Coming back to the Jade Pavilion.

Lin Feng was not as polite as before this time.

There was neither a normal process nor an advance notice.

Instead, he rose into the air in full view of everyone and stepped onto the Jade Pavilion.

Moreover.

He also donned the executive attire that represented Solstice.

Well, Tartaglia's.

Because this is currently public, it can be said to represent the highest position in the Winter Kingdom and within the Fatui.

As long as it is someone who is familiar with the solstice.

At a glance, you can know that there is a terrible person in the Jade Pavilion.

Especially the other five stars of Liyue.

After receiving this news, the reactions were even different.

Someone had a look that was exactly what they were.

Condensation's newly added law.

Although the impact is widespread, anyone with a discerning eye knows that it was enacted specifically to target the expansion of the Northland Bank.

Therefore, they had long been prepared for the Fatui to protest fiercely, but they didn't expect Lin Feng to be so high-profile.

Others looked worried.

The Fatui do it.

If one is not handled well.

That would have a huge impact on the Celestial Power Star's condensation, and even on the prestige of the Liyue Seven Stars.

The last time negotiations between the Fatui and Ningguang broke down, the Winter Envoy categorically refused to cooperate, and later sent weapons and equipment in his private name.

There are many discussions about his very different approach from one after another, and there are all kinds of theories.

It's just what Ningguang did that would make the attitude of the Solstice change dramatically.

No matter how much the other Liyue Seven Stars inquired into, they didn't get the inside story.

Only that young Yu Hengxing.

I heard that she had a big quarrel with Ning Guang in the Jade Pavilion because of this matter, and the two of them hadn't spoken a word for a long time.

Get rid of the neutral and pro-Ningguang factions.

There is another school of thought.

That is the Seven Stars who have long been dissatisfied with Ningguang and have close cooperation with people from other countries.

I heard that the Fatui had an executive who went to find fault.

Their first instinct was to be happy.

The second reaction was to be happier.

Ningguang was different from those seven stars who had been inherited for a long time.

She was a true self-made entrepreneur who eventually became a merchant in Liyue Seven.

There is neither power nor power behind it.

It's just that after the death of the previous one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, all of his successors died inexplicably, resulting in a vacancy in the position of Celestial Power.

In the end, under the game of the remaining six.

This young and not very strong Ningguang stood out from a large number of competitors under the manipulation of the other six companies openly and secretly.

became the new Tianquan star.

This kind of operation was once taught in the class of Solstice [Fireplace House].

In order to balance each other's forces, each party will elect a person who is absolutely neutral and will not go beyond their control to act as an intermediary.

Similar operations.

There are also Knights of the West like Mondstadt.

Almost all of the previous Grand Masters were outsiders who had no power before, and the next one never had anything to do with the previous one.

As for the position of deputy head of the regiment, it has always been firmly controlled by the Gunnhild family.

In order to ensure that Mondstadt's rights can be controlled in his own hands for a long time.

Merely.

What the Seven Stars of Liyue didn't expect was this.

A commoner-born Ningguang would have so many superb means.

From the moment she was elected as the star of celestial power.

She is openly in harmony with the other six stars, but behind the scenes, she secretly controls Liyue's most powerful intelligence organization and offshore fleet.

And quietly encroach on the interests of the other Liyue Seven Stars with various clever business methods.

He even enlisted the support of some of the Seven Stars of Liyue.

When those who oppose it come to their senses.

Step by step, I have come to this position today.

Not only did he completely get rid of the control of the other six stars, but he also became the most powerful and powerful merchant in all of Liyue.

The Jade Pavilion that floated in the sky.

It is a thorn in the eyes of those who oppose Ningguang.

So now someone has come forward to sanction Ningguang, even if it is an outsider, it makes their hearts extremely happy.

Let's not talk about how the outside world talked about the Fatui executive forcibly ascending the Jade Pavilion.

Ningguang's reaction to this incident was quite calm.

Although Lin Feng's high-profile behavior was somewhat unexpected, it was still within an acceptable range.

"You don't seem surprised that I've come to you."

"Miss Ningguang—"

Lin Feng calmly sat opposite Ningguang, sipping the good tea sent by the secretaries.

This time, there were no outsiders in the Jade Pavilion.

Only him and Ningguang.

Solve problems face-to-face.

"Not really."

Ningguang chuckled: "It's just that it's a bit surprising that the dignified Ice God's family will come in the clothes of an executive officer." ”

The deity is higher than the executive.

This is a normal idea that normal people have.

Lin Feng didn't feel that this was a compliment to him, but sneered:

"Miss Ningguang had better be careful when she speaks."

"I and all the executive officers are all working for Her Majesty the Empress, and there is no distinction between them."

Of course.

This is not the case.

His dependents are just a pseudo-dependent, and in fact, he can only be about the same as a low-level executive like Tartaglia.

A high-ranking executive like Dr. Harlequin Girl.

Their relationship with the Ice Empress is not that of a boss and a subordinate, but of a collaborator.

Once the idea does not match the Ice Empress.

With their strength and the contract they had with the Empress, they could betray the Ice Empress at any time.

This is also the reason why Torre dared to cooperate with Sumeru in the blasphemy experiment.

Anyway.

Ningguang is now clearly elevating the status of his dependents, and actually belittling the behavior of the executive.

This kind of digging a big hole is definitely not something that I can take over casually.

The devil knows what word will come out of this place.

For Lin Feng to correct his own words.

Ningguang didn't say anything more, and continued to smile: "Mr. Oedipus is here today, but what is there to discuss?" ”

"Tsk, Miss Ningguang asked me first."

Lin Feng snorted, took out a handful of firearms and threw them on the table.

It was captured on his ship in the Southern Cross.

What is this thing.

He's all too familiar.

The Fatui's new Fire Bolt fires special fire elemental bullets.

With the Vision's bonus, it will be even more powerful.

Ordinary people without God's Eyes can also use it.

But this thing was sent by him to support the Millelith in the Chasm, not to arm the Beidou fleet.

Although in the Southern Cross, the Fatui don't have a lot of weapons.

Lin Feng found less than twenty of them.

But that's enough reason to be difficult.

"Miss Ningguang."

"It's not a good habit to send people to carry the black cauldron for us fools."

For Lin Feng's accusation of coming up with substantial evidence.

Ningguang had been mentally prepared for a long time.

Beidou had already told her about this when he first returned to Liyue Harbor.

I saw her smile calmly: "This matter is indeed our fault." ”

"I will pay the compensation that should be done."

"I can promise it won't happen again."

"As for the Southern Cross fleet."

"They've been punished by you."

"Mr. Oedipus, why don't you reveal it?"

The smile on Ningguang's face never stopped.

Judging by her understatement, it seems that she is not talking about a national event that will cause diplomatic disputes, but just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning.

But Lin Feng can't be dismissed with just a few words.

He crossed his hands and said with a smile: "I have a big appetite, I don't know what compensation Miss Ningguang is going to use to satisfy me?" ”

"Oh, yes."

"I don't like Mora's vulgarity."

"If the Jade Pavilion is used as compensation, then I should be very happy."

After all that is said.

There was an eerie silence in the room.

Ningguang stared at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng also stared at her.

Neither of them looked away.

They kept looking at each other for a long time.

Ning Guangcai regained his previous composure and said, "Mr. Oedipus really likes to joke. ”

"My reparations for the Fatui."

"It's the future mining rights under the Chasm."

"Period."

"Ten years."

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows.

This condition sounds pretty good.

After all, Strata Chasm is Liyue's largest mining area.

In particular, the underground veins are even more precious ores.

The Liyue people are trying to expand the mining area.

They even dug under the borders of Sumeru.

For this reason, the two countries have engaged in a war of words on diplomatic occasions.

However, the veins beneath the Chasm are not the same as they used to be.

Due to the spread of black mud in the abyss.

All kinds of strange events are frequent, and the health of the miners is also deteriorating.

The underground of the Stratum has long been impossible to mine properly.

Except for the Millelith Army, which is cleaning up the black mud, it is the Treasure Hoarders who are everywhere as long as they can make money.

"Miss Ningguang is really good at calculus."

Lin Feng did not refuse immediately, but praised Ning Guang first.

It's just a decade of underground vein mining rights.

can deceive the Fatui for free.

And no matter how strong the Fatui are in terms of mining power.

The terrifying reserves of the underground mining area of the Strata Chasm.

In the case of the need to divide the hands to constantly clean up the black mud of the abyss, even if they are given ten years, how many ores can the Fatui dig up.

But the ten-year mining rights of the underground veins of the Strata Chasm.

The stakes are just too great.

Liyue's ores have always been known for their high quality.

In particular, only the glazed crystal sand produced in the underground mining area of the strata chasm is a rare ore with an extremely high price.

So for any country.

It's hard to refuse.

It's just that this is something that the state cannot refuse.

"Miss Ningguang, it's better to change conditions."

"The Chasm doesn't do me any good."

Lin Feng leaned on the sofa and crossed Erlang's legs with a smile.

Don't you just want to know your attitude?

It doesn't matter if you tell her.

Ningguang finally solved the doubts in his heart.

Last negotiation.

She felt that something was wrong with Lin Feng.

Troy Schnetzwich, who is nominally a dependant of the Ice God and an envoy of Solstice, seems to have no interest in Solstice's interests.

Now it's finally confirmed.

This guy really doesn't care about the interests of Solstice.

Mind yourself alone.

After figuring out this, Ningguang smiled.

Since he is an extremely egoistic, it is much easier.

"What Mr. Oedipus said."

"Then this reparation."

"How about replacing it with my Liyue Crescent Xuan?"

Without changing his color, Ningguang sent away the property of one of the Seven Stars.

For this condition.

Lin Feng became a little interested.

Crescent Pavilion is Liyue's representative of moon cuisine.

Because it is a monopoly business, the annual profit can be called terrifying.

Merely.

"Miss Ningguang, give me someone else's property as compensation."

"I'm afraid some people will hold a grudge against me, right?"

Lin Feng was not afraid that the gold lord behind Xinyue Xuan would attack him.

Anyway, the era of the Seven Stars of Liyue is not a few years away.

He just thought Ningguang's approach was interesting.

For this issue.

Ningguang's answer was also very simple: "The evidence is conclusive that Crescent Pavilion is suspected of monopolizing Liyue's seafood market. ”

"This is already a violation of Liyue's commodity monopoly regulations, and according to the regulations, the punishment he should be imposed is to close his business."

Hear this.

Lin Feng laughed.

Before he left Liyue, he asked Keqing for help with this.

At that time, I didn't know if Keqing's qualifications were too shallow, and he couldn't get the gold lord behind Xinyue Xuan.

And so it dragged on.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Keqing left, Ningguang did it instead.

"Yes."

"That's all for pretending to be the Fatui, and I won't pursue it anymore."

Lin Feng nodded in response, "It's just that when I take over the Crescent Moon Xuan, Miss Ningguang don't forget to come forward." ”

Next.

He continued, "Miss Ningguang, it's time for us to talk about your problem. ”

"I'd love to know."

"Who gave you the courage to target me so bluntly?"

"The immortals of Liyue?"

"Or the Rock Emperor?"

"Do you think that my master is an immortal of Liyue, and my current identity is that of an immortal disciple of Liyue?"

"You can ride on my head with impunity?"

"Do you think I wouldn't dare kill you?"

Lin Feng's voice became colder and colder.

At the end of the sentence, the temperature in the room plummeted.

The tea that was still steaming instantly condensed into frost.

The power of the Ice God's dependents.

However, in the face of Lin Feng's intimidation.

Ningguang's complexion only changed for a moment, and then he returned to normal: "Mr. Oedipus is really good at laughing. ”

"Ningguang started from scratch, all the way from the hawker selling along the way to the position of the Heavenly Power Star, relying on himself, not the blessing of others."

"What you're saying is against you."

"Have you ever wondered how many foreign trading houses I have in Liyue? And how many foreign chambers of commerce are there? ”

"We in Liyue are tolerant of all rivers and rivers, and we will never refuse to allow foreigners to come to us to do business."

"There's never been a difference."

"Oedipus, do you think I'm targeting the Northland Bank?"

Ningguang smiled, stretched out a slender white finger and shook it, "No, I'm targeting the foreign merchants of all of Liyue. ”

"In Liyue, you have to follow the rules of Liyue."

"In the same way, in Liyue, I protect the rights of our Liyue people."

Ningguang's words are very reasonable.

This kind of reason for standing on the moral high ground, even Lin Feng can't find the slightest fault.

Even if he knew about it, Ning Guang was definitely on purpose.

But he didn't have a valid reason to refute Ningguang.

As he had told Eula on the boat.

wants to force Ningguang to change the law for himself, so that Northland Bank has a unique privilege.

This is absolutely impossible.

Fortunately.

I didn't come today for such a superficial request, just to tell Ningguang a word.

Seeing Lin Feng smile and say, "I'm afraid Miss Ningguang has misunderstood." ”

"I'm coming to you today."

"I'm not here to negotiate conditions for you to deal with the Northland Bank."

"I'm here today."

"I'm here to inform you."

"I don't care what your reason or motivation is."

"It doesn't matter if you're targeting someone else and affecting Northland Bank."

"I'll just say one word."

"Dare to target my Northland Bank again."

"Consequences! Conceited! ”

Lin Feng finished speaking.

Didn't look at Ningguang's face again.

Haha laughed, got up, pushed the door and left.

What is a strong dragon that does not suppress the head snake!

That's because the dragon isn't strong enough!

Now that Zhongli is gone, Ganyu is gone, Yanfei is not there, and Keqing is not there, Ningguang feels that she can let herself fly and use her hands and feet wantonly.

But she probably didn't expect it.

The same.

Lin Feng has also lost his restraints!

As long as he doesn't do anything like destroying Liyue Harbor, the only immortals who can restrain him now won't care what he does!

Walk to the edge of the Jade Pavilion.

Lin Feng looked at the fire that had already ignited, and laughed and said, "Miss Ningguang, come out and see the scenery-"

Let's talk about it.

He stretched out his arms, leaned forward, and fell gracefully under the terrifying eyes of the Jade Pavilion attendants.

My May Day torture is over, and tomorrow I will start to recover from Riwan~~~
