Chapter 332

The car Takumi made was not available for sale on the market.

Now, owning such a vehicle had become a status symbol.

Anyone without a Vision could not operate one at all.

Because of this, if someone saw a motorcycle soaring through the sky, there was no need to question it—the rider was definitely someone with a Vision.

When Eula expressed her desire for a motorcycle, Takumi didn't refuse.

Since she had a Vision, she was fully capable of driving it.

"One million Mora for the vehicle, thank you."

After saying this, Takumi extended his hand.

Hearing the price, Eula didn't hesitate.

She took out a check and handed it to Takumi.

"Here!"

"This is your payment."

Her eyes then turned to the motorcycle.

At that moment, they lit up with excitement.

It was stunning.

It even had the Lawrence family crest engraved on it.

Takumi really was thoughtful.

Spending a million Mora on this felt completely worth it.

At that moment, Ayaka Kamisato also spoke up after some thought.

"Takumi, can I purchase a few of these for my brother?"

"We can have them shipped back."

Hearing her request, Takumi was momentarily surprised but nodded nonetheless.

"Of course."

"If you need them, I'll prepare some for you."

"By the way, if someone were to travel from Inazuma by motorcycle, it would be quite fast."

"These motorcycles can even traverse the sea without issue."

If driven at full speed, reaching Inazuma would be a matter of just a day or two.

While speaking, Takumi brought out the motorcycles Ayaka requested.

He prepared five in total.

"All done."

"These five should be enough."

"If you need more, just let me know."

Ayaka Kamisato nodded in appreciation.

"Great!"

"I'll take them to the docks tomorrow and have them shipped back to Inazuma."

She was clearly delighted.

If roads were ever built in Inazuma, they could bring even more vehicles there.

Unfortunately, the current infrastructure made that impossible.

Even in Inazuma City, most roads consisted of stairs rather than streets.

Because of this, flying motorcycles were a much better fit for the region.

They weren't limited by terrain, which made them invaluable.

With such vehicles, traveling across Inazuma would be far more convenient.

After seeing the motorcycles, Ayaka immediately transferred the payment to Takumi.

With the vehicles secured, the next step was shipping them to Inazuma.

A convoy of ships was set to depart the following day.

She would simply have them transported along with the regular shipments.

Now, there was a steady stream of ships traveling between Inazuma and Liyue.

Food supplies were constantly being transported back.

Inazuma had fully recovered.

From her brother, Ayaka had also received plenty of good news.

It reassured her.

However, one issue troubled her—many people from Inazuma were leaving to find work elsewhere.

There simply weren't enough job opportunities at home.

As a result, most citizens left in search of work.

Many of them had ended up in Liyue for employment.

Ayaka had recently visited the docks frequently and had seen ships arriving from Inazuma.

Each time, they brought in new workers from Inazuma.

Upon inquiring, she learned that these individuals had come to Liyue specifically for job opportunities.

It seemed that Inazuma needed more industries to provide employment.

She needed to discuss this matter with Takumi.

If this continued, Inazuma's population would dwindle significantly.

That would be devastating for a nation that already had a relatively small population.

The best course of action was to create jobs directly within Inazuma.

The question was, what kind of factories should they establish?

This would require careful discussion.

The best approach would be large-scale infrastructure projects.

Demolishing outdated structures and rebuilding modern facilities.

Setting up steel mills and cement factories would provide countless jobs.

She needed to have a proper discussion with Takumi about this.

That evening, Ayaka discussed the issue with Yae Miko.

She shared everything she had observed.

Lately, too many people had been leaving Inazuma.

If this trend continued, it could result in a massive population decline.

This would be a disaster for Inazuma, given its already small population.

Hearing Ayaka's concerns, Yae Miko thought for a moment before replying.

"I'll speak with Takumi about this tomorrow."

She agreed that Inazuma's situation needed urgent attention.

With all the economic opportunities available in Liyue, it was no wonder so many people wanted to leave.

If this continued, Inazuma would be left empty.

It was not a good sign when citizens were eager to leave their own nation.

Ayaka nodded.

With that decided, she went to rest.

The next morning, Ayaka and Yae Miko woke up early, had breakfast, and then headed to the General Affairs Department to meet Takumi.

At the time, Takumi was busy overseeing the paperwork for Eula's villa purchase.

Seeing Ayaka and Yae Miko arrive, he was confused.

"Are you two here to buy a villa as well?"

"Or is there something else?"

Otherwise, why would the two of them come to the General Affairs Department?

Were they also planning to purchase a villa?

Yae Miko scoffed upon hearing this.

"I don't need to buy a house."

"In Liyue, I can just stay at Ganyu's manor."

Did she really need to buy property here?

Absolutely not.

If she needed a place to stay, she could just live in Ganyu's estate.

Hearing this, Takumi rolled his eyes.

"Then why are you two here together?"

"It's unusual."

Normally, these two wouldn't seek him out together.

Most of the time, Yae Miko was preoccupied with her phone or managing her bookstore.

She rarely had the time to visit Takumi in person.

As for Ayaka?

She was often busy at the docks, ensuring that shipments of grain were loaded properly onto ships.

She usually had no time to visit Takumi either.

Yet here they were, together.

Something was definitely up.

"Come inside so we can talk."

"There's something we'd like your opinion on."

Yae Miko cast a glance at Takumi before walking ahead into his office.

Hearing this, Takumi was puzzled but didn't dwell on it.

After ensuring Eula's paperwork was being handled, he followed them inside.

Once inside the office, the three of them sat down.

Takumi poured tea for Ayaka and Yae Miko.

Then, he asked them why they had come to see him.
