Anping stayed with Grandma Ruoxin for ten days in Qingce Village.

He told Grandma Ruoxin about what he had seen in Liyue City, complimented Master Mao's family on their kindness, and often mentioned the big people in Liyue whose names he didn't even know what they looked like.

After all, Anping never dared to tell Grandma Ruoxin about being a sailor, for fear that her old man would worry. In the letters sent back, Anping has always portrayed himself as a senior adviser like Mr. Zhongli. And the people of Tongzhuang, under the request of Anping, never mentioned Anping's work in front of Grandma Ruoxin, and only praised Anping as a promising young man.

Speaking of this business trip to Mondstadt, Anping also showed Grandma Ruoxin the light armor that Noelle had made for him, saying that it was made and given to him by a super beautiful white-haired female knight of the Mondstadt Knights.

Grandma Ruoxin never doubted Anping's words, and she always had a happy smile on her face since Anping came back.

Maybe for her old man, it doesn't matter how Anping is doing outside, as long as she can come back safely.

In the past ten days, in addition to chatting with Grandma Ruoxin and helping to deal with the big and small things of Qingce Village, Anping often takes the children to fly kites and play, and also goes to help Grandpa Jiangcheng farm and deliver meals.

Grandpa Jiang Cheng is getting older and older, and his mind is becoming less and less sober, and he will always regard Anping as his deceased daughter, and Anping can only sigh.

Ten days later, Anping was about to set off for Liyue Harbor again, if not reluctant.

Although the captain had promised him a month's vacation after his trip to Mondstadt, it was now nearly twenty days, including the time spent recuperating in Mondstadt and the time spent in Qingcezhuang, and nearly five days on the way back to Liyue from Qingcezhuang, so it was almost time to return to Liyue City.

After all, there was still a little time left to negotiate with Hall Master Hu about his thoughts on insurance.

And at Mondstadt, he asked Noelle to help him write a letter to the captain explaining his situation, but he did not receive a reply for a long time. When he returned to Qingce Zhuang Anping wrote another letter to the captain, but he had not received a reply until now, and Anping was still a little worried.

Although there was a possibility that the fleet would be hired to set off again after returning to Liyue, Anping still felt that he couldn't calm down, so he decided to go back to Liyue Harbor first.

So, with the blessings of the people of Qingce Village, Anping set out on his way back to Liyue City.

After passing through Ogihuazhou and beating up a few lost hilichurls and irascible slimes along the way, Anping rested for the night at the Wangshu Inn. Continuing his journey early the next morning, Anping finally made it back to Liyue Harbor before nightfall.

In the harbor full of ships, Anping did not see the ships of his own fleet.

Sure enough, did you get a new commission to go to sea?

An Ping was about to find a place to rest and recuperate, and when he went to talk to Hu Tao tomorrow, he happened to meet Lin Lin who was off work. This ship registrar who fishes in the harbor every day and writes poems, eager to be favored by the big shots.

She often asked Anping for help and told her that they had come back with a few boats this time.

"Hi Linlin, do you know where my fleet has been transporting cargo recently?"

An Ping just asked casually, wanting to know the approximate return time of the fleet, but he didn't expect Lin Lin's next words to make his heart cold by half.

"Huh? Anping? You almost didn't recognize how you were dressed in a foreigner's clothes, but you seemed to be dressed well. But didn't you follow the fleet to deliver the goods of the Northland Bank to the Solstice? This is a work that makes the other captains who have received the news envious of them..."

"Northland Bank? Sent to the solstice? When? ”

Shocked, An Ping looked at Lin Lin incredulously and asked.

"Just more than twenty days ago, what? Didn't your captain tell you? ”

More than twenty days ago? Isn't that the time they sent Mondstadt?

"Lin Lin, are you sure you're not mistaken? Are you sure my fleet hasn't returned to Liyue Harbor during this time? ”

"I'll miss the wrong ship, but if I get this important information wrong, it's not just about getting my wages deducted... What's more, if your fleet had come back in the past few days, I wouldn't have remembered it..."

Lin Lin left Anping, who was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and left, although she sensed from Anping's reaction that something was probably happening, but she instinctively chose to escape, after all, she was just a small person, and she didn't dare to be involved in such a big incident as the Northland Bank.

An Ping took a deep breath and made a decision.

It's a blessing for a little person like him to be able to escape by chance, but if he were involved, I'm afraid that one more nameless corpse would sink under the harbor of Liyue...

"Lord Xiaoyu, I have something important to report!"

But he is Anping, who values love and righteousness, and has an Anping who will repay kindness.

The captain didn't look at the wrong person.

Anping told Xiaoyu, the manager of Liyue's General Affairs Department, who was stationed in the harbor, about his fleet. The fact that Liyue's fleet had disappeared after its journey to Mondstadt was quickly taken seriously, and information was sent to the higher-ups one by one.

The head of the Northland Bank was brought to Anping shortly afterwards and confronted him on the spot.

In the face of An Ping's questioning, the pampered old man didn't even raise his eyelids to look at him.

"I thought it was going to be something to toss my old bones at night."

The person in charge of the Northland Bank waited until the emotional An Ping finished speaking, and then slowly spoke word by word.

"Here is the Power of Attorney from the Northland Bank, which clearly states that the shipment was shipped from Liyue to Solstice, and the signature of your captain, and if there is any problem with this signature, you can ask someone to check it. Besides, the fleet registered in the registry office of your port is the winter solstice, and it also has the autograph of your captain, so it is impossible for us small businessmen doing business in a foreign land to change both records. ”

There was not even a slight tremor in the old man's shrill voice.

"You're lying! So how do you explain my name on this list of going to sea! I'm standing here now! ”

Anping also took out the corresponding evidence.

"Who knows, maybe your captain deliberately wrote a few more people in order to earn more commissions, and we haven't checked it, and there is not even our signature on it."

From beginning to end, the old man was not in a hurry, and he didn't even look at Anping with his eyes.

"If you really doubt it, why don't you send a fleet out at sea to search for this fleet we have commissioned? Don't you have the famous Southern Cross fleet in Liyue, and I believe it won't take long to prove who is lying. ”

"But when the time comes, I will also tell the reporter of the Steambird newspaper about this extortion incident that was ordered to be summoned by outsiders without investigation."

The officer in charge of the case frowned and announced that both sides were temporarily stepping down.

In the end, Anping got the news that the other party was acquitted due to insufficient evidence.
