Chapter 64 The competitive spirit of the thunder sister
Early the next morning, Safire bumped into Diluc as soon as he walked out of the Goethe Hotel. Apparently, this guy had been waiting here for a long time.
Safir frowned. She finally adjusted her mood today and planned to continue to see the progress of the original embryo. What is this guy planning to do now? With a hint of reluctance, she still took the initiative to speak: "Master Diluc is out shopping so early?"
Diluc still had a cold face, but there were deep bags under his eyes, and he seemed to have no energy. It was obvious that he had not slept well last night. He looked seriously at Safire, who had a puzzled look on his face: "I'm here to trade with you about the wine export trade of Chenxi Winery."
He would not be sleepy if he wanted to say this to Saffir: "Mr. Diluc told me earlier. I have had this intention for a long time. How about we go into the house to discuss it in detail?"
Diluc looked around, but still didn't go in. He just said: "This transaction is very important. I would like to invite you to Chenxi Winery to observe it, and then discuss the details of the transaction."
Safire agreed with Diluc's approach, sent someone to bring a message to Kunfeng, and then followed Diluc to Chenxi Winery.
She was very familiar with Chenxi Winery. All she could see were the large vineyards and the carefree flying crystal butterflies in the garden. Seeing this scene, Saffir couldn't help but sigh: "It is indeed a winery from Mondstadt." Pillars, such a size is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary small factories."
When it comes to his own winery, Diluc is also very confident: "The wine produced by Chenxi Winery should be at the forefront, not to mention the Seven Proud Countries, and the annual trade volume with Liyue Fontaine is also a figure that cannot be underestimated. .”
Safir also nodded to give face: "Although there is high-quality white wine in Zhidong, there is no red wine that can be compared with here. This is probably related to the weather in Zhiwin. After all, it is freezing over there, and white wine can keep away the cold. has a greater effect.”
"Miss Anmu, do you think there will be a market for my wine there?" Diluc planned to test the other party's tone first. In fact, he didn't really plan to make much money from this transaction. It was mainly used to open up the market.
Safir waved his hand: "The market is determined by demand, and demand can be influenced by trends. As long as a trend is set off, there will always be people who believe it is trendy and will follow suit and buy."
A glimmer of light flashed in Diluc's eyes. At first, he was worried that such trade was not strictly necessary for the Solstice Kingdom, and it might be difficult to balance the needs of both parties. But now it seems that Safiir doesn't care about these things. There is a high degree of confidence that a deal can be concluded.
"The price difference between import and export is huge. How much difference do you give for transportation from Mondstadt to Liyue?" This is considered to be inquiring about business secrets, and Diluc was hesitant to say it.
Then Safire seemed to understand and added: "I don't care what the cost price is here. Excluding the impact of transportation costs, the profit cannot exceed 5% of Liyue's, otherwise I will not do it." .”
Here she emphasized that 5% of the profit is not 5% of the total price, so the room for price increase will be much smaller. But who is Diluc? After a little analysis, she answered her question.
"Due to the transportation costs, Winter Kingdom is too far away, so the price will definitely be higher, but I can sell it at the same price as Liyue, so you don't have to worry about this."
Safire glanced at Diluc in surprise: "What? Are you planning to repay a favor?"
Diluc coughed dryly and explained: "These are two different things. I just think that if the target of the transaction is you, the benefits that can be obtained are not just Mora."
That's right, he was never after Mora. What Diluc valued more was not the apparent profits, but the hidden interests. Once you have this thread, you will have a little more leverage if you need to contact me for anything in the future.
Safire couldn't help but laugh. She thought of Qin, who was negotiating with her a while ago: "Has anyone ever told you that you and Qin are a good match?"
"Miss Anmu, please stop joking." Diluc frowned slightly, looking a little unhappy, but a faint blush appeared on his face.
Safire did not continue teasing, but added nonchalantly: "The marriage between the Gunnhild family and the Legenfund family is indeed worth looking forward to, but Qin is the backbone of that family, and it is impossible to marry outside. And you, Legenfeld The only descendant of the Genfende family, hehehehehe."
She smiled and left the vineyard, leaving behind a foolish clerk to sign a trade contract with Diluc. When Diluc saw Safiir leaving, he didn't hold back, but there was a hint of bitterness in the corner of his mouth. He naturally knew what Safiir knew well. That's how things are in the world. It can only be said that fate has a way with people, and he and Qin will be together no matter what. There was no way they could come together unless he gave up everything that belonged to the Leggenfund family and merged the entire family into Gunnhild.
At the Mondstadt Alchemy Workshop, Sugar and Kunfeng did not continue yesterday's work because two unexpected people came to the workshop.
Lisa, the rose witch with purple clothes and brown hair, and a great miko with pink hair and wearing a white miko uniform: Yae Kamiko.
Lisa looked at Sugar's alchemy notes indifferently, nodded from time to time, and then commented: "There is no problem with the theoretical model, but the material ratio needs to be studied, and Sugar, why do you have to force the use of crimson chalcedony as a sword? How about using bones to shape it?”
"The use of materials does not just depend on whether they are valuable or not. Sometimes simple materials can also exert incredible power. Although crystal ore and tin blocks are cheap, there is a reason why they have always been the main raw materials for weapons. Little girl, don't Innovate for the sake of innovation, and learn more ideas from other areas, maybe there will be miraculous results." Yae Shenzi also echoed.
Lisa raised her eyes and looked at her: "This is Inazuma's great shrine maiden, Lord Yaeguji, right? I didn't expect that Lord Yaeguji also has such a high attainment in alchemy."
"Haha, how can I compare with the genius of the Suron sect who has not been seen for a hundred years in the Order Academy? I just expressed my guess. If there is something wrong, please ask Miss Lisa to enlighten me." Yae Shenzi had a smile on his face. , choked back without mercy.
The two of them just looked at each other with smiles. Both Sha Tang and Kun Feng felt static electricity in the air, and the hairs on their bodies stood up.
In the end, Lisa changed the subject: "I wonder what the Lord Yaegongji is doing here? As an envoy to Mondstadt, it would be better for you to inform him in advance. Otherwise, like now, we won't have time to prepare." , it will be bad if you neglect it.”
Yae Shenzi showed an aggrieved expression: "Oh, I don't want to do that. I just came to find someone. I thought I could find someone just by going to Liyue. Who knew that guy didn't stay in Liyue properly and ran away?" He came here to join in the fun, so I had no choice but to chase him."
Lisa was wondering, who could bring this fox across two countries? Could it be that his feelings were deceived? Thinking of this, Lisa looked at Yae Shenzi with a hint of pity.
Yae Kamiko didn't know why Lisa suddenly looked at her like this. Just when she was about to ask a question, she suddenly took out a handful of royal coins, and Kagura's true meaning also appeared behind her. A Sesshō Sakura suddenly appeared at the door.
"Boom!" A bolt of lightning struck not far from the door, but it struck nothing. As the thunder light fell, curses also started to sound.
"Are you sick? Use this thing to hit me as soon as we meet!" came the girl's very recognizable voice, and several people in the room immediately knew the answer.
Saphire was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She was just about to check out the progress of Shantang and Kunfeng when she suddenly saw a Sesshosa Sakura appearing in front of her eyes. Fortunately, she hid quickly and was not caught. Hit it, otherwise at least a layer of skin will fall off.
Seeing that the blow missed, Yae Shenzi was not surprised. He lightly covered his lips with the cuff of his right hand and walked out slowly: "Teacher Su Jin is so skilled. This speed is already faster than lightning. I'll let Shadow Slash you next time." .You can escape it, right?"
Safire looked at the pink-furred fox walking in front of him, feeling a little helpless, and murmured to himself: "Why did the fox come here? It's so annoying, I don't have time to deal with her now."
"You just said you were a fox, right?" Yae Shenzi still kept a smile on his face, but the lightning in his eyes flashed, and he was obviously planning to continue to attack.
Realizing that he had made a mistake, Safiel nimbly dodged to avoid Sesshō Sakura's pursuit. Just when Yae Shenzi was still planning to continue hunting Safire, Lisa spoke: "It is not appropriate for Lord Yae Miyaji to take action in Mondstadt at will. Injuring people is a diplomatic incident, which is not very beneficial to Inazuma. "
"Yes, yes, you should calm down. If you haven't seen someone for a long time, you should say hello even if you don't give them a hug. Who would strike with lightning when you meet them?" Safire hurriedly spoke out without losing the opportunity.
Yae Shenzi looked at Lisa behind her, and then at Safir, who looked wary. Someone from the West Wind Knights was already rushing here, and she knew that the fight today would not be successful. So he put away Sesshō Sakura and sat on a chair beside him in boredom.
Soon, Qin ran over with a few people. Seeing the mess on the ground and the strange atmosphere of the people, she walked up to Lisa and asked about the reason.
Naturally, Lisa would not hide anything and directly told Qin what happened.
It turned out that when she was taking a walk this morning, she happened to see Sugar and Kun Feng who were busy studying in the alchemy workshop. Because Kun Feng was an outsider, she was very curious that such a stranger was actually helping Sugar with her research, so she wanted to When she found out, while she was analyzing the data, the uninvited guest Yae Kamiko also arrived, and what happened next became obvious.
Qin held her forehead with a headache, feeling a little lucky that this was not something caused by Keli. The injury was even more troublesome for the eighth-level palace minister. But fortunately, she came to see Safire, and it seemed that she could get rid of the burden. , but when high-level officials from other countries visit, it is somewhat inappropriate to hand over the reception task to Safire, who is also a diplomatic envoy from another country and the executive officer of the Fools.
Seeing Bai Qin's confusion, Lisa smiled: "Leave the reception work to me. I just plan to tell you about this matter. I will be here to participate in their research in the next few days. In the library, I have to ask you to take care of me."
"Lisa, are you...really okay?" Qin was very surprised that this fish monster actually took the job. It wasn't that she doubted Lisa's ability, but this person's attitude towards work has always been casual. , to a certain extent, Lisa is more like a true believer in the God of Wind than she is. The same fish monster, the same laziness and unwillingness to move. The same strength is unfathomable.
"Don't worry, I'm serious. After all, I am also very competitive."
