After entering the conference room, Xie Yan discovered that there were nearly thirty or forty people in the room. The scale was much larger than the first time he attended the meeting. There were familiar faces such as Haizige and Seno, as well as latecomers like Candice.
“There are many details to discuss at this meeting. Since rangers like Tinari are rarely in the city, we will invite middle and high-level officials to attend the meeting.” The gentle voice of the Great Compassionate Tree King sounded in his ears.
Xie Yan nodded slightly. The sages and cronies of the four factions of Xumi were all deeply involved in the god-making project and academic corruption. The power reshuffle was much more serious than that of the shogunate at that time. Now that the situation has basically stabilized, it is indeed necessary for the new middle and high-level leaders to meet together.
Moreover, Nashida now seems to be intentionally imitating the shogunate system. She did not continue to delegate power to the sage as in the original plot, and basically took care of all the major matters herself.
Even though she did not deliberately show her majesty and her slightly chubby face was full of childishness, no scholar in the conference room dared to look down on her and they all lowered their heads humbly.
Xie Yan's eyes were full of relief. Nashida finally showed some signs of being in charge and was managing Xumi in an orderly manner.
However, as the two of them sat down on the left and right sides of the main seat, Xie Yan looked down and saw Nashida's cute little feet swinging back and forth.
Noticing Xie Yan's gaze, Nashida blinked at him. Seeing Xie Yan return to Xumi, she couldn't suppress her joy even in the meeting.
But thinking that her brother Xie Yan was not paying enough attention to Xumi, she decided to continue to let Xie Yan wash her feet to punish him.

After giving her mother a look that said "Wow, you forgot about your daughter now that you have Uncle Xie," Nashida officially announced the start of the meeting.
The Great Ci Tree King looked at Nashida deeply, resisted the urge to spank his daughter, and introduced the main content of today's meeting to Xie Yan, so that he could make a judgment in his mind in advance. However, he was quite satisfied with the way the family of three got along with each other.
Humph, can Lei Movie do that?
But Nashida has been contaminated by forbidden knowledge, and the Great Tree King is still looking forward to the birth of Kiana. She thinks that under her education, the other party will definitely be able to kill Lei Dianying's child.
Win at the starting line!
Xie Yan listened very seriously. His wife and sister complained that he was not serious enough about Xumi, so naturally he had to show his ability. However, the first few topics were basically related to academics or funding, so he thought about it and decided not to interrupt.
Xumi is not short of resources, and ordinary people can even enjoy basic survival guarantees and free medical services through the void, but if they want to gain more wealth and status, they can only rely on academic breakthroughs.
This policy started in the era of King Mahabodhisa, but due to the lack of godly supervision, the academic atmosphere has deteriorated. Overall, it is still in line with the national conditions of Xumi.
It was not until he heard everyone discussing the void authority held by scholars that Xie Yan spoke up and said, "My sister and I have discussed that scholars' reliance on the void will seriously restrict Xumi's academic development, and there is also a shortage of void energy now. The relevant policies will not be changed for at least the next ten years."
After the words were spoken, everyone looked disappointed, except for a few scholars who relied on their own research.
Scholars have always been dissatisfied with the adjustment of the authority of the void. This is not just a problem of computing power. The most important thing is that without the guidance of the void, they have no research ideas even when facing a wide-ranging topic like alchemy. Some tutors even perform worse than their own students.
If it were during Azar's time, everyone could still use the traditional culture of Sumeru to steal the first author of a student's paper, but now they can only watch themselves being embarrassed.
Some of the middle and high-level people present were like this, so even though they knew that there was little hope, some people couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, now that there is a god-level strongman as the energy source of the void, it should be enough to supply scholars above the level of Hebanda, right?"
Xie Yan was stunned for a moment, then recalled his degree from the Institute of the Church: Hebanda was a wise man with extensive knowledge and the ability to guide others, which would be considered a graduate student supervisor on Earth.
"The doctor can only provide the power to operate the void. Providing computing power requires the individual's willingness, but he obviously won't cooperate now." Xie Yan said calmly, "There's no need to mention this matter again. Even if my sister agrees, I won't agree. If you really have any objections, you can talk to me privately."
Xie Yan could probably imagine the state of the doctor's slice. The seal of the Chibaku Tensei would make him feel as if he was in a silent and dark universe, where everything was stagnant and time stood still. After another ten or even nine years, sooner or later he would give up thinking like a certain perfect creature.
But unfortunately, before Xumi finds a new energy source, he still needs to supply the operation of the void. Even if the doctor wants to give up, it is useless. The Divine Chain wrapped around the outside of the Chibaku Tensei will always remind him that "Swordsman cannot rest yet."
Seeing that both Nashida and Xie Yan were determined, the scholars had to give up the idea completely no matter how unwilling they were... In fact, this was the drawback of co-governance. They were dissatisfied with the new decree issued by Nashida, so they wanted to come to Xie Yan to seek a breakthrough.
However, today's conversation made them realize that Xie Yan and Nashida, the brother and sister, have exactly the same stance, and the intrigues of the mortal world have no effect on them.
Alas, I should have thought of it earlier. Lord Grass God is willing to let the prince hold a party in Jingshan Palace. How could there be a conflict between the two?
And everyone knows that the palace that Lord Grass God has prepared for the prince is even better than his own, and he is also searching for candidates for a princess. He is buying a house and helping to arrange a wedding. It is obvious that he is a brother-supporting demon!
Their eyes secretly turned to the Great Compassion Tree King beside Xie Yan. Xie Yan had taken them out shopping before, and Nashida had a good relationship with her, so she had been recognized as a princess from Xumi.
Xie Yan had been observing these people. Seeing this, he suddenly looked at the Great Ci Tree King, wanting to see how she reacted to the identity of the princess. At first, she had some confusion in her eyes. After noticing Xie Yan's gaze, she glared at him with a look of shame and annoyance, but finally turned into a tacit acceptance.
comfortable!
Although he had long sensed that the Great Ci Tree King's attitude had softened, when he saw with his own eyes that she had accepted the identity of princess, Xie Yan suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment in capturing prey after going through so many hardships. It seemed that his reputation as a diamond hunter was indeed well-deserved.
Just at this moment, Nashida gave him an aggrieved look that said "You must take good care of your mother", and Xie Yan was even less able to realize that something was wrong.
This sense of accomplishment made him quite excited. If he wasn't in a meeting now, he would definitely invite Daci Tree King to play Zhoudi, and then take her and Yingmei to play in a three-person team.
"Ahem, but I have some ideas about the use of the void recently." Xie Yan tried to calm himself down by talking about business. "I know Xumi attaches great importance to knowledge, so I have never thought about expanding the radiation range of the void. But now the void is just a communication tool. I think it can be promoted, which will also help Xumi's economic improvement."
Promote the void?
The scholars subconsciously wanted to refute. After all, the House of the Decrees had previously strictly guarded against the Desert People and prohibited the leakage of knowledge, let alone to foreigners. But when they thought that Void no longer had the authority to read the materials, they seemed to have no reason to object.
The most crucial thing is that Xumi's economy is in trouble now, and everyone heard the news that Zhidong Country might start a trade war before the meeting.
After a moment of silence, Tinari was the first to break the silence: "I don't know much about the economy, but the Void is now investing in the people's livelihood sector, forming industries such as food delivery and social platforms. Its own communication function acts on the consciousness level and is far ahead of other countries. If it is really promoted, even if we only charge technical fees, we can still get a lot of income."
"Indeed, Fontaine and Zhidong both have the ability to communicate remotely, but their functionality is much worse than that of the Void, and the Void terminals can be mass-produced through the Heart of the Grass God, which Zhidong Kingdom cannot imitate." Nafis agreed. As a sage of the Life Theory School, he knew many secrets.
Both the master and the disciple had very clear ideas, and after they finished speaking, they aroused chorus of approval. Some people even boasted about the "Prince's brilliant opinion". Only Seno, Elhaisen and others did not say much.
Xie Yan and Nashida frowned slightly when seeing this. What Tinari and the others said was right, but this group of people who agreed with them did not see any issues that needed to be considered in promotion. They chose to agree, largely because the status of the forest rangers and the Shenglun School had risen, which made them believe that a new great sage would appear in the Shenglun School.
Sure enough, the customs formed over the past five hundred years cannot be changed by just a few words or laws, and Xumi still has many hidden problems.
In fact, every country cannot escape this. If Liyue did not have Ganyu and the old man to suppress it, the troubles caused by merchants ruling the country would definitely not be less than those in Mondstadt and Inazuma.
Xie Yan would naturally not allow such an atmosphere of empty talk. Besides, meeting time was precious, so how could he waste it on flattery?
He curled his fingers slightly and tapped the table a few times. "Meetings are for discussing business matters, not for flattering each other. Elhaisen, tell me if there are any problems with promoting the Void Terminal."
Nashida did not speak during the conversation. It would be more appropriate to let Xie Yan play the villain.
"Your Majesty, if the Void Terminal can be promoted, the benefits will definitely outweigh the disadvantages. However, its essence is the product of divine power and authority. Other countries may not be willing to accept it. This is a great threat to their national defense and security. I am afraid that adjustments need to be made. At least the consent of the gods of other countries must be obtained."
"Another issue is energy. The number of people in the rainforest is already quite large, and now the desert people can also use the void. If we continue to expand, the energy supply from the doctor alone will definitely not be enough."
Elhaisen's words poured some cold water on him, causing those who had just agreed to blush, but this was also his usual style.
Xie Yan also calmed down. He actually wanted to use his country's characteristics to expand revenue channels just like promoting the auction in Mond, but the void was obviously much more complicated.
Nashida and the Great Compassion Tree King remained silent, quietly waiting for him to speak. Both of them regarded him as the head of the family.
Xie Yan pondered and said, "Your answer is crucial. Although the void is very helpful in improving local productivity, I can only promote it in Mondstadt and Inazuma. I will try it when I return to Inazuma. As for energy supply, I can solve it with the Heart of Thunder God. We can talk about other countries later."
He was definitely going to equip Inazuma with the Void. This thing would be used in the army. Combined with the talismans and props he made, it would directly allow the shogunate army to evolve into a modern army, which would greatly enhance the national strength.
This issue was not satisfactorily resolved, but other scholars had some understanding of Xie Yan's character and felt relieved. It turned out that the prince was not as overbearing as they had imagined. As long as what was said made sense, he would gladly accept it even if it offended his face. What he cared more about was the ability to get things done.
After realizing this, the pace of the following topics became much faster. This could be considered as a period of adjustment between the monarch and his subjects.
He listened to two relatively important topics, namely the research on mechanical life and the incorporation of the Gilded Brigade. The former was somewhat related to Tinari. While patrolling the forest, he discovered a mechanical life that could steal spare parts. After investigation, he learned that it originated from the illegal research of a student of the Ordinance Academy. However, the other party seemed to have developed intelligence and was placed in the Zen Garden by Tinari.
The latter is under the charge of Dishia and Candice. According to Candice, after the Eye of Achmar was destroyed by Nashida, its superior mercenary group, the Legacy of the God-King, originally planned to surrender with all its affiliated groups, but later found that in order to recruit them, they needed to investigate their criminal history. These evil mercenaries immediately fled to the desert.
Dishia had just dealt with the Tanit tribe some time ago, and now he has taken over such a mess and is having a headache about how to solve it.
Xie Yan took note of this matter and planned to pay attention to this capable general.
But the last topic still made him unable to hold back.
"Your Highness, according to the news from the Port of Omos, the merchants of the Kingdom of Winter are not very friendly to us. The main reason is... uh, they think you are too cruel to the doctor."
“Are they serious?”
"Yes, it is said that they have already drafted a diplomatic document to denounce our suppression of the Kingdom of Winter."
When Xie Yan heard this, he couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, as if he was confused when Yingmei sat on his face in the bedroom last night.
The Kingdom of Zhidong actually said that he was cruel?
Xie Yan didn't care. If it was Mond who heard the threat from the Kingdom of Winter, there would be nothing they could do. But now Xumi had three gods in charge, so why should they give face to the Kingdom of Winter?
Besides, these people don't want to think about what the beast Doctor has done. Maybe some people will say that the Doctor has become like this because of the poor research environment of the Teaching Institute and the thesis being stolen, and the clown's guidance, but why should Xie Yan care about the growth of criminals? He is not the father of the Doctor.
"No matter what the Zhidong Kingdom says, just treat it as fart. Who in Xumi doesn't know that I, Xie Yan, am the Living Buddha of the Desert?" He did not hide his attitude at all.
Now even Seno couldn't hold it anymore, they are calling you the Desert Death God!
He thought to himself that as a high-ranking disciplinary officer respected by everyone in Xumi, his methods were no worse than anyone else's. But after meeting Xie Yan, he realized what cruelty was. His colleagues were discussing today: Do the monsters in the abyss feel pain?
But the result of the discussion was that it depends on whether Xie Yan feels it or not. If he thinks the enemy has no sense of pain, then the enemy had better hope that he really has no sense of pain.
But Nashida thought of an important question. She frowned and said, "I made some adjustments to the Port of Ormos some time ago and supported a new mercenary group. Are they inexperienced and unable to fight against the merchants of Solstice?"
This was the result of previous discussions between Xie Yan and King Dacishu, to bring the Port of Omos under the control of the Council of the Church, but now it seems that the effect is not ideal.
But the scholar in charge of this matter shook his head and said, "That's not the case. The [rich man] in the Kingdom of Winter is indeed powerful. In the past, the economy of Winter was not much better than that of Xumi, but now it is catching up with Liyue. I heard that they are still trying to formulate a new currency to replace Mora. Ningguang from Tianquan Star even sent a diplomatic letter on this matter, hoping that we can fight against Winter together."
Xie Yan raised his eyebrows. This was something that was not mentioned in the game, but it made sense when you think about it. Now that Mora had stopped production, how could the Kingdom of Zhidong give up the right to mint coins?
The scholar continued, "In fact, we in Xumi have not studied business in depth, and the Gilded Brigade has not studied it systematically. Their operating model is still very crude."
"I'm surprised you didn't blame the Gilded Brigade."
"Your Highness, you are joking. The desert people have learned the truth through exploring the Red King's ruins some time ago. The Great Compassion Tree King did not betray the Red King. On the contrary, he is the benefactor of the desert. The desert people have begun to integrate into the rainforest. We are all Xumi people. How can we be suspicious of each other?"
Xie Yan and Nashida both nodded in approval. In the past, scholars would definitely say "Everyone can speak freely and deduct points for the desert people". This time, things really began to change, proving that Xie Yan's thinking was correct. It was useless to rely solely on material support. They had to start from many aspects to ensure that there was no difference between desert people and rainforest people in Xumi, otherwise something would happen sooner or later.
The meeting came to an end here. Overall, Xie Yan was quite satisfied. He also proposed a feasible solution to the economic difficulties: outsourcing.
He planned to invite Eze, Diluk's butler, to Port Ormos for a period of time, so that the Gilded Brigade and scholars could study under him seriously. The other party had been able to fight against the Fatui for so many years at the Dawn Winery, so his level was definitely sufficient.
"It turns out that the prince also knows Diluk. This noble young man from Mondstadt is said to be the uncrowned king of Mondstadt. He also has the Dawn Chamber of Commerce, the Dawn Adventure Group and other industries under his command." A scholar exclaimed.
The corner of Xie Yan's mouth twitched. He seemed to have heard some extraordinary term. How could Diluk, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, know what the Dawn Adventure Group was?
The meeting ended here, and Xie Yan was the first to leave with his wife and sister.
The three did not continue to stay in the Jiaolingyuan, but went directly back to Jingshan Palace.
On the way, the Great Compassion Tree King was quite surprised: "It seems that you have done a lot in Mondstadt. It seems that the three ancient nobles of Mondstadt are very supportive of you. If you stay there, you can really become the next Wind God."
"There's no need. Even if I don't have to worry about the principles of heaven, I still feel that the burden is too heavy. Dao... ahem, Xumi still has a lot of problems." Xie Yan cleverly changed his words midway. He found out last time that the Great Compassion Tree King was very dissatisfied with his concern for Dao's wife.
It can be predicted that her relationship with Ying may not be very good. I hope that the fight between the two will not spread to the next generation!
Wait, where's Shadow?
Xie Yan remembered that it was as if Amber was scouting and Ying was still dueling with the general.
Fortunately, after witnessing Inazuma's changes and Wendy's advice, Ying is no longer confused. I'm afraid that the two of them will be able to determine the winner during this period of time.
Seeing that Xie Yan finally cared about Xumi, the Great Compassion Tree King was very pleased. She introduced softly, "It seems that you still have an idea in your mind. Tomorrow we will go to Omos Port in person... Humph, don't forget what you promised last time."
Thinking of this, the Great Compassion Tree King suddenly looked at Nashida beside him. Although she could accept a family of three going shopping, she always felt like there was an extra light bulb when Nashida was brought along, and her eyes suddenly showed some disgust.
This Nashida has been contaminated by forbidden knowledge and cannot be kept!
Yes, during the shopping process, the Great Compassion Tree King was thinking of pretending to be a weak prey, so that Xie Yan would arouse his ferocious side and take him into the fitting room.
But if Nashida was by her side, how could she have the nerve to show her acting skills? She was afraid that when she asked Xie Yan to change her skirt, Nashida would lie on top of the fitting room and stare at her.
The mother and daughter were in sync. Nashida puffed up her face in anger, and she glared at her with her hands on her hips, "Mom, I want to go too!"
She coughed twice and said, "Brother Xie Yan, you may not know this, but tomorrow Miss Nilu will be performing a charity dance in Omos Harbor to raise funds for the orphans who have migrated from the desert."
Righteousness! Dance!
Sisters are here to rap for you!
In order to get Xie Yan to agree, Nashida hugged Xie Yan like a koala, rubbing her delicate little face against his chest and said coquettishly: "Woo woo woo, when I was still in the cage, I really wanted to see Miss Nilu's performance. Brother Xie Yan, please take me with you. Mom is so mean."
Yes, although no one from Inazuma has come to Xumi for the time being, but there is no Shura field, I can create one myself. Didn't brother Xie Yan say before that Ni Lu was his fiancée? How could she become a red-haired female passerby?
Who can make up for the lack of nutrition in Shura Field?
Nashida has been suppressed for too long, and Xie Yan is her source of happiness. If she can't amuse her sister-in-law and mother, what's the point of life?
To be honest, if her identity was not inappropriate, she would have wanted to experience the Shura field herself.
She didn't know that when this thought came to her mind, a faint light flashed in the emerald eyes of the Great Compassionate Tree King.
Xie Yan seemed to sense something. For a moment, he seemed to see a word "danger" appear on Nashida's head, but it quickly disappeared.
At this time, Nashida was still acting coquettishly, and being rubbed by her cute face like an elf, Xie Yan had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, then let's go together."
"By the way, do you have any other plans for today?" Xie Yan turned and looked at the Great Compassion Tree King.
She glared at Nashida helplessly, and suddenly pursed her lips: "It's getting late now, let's rest in Jingshan Palace first, and train Kelai and other rangers tomorrow."
"Mom, it's only a little after five in the afternoon." Nashida looked up at the sky. At this time, she could only see the sunset, but it didn't seem as exaggerated as her mother said that she had to rest immediately.
Wait, could it be that...
Xie Yan understood and nodded, "Then we will go and rest first. Nashida, if Ying comes back, you can arrange accommodation for her and Amber."
He knew it was time to fight Zhou Ben!
When he looked at the Great Compassion Tree King, he saw a hint of pride in her eyes, as if saying "I won't give in easily". The pride that Xie Yan had just felt for having captured his prey was gone. It seemed that the Great Compassion Tree King still had a bottom line. Fortunately, he was smart, otherwise he would not have been able to get to this point.
So inspiring!
