Original God, I am the only designated Red King God Envoy of Xumi

Sheikh was worthy of being the manager of the Zubair Theater. Having read many scripts, he quickly summarized the main story line, which was also the main story line in the book written by Amber. Nashida eliminated many things that were not so important to the opera and made appropriate changes, leaving only the essence, in order to compress the entire opera process - even so, it was still a six-hour opera.

Nashida even had the unique idea of ​​writing a song for the protagonist in each stage, plus the elegy on the way to fall written with the help of amber, a total of four songs. In this respect, she is worthy of being the goddess of wisdom.

"Indeed, as Mr. Zubair said, it is a very serious and realistic story - as if this story happened at some point in the past, and the protagonist of the story died without our knowledge." Teacher Nilu also gave it a high evaluation. She had read this book before, and now she had even more insights. Through this story, she seemed to be able to feel what the messenger of God was thinking when he was creating it. This is probably the charm of "literature", which is similar to art.

"Hmm... I always feel that the protagonist is so pitiful. Why does he have to suffer all this?" Compared with Sheikh and her teacher, Nilu was much more emotional at this time. After reading this script full of tragedy and shattered hopes, she just felt blocked in her heart.

"Haha, little Nilu is still young, it's normal for her to not like tragedy - to be exact, no one with a normal brain would like tragedy." Amber placed the "Hand of Sin" on Nilu's head and stroked it gently to soothe Nilu's emotions.

"Then... since you don't like tragedies, why do you write these?" There was some confusion in Nilu's eyes, and Amber smiled at her.

"Because the focus is not on the tragedy itself, but on the 'meaning' behind the tragedy."

“What’s the meaning behind the tragedy?”

"Yes, I'm a scholar from the desert, a member of the Chi Nian clan. When the divine messenger was writing this book, something terrible happened in the clan." Amber's expression grew slightly more serious as she recounted to Nilu, "A retired businessman built an orphanage in the clan, but when it was completed, some irresponsible people abandoned their children nearby."

"This is a very bad trend. If it continues like this, the business will be under tremendous financial pressure. The orphanage will soon go bankrupt. This is when the divine messenger stepped in to ban this behavior and strengthen supervision. He also contacted the foundation to secure donations for the orphanage."

"After that, the Lord God strengthened the ideological and moral education of the people of the sand. This book was also written by her during that time. The Lord God's original intention in creating this book was to show readers the real scenes that happened in the desert, and to use this form to 'shout' and 'accuse'. I think she herself did not like this kind of story."

"Hmm..." Nilu lost her energy for a moment and fell into silence, thinking about something seriously. Seeing this, Amber just rubbed her head with a little force.

"As I said, normal people don't like tragedy—those who appreciate tragedy itself probably have something wrong with them. Most people who have actually experienced tragedy don't like it, and most authors who create tragedy don't like it either. They often use their works to accuse or reflect some real problems of the times they live in. The core of these problems lies behind the tragedy, not in the tragedy itself."

"In my opinion, tragedy for the sake of sadness is simply an incompetent creator's attempt to elevate the 'depth' of his or her work, but the result is a work without any value."

"I couldn't agree more with this!" Sheikh looked like he had found a comrade. He has always been fond of happy endings and agreed with Amber's views. Teacher Nilu also had no different opinions on Amber.

"Then the only thing left is the issue of selection." Nashida's eyes flashed. She looked at Nilu, and after a moment turned her gaze to Nilu's teacher.

"How about letting Nilu play the protagonist's teenage years? Then Teacher Nilu will play the youth and adult years. This will also be an opportunity for Nilu." Nashida explained her idea, and this idea attracted the approval of Teacher Nilu.

"Indeed, Nilu has been practicing dancing with me for a long time, and it's time for her to step onto the stage and gain some performance experience."

"——Eh?! Can I really do this?" Nilu looked at her teacher with half surprise and half excitement, but her teacher just gave her an affirmative look in response.

"I will definitely work hard!" Seeing her teacher's recognition of her, Nilu was immediately motivated. Her teacher and Sheikh looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

What they didn't tell Nilu was that in a while, her teacher would be preparing to retire from the Zubair Troupe and move behind the scenes - she had found the love of her life and planned to officially enter the marriage hall and embrace her own happiness.

But saying this now might be a bit shocking to Nilu, so it would be better to wait until the performance is over. If Nilu performs well this time, she will be the mainstay of the Zubair Theater and take over the teacher's position.

The teacher looked at Nilu's energetic appearance, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She was looking forward to the day when Nilu would surpass herself.

Chapter 52: A "Legend" of Only One Class

The Ordination House has been much noisier than usual these days. This is the case every time new students arrive. Once the new students become familiar with the Ordination House and their school life, the atmosphere will no longer be so lively and will begin to become more orderly.

There has always been a so-called "tradition" in the Faithful Court. Some nosy scholars always like to select the most "potential" freshmen from various schools. This year, the Sulun School - and even the entire Faithful Court - is filled with the name of a freshman: Nafi.

She was a freshman in the Su Lun School, but had the right to audit other schools. She was a possessor of the Eye of God and received an olive branch from the teacher in her first class - and she only attended this one class. After that, she immediately chose to devote herself to preparing for the placement test, and successfully passed the placement test a few days ago.

What does this mean? This means that this scholar skipped two years, skipping the "accumulation period" and entering the "practice period." Looking back at the history of the Faithful Court, the only person who could match this level of efficiency was Lisa Mintz, a talented graduate from several years ago.

It’s a pity that the talented graduate who graduated from the Academy of Teachings in just two years left Xumi immediately, and no one knew where she went.

The debate over who was the most promising freshman was very heated, but it did not affect Amber who was doing experiments in her room. After passing the placement test, she immediately devoted herself to research. She had already set a direction for herself, which was the direction of civilian devices.

On the table in front of Amber was a small cabinet with a metal shell. This was something Amber had long envisioned but had never actually started to make. Now that the biggest and only problem had been solved, Amber made it.

"Hmm...are the delicious foods you mentioned not ready yet?" Aji, who was sitting at the table, had a little anxiety in her eyes. She did not go out and run around as usual today, only because Amber told her that she had made a utensil that could be used to make snacks suitable for summer.

"Don't be impatient." Amber calculated the time and waited for a moment before opening the cabinet door. As the cabinet door was opened, a wisp of cold air overflowed from it. This was the core of Amber's research this time - the freezer.

Although this thing sounds like it has no difficulty, there are still many problems when it comes to actual development. Amber did not find anything that is low-cost and can emit stable cold air in a relatively ample time. For a while, she even set her sights on ice slimes, but living things are always dangerous and do not meet the "civilian" safety standards, so she had to give up in the end.

The breakthrough was ultimately caused by an accident. Although Amber did not find something that could emit cold air stably, he accidentally mixed a liquid that could strongly absorb heat. Amber called it refrigerant. Through reasonable design, it can achieve the effect of recycling, which greatly reduces the loss of refrigerant caused by the process of heat absorption. With the current design, according to Amber's idea, the refrigerant needs to be replenished about once every 6 months.

As for the cost of the refrigerant, it is at a level that is neither high nor low. If someone is willing to invest in large-scale production, the cost will be reduced to a very low price for large-scale production. The purpose of Amber manufacturing freezers is originally for civilian use, so this is not a problem at all at present.

Now that the freezer has been built, the next step is obvious. Amber immediately bought the ingredients and started making ice cream. Sugar, eggs, cream, vanilla and milk are not considered luxuries in Xumi, so it would be a big loss not to make ice cream.

Amber took out the frozen ice cream in the cup, placed it in front of Aji, and handed her a spoon. Aji looked at the cold thing curiously, tried it a little, and this made her eyes widen.

The icy cool texture and the soft yet strong sweetness conquered Ah Ji's taste buds in an instant. She savored the ice cream spoonful after spoonful, and she still felt a little unsatisfied after finishing the whole cup.

"Anything else?" Aji looked at Amber with a gleam in his eyes.

"No more." Amber shrugged. She even took just one bite to confirm whether there was any problem in the production. The result was naturally pleasing. It was certainly not as good as the ice cream that had undergone many improvements in her previous life, but it was delicious enough.

"Since you are going to make it anyway, why not make more? It's too stingy to make only one cup!" Ah Ji's cheeks puffed up. She was already a little chubby, and now she looked like an angry hamster.

"-So, Aji still wants to eat, right?" After hearing Aji's words, Amber pushed her glasses. This was the sentence she was waiting for.

"Of course!" Aji stood up from his chair. "So, is there any more? Give me some more!"

"Yes, yes...but Aji wants to help me do something." Amber curled her lips slightly and stated her purpose. Aji's face immediately fell when she heard it - every time Amber showed this expression, she would be busy.

"Do...what?" With the last bit of hope, Aji asked Amber's purpose. Seeing this, Amber no longer hid it. She took Aji to the warehouse and lifted the waterproof cloth used for covering.

What appeared in front of Ah Ji was a large freezer, which was placed on a cart. When the freezer was opened, it contained six large buckets of ice cream and some fruit tea that Amber had already prepared. Amber pushed aside the fruit tea piled on top, revealing a small bucket, which, needless to say, was still filled with ice cream.

"The square is not far from where we live, and it is a relatively hot season right now. I need you, Aji, to push the cart to the square to sell these things. These are paper cups. When you put ice cream in them, don't fill them up, just fill 4/5. One cup sells for 3 Mora. As for these cold drinks, one bottle sells for 5 Mora. As for this small bucket of ice cream, it is your hard work fee." If Aji was not a town spirit, Amber would never prepare a small bucket of ice cream for her. As a town spirit, she would basically not get an upset stomach, so it didn't matter.

Amber was explaining, and Ah Ji understood her purpose in just a moment: "Do you want me to write down the contact information of merchants who want to cooperate with you, so that you can choose when you come back?"

"That's right." Amber smiled. She was not short of Mora. The purpose of doing this was naturally not to earn Mora but to find a suitable businessman to establish cooperation. She had submitted the paper on refrigerants a week ago and it was about to pass the review. There was basically no need to worry about plagiarism.

"...Yeah." Aji pondered for a moment. She felt that this didn't seem difficult, so she finally agreed to Amber. Amber handed the last few equipment to Aji, including large parasols in bright colors and folding signs with very attractive slogans. With these things, plus such a large freezer, Aji could easily imagine the scene in the square at that time.

With the umbrella open and the cards placed, she will be the most beautiful girl in the entire square!

——Fortunately, Ah Ji, as a town spirit, has a different cognition from that of ordinary people. If it were an ordinary person or even a slightly shy child, they would probably be very disgusted with such scenes.

This afternoon, a small stall was set up in the square of Xumi City; this afternoon, a dessert called ice cream conquered the hearts of many Xumi City residents; this afternoon, the discipline officers who had to go here to maintain order once again witnessed "huge crowds of people" - the last time was when the airship of the Casazale caravan landed in Xumi City.

Amber had no intention of hiding the ice cream recipe. She even directly published the production method on a billboard, which was more conducive to gaining her fame. Besides, no normal person could make it easily without a freezer.

As the stall owner, Ah Ji was extremely busy. After a fellow card player recognized her identity, she even brought many fellow card players to come and take care of the business. Ah Ji believed from the bottom of her heart that if she was not Zhen Ling, she would definitely be exhausted to the point of fainting, and perhaps this was originally in Amber's plan.

"No wonder you don't want to sell it yourself!!!!" In between selling ice cream, Ah Ji shouted loudly to the sky. She had only taken a few bites of the small bucket of ice cream that belonged to her, which made Zhen Ling very angry!

The chaos in the square did not affect Amber. She made some ice cream, put it in a small freezer, and took the freezer directly to the Grand Bazaar.

Nashida, who is borrowing Catherine's body, has arrived here. After the initial finalization of the script and the role, Mr. Zubair set the time for the official performance to two months later. Today is the last day before tomorrow's official performance and also the time for the last rehearsal. Before this, Amber was busy with her own research, and Nashida often came here alone to participate in the activities.

Amber thought this was a good thing. Nashida had developed her own hobbies, made some friends here, and gained many insights in the process. The most important thing was that she learned to observe the world on her own initiative, which was the most important thing for the new god of wisdom.

"Ah, it's Sister Nefi!" The first one to discover Nefi was Nilu. She ran over quickly, like a flying red elf, with infinite youthful vitality in her light footsteps.

"Since little Nilu is free now, does that mean today's rehearsal is over?" Amber wanted to touch Nilu's head, but she had to give up because she was holding the freezer in her hands. Her arms were a little sore from walking all the way, and this thing was still very heavy.

"Yes, Master and several other actors are still resting. I finished my training earlier and have rested well." Nilu took Amber to the practice field. The actors had not had time to change out of their costumes yet and were sitting on the stools gasping for breath. After all, this was a full six-hour script, which consumed a huge amount of physical strength and energy. Even Master Nilu, who had the most physical strength, was gasping for breath. As the leading actress, she had the most scenes.

"Thank you all for your hard work. I brought some goodies. Come and try them." Amber greeted everyone present and opened the freezer door. Everyone looked at this novel object with curiosity, and Nashida even came over directly.

Amber handed the first portion to Nashida, then to Nilu, and then to everyone. In just a moment, everyone was intoxicated by the flavor of the ice cream.

Catherine is not a human being, she should be some kind of artificial life form, but she miraculously possesses all the senses that humans have, including taste, so Nashida can also taste the ice cream.

"It's delicious," Nashida said after trying it. "It's icy and refreshing, and it's very refreshing. The moment you take a sip, the coolness blooms on your tongue, along with a soft and mellow sweetness. It's like chocolate, but more refreshing."

"It's delicious! It's like ice elves dancing on the tip of your tongue!" Nilu's evaluation was a little more dreamy than Nashida's. She smiled brightly because she tasted the delicious food, and this happiness was well conveyed to everyone. For a moment, the tiredness and exhaustion dissipated along with the heat.

This is also the case with Nilu on weekdays. This girl is gentle and enthusiastic, simple and loves to laugh. Just as she looks, she is an elf who brings joy.

The official performance will start tomorrow, and Amber took this opportunity to conduct a "pre-war mobilization" with Sheikh. Everyone has been working hard for two months for the official performance, and their words showed their determination to win.

Chapter 53: Planning

"How do you feel today?" Amber sat on the chair, reading the letter in her hand. Aji sat next to her, but she was so tired from the whole afternoon that she almost collapsed on the chair.

According to the letter, her thesis was successfully approved and will be included in the academic contribution assessment at the end of the year as part of her academic research results. The patent for the refrigerant was also approved.

Each country in Teyvat has its own laws, which may differ in details but are generally similar. They are especially similar in terms of patents. In order to promote cooperation between countries, a country usually will not refuse to recognize patents recognized by another country.

"You still... huh - have the nerve to say that!" Ah Ji shook his arms weakly, and Amber smiled unscrupulously when she saw this. She was unwilling to go in person for this reason.

"Okay, okay, as compensation, I've prepared a big dish for you in the evening. I'm cooking it on high heat now." Amber looked towards the kitchen. On the stove was an iron pot with a whole chicken chopped into pieces by Amber, added with chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, some spices, many other ingredients, and a moderate amount of sugar to enhance the flavor. Upon hearing the news, Ah Ji instantly perked up.

"Really? Then... then I will reluctantly forgive you." Aji took the ice cream that she had placed on the table earlier and decided to spend the waiting time with ice cream before the main course was served.

"Have you forgotten something? Where is the contact information of the businessmen who came to seek cooperation today?" Amber looked at Aji unhappily. Aji then reacted and handed a small notebook from his pocket to Amber.

Amber took a quick look and found that there were about forty businessmen who were interested in this thing, but less than ten of them could give Amber a satisfactory reward. Further considering Amber's vision for the freezer - that is, to achieve large-scale mass production and popularization, then only three of them could do it.

One of these three people is from the Casazale Caravan. Unfortunately, Amber does not intend to hand over the freezer to the Casazale Caravan. Casazale has already shown a tendency to dominate the market in Xumi - not to mention that after a new batch of date wine is brewed and officially sold to the forest, this is not good for the overall environment. Amber plans to sell the freezer and the refrigerant manufacturing method to another wealthy businessman. It is best for consumers to have multiple checks and balances.

"Aji, do you remember this wealthy businessman?" Amber's finger lightly tapped a contact number on the paper. Seeing this, Aji thought for a moment.

"I remember that this was a businessman from Liyue. He said that he had the support of Tianquan Star, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, so compensation was definitely not a problem. He said that as long as the patent for the refrigerant could be sold to him, the price would be negotiable." Aji thought. The businessman was very excited at the time, and Aji didn't understand why he was so excited.

"Tianquan Star?... Interesting." Amber's lips curled slightly. Although she knew that as she slowly extended her hands into business, she would most likely be in contact with the richest businessman among the seven countries, she didn't expect to meet him so soon - she just didn't know what kind of relationship this person had with Tianquan Star.

"Aji, tomorrow you will give him a message on my behalf, saying that I can sell the patent to them, but I don't intend to do a one-time deal. Instead, it will be more like a cooperative arrangement. The refrigerant patent will belong to the other party, and I will take 20% of the net profit." Amber thought for a moment and gave an answer. The greatest value of this thing is not in the freezer, but in its use as a coolant in industry. The businessman was so eager to buy the patent, he must have seen this clearly.

Although Amber herself does not really need Mora, expanding the Chi Nian clan's base into a small city will definitely require a lot of Mora, which needs to be prepared in advance.

"Well, will the other party really agree to this?" Aji seemed a little unsure. Currently, most of the sales of patents are one-time deals, and situations like what Amber said rarely exist. In most cases, merchants also reject this kind of transaction - this means that they will earn a lot less Mora.

"Since the other party has seen this clearly, they will not refuse. 20% is a very large number based on such a huge base, but it is still an acceptable price. However, if the refrigerant does not reach their hands in the end, this will be a real big loss." Amber seemed quite sure about this. She chose this businessman specifically for this reason.

"Okay, I'll tell him." After thinking about it carefully, Ah Ji felt that it shouldn't be a big deal. Anyway, it couldn't be worse than this afternoon. God could see that she, a town spirit, was exhausted!

Amber nodded and kept an eye on the time. Dinner would be ready in a few minutes, and Aji once again focused on the ice cream in his hand.

Amber looked at the letter in her hand that had been read, thinking about something in her heart. The House of Lords had an interesting rule. If the paper she submitted was confirmed to participate in the academic contribution review at the end of the year, then the right to use everything involved in the paper in academic research would belong to the House of Lords. After that, any scholar under the name of the House of Lords could apply to continue to delve into certain papers in order to study new things, and the scholars participating in the evaluation would also receive different levels of assets according to their contributions.

This regulation is very helpful in avoiding taking a detour in the pursuit of knowledge, and also in avoiding wasting too much time on unnecessary interests.

But speaking of Tianquanxing... Amber doesn't know how far the current Tianquanxing has come in business. If you look at it from a small perspective, this wealthy businessman may only have a little bit of relationship with him, but if you look at it from a big perspective, he might be Tianquanxing's assistant in developing downlines. Then, she must have people in other countries as well.

This is not surprising. Liyue is the top commercial country, and Tianquanxing in it is naturally the richest businessman in the whole of Teyvat. It is natural that it can extend its hands to other countries.

"It seems... we'll have to make contact later."

As Ah Ji waited anxiously, the big dish was finally served on the table. After being cooked over high heat, the flavors of various spices and seasonings were well integrated into the chicken. He could taste the best flavor in every bite, and Ah Ji was very happy eating it.

The task of washing dishes after dinner naturally fell on Aji. Amber had previously borrowed some books from the library. After dinner, she read for another hour, and this busy day came to an end.

……

"Hasn't the guy from yesterday arrived at the square yet?" In front of the hotel in Xumi City, a wealthy businessman from Liyue listened to the report from his subordinates. It was already 10 o'clock in the morning and the weather was getting hot. Logically, the stall from yesterday should have appeared.

The wealthy businessman is a businessman funded by Ningguang of Tianquan Star. He leads Ningguang's subordinates to go to other countries as members to take root and develop their businesses in other countries, so as to expand the commercial influence of Tianquan Star and even the entire Liyue.

The wealthy businessman with a solid backing had absolute confidence and could buy it directly even if the other party offered a very high price. However, there were too many businessmen who extended olive branches yesterday, so he directly brought out the name of Liyue Tianquan Star to seize the chance of winning.

Even so, he still felt it was not safe, so he sent people to the square to check again.

"No, and there are some people waiting there today." The rich businessman's subordinates were reporting, and his words were full of worry. This is Xumi. Even if his boss brought out a big backer, others might be more inclined to choose local businessmen. Everything is hard to say until the results come out.

"This thing is too important. If we can get it, it will allow merchants stationed in Fontaine to gain a firm foothold. It will be of great help to Lord Tianquanxing's plan. We must get it no matter what. You should go again."

"Yeah!" The rich businessman's subordinate nodded, and without even drinking a sip of water, he hurried to the square again, but this time he stopped after a few steps.

——Yesterday afternoon, the white-haired little girl stall owner who looked underage at first glance was walking towards this side. It seemed that her target was them. The rich businessman obviously noticed all this. He hurriedly signaled to the waiter to serve some dishes to show his sincerity.

"Miss Naila, you're here." The wealthy businessman took the initiative to pour a cup of tea. "My last name is Li Liang. You can call me Li Liang or Mr. Li. You came in a hurry today. I'm sorry I couldn't prepare it in time. The delicious food will be here later."

"Ah, no need to be so formal. I'm just delivering a message on behalf of my sister." Ah Ji sat down on the chair, swinging his legs habitually. "She said she was happy to see someone so knowledgeable and she's willing to establish a partnership with you."

"Cooperation..." The wealthy businessman immediately understood the deeper meaning behind the words. He frowned slightly, "It's an honor to work with such a talented person. However, as Liyue merchants, we prefer a little more freedom in our business. For this, we are willing to offer more compensation."

"But this is an unchangeable 'prerequisite', not something that can be negotiated." Ah Ji took a small sip from her teacup, sticking out her tongue imperceptibly—as expected, she really wasn't used to drinking tea. "Sister said she's agreed to sell you the refrigerant patent, but it's not a one-time deal, but more of a 'cooperative arrangement,' and she'll take 20% of the net profits."

"It's just a commission..." The wealthy businessman fell into deep thought. He was weighing the pros and cons. Now was the important pioneering period of Lord Tianquanxing's plan. If there was such a thing to support it, it would be very beneficial to the development of Fontainebleau and could directly play a decisive role - this benefit was not inferior to the benefits brought by the thing itself.

"You can take your time to think about it. I'm not in that hurry." Ah Ji gave the rich businessman enough time to think. Since Amber was not afraid that the other party would not take the bait, she naturally had nothing to be afraid of. She could just enjoy the food.

The rich businessman continued thinking until Ah Ji finished his meal. Compared with the rich businessman's serious look, Ah Ji did not look like he was here to discuss business. It seemed more like he was here simply to eat and drink.

"—Please tell your sister that we accept her proposal. Please also leave your address. We will send the contract to her shortly, and we will both sign it at that time."

"Then I wish you a pleasant cooperation." A Ji drank the fruit tea in one gulp and extended his hand to the rich businessman.

The wealthy businessman shook Ah Ji's hand and said calmly, "It's a pleasure to work with you."

Chapter 54: Performance

"Hey? You want to join our brigade? Then show your 'sincerity' first. You know what sincerity is, right?" On the stage of the Grand Bazaar, the actor who plays the member of the Gilded Brigade said to Nilu who plays the protagonist. This is a very early scene in the script, and it is also the first "fall" that the protagonist will experience, and it is the beginning of the protagonist's downfall.
