Genshin, but the real world

90 Chapter 89 - Fishing
Liyue has no basis for establishing the king-like system.

Even if slavery is not needed as a support, the environment here does not have such a foundation.

For thousands of years, the city has been governed by seven stars, and people are used to the pattern of seven stars and eight sects.

Of course, habits can be changed.

But it will cost more than expected, and most importantly, Ningguang wants more than that.

She is so greedy.

Jiang Qing's complexion changed slightly.

He thought Ning Guang was an excellent businessman.

Although such people are greedy, they will also spread out their bargaining chips.

But unexpectedly, she was unwilling to share... Maybe power is such a thing.

People are willing to share wealth in order to earn more wealth.

And few are willing to share power.

Names and utensils are the only things, not fake people!
In short, Ningguang's attitude was beyond Jiang Qing's expectations.

This matter should have been spread, as if the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce would find its own allies, deliver benefits, and invite the other party to stand on its side.

Ningguang should also make such a choice.

But she refused.

Jiang Qing was a little surprised, but didn't care.

In any case, this matter is already a thing of the past for him.

Even if something goes wrong, Jiang Qing doesn't need to be responsible for it.

The desire of the human heart and his powerlessness, if he can control the desire, there is no need to take risks to participate in the fight for divine power.

To some extent he is more greedy than Ningguang.

Ningguang wants power, and he wants to hold up the scepter of the gods in the future.

Of course Yelan didn't know that Jiang Qing had so many thoughts.

She also really thinks that there is nothing wrong with Ning Guang's idea.

It's not that there is no plan. If it really doesn't work, then find another way.

It's just that there's no need to use the plan with the worst result from the beginning... The so-called worst result is naturally to share the scepter with others.

"Tianquan Xing has the idea of ​​retiring."

This is Ye Lan's opening remarks.

"It is indeed time for him to end at this age. If he continues to stay in front of the stage, his body and energy are limited, and some people will have to continue to wait."

The work of Qixing needs to be handled seriously.

Even if he doesn't work like a madman every day like Keqing, for an old man, he really can't bear the tedious work at this age.

It’s okay to ask him to think about it and give directions, but it’s a bit hurtful to ask him to complete a plan and suggestions.

And under him, there are quite a few reserve soldiers who have been waiting for a long time.

How can there be a 30-year-old prince in the world?

He has been sitting in this position, and the people below can only stay here.

Jiang Qing nodded repeatedly, expressing that she could understand.

Ye Lan thought about it and said, "If it wasn't for the death of the God of Rock, the news that Uncle Tian wanted to retire would have already spread."

He wants to retire, but certainly not just quitting.

This also requires preparation and time.

Sadly, it was during this time that Morax passed away.

The matter of Tianshu Star is also considered a major event, but compared with Morax, it is an insignificant matter.

Liyue has been in existence for 700 years, and the number of times the seven stars have changed is difficult to measure.

The death of the gods...but this time.

"If he wants to retire, does he have someone to recommend?" Jiang Qing was also curious, "Who did he recommend? Who did you pick?"

The news that Tianshuxing is going to retire is no longer a secret at this time, it's just that it hasn't spread.

I'm afraid Seven Stars has already made arrangements.

"He recommended Zhiyi." Ye Lan said calmly, "Zhiyi is his student."

Not surprising.

"Uncle Tian personally trained Zhiyi. It is not surprising that he would recommend Zhiyi during this period."

Later, Uncle Tian also said that Yelan would take over his position, but Yelan didn't take it seriously, she just took it as a joke.

This can only be a joke.

"So you're following Zhiyi?" Jiang Qing tutted, "It sounds like he's pretty unlucky."

What's even more unfortunate is that, according to Yelan's subsequent personal tasks, Zhiyi may have already made a choice during this period.

In other words, he had just cooperated with the Fools, but Ye Lan, who was found by Ning Guang, was following him.

And the culprit was... Jiang Qing who made a suggestion?

"I found out, he cooperated with the Fools." Ye Lan was a little annoyed.

This is only the initial stage of cooperation, and the confidentiality measures on Fool's side are very "average".

They come into contact with people like Zhiyi every year.

It's as if the dignitaries of ancient dynasties would specially open schools to attract famous reading seeds.

Not every seed can be rewarded, but as long as one seed ascends to a high position, ten years of hard work will be rewarded for a hundred years.

The reason why Yelan was depressed was that Zhiyi's reason for surrendering was too simple.

"You have already found out, what else can you say?" Jiang Qing didn't quite understand, "Tell Uncle Tian about this."

"He wants to keep his good student, so he compromises."

"He doesn't want to keep it, he just wants to get rid of the relationship, so he has to admit this favor."

In a few days, maybe Uncle Tian will find out by himself. You have already got the evidence, so you will directly slap your face.

"It's not about this..."

Ye Lan sighed, "Do you know about the seven-star election?"

"How many people are bidding?" Jiang Qing answered casually.

How dare you say it...
"It's almost counted." Ye Lan couldn't refute, "Compared to anyone who might participate, Zhiyi's background is actually good."

"Uncle Tian has only one student, and he has no son."

"If he has to identify an heir, this person must be Zhiyi."

Students of this age are learning the ideas and ideas of their teachers. Even if there are innovations in the future, it will be a matter of the future.

At least for now, Zhiyi is definitely Uncle Tian's best successor.

Uncle Tian only had one daughter, and he couldn't help his own daughter or son-in-law to the throne, so he had no choice but Zhiyi.

"But Zhiyi doesn't think so." Ye Lan looked at Jiang Qing, "He has very similar thoughts to yours, and he doesn't want to pin his hopes on anyone."

"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense." Jiang Qing teased, "If I have a teacher who is a seven-star teacher, I will definitely keep his thighs and cry poor every day."

"Do you think that everyone likes to start from scratch, and likes to be unarmed?"

Do not believe in external forces?
Brother, you must first have external force available.

There is nothing available, so what are you talking about walking alone... Isn't this the only way left to go alone, so you have to choose?
"This matter is easy to say." Jiang Qing thought for a while, "He doesn't believe in Uncle Tian. He will help him, but he will be crushed to death."

"That's why he looks for the external force of fools."

As for what to do with the external forces looking for fools, Ye Lan didn't say anything, but she felt that Jiang Qing should understand.

A person who is expected to inherit the Tianshu star, why are fools cooperating with him?

Nothing more than a political investment.

Jiang Qing understood Zhiyi to a certain extent, but he did not have the right to forgive him, nor did he want to.

To some extent, Zhiyi's image is not complicated.

When he was caught by Ye Lan in the future, his original words were simple and direct, "I used disgraceful means, I don't deny that. But with my background, there is no other way, right?"

This is a very sympathetic statement.

It simply expresses an unlucky child who has been poor since childhood and wants to become a master by any means.

In an era of class solidification, his means are wrong, but his purpose is beyond reproach.

But in the country of Liyue, not only his means were wrong, but his intentions were also wrong.

Because this country is far from reaching the point where it will give all capable people a chance to perform, rather than just looking at their surname to determine a person's life.

Fairness and justice will continue to be maintained during the time when Morax has just passed away, and even Seven Star already knows that he is still alive and is only observing in secret.

Gaining power is not the only way to use disgraceful means. In front of Zhiyi, there is another star shining brightly.

To some extent, Ningguang's prestige comes from people like Zhiyi.

In their eyes, Ning Guang, who also came from an ordinary person, was able to become a Seven Star, which really gave them all a hope.

Zhiyi is also walking on this road.

He sees very far, but unfortunately, he sees too far, but the only thing missing is a little intelligence.

In the early stages of dynasty or country change and reconstruction, various resources are often redistributed due to wars.

The dignitaries of this period have already begun to try to squeeze the people, but they don't need to squeeze to death yet.

Because the radish pit in this period is far from being filled.

In the mid-term, the aristocratic families that should have appeared in this period also appeared, and their positions were basically fixed, and everyone began to plunder to the death.

The end is the end of destruction.

Liyue has established the country for so long, but it has always remained at the initial stage, even purer than the early stage of the dynasty, because of Morax.

He is a great god who has no desire for all the benefits that human beings can produce, and the only requirement is that they live well.

In His eyes, dignitaries, aristocrats, and aristocratic families are no different from ordinary people.

Whoever can contribute more to this country is qualified to be in charge.

Even if he had achieved this level, he still had to compromise with the clan who had taken the advantage in advance.

Because the latter is easier than ordinary people to cultivate talents suitable for Liyue.

He can destroy a round, but there will still be pioneers who will occupy the interests and eventually become the head of the family.

During this period, His rule was effective, at least ordinary people like Condensed Light still had a chance to become Seven Stars.

But he died.

Not only is Morax dead, even the immortals have left Liyue Port.

It is easy to see too far.

He grew up in a poor family and came to the current position of power, so he knows best the importance of family background.

These can be adjusted while Morax is around, but there must be compromises.

He is gone?
After the gods are gone, and all the choices are handed over to humans, will he really have a chance to be in power?
Emotionally, Zhiyi believes in this country. In fact, his personal growth experience tells him that he still has to rely on himself.

It's a pity that he fell at this point.

He never expected that Morax was not dead, he was still observing Qixing behind the scenes.

He arranged a funeral for himself, but told Qixing in a dream that he was still alive. This was pure deterrence.

I give you the power to govern this country, but with that power comes responsibility.

Holding the power but failing to do good things, Morax could not do anything, but Liyue's immortal was fine.

Zhongli had this attitude in the morning, and if Mandrill failed to send the person who did something wrong to the Hall of Death at noon, it would be considered that he was not good at business.

"It's not complicated, is it?"

Jiang Qing skipped this topic that was not easy to talk about, "So why did you pull me on?"

"Catch big fish with a long line." Ye Lan said softly.

Jiang Qing: "..."

He was startled, "Hey, don't you want to take this opportunity to drag Tianshu Xing into trouble?"

"It's unlikely." Ye Lan denied the statement, "If he found out about it himself, Zhiyi might have a chance."

"But if I found out, Zhiyi's pawn would have to be discarded."

It's not surprising that they train their own students to be superior and inherit their own ideas.

And after Zhiyi came to power, he would always appease Uncle Tian's blood descendants, which was also part of the question.

What kind of return Zhiyi can provide determines how much Uncle Tian is willing to pay.

After all, he was only cooperating with fools, and he hadn't reached the point of being poisoned.

However, it was Ye Lan who discovered this.

Being caught by Ye Lan meant that no matter how far Zhiyi went in the future, he would have to be restrained by Ye Lan.

Uncle Tian is unlikely to continue to train such a student.

Even if it was purely by accident and coincidence that he was finally caught by Ye Lan.

"You don't want to cooperate with Zhiyi?" Jiang Qing teased with a smile, "If you help him, he must be the future Tianshu star."

"It's a good deal for a seven-star."

Ye Lan glanced at him, "It's hard to say whether there will be a Seven Star position in the future."

"As long as I reach an alliance with him in any sense, the evidence in my hand will not prove his mistake, but prove my mistake."

If you think you can handle Zhiyi with the evidence and ask him to cooperate with your own interests, you are very wrong.

For this kind of thing, if he cooperates with you once, everyone will no longer be subordinate, but equal accomplices.

Guide a person to make mistakes and seek benefits from it, and the guide will also pay the price for it.

"I understand." Jiang Qing nodded, "Tell Uncle Tian in exchange for Uncle Tian's cooperation."

"Ignore Zhiyi and continue fishing for fools."

"It's really greedy."

If you don’t want this or that, you want more.

"It's good that you know." Ye Lan smiled, "How should I say, which opponent do you choose?"

"I will definitely choose the most difficult opponent." Jiang Qing also laughed, "I owe you a favor, and I will definitely not leave the most troublesome one to you."

"I'll take care of Zhiyi."

The most difficult thing is to get Uncle Tian to cooperate.

But Yelan was backed by Ningguang, and she had been in Liyue for a long time. Jiang Qing's advantage in this aspect was not as good as Uncle Tian's.

On the contrary, Zhiyi, Jiang Qing still has a little intelligence advantage.

"Well, you call this troublesome and tricky?" Ye Lan raised her eyebrows, "I thought you would pick Uncle Tian."

"I've already passed that stage." Jiang Qing replied casually, "If it's a business, only at the beginning will you need to jump up and down to attract other people's attention and investment."

"After the platform becomes big, it's my turn to make trouble for others."

The communication with Seven Stars and the Immortals are all about expressing themselves.

He has performed well enough, and it is the most appropriate choice to be stable at this time.

It's just for better performance, to contact a person who doesn't know him well enough, and to convince him... Jiang Qing has this confidence, but she doesn't want to take the risk.

"Okay." Ye Lan didn't say much, "This answer is within expectations, so come with me."

"Aren't you going to find Tianshu Xing?" Jiang Qing froze for a moment.

"There's no need to look for it." Ye Lan waved her hand, "Hand over a letter, it's enough for one person to say it."

This is not a formal cooperation either, it's just a show of favor with Zhiyi.

Sending a letter is enough, do you still have to go in person?
"Can this win over Uncle Tian?" Jiang Qing couldn't understand, "At most, he will remember Ning Guang's overtures. You don't think Zhiyi is really an indispensable part of his plan, do you?"

"What if I say he really is?" Ye Lan asked back.

Is it time difference again?
"Your information seems to be a little too advanced." Ye Lan paused, with a narrow smile, "I have to remind you that Zhiyi's value to Uncle Tian is changing."

"When the God of Rock didn't pass away, Zhiyi was a chess piece he laid casually. Even if he really planned to support Zhiyi to seek the Seven Stars, he would definitely not let Zhiyi take over Tianshu Star. Because Zhiyi is his student , he is doing this to turn a certain seven-star position into a family statement."

"And after the death of the God of Rock, the value of Zhiyi has increased, and he will become a collective test for Seven Stars."

Ye Lan's words were meaningful, "If teachers and students can naturally take over the position of Seven Stars, then can father and son or father and daughter also be able to?"

Ruined.

"But your reaction tells me that you haven't considered this possibility at all."

"That is to say, your perception of the value of Zhiyi is still at the moment when the God of Rock did not die."

She leaned against Jiang Qing's face, exhaling enticingly, "Are you dulled in thinking, or...the God of Rock is not dead?"

It is not enough that he is not dead, He has to let people know that he is not dead, so that he can have enough deterrence.

Although we are friends, we cannot be negligent.

This woman's curiosity really cannot be underestimated, so what she just said was actually digging a hole for herself.

Jiang Qing didn't think there was anything she couldn't reveal.

He had already spoken to Ning Guang once.

Any information, once someone from the second party knows it, its value will plummet, and it doesn't matter if there is one more Yelan.

but······

"You are too curious." Jiang Qing felt helpless.

"I didn't ask you what answer you want." She smiled lazily, and said slowly, "I just said what I know, and then asked your opinion."

"If you don't want to answer, then don't answer."

Ye Lan restrained her smile.

A temptation is a temptation, but she doesn't ask questions.

Jiang Qing obviously didn't want to say that being able to use intelligence to test out the information he wanted was an ability.

But asking forcefully is not ability, but creating trouble for everyone.

······
I'm Zhiyi, and I'm a little flustered.

Jiang Qing still guessed a little wrong.

Before Yelan said that to him, Ningguang had already told Uncle Tian that the God of Rock was still alive.

The reason why Zhiyi's change is so great is because he saw hope in a short period of time, and then was "abandoned".

After finishing his official duties, he put on his hat and walked to the beach.

This should be the moment he is closest to success.

Zhiyi's teacher is Tianshuxing, and he was born in a poor family, and he was able to get in touch with Uncle Tian because of a coincidence.

Originally, because of Uncle Tian, ​​it was basically difficult for him to become a Tianshu star, but because of Morax's sudden departure, his hope was rekindled.

If Zhiyi were to compete for other seven-star positions, even if he had this talent, he would not dare to say that he would definitely succeed.

There are many talented people, but there are only seven seven-star positions.

Only Tianshuxing... the contemporary Tianshuxing is his teacher, there is no reason for Uncle Tian not to help him.

Morax was dead anyway, wasn't he?

In fact, Uncle Tian seemed to have this attitude before.

The teacher who used to just mention something in the past finally had the intention to give him a boost.

However, on a certain day, Uncle Tian suddenly stopped all his movements and returned to his previous calm state.

Zhiyi had no choice but to think too much.

Of course he didn't know that during this period of time, Morax, who had been confirmed dead, came back to life in Uncle Tian's heart.

A Liyue without a god and a Liyue with a god, of course Qixing would not hold a standard.

Uncle Tian didn't do many things, so he turned around when he said U-turn.

But Zhiyi...
He had already seen the hope, so it was even more difficult to accept the failure at this time.

[But without the support of the teacher, how can I succeed. 】

While Zhiyi took out the fishing rod, he didn't pay any attention to the work in hand.

He can't give up.

No matter what Uncle Tian thinks, what Uncle Tian wants to do, the only thing that interferes with this future is his knowledge.

Uncle Tian can have many ideas, but Zhiyi cannot lose this opportunity.

The later the era, the lower the probability of his success... So the teacher has no reason not to support him as a student!

He has no way to push Huixin to the top position, if he doesn't push Zhiyi to go up, is he going to wait for someone to leave the tea?
Power stays in your hands and you don't need it. After you let go, you have nothing!

Zhiyi gritted his teeth subconsciously, unable to understand Uncle Tian's choice.

But the result has become like this, he has no choice but to face the reality.

"No one wants to make an investment?"

Jiang Qing suddenly asked, "Isn't he a chance to become a Seven Star? No businessman wants to invest in venture capital?"

What Zhiyi needs is not fame, but a little Mora.

There is no political activity that does not cost money, especially this kind of activity that competes for supremacy.

But he has no money.

But it is not surprising that people have no money, most people have this problem.

Zhiyi is so close to the position of Seven Stars, how could he have no idea of ​​taking risks by himself.

It also forced the other party to choose fools.

Today's businessmen are so stable, don't they want to take any risks?
But political investment has the highest return, and the risk of Conglong Zhigong is a bit higher, but the return is definitely worth the risk.

"Some people say that immortals will destroy the current seven-star structure... There may not even be a seven-star. Will you still invest in someone who may become a seven-star?"

Ye Lan spread her hands, "Although Zhiyi's personal ability is worthy of recognition, he may be able to gain his place in the new era."

"But to put it bluntly, there are actually quite a few people like this."

"Zhiyi himself can't be regarded as unlucky, after all, he still has Qixing as his teacher."

Ability is very important for people to become powerful, but sometimes luck really makes people laugh and cry, elusive.

It's hard to say why Zhiyi found Fools in the original timeline, but in this timeline, Jiang Qing has made great contributions.

But at that time, Jiang Qing himself could not have expected that such a coincidence could happen in the world.

He just borrowed a stage to perform himself, but the process of this performance caused Zhiyi to fall into accidents twice and three times.

"This is really..." Jiang Qing was dumbfounded.

"Don't worry." The corners of Ye Lan's mouth curled up slightly, "According to the latest investigation, they are going to do a big thing recently."

This was also the time when she deliberately found Jiang Qing.

Cooperating with fools is theoretically a stain, but it cannot be directly used as criminal evidence.

If it is a mistake to spend the money of fools, Zhong Li should stay in Qianyan Army's prison at this moment, instead of busying himself outside to invite Xian Dianyi.

The money the young master spends on him is worth anyone doubting his loyalty to this country.

But now that everyone regards him as a fairy, this doubt will naturally disappear.

If it's just for business, it doesn't matter if you cooperate with fools.

But what Zhiyi wanted was to gain a foothold among Liyue's Eight Gates and even the Seven Stars, and this identity obviously could not accept the support from Zhidong.

This is evidence that the official hat can be removed from his head, but to put it bluntly, Zhiyi is not worth her effort to bring it down.

What she wants to take away from Zhiyi is far more precious than this.

And it just so happens that during her investigation, the cooperation between Yurenzhong and Zhiyi is about to enter the next step.

The cooperation between Zhiyi and Yurenzhong is like the relationship between him and Uncle Tian.

The two sides have always been in contact, but Zhiyi has a lot of worries, and it has never been just contact.

Knowing Uncle Tian's sudden help and abandonment, Zhiyi chose to cooperate with Fools.

This person has a bit of low self-esteem, and the level of expectations for reality is too low.

Even though Uncle Tian remained neutral on the surface and ignored him, but at a critical moment, if he was really asked to choose someone, wouldn't he be inclined to Zhiyi at all?
Anyway, there are several to choose one, and there is no his daughter in it, so whoever you choose depends on your ability.

Uncle Tian didn't care at all, but Zhiyi was in a hurry.

"Caught a fish."

Zhiyi closes the shot, and Yelan smiles playfully.
