Looking at Beidou who said nothing nonsense, Ningguang narrowed his eyes again.
She looked at Beidou and asked inquiringly: "Didn't you say before that the Southern Cross Fleet has nothing to do with your family? Why don't you avoid your involvement with your family this time?"
Does it bother you that this woman is putting on airs?
Taking out the wine bottle and taking a sip, Beidou looked at Ning Guang in disgust.
"Ouyang was not Tianshu at that time, there is no need to hide it now."
"Are you admitting that the Southern Cross Fleet is your family's asset? Or, at least, it is also a collaborator?"
"I am me and he is him. We are very good brothers. We trust each other, but we are all independent individuals."
After saying that, she felt that the matter was over and was about to get up and leave.
Ning Guang's exploration made her feel a little unhappy, and Beidou didn't want to waste time here anymore.
But while Beidou stood up, Ningguang continued to ask with great interest: "Since you think you two trust each other, why is it that I came to talk to you about this matter and not him?"
This sentence can be interpreted in several directions, but no matter what the interpretation is, under this situation and circumstances, it cannot be a good meaning.
When Beidou heard this, he left without changing his movements. He picked up the wine bottle on the table, looked at Ning Guang sitting there, and said.
"You're so pathetic, you don't even have any friends. It's because Ouyang and I trust each other that he let me talk to you alone. Humph~"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
Ningguang was left sitting there in a daze, lost in thought. Beidou's words almost made her break through.
Yes, as Tianquan...I have no friends...
Tianquan is in charge of the laws of Liyue, and she frequently ends up participating in various trades. Living in a business war, she really does not have a friend who can speak her mind.
His position of power is too high. No matter where he goes, most of the people he hears and meets are flattering people.
Ningguang's approach can only bring lies and flattery. She understands people's hearts very well and can easily see what the other person wants from their eyes.
They coveted her beauty and power.
There are also all kinds of news that can help them earn more Mora.
All they want is profit, and other than that, everything comes second.
Let me ask you, in this kind of environment, even if there is someone who is willing to have a sincere relationship, she would not dare to trust him too much.
That's not right. I once...I thought I would have it...
The wind blew the hem of Ningguang's dress and fluttered the tassel on her forehead. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked into the distance, recalling some past events.
Soon, Bai Xiao hurried over holding a stack of documents.
"Lord Ningguang...huh?"
Just as Bai Xiao was about to speak, he saw Ning Guang leaning on the table from a distance, with his hands folded on his thighs and looking in the direction of Yujing Terrace in trance.
There was no response even to the sound she made when she came closer.
Bai Xiao, who was a little confused, asked strangely: "Sir, what are you looking at?"
"...nothing."
Ning Guang came back to his senses, glanced at the tall building in the distance, and turned to face Bai Xiao.
"What do you want from me?"
"Yuehaiting sent materials, and Ou, no, Tianshuxing also sent materials. He said that there are some things that need your cooperation to modify and add some laws. He said that they were agreed with you at the meeting yesterday. .”
"Okay, it's windy here, let's go in and take a look. Let someone tidy up the place." Gu Sui
As he spoke, Ningguang stood up and took the document from Bai Xiao's arms, while reading it, he walked into Qunyu Pavilion.
In your home, in the study.
An old man in his fifties saluted Ouyang.
"I have met Mr. Ouyang. My name is Eze, and I am the steward in charge of all the properties of Chenxi Winery."
"Hello, Eze, could you please make this trip?"
"In addition to bringing some gifts this time, our Master Diluc said that we have some new cooperation with you and need to communicate with you."
"Well, that's what happened. Let's sit down for a while. Someone will talk to you about business matters later."
Hearing this, Eze bowed and saluted again.
"Thank you very much!"
Ouyang understood that the purpose of the other party's visit was the porcelain trade that he had previously discussed with Diluc. He had already asked Guiping to come to Gui'an.
Although he didn't quite understand why Diluc would send an old man to talk, and Ouyang didn't have any impression of this person, he didn't dwell on it. Anyway, the proofs the old man produced were all true.
Ouyang is quite interested in this trade line, as it will allow him to better understand other countries.
The reason why he did not choose to talk to the other party in person was because of the identity issue. After all, the other party was a butler. According to Mondstadt's aristocratic etiquette, Ouyang was willing to talk to him in person, but the other party might not be happy yet.
Another aspect is that although Ouyang has read the account books, it is Gui'an who has the full picture after all. He has always been the executor of foreign trade. It would be better for Eze to talk to him, since everything has been explained anyway.
While waiting, after exchanging a few words, Ouyang looked at the white-haired Eze and asked.
"I heard Diluc say before that he wanted to transport the goods to Liyue Port and pack them into boxes before going out to sea. Is this still the case now?"
"Yes, the trade routes in Mondstadt are not stable now. It would be a better choice to go from Chenxi Winery to Liyue Port."
Um???
Ouyang asked this because Liyue was about to start digging canals and building roads, so the trade route from Shimen to Liyue Port might not be easy to follow. He wanted to change the location to Jingfu Port in Mondstadt.
In this case, it can also save Diluc the trouble of transporting goods.
But the other party's answer made him a little confused. After searching his memory through the system, Ouyang asked with some uncertainty: "Is it because of the Wind Demon Dragon?"
"Master Ouyang is very well-informed, isn't he? Yes, the matter of the Wind Demon Dragon has not been resolved in Mondstadt. It comes and goes without a trace, making the trade routes in Mondstadt unsafe now."
Dadalia is here, but the protagonist hasn’t appeared yet?
Ouyang, who was completely unfamiliar with the timeline, had no choice but to continue.
"So that's the case, but Liyue is about to start digging canals and building roads. The official road from Shimen to Liyue Port is the first target for renovation. This may cause some trouble."
"It's okay. We have professional cargo airships. As long as the road is not blocked, there is no problem with a little trouble. It is better than risking the entire cargo being destroyed by walking on Mondstadt's business road."
After talking for a while, Gui'an stood outside the door and asked cautiously.
"Master, Guiping said, are you looking for me?"
While Gui'an saluted, he felt very uneasy and his calves were shaking.
He was all too familiar with this kind of sudden summons. It had been like this before, and he was suddenly sent overseas after he was doing well.
It's just that this time there was someone else at the scene, otherwise he would have knelt down right now.
Ouyang, who was sitting at the desk, didn't know Gui'an's little thoughts. He pointed at Eze and said to him: "This is Eze from Mondchen Dawn Winery."
Well?
Looking up in surprise, Gui'an saw Eze and said familiarly: "So it's you? Are you here to discuss the trade that our master agreed on before?"
"Yes, Mr. Gui'an."
Seeing that the two of them were familiar with each other, Ouyang was no longer polite and said directly: "You guys go to the side room to chat."
