Chapter 253

The alchemy of Snezhnaya is naturally remarkable.

In addition, to prevent those from the Northland Bank from disrupting Liyue's financial system, Ningguang had taken precautions.

She even provided them with some resources, allowing them to conduct their own research.

Although Snezhnaya could create something similar, they could not completely replicate it or break it.

However, after understanding the principles, they managed to develop a similar system.

Though not as convenient as Liyue's, it still served some purpose.

It was sufficient for their current needs.

Not all customers would immediately switch to Liyue Bank.

However, neither Ningguang nor Takumi were too concerned about this.

Liyue Bank had firmly established itself.

It had even expanded to Mondstadt and was gradually extending its reach further.

Owning the rights to issue Mora, Liyue Bank held a dominant position over Northland Bank.

Now, whoever controlled the distribution of the new Mora held the most influence.

All new Mora could only be exchanged at Liyue Bank.

As for Snezhnaya, if they wanted the new Mora, they had to acquire it from Liyue Bank.

This move directly struck at their financial stronghold.

Even if Liyue refused to supply them with the new Mora, they could do nothing about it.

The new Type Mora had gradually been accepted.

Many alchemists even discovered unexpected benefits in using the new Mora for alchemy.

This delighted many, leading to even greater acceptance of Liyue's banking system.

Thus, Liyue Bank continued to thrive.

Meanwhile, Takumi accompanied Kamisato Ayaka to get a mobile phone, a phone card, and a bank account.

He also explained how to use the phone.

She purchased several, likely intending to send them back to Inazuma for her brother or Yae Miko.

Takumi informed her about the signal transmitter.

Ayaka had no objections to installing it in Inazuma and even strongly supported the idea.

When Beidou next traveled to Inazuma, she would take the transmitters with her.

Ayaka planned to have her retainers install them in various locations across Inazuma.

Additionally, she purchased several radios and similar devices.

Once the signal transmitters were in place, these devices could receive broadcasts in Inazuma.

This would make communication easier and allow people to stay updated on Liyue's advancements.

Liyue's radio stations broadcast daily updates on events happening in the city.

The broadcasts were highly engaging.

After shopping around, Kamisato Ayaka bought many items.

Had it been appropriate, she would have eagerly purchased clothes as well.

Once her shopping was done, Takumi escorted her to the General Affairs Department.

The items she purchased were arranged for delivery.

They would be sent directly to Beidou's ship.

Beidou had not yet woken up, likely having drunk too much the previous night.

Takumi had already informed Beidou's crew about the items.

They would ensure the deliveries reached Inazuma safely.

Once Beidou woke up, he would discuss the details with her.

As Takumi prepared tea for Kamisato Ayaka, Ningguang and Ganyu arrived.

Seeing the two enter, Ayaka was a little surprised.

Judging by their demeanor, she could tell they were high-ranking officials in Liyue.

As soon as Ningguang and Ganyu entered, they noticed the refined young lady before them.

"You must be the guest from Inazuma."

"I'm Ningguang."

"Welcome to Liyue."

Ganyu, standing beside her, introduced herself as well.

"I'm Ganyu."

Hearing their greetings, Kamisato Ayaka was momentarily taken aback.

She quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings to both of you."

"I'm Kamisato Ayaka."

"It's an honor to meet you."

Ningguang and Ganyu nodded in acknowledgment.

Takumi then invited them to sit down.

"You've arrived just in time."

"Have some tea with us."

"Miss Ayaka, don't you have something for Ganyu?"

Takumi reminded her as he poured tea.

Hearing this, Kamisato Ayaka nodded.

"Yes."

"Miss Ganyu, this is a letter from Lady Guuji for you."

"And the gift she asked me to deliver."

Saying that, Ayaka retrieved a letter and a small box from her Vision.

Seeing the items, Ganyu smiled and said:

"Thank you, Miss Kamisato."

She accepted the items, set the box aside, and opened the letter.

After reading its contents, she nodded.

"Lady Guuji has mentioned everything in the letter."

"If you need any assistance while in Liyue, you may come to me anytime."

"I usually work at Yuehai Pavilion."

"Of course, if it's more convenient, you can always ask Takumi for help."

Saying this, she turned to Takumi.

"Takumi."

"Please take care of Miss Kamisato."

"She's here to study and learn."

"You understand the situation in Inazuma well."

"Lady Guuji is deeply concerned about her people."

"She sent Ayaka here to gain insight into the world beyond Inazuma."

Hearing Ganyu's request, Takumi nodded.

"No problem."

"Ayaka is staying at my manor."

"She'll be well taken care of."

It was a simple matter.

Ayaka also hurriedly expressed her gratitude.

"Thank you."

Everyone smiled, not making a big deal of it.

"You are our guest in Liyue."

"There's no need for formalities."

At this moment, Ningguang spoke up.

She had some matters to discuss with Ayaka.

Inazuma was still in lockdown.

However, with Kamisato Ayaka visiting Liyue, they could explore potential agreements.

For instance, securing a long-term trade contract.

Liyue required significant resources.

A stable contract could benefit both sides.

Ningguang and Kamisato Ayaka proceeded to discuss various topics.

Ayaka had the authority to make business decisions.

Although her elder brother managed government affairs as the head of the Kamisato Clan, she oversaw all internal and external family matters, including business.

At times, her authority even surpassed her brother's in trade-related issues.

As a result, the discussions proceeded smoothly.

Ayaka successfully established a connection between Liyue and Inazuma for future trade agreements.
