tell me who your boss is, right?"

Lin Zixuan stood on the roof of his own villa, looking at the group of men in black and spoke in a mocking tone.

November 2nd.

A total of 36 companies in Liyue announced that they would return all the mineral lands they owned to Liyue free of charge. Another 16 companies disappeared forever.

When the people of Liyue Harbor heard what happened last night, they marveled at Lin Zixuan’s strength and how courageous these people really were.

Countless people in the tavern and teahouse began to talk about this incident, watching its final outcome.

November rd.

The new news posted by the General Affairs Department stunned everyone in Liyue. They simply couldn't believe it. A thriving business was gone just like that.

"The young master of Xuanyuan Trading Company has gone completely crazy, right? How could he do this?"

"I once thought that Xuanyuan Trading Company would continue to grow bigger and stronger and become the hegemon of Liyue, but I didn't expect this result."

"The Xuanyuan Trading Company's Ironworks, technology, and core personnel were transferred to the General Affairs Department and renamed the Liyue Ironworks. The General Affairs Department will be responsible for management and sales, and Yue Haiting will arrange for a secretary to supervise the flow of funds.

Xuanyuan Trading Company's research institute, technology and researchers were transferred to the General Affairs Department and renamed Liyue Research Institute. It was managed by the General Affairs Department and the military, and military management was implemented. The military was responsible for the safety of researchers.

Xuanyuan Trading Company will no longer be involved in the ironworks and research institutes. Xuanyuan Trading Company will return to the grain industry and sell some new technology products."

"It's such a waste. I worked so hard to build the new Xuanyuan Trading Company, but within a few years, I gave away everything I got. Now it's back to the mediocre grain selling business."

"Do the remaining stubborn people still want to hold on to their mines? Xuanyuan Trading Company has directly stated that it has given up the business with Yiyi Mora, and even gave away the research institute. If they still want to resist, they may end up like those 16 trading companies, losing both their people and their money."

“Emperor Yanwang! Please suppress him quickly! We cannot let him destroy Liyue.”

"If he doesn't do this, Liyue will really be ruined. Did you see the last part? What Master Xuan said is absolutely right. Merchants pursue profits, and merchants with large capital are even more so.

If there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; with a 20% profit, it becomes active; with a 50% profit, it will take risks; for the sake of 100% profit, it will dare to trample on all human laws; with a 300% profit, it will dare to commit any crime, even at the risk of being hanged.

If we don’t curb the growth of Xuanyuan Trading Company, then the Liyue Seven Stars won’t even know if they still have a reason to exist.”

"The Steam Bird Newspaper summarized the advantages and disadvantages of nationalization: Under nationalization, the state can uniformly control resources, which is easier to manage, can increase national tax revenue, and then regulate domestic production in various aspects. It can also solve the employment problem of surplus labor.

For example, the nationalization of the ironworks, with the state as the backing, sufficient funds, it is easier to develop new materials. There are also many disadvantages, compared with the advantages, not worth mentioning. "

"It seems that Qixing and the General Affairs Department intend to nationalize some basic material industries. Doesn't that mean that these state-owned companies don't lack money at all and have iron rice bowls? There is a lot of room for maneuver here!"

"Forget about it for at least 3000 years. Young Master Xuan of Xuanyuan Trading Company has put so much effort into promoting nationalization. Do you think he would allow anyone to ruin his plan while he is still alive?

Serious corruption cases will be dealt with by him. Leaders will be rotated every three years. Moreover, if your family has foreign nationality, they may not even be able to enter state-owned companies. In addition, under the supervision of hypnosis and immortal magic, if you want to be corrupt, think about the families of those termites. There are still many human-shaped stone sculptures abroad. "

"Yes! Now even running away is impossible. The border is full of rows of self-disciplined protective trees. It is a luxury to cross the mountains. The sea route is patrolled by the Qianyan Navy every day. Whether you will be alive to spend money at that time is still a question."

On the Qun Yu Pavilion.

Ningguang looked at the person who came to Qun Yu Pavilion every day to mix good tea, and her forehead couldn't help but twist into a well.

"Are you too idle? Don't you need to tinker with your inventions?"

"Now that the researchers and technology have been handed over to you, I will naturally have some free time."

"Where are those immortal talismans and props of yours? Don't you need to bother with them anymore?"

"The stock of amethyst blocks has been used up. This thing is also a controlled item in Inazuma, and not many have been shipped out. They just use it to make weapons, which is such a waste."

"So when are you leaving for Inazuma?"

"Let's wait until December. Let's go to Narukami Island first, and then go to Umi Island. The Coral Palace on Umi Island is relatively poor, lacking money and supplies. I plan to discuss cooperation with them first."

"Coral Palace? Her?"

"A living god priestess who is probably only about 8 years old now. She will be the supreme leader of Kaigi Island in the future. She owns the Eye of the Water Element God."

"Haigi Island...8 years old..." Ning Guang calculated her age and seemed to remember something.

"Um, are you thinking of going somewhere else again?"

"No, I didn't!"

"Don't think too much. We are just establishing a cooperative relationship. The most important thing is the glowing tower under the Kaigi Island. That thing is the key."

"A glowing tower?"

“It’s called the Great Sun Carriage, and it should be completely different from our technology. This device is likely to utilize the earth veins. I have to go and take a look.

What we need now is a stable power generation device, that is, energy, an energy source that can supply the entire Liyue Harbor.

Firepower is too polluting, so we don't consider it. As for wind power, this is not Mondstadt. Although there is some sea breeze, it is unstable and can be used to assist in power generation in the future. As for hydropower, it is the last choice at present. Building dams to block rivers will also have a great impact on the ecological environment. "

"Is there no other way? What about the amber solution?"

“That price is too high. You have to know that it requires powering Liyue all year round, and the amount of amber solution consumed is not a small amount.

There are other ways, such as using a large number of Thunder Slimes. The problem is that when they gather together, they will discharge electricity to each other. A few dozen of them are controllable, but once the group exceeds a hundred, ordinary Thunder God Eyes of the Transformation Stage will have to temporarily avoid the edge. Using a small batch is not a big problem, but if a large batch is used and there is a problem, the consequences will be very serious. "

"Is this electricity you're talking about really worth spending so much money on? Isn't Liyue doing well now? Candles are cheap, and oil lamps can burn for a long time."

"It is very important. It involves future trends. If we don't do it, Inazuma will definitely develop electricity in the future.

Because electricity is an economical, practical, clean, easy to control and convert form of energy, it can be converted into heat energy, light energy, kinetic energy, etc.

Just like the engine developed by the research institute, the same thing can be done with electricity, but for the sake of Liyue's development and growth, only this method that allows Liyue to monopolize raw materials is used. Electricity can bring unlimited possibilities to ordinary people. The motor technology you see can be used in so many places."

"In that case, I will go and arrange the documents and the ship first."

"Well, thank you for your hard work. Uh, by the way, during this time, Ganyu and I will plan the Crystal Bus Station and routes. The drivers are already in training, and when they are qualified, they will be handed over to the General Affairs Department for political review. After all, with so many people pulled every day, it would be troublesome if something went wrong."

"Oh, that big guy, it does need to be planned. But is it really okay to set such a low price?"

“This is the benefit of nationalization. Isn’t it normal for a country to provide welfare to its own citizens?

To be honest, this thing is basically just a skeleton at the moment. A batch of shells were made a year ago. Now the new version of the crystal engine has been installed in it. The windshield wipers are manual, there are only 3+1 gears, there is no air conditioning, and even the door requires the driver to pull the lever next to it to manually open and close the door. You can't even drive too fast or the brakes will overheat.

In my eyes, it is just a crystal car that needs to be scrapped and recycled. However, this thing currently represents the most advanced technology in Liyue. I will upgrade it slowly in the future and release it to the people of Liyue for a taste first."

"I think it's OK. At least it's much bigger than a horse-drawn carriage, and it has specially designed seats and armrests. But the price is too low, and I think it will be packed."

"It may be crowded at first, but after a while, when the novelty wears off, things will return to normal. After all, this initial version of the crystal car is relatively slow, with a maximum speed of just over 30 kilometers per hour, less than 40 kilometers per hour. Plus, it has to stop at every station. For those who are in a hurry, it's faster to ride a speed bike."

"I think those people would rather ride on a spar than on a bicycle."

"That can't be helped. After all, being lazy is normal."

......

After Lin Zixuan left.

"Bai Wen, help me collect information about Inazuma Umijima Island, especially the current human god priestess of the Coral Palace."

"Yes, Lord Ningguang."

Chapter 57: Liyue Crystal Bus

Late November.

The General Affairs Department has completed the nationalization of Liyue's mineral resources. Some important mines have been closed and guarded by the Thousand Rock Army, and there is even a large group stationed in the Layered Rock Abyss.

Official announcement: Liyue Ironworks will sell various qualified and compliant iron ingots and alloys.

The businesses discovered that the prices of these qualified and compliant iron ingots and alloys were not high. On the contrary, when converted into the costs of their own mining, they were actually more than 50% lower than their own mining costs.

The most important thing is that these iron ingots are marked with special symbols to prove that they are qualified and compliant, so there is no need to worry about the iron ingots being replaced by inferior ones.

Especially those alloys, some of which emit a special metallic luster, stacked one by one, in the eyes of some people is simply a strange beauty. There are even special alloy ingots for collection.

Those businesses that have obtained the patented technology for pipe drilling, when they see the finished iron ingots and alloys, they know how easy their lives will be in the future and they no longer have to worry about the supply problem.

Moreover, the main profit comes from sales to the other six countries. After all, many businesses in Liyue have obtained the right to use the patented technology for these iron pipes or alloy pipes, which makes the price in Liyue not expensive. Once shipped abroad, the price will double or triple.

The advantages of nationalizing mineral resources have already emerged and are gradually spreading among the people of Liyue. Low prices, guaranteed quality, and unlimited supply. Except for the high tariffs for shipping out, everything else is better than before.

Thanks to the entry of the General Affairs Department into the jade and other gemstone industries, a number of unscrupulous merchants involved in counterfeiting were cleared out.

Some reporters even took out some photos, showing that unscrupulous merchants poured a large amount of marble ore, which was similar to the skin of jadeite ore, into the grid marked with jadeite ore. This caused great damage to the reputation of Liyue's gambling on jade.

The huge fines made some businesses cry. For this malicious incident that affected Liyue's reputation, the General Affairs Department used a hypnotic application process, and those businesses could not deny it at all.

With the help of excavators, more jadeite ore is mined. On the last day of every three months, a large amount of jadeite ore is sold. In the name of the General Affairs Department, the authenticity of these materials is guaranteed, and the mine where they are produced is clearly written.

At the same time, all the materials that are smaller than the size of a fist will be piled up in the open space outside the Layered Rock Abyss. For a payment of 2000 Mora, each person can directly choose one piece every day. The first one to get it will win. No fighting is allowed.

If you want to try your luck, you can consider going there. Of course, there will be a lot of good materials shipped back to Liyue Port for sale, and the cooperating gemstone companies will provide cutting services, carving suggestions, and customization services.

The people in Liyue Harbor are all gearing up to try, betting on materials and luck. They are all experts, but it's just too far, nearly 1800 kilometers.

There is no train to Stratum Crusoe yet. Although the cement road has been constructed, the road to Stratum Crusoe is bumpy and requires many climbs. It is too troublesome to go back and forth. We can only wait for some business to come and transport the goods back to Liyue Port.

What is most shocking is the rare mineral resources such as amber and night-time stone. Their market prices have more than increased tenfold, especially the amber ore, which has increased by hundreds of times.

Every amber mine site has a Thousand Rock Army team stationed there. They are very important. The most bizarre thing is that the prices of the Vibration Crystals that no one wants are outrageous, and have increased by tens of thousands of times.

The people of Liyue speculated that the amber and crystal must be of great use, which made Ningguang of Tianquan Star and Young Master Xuan attach great importance to them, to the extent that they must nationalize the mineral resources.

In addition, during this period, many places in Liyue Harbor have erected a large iron sign with a bunch of place names written on it, and an arrow symbol to indicate the next stop. I have no idea what this thing is used for.

The last day of November.

A piece of heavy news once again swept through Liyue Harbor. The carriage companies and rickshaw drivers in Liyue felt the shock of the world.

"Extra, Extra, the General Affairs Department has launched the Crystal Bus. It is very cheap and will make it easier for people to travel. It will be put into trial operation tomorrow."

"??? What is a crystal bus?"

"Is it a horse pulling a crystal-like carriage? Let us experience the feeling of luxury?"

"Hey, if it's really this kind of carriage, I'll vomit all over the floor."

"It's only 100 Mora per ride, and you can ride from the starting point to the end point! Even if it's that crystal carriage, I can bear it."

"You can't even decide where to get off by yourself?"

"Oh, those iron signs are the stops. This means that the Crystal Bus only stops at these stops. Let's go and see how many stops we have to pass."

"From the bus station, go to the old city of Liyue, then to the new city, go to the train station, and then go back to the bus station. There are 30 stops in total."

"100 Moras going around Liyue Harbor? Why do I feel that this is a little fake?"

"It also says it's a trial run, with a bus every 10 minutes, and other routes and frequencies will be added in the future. It can't be fake. After all, since the mineral resources were nationalized, the General Affairs Department has become very rich."

"A carriage made of crystal! How much does it cost? You have too much money to spend, right?"

"I think you've all guessed wrong. Think about a train? Is it a locomotive that can run on ordinary roads?"

"Yes, it is very likely."

The people around expressed their agreement and looked forward to tomorrow.

The next day, 4 am.

A batch of iron-shell vehicles gradually drove towards the bus station. Reporters squatting at the entrance of Liyue Bus Station saw that people were pressing the camera button so frantically that some cameras even started to smoke.

"Wow, that's the light on the front of the train! It's so bright."

"How does this big piece of iron move?"

"All I heard was a clattering sound. It came from the back of the car."

"How were two pieces of glass this big made?"

One of the crystal buses stopped in front of the reporters, its doors opened, and several ceiling lights lit up inside the car.

"The General Affairs Department has arranged that in order not to affect the operation later, you can come up and take a look first." The driver in the car said to the reporters outside.

Reporters rushed to the car. They were stunned by the minimalist style of the car. There was a rectangular box for coins at the door. The driver's seat was surrounded by several guardrails and could not be entered. There were only about 20 seats in the car, and the rest were armrests.

"Luckily there aren't many of you. I'll take you around first. Remember to invest Mora, 100 Mora! If you have any questions, you can ask me. I'm the captain of the bus team."

The door closed, the car started to move slowly, and exclamations continued to be heard from inside the car.

"How did this car move? I can only see the floor and seats. And the disc in front of your seat."

"This is the latest crystal engine developed by the Liyue Research Institute. It uses the vibration between the crystals to drive it. You should know about these crystals, the ringing crystals and the response crystals, right?

Once the Xiangzhen crystal absorbs the rock elemental force, it will produce a special ripple, which will be received by the Yingzhen crystal and move. This crystal engine is made by using this characteristic. "

"No wonder the price of vibrating crystals has increased ten thousand times."
