Keqing looked at Lin Ze expectantly, waiting for the "unless" he was about to say.
With those words, didn't that mean she might have a chance to get a Geo Archon clay statue of the same quality in the future?
"Unless I'm in a good mood, I might make one for you for free."
Originally, Lin Ze wanted to get some special privileges from Keqing, but after thinking about it.
He was already under Ningguang's observation, and already had the right to do things with ease, so he simply changed his wording.
"Good mood?"
Lin Ze had just casually changed his wording, but Keqing frowned.
She didn't believe in the concept of a "good mood," but Keqing quickly understood.
This "good mood" was just a euphemism, a way of asking for a favor.
"As long as it doesn't harm Liyue, I can help you to a certain extent.
How about I help you once? Make a clay figure? You only need a little bit of earth and water anyway."
After some thought, Keqing made the promise.
Keqing knew that when Ningguang came to her senses, she would also help Lin Ze to some degree.
She even knew that Lin Ze probably already guessed it.
But the fact that she said it first changed everything.
"Alright," Lin Ze didn't refuse.
As for what Keqing said, that he only needed to provide a little water and earth?
Lin Ze inwardly scoffed. He'd made the figurine right in front of Keqing.
Keqing was still willing to trade for a luxurious villa, which showed she still recognized the figurine's value.
"By the way, this is a figurine, not a clay sculpture. The materials and craftsmanship are different, don't get them mixed up."
Finally, Lin Ze added a sentence.
Then, he waved his hand, and after Keqing put away the figurine, he sent her off.
Standing in front of the luxurious villa, looking at the closed door, Keqing sighed.
She opened the diary copy, waiting for it to update, and ran towards Yujing Terrace. She planned to ask Ganyu to go to the Jade Chamber with her.
As for how Lin Ze knew she liked the Geo Archon's clay figure and even made a figure of it…
She already had the answer the moment she saw the words "Genshin Impact" on the diary copy.
It was definitely the information leaked by that plane projection.
Soon, Keqing and Ganyu arrived at the Jade Chamber. Ningguang and Yelan were already waiting.
However, even though some time had passed, Ningguang's face still wore an irrepressible smile.
"What's wrong with Ningguang?"
Looking at Ningguang, who hadn't stopped smiling since they entered the room, Keqing turned to Yelan beside her.
"She's been like this ever since Lin Ze left. It seems that even though she only got forty percent, Ningguang still made a killing."
Yelan casually tossed a dice, answering with a hint of boredom.
On the way back from Wangshu Inn, Ningguang was still somewhat restrained. But once they were back at the Jade Chamber, she dropped the act entirely.
Keqing had never seen Ningguang smile so brightly.
"What's she so happy about? Lin Ze hasn't even revealed anything else yet."
Hearing this, Keqing also pursed her lips, feeling that Ningguang was being a bit too happy too soon.
When Lin Ze would actually start bringing things from other worlds to improve their lives was still unknown. And yet, she was already this ecstatic.
"Didn't you get a little ahead of yourself?"
"There's no rush. It takes time to gradually build a team, choose a location, and construct a factory.
And, we need to be wary of talents from other nations, especially the Fatui.
Where did Lin Ze end up living?"
Ningguang casually waved her hand, not feeling she was getting ahead of herself; she felt everything was just right.
"He bought that house near Yujing Terrace directly."
"Lin Ze sold thirty sets of clothes today, earning six million Mora. Even at half price, he wouldn't be able to afford it, right?"
Keqing frowned, looking at Yelan with surprise, before a look of understanding dawned on her face.
"How much was the difference? I'll cover it for you."
Ningguang reacted quickly, figuring Keqing hadn't offered a fifty percent discount, but something even lower.
"…I won't hide it from you any longer; it's practically guaranteed to be exposed sooner or later.
He used this to exchange."
With that, Keqing produced a two-meter-tall Geo Archon figure.
Instantly, Ningguang and Yelan, even Ganyu, were captivated.
It was simply exquisite!
"I recall you don't care for these. Would you be willing to sell it to me?"
Looking Lin Ze up and down, Ningguang spoke directly.
As everyone knows, in Liyue, there are only fans of the Geo Archon and twisted fans of the Geo Archon. The only hater is the Geo Archon himself.
"Not for sale! Do you think I'd just give it away?
I actually like collecting these things for self-reflection. I won't sell them, no matter what."
As she spoke, Keqing put away the Geo Archon figure, but still found an excuse for herself.
[Living in a villa is awesome! One figure (image.jpg) for a luxury villa (image.jpg). How many people throughout history can do business like me?] [It's like Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one willing to fight, the other willing to suffer~] [I wonder if Dori from Sumeru has a copy of this. If she does, she'll probably cry from envy, right?]
"Waaaah, don't talk about it anymore, I'm already crying!"
"I don't know why they call a clay figure a figure, but trading one for a luxury villa... why doesn't that happen to me?"
"Mora! My Mora!"
Looking at the contents of the diary, Dori burst into tears. She was truly envious, crying her eyes out.
Why couldn't she ever get a deal like that!
"This craftsmanship, this workmanship... I wonder if I could commission him to make a statue of the Raiden Shogun...
It's a pity Inazuma is under the Sakoku Decree."
Kujou Sara was envious, very envious. Why wasn't Lin Ze in Inazuma?
Otherwise, she might have had a chance to get a statue of the Raiden Shogun with the same craftsmanship!
[There's still plenty of time, write more.]
[When communicating with the Tianquan Ningguang, I find that sometimes my DNA is unconsciously triggered, and I say things that seem meaningless to them.]
[Then why not, using this diary, bring the memes from before my transmigration into Teyvat?]
[Should I create a meme encyclopedia? Or, just bring over works from before I transmigrated?]
[Wait, I remember the Tianquan Ningguang said that if they don't understand something in the diary, a mysterious power will emerge, allowing them to understand.]
[Then why don't I just take advantage of the system?]
[That settles it, I'll use the system. Thinking about it, the system isn't completely useless, after all~]
"Have you met with Tianquan Ningguang already? I wonder how the negotiations in Liyue are going…
Tell Tartaglia to speed things up, and contact Lin Ze as soon as possible."
"Since you've already met with Ningguang, perhaps you could write a letter.
No, Lisa, could I trouble you to go to Liyue in person?"
"Oh my, what a splendid performance. Liyue can't have all the advantages…
Looks like I still need to go see Raiden Ei."
