The noisy sound in the teahouse continued, and the people who were isolated outside the door by Qianyan Army were also excitedly waiting for the progress of the matter.
It's just that the waiting time is a bit long.
"It's been almost half an hour, why hasn't there been any movement?"
"Oh, now I only see those gentlemen going in. I don't know what they are going to do this time?"
"Hey, that one over there...that one is..."
"Where? Who?"
"I saw it, I saw it, he's so handsome...huh?...Why is he a cripple."
"What are you talking about? Watch your mouth, this is one of the Seven Stars, Master Tianshu Star!"
"Hiss...who is the head of your family? Ouyang?"
"Yes, that's him!"
It was almost seven o'clock when the people discovered that the situation had changed.
Ouyang appeared.
Your family's reputation in Liyue Port is still good, whether it's because the school adopted those orphans or because your family always treats the craftsmen well on the construction site.
All these have brought your family quite a reputation.
But the name "Ouyang" is still a familiar name to many people.
If it were five years ago, when rumors about Hua Shilong stirred up the entire Liyue Port, there would have been many people who could recognize him.
But now that five years have passed, the people's specific impression of Ouyang has long been forgotten.
After all, a lot of things can be washed away in five years.
"Then why is Mr. Ouyang disabled now?"
"I do not know?"
Some gossip came into his ears, and Ouyang closed his eyes silently, speechless.
Just pretend you didn't hear it.
His body is almost fully recovered now, and he can exert force, stand, and walk around.
But it doesn't last long...
Originally, if Shen He had not shown up, he had planned to take time out to exercise every day, but unfortunately all plans could not keep up with the change. Because of some lies he had told before, and now in order not to expose the lies, he could only let this situation continue.
If I had known that I was so busy now, I shouldn't have been so evasive at the beginning, making it so embarrassing that I can't get up or down now.
I complained silently in my heart.
When he woke up, the old man came to the door. Later, whether it was Ke Qing or Gan Yu, when he saw Ouyang, he pushed them whenever he could, and the reason was that he was disabled and needed to cultivate.
Unexpectedly, after he temporarily softened his heart and agreed to Gan Yu's request, more and more things happened later, and the cultivation he had promised at the beginning was gradually no longer mentioned.
Why do plans always fail to keep up with changes...Huh?
Suddenly, Ouyang felt a chill down his spine and a cold sweat broke out on his back.
Do you always have plans that can’t keep up with changes?
What I said in the end came to mind again.
"I call you the destined one because you are an outsider and you are the most special variable.
Haven't you noticed? All the plots and plots against you, or the things you decide to do, will always be very easy to cause various accidents.
All this shows that you are the only one who can break Teyvat’s destiny!”
Damn it!
I’ve even lost my ability, so I can’t get over this hurdle as a time traveler, right?
wrong,
No, no, no!
Logically speaking, I have already lit up the destiny socket. Although it has been "sealed" due to my ability, and I can't check it now, it at least means that I have bound my destiny to Teyvat.
This is true!
From beginning to end, Ouyang only dispersed his abilities instead of sealing the space of the life seat. Ouyang didn't understand that thing, let alone seal it.
Reminiscent of what I said in the end, the maintainer of heavenly principles can find him only because his ability and personality have improved so that he can find him accurately.
And logically speaking,
Since fate is tied to Teyvat, the keeper of heavenly principles should be able to find him through the thread of fate.
But over the years, this doesn't seem to happen.
Therefore, now this kind of accident "all kinds of events will suddenly happen every time and break the original plan",
Is this a way to protect yourself?
very messy...
So annoying...
When Ouyang closed his eyes and thought, in the teahouse,
As Gan Yu and Ouyang entered the hall, all the businessmen silently shut their mouths.
There are many people who want to get close to each other first. In business, it is always right to be polite.
But looking at Ouyang with his eyes closed, those people also stopped walking.
It doesn't seem like anything good is going to happen today, does it?
in silence,
The familiar businessmen exchanged glances silently, and pessimism began to spread.
Maocai looked left and right silently, raised and lowered the corners of his mouth, and habitually picked up the teacup to drink tea, but found that it was empty, so he put the teacup down again unluckily.
After such a fuss, the uncontrollable emotion in his heart was over.
Soon, Ouyang came to the main seat.
Although he didn't show his annoyance on his face, he didn't want to get in touch with these people.
He raised his head and looked around. With everyone watching silently, he said, "My name is Ouyang. I am now one of the seven stars in Liyue, Tianshu. Is everyone here?"
The second half of the sentence was asked to Xiang Gan Yu. After seeing her nod, Ouyang stretched out his hand to stop everyone from standing up to salute, and continued to speak.
"This is basically the first time that the host and I have met each other, and we are not familiar with each other, so we can skip the formalities.
I'll just say it straight."
"Master Ouyang, please tell us directly. There is no need to be polite to us."
"Yes, yes, we are all ears."
As soon as he finished saying this, many businessmen started to flatter him.
Ouyang didn't care about this. He leaned forward slightly, stretched out his left hand with a gentle expression and raised an index finger, and said.
"I'm here this time to set a rule for all businessmen involved in the ore industry!"
After saying that, he looked around and saw many people looking at him eagerly without speaking. Ouyang nodded with satisfaction and continued.
"Everyone must already know about the Strata Abyss, so because Liyue has lost such a mine and there are fewer mining workers, the price of ore in Liyue will definitely rise in the future.
The rules I am here to set for you today are to set up a chamber of commerce under the Huishan Hall. From now on, we will work together to stabilize the ore price in Liyue Port.
This chamber of commerce is a loose organization and does not interfere with your business. It only serves to stabilize prices, similar to an alliance."
"Excuse me, Lord Ouyang, the price of this ore..."
Ouyang looked up at the person who asked the question. He understood what the other person wanted to ask. He smiled calmly and explained.
"The price is naturally determined by the people from the General Affairs Department and Huishan Department. The pricing power will not be returned to you yet, but what can be guaranteed is that it will be a price that allows you to make a profit.
This chamber of commerce will not last long, but the specific time cannot be determined yet, but I think it will not exceed two years.
And as you have seen from the previous situation, when the stratum rock giant abyss first happened, prices skyrocketed due to panic. We at Seven Stars did this to stabilize the market. Please believe that this kind of control will not last long.
Everything is for the people of Liyue,
I hope you can understand."
For the people?
After saying so much, don’t you want us to give in to you?
Many businessmen had already noticed that something was wrong, but looking at Ouyang's peaceful expression, they felt uncomfortable in their hearts and did not dare to speak for a while.
And here Ouyang looked at the people who were silent again. He felt that he couldn't suppress the irritability in his heart. Just when he wanted to cut off the trouble quickly,
There was a cold snort from the crowd.
"Hmph! Mr. Ouyang must be too lenient. Prince Yan has not cared about how the people of Liyue do business for so many years. It is simply ridiculous for you to do so!
