Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

As long as an aftermath sweeps over accidentally,

Then the next time this group of people see each other again might have to wait a hundred years.

"."

"Well, okay, since the General Affairs Department also has relevant compensation regulations, then I will listen to you, brother.

I would also like to advise my colleagues who are planning to take risks to stay calm for the time being."

After hearing this, the businessman who was sitting at the top and was called "Brother Zhang" by others,

It seems that I am no longer entangled in anything.

After a light sigh, he seemed to feel a lot more relaxed.

——The guy from the Northland Bank is obviously not a good person. If I take his business, I am afraid I will get money but not live to spend it.

It would be better for him and his brothers not to get involved in this matter and just listen to Prince Yan.

at the same time,

On the Qunyu Pavilion on the southwest side of Liyue Harbor,

Ningguang has been so busy lately that she even looks a little haggard.

It also happened to be in front of a blue-haired girl who was delivering documents behind him.

Received an executive report submitted by the secretaries.

".All merchants from various countries in Liyue, except for a small number of merchants traveling in the wild, have been notified."

".Residents of scattered villages throughout the territory, including workers of the Layered Abyss, have been evacuated to Qingce Village and Liyue Harbor.

Residents in the Chenyu Valley area have also been notified not to leave the village in the near future."

".The Qianyan Army, which was previously stationed in the wilderness area, has now formed a formation in various settlements under the order of the Emperor and is ready to fight at any time."

"."

"Bai Wen, Bai Xiao, notify everyone to speed up the evacuation of merchants.

If time is tight, you can choose a temporary shelter outside the village and make sure there are no uninformed people there. "

"——Also, have the personnel notify them that there is a high probability that many monsters will wreak havoc in the wild area.

If you enter the restricted area without permission, you will bear all the consequences yourself."

".Yes, Master Ningguang."

Bai Wen, who had short hair, and Bai Xiao, who had two pigtails, nodded and responded simply.

After the two secretaries of the Qun Yu Pavilion took the documents from Ning Guang's hands, they bowed slightly and returned to their work areas.

".Ganyu? Did your informant bring you some new information this time?"

After finishing the work at hand, Ningguang turned around and looked at the most experienced Seven Star Secretary behind her.

Ask the question directly using the efficient communication method that the other party is most accustomed to.

"Yes, this is the information that Miss Ye Lan asked me to pass on.

She seemed to be busy with other things.

So I was asked to deliver the daily reports and also bring the letters here."

Ganyu, who had been waiting here for a while, nodded and stated her purpose.

——Although I am not unfamiliar with Miss Ye Lan, who is absent from work nearly 70% of the time every year and has no idea about her specific work,

But it was the first time for Ganyu to directly help the other party deliver a report like this.

"."

"Well, please, let me take a look first."

After saying thank you, Ningguang took the secret letter sealed with special means from Ganyu's hand.

After skillfully removing the seal on it,

She also knew what Ye Lan was doing recently.

As expected, I got this information:

"——There are unusual personnel movements among the Fatui at the Northland Bank, suspected to be remotely directed by the "rich",

The whereabouts of the executive officer, "Gongzi," are currently unknown and are under investigation."

"."

shook his head,

Knowing his so-called "assistant"'s dedication to the Fatui,

In this situation, she couldn't contact Ningguang.

He sighed slightly and did not intend to interfere with the other party's free actions.

——In the past, the actions of the Fatui might have required some attention.

But if the other party really breaks into the restricted area this time,

Even if he is an executive, he can only pray that he is lucky enough.

——The oracle that the Emperor gave to the Seven Stars clearly indicated how high the level of this incident was.

It's fine if you just go to the edge of the area, but if you really rush into the battle point,

Then perhaps I should consider how to draft this obituary to be sent to Zhidong.

Thinking of this,

Looking at Ganyu who was about to leave after delivering the documents and continue with her work,

Ningguang was already somewhat suspicious of the Emperor's actions this time.

He called out to this "senior" who had the most seniority in the entire Liyue civil service system:

".Ganyu, can you please tell me what kind of existence the legendary 'Dragon King' that the Emperor is going to release this time is?

Why is there no relevant record in Liyue today?"

——For some unknown reason, this period of history seemed to have been erased by an invisible hand.

Even though Ningguang had read all the records,

Apart from some unofficial history that is difficult to distinguish true from false, no records about the 'Lord Rādhāra' have been found.

But this time the Emperor's attention is unprecedented.

All these actions were comparable to those recorded during the Demon War period, and Ningguang couldn't help but feel curious about it.

".Ah? The Dragon King?"

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Ganyu paused when she was called.

After a moment, she thought carefully and answered:

“Although I was still relatively young at that time,

So I can’t introduce you to all the relevant events in detail.”

"—but there is no doubt that

Senior Ruo Tuo is a powerful being who has defeated many demon gods in wars and even the emperor had to fight with all his strength. "

"."

After a brief pause, he thought that the Emperor had not explained the purpose of releasing the Ruotu Dragon King.

She roughly understood why Ningguang was confused, and continued to explain:

"Well, I know that for those who are in charge of the Chamber of Commerce in the Seven Stars, the Emperor's actions this time may seem a little difficult to understand.

After all, for Liyue, actively removing the seal would do more harm than good. "

"——But in the simplest terms,

So this time, the Emperor is actually helping Liyue to eliminate a disaster that is bound to break out in the future.

It is to deal with problems hundreds or thousands of years in the future at this point in time. "

The difference between the perspectives of the long-lived and short-lived species is very clear.

Ganyu was not surprised that some merchants were confused about this action.

After all, if the threat is still sealed, it may take thousands or tens of thousands of years for it to erupt.

Of course there is no need to make such a big fuss.

After all, once time is measured in thousands of years,

That is a period of time so long that it seems somewhat unreal to humans.

But for Ganyu, who knew exactly what kind of power the Ruta Dragon King possessed,

This sense of crisis is actually as urgent as tomorrow.

——Let’s not talk about whether the other party can seal it again after escaping.

What terrible aftermath would a battle of this level alone cause?

This is something that the people of Liyue, who have enjoyed peace for hundreds of years, cannot imagine.

Therefore,

Whether it is out of personal feelings or consideration for the future of Liyue,

Ganyu felt that the most appropriate option was to deal with it immediately at this point in time when there was enough strength.

".Okay, I will pass this information on to my colleagues.

I hope they can try their best after knowing this.”

After hearing Ganyu's words,

Ningguang, who had previously gone against all odds and done her best to follow the Emperor's instructions, also felt a little relieved.

Merchants pursue profits, and Ningguang, who is temporarily in charge of the Seven Stars,

What is most clear is how difficult it is to govern the complicated families and chambers of commerce in Liyue.

Ningguang never doubted the trust and loyalty of any Liyue citizen to the Emperor.

But the pursuit of profit is something that even the most loyal businessmen cannot avoid.

Thinking of the Northland Bank which seems to be a little uneasy recently,

Ningguang looked at Ganyu who turned and left after giving her warning.

shook his head,

In my heart, I also hope that those chambers of commerce that usually pretend to obey but actually disobey will be smarter this time.

——When all other Chamber of Commerce transportation work was forced to stop, this was indeed a good opportunity to make a lot of money.

But if you think the warning from the Seven Stars is insignificant and treat this god-level battle as a joke,

This incident should teach them a lesson they will never forget.

Put aside the complicated thoughts in your mind for the time being.

Sighed,

Ningguang turned back to the Jade Pavilion.

Thinking of the many evacuation tasks that had not been completed in time, he once again stepped up his work pace.

Return to somewhere in the original place.

"Boom——"

Affected by the increasingly active earth veins recently,

In this wilderness filled with demonic power, tremors often occur from beneath the ground.

At this moment, accompanied by a loud noise caused by the failure of the mechanism,

A new recruit in a mask and winter-style uniform,
