"Why don't you give this to me? I won't need it in the future anyway."
Famas smiled and pointed behind Ning Guang.
Following the gaze of the young man in red, she looked at the mahogany bookshelf behind her. The shelves were filled with her cherished objects, including the jade fan with Beidou inscription, the earthen dolls given by Qing Qing, the scale beam she used to set up a stall when she was a child... and many more. Something given to her by the emperor before his death.
The top layer is a stone lock that can float in the air.
Ningguang suspected that the stone lock was made of floating stone, but high-grade floating stone could only be smelted from high-quality ores mined from the Great Abyss of Strata Rocks. The mining of high-grade ores was extremely difficult in itself, and it was difficult to smelt them into a piece with distinct features and neat shapes. It is even more difficult to create a stone lock without losing its flexibility.
On the outside of the stone lock are irregular long strips that are constantly changing. It seems to be of the same nature as the mechanism locks popular among the people in Liyue.
It's a pity that these are items given by the emperor to unlock the seal. Although the rock god has passed away, out of respect for the emperor, Ningguang still properly preserved these "relics", otherwise she really wanted to see inside the stone lock. What is it.
For Ningguang, who focuses on business, nothing is off limits.
"I want that square stone lock."
Famas still had a smile on his face, but his tone was a bit cold, completely different from anyone Ningguang had ever seen before.
The boy in red didn't address her with any honorific, and his tone was casual to a certain extent, which could be considered a bit rude.
"There is nothing you can't do."
Ning Guang narrowed his eyes.
Although Mr. Famas looks suspicious, he is just an ordinary person with the eyes of God. As long as he enters Liyue, there will be no secrets that can escape his gaze.
"But in Liyue, fair contracts are important. If I give the stone lock to sir, what can you give me?"
"Isn't this what you compensated me for? Do you still want to trade?"
Famas casually leaned on the chair and moved his buttocks.
Sure enough, it was more comfortable to sit on the throne back then. Liyue's wooden chair was too hard.
"Haha, sir, do you know that Liyue has a special chess game?"
There was a faint smile on Ningguang's face, and she raised her hand to refill Famas' tea.
"You play a game of 'Liyue Millennium' with me. If I lose, I will give the stone lock to you. If you lose, please explain your origin to me."
Famas squinted at the smiling Ning Guang.
This smiling Tianquanxing seemed to just want to trick him.
"good."
The information that this Tianquan star knew was obviously completely inconsistent with that of Famas, and he seemed to want to think that Famas did not know who the founder of Liyue Millennium was.
Or maybe she thinks she can suppress the opposing boy in the chess game.
Hearing Famas's reply, Ningguang raised his legs as if he had a winning ticket and knocked on the table with his knuckles. Baiwen then came in and placed the eighth edition of 'Liyue Millennium' and added a pot of hot tea. .
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Ningguang temporarily changed a rule in the chess game and set the world in the chess game against a godless background.
Famas knew Liyue Millennium quite well. During the days when he was hanging out with Ying and Wendy, he also discovered that Liyue Millennium was a very good way of communication. The uncles and gentlemen in Liyue often chatted in their spare time. Set up a chessboard and play chess with friends in the market alley.
With Famas's trouble-making character, he often went to chess stalls on the street. With his exquisite chess skills, he successfully earned the title of "Uncle Killer".
"Guests go first."
Ningguang handed the two white jade dice in his hand to Famas, and then stared at Famas in surprise, skillfully rolling dice, placing dice, and buying and selling land deeds.
This unassuming young man in red has his own style of playing chess.
Although there is still a gap between him and himself, the founder of the chess game, it does not seem to be as unbearable as imagined.
Ning Guang confidently rolled the dice, and she actually took the lead and walked in front of Famas.
The background is set in a godless land, and the Golden House has lost its most important source of wealth, Morax, which means that Morax in Liyue cannot be endless like a god, and the ceremony of inviting immortals as a money-making event cannot be helped. Trigger, if you choose seven stars as the start, it can be said to be difficult.
But Ningguang didn't hesitate to pick up the chess pieces that fit his identity.
Famas didn't hesitate about which character to choose. He randomly picked one of the stone chess pieces in the box and happened to choose the executive officer of the Winter Kingdom who represented the Fools.
Liyue lost her emperor, and Ningguang and Famas fought back and forth for a while.
Famas's chess skills continue the tradition of Munata. He is eager and greedy. Whenever there is an opportunity, he starts to manipulate the market, speculates, and hoards goods without any regard for subsequent store operations.
Ningguang, on the other hand, worked steadily, laying a large and almost indestructible commercial foundation near Feiyun Slope, and then gradually moved towards the port controlled by Famas.
Before he knew it, half an hour passed. In the meantime, Bai Wenlai added half a pot of tea and put a gold velvet shawl on Ningguang.
What makes Ning Guang very strange is that Famas doesn't seem to be in a hurry to occupy the most important gold house. Instead, he runs the store in a destructive manner, and then puts a black chess piece on the store that cannot continue to operate.
This would indicate that the store has closed down or someone has died.
Among the golden chess pieces representing the Seven Stars and the white chess pieces representing the Fools, the occasional black color is like mold on white clothes, which makes Ningguang frown.
"What does he want to do?"
Ning Guang, the Lord of the Seven Stars, held his chin, his bright golden eyes shining with doubt.
If this continues, even Famas, which has the advantage of the port, will lose completely.
However, before Ning Guang could figure it out, Famas buried two black chess pieces in the gold of Feiyun Slope, which was particularly eye-catching.
Black chess pieces fell one after another, and Famas's white chess pieces were also forced into the port by the condensed light and fell into siege.
The advantage was obviously on Qixing's side, but Ningguang felt vaguely uneasy.
According to the rules, Famas, who was forced into the port by himself, had no room to turn around. After several rounds of dice rolling, Famas, who was forced into a desperate situation, had only two options.
One is to leave the port and return to the Winter Country in despair; the other is to wait to be defeated by Ning Guang.
But facing failure, Famas showed no signs of anxiety or panic. Instead, he leaned back on his chair confidently, picked up the tea cup, and sipped the tea with a smile.
Ning Guang picked up the chess piece, and Famas left the cost of purchasing the ship. The Qianyan Army was restrained and lost the emperor's trump card. The best outcome was to drive away the fools.
Tianquanxing, who was sure of victory, made a crucial move, raised his head easily, and his eyes met Famas.
"Mr. Famas, you have failed."
There was a hint of complacency in Ning Guang's calm voice.
"good!"
Famas seemed to be completely unconcerned about the outcome of the chess game and nodded in acknowledgement.
"So, about the contract..."
Just as Ning Guang was about to mention the agreement between the two, Famas waved his hand to interrupt her and pointed at the chessboard that had already been settled.
All the chess pieces representing the crowd of fools have disappeared, leaving only black and yellow.
Ning Guang looked at the chessboard. She didn't think there was anything there at first, but when she noticed the number and position of the black chess pieces, she suddenly discovered that the shops that had closed down due to poor management by Famas were all in Liyue's economic lifeline. Mining, salt industry, weapons casting...
Because it is a godless place, according to the rules of the chess game, destroyed shops cannot be restored and can only be rebuilt.
"He doesn't want to win against me... he just wants to destroy Liyue..."
Ningguang, who understood Famas's intention, was shocked.
