Chapter 295

When Ayaka Kamisato heard Takumi's suggestion, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Then let me contact Mondstadt."

"If there is a lot of grain over there, things will be easy."

"Ship it directly from Mondstadt and then transport it back to Inazuma."

Ayaka quickly made a decision to buy the grain from Mondstadt.

Hearing her say this, Takumi couldn't help but remind her:

"Besides finding Acting Grand Master Jean, you can also go to Dawn Winery to find Diluc."

"After all, for winemaking, there must be a large supply of grain."

"You can ask him."

Takumi provided another suggestion, directing her to Diluc.

Ayaka nodded.

"Alright!"

"I'll go find Mr. Diluc right away."

"If that doesn't work, I'll look for Miss Jean."

"I'll leave now; my brother has assigned me many tasks to handle."

After saying that, Ayaka bid farewell to Takumi and the others before leaving to get started.

She needed to buy necessary supplies first, contact merchants, and arrange for the shipment of various goods. At that time, payments would be handled on Inazuma's side.

Her current priority was to work with her brother to restore order to Inazuma before moving on to other matters.

Watching Ayaka leave, Takumi couldn't help but murmur to himself.

At this time, Yae Miko also spoke up:

"Takumi~!"

"Aren't you planning to send a lot of goods from your side to Inazuma?"

Yae Miko looked at Takumi with a sly smile.

She was very interested in many of the products available in Guili Assembly, whether it was alchemy equipment or other technological advancements.

Hearing her words, Takumi glanced at her sideways.

"With Inazuma's current situation, what's the use of sending anything there?"

"There's no power grid."

"If I send a bunch of electrical appliances over, what's the use if there's no electricity?"

"Let's wait until your economy recovers first."

Send it over? That would be pointless.

Right now, Inazuma was struggling financially. If he sent over unnecessary goods, nobody would buy them.

Food was the priority.

After hearing this, Yae Miko realized that Takumi had a point.

It really wasn't the right time.

After thinking for a while, she said:

"Then let's put that aside for now."

"I plan to open a few Yae Publishing House branches in Liyue."

"So, I won't bother you for now."

"I'm off to find some storefronts."

After saying that, Yae Miko turned and left.

She was planning to bring Yae Publishing House to Liyue.

At the same time, she needed to consider how to help restore Inazuma's economy.

The mess that Ei left behind was massive.

Restoring Inazuma wouldn't happen overnight.

However, that didn't stop her from expanding Yae Publishing House.

There were plenty of avid readers in Liyue!

She could make good money here.

Even better, she already had an author working in Liyue.

Wasn't it Xingqiu? That was the name she had seen in the database.

It seemed like he was even in the chat group, though he didn't speak much.

Was he helping an editor run errands?

Yae Miko thought about it amusingly.

Yae Miko and Ayaka Kamisato naturally didn't require Takumi's full attention.

After breakfast, Takumi started his work.

He went directly to Albedo to continue refining some phone functions and adding new features.

For the next few days, Takumi stayed in Albedo's lab.

Instead of using his abilities, he wrote lines of code alongside Albedo and the others, experiencing the life of a programmer.

Meanwhile, Yae Miko wandered around Guili Assembly, searching for the perfect store location.

She planned to buy a store and establish a branch of Yae Publishing House in Liyue.

It didn't need to be too big—there were plenty of options.

So, she took her time looking for the ideal spot.

As for Ayaka Kamisato, her first stop was at Dawn Winery's store inside the shopping district.

But Diluc wasn't there.

She asked the clerks, but they didn't know his whereabouts.

So, she left empty-handed.

Her only option was to visit the main Dawn Winery estate on the other side of town.

It was said that the owner often stayed there.

As for Angel's Share Tavern, it only opened at night.

If nothing else, Diluc should be at the main estate.

Arriving at the building, Ayaka Kamisato introduced herself to the receptionist.

Since Takumi had implemented a structured system, Diluc followed suit.

Anyone visiting or inquiring about business matters had to go through the front desk.

After verifying Ayaka's identity, the receptionist immediately made a call to Diluc.

Upon receiving approval, she said to Ayaka:

"Miss Kamisato."

"Please follow me; I will escort you upstairs."

After saying that, the receptionist led Ayaka toward the elevator.

Ayaka looked around curiously.

The building was filled with barrels of wine and crates of beverages.

It was clear this place doubled as a warehouse.

Dawn Winery's Mondstadt headquarters primarily stored liquor and drinks.

The actual office spaces were only on the second and third floors.

The higher floors were probably reserved for beverage storage.

Diluc's office was on the top floor.

Taking the elevator to the top, the receptionist gestured:

"Please enter."

"Lord Diluc is waiting inside."

Ayaka nodded and stepped out of the elevator.

As soon as she did, she saw an office before her.

The receptionist knocked gently on the door.

After getting confirmation, she opened the door and gestured for Ayaka to enter before leaving.

Ayaka stepped inside and saw Diluc seated at his desk.

Diluc put down the document he was reading and turned his attention to her.

"Miss Kamisato, what brings you here?"

Diluc stood up and gestured for Ayaka to take a seat.

Hearing his words, Ayaka quickly responded:

"Pardon the intrusion."

"Lord Diluc, I am here to discuss a business deal with you."

After sitting down at the coffee table, Ayaka directly stated her purpose.

Hearing her words, Diluc was slightly surprised.

"Business?"

"You mean wine?"

If someone came to him for business, it had to be about alcohol, right?

Ayaka shook her head.

"No."

"I need grain."

"A large supply of it."

Diluc was even more surprised at this unexpected request.

"For Inazuma?"

"You're the first person to approach me about a grain business."

"Did Takumi send you?"

It wasn't hard to guess—Takumi must have directed Ayaka here.

Otherwise, who else would seek him out for grain instead of alcohol?
