Genshin Impact: The Recorder of All Things

Zhong Gui: "Does Ningguang have another way to make big money?"

Zhong Gui suddenly had some doubts. After all, he really didn't know how to make money like Ning Guang. Could there be something he hadn't considered?

Just then, Rick arrived.

"Advisor, I have good news and bad news."

(Note: Zhong Gui now refers to himself as an advisor, as mentioned earlier.)

Chapter 110 Liyue-themed Technology (Please Subscribe)

As a special advisor to the Seven Stars of Liyue, Zhong Gui is equivalent to Gan Yu, the Seven Stars' secretary. He is above everyone else, not subject to anyone's jurisdiction, and is only nominally below the Seven Stars.

After all, in Liyue, besides the Emperor and the immortals, the Seven Stars hold the highest status.

Rick has recently begun to rise rapidly in Liyue with a semi-official, semi-private influence. Due to the darkness of certain adults, he is qualified to handle some matters, after all, he is a tool and deputy that Zhong Gui found.

Recently, with Schwi's help, Rick took charge of the research and development of electricity.

Seeing him rush over early this morning, Zhong Gui said unhurriedly, "Let me tell you the good news first."

"The good news is that we are now able to generate electricity stably."

"And the bad news?" Zhong Gui took out a long spear and wiped it clean.

Speaking of which, most of the people in Liyue are skilled spearmen; this is probably due to the influence of the old man.

However, Zhong Gui rarely uses guns, so he doesn't need to.

“Advisor, it’s not that bad, it’s not that bad.” Rick gestured with his long spear. “It’s just that after we developed it, we found that it was a bit complicated, and maybe 04 is outdated.”

"what?"

Rick began to explain to Zhong Gui—

It turns out that Zhong Gui handed the data over to Qi Xing, who then gathered Liyue alchemists to form a new research department.

Then they assembled the generator according to the information, and finally formed a complete unit, creating a complete system.

Of course, this system is imitation.

Then, an alchemist, having some free time, began to modify it according to his own understanding, eventually skipping a lot of steps and creating a generator unique to Liyue.

As we all know, energy originates from burning boilers, and even nuclear power uses boilers, just with a different kind of "firewood".

The information obtained by Liyue was similar, resembling thermal power generation, which uses the heat energy generated when combustibles burn to heat water, turning it into high-temperature, high-pressure steam, which then drives a generator to generate electricity.

Then there are energy storage devices, transformer booster devices, and so on, and finally the electricity is delivered to every household.

Then the alchemist got tired of tending the boiler, and then—

"He omitted everything before that and started using elemental force to convert electricity, directly supplying it to energy storage devices and voltage boosting devices..."

"After testing, it was found that the entire unit uses ubiquitous elemental power, which is safe and pollution-free, and most importantly, it saves money..."

Zhong Gui: "..."

Although Rick didn't say it explicitly, Zhong Gui understood what he meant.

Boss, let's do this!

Good heavens, who is such a genius who, after understanding the principles, immediately jumped out and created a scientific system unique to Liyue?

"This isn't bad news, it's even better news!"

Rick nodded in agreement. The reason he called it bad news was simply to save face for the young master, since those were all things the young master had provided; it couldn't be said that they could easily surpass the young master's achievements.

"So surpassing me is bad news?"

"Advisor, mind reading is wrong."

"If you can't read minds, what else do you want?"

Zhong Gui was brushing her teeth when Rick didn't leave.

"There's one more thing. Another alchemist has invented a street lamp... that doesn't need electricity."

Zhong Gui stopped brushing his teeth, looking at Rick with a strange expression in his eyes, "..."

"Inspired by the alchemist who was researching generator sets, another alchemist developed streetlights that do not require electricity, just like the solar streetlights in the document, except that they use elements instead."

Zhong Gui: "..."

"Furthermore, inspired by this, there's been a massive breakthrough in elemental lighting technology that doesn't require electricity, and the chain reaction started yesterday..."

Zhong Gui washed his face and calmly wiped it.

"consultant?"

"Go ahead and do what you need to do." Zhong Gui smiled and used his divine power to create a comic strip. "Turning Liyue into this form, I don't care what methods you use, it's all fine."

Those materials are just a starting point. Whether Liyue takes that path or not, as long as it develops its own system, it doesn't matter.

When it comes to developing technology, he cares about the results; he doesn't care about the process.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that any outcome is acceptable.

The comic strip he gave Rick was in the Liyue style. It depicted a Liyue design drawing created after he found a hermit, told him his imagination, and went through several revisions.

It combines classical beauty with modern technology.

It's beautiful. As for how beautiful it is... you just need to know that the immortal who drew it almost fought the respected young lord to the death, and you'll know how beautiful this version is.

"The Lantern Festival is coming soon, go and make it, I'll need it then."

Then he gave Rick a whole bunch of design instructions and told Rick that what he wanted was the final effect.

For example, set up a large screen in Liyue Harbor, preferably virtual. How to do it is up to the alchemists. If their technology is not up to par, then they can copy Tony Stark's technology from the materials.

In summary: a large screen, no technical limitations.

Rick took the drawing to Keqing. It wasn't just about the technique; there were also construction issues. He wanted to ask Keqing's construction team if they could incorporate those elements, since haphazard construction in Liyue Harbor would look terrible in the current state.

After washing up, Zhong Gui stared blankly for a while. "The Lantern Festival is almost here. Time flies."

I've been back for more than half a year now. After the Lantern Festival, the winds in Teyvat should pick up soon, right?

The winds blow from Mondstadt, and everything will change.

"Hmm... Is there still room for change in Liyue?"

Zhong Gui shook his head, trying to stop thinking about it; he was still preparing the meal.

Zhong Gui dressed and walked out of the Hall of Rebirth. Today, he wouldn't eat at Juxialou; he should try the cooking at Wanmintang instead.

After crossing the 293 wooden bridge, Zhong Gui arrived at Chihu Rock. He greeted everyone he knew and walked past the stone seller with a wary look in his eyes.

Honestly, all I did was gamble a few stones to pay off the old man's debt, why are you making such a fuss?

So, why is the old man here so early in the morning to listen to Tian Tiezui ramble on about the Emperor?

Zhong Gui saw Zhong Li sitting in the tea room from a great distance, but the old man shook his head when he saw Zhong Gui.

Getting up before the sun is high in the sky is so lazy.

Zhong Gui: "..."

What's going on? Seeing me shake my head? It's decided, I'm not reimbursing your expenses today!

Wait, I think I pre-paid? Oh well.

"Hey Master Mao, it's been two days. Is Xiangling here?" As soon as Zhong Gui entered Wanmintang, he greeted Master Mao.

"Zhong Gui? You haven't been here for a while. Xiang Ling is in the kitchen. Tell me if you want anything."

"Brother Zhong Gui? You're here!" Xiang Ling, carrying a potsticker and a spoon, came out and happily greeted Zhong Gui.

“Brother Zhong Gui, last time…”

P.S.: Thanks to "Evil Forces" and "Shiba Inu Fords" for their update requests; thanks to "Diligent," "175…," "Otto Apocalypse," and "Can You Only Write About Useless Starts?"; thanks to "hei.." and "Shaman Went Crazy Again" for their donations. Thank you all, bosses!

Chapter 111 Miss Keqing, have you ever experienced despair?

"Brother Zhong Gui, thank you for the recipe you gave me last time. I've already recreated a lot of it," Xiang Ling said to Zhong Gui with a smile, after being forcibly pulled out by Guo Ba.

Before Zhong Gui could say anything, Xiang Ling's face fell again. "But there's one thing I don't know how to do: how does it emit golden light? Why can't I do it?"

"Hehehe~" Zhong Gui held up a finger and wagged it, saying, "That requires understanding your own culinary heart to achieve~"

"Lulu Lulu!" Guoba patted Zhong Gui on the shoulder, seemingly annoyed, as if to say he was talking nonsense.

"Guoba, don't hit me!"

"Lululu!"

"ok, ok, I got it."

Then Zhong Gui looked at Xiang Ling, who was deep in thought, and rubbed Guoba's head with one hand and the little girl's head with the other. "Alright, brother was just kidding you. Our Xiang Ling has already grasped the essence of cooking."

"A hundred flavors for every person," Xiangling's dishes taste like home, like the flavors of Liyue.

She is a genius no less than Little Chef, and a chosen one blessed by the Kitchen God.
