303 - Curiosity

Dolly was excited.

As a big businessman in Sumeru, her start was not satisfactory, and she was able to get to this day, and she was lucky enough to get Alice's attention, which is of course the biggest reason. This mysterious elf in a foreign land gave her too many chips, and the reason why she gave these things was light and simple, not to ask for anything in return, but because she saw the grievances and unwillingness of children, she happened to have some things, so she handed them over.

Between hard work and luck, in fact, luck is the first priority.

In the rest of her life, she will have countless lucky times and suffer many storms, but only the elf who handed her a hand when she was young will become the support for all her future actions.

Of course, it would not be appropriate to erase Dolly's personal efforts because of this.

There are very few people who get the opportunity, and there are also many people who waste the opportunity, and Dolly was able to get to the later position with nothing, and the personal choice is also worth a book.

However, most people don't really care about the suffering of others, and Dolly has no intention of telling everyone about her past struggles and choices.

It was only after some disappointment that she finally came out, and that's it.

"Lord Sage," said the businessman, who looked too young, with a relaxed expression, "fortunately. ”

Rama smiled gently: "Thank you for your hard work, this is a very important task, and it is very important for some of Sumeru's work in the future. ”

"What do you want to compensate for all your hard work during this time?"

Rama believes that they work for themselves, maybe some people are following themselves, but more people are following the benefits they can come up with.

This is very good, where you can talk about money, it is cliché to exchange feelings.

"I want to know what those vital jobs are." Dolly barely thought much of it.

"This is something that will be announced, and you plan to exchange your credit for this?" Rama was a little surprised.

"I thought you would explain your research on the power of the demon god and tell me that I could choose these as a reward." Dolly lifted her glasses and said with a smile.

"It's not a reward, it's a reward that one partner should pay after the other party completes the contract." Rama corrected his words, "Moreover, if I say so, you will not choose it even more." ”

This is not a secret.

Rama was not worried about the news getting out, he did not take the initiative to publicize it, but he never stopped the spread of the news.

The talents that can be selected in Sumeru are not as good as those from the entire continent.

There are very few people in this world who are interested in power, but it is definitely not nothing, and those who will be interested in power will at least have good beliefs.

If you have a little talent and strength, it's even more wonderful.

Rama does not intend to stay only in the territory of Sumeru, regarding faith, this is the path that Rama has chosen, and its development will inevitably be a war of conquest in the end.

Faith is usually a tool in His world, and whatever kind of denomination it can flourish in a country is itself used by the rulers to stabilize the people.

And in Teyvat, it is a wealth that can be weighed.

The seven gods of Teyvat never had any quarrels over their beliefs, but Rama didn't intend to follow this rule all the time, Sumeru was too small.

Fucarus had accumulated a nation's faith for hundreds of years, but only used a small amount of faith power to keep some machinery running, and most of the power was left behind the final sword, which cut off the throne of the god of water.

Putting aside the possibility that he was too cautious, so cautious that nine out of ten would not want to fall, that is, this knife really requires hundreds of years of savings.

Just breaking an ancient order also requires such a high price to pay.

What Rama is going to do is to replace the old order and become a new order, and the power he needs to pay and accumulate will only be more colossal than that of Phukaros.

It is unrealistic to expect Sumeru to make offerings at all.

Until then, all the attempts are worth trying.

"Your success has shaken many people, Great Sage." Dolly blinked, "My job at Fontaine wasn't all smooth sailing. ”

"But the results of your experiments have made most of the Fontaine nobles choose to support it."

No one could refuse the news of the confrontation with the Northland Bank.

Northland Bank has been rooted on the mainland for too long, which means that it is deeply entrenched, and it also means that many of its details have been seized by others.

Includes······· How much it can make money.

It's a gold-swallowing beast, but once it's in operation, it can bring more than ten times the return?

What's more, it was a time before Morax had an accident, when Liyue had a complete monopoly on coinage.

They were impressed by the reward they knew, and no one thought that this was the true money-making power of the Northland Bank, and it was to be expected that the Fatui would only get more out of it.

After Morax's death, none of these bigwigs would refuse the opportunity to fight against the Northland Bank, not because the Fatui were not prestigious, but because the danger was insignificant compared to such interests.

The cooperation itself is not worth hesitating, the death of the god of rock is an extraordinary accident, but the death of his life must not affect only himself.

When it comes to the ancient currency of Mora, the whole world of Teyvat will be in some kind of turmoil because of his death.

In the midst of the storm, the most well-prepared and the largest is the Northland Bank, the second and third are not united, and the boss can easily break it, and finally let everyone lose the opportunity to resist.

But this kind of thing of cooperation, saying that each has a ghost, has already been somewhat restrained.

Who will lead, who will divide the interests, to what extent will you fight with the enemy, and who will be impressed by the enemy's chips······· There are too many things to maneuver in it, and when interests are involved, when it is not possible to use force to complete the unity of opinion, it can only grind time.

Dolly is a qualified businessman who understands the minds of the powerful and knows how to convince them.

In addition, Navillette and Funina are really not short-sighted, and it can only be said that it will take a little time to achieve the final results.

But Rama's results became some kind of stroke of genius.

The establishment and stability of the bank is related to Mora.

Rama's research, on the other hand, is about the strength and longevity of the individual.

Not to mention the power of the demon god, no one thinks that Rama will use the means of creating gods on outsiders, but even the power of a lower grade can gain hundreds of years of life, right?

These demon gods, the lifespan of which one is less than a thousand years? I'm only half, only half of a thousand years, and I'm satisfied!

Wealth is more precious than life or anything else in the absence of wealth.

But in front of people with wealth, life is much more precious than wealth, and this pursuit of life has made Dolly's negotiation efficiency much more efficient.

Fontaine is also in fact a kingdom system, and the decisions of the Villette, or the god of water, are enough to represent everyone. But in practice, they are not only husbands like Rama after all, they don't care about other people's opinions at all, and even if they are far superior in power and personality to all ordinary people, they will inevitably have to make some kind of compromise in the end.

Navillette herself did not intend to refuse, and with the support of the majority, Dolly got the results she couldn't get in advance.

Because of this, Dolly doesn't actually have much sense of accomplishment.

She is very satisfied with the fact that she has earned money.

But the means of making money had nothing to do with herself, and it was purely Rama's help in reducing the dimensionality that changed the minds of these Fontaine magnates, which made Dolly a little frustrated.

"You've seen the nobles of Fontaine chasing this kind of thing, but you're not tempted?" Rama asked, "You don't care about longevity and want to get some secrets from me that will be revealed sooner or later········"

Such chips were tempting enough, but Dolly had no choice.

"Secrets are also time-sensitive, you will announce things sooner or later, but how long you want to postpone it, it's up to you." Dolly said with a smile.

"It's a secret of little use to you, and it doesn't hurt if you want to know it." Rama did not hesitate, "I intend to plunder the faith of the gods of the Seven Kingdoms and bring Teyvat under the rule of one god. ”

All are one, and the will of all the people is enveloped, and it becomes the only one.

Rama didn't know the cost of doing so, but he couldn't think of any worse than before, and he was able to walk on this path without any scruples.

"To embark on this path, you must first be able to give the people a lot of mora, so that they know that faith in me can lead a better life."

"I will open up the means of research and let more people gain power from my research, if they are willing to believe in me." Rama said, "The gods will plant a seed in the hearts of believers and then, when needed, take away the power of the seed." ”

Strictly speaking, the Great Mercy Tree King also had a similar operation, he took the people's dreams and used them to resist the infection of forbidden knowledge.

Rama didn't want dreams, but the power that the seed cultivated in them.

This is still a hypothesis, and even with a few subjects of special interest, Rama will not be able to give what he wants, let alone expand his target to all nations who recite His name.

But that's all the try, Dolly asked, and Rama dared to say.

Nothing can be said to people, anyway, this kind of attempt, the difference between telling and telling a joke is really not much.

"Do you have such ambitions, and Sumeru will be caught in a war?" Dolly inquired earnestly.

She believed.

"Theoretically not." Rama hesitated, "The gods of Teyvat are not as you and I thought at first, and their true faces will surprise all who believe in them. ”

"Taking away faith from them should not lead to war."

But the battle for faith is a war in itself.

Rama was sure that Wendy couldn't possibly have any attitude towards such a thing, and that the belief of the god of wind would not be more important to him than a bottle of cider.

But the Knights of Favonius and the Church of Favonius will definitely not have such an attitude.

It is obviously impossible for the Seven Stars and the Shogunate to sit idly by and watch the flow of the god's faith, and they will inevitably come up with a tough attitude to solve this problem.

But Rama didn't care.

As long as this kind of thing is not really advanced to the link of war, it doesn't matter what kind of verbal war.

He didn't have a lot of time, but he didn't have a lot of patience.

Anyway, if you fail, it's a big deal to die.

"Can you guarantee that?" Dolly asked again.

She cares about it.

There weren't any large-scale human kingdom fights in Teyvat, but some small-scale battles, from the fatal blows of Kanria five hundred years ago, still left some records on Teyvat's history.

Dolly is sure that such an adventure will definitely not be a good thing.

In particular, this consequence could have been avoided and was entirely the result of Rama's own selfish desires, which she did not want to accept.

Rama swore that it was Rama's business, but she didn't believe it.

"I'm not absolutely sure." Rama shook his head, "You want to listen to my arrangement, I told you, but I only told you. ”

I didn't ask for your opinion, you asked, and I thought you could know, and I told you.

That's all.

Dolly was dumbfounded.

"Is there anything I can do to stop you?" She asked Rama.

"I brought this up, and you ask me how I can stop myself?" Rama looked strange, "Well, I know I don't have a good reputation, but this matter is approved by the god of grass." ”

"How about giving Him a precious trust?" Rama proposed, "You just did a great job for Sumeru, and the first thing you did when you came back was to turn your face with me, it wouldn't be pretty." ”

"At least you wait, how about you give me some time to make up the charges, and then you're running to backstab me?"

He said this as if he was joking, and Dolly herself was not sure whether Rama had taken it to heart.

This should not be a piece of intelligence that can be exposed now.

Any normal person, they may be able to accept the power seed given by Rama, but if the seed carries some kind of factor that can control them, they will naturally choose to refuse.

Ordinary people's pursuit of power is definitely not so stubborn, even if they give up everything, they must be so persistent.

If Rama gives them power at the price of controlling everything they do, then Rama's plan can be cut in half.

Few people in Teyvat are willing to accept this price.

But Rama was not angry when she said this, and she didn't seem to intend to rule her out as a factor of instability.

Dolly suddenly felt a little weak, "What you said is really right, I knew that it was better to accept your initial payment." ”

Out of the habit of a businessman, she chose to inquire about Rama's secrets rather than just take the reward and leave.

But it's that damn curiosity that is now making things trouble.
