In Genshin Impact, No One Understands Holy Relics Better Than Me

Also, if this guy has a way, Ying probably has seen General Raiden by now.

"I thought the local snake had any ability!" Xia Xia put on a look of contempt, who told him that he didn't have the ability to take the initiative to bring it up!

Thomas didn't mind and joked, "Meetings in this world are always unpredictable. Maybe you will meet General Thunder and Lightning on a well-fed afternoon?"

It was said earlier that General Raiden hardly ever showed up except for the eye-hunting order, so where did he meet him on the street? Could it be the second generation of Zhongli? Besides, even if it is a chance encounter, you can't recognize it!

"Cut." Xia Xian was too lazy to deal with these nonsense, and continued to follow.

I noticed that Thomas didn't take him for a walk, but purposefully walked forward to the door of a chamber of commerce building.

The two stopped, only to hear Thomas pretending to be mysterious: "How do you know that I can't introduce you to General Thunderbolt?"

"Really?" Xia Tian was suspicious.

Big Sister Beidou said that he was a local snake from the outlying islands. Since it is a local snake, can his tail reach Inazu Castle?

Thomas nodded confidently: "Hehe, if you mobilize all resources, there will always be a way, but before that... the road is also a very expensive business, you understand?"

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, very much like those businessmen who were ready to charge sky-high prices.

Xia Xia answered bluntly: "For Mora, I really didn't bring much! If you look at money at the level of your rice wives, I'm afraid I won't be able to give that much..."

"Hahaha, I didn't mean to ask you to pay Mora, but to help each other... If you want to get what you want, you must first help solve some of the troubles of others."

Thomas pointed to the signboard of the building next to it, and there were four big characters "The Chamber of Commerce of All Nations".

Returning to the game routine, if you want to meet General Raiden, you must complete the prerequisite tasks, otherwise you will get a familiar sentence: the area ahead, let's explore it later!

Unfamiliar with life and new here, I know the rules very well in summer: "There is no free lunch in the world, I understand, tell me! Is there anything I can help?"

"It's really reliable." Thomas nodded with satisfaction, and then talked about his recent troubles: "The situation is like this, as I said before, the members of the Chamber of Commerce of Nations have been in the predicament of survival, and some situations seem to have intensified recently. …”

"The president of their chamber of commerce is named Jiurisu. He is a good friend of mine. He has been in a hurry recently. I think you may be able to help him."

Thomas stood by the signboard and pointed at the foreigner with a sad face at the reception desk.

It's already dark, so we must hurry up and get things done while we can still find someone.

Watching Xia Xia walked straight forward, the foreigner who was still suffering from headaches greeted him with a smile as much as possible: "Oh? My friend, are you here to seek the protection of the Chamber of Commerce of the Nations?"

Strange foreigners came to the Ten Thousand Nations Chamber of Commerce and thought with their toes that they must have been embarrassed by the lackeys of the shogunate, so they came to ask for help... There are too many such things.

Going out is not easy, and the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce naturally helps if it can, but most of the time, it can only be comfort and let you open up.

Seeing Thomas who followed him, his face became even more enthusiastic: "Ah, Mr. Thomas, why are you here?"

There is a small plate of dried fruits, melon seeds, peanuts, etc. on the counter, which the president uses to satisfy his cravings.

Thomas naturally grabbed a handful and introduced while eating: "This is Summer, my friend. Maybe he can help you solve the troubles you have encountered recently."

Seeing that Xia Xia was greedy, he also grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started eating. The phenomenon of human-to-human transmission, Jiulisu also followed.

In this way, the three of them chatted while knocking the seeds.

Xia Xia asked, "Is there any difficulty in the chamber of commerce recently?"

Jiulisu shook his head with a wry smile: "Difficulties... Difficulties... I'm used to being in a dilemma, bumping into walls everywhere."

Looking at Toma, from his affirmative smile, he confirmed his trust in Xia Xia, and then looked at the shogunate troops who were not patrolling around, and then complained:

"After the promulgation of the country-locking order, the scope of activities of our foreign businessmen has been restricted. Although we are subject to various restrictions, we can still live a good life... but those who pursue mercenary purposes can be identified!"

Almost gritted his teeth, after saying the name "thief", he paused for a few seconds in anger.

"High taxes, unreasonable rules and regulations, that's all..."

No matter how angry, in the end, there was only a helpless sigh: "The worst thing is that during this time, the new tax law has just been issued, and the form of tax that needs to be paid has actually changed from Mora to a kind of "crystallized bone marrow". goods. "

"Crystalline bone marrow?" Xia Xia looked at Thomas for an explanation.

Thomas explained: "Actually, a few months ago, I didn't hear about this stuff. Until half a month ago, the old businessman from Liyue recognized it and said that it was the material that he transported to the Winter Kingdom when he was young. I heard that and……"

He wasn't sure if uttering the following key words would cause panic, so he put it in Xia Xia's ear and used a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I heard that it has something to do with the scum of the devil, and the "crystallized bone marrow" of the rice wife really only has Only near the corpse of the **** snake on Bain Island..."

The dregs of the demon **** were collected as taxes and shipped to the Winter Kingdom...

Xia Xia's face was solemn. This seemed to be a more serious incident than the known conspiracy to "seize the heart of God".

However, there is not much information at the moment, so I don't have time to think about it.

He continued to listen to Jiurisu complaining about his troubles: "Yeah, isn't it deliberately embarrassing to ask everyone to find something they haven't heard of at all? But there's no way, we can only search for this "crystallized bone marrow" as much as possible, and then use it as a Taxes are paid. "

"But later I found out that this is just drinking poison to quench thirst. With the increasing demand for taxes paid, the price of external "crystallized bone marrow" is also rising... Until later, there was only one merchant left. In stock, you can't buy it anywhere else! "

The follow-up development is easy to guess. After being monopolized by the merchant, the price will inevitably rise, but due to the pressure of the law, the merchant has to buy it again.

In this way, a vicious cycle is repeated.

Jiurisu sighed: "After calculating, the current "tax" is almost more than our profit... If it continues like this..."

Xia Tian still has the last trace of her trust in the "government agency" of Inaba: "What about the investigation? They should know about this, right? Have you discussed it?"

"Acquisition?" Jiulisu sneered very bleakly: "In this land full of thunder, who can hear the voices of us merchants in desperation?"

I looked at the pendulum clock on the counter, which was brought from my hometown, and I couldn't help but see things, and my sorrow came from it: "Alas... Fontaine, Fontaine, my hometown... I miss you so much... …”

If it was just him, maybe he really went back.

However, when the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations was established, and was embraced by fellow merchants as its president, he could not only think about himself, but also those friends who were in foreign countries.

Trouble understands.

Thomas crossed his chest with his arms and asked Xiang Xia, "What do you think of this matter? How do you solve it? Are you going to persuade Kanding to follow?"

Perhaps the previous sentence "This is not bullying honest people!" gave Thomas the illusion that Xia Xia was a little naive, and he would actually ask "go to persuade Kanding to pursue".

"President, they have tried many times? If you can persuade them, you won't be so troubled." Xia Xia looked solemn: "Perhaps, the current situation of the businessmen is the purpose of the determination."

Giving the tax money into "Crystalline Bone Marrow" is most likely a result of collusion with the idiots, which means that this rule of thumb has been infiltrated by the idiots.

And the businessman who only had stock, even thinking about it with chrysanthemums, must be the collusion between officials and businessmen.

Kanding pursues the collection of "Crystalline Bone Marrow", and then sells part of it to the fools to complete the cooperation, and part of it is sold to other merchants at a high price through the hands of the merchant to obtain a large amount of Mora, to fill the real tax to pay for the upper class, and even some of them can still be used. Make another profit.

In this cycle, eat both ends.

"The investigation and practice are rotten to the core... Where is the wife of rice? Is it hopelessly rotten too? General Thunderbolt, what did you give to the wife of rice?"

Xia Xia clenched his fists. He never considered himself a righteous partner, but there was no room for darkness in his eyes.

"Who is that businessman? Where is it? How is the situation?"

Three consecutive questions, with piercing eyes, made Jiurisu shiver, and hurriedly replied: "The businessman's name is "Werner", in fact, he is not a native of Inawa, he used to be in the Chamber of Commerce of the Nations... but Later, we severed the relationship. "

It seemed to be another past event, and Jiulisu sighed repeatedly: "Hey, the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce treated him well, but later affected by various laws, the members of the chamber of commerce were unable to protect themselves... He also quit the chamber of commerce, and the relationship even worsened. ."

Looking at Xia Xia, he pleaded, "As someone outside the chamber of commerce, and a foreigner who is new to the island, he should relax his vigilance, and maybe he can ask what's going on... Just under a tree by the seaside in a residential area, there are The cargo transfer point he set up, where he should be found."

Xia Xia didn't hesitate, and immediately responded: "I see, leave it to me!"

So happy, I was teased by Thomas next to me: "A promise to be so refreshing, you are very enthusiastic! It seems that you have a lot of experience in helping people?"

"Enthusiastic?" Xia Tian didn't think so: "I'm a person who is afraid of trouble! If possible, I wish I could do nothing..."

He stopped, tapped his knuckles on the armor of Thomas' shoulders, and said with a look on his face: "But there is no way, can I refuse the test you gave me? Otherwise, where can I find someone to lead me to see General Thunderbolt? Do you agree?"

Thomas was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "Haha, you are smarter than I thought! However, although I have the intention to regard this as a test for you, it is indeed a difficult problem that I have been unable to solve. If you can help solve it, I believe that the Chamber of Commerce of all countries will be grateful to you!"

He especially emphasized: "Don't underestimate them. Although they are restricted everywhere on the outlying islands, if you want to get something new, it really depends on them!"

Fresh stuff? Fruits and vegetables? I don't cook by myself in summer.

Originally, the two walked side by side, but Xia Xia was so aggressive that he threw away Thomas directly, which made him very worried and suspicious: "By the way, what are you going to do? You won't choose to use violence, right?"

Xia Xia disagreed: "What? Can't the local snake deal with violent incidents? What else is the local snake called?"

Looking at that appearance, it seems to be right.

After all, it is the young man who just arrived on the island!

"Hey, do you also know that he is the person who pursued the investigation? If he really threatened with violence..." Thomas rarely panicked, and solemnly reminded: "The investigation is carried out on the outlying islands, but it is more effective than General Thunderbolt. Existence, you only need an official document, you will be unable to move an inch in the whole territory of Dao wife..."

"Don't worry, I have always used "virtue" to convince people. "

Xia Xia did think about "threatening by force", but after seeing the businessman's appearance, he had another idea.

It's actually a Mond.

Chapter 651 Who is not interested in widows

Although Thomas is not a member of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations, his close contact with him will also make the "traitor of the Chamber of Commerce" Vernara highly vigilant.

So, together with a few merchants who were eagerly waiting to purchase "Crystalline Bone Marrow" as a tax, he waited in the herbal tea shop in the distance, and let Xia Xia pass by alone.

It was late at night, and most of the vendors started to clean up their stalls, calculating today's income and the expenses to be used to buy "Crystalline Bone Marrow" later, they heard a few sighs: Hey, this day is a waste!

As the only supplier of "Crystalline Bone Marrow" at present, Werner, who is under the tree by the sea, just bid farewell to the shogunate officials who came to join him, and handed over almost all the proceeds from the day.

Every now and then, he would ask himself: I betrayed the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations, and squeezed my former partners under the persecution of the regulations, what did I get in the end? I just barely make ends meet, but I'm restricted from returning to my hometown, and I'm carrying a bad name on my back... Hey, I really want to go back to Mond, my hometown of freedom, but where can I go!

Sighing in her heart, she didn't notice the strange man who walked in.

"Hello."

Werner didn't wake up from his trance until Xia Xia spoke: "Huh? Unseen faces, new ones?"

Xia Xia nodded: "Yes, I just landed on the island recently."

The businessman was not polite at all, showing arrogance trying to scare off people: "Why? Don't have eyes to come to Dao's wife to do business? Let's go back quickly! Liyue, Mond, Fontaine, there is nothing better than here. Good business!"

In the end, his tone slowed down, but instead, he felt a little sincere.

Xia Xia said, "I heard that the crystallized bone marrow used as tax is only available here..."

"Want to buy it?"

Werner knocked on the cargo box next to it, which was covered with a cloth, and it was estimated that the crystallized marrow was inside.

Xia Xia shook his head: "No, I just want to know where these crystallized marrow come from?"

This question immediately raised his vigilance.

Werner shook his hand displeasedly: "Go, go, do you understand the rules? I've told you the source of the goods. Can I still do my business? Trade secrets, do you understand trade secrets?"

He used to be an astute businessman. He raised his head and looked into the distance. He found a few businessmen who were secretly looking here in the herbal tea shed. They all had to pay for crystallized bone marrow recently, but they thought the price was too high. Been noisy about it.

"Oh~ I see, did the Kurisu gang ask you to intercede and reduce the price?" Werner snorted softly, "Oh, I can't help them, and the price is a lot for me!"

He threw his hands and drove him away: "Let's go, let's go, tell Jiurisu and the others, they should thank me well if they can buy goods from me. Without me, they can't even pay the difference, how dare they bargain?"

The attitude is quite poor, not like a businessman who can talk about everything. Regarding the crystallized bone marrow, he likes to buy it or not. It seems that no matter how much he sells, he can't make any money.

In order to avoid further anger, Xia Xia did not talk about the transaction, and changed the subject: "Are you from Mond?"

At this time, Werner noticed the summer dress.

Although the black hair features indicate that he is not from Mond, the clothes are indeed from Mond's hometown. He immediately softened his attitude: "Yes, you also came from Mond?"

"Well, listen to the wind, "it" asked me to come to you. "

What Werner said in summer makes Werner a little nostalgic. In his hometown, people often talk about the "wind" of freedom when speaking.

But at the same time, I am a little puzzled, why is it called "it made me come to you"?

"It" is... wind?

The bangs were blown.

got windy.

Suddenly, there was a wind field around, with the fresh scent of dandelion...

Werner was immediately put in place, unable to speak for a long time, and a majestic feeling of homesickness rose in his heart.

Does Xia Xia want to use the atmosphere of his hometown to influence this businessman who has left his hometown? of course not……

He intends to use more intense and direct means to interrogate in the name of Fengshen.

He tried to use elemental power to create a wind field that could express his identity, but when he drove the power with the thought of "Let Werner feel the wind of Mond!", the source of power changed.

From the sacred relic of the Eye of God to the faith accumulated by the Heart of God, the elemental power is constantly pouring out.

Helping the Mond people is also for Mond, so you can get power from Mond's beliefs, is that the understanding?

While Xia Xia was surprised, Werner stumbled and said, "You don't have the eye of God, why can you use elemental power..."
