66, Diona
"Hey, what are you doing here!"
A hunter dressed in hunting clothes walked quickly with a bow on his back, and just happened to see the carcass of a wild boar being taken back into his backpack by Lin Chen.
Although I didn't know how to do it, I couldn't help but be angry and said: "Who let you hunt here, this is the habitat of wild boars, if you scare them all away, there will be no prey to hunt in the future!" ”
Lin Chen looked at the hunter man in front of him with a handful of small teasers, and suddenly thought of Xiangling's plot, and couldn't help asking, "Are you...... Your name is Alan? ”
"You know me?"
Alan looked at Lin Chen and thought for a while, "But I don't know you, but even if you know me, you don't want to be close to me." ”
Lin Chen said speechlessly: "Who wants to get close to you, I understand the rules here, don't you just go to your hunter leader Draff, we'll go later." ”
“……”
Obviously, Alan didn't expect Lin Chen to be so familiar with the process, opened his mouth, and finally could only helplessly hug his arms and said coldly: "That's good, you must sincerely apologize to him." ”
After saying that, he walked away with a "hum".
After Alan left, Xiangling, who was half a beat slower to react, understood what was going on, and panicked: "Oh, are we in trouble?" ”
"Don't worry, it's a trivial matter, let's go to Draff's first."
Lin Chen didn't take it seriously at all, he didn't panic at all when he knew the plot.
"That's it, after all, I did something wrong." Xiangling felt a little guilty.
Then the two left the depths of the whispering forest, and after walking for a while, Lin Chen saw that it was a lot empty, so he released the car.
Immediately attracted Xiangling's attention, she licked her little tongue, and showed a squirrel-like smile: "What is this." Can you eat it? ”
"No, it's a means of transportation." Lin Chen sat in the cab and patted the window, "Come in, hurry up this way." ”
Hearing that it wasn't for food, Xiangling was a little disappointed.
However, he still obediently sat in the co-pilot according to Lin Chen's prompts.
With the roar of the car, it disappeared into the field as soon as it was ridden.
Qingquan Town is not too far away, and it can be reached in an hour's effort.
It is worth noting that Lin Chen found that there were many people from the engineering team along the roadside, who seemed to be surveying the road.
Presumably Diluc has already put it into action, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the construction of the two main roads from Mondstadt to Dawn Winery and Springs Town will begin.
Arrive in Mondstadt's smallest city, Springs!
As soon as Lin Chen and Xiangling got out of the car, they attracted the attention of many townspeople.
"Hey, this car seems to belong to Master Diluc, why don't you know the people who got down?"
"I know, this seems to be the new honorary knight of the Order, I heard that Lord Diluc's car was also bought from him, and it seems to have cost millions of Mora......"
Compared to Lin Chen, Diluc's reputation in Qingquan Town is obviously greater, but not everyone is unfamiliar with Lin Chen, and some people have learned about him when they go to Mondstadt to buy supplies.
Lin Chen ignored the townsfolk who came out of the cabin, and his gaze automatically searched for Draff.
Soon he saw Draff in front of a slightly larger wooden hut, washing and slaughtering his prey by the nearby spring, completely unconcerned about anything else.
"That's Draff, let's get there."
Lin Chen and Xiangling glanced at each other and walked over together.
Come to him.
Draff was blocked by the shadows and couldn't help but squint and look up.
Xiangling hurriedly bowed and apologized: "Mr. Draff, I'm sorry!" It's my fault, I shouldn't have gone hunting and broken the rules......"
"Oh, it turned out to be you." Draff shook the water from his hands and stood up.
He looked at Xiangling, then looked at Lin Chen, and said in astonishment: "Your Excellency Honorary Knight, why are you here?" ”
Lin Chen raised his eyebrows: "You know me too?" ”
It stands to reason that while he did have a certain amount of prestige in Mondstadt, it was unlikely that Draff, a man of a certain stature in Clearsprings, would have held him in such respect.
Unless there is another reason.
"Of course."
Draff said with a little respect, "We heard from Master Diluc that you proposed to him to build a road from Dawn Winery and Springs to Mondstadt, and we are all grateful to you when we hear about it. ”
I see, no wonder I was so polite when we met.
However, he had only planned to build a road from the winery to Mondstadt, and Diluc had proposed it to Diluc in Clearsprings, so why did Diluc take the credit?
He pressed this doubt in his heart and smiled: "It's nothing, in fact, it's mainly Diluc's money, and I'm just assisting from the side." ”
"I can't say that, if it weren't for you to take the lead, this broken road that has plagued us for many years may not have been solved."
Draff sighed.
Lin Chen also thought so.
Teyvat thrived in many things, but many of its infrastructure developments were lagging behind.
The power system and the mystical side realm are far ahead, but everyday life is still alive in the Middle Ages.
"Oh, sorry, ignored you."
Seeing that Xiangling was still bowing, Draff hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need to do this, in fact, I already found out that Xiangling and you came to Mondstadt, so I asked Alan to follow you and ask him to invite you over." ”
"So, I'm not going to be punished, am I?"
Xiangling's frustrated little face suddenly lightened a little.
Draff smiled, "Of course, and we still have a request for you, I hope you can help us promote our meat products." ”
"Huh?"
Xiangling scratched her head in confusion.
"Let me explain that the high quality of the meat in Springs is well known in Mondstadt, but that's about it. I heard that Wanmintang's famous chef Xiangling came to Mondstadt, so I wanted to ask for help to promote it. ”
Lin Chen predicted Xiangling, stopped her from saying that she was about to be refused, and said one step ahead: "Actually, Mr. Draff, I heard that you have a very good chef Bullock, let her communicate with Xiangling and then promote it." ”
"But Brock's meat may not be to Liyue's taste......" Draff stopped before nodding his head, "Well, it's good that Brock has been complaining to me lately, and you might be able to untie her knot." ”
"Untie some knots, Dad."
From outside the wooden house, a cat-tailed little Lori suddenly walked out.
Pink hair, fluffy cat ears, and a cat tail swaying gently behind him, just like Klee, they all belong to the type of "three years of blood earning, and the death penalty is not lost".
"Oh Diona, are you awake?"
Draff smiled kindly: "Are you going to the Cattail Tavern again?" ”
At the mention of the word tavern, it was obvious to feel Diona's displeasure, and the expression of disgust was not disguised.
"Don't mention wine to me, Dad."
Diona puffed out her mouth and said angrily.
"Okay, good, it's Dad's fault."
Draff admitted his mistake quickly, and seemed to feel a little embarrassed to be reprimanded by his daughter in front of outsiders, so he immediately changed the topic and introduced to Lin Chen and Xiangling: "This is my daughter Diona, if you have paid attention to the bartending industry, you may know her." ”
"Stupid Daddy!"
Diona was furious.
