Rich:
[Stupid (mosaic)]
[Prodigal fool.]
[Dog (mosaic)]
The Rich kept swiping the group chat.
He even started a voice message directly.
Childe turned on the voice expressionlessly,
then turned it off.
Takumi and Ningguang watched this scene.
The corners of their mouths twitched slightly.
Good guy, really good guy.
Awesome.
The young master's operation actually forced the Rich into this state?
Really great!
Thinking of this, Takumi immediately felt pleased.
Wait until the group quieted down.
Only then did Childe send out a voice.
Childe:
[Have you finished cursing?]
[Give me the money after scolding.]
[You asked me to sign the contract—what kind of fools are you? Don't you have any sense?]
[Hurry up, send the money.]
[This contract is bound by the power of the Geo Archon.]
[As a Liyue person, you should know the consequences of breaking it, right?]
Dangerous warning!
The Rich listened to Childe's message.
It sounded bad for him.
Of course he knew what would happen to those who broke the contract.
Those who break their word will be punished by the Archon's wrath!
This was not just talk.
Have you ever seen a rock fall from the sky?
Although very unpleasant, the Rich could only pinch his nose and admit it.
Obediently, he transferred the money.
After transferring the funds, the Rich looked at the assembled people with a displeased face.
"Next, your expenses will be halved!"
Damn!
As soon as those words came out, the crowd exploded.
Even his colleagues were furious.
"NMD — use our funds to give to your son, right?"
"Let's start the factory at full capacity!"
"Next, we will sell our products to other countries."
"The Liyue Bank branch has already started to be built in Fontaine and Natlan."
"Prices in our Snezhnaya have risen a lot; if this continues, there will be a crisis."
"I don't want us paying 500,000 mora for a piece of bread in the future."
"Who knows what'll happen then!"
The Rich adjusted his attitude,
then discussed matters seriously with his colleagues.
Recently, Snezhnaya had been unlucky.
Ever since Liyue started producing various goods
and launched its own bank,
Snezhnaya's income had been greatly reduced.
In addition, when the rocket launched earlier, it was targeted again,
worsening the situation for Snezhnaya.
Many merchants were unwilling to go to the Winter Kingdom to do business.
Especially those traders from Liyue, Mondstadt and Sumeru.
In their opinion, it was no longer worthwhile to come north.
A waste of time.
It was easier to do business elsewhere.
Isn't that more convenient than coming to the Winter Kingdom?
Moreover, with new transport options,
many Winter Kingdom goods dropped by 80%.
It is easy to imagine how hard life was in Snezhnaya now.
Because of this, the Rich was eager for Childe to discuss many things at the airport:
build transport links, get merchants coming back, and bring in more money.
You know, some commodities are not available in Snezhnaya;
they must be shipped from abroad.
Like certain foods and the like.
Prices are soaring, and if it continues, there will be trouble.
If Takumi paid attention to Snezhnaya's situation,
he would see it was ripe for rebellion.
Maybe someone could raise a hand—
shout and gather people to overthrow the fools.
Make the Fatui apologize or step down.
Imagine the Snezhnayan queen being forced out—
exciting to think about.
Of course, that was just fantasy.
If such a person actually appeared, the Winter Queen would probably slap them to death without hesitation.
"All right."
"The money has arrived."
"I hope you won't talk about this matter!"
"Just the three of us know."
"In the future, I will find a chance to get some weapons in, and then you..."
I understand everything.
When he said that, Ningguang and Takumi understood in seconds.
Well, in this way, the money effectively belonged to Liyue.
"How about I give you a little more?"
Good guy.
How many billions have been squeezed out of the Rich?
As expected of you.
This time, Takumi regarded the young master differently.
Takumi wondered if Childe had earned a lot of money from his previous schemes.
It reminded him of the time Childe bought a network license.
Takumi couldn't help muttering,
"Let Nuwa check it later."
You will see how much the Rich transferred to Childe.
Thinking of this, the corners of Takumi's mouth rose slightly.
This guy was really entertaining.
…ask for flowers…
Hearing what Takumi said, Childe refused.
"No need!"
"As long as you don't talk about these things, it's fine."
"The money belongs to that guy anyway!"
He only needed 100 million.
Give the rest to Takumi.
Takumi shrugged.
If that's the case, he wouldn't be polite.
Just accept the money.
Childe didn't stay long at the General Affairs Department.
After handing the money to Takumi, he said goodbye and left,
earning another 100 million.
Happy.
Childe left in a cheerful mood.
After he left, Takumi and Ningguang looked at each other,
their eyes full of amazement.
Really a good guy.
The young master's actions had truly exceeded their expectations.
After confirming Childe was gone,
Takumi opened his mouth and said to Nuwa:
"Nuwa, check Childe's bank statement."
"How much did the Rich transfer to Childe?"
Nuwa checked and startled him.
"Good guy!!"
Listening to Nuwa's report, Takumi was astonished.
"I remember he spent 5 billion mora on that network access license?"
"And he got 6 billion from the Rich?"
"I took 1 billion for myself?"
Ningguang was also surprised.
How dare he.
If the Rich knew about this, wouldn't they skin Childe alive?
Why did the boy become like this?
Is it a corruption of human nature, or…
The corner of Takumi's mouth twitched slightly.
For Childe's series of operations,
Takumi was speechless.
After thinking for a moment, Takumi said:
"In the future, if someone asks how much the network access license for Snezhnaya cost, let's say 50 billion!"
"Well, help that guy more."
"Come cooperate next time~!"
The corners of Takumi's mouth rose when he said so.
He felt very pleased.
They had money to take, and the young master had money to make.
What's wrong with that?
Ningguang rolled her eyes.
She was also convinced.
Good guy—are you encouraging Childe to keep cheating Snezhnaya?
She complained inwardly for a moment,
but Ningguang said nothing.
Well, if there was money to be made, there was no need to interfere with the young master's affairs.
Anyway, it was Snezhnaya's money.
Next, some merchants might even go to the Winter Kingdom.
There would be opportunities to profit there.
Thinking of this, Ningguang's eyes suddenly lit up.
