Chapter 644: Part-time Job
Sumeru, Great Red Sand Sea, Red Sand Temple.
Sitting on the throne in the depths of the temple, Wang Daoyi was still thinking about the last of Navillette's expression.
That slightly gloomy look has confirmed that Wang Daoyi's guess is not wrong.
This water dragon king is estimated to have something to do with Nata.
As for why you say that,
It was mainly the jewel around Navillette's neck that gave Wang Daoyi some inspiration.
That kind of beautiful gem, Wang Daoyi once saw in Ningguang's collection,
But even Ningguang's collection is not as dazzling as the one around Villette's neck.
And this gemstone called [opal] seems to have originated from Nata.
Combined with some news about Nata that Wang Daoyi learned - Nata is a country where humans and dragons coexist.
In this way, it is much more reasonable to speculate that Navillette has a relationship with Nata.
"However, no matter how you say it, it's all Fontaine's business, and it has nothing to do with me, leaving a positioning gem is enough to save face."
Although he made it up himself, he was regarded as a threat by Navillette twice and three times, and Funina was so unbearable, and Wang Daoyi didn't care more about Fontaine.
There is really something, and one shot is the limit.
"The wedding cards that should be sent have been delivered, and the rest of the friends, let West Germany send someone to help me deliver it."
Wang Dao's heart moved, and his lips opened slightly;
"Kaisha, let Sid come to me."
The will of the gods is always sublime,
It didn't take long for the words of the command to appear, and the dusty Sid appeared in front of Wang Daoyi.
"You seem to be busy?" Wang Daoyi looked at West Germany with interest.
Dressed in desert robes, with a rather elaborate hairstyle, and skin that has not been exposed to the sun for a long time, West Germany does not even have the classic brown skin of desert people.
If it weren't for the smell of wind and sand still on his body,
Wang Daoyi even thought that he was a wealthy merchant in the rainforest city, not a warrior fighting the wind and sand.
Sid bowed his forehead in front of the gods: "Under your radiance, the development of the clan is extremely rapid, and our management is seriously insufficient. β
The cultivation of talents takes time, and Wang Daoyi really doesn't like to abuse canned knowledge.
Therefore, Chisha's talent cultivation system has gradually failed to keep up with the development speed of Chisha.
However, Wang Daoyi doesn't care, it's just a pain in development.
As the development of the rocky desert gradually slows down, the speed of Chisha's external expansion will naturally slow down.
At that time, the cultivation of talents will naturally follow.
There is no need to use canned knowledge to pull seedlings to fuel.
"Oh, I'm too busy, I can put some unimportant projects on hold for a while." As a shopkeeper who doesn't care about anything, Wang Daoyi still cares.
Sid nodded respectfully: "I'll try to arrange it." β
"Hmm." Wang Dao nodded a little and skipped the topic, "There is one thing for you to arrange." β
"Please command." West Germany was always in a state of obedience to the will of Wang Daoyi.
Wang Dao waved his hand, and a large stack of wedding cards with red background and gold rim flew in front of West Germany.
"Send people to get these things into the hands of the people on the list."
A long list also flew in front of West Germany.
West Germany only glanced at it and saw people from several different countries.
The Knights of Mondstadt, the owner of the winery......
Inazuma is a member of the community, a gang member of the street......
There are a lot of people who don't fit in with each other at all, and they appear on this list.
Sid didn't ask anything, and took the wedding card and the list: "I'll arrange it as soon as possible." β
Wang Dao nodded: "There is a copy for you, as my patron, you have done a lot for me, take a wedding card, as a family member, attend my wedding." β
βοΌοΌοΌοΌβ
Sid's eyes widened, and he looked at Wang Daoyi incredulously,
Under the excitement, tears slipped uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.
What an honor it is to attend the wedding of the gods as a family member, what a blessing... Happiness.
Sid didn't know what to say, and made the most simple move, he worshiped in front of Wang Daoyi's throne, and was reluctant to get up for a long time.
After a while,
Wang Daoyi spoke again: "Okay, get up, send things out as soon as possible." β
Sid got up from the ground trembling, his excitement making it difficult for him to calm down, and after another bow to the throne, he turned and left the temple with his things.
Looking at Sid's back, Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly, who would have thought that the old elder of a desert tribe that he had chosen at random could follow his footsteps and help him manage such a huge desert kingdom.
As the great steward of Chisha, the credit accumulated by West Germany is difficult to calculate.
Wang Daoyi or the Lord of Chisha himself does not participate in the management of Chisha, except for the role of the Dinghai Divine Needle, it is basically useless.
And West Germany is the one who really developed Chisha bit by bit.
Of course, in Sid's heart, if there was no great power of the gods, there would be no foundation for him to develop Chisha.
And Wang Daoyi's letting West Germany participate in his wedding as a family member is not a move to buy people's hearts.
is Wang Daoyi's simple belief that West Germany can be regarded as his own family.
Although there is not much of a close relationship, it can at least be regarded as a distant relative.
A steward who has served you all his life is actually closer than most of your relatives.
"Let's go back to Liyue first."
Wang Daoyi shook his head and disappeared on the throne,
And the figure of the Lord of the Red Sand reappeared, sitting on the throne instead of the royal road.
ββ
A Thousand Sands, a Hidden Place.
A traveler who embarked on a journey in search of his brother, with his partner, after playing happily in the secret land with the cute little guy for nearly a month,
I finally remembered that I still had an unfinished journey.
With sincere emotions and a secret somebody, 'I'm useless, but it's good to see you so useful!' After saying goodbye to the pure water elf, the group left the secret realm in the bottle.
When her gaze reappeared in the desert, Ying couldn't help but stretch: "Although the secret realm in the bottle is really fun, I feel that after playing for so long, the whole person is going to rust." β
"Haha, if the Honorary Knight wants to fight, you can come to the Knights of Favonius, everyone is willing to spar with you." Mr. Kaeya, the captain of the cavalry, warmly invited Ying.
Ying hurriedly shook her head: "Forget it, I'd better go find trouble with the hilichurls." β
It's really not fun to train against the Knights, so it's better to rush into the hilichurl camp and stretch your body comfortably.
"Everyone, what is this?" The soft female voice attracts everyone's attention.
Ying, like everyone else, turned around and looked at where Kokomi was speaking.
Several golden chains hovered in mid-air, and a faint touch of red could be seen in the middle of the chains.
"Huh? It's like ......" Paimon flew to Ying's side and looked at the golden chains, a hint of familiarity in his eyes.
"It's the secret chain of the Daoyi." Ying could see the origin of the chain at a glance.
"Has Daoyi been here?" Paimon looked surprised.
Glancing at Paimon, she said, "Here, but it's a desert." β
As the Lord of the Desert, it seemed reasonable for Wang Daoyi to know that they were here.
There was no worry or fear, and Ying walked directly to the golden chain,
Sensing Ying's approach, the golden chains slowly squirmed, like conscious beings, revealing what was sealed inside.
At this time, Ying saw clearly that the touch of red was actually an invitation with gold on a red background.
Reaching out to take the invitation, looking through it, Ying's face showed a smile.
"What is it?" Paimon's little head leaned in.
Although there is no culture, I still know a lot of words.
Seeing the words on the wedding card, Paimon also had a look of surprise on his face: "Daoyi and Xiangling are getting married!" β
"Huh?" A few people on the side were also attracted by Paimon's surprise shouts.
Wang Daoyi's identity is not a secret to them.
That Majesty is getting married?
Although there was a hint of disbelief in their hearts, everyone looked at each other and still didn't ask anything.
Kokomi smiled: "It seems that I am going back to Watatsumi Island as soon as possible, and when His Majesty gets married, Watatsumi Island will inevitably receive an invitation, so prepare gifts in advance." β
"Ha, there's a piano over there in the Knights, I shouldn't need to worry." Kaeya was surprised inside, but she was still relaxed on the surface.
Eula, who was standing on the side and didn't speak, and a young man from the Lawrence family, didn't know what they were thinking.
The presence of Eula and the Lawrence family here is more of a coincidence.
After Eula rectified the Lawrence family, there were naturally people who did not approve of Eula's ruling plan.
This young man was one of them, and he looked through a large number of Lawrence family materials and found information about the secret desert from the papers.
I want to rely on the desert realm to restore Lawrence's glory.
But it is clear that the danger of the outside world is beyond the imagination of this naΓ―ve Lawrence.
If Eula hadn't found him in time, he would have died in the secret realm.
"Lord of the Red Sands? Lesger Lawrence, we also need to get back to the residency as soon as possible and prepare a congratulatory gift. Eula looked at her people.
Lesger Lawrence nodded slightly: "I understand." β
After many hardships and almost death, Lesger Lawrence can already understand Eula's responsibility, and he is willing to obey Eula's orders.
"In that case, I'm going to go back and report to Master Tighnari about what's happened lately." Collei said timidly.
"In that case, everyone is going to be separated." Paimon was a little reluctant.
Kaeya smiled and picked up the ignorant Klee, "It's just a temporary separation, and I'll see you in Liyue then." β
Ying didn't hide the words on the wedding card, and Kaeya also knew where the banquet was held.
Together, they left the Hidden Place, returned to the nearby Chisha Station, rested for the night, and finally parted ways.
After seeing his friends leave,
Ying and Paimon glanced at each other,
Paimon: "Shall we go to Liyue now?" β
Ying thought for a moment, then shook her head slightly: "Hmm...... There's still a while, so let's go to the Adventurers' Guild to take a mission and earn some Mora, otherwise you won't even be able to give a congratulatory gift. β
"yes, to make money." Paimon nodded hurriedly, agreeing with Ying's statement.
Before, they used all their savings to set up the Star Circle for Layla, and until now, their financial resources have not recovered.
If it weren't for the fact that he had been hanging around in the secret realm in a bottle for a month, eating and drinking for nothing, Paimon's food expenses might have become a problem.
"Let's go, go and ask Catherine if there are any easy and expensive tasks."
"If there was such a task, it would have been taken over a long time ago."
"Then look for a hunting mission, I don't want to play any more decryption and exploration missions."
Ying and Paimon said a word, and under the light of the sun, they rushed to the Chisha headquarters.
After the last desert adventure event, the Adventurers' Guild opened a branch in the desert.
However, Solstice also sent a Catherine over at the same time.
Although the headquarters of the Adventurers' Guild is located in Solstice, he is indeed a neutral force.
Wang Daoyi did not expel them, but encouraged his people who did not join the Chisha army to participate in the adventure.
Adventure and exploration are the best ways to preserve the courage of a nation.
As long as the spirit of adventure and exploration does not die, the courage of this nation will never run out.
After all, without the support of courage, there would be no legend of adventure and exploration.
Great Red Sand Sea, Rich Oasis, Red Sand Headquarters,
Unlike the Adventurers' Guilds in other regions, the Adventurers' Guild here only occupies a small tent.
If it weren't for Miss Catherine's presence, it would be more of a repository than a place to host adventurers.
Dense piles of paperwork are piled up in the camp tent, these are the issued tasks, and the receipt of the adventurer to complete the mission.
The Desert Adventurers' Association was established for a short time, and the only few officers were sent by the Sumeru Adventurers' Association.
The processing speed of official documents is very slow.
However, as long as Miss Catherine is around, the needs of desert adventurers can be satisfied.
After lining up to enter the camp tent and watching the adventurer in front of them accept the mission and leave, Ying and Paimon stepped forward, "Long time no see, Catherine, are there any well-paid missions lately?" β
Catherine looked up and smiled, "It's Traveler and Paimon, it's been a long time, I heard Jee Ted talk about you the other day." β
"Is Jee Tak back?" Ying asked in surprise.
Catherine shook her head: "I took the mission and went out again, now Jeongde, but the leader of a large adventure group, she is very busy." β
"Okay, I want to play with her." Ying pouted in disappointment, then turned the subject back, "Back to business, have you had any well-paid assignments lately?" It's better to be direct, I don't want to play any decryption at all. β
In the face of Ying's inquiry, Catherine still maintained a standard smile.
"Simple, straightforward, well-paid task? Let me see. β
Catherine flipped through a thick notebook filled with mission information.
In fact, as a robot, Catherine has the ability to calculate data.
However, in normal times, Catherine will behave like a normal person.
"I've taken a look, and there are probably a few tasks that fit your requirements better.
The first task,
Recently, on the side of the Iron Oasis, there was an anomalous wind erosion sandworm, although it did not attack the oasis, but it also destroyed the trade route, the head of the oasis, Berrat-Kashak, inquired about the wind erosion sandworm of the chirping sand many times, but it was not resolved, and Belat Kashak hoped that the adventurers' guild would help expel the anomalous wind erosion sandworm.
The current bounty is 400,000 Mora, but there have already been twelve teams of adventurers who have failed, and it is appropriate to ask for a higher reward.
The second task,
Recently, there have been a lot of monster gathering places around the Oasis Canal.,Although Lord Greta has led people to clean up many times.,But there are also monsters left.,The canal management has put out a bounty.,Every time you clean up a monster.,You can get a certain reward according to the level of the monster.,In addition, the monster materials belong to you.γ
The bounty is not fixed, and there are currently thirty-six teams of adventurers who have accepted the mission, but the canal is long and the competition is not very fierce.
The third task,
The Temple of Red Sand has put out a bounty to seek a large number of precious materials, as long as the materials are of good elemental phase or very strong, the Temple of Red Sand will buy them at a price 10%-30% higher than the market price.
This is the hottest quest recently, and the Red Sand Temple requires a lot of materials.
The fourth task,
The Alchemy Workshop of the Headquarters is really conducting experiments on some kind of high-level energy, and if you have any special information, you can also get a lot of rewards.
There are currently sixteen teams of adventurers accepting the mission, but none of them have been completed.
The Alchemy Workshop has raised the bounty to 1.5 million Mora.
β¦β¦β
Catherine was a professional receptionist and quickly sifted through a large number of tasks.
Paimon looked at the bounties on those missions, and a golden glint appeared in his eyes.
These missions, which move tens of millions of Mora, are much higher than the bounty tasks they have done before.
You must know that an ordinary member of the Treasure Hoarder Group has a bounty of 1,000 Mora, and the bounty of a powerful hilichurl king is only about 100,000 Mora.
Ying looked at the mission introduction, counted the distance, and then said to Catherine: "I took all four tasks." β
"Okay, that's for you." Catherine said with a smile.
Ying summed it up,
First go to the alchemy workshop to see if you can complete the task, and then go to the Iron Oasis to deal with the abnormal wind erosion sandworms, and then go all the way to the Three Canal Oasis along the canal to complete the task of hunting monsters, and finally return to the Chisha headquarters with the hunting materials to pay the commission to search for extraordinary materials.
With such a set, all the tasks were completed, and the time was almost stuck just before Wang Daoyi and Xiangling's wedding.
After taking over the task, Ying took Paimon to the alchemy workshop,
But I saw a familiar figure exchanging something with Nicholred in front of the alchemy workshop.
"Well, let's talk about Athos's material affairs later, it's time to ......"
After explaining to Nikored, Wang Daoyi turned to look at Ying and Paimon,
"Long time no see, two."
Paimon waved his hand excitedly, "Daoyi, we received your wedding message, and we thought you had already returned to Liyue." β
Wang Dao smiled: "I was going to go back, but I sensed your breath temporarily, so I stayed for a while." β
He had planned to go back to Liyue directly, but he felt the aura of Ying and Paimon's return, so he came to the alchemy workshop and waited.
"You wait for us, is there anything going on?" Ying looked at Wang Daoyi with some curiosity.
Wang Daoyi looked at Ying, who was preparing a congratulatory gift for him, and turned into a part-time worker: "It's not a big deal, I just want to ask, when are you going to Fontaine?" β
"Fontaine? Not...... After you and Xiangling get married, it's the Lantern Festival, let's go after the Lantern Festival. β
Part-time job Ying thought about it for a while and gave a time arrangement.
"Okay, come to the temple to find me before you go, I have a commission for you."
Wang Dao had a smile in his eyes,
Although Navillette and Funina were reluctant to tell the secrets, with Yingying, Wang Daoyi believed that those secrets would eventually reach his ears.
There's nothing wrong with Ying, and it's not the first time I've done this kind of thing.
Before she went to Inazuma, Wang Daoyi entrusted her to deliver something.
"Okay, I'll make a note of it." Ying nodded, then looked at Nicholred, "We took a commission from the Adventurers' Guild and said you need help with your experiments?" β
