Chapter Ninety-Six: Lin Lao's Persuasion of Marriage (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Due to some historical legacies, Inazuma is not like Mondstadt or Liyue, and its territory has not changed since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Inazuma is an island nation, which means that the islands need to go to sea to communicate with each other.
There are times when shipping is easier than on land, but there are two sides to the same thing.
Although the cost of water transportation is low, it is destined to be more risky than land transportation, especially since the islands like Inazuma are wrapped in the sea rather than intercepted by rivers.
Anyone who begs for a living on the water knows that whether or not they can return home smoothly after going to sea depends on God's opinion.
Maybe a storm, a tsunami, not only will your ship be gone, but people will also be killed in the sea.
This made it possible for the islands of Inazuma to be extremely independent in ancient times.
Although Thor, who later led humanity through island after island, stopped in front of an extremely large archipelago.
And that island, as it is now called, is the Watatsumi Islands.
For a long time, the Watatsumi Islands maintained their own independence from the Inazuma Islands, and had a good relationship with Inazuma.
However, one day, the god who favored the Watatsumi Islands died, and Thunder God forcibly annexed Watatsumi Island, forcing Watatsumi Island to submit to Thor's rule.
In order to avoid his own rule becoming too unpopular, and the beliefs of the Watatsumi Islands were different from most of the Inazuma people, Thunder God gave the Watatsumi Islands great autonomy.
Despite this, in the hearts of the people of Watatsumi Islands, Thor is still not the best master in their minds.
Therefore, with the order of the people to forcibly confiscate the Vision of the Gods, the relationship between the Watatsumi Islands and the Inazuma Islands became a little fragile, because the human god of thunder had to confiscate the eyes of outsiders.
Some foreign Vision holders stayed in Inazuma for some reason, and as a result, the Vision of God came suddenly, not to mention the Inazuma folk, and even the foreigners' Vision was also taken away.
How does this not make people angry?
In particular, with the incompetence of the Inazuma bureaucracy, a large number of dissatisfied or unwilling people fled to the Watatsumi Islands.
At that time, Inazuma was still full of confidence, and she took people directly without saying hello to the Watatsumi Islands.
Well, I don't think you're happy at first, and you still make angry moves, and now you directly violate my sovereignty.
War! War must be waged!
Although Watatsumi Island's military strength was much worse than Inazuma's, due to Inazuma's lack of conduct, Watatsumi Island did not accept the blows and recruited many people who were willing to fight against Inazuma.
Then, the two sides have been fighting since a few years ago and have not stopped.
It was also during this period of time that the Lin family made a lot of money, and after selling Inazuma and selling Watatsumi, it can be called a big winner.
Because both Inazuma and Watatsumi Island need external resources.
For the Lin family's two-sided approach, they can only acquiesce, after all, even if there is no war, the two sides have to rely on each other.
But not long ago, there was news that Inazuma and Watatsumi actually wanted to make peace.
This made Daddy Lin run to Inazuma immediately regardless of the danger.
For Daddy Lin, it didn't really make a difference between fighting and not fighting, because thunderstorms filled the entire Inazuma before the war began.
War is a treasury of swallowing money, and you can't win no matter how much you invest.
Not to mention that for the sake of the war, Inazuma's economy is already very difficult, and Watatsumi Island is even more close to smashing pots and selling iron.
Both Inazuma and Watatsumi Island owe a lot of money to the Lin family.
No, in order to please Daddy Lin and alleviate or reduce some of the arrears, Watatsumi Island plans to sell its own Coral Palace.
This is the family matter that Lin Yuan said in his mouth.
Who is that Sango Palace, the leader of Watatsumi Island, and the owner of Watatsumi Island.
Once the Lin family marries Watatsumi Island, does this mean that they will end up helping Watatsumi Island fight Inazuma?
Lin Yuan didn't know why, with his father's brain, he would agree to Watatsumi Island's request.
In Lin Yuan's opinion, this is simply outrageous.
Watatsumi Island and Coral Palace are fighting well, what do you say you have to do with it?
That Inazuma is the Lin family can touch porcelain?
Although Lin Yuan had said it well when he threatened Ambassador Solstice before, if he really started a war with any of the Seven Kingdoms, the Lin family still didn't dare, and the pay was completely disproportionate to the benefit.
Is that Inazuma a can be beaten by the Lin family? You know, you can't beat it.
This war has been going on year after year, and you say that it will not be fought now, is it useful?
Judging from Lin Yuan's thinking alone, it is definitely irrational to form an alliance with Watatsumi Island against Inazuma.
The god of thunder in Inazuma is still there, just watching there.
Of course, Lin Yuan forgot one thing, in his opinion, the family affair with Watatsumi Island was a political marriage.
But in reality, the matter of marrying is not too bad, and it is impossible for Watatsumi Island to let the current leader go as far away as Liyue to be a daughter-in-law.
In fact, the person who was pushed out of Watatsumi Island and married Lin Yuan is theoretically the next Watatsumi Island current god witch.
What's more, this wasn't Daddy Lin marrying Lin Yuan's mother, Lin Yuan was still in Liyue.
After pondering for a long time, Lin Yuan suddenly raised his head and spoke to Uncle Ye beside him.
"Uncle Ye, you help me send a letter to my father, just say, put aside the matter of kissing first, the war in Inazuma will not end so easily."
Lin Yuan closed his eyes, and his fingers kept tapping on the armrest of the chair.
Uncle Ye on the side heard this, and his face became serious.
As someone who was once infinitely close to a pirate, he naturally knew what the word war meant.
When sailing on the sea, it is impossible not to encounter some special circumstances, especially when Daddy Lin has not yet made a fortune.
Uncle Ye is one of the members who followed Daddy Lin on the sea.
At that time, they also accepted some maritime escort missions and experienced shock after impact.
Life and death, both are well chosen.
But war, that is, life and death on a large scale, and people cannot decide the life and death of all people by themselves.
In the past, when the Lin family's fleet met pirates at sea and started a naval battle, it was also a form of warfare in a certain way.
"Forget it, I'll write it myself, Uncle Ye, you remember to pick it up tomorrow."
Lin Yuan rubbed his eyebrows and waved his hand to Uncle Ye on the side, seeing this, Lao Ye already understood that Lin Yuan wanted to stay alone for a while.
After all, there was a marriage contract suddenly, and the impact was still too great for Lin Yuan.
However, Daddy Lin can't say that it is arranged.
Lao Ye knew that with Lin Yuan's temperament, only after Lin Yuan opened his mouth, one thing would finally come to an end, and everything was in vain before that.
How could Lin Yuan not know about his father's situation, he just wished that Lin Yuan would take a few more wives so that he could spread the leaves.
Anyway, Liyue doesn't have a rule that it can only be monogamous.
