Chapter 283

Returning to the original place, the location itself often produces things that Teyvat does not have.

From the very beginning, Ganyu had already informed them about it.

The staff members had to be prepared at all times.

They needed to be ready to learn continuously.

Whenever something new appeared, they had to adapt quickly.

Just like when the car and mobile phone first appeared, they had to adjust.

Now, with the arrival of computers, they had to continue adapting.

Because of this, no one complained.

After all, they were mentally prepared from the start, weren't they?

When the computers were turned on, as Takumi had explained earlier, they began trying to control the mouse.

Then, they clicked on the software called Typing Practice.

Some clicked the left button, some the right, but it wasn't a big problem.

Regardless, they managed to open the program.

If one click wasn't enough, they tried twice.

Once the software opened, it guided them on how to input text.

Whatever key was pressed on the keyboard, the corresponding word appeared on the screen.

Seeing this, their eyes lit up.

They eagerly began trying it out.

One by one, they used two fingers to tap at the keyboard.

Speed?

Very, very slow!

By the time work hours ended, Takumi stepped out of his office.

He saw that many employees had ordered takeout and were still practicing typing in the office.

Takumi felt immense satisfaction.

These people were eager to learn.

"Well then, I'll give them a proper lesson in the afternoon."

Once they mastered typing, they could start teaching other departments.

For now, the computers were only available in the General Affairs Department.

Nowhere else.

With that thought, Takumi left to eat.

After returning from his meal, Takumi began giving a lesson.

He taught them how to use office software.

The main focus was teaching them how to input text into the computer.

He also showed them how to scan documents into the system and print them out.

Additionally, he introduced calculation software.

The employees handling accounting saw that simply inputting numbers and making basic adjustments could yield results instantly.

Their eyes widened with excitement.

It was so convenient.

Thus, they became the most dedicated learners.

As Takumi continued teaching, Ningguang, Ganyu, and Keqing entered the room.

Seeing Takumi explaining, they became interested.

So, they did not interrupt but instead found seats to observe.

Takumi noticed their arrival but didn't mind and continued his lesson.

When the session was nearly over, Takumi stopped.

"Alright, that's all for today."

"You can try practicing on your own."

"When there's time, I'll continue teaching."

"Of course, you're welcome to explore and learn independently."

Hearing this, the employees nodded eagerly.

As they were about to leave, they noticed Ningguang and the others.

Seeing Ningguang, they were startled.

"Lady Ningguang, Lady Ganyu, Lady Keqing."

Ningguang looked at them with a gentle smile.

"Hello."

"Study well."

"These tools are very useful."

"In the future, we may all rely on computers for office work."

Encouraged by Ningguang's words, they nodded enthusiastically.

"Yes!" they responded in unison.

After greeting Ningguang, they quickly left to resume their work.

Takumi turned to Ningguang and the others.

"Why are you here?" he asked.

Ningguang rolled her eyes.

"We came to play mahjong with you."

"The Emperor has been completely addicted recently!"

She sighed as she complained.

Ever since Zhongli and Hu Tao learned how to play mahjong, they had constantly been looking for opponents.

Their first stop was the Teahouse, where they played against Childe.

Since mahjong games there often became heated, many people quickly learned about the game.

That day, Childe lost several million Mora.

Even an unfortunate passerby who got pulled into the game lost a considerable amount.

The experience scared him so much that he refused to play with Hu Tao and Zhongli again.

Childe, now hooked on the game, went straight to the Northland Bank manager for more money.

From then on, the two had been continuously sending funds to Hu Tao and Zhongli.

When Ningguang heard about this, she was speechless.

"Are those two planning to bankrupt the Northland Bank?"

No one knew how things would turn out.

But rumors said they played mahjong all night.

When they left, Hu Tao was bouncing with excitement, and Zhongli looked pleased.

In fact, Zhongli even spotted a vase he liked and bought it on the spot—with a check.

This indicated that the Emperor had won quite a bit.

Hearing Ningguang's words, Takumi rolled his eyes at her.

"Don't joke around."

"You're not here just for that."

"Let's go."

"Come to my office."

Play mahjong?

Should they switch to Fight the Landlord tonight?

With Shen He, Ningguang, and himself, they could manage.

If necessary, Ganyu and Keqing could join in.

Ningguang smirked slightly.

She had just been teasing.

Mahjong was a fun but time-consuming game.

She didn't have much free time.

If she did, she'd rather play the Liyue Millennium game she had created.

The group headed to Takumi's office.

Keqing, walking at the back, shut the door.

No outsiders needed to hear their conversation.

Takumi poured tea for everyone.

After taking a few sips, Ningguang spoke up.

"When do you plan to popularize computers?"

"You've been creating a lot of new things lately."

Takumi nodded.

"That's true."

"But if we want to popularize computers, we'll need to wait."

"Right now, both computers and the network are still in their infancy."

"Many things still need improvement."

"So, there's no need to rush the process."

"Besides, at the moment, only office workers really need computers."

"I doubt many people would buy a computer for personal use."

Without entertainment features like games or TV, there wasn't much appeal.

For now, it was only useful for work.

Or, at best, online chatting.

But in that case, wouldn't using a phone be more convenient?

So, this wasn't the best time yet.

Once computers improved, perhaps every household in Liyue would own one.

Ningguang nodded.

Since Takumi had a plan, she wouldn't interfere.

She then shifted to the main reason for her visit.

Her expression turned serious.
