My daily life in Teyvat as a demon
Chapter 238 House of Curiosities
"Thank you Mr. Ye for choosing me to do an exclusive interview with you."
Charlotte adjusted her glasses, took out a pen and paper, and looked serious.
Since the news of Ye Qingchen's arrival spread after Fengdan left, many reporters have been looking for him. After all, if they find him now, it means first-hand information, and it will be on the headlines that day, right?
Qingchen thought about it and naturally found Charlotte.
What everyone wants most is first-hand information, so why not just give it to others first? By then, the enthusiasm of the reporters will also be reduced.
"Ms. Charlotte, you've interviewed me before, right? Why do you still look so excited?"
"This is your first time in Fontaine, and it's certainly different from the interview in Liyue. And you came to me directly, doesn't this mean that you consider me a friend? I'm very honored."
Charlotte smiled.
"In that case, you can just call me Qingchen, and I'll call you Charlotte, how about that?"
Qingchen asked.
"Of course, I am glad to do so."
Charlotte nodded.
Then, Charlotte asked some general questions, such as why did you come to Fontaine, when did you arrive, and why you didn’t have any plans for a book signing this time…
Qingchen answered them one by one.
As expected, Charlotte filled a whole page.
"Now other colleagues will envy me."
Looking at the records in her hand, Charlotte was quite delighted.
"I'm glad I could help." Qing Chen nodded.
"Well, Mr. Ye...Qingchen, if you don't mind, how about I take you around Fontaine?"
Charlotte suggested, her cheeks slightly reddening.
Why does this name feel so intimate? I feel a little embarrassed.
Qingchen glanced at the other two women, and after seeing that they had no objection, he agreed: "In that case, I'll trouble you."
------
Qingchen's group of people traveling together was very eye-catching.
Not to mention that Charlotte herself is a famous reporter for the Steam Bird News, Qingchen's handsome appearance and the two beautiful girls beside him are also eye-catching.
Not to mention that Qingchen's appearance had been published in the newspaper before, and many people knew him, and soon people gathered around him.
Charlotte blocked it for Qingchen, but inevitably, people on the side of the road looked at them curiously.
Qingchen didn't care. He had encountered such gazes from time to time in Liyue, and he was used to it.
"Bai Tang House of Curiosities, looks good."
Walking on the street, Qingchen looked at the shops on both sides and became interested in the shops selling some rare items.
"Mr. Ye, would you like to come and take a look?"
The owner, Meqini, invited him with her eyes brightening.
"Yeah," Qingchen responded, and then he became curious, "From the looks of you, you know me too?"
"Haha, I quite like Mr. Ye's songs and books, but I don't listen to or read them often, otherwise it makes me feel uncomfortable."
Mekini said with a smile.
This is true and I am not just being polite.
Qingchen's works are really hard to bear and make your nose sore every time you watch them.
“Thank you for your support. Do you have any recommended products?”
"Of course, there have been a few items that caught my eye recently."
Meqini invited a few people into the store.
A light aroma of incense wafted into my nose, but it wasn't offensive. The first thing that caught my eye was a robot.
"Is there anyone who wants to buy this? It's not something that can be bought and sold at will in Fontaine, right?"
Qing Chen raised his eyebrows.
"It's just a model, scrapped, for exhibition only."
Mekini explained with a smile.
"I see."
Unlike the merchandise in stores like Fontaine, the merchandise here gives Qingchen a feeling that is closer to his previous life.
After all, Fontaine’s technology is more advanced.
Various machine parts, antiques, jewelry... all kinds of things unique to Fontaine, even autographed photos of Funina.
“Will you put this here too?”
Qing Chen raised his eyebrows.
"After all, Lady Funina is our star at Fontaine, but someone is willing to pay a high price for her."
Mei Qini covered her mouth and chuckled, "To be honest, we also have your hand-painted paintings in our store."
As she spoke, she took out a rolled-up scroll from a cabinet.
A landscape painting, with Ye Qingchen's signature in the lower right corner.
"This was sold by a Liyue person who came to Fontainebleau for tourism. After a lot of changes, it was collected by our store. Take a look. It's not a fake, right?"
Qingchen took the painting in surprise. The content of the painting was roughly a group of mountains among the clouds.
On a secluded path, there is a beautiful woman, and the whole picture looks like a fairyland - although it is indeed the residence of fairies.
"It is indeed I who drew this. As far as I can remember, the character in the painting belongs to you."
Qingchen nodded and glanced at Guizhong.
Gui Zhong's eyebrows were curved, and he was obviously quite amused.
"That's good. To be honest, fakes are common in our line of work, but I'm lucky this time. This painting is real."
Mekini breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's inevitable," Qingchen nodded in agreement, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a glass counter with several jewelry boxes inside.
As you walk forward, translucent gems come into view, shining like stars.
A ring, a necklace, and a bracelet that seemed a little dim in comparison.
"this is…"
"Do you like this? A merchant friend sold them to me a year ago. They were originally a set, but the bracelet seems to have been damaged and is not as clear as before. It's a pity." Meqini showed a regretful expression, "This caused their overall price to drop significantly... But the ring and necklace are still very beautiful, so I kept them here. The special minerals used are very good and the price is relatively expensive. Rich people go to special jewelry stores to buy such things, so they have been kept here."
"I see. How much is it? I'll buy it."
Qingchen said simply.
"Huh? You want this?" Mei Qini was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the women behind Qingchen with sudden realization on their faces.
After a moment's silence, he said, "How about this, if you have any paintings that you plan to sell later, please give priority to our store. We will sell these jewelry to you at half price. How do you think?"
"Oh? That's fine with me, but you'll lose money, right?"
"It's just a few pieces of jewelry, nothing special. In contrast, getting to know Mr. Ye is more important. If it wasn't for the fact that I spent a lot of money on it, I could have just given it to you."
Mei Qini smiled, took the jewelry out from the counter, carefully packed it and handed it to Qingchen.
"This set of jewelry is called Stars."
"Xingchen... a nice name."
Qingchen nodded and glanced at the counter. There was still a brooch left that was obviously cheaper.
After thinking about it, Qingchen bought that one as well and handed it to Charlotte.
"Yes, Charlotte, just consider it as a tour guide fee. It can also be regarded as a meeting gift between friends."
“Eh?” Charlotte’s eyes widened and she waved her hands in panic. “No, no, this is too expensive!”
It's very sparkly, and although it doesn't look as good as the "Star" set of jewelry, it's definitely worth a lot of money.
"Well, consider it as a thank you gift for helping me block the onlookers. If it weren't for the fact that Xingchen's bracelet is a set with the others, I was going to give that one to you."
They have been busy for a long time. I am a man with three women. I can't just let Charlotte watch.
Charlotte was flattered. She carefully accepted the brooch and thanked him repeatedly.
Gui Zhong and Fanan stared at him with pouty mouths. Qing Chen smiled helplessly and patted their heads. "Don't worry, I don't mean anything else. Don't be jealous. Here, the ring and necklace."
"Humph."
