Chapter 76

When Keqing looked at Takumi's collapsed face, she couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Does it take so much effort to make this thing?

"Are you okay?"

"Brother Takumi, are you okay?"

Keqing and Klee asked in unison.

Hearing the words of the two, Takumi shook his head.

"I'm fine."

"In the future, it's still better to import this stuff."

"It's fine to do it once or twice, but if I do it more often, I suspect I'm going to have a problem."

"Well, if we really can't buy it, then let Zhongli do it."

At the end, Takumi's expression became strange.

Would it be okay to let Zhongli handle this?

Maybe letting him experience the feeling of being completely drained would be interesting.

When Keqing heard Takumi say this, she didn't think much about it.

Instead, she nodded.

She thought it was feasible.

After all, the Emperor is omnipotent!

If the Emperor did it, he definitely wouldn't end up feeling hollowed out like Takumi.

Thinking of this, Keqing silently gave a thumbs up.

Takumi got this done and even said to the workers there:

"Next, you can quickly handle these twenty."

"Let the alchemists process them and place them on the completed buildings."

Hearing what Takumi said, the workers nodded.

"Okay, Mr. Takumi."

"We'll get it done right away."

For them, saving the grinding process was a good thing.

After all, they really didn't want to polish these things.

It was just too troublesome.

If they weren't careful, the material would shatter.

And the air would be filled with dust.

It was really a hassle.

If they could avoid grinding, that would be best.

After getting things done, Takumi left with Keqing and the others.

Keqing needed to go to the construction site next.

Meanwhile, Takumi took Klee and Shenhe toward the high-voltage tower.

By this time, the high-voltage tower had already been constructed.

If everything went smoothly, the wires could be connected to the power plant by the end of the day.

So, Takumi needed to be there to supervise.

As for Klee, she was just tagging along for fun.

She had nothing else to do anyway.

While Takumi was busy, many merchants from Mondstadt visiting Liyue Harbor were talking to Ningguang about business.

Diluc even bought an entire building.

At the same time, he rented a shop in the mall.

This wave of investment made him the biggest spender.

Since Diluc had spent so much money, Ningguang was naturally very pleased.

So she decided to give Diluc a car.

She immediately sent someone to write a letter to Takumi.

She asked Takumi to prepare a vehicle similar to Hu Tao's for Diluc.

After all, he was a VIP client.

Just ten minutes later, the letter from Ningguang reached Takumi's hands.

After reading it, Takumi was speechless.

However, he had no complaints about Ningguang's decision.

After all, Diluc had spent billions of Mora.

A car was nothing in comparison.

Takumi muttered to himself before turning to a maid at Wangshu Inn:

"Okay, I understand."

"Go tell Feiyun Commerce Guild to inform Ningguang that I'll handle it."

The maid nodded and left immediately to pass on Takumi's message.

Once that was done, Takumi put the matter aside.

When Diluc arrived, they could discuss it then.

Once he arrived, Takumi would send him to a driving range for lessons before letting him take the car back.

While Takumi was busy, Ningguang received his confirmation.

She smiled at Diluc and said:

"Mr. Diluc, I have prepared a small gift for you."

"When you return, please visit Wangshu Inn to find Takumi."

Diluc's eyes flickered with surprise at Ningguang's words.

However, his face remained expressionless.

"Thank you."

He didn't say much.

Since it was a gift from Ningguang, it had to be something interesting.

After signing the contract with Ningguang, Diluc didn't linger any longer.

He took his leave.

Ningguang escorted him to the door and reminded him to pick up his gift at Guili Plains.

Diluc acknowledged her words and then left with his butler.

This trip had been very rewarding.

Liyue's developments had surprised him.

If possible, he wanted similar progress in Mondstadt.

Unfortunately, Mondstadt's upper management was deeply corrupted.

He could only hope that the Acting Grand Master could handle those rotten officials.

Diluc arrived at a bus stop and boarded a passing bus.

As he and his butler sat down, he gazed at the bustling streets of Liyue Harbor.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It truly was the financial center of the world.

Impressive.

When would Mondstadt reach this level of prosperity?

With anticipation, Diluc began his journey back.

He was also curious about the small gift Ningguang had prepared.

As the sun set, they arrived at Guili Plains.

They planned to rest there for the night before returning to Mondstadt the next day.

When Takumi saw Diluc arrive, he invited him to dinner.

Klee's eyes widened when she saw Diluc.

"It's the strange adult!"

She knew who Diluc was.

She always called him the strange adult.

"Klee, this is Mr. Diluc."

"He used to be a knight too."

Takumi chuckled at Klee's words.

Klee knew Diluc but probably didn't know much about him.

And Diluc seemed to be the only person who hadn't received Klee's "Good Person Card."

For most people, Klee would hand out good person cards generously.

But Diluc had never received one.

He was the "strange person."

Well, aside from Diluc, everyone else was a good person.

When Diluc approached Takumi, he glanced at Klee.

"It's you."

After nodding to her, Diluc sat down.

Of course, he knew Klee.

She was Mondstadt's youngest Spark Knight.

The daughter of the renowned adventurer Alice.

He also recognized Klee's strength.

Despite his disdain for the Knights of Favonius, he acknowledged that few people could match Klee's power.

He was also well aware of Klee's battle records.

He had even witnessed her single-handedly blowing up a Hilichurl camp.

Though she was locked up afterward.

Klee stared at Diluc with curiosity.

Seeing him greet her, she blinked but said nothing.

She seemed a bit reserved in front of him.

Takumi looked at Diluc and smiled.

"Looks like your trip was fruitful."

"Ningguang asked me to prepare a small gift for you."

"But before I do, I hope Mr. Diluc can visit the driving range tomorrow."

Takumi got straight to the point.
