Chapter 38: Merchants' work efficiency is improved...
He said gently: "You are here."
Next to him, standing at the table, Finnick, who was originally concentrating on observing the tea-making process, noticed the person coming, let go of his hand from the edge of the table, turned around and greeted him politely:
"Please come in, guests. Tea is ready."
Kong and Paimon walked in with curiosity on their faces, scanning the surrounding furnishings until their eyes landed on the unfamiliar boy and Yiran who was looking at them calmly.
Zhong Li followed in two steps behind and closed the door.
Since the entrance CG starts with the perspective of Yiran pouring tea, the unknown new character Fincher is revealed at the end.
As a result, players were first struck by the stunning beauty, and then slowly focused their attention on the composition and atmosphere between the two people.
The amount of bullets that exploded caused the force of rules to quickly surge into Yiran's body from the screen.
"This hand is so long and white... I think it's good..."
"Stop, just play with the teacup with your hands like this, don't let your imagination run wild."
"…I didn't have any random thoughts."
"This antique shop owner's character is amazing"
"Logically speaking, the owners of antique shops in these corners should have a hidden, super-powerful identity."
"For example, the mysterious president of the Songlan Chamber of Commerce in Liyue Harbor."
"It seems like he has the qualities of a hidden boss. He looks weak on the surface (but in fact, he is not weak at all in terms of both his body and abilities)"
"Ah, I really like that long loose hair. If you could help me braid it or untie it..."
"President, I want to lie on that table."
"And the brown-haired boy next to him! He's also handsome and cute."
"The way he focused on watching the president make tea, he looked like a well-behaved dog."
"? What dog? The president already has me."
"But he's really handsome, like... he's the kind of handsome guy who's killed people before."
"What an abstract description haha"
"He has the same brown hair and golden eyes as Zhongli, but he gives off two completely different vibes."
"Zhongli's golden pupils gradually change from reddish brown to pure gold. To describe it in one word, they are a beautiful ornament in a beautiful setting.
But this dog's golden eyes are light gold and platinum, a very light color, with a gentle, pure and cold feeling."
"It smells so good."
"I'll beat them up whenever these two show up!"
Zhong Li first walked forward from the doorway that was one step behind. He looked at the five cups of tea that had just been poured and placed in front of their respective seats, feeling a little surprised.
According to his experience, if you want to preserve the best taste of this quality tea, it only takes a dozen seconds to brew.
Judging from the perfect tea aroma, Mr. Ran’s tea-making technique is obviously very sophisticated and his timing is extremely precise, just at the second when a few people come in.
"Mr. Ran knows we are coming?"
I smiled and made a joke naturally:
"Just think of it as if I have some mysterious superpower."
Zhong Li did not refute it and seemed to really believe it.
"I just visited you yesterday, and now I am disturbing you again... It's really not polite.
These are our gifts for you, Mr. Ran. Some Liyue specialties and famous wines, and a fan made of rice paper from my collection. I think it is very suitable for you, Mr. Ran."
Yiran took the folding fan with both hands. On it was printed a scene of lakes, mountains and pine forests sketched in ink.
The light ink after smudge surrounds the entire picture like mist, and just looking at it makes it feel full of poetry and elegance.
He looked serious, and stroked the fan lightly in a trance, then immediately came back and took the gift bag that was handed to him:
"Although I don't really need these... I like them... It's unexpected. Thank you, Sora, Paimon, and Mr. Zhongli."
He gestured for everyone to sit down, put the folding fan into his sleeve, and temporarily handed the gift bag to the boy next to him. Without any communication, Fenric took it naturally and turned around to put it away.
"If I'm not mistaken, you guys came to me to give me materials for the Immortal Ceremony."
Yiran straightened his sleeves, put his hands on the table, then looked at everyone and said helplessly:
"I was not thoughtful enough to communicate in advance, so everyone had to run around a few more times. I have asked someone to make the top-grade Night Stone into the instruments needed for the Immortal Sending Ceremony, but I haven't had time to make the colorful flower of the "Piao Miao Xian Yuan" type into an ointment..."
He looked at the blond boy who was sitting obediently beside him:
"Maybe I'll have to make another wasted trip."
Yi Ran was there and directly addressed the young man as "Kong", which was a familiar name. Naturally, Kong also subconsciously called "Yi Ran" by his name and never thought of calling him Mr. Ran.
Kong: "Yi Ran helped us with the last Immortal Summoning Ceremony. I didn't have time to thank him. This time, I have to thank Yi Ran for his help again... Just leave these small matters to us."
Paimon put his hands on his hips and said, "Yeah, yeah, we're really good at running errands, let alone just making a perfume!"
"I am a very self-conscious tool person"
"As long as you put an exclamation mark on your head, no matter how far away you are, there will always be a yellow-haired idiot running over to help you..."
Yiran smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
With the efficient assistance of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, after communication among the three people, matters such as paying three workers to prepare the crystal butterfly wood have been arranged by other people in the Chamber of Commerce, and will then be sent directly to Yujingtai together with the processed Yebo Stone.
Yiran had also contacted Grandma Ping in advance to borrow the dust bell through Yaoyao's connections.
Just like the 2.98 million pieces of Eternal Life Incense, we just need to wait for two people to go and get it.
Paimon sighed: "Is this what connections are... It feels so good to have a big friend to help you."
Kong and Zhongli agreed. As expected of a businessman, he was very efficient in both conversation and work. It felt like most of the issues had been resolved in just one cup of tea...
After the three of them said goodbye smoothly, Zhongli left first, saying that it was inconvenient to move around with so many people, and waited at the Seven Heavens Statue for Kong and Paimeng to prepare the ointment.
Kong nodded without noticing anything, tacitly acknowledging that Zhongli's behavior seemed to make sense but was actually just a way for him to slack off.
Until Kong experienced the outrageous rumor that spread throughout Liyue Harbor, which almost ruined his reputation - "looking for fragrant girls all over the city to target".
I was also shocked by Chunxiang Kiln's side business and the boss Ying'er's blatant teasing and the hints and metaphors that made people change...
The innocent yet not so innocent Sora dragged Paimon, who didn't understand anything, and ran away, with a wolfish look on his face, stumbling from Liyue Harbor towards the direction of the Seven Sky Statue.
“…………”
"What color am I now?"
"??? What do you mean not a drop left?"
"My...sister, you are so good..."
"This isn't right."
"I'm afraid it's not a fake plot...what are the forums saying?"
「12+」
"Is this still the original god??"
"Okay... I finally understand why Zhong Li ran away early."
"...Now I know why Yiran only bought the colorful flowers and didn't help prepare the ointment in advance."
"!!! These two old men!"
Bullet screen angry.
