This MC is so original

Although Tartaglia was puzzled, she nodded. "That's right. Mr. Lu Xiu, do you have any other ideas?"

Lu Xiu took out the Seal of the Liyue Seven Stars given to him by Keqing from his backpack. This was given to Lu Xiu by Keqing specifically so that he could get help from local people when he encountered trouble in other countries. Although Lu Xiu had never used it, he still kept it in his backpack.

"Could this mark represent the Seven Stars of Liyue?"

Tartaglia took a look and nodded affirmatively: "That's of course no problem, but..."

"But what?"

"However, the Liyue Seven Stars would never do such a thing, and I don't know if those people would agree..."

In Liyue, the Liyue Seven Stars hate these traffickers to the core and will kill them whenever they see them, never mind personally participating in this kind of trade.

"Let's try it first. You take me there, and then you don't show up. I'll try it alone. If it doesn't work, you can still implement another plan."

"it is good."

After finalizing the method, Tartaglia took Lu Xiu to a corner. Not far from the corner was a particularly large cabin. Four burly waiters were guarding the door of the cabin.

Dartalia pointed at the four people and said to Lu Xiu, "These four people are the waiters who verify the identity of the guests. You just need to find them and give it a try."

Lu Xiu immediately walked out and came to the four people.

The waiter immediately reached out to stop Lu Xiu and looked him over with scrutiny: "What's the matter?"

Lu Xiu took out the seal of the Liyue Seven Stars and said to the four people, "I'm hungry."

The four of them were stunned when they saw the seal of the Liyue Seven Stars in Lu Xiu's hand, and then angry expressions appeared on their faces.

The Liyue Seven Stars have caused them a lot of losses, and now they have sneaked onto the ship and appeared openly!

Just as the four of them were about to call for help, Lu Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Could it be that you despise the status of the guests? There's no way anyone would have a problem with Mora, right?"

Lu Xiu casually pulled out a sack that was half a person's height from his backpack and threw it out. It hit a waiter's foot hard, causing him to scream in pain.

The others were about to get angry, but when they saw the golden luster emanating from the open mouth of the sack, the angry expressions on their faces suddenly changed and were replaced by eager smiles.

"Please come in, sir."

Lu Xiu was right. They would not go with Mora. As long as Mora was given to them, let alone you being one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, even if you were the Prince of Rock, they would not dare to invite you in.

Lu Xiu raised his chin and nodded, then waved behind him. Tartaglia immediately ran to Lu Xiu with an eager look on his face.

"This is my servant. I need someone to serve me. Is this reasonable?"

"Reasonable, reasonable!"

If the master of the Liyue Seven Stars did not carry a servant with him, they would find it unreasonable.

The four people on the ship all remembered that Lu Xiu boarded the ship as [cargo]. Now thinking back, the Liyue Seven Stars openly hated them to the core, so this high-level Liyue Seven Stars wanted to get involved, so he deliberately concealed his identity and boarded the ship as [cargo]. Perhaps it was to avoid being discovered by the other Liyue Seven Stars?

As expected of the Seven Stars of Liyue, they are extremely intelligent!

Soon, the four waiters made way and let Lu Xiu and the others in.

As soon as they entered the cabin, Lu Xiu and Tartaglia were shocked by the magnificent decoration inside.

Tartaglia even muttered quietly, "I didn't expect it to be so shabby outside, but it's decorated like a palace inside, tsk tsk."

"After all, it's for the 'big guys' to use."

Lu Xiu took a few glances and then took Tartaglia to an empty table and sat down.

In order to maintain his status, Tartaglia stood obediently behind Lu Xiu like a servant and did not sit down.

At this time, [dinner] had not yet started, and Lu Xiu took this opportunity to open the small map and began to observe the "big shots" who had arrived around him.

His use of the identity tokens of the Liyue Seven Stars might cause some trouble to Keqing. Now he recorded the names of the "bigwigs" from various countries who dared to participate in this kind of business, and sent them to Keqing later, asking her to use this information to exchange for benefits from other countries as compensation.

Not long after Lu Xiu finished recording the names of these "big shots", a woman dressed as a chef came in pushing a food cart with a lid on it.

The chef pushed the dining cart onto the stage and then opened the lid of the cart. What was underneath was actually a menu.

The other 'guests' were not surprised by this, but looked at the female chef on the stage with great anticipation.

The cook picked up the menu, bowed slightly to the people below, and then opened the first page of the menu.

There was a photo of a girl on it, who had obviously been carefully dressed up and photographed.

"Well, our dinner is about to begin. Please prepare your orders, distinguished guests. The first appetizer starts at one mora, and the minimum bid is one mora each time."

Chapter 291: Tartaglia is anxious

"Well, our dinner is about to begin. Please prepare your orders, distinguished guests. The first appetizer starts at one mora, and the minimum bid is one mora each time."

Standing behind Lu Xiu with a respectful look on his face, Tartaglia immediately handed Lu Xiu a card and whispered something in his ear.

"Mr. Lu Xiu, you spent quite a bit of money bribing those waiters earlier. You were doing me a favor, and I can't let you bear this financial burden alone. This is our Fatui executive's operational bank card. All operational expenses will be reimbursed. Spend as much as you want!"

Lu Xiu looked at the scene in front of him and nodded with satisfaction: "You are thoughtful."

Immediately, Lu Xiu turned around and raised his right hand towards the cook on the stage: "One hundred million Mora."

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell into a strange silence, and then there was an uproar.

The cook on the stage also felt that she might have heard it wrong, and couldn't help but ask: "Sir, you mean Duo Shao?!"

Tartaglia mechanically turned his neck, his mouth twitching uncontrollably, and asked Lu Xiu, "Mr. Lu Xiu, you must have said something wrong just now, right? You definitely said it wrong, right? You wanted to bid one Mora, right? That's not allowed. The rules say that you have to add at least one Mora to the base price."

Lu Xiu rolled his eyes speechlessly at Tartaglia. Wasn't this guy a martial artist? How could he even misunderstand what he was saying?

"One hundred million Mora, you heard it right."

Lu Xiu repeated the sentence again, which made everyone present look at Lu Xiu in surprise, and then looked at the photo shown by the cook on the stage. The girl in the photo had a pretty face, but was not stunningly beautiful.

How could someone be willing to spend a hundred million Mora for a girl like this?!

After a brief moment of shock, the cook auctioneer on the stage immediately picked up the small wooden hammer and knocked it lightly.

"One hundred million for the first time."

"One hundred million for the second time."

"One hundred million for the third time. Congratulations to this gentleman! Deal!"

The cook's face was full of joy. She didn't care whether the other party called the wrong name or not. As long as she could make money, she didn't worry that Lu Xiu wouldn't be able to pay.

The ship is now sailing on the sea, hundreds of kilometers away from the nearest port. If Lu Xiu doesn't take out Mora, he will be unable to escape.

When Tartaglia saw that the deal was done, he covered his chest in pain and couldn't help feeling a pang of heart pain.

He didn't spend so much Mora when he was collecting intelligence from Zhongli in Liyue. Just Lu Xiu's shouting cost him much more than all the tasks he had performed in his life!

Tartaglia looked at Lu Xiu with a heartbroken expression, but she didn't want to turn against him. She could only give him a careful reminder.

"Mr. Lu Xiu, it's enough to just do this once to show your presence. Can we bid normally for the rest?"

Lu Xiu glanced at Tartaglia with disdain. "You're not spending your own money. This money belongs to the Fatui. What's my relationship with the Fatui? You should know that, right?"

Tartaglia was in tears. Although the card was indeed filled with the Fatui's money, if the organization felt the expenditure was unreasonable after he returned to submit his mission report, they would deduct the money from his salary! In the end, wouldn't it still be his money?

Just when Tartaglia was still thinking about how to convince Lu Xiu, the cook on the stage turned to the next page of the menu. There was also a photo on it. The girl in the photo had a more charming look on her face than the previous one.

The cook was just about to state the lowest price when she saw Lu Xiu impatiently raising his right hand.

"One hundred million."

"Mr. Duo?!" The cook and Tartaglia were stunned again.

The cook quickly reacted, picked up the small wooden hammer again, and knocked it three times quickly as if she was afraid that Lu Xiu would go back on his word. Finally, she announced that the transaction was successful.

Tartaglia almost fell down, but luckily she reached out and pressed the back of the chair where Lu Xiu was sitting, otherwise she would have been frightened by Lu Xiu's astonishing bid and sat down on the ground.

Compared to Tartaglia's tearful expression, the expressions on the faces of the other guests around her seemed a little strange.

A few people looked surprised, but more were displeased.

If Lu Xiu continues to shout like this, won’t they not be able to buy any this time?

Why did they suffer so much on this wrecked ship? Wasn't it just to buy a few to take back with them?

As a result, I now encounter such a tough guy.

Lu Xiu looked at everyone around him with a cold gaze, and noticed that something was wrong with their emotions, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

He never expected that he would actually have the opportunity to experience what it was like to be a city dragon king.

As the third 'dish' was turned over by the cook, the other bidders did not rush to bid, but turned to look at Lu Xiu.

As expected, Lu Xiu raised his right hand shakily, but Tartaglia's hand was faster than his.

"Dimora!"

Tartaglia named the price before Lu Xiu.

The cook and other bidders on the stage knew that Tartaglia was Lu Xiu's servant, so they thought that this was Lu Xiu's intention. Except for the cook who frowned, the others sneered in disdain.

You’ve pretended twice, but you can’t do it this time?

Lu Xiu turned to Tartaglia unhappily and asked, "What do you mean?"

Tartaglia said with a wry smile, "Master Lu..., the first two times you demonstrated your strength to everyone were enough. There's no need to show it every time, right?"

Lu Xiu fumed, "But if you bid like that, how will everyone think? People who don't know me might think I only have 200 million! Only those who play around would bid hundreds of thousands, millions, or tens of millions. Real men bid in the hundreds of millions!"

Then Lu Xiu shouted to the cook on the stage, "My servant just didn't understand. I'm going to shout again: 1 billion!"

Anyway, it’s not my Mora, so I don’t feel bad about spending it.

Tartaglia was almost frightened to death. He stretched out his hand to press down Lu Xiu's raised right hand, but no matter how much strength he used, Lu Xiu's hand remained motionless.

In the end, Tartaglia had no choice but to give up.

The cook on the stage was shocked and immediately picked up the small wooden hammer.

"The first time in a billion."

"One billion for the second time."

"One billion third..."

"Wait a moment!"

Tartaglia suddenly spoke up to stop the cook from swinging the hammer for the third time.

The cook looked at Tartaglia with displeasure. How could a servant be so arrogant?

If it wasn't for Lu Xiu's sake, if anyone dared to disrupt the auction, she would have called someone to throw him out to feed the fish.

The cook suppressed her displeasure and asked, "What do you want?"

Tartaglia raised his hands, and two water elemental blades appeared in his palms, with a hint of madness on his face.

"I'm laying my cards on the table. I'm done pretending. Everyone, just surrender!"

Chapter 292 Tartaglia: It’s broken, I’ve become a substitute

The cook was stunned at first, then turned to look at Lu Xiu with a questioning look.

Lu Xiu just casually sat on the chair and stretched his body, then said to Tartaglia lightly: "I won't take action."

Tartaglia grinned and said, "It's okay, leave it all to me. Give me ten seconds."

After saying that, Tartaglia turned into a stream of light and swung his two swords quickly past the crowd. All the bodyguards brought with them by the bidders were immediately killed by him. The splattering blood was perfectly controlled by Tartaglia and not a drop fell near Lu Xiu.

Seeing that things were not going well, the cook on the stage immediately pressed the emergency button. Soon a large number of sailors rushed in from outside and swarmed towards Tartaglia.

"Just in time!"

Tartaglia rushed forward with a grim smile. He left quickly and came back just as quickly.

With a swish, Tartaglia slid along the floor all the way to Lu Xiu's feet.

Lu Xiu raised his eyebrows and kicked Tartaglia beside him with his toes: "Why are you back?"

Tartaglia covered his aching chest and coughed a few times: "It was a mistake."

When he looked up again, he saw three burly sailors in front of the group of sailors wearing Water God's Eyes on their waists.

"This is a passionate combined attack from the three of us brothers! You are no match for us!"

Tartaglia curled his lips in disdain, and immediately used the Demon King's Armament. The running thunder pierced holes in the surrounding cabins one after another. Fortunately, the high position did not cause the hull to leak.

"Humph, they are just three scoundrels!"
