Benedict! Benedict!
Although the decoration style is that of Liyue, it is a bit too splendid. In the Northland Bank, Vlad, the fool wearing a red and black coat and a mask, was still guarding the bank. He softly opened the door and entered the bank, which is also the special envoy of the Solstice Kingdom. In the room of the executive son of Liyue General Agent.
"!
"
"Master!"
Then, when he saw their commander taking a nap on a chair with his arms folded, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, stood at attention and saluted.
Although the other side looks very kind and is only the last of the eleven executive officers, Vlad knows that the seemingly young man in front of him is top-notch in terms of strategizing methods and personal force level. Anyway, , he just doesn’t dare to be rude in front of the other party easily.
"Um."
"Very punctual!"
"Say it!"
"What actions have Liyue Qixing taken recently?"
Obviously, this meeting was scheduled, and it seemed to be a routine briefing every two days. Therefore, the young master did not even open his eyes, and just continued to ask Liyue casually with his eyes closed. situation comes.
"Report Young Master!"
"So far, the other party has not made any big moves, and Qunyu Pavilion shows no signs of moving."
"In the city, the Qianyan Army is still blocking Liyue Port in the name of arresting suspects, but the strange thing is that they don't seem to be in a hurry to arrest the suspects who must have left the city at this time. They just symbolically Some people were sent out to search, but the rest were more focused on us?"
"besides!"
"The Yuheng star Keqing among the seven stars in Liyue has been a little too active recently. Although our people tried hard to track her and find out her activity track and purpose, they were discovered and thrown away several times... …”
"On the other hand, Tianquan Ningguang, she is still busy collecting Liyue's power as before?"
"As of today, many people who don't want to believe in the death of the God of Rock or who hold objections seem to have been replaced by her under various names."
"As for the body of the Rock God, its true location has not been investigated yet..."
"But some people say that it was moved to Qunyu Pavilion. Although it is just a rumor at the moment, but thinking about it, since it can't be found in Liyue City, it still makes sense."
"That's all for now..."
Just like that, while the "Young Master" of the Fools closed his eyes and listened without saying a word, Vlad, the bank guard of the Fools and Liyue intelligence officer, summarized and sorted out all the valuable information he had collected. They whispered it bit by bit in this office so that their immediate boss could have a general understanding of the current general situation in Liyue.
"Are you busy trying to gain power at this time?"
"snort!"
"It seems that there is indeed something fishy about the fall of the Rock God..."
After hearing this, the young master suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at the subordinate standing in front of his desk before saying this with a sneer.
"??"
"Naughty?"
"Master!"
"You mean..."
"The God of Rocks, is she not dead?"
Hearing this, Vlad seemed a little unbelievable, so he hurriedly asked.
"No!"
After reaching out to signal his subordinate not to be anxious, the young master continued his analysis with a sneer:
"I'm more inclined to think that she might really be dead!"
"Otherwise, how could Quan Ningguang dare to reach out to the entire Liyue that day?"
"but……"
"How she died and who did it is a very interesting question. It always needs to be investigated carefully."
As he spoke, the young master laughed playfully.
Then, after thinking about it, he comfortably hugged the back of his head with both hands and changed his position to lie on the back of the chair. At the same time, he directly lifted his feet wearing leather shoes and placed them on the luxurious solid wood table. Just like that Lying leisurely behind the table, the expression on his face looked very relaxed, and he didn't know if he had thought of something good.
"Anyway!"
"You have to remember that although Liyue Qixing has made a lot of gestures to the outside world and pointed the finger at us explicitly or covertly, facts speak louder than words..."
"This time, it's really not us fools who have the upper hand!"
"so……"
"We don't have to be afraid of them. We do whatever we have to do. We don't need to be timid or scrupulous about anything. Let's learn from them and show them how to behave!"
"Is it possible..."
"Without any evidence, and without any possibility of having any evidence, how can she still forcibly pin the crime she wants to inflict on us fools?"
The corners of his mouth curved in an arc, and the young master with a sneer on his face gave instructions nonchalantly.
However, even though he said that, his life has not been easy these past few days. He has been being closely watched by several groups of people, and they almost made it clear that his "young master" was the one who attacked the King of Rocks. The suspect was arrested.
Therefore, he simply didn't go anywhere and stayed in the Bank of Northland all day long. He only sent his men to secretly operate and spy on intelligence, and at the same time, he patiently waited for the two travelers he used as gunmen to give in. He came back with an answer sheet that satisfied him.
When the time comes, he wants to see what the Liyue Seven Stars, especially the 'Tianquan' Ningguang, will look like under his countermeasures, and what tricks they can pull off?
"but……"
"In any case, no matter who did it, the whereabouts of the God of Rock's body must still be investigated clearly. There are some things that we must get as soon as possible, the sooner the better!"
"You must remember this and send more manpower if necessary. Do you understand?"
As he said that, the young master who had a relaxed face suddenly turned serious again, and glanced at his subordinate Vlad with a very unkind tone.
"!
"
"yes!"
"Don't worry!"
"My subordinates understand."
Under the current situation, Vlad was agitated and did not dare to be negligent. He quickly stood at attention and saluted, indicating that he would go all out and would never make any mistakes.
"very good!"
"You continue to send more people first. If there are not enough people in Liyue, we will transfer them from Mondstadt. Anyway, it is difficult to infiltrate Mondstadt now. What is the use of having so many people staying at the border?"
"remember!"
"At the moment, we are still focusing on collecting intelligence. Don't act rashly for the time being. After our two travelers come back, I will naturally have follow-up arrangements for you."
"No matter what, we must let Liyue Qixing see the tricks of our fools."
"Hmph!"
Having said this, the young master couldn't help but sneered and snorted.
This is just like what he told the two travelers from Mondstadt at the beginning. Although he was not the one who attacked and killed the God of Rock, he was indeed not a good person!
The reason why he originally provided the two people with the "Hundred No Taboos" and a full 200,000 molas of activity funds, and also took the initiative to guide them to find the three-eyed and five-manifestation immortal, was naturally because of his own considerations.
Now, he just needs to wait patiently for the good news in Liyue City, and then quietly arrange it, and wait for the two people to come back before taking the next step.
When the time comes, he believes that everything will fall into place naturally.
Although, their overall situation is not very good now, they are being targeted openly and covertly everywhere, and they can only passively defend and take advantage of their tactics. However, he believes that as long as things continue to develop according to his plan and arrangement, , he will eventually get what he wants.
perhaps……
Isn’t it certain that he will have more, better and unexpected gains by then?
"correct!"
"I almost forgot about those 'counterfeit coins' Mora..."
After thinking for a while, he felt that there was no more room for intervention in the affairs of Liyue Qixing and the God of Rocks. At present, the only thing left was to wait for the opportunity. The young master finally thought of another thing that seemed to him. Some kind of connection, but also a good thing with great benefits.
"How is the investigation going now?"
"How many newly minted molas have our Northland Bank received recently?"
As he spoke, the corners of the young master's mouth curved once again.
"Hmph!"
"I heard about it..."
"In view of the fact that the God of Rock was 'assassinated' and died during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, the Golden House, which has lost the power of the God of Rock, has announced that it will suspend the production of Mora?"
"They also said that Mora is likely to cease production indefinitely for a long time to come?"
"Tsk tsk!"
"To be honest, that financial bomb scared us Zhidong quite a bit. Recently, Moradu has started to appreciate in value."
"And what if..."
"It would be very interesting if a large number of newly minted 'counterfeit coins' Mora appear after the Gold House ceases production!"
Young Master has always been paying attention to this matter, and the more he thinks about it, the more significant it becomes.
In his opinion, there are only two possibilities for the fake Mora:
First, those newly minted 'counterfeit coins' Mora are related to the God of Rock, and even have some deep connection with the assassination of the God of Rock?
If that's the case, no matter which person or organization did it, when the time comes, they just need to slowly find out and clarify the key points, deal with it together with what they are going to do, and Let's see if we can seize the opportunity to seize the opportunity and obtain the power of the God of Rock and the casting method of Mora?
As for the rest, there is no need to worry too much.
Second, those newly minted 'counterfeit coins' Mora have nothing to do with the God of Rock, and they continue to appear after the God of Rock was killed?
If that were the case, it would be even more interesting.
You must know that Mora is the common currency and an indispensable magic catalyst in the world of Teyvat. If he can get his hands on its manufacturing method, the Ice Queen of their Solstice Kingdom will definitely treat him. High praise, right?
Although the 'counterfeit coin' Mora has some serious flaws, as long as they fools take over, those flaws will not be a problem. They only need to change the serial number and then reduce the power of the Rock God contained in it to the standard value. Then it is a 'real coin', and it is guaranteed that even the gold house cannot identify it!
They can even completely abandon Mora, create their own currency of Solstice Kingdom, and promote it to the entire Teyvat continent!
Until then...
Liyue's importance will definitely plummet, and his "young master" only needs to get the thing in the body of the Rock God and the method of minting coins to return triumphantly and accept the praise and favor of the Ice Queen. .
"Report Young Master!"
"So far, our Northland Bank has not received any more 'counterfeit' moras."
However, before the young master could continue to think about it, Vlad's angry voice instantly shattered his fantasy.
"??"
"That is to say..."
"Last time, the tens of millions of molas that woman brought were the last batch?"
There was a pause first, and then the young master, who knew what his subordinate meant, frowned slightly and pondered, and asked in a somewhat unbelieving tone.
"Yes!"
"Our Northland Bank has only received a total of two moras of that kind of 'counterfeit currency' until today, and in the next few days, there has been no more."
"correct."
"My subordinates have also sent people to keep an eye on all the banks in Liyue, including the Gold House. They have also sent more people to keep track of them many times, but... until now, no large quantities of 'counterfeit coins' have been found. ."
"There are some on the market, but the quantity is very small. Our people once bought a batch in the market in the name of using new coins for alchemy purposes at a premium, but the quantity was too small, and they were only sold in some restaurants or stalls. I only received one or two occasionally, but it doesn’t seem to have been circulated very much?”
"And then..."
"I heard that Liuliting and Xinyuexuan had received a batch, but they didn't say how many. We only exchanged a small batch at a high premium."
"Those cunning businessmen are not stupid. They should have seen the value of those 'counterfeit coins', so they began to cherish them. At that time, we offered a tenfold premium, and we barely exchanged a few hundred coins for them. Compare and reference.”
"We also found..."
"Now the newly minted 'counterfeit coin' molas have begun to appear on the black market in Liyue, and the price of each coin has been raised to an astonishing two hundred thousand molas, and the supply is still in short supply?"
"The businessmen in Liyue are so good at driving up prices. My subordinates feel that they may not have faith at all. As long as they can make money, there is nothing they dare not speculate on!"
"For money, maybe they really dare to attack their god?"
Speaking of this, Vlad couldn't help but clicked his tongue and didn't know what to say.
The value of those 'counterfeit' moras is nothing more than the value of gold as a precious metal and the value of the pure rock god's power in alchemy and other uses. They should be ten times more expensive than the 'real' molas of the same face value. It was already over, but as a result, in just a few days, after the people of Liyue found out, they raised the price to twenty times and showed no signs of stopping. That was indeed crazy.
He suddenly felt that if the Beiguo Bank took the total of more than 80 million of counterfeit coins they received and released them on the black market, they would definitely make an instant profit of more than one billion. That's almost This is their Northland Bank's income for almost a whole year, which is exciting just thinking about it.
However, thinking that the people in Liyue were likely to speculate on that 'counterfeit currency' to a higher and more outrageous price, he did not dare to speak out his thoughts.
"And one more thing……"
"Master!"
"Something strange is that after investigation, our people found that the 'counterfeit currency' not only pointed to the astrologer Mona, but also seemed to point to a little girl?"
Then, after Vlad remembered it, he hurriedly told a strange thing that he had finally investigated.
"little girl?"
"!
"
"It can't be her, right?"
He was startled for a moment, and then, without thinking, the young master directly picked up a wanted poster from his desk and held it up, and what was printed on the paper was a young man who playfully made faces at the camera. Big picture of girl.
"Yeah!"
Vlad quickly nodded in affirmation.
After all, there are two wanted posters posted next to the door of their Beiguo Bank, and now almost all the people in Liyue know the little girl.
"That's her!"
"This little girl Annie, when she first arrived in Liyue, I heard that she entered Liuli Pavilion with that Mona and spent money. She also gave so many moras that Liuli Pavilion had to make an exception?"
"Later, the counterfeit coins circulating in the market seemed to have come from the hands of that little girl."
"But we don't know whether those counterfeit coins are her own or obtained from the astrologer Mona."
"Of course, my subordinates prefer that Mona gave it to her?"
After hesitating for a moment, Vlad could only say with slumped shoulders.
"Well……"
"Now, do you know where she is?"
It doesn't matter whether it is or not. Young Master feels that they mainly need to find the person and then ask them. It will be clear. That is not too difficult.
"this……"
"terribly sorry!"
"Sir, we don't have many people in Liyue, and the attendance rate has almost reached the limit recently. She is someone who can't even be found by the Qianyan Army. Where can we find her?"
Vlad gave the young master a wry smile, indicating that he had really tried his best. It wasn't that he didn't want to look for him, but that he was short of manpower and there really was no place to look.
"..."
"Fine!"
"Then check it slowly!"
Knowing that this matter was indeed somewhat difficult, and also knowing that the little girl had some unclear connection with Mondstadt's Knights of the West Wind and Mondstadt's so-called 'New God', the young master frowned. , and then waved his hand to indicate that today’s briefing would end here.
"You do as I just told you!"
"There may be some connection between those two things, so you have to keep an eye on it."
"If there is any new news, remember to report it immediately!"
Obviously, he must have other considerations and analysis in his heart, but he did not show it or talk too much to his subordinate.
"yes!"
"That……"
"If nothing happens, my subordinate will resign?"
After asking, seeing the young master waving his hands impatiently, Vlad the Fool hurriedly stood at attention and saluted, then slowly withdrew and closed the door of the office considerately.
"..."
After a long time, when he was the only one left in the office, the "young master" stood up and walked to the window again, looking down at the busy Liyue Port outside.
"The God of Rock..."
"Liyue Seven Stars..."
"Mond..."
"little girl……."
"Fontaine..."
Afterwards, he murmured to himself and tried to roughly sort out the context of the matter.
"whispering sound!"
"Why is this ball of thread getting more and more messy!"
"That's fine!"
"Don't think about it yet!"
However, when he found that the more he explained, the more confusing he became, and he found that the context of the matter was like a ball of wool that had been scratched by a cat, and he couldn't figure it out clearly. Knowing that he still needed more intelligence support, he regretfully He slapped his forehead and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he walked to the small sofa next to the office and sat down. He poured himself a glass of fine wine from Mondchen Winery and drank it in one gulp.
"..."
The young master began to reflect carefully and think deeply.
There are no tears in the winter, nor do we believe in tears. Likewise, there is no good grape wine, because the country of ice and snow cannot produce high-quality grapes.
And now, he was sitting on the top of a high-rise building in Liyue, surrounded by many Qianyan troops either covertly or covertly, drinking Mondstadt's wine in his mouth, and planning a plan against Liyue in his mind. Think about it. It seems to have a different taste?
Of course, if everything goes well in the end, that would be great!
perhaps……
Will he bring a large box of Mondstadt's fine wine and many Liyue specialties and return to their solstice to celebrate with his colleagues and the Queen?
