Although I have been recruited by Liyue, I am afraid I still want more protection. If I eat her, she will make a profit, but I will bear more responsibility.
Judging from the way she plays with cars, this plane might also fall into her hands. It seems that we need to make some preparations in advance and put a chain on this Dragon King.
Walking out of the shipyard, I looked at the various sailboats busy on the sea in the distance. Sailing boats, a product of the backward times, should also disappear.
Steel ships powered by crystal engines will appear on the continent of Teyvat. In addition, the new ice-making technology has been completed, and deep-sea fishing is no longer a luxury, but you still need to be careful of those large aquatic monsters.
Night, Qun Yu Pavilion.
Ningguang was reviewing some urgent documents, and Baixiao was helping her pass the relevant information.
"Bai Xiao, if you have something to say, just say it directly. You seem to be hesitant to speak, is there something wrong?"
"Lord Ningguang, until today, Young Master Xuan has not been to the Jade Pavilion for a full year."
"No, didn't he send Huaguduo's clone over here some time ago?"
"How can the clone be the same as the original? His original body has never been here once."
"Maybe he's busy and has no time to come..."
"Lord Ningguang, stop deceiving yourself. You know very well that apart from going to Mingyun Town and the shipyard, he also spends time at home, and the rest of the time he spends drinking tea and listening to opera in the teahouse. He has so much free time, but he hasn't come to the Qun Yu Pavilion once in a whole year."
"Bai Xiao, has my love for you over the years made you bolder?"
"Lord Ningguang, we really can't go on any longer. This is the information our informant sent back from the new shipyard."
Photos of Lin Zixuan and Beidou that were very ambiguous appeared on Ningguang's desk. In some of the photos, the eyes were looking at the camera. What were the hands holding? Secret code? "You, don't, want it. I, want it."
"Snap!" The precious brush in his hand was broken abruptly, and a loud roar of "Beidou!!!" shook the Qun Yu Pavilion slightly.
......
In November, the General Affairs Department posted a new notice. When people looked at this new pension subsidy policy, they felt like the top of their heads were about to be blown off.
Starting next year, Liyue will launch a pension subsidy policy to ensure that the elderly in Liyue can have a comfortable later years.
Everyone in Liyue can go to Liyue Bank to apply for a pension subsidy account.
A fixed amount of money needs to be deposited into the subsidy account every month. There are currently three levels to choose from. The lowest is 15 years and the highest is 45 years. If the deposit is interrupted due to force majeure, it can be repaid later. It also supports one-time payment.
Introducing a new concept: the number of months for payment. It is related to the average age of Liyue's population and the retirement age.
The formula for pension benefits after retirement is: XXXX.
If the life expectancy is longer than the average age of Liyue's population, resulting in the balance in the account being drawn down, Liyue will also pay out the original amount until death.
If the life expectancy is shorter than the average age of Liyue's population and there is still money in the account, the General Affairs Department will collect inheritance tax and then look for heirs to inherit the estate in the order of the will and direct relatives.
Taking into account the inconveniences faced by the elderly, after writing a power of attorney, someone can collect the items on their behalf for 2 months, but they must show up at the General Affairs Department in various places within the third month.
The General Affairs Department will use the highest sentencing standards to try malicious incidents such as falsely claiming money after imprisoning the elderly, or falsely claiming money after the elderly have died.
......
“Ahhhhhh! I’m going crazy, how dare Liyue do this?” A young man from abroad was on the brink of collapse.
"Who on earth came up with this pension subsidy policy? They are simply inhumane!"
"Although this policy was led by Lady Ningguang of Tianquan Star, it certainly was not what she thought of."
"These seven stars are all big businessmen. They don't care about the lives of ordinary people like us. Only that person, and only that person, always stands by us ordinary people."
“For the first time, I felt that living in Liyue was truly wonderful.”
"You only need to pay a portion every month, and you can start receiving benefits once you apply for retirement. Once the money in the account is used up, you can continue to receive benefits, and if you can't receive all the benefits, you can leave them to your children."
"Doesn't this mean that as long as you live longer than the average life expectancy of Liyue's population, you'll make a fortune?"
"Some of the teas from Qiaoying Manor have the effect of prolonging life. I'm afraid they will sell like hot cakes, right?"
"The older you get, the more health problems you will have. For ordinary people, a serious illness that consumes all your savings is not an exception but a common phenomenon.
With this pension subsidy, even if you spend all your savings, you won’t become a burden to your family. It’s really a great policy.” An old man who looked to be in his 60s praised this policy very much.
"Uncle Tian, won't this overdraw the national treasury?" Keqing, who was standing by, felt that this policy was a bit unreliable.
"Mora is something you can't bring with you when you are born and you can't take with you when you die. Every year there are people who retire, but there are more young people who need to pay this fee every year. As long as we maintain a certain balance, there will be no problem. You still have too little experience.
Young Master Xuan nationalized the ironworks and mineral resources, perhaps to pave the way for the future of this policy.
If there are any special circumstances in the future, the Seven Stars will definitely stay out of it, and no one will fill a big hole. However, the Mora obtained from these iron smelters and mineral resources can be used to fill this hole. "
"Oh, so that's how it is!"
"You have only been in office as Yuheng Star for a short time, and many people have complaints about you. If you have time, you can ask him for advice.
You should have noticed that the core piece of land in Liyue Harbor New City, which is about half the size of Liyue Harbor, has been idle. All the purchase applications have been rejected. Given his personality, he will probably come up with something amazing. "
"Then I will go to him to learn from him in the next few days."
"Also, you can apply to Ningguang, get a pass, and go into the shipyard in the new city of Liyue Harbor to take a look. Before you go, ask Bubulu for some heart pills, and you will find that you are really insignificant. I went there to take a look, and I almost died."
"If it's a shipyard, then it's just a new ship, right? How big can it be? I heard that Beidou's Death Star is already one of the largest ships in Teyvat."
Uncle Tian smiled, as if he saw Keqing's surprise.
......
Liyue's pension subsidy policy spread quickly to Teyvat like a raging fire blown by a hurricane, surprising the rulers of the six kingdoms. The people of Liyue had already united and it was difficult to shake them.
In the first week after the policy was released, the number of people trying to cross the border into Liyue increased by 300%, and some members of treasure-stealing groups roaming abroad returned to Liyue to turn themselves in. The crowds at the border gate even paralyzed the border for a time.
In the new city of Liyue Harbor, Keqing, who had obtained the warrant, came to the new shipyard. The Qianyan Army was on high alert, and the supply vehicles were coming and going. Isn't it just a new wooden ship? Why is it so mysterious?
It wasn't until she entered the interior of the shipyard that her eyes widened, "What the hell is this!"
Chapter 93 Common Sense and Cognition
Keqing looked at the huge ship in front of her, a ship made entirely of steel. Her pupils were filled with it. Such a terrifying sight made Keqing's heartbeat speed up sharply.
I saw people spray-painting the boat in the distance. I kept telling myself: This is fake, this is an illusion. But when I touched the bottom of the boat, I knew it was real.
Looking up, it seemed as if a huge mountain was pressing down on me. Huge anchors were hung on both sides, and the iron chains on the anchors were as thick as a strong man's thigh.
Standing under the boat, I felt as small as an ant. I estimated the height to be at least 30 meters. And the length of the boat, which was so long that I couldn't see the stern, was probably more than meters.
Circling around the giant iron ship, there was only an unknown bright silver windmill-shaped object at the tail, with no oars or sails.
Keqing was confused. How could this thing really work without oars or sails? And she had never heard of iron floating. Iron sank directly to the bottom of the sea when put into water.
There is a hole on each side near the bow of the ship. If it is thrown into the sea, it will probably leak and sink.
It was not known what she had thought of, or it seemed as if she had made some decision. Keqing took two steps back, took out the Dragon's Roar from the Eye of God, and was about to chop at the hull to test whether the ship was strong enough.
Two wind-attributed God's Eye Thousand Rocks soldiers instantly appeared in front of Keqing, and the two Thousand Rocks spears crossed, blocking Keqing's movements.
"Lady Keqing, please don't make things difficult for us."
"Get out of the way! This thing is useless. It will sink if you put it in the sea. Iron cannot float on the water! I might just poke a hole in it. There are two holes in the bow. Do you want the boat to sink faster?"
"Lady Keqing, this ship was designed by the Liyue Research Institute and the Mingyun Town Research Institute, and built by the Liyue Ironworks and Shipyard. The main person in charge is still that Young Master Xuan. This ship is the result of the hard work of tens of thousands of people here, so please stay calm."
"So much iron is sinking into the sea. It's a waste of Liyue's assets!"
......
A quarrel broke out in a corner of the shipyard, and it involved a big shot like Yuhengxing Keqing, leaving the workers looking at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.
The person in charge of the General Affairs Department quickly took out a special intercom for emergency communication and contacted the Qun Yu Pavilion. The people in Mingyun Town also hurriedly contacted Master Xuan.
This is the most confidential place in Liyue, and Lin Zixuan has also kept a lot of emergency communication methods and backup plans, and the most feared thing is that it will be destroyed. Once a problem occurs, they can contact Qun Yu Pavilion and Lin Zixuan urgently.
The on-site person in charge of the General Affairs Department handed the special walkie-talkie to Keqing. Under Ningguang's persuasion, Keqing went to the shipyard conference room to wait for Ningguang's arrival.
......
Lin Zixuan, who was drinking tea with Zhongli at the Heyu Teahouse, was a little speechless after hearing the emergency report from the shipyard.
What is Keqing going crazy about? This shouldn't be the case! Is it because of the cognitive bias caused by common sense?
For thousands of years, it has been common sense that wood can float when thrown into water, while iron will sink when thrown into water. This common sense has become a theorem that restricts people's development.
"Oh, is it Keqing? That child is also a wonderful person."
"The Emperor knows her?"
"Two years ago, she succeeded Yuhengxing. At the invitation ceremony, she said something that left a deep impression on me: 'The Emperor has protected Liyue for a thousand years, but will it be the same for the next thousand years, ten thousand years, or a hundred thousand years?'"
"Children are like this, they speak without restraint and say whatever comes to mind. As the saying goes, an old person in the family is like a treasure. After decades of polishing and experience, the elderly tend to do things more prudently.
Otherwise, how could there be a saying: A man without hair on his lips cannot do things well. It is good for a young person like Keqing to be energetic, but she still needs more experience. I will go to the new shipyard to deal with this matter first, so I will leave first."
"Yeah. Go ahead!"
Lin Zixuan left Heyu Teahouse quickly. Great! Finally I don't have to pay! The executive officer of the Kingdom of Winter has also come to Liyue, let him take the responsibility of paying the bill!
Zhongli in the teahouse picked up the tea and took a sip, then paused slightly, as if he remembered something.
"Boss Fan, this time the expenses will be paid by Lin Zixuan of Xuanyuan Trading Company. Just send the bill to him."
"Sir, this is not good, right? I am running a small business."
"It's okay. This is his crystal black card. You can register it and send the bill to Xuanyuan Commercial Bank when the time comes."
"Are these the legendary Xuanyuan Commercial Bank's special black crystal cards that say 'You spend, I pay'? I want to know how to tell if they are real or not. Liu Su, Liu Su, come and help me take a look."
......
Inside the new shipyard.
People crowded together and talked a lot.
"We won't stop working, will we? Once the paint is applied and dry, we can go into the water!"
"Who knows? Wait for the arrangements."
"It took tens of thousands of people more than three years and countless materials to build this ship. If the Seven Stars ordered the construction to stop, it would be a huge loss."
"I want to see the day when this ship is launched. The contract is almost making me sick. I really want to tell my family that I am building a miracle in the new shipyard. If I stop the construction, I will go crazy."
"Don't worry, this is Young Master Xuan's responsibility. He will definitely make sure the ship is completed smoothly."
"That's right. That Young Master Xuan is not a good person either. Plus, there's Ningguang from Tianquan Star. With these two people together, the rest of the Seven Stars and Eight Sects will have to think twice before they want to cause trouble for them."
"Speaking of which, there seems to be a rumor that swearing in the name of Young Master Xuan will also be effective."
"Yes, yes, I heard about that incident too. There was a conflict in a family, and the gambler in the family swore to his wife: 'If you gamble again, you will be struck by lightning. Master Xuan from Xuanyuan Trading Company is my witness.'
I thought it was just a joke to please my wife, so I added a sentence and replaced the Emperor of Rock with Master Xuan. But now that man is still lying in Bubulu. "
"Oh, those three thunderbolts from the blue earlier?"
"That's right. The first time he came out of the gambling house, he was struck by lightning. He thought he was the chosen one and was fine even if he was struck by lightning. He even boasted about it.
Then when he came out of the gambling house for the second time, he was struck by lightning again, which paralyzed his left hand and made him unable to move for a week.
This third time, I think I’ll have to take care of it for a year or two.”
"However, someone later tried to swear using Young Master Xuan's name, and it seems that this situation did not occur again."
"For this kind of thing, it's better to believe it than not to believe it!"
......
"Master Xuan is here!!!"
"Everyone return to your posts, I'll take care of this. Don't worry, this ship will be in great shape next year."
"Great!"
The crowd dispersed, and the people of Mingyun Town told Lin Zixuan the details of what happened. Lin Zixuan asked them to arrange some of the demonstration materials that had been used before, as they would be needed later.
On the way to the meeting room, Lin Zixuan thought: Keqing's behavior is a bit abnormal. She should be considered an absolute supporter of Xuanyuan Trading Company.
I have collected her information before. She collected iron ingots from the iron ingot bubble incident, a commemorative pocket watch for the first cement road, the first generation of gift bicycles, a commemorative model that went on sale after the successful operation of the Liyue train, a commemorative model of the crystal bus, and one Xuanyuan Dragon and one Xuanyuan Tiger.
All signs indicated that she shouldn't be in this situation.
Having received a good education from a large family, I know more knowledge, but this also leads to a rigid mindset about many things.
Is it just a matter of common sense? Or is there some unknown reason?
Go into the conference room.
"Keqing, you are really impulsive this time. If the workers spread the news after get off work, the reputation of Yuheng Star will be greatly affected."
