Chapter 215

Amber and the others who came from Mondstadt looked at Takumi with curious eyes.

Were slimes really worth that much money?

Noticing their intrigued expressions, Takumi explained while eating.

"Slimes are very useful now."

"For example, Cryo Slimes are widely used by fishermen."

"When they catch fish, the fish will rot if left for too long, so they keep a Cryo Slime in a cage."

"The slime radiates elemental energy and freezes the fish, preserving their freshness."

"Electro Slimes, on the other hand, can be used to generate electricity."

"Hydro Slimes are useful for water purification."

"Although their purified water isn't immediately drinkable, it's the cleanest water source once processed."

"Pyro Slimes are now commonly used for cooking."

"Geo Slimes can be used to produce stones for construction."

"As for Anemo Slimes, they are useful in markets and cities to prevent bad odors."

"The air currents they generate can keep marketplaces and public areas fresh."

"In the future, if wind turbines are introduced in Mondstadt, Anemo Slimes could be used to generate electricity."

"Overall, slimes have many applications."

Hearing Takumi's words, Amber's eyes widened.

This was quite the revelation.

"No wonder slimes are in demand here."

"I had no idea they had so many uses."

Amber couldn't help but be amazed.

Takumi nodded and continued with a smile.

"If nothing changes, slimes from Mondstadt will start being captured as well."

"Actually, many monsters have their uses."

"It's just that people haven't figured them out yet."

"We've already captured most of the slimes in Liyue."

"By now, someone business-minded has probably already issued requests in Mondstadt to capture more."

"They'll make a profit by selling them here."

Hearing this, Lumine's eyes suddenly lit up.

Right!

Why couldn't she do the same?

She could go to Mondstadt, capture slimes, and sell them for a profit.

Lumine suddenly became excited.

This could work!

She just needed a way to transport them.

Thinking about this, her bright eyes gleamed with determination.

Liyue offered good prices for slimes.

If she bought them cheaply in Mondstadt and transported them back, she could make a fortune.

She only needed a vehicle.

It was a brilliant plan.

Lumine made up her mind.

First, she needed to finalize her house purchase.

Once that was done, she would take action!

She wasn't quitting her job—she wanted it all!

By posting slime-catching requests in Mondstadt, adventurers like Bennett would jump at the chance.

Then, as their employer, she would be in charge.

Takumi noticed the cunning look in Lumine's eyes and immediately understood.

She was really going to do it.

Takumi couldn't help but chuckle, but he didn't interfere.

She could do as she pleased.

Meanwhile, Amber and Barbara were still fascinated by Liyue and asked Takumi many questions.

During the meal, he patiently answered them all.

Once they had eaten their fill, they decided to explore the city.

Klee and the other little ones would serve as their guides.

They would also stop by the tavern to have some fun.

Takumi chose to leave them be.

Lumine, however, followed him to the General Affairs Department to finalize her house purchase.

On the spot, she spent nearly all her savings.

Even so, she still had a few hundred thousand Mora left.

She planned to use it to fund her slime-catching business.

After finishing the house transaction, Lumine quickly left.

Now, she had to secure transportation.

Using her motorcycle wouldn't be enough.

She needed a bigger vehicle.

Many people in Liyue had bought cars.

She needed to find business partners.

She would hire them to help transport slimes from Mondstadt to Liyue.

She wasn't sure if anyone was already doing this.

But she would start first.

Worst case scenario, she would just pay for transportation fees.

No big deal.

Paimon soon learned about Lumine's plan.

Hearing her idea, Paimon was dumbfounded.

"Wait, you can do that?!"

This was outrageous!

But thinking about it, it did seem like a way to make lots of money.

Paimon was suddenly excited!

That night, Amber, Noelle, and the others followed Klee back to Takumi's manor.

Diona stayed at the tavern with Qiqi and the others.

Keqing and Shenhe had also returned.

Seeing Amber and Barbara arrive, no one was surprised.

Takumi had already informed them.

Keqing and Shenhe had even helped prepare their rooms.

After introductions, Amber learned who Keqing and Shenhe were.

She was particularly shocked about Keqing.

"You're the Yuheng Star of the Liyue Qixing?"

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Keqing was around the same age as her, yet she held such an important position?

That was incredible.

Keqing, however, didn't seem affected by the compliment.

Instead, she praised Amber.

"You're impressive too."

Amber had achieved the rank of Outrider Knight at a young age.

Hearing Keqing's praise, Amber felt a little embarrassed.

"Not really~!"

"Mondstadt just needed an Outrider, so that's how I got my position."

Takumi listened to the two of them praising each other and sighed.

"Alright, enough of that."

"Take them to their rooms."

"You'll be staying here for now."

"Feel free to leave whenever you want."

Hearing this, the three nodded and settled into their rooms at Takumi's place.

To be honest, their visit to Liyue had been eye-opening.

After freshening up, Amber took out her phone and called Grand Master Jean.

She shared everything she had seen and learned that day.

Hearing Amber's report, Jean sighed to herself.

Liyue's development was incredibly fast.

They had built so much in such a short time.
