The next day, the first ray of light in the morning entered the city of Mondstadt. The bartender Charles was able to clean up the mess left by a group of people's carnival last night, opened the door of the angel's gift, and took a breath of the early morning air of Mondstadt.
Finally, return to the tavern, lean on the chair inside the bar, and start taking a nap.
On the other side, Ying and Paimon, who woke up very early, started walking along the hotel where they lived, searching for possible inns or chambers of commerce in Mondstadt, hoping to rent a carriage to Liyue.
After all, Liyue is thousands of miles away from Mondstadt, so it is obviously unrealistic to just walk there.
"If you want to look for the Rock God, you only have this chance once a year. Thanks to Wendy's reminder before, otherwise we would definitely miss this year's 'Seven Stars Invitation Ceremony'."
Paimon floated in the air, leaned forward, and said sideways to Ying, who was looking around.
Ying stood in front of an inn next to the market. The decoration of this store was different from Mondstadt's overall reddish and darker style. The front hall had tall columns and light golden cornices, as well as plaques and couplets at the door.
, revealing a solemn and steady momentum, and even the store name has a unique charm: "Feiyun Inn."
"Are we...really going in?"
Paimon poked his head into the store and seemed to be shocked by the antique decoration of the store, while Ying hesitated for a while and walked towards the store.
"Boss, we want to rent a carriage!"
When I came to the counter, I looked at the dozing boss. He looked ordinary, but he didn't seem to be very old. He was wearing a dark robe and seemed to have no business. He was resting on the counter.
Ying knocked on the table, and the boss who was still sleeping woke up immediately. He first looked around blankly, and then saw the blond girl standing in front of the counter and the little girl floating in the air. He immediately said to the two of them: "
Miss, welcome to Feiyun Inn, is there anything you need?"
Ying nodded and continued: "She and I... and a boy want to rent a car to go to Liyue. How much does it cost?"
While talking, Ying suddenly remembered that Famas had said last night that he would go to Liyue with her. She stopped talking and added him to the list.
As he spoke, the young boss recognized Ying. After all, during this period of time, Ying could be said to be the busiest adventurer in Mondstadt City. As an honorary knight of Mondstadt City, being able to have a good relationship with her would be very important to her subordinate Fei.
For the post station of the Cloud Chamber of Commerce, it is absolutely beneficial without any harm.
He has been sent to Mondstadt by his master for a long time, and Master Xingqiu is not doing anything. If he can't do anything anymore, he will not be able to return to Liyue and retire in peace.
Thinking of this, the young boss's eyes and tone softened, as if he saw the sponsor: "Then you have found the right person! In the entire Mondstadt, except for Mr. Diluc's tavern and Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, no one can always
Mobilize vehicles to Liyue."
"Leaving aside the safety and supplies along the way, several adults from Liyue Seven Stars are currently busy preparing for the Immortal Invitation Ceremony. They have recruited all the cars in Liyue to transport supplies and pick up distinguished guests from Yujingtai.
There are very few drivers with Liyue and Mondstadt passes..."
Taking advantage of Ying's dazed moment, the boss dressed in Liyue began to brag about the strength of his company and the inn. Paimeng on the side listened to the boss's verbose words, and his ears were about to get calluses.
"Let's talk about business, shall we?"
Seeing that the boss was still introducing the power of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce endlessly, Paimon finally couldn't help it and interrupted.
"Oh, yes, so there are three of us, right? Do you want the express train or the slow train? You should also plan to go to pay homage to the King of Rocks when his old man comes, right? Then I suggest you choose the express train. After arriving in Liyue as soon as possible, you can still rest.
A day or two, so you won’t be in a hurry..."
What follows is a long introduction, about the choice of the size of the carriage, the scenery along the way, the stops passed, and various delicacies in Liyue...
In terms of talking skills, this boss is the most powerful person I have ever seen in Mondstadt. Even Sarah from the Deer Hunter Restaurant can't match it. However, the boss has not spoken out about the issue they are most concerned about.
"Then... how much does such a carriage and service cost?"
Ying squeezed the light purse in her hand. Although she had completed many commissions in the Adventurers Association, in order to feed Paimon, who was eating a lot, and to repair her own equipment and weapons, Ying's purse now also contained
Only tens of thousands of molas.
"Not expensive, not expensive..."
Seeing the troubled look on Ying's face, the owner of the inn hurriedly waved his hand.
"Generally speaking, renting a carriage to Liyue costs at least 800,000 molara, and it is also during the most famous immortal ceremony in Liyue..."
The boss made a troubled expression.
"But considering that you are an honorary knight of Mondstadt, and that you believe in and choose Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, I will only charge you 600,000."
Putting on a magnanimous look, the boss waved his hand, as if he had made a decision that went against his ancestors, and with a look of pain in his eyes, he seemed to have suffered a big loss.
Paimon couldn't help but believe in his superb acting skills, but the moment he heard about 600,000 Mora on the screen, his heart went cold.
She doesn’t have so many molas!
She glanced at Paimeng beside her. Although she could work hard to earn molas by accepting commissions, or she could reduce Paimon's daily food intake and save more molas, but... Liyue still had at most half of the Immortal Invitation Ceremony left.
The month is about to begin!
"No...I'm sorry, we don't have so many molas...Can...it be cheaper?"
Ying pursed her lips and stammered, her eyes involuntarily drifting in other directions, not daring to look at her boss.
The boss of Feiyun Station could tell at a glance that Ying was not a person who often bargained for prices. He was secretly happy, but had a troubled expression on his face.
"It really can't get any cheaper. You also know that during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony, all the carriages were collected. I will send you to Liyue now. That is a business that will never come back. Lord Ningguang has already
An order has been issued that all private business association vehicles arriving in Liyue will be recruited for official use and will not be allowed to leave Liyue without permission."
"Although there is generous compensation."
Of course, the boss will not say the last sentence, and he will continue to fool the blond girl in front of him and this little mascot.
"Then, can you help us prepare the carriage first? As for the commission... I will think of a solution later!"
Ying bit her lip and wrung her fingers in confusion. Seeing that the boss was so desperate, she really couldn't afford so much of Maura's food. She could only stabilize the boss first and then think of a solution after leaving the store.
Maybe we should go to Famas first and ask. As a demon, he didn’t even save some treasure before being sealed, right?
Ying, who was thinking hard, remembered that Famas's daily purchases and meals seemed to be recorded in the accounts of the Knights of the West Wind, and when he went to the pub to drink, Mr. Diluc provided them for free.
If there is nothing Famas can do...
It's all Paimon's fault. I ate so much food from Lord Diluc last night, and now I'm embarrassed to go to Mondstadt's richest Lord Diluc to borrow money!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, so Ying grabbed Paimon's calf and pulled her towards the direction of the Knights of the West Wind.
"Welcome next time, honorary knight, I will prepare the carriage and wait for you!"
Looking at the angry Ying and the confused Paimon, the boss said with a smile.
