"Brother, you are such a bad steward. I said I would send you a boat, but he actually said no! This is simply outrageous. Get rid of him now."
Glancing at Gui'an who was standing aside with a flattering smile on his face, Ouyang turned to look at Beidou and asked.
"Where did you get the boat?"
"Let me tell you."
Xue Lian took over the conversation, looked at Ouyang's eyes and smiled.
"Not long after we went to sea, we encountered pirates who came to rob us. The eldest sister led her men and robbed them. We now have two new ships."
What kind of divine expansion is this? Does the NPC send the protagonist to the ship when he goes to sea?
Ouyang looked at Beidou in wonder when he heard this, and said curiously: "Isn't that just right, so you can build a fleet? Why did you give me the ship?"
"You said it, you got 70% of the first three trades, and I was able to go out to sea and grab these two ships because you invested in sea ships. Do you think this is true?"
Ouyang ignored it, took a good look at Beidou, and teased: "Tell me, do you have any ideas?"
"Hahahahaha..."
Before Beidou said anything, Xue Lian on the side burst out laughing, and Gui'an who had been standing on the side also covered his mouth and laughed secretly.
Seeing the head of the family looking at him, Gui'an quickly explained: "Master, you are really good at judging people! Captain Beidou wants to install a few bed crossbows on the ship. Isn't there no way..."
That’s what happened.
Ouyang is psychologically confident. If Liyue's merchant ships want to install offensive weapons, they need to report to the General Affairs Department, and the process is very troublesome. It is basically impossible for Beidou to get approval for someone like Beidou who has always wanted to do side business.
"I have some at home, you can use it first. As for the boat, I will get one, but as we have agreed, I will only have two boats in the future. If there are more, it will be difficult for us brothers."
In the future, Beidou will form the Southern Cross Fleet, which will be the strongest maritime force in Liyue at that time. Ouyang does not want to get involved too much, because she knows that by then, protecting the safety of Liyue will be a tacit agreement between her and Ningguang
.
Business will no longer be her main business, and Beidou is also a very adventurous person, so she doesn't take trade seriously.
Therefore, it is imperative to set up your own fleet, so I asked Gui'an to make a trip to get familiar with the route and process.
Whether this is possible or not is another matter, but Beidou’s fleet will take care of the whole story.
In terms of keeping the family running, the current molas are enough. What we are doing now is just to make the family richer.
Previously in the Guanhai Pavilion space, he had copied down almost everything that could eventually be passed on, preparing it as the final secret technique of your family.
Ouyang also thought about writing something to Ningguang and Keqing, so as to give the family some help and be prepared for any trouble.
It's a pity that it's too late to make friends with the immortals, and it's very likely that Uncle Zhongli won't allow it. The uncle should have his own ideas about their arrangements.
Everything he does is done in a hurry, and Ouyang understands this very well.
But he doesn't have much time. He plans to face the law of heaven after completing the contract with Zhongli. It's hard to predict what the final outcome will be then.
Fortunately, the uncle said that the family crisis has passed.
Ouyang is in a hurry to do this now because he wants to make sure for his family in advance, just in case.
After chatting with Beidou for a while and sending the drunken woman away from the house, Ouyang stopped Xue Lian.
"Xue Lian, the child is not at home, I will take you to see him."
Seeing Xue Lian's surprised look, Ouyang gestured to follow him, talking as he walked.
"I'll take you to meet the child and meet an immortal by the way. Just don't make a fuss."
"Immortals? We have them in Liyue Port?"
There is no shortage of legends about immortals in Liyue, but there are almost none that have actually been seen, so Xue Lian was very surprised when she heard this.
"I'm so awesome, you can even meet an immortal."
"It's nothing. You may know her, Grandma Ping from Yujingtai. Just don't be rude later."
"Ah? She turns out to be an immortal?"
She had met Grandma Ping several times. When Guijin was still here, he brought her to see her and ask for a cup of tea.
I remember that Gui Jin said at the time that Grandma Ping knew flowers very well, and the Guifu Garden was built based on her advice.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be an immortal, and Xue Lian's curiosity deepened.
When the two came to the entrance of Yujing Terrace, there was no sign of Grandma Ping. Fortunately, the teapot was on the table.
Under Xue Lian's strange eyes, Ouyang walked to the table and said hello politely.
"Grandma Ping, I'll bring Xue Lian to see her child."
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll bring you in."
Xue Lian, who was surprised that the teapot could actually speak, felt dizzy and dizzy. When she came back to her senses, the world had changed.
"This...is this the Immortal Mansion?"
The scenery in front of her shocked Xue Lian. Although she was standing on a small platform, the surrounding space was very large.
Below the platform is a cloud-like white air flow, surrounded by mountains in the distance, and a few cranes can be seen wandering in the mountains in the distance.
Fortunately, her good upbringing did not make her rude, and she gave a blessing to Grandma Ping who was smiling in front of her.
"Are you an immortal? My name is Xue Lian, Gui Chuanyu's mother."
"Okay, okay, we have met a few times, just call me Grandma Ping. You want to see the child, right? Come with me."
With that said, Grandma Ping nodded to Ouyang, turned around and came to the edge of the platform, and with a wave of her hand, a path made of magic was formed.
The three of them followed the road to the highest platform. Ouyang saw another person here, practicing martial arts with a horse stance.
Xiangling?
With his dark blue hair and iconic attire, Ouyang instantly guessed who the other person was.
He looked around curiously and saw Guo Ba sleeping soundly under the table.
That means Xiangling didn't run away.
"Xiang Ling, you are good at cooking. Let's make some dishes."
With that said, Grandma Ping turned to Ouyang and said: "Sit over here, I will send the child right away."
Xiangling, who was dripping with sweat, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Okay, master, I'll be right away! Guo Ba, let's go, let's light the fire."
A crane flew from the sky, carrying Gui Chuanyu who was sleeping soundly.
"This child is very well-behaved and not afraid of anything. Look how peacefully he sleeps."
"Thank you, Grandma Ping, for taking care of me."
Xue Lian carefully picked up the child and thanked her again.
The three of them sat down, Xue Lian was chatting with Grandma Ping, but Ouyang looked at Guo Ba as he left thoughtfully.
He thought he might have found a solution.
In the plot of the game Zhuyue Festival, Guoba is Mark Hughes, the Kitchen God, and one of the demon gods who once guarded Liyue.
In order to quell the natural disasters caused by the demon war, he integrated his divine power into the earth. Although his intelligence was greatly reduced in the end, he was later awakened by Xiang Ling and began to accompany Xiang Ling.
Then, if you pick the fruit of power, you can repair your body and even your soul.
Then he immediately dissipates his power and returns to his current state. Does that mean he no longer needs to be watched by heaven?
Anyway, Ouyang can't risk his life to grab the management rights. He just needs to borrow some power. It should be fine... right?
