The black mud under the Chasm still needed to be dealt with.
So in the end, he could only ask Azhdaha to take another look there.
When he had time, he would discuss it with Azhdaha.
Takumi piloted the spaceship and soon returned to the manor.
It was already afternoon.
No one was home.
Only Gracie was still drawing quietly.
Everyone else was out doing their own tasks.
Putting the spacecraft away, Takumi walked back into the house with Ningguang and Shenhe.
After returning, Ningguang immediately handled work through her phone.
She had already instructed people to begin expanding Qingxu Pool.
But there were still matters at Liyue Harbor she needed to review.
As she tapped on her phone, she spoke:
"Parts of Liyue Harbor have been rebuilt already."
"Tell me, should I rebuild the port area as well?"
"Some wooden structures can't meet current demands anymore."
It was something she had already noticed—
and something that had appeared in multiple reports.
Because cargo volume increased drastically and ships grew larger,
the old docks could no longer support the load.
There were even cases of wood breaking.
Takumi froze, then frowned.
"The pier should be rebuilt."
"Some houses around the docks should be reclaimed as well."
"Turn them into larger container storage areas."
"Or warehouses."
"Even though most ships go to Guiliyuan now, Secret Harbor is still crucial."
"You can definitely put this on the agenda."
Ningguang nodded.
"In that case, I'll move forward with it."
"Part of the harbor collapsed recently."
"People and vehicles fell straight into the sea."
"Fortunately, no one died."
"We can't continue like this."
She let out a sigh.
Liyue was developing rapidly.
Old structures were becoming obsolete.
Many places needed reconstruction—
old homes, docks, and more.
Soon even more areas would need upgrades.
Another troublesome matter to handle.
"After Jueyun Jian is finished, demolish everything that needs demolition."
"Then rebuild."
Ningguang made her decision.
Takumi nodded.
If they were going to rebuild, they should rebuild properly.
"Speaking of which, the mountain roads were repaired, right?"
"How are the adeptus temples?"
"Have you checked on them?"
It had been a long time.
Had Ningguang completed the scenic areas he had suggested before?
Hearing that, Ningguang rolled her eyes.
"How long has it been since you checked on anything?"
"They've long been completed."
"They're open to the public."
"Many people go to the mountains to pray to the adepti."
"After all, they really are adepti."
"Some even like watching the sunrise from Mt. Aozang."
"The hotel there is so full you can't walk to your room."
"You should pay attention sometimes."
"These were your ideas."
She was speechless.
So long, and he still didn't know anything?
Was he completely carefree?
Takumi scratched his head helplessly.
"Alright."
"I really haven't paid much attention."
He admitted it.
He forgot the moment construction began.
He always dug the hole—
never filled it.
After mumbling to himself for a moment, he stopped thinking about it.
Instead, he checked the status on his phone.
Since the scenic areas opened, many people preferred traveling outdoors.
Liyue's security improved significantly.
There was no need to worry about hilichurls anymore.
So of course people with money would travel.
Because of this, Liyue's tourism industry was thriving.
After reading the reports, Takumi put down his phone.
Everything was progressing well.
There was great potential for future development.
"We still have a lot to build."
"There's huge potential in these areas."
"Slowly, let the people of Liyue settle in every region."
"They don't need to stay crowded in one place."
"The next step is to let all of Liyue flourish."
"We increase the population."
"And create more jobs."
Hearing this, Ningguang nodded.
"I know."
"But this will be a long project."
"By the time we finish, we might already be retired."
She reminded him gently.
It would take a very long time.
Takumi shook his head.
"It's not a big problem."
He paused.
"Maybe one day, all the people from Mei's world will be transferred here."
"No one knows."
Considering time…
Kevin might arrive soon.
If their world truly became hopeless—
the people there might all come here.
Ningguang's eyes flashed strangely.
"If that day comes…"
"Are you planning to let them live with us?"
Takumi shrugged.
"If possible, why not?"
"There are so many of them."
"But transferring them will be difficult."
"Unless—"
"They bring an entire continent with them?"
"And we create a new continent on our sea to hold it?"
He laughed.
It wasn't impossible.
Just let them govern themselves.
But if that happened, the worlds would merge.
Could they truly merge?
It was an interesting thought.
"Still too far away."
"No need to think about it now."
Ningguang shook her head.
She didn't bother with distant scenarios.
Better to focus on Liyue's present development.
Takumi nodded.
Indeed.
It was too far away to consider now.
