A new day has arrived!
Alex began to get excited. He wondered what his Primogem income would be like today.
It was the first day of business, and there hadn't been much prior publicity, so they might not have many customers.
Alex felt that if he could get a hundred Primogems in exchange, he would already be very satisfied.
An income of one hundred a day was also quite good.
Alex then went to the Palais Mermonia, where he happened to meet Clorinde. He was moving around in the Palais Mermonia, probably handling his own affairs.
"Good morning, Clorinde," Alex greeted him.
"Hmm, good morning," Clorinde said, and then added, "Since you came first, follow me, and let's get your affairs handled together."
"Alright," Alex nodded, handing him a freshly made lemonade, "Want a cup?"
Clorinde said nothing, but took the lemonade and continued to lead the way with it in his hand.
Afterward, just running up and down in the Palais Mermonia, getting stamps and filling out forms, was enough to annoy Alex. Fortunately, Clorinde was there to help him resolve most of it.
In just over half an hour, all the preparations for setting up the stall were completed.
Finally, Clorinde led Alex to the Special Patrol Unit headquarters.
Opening the door, the sound of gunshots hitting targets continuously echoed from within.
A familiar voice came from the purple-haired figure in front of Alex: "Moving target score: nine points. Why didn't the last shot hit the bullseye? Your training volume is doubled today. Just being able to hit stationary targets accurately isn't enough. Tomorrow I want to see your progress… Next!"
As soon as he entered, Alex heard a familiar voice reprimanding a team member.
"Chevreuse!" Clorinde called out from the doorway.
Chevreuse turned and saw Clorinde, then said to everyone, "You all continue training; I'll come back to check again later."
Phew. The team member who was supposed to be assessed next by Captain Chevreuse secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he also had to train more today, just like the previous one. If he had shot just now, he might not have performed as well as the previous team member.
Not only him, but all the team members couldn't help but feel their hearts tighten.
Captain Chevreuse was really too strict! That person's score was so good, already surpassing most people.
"Da da~" Chevreuse walked towards Clorinde, placed one hand on his hip, and directly asked, "What is it?"
"Today, I need you to lead a few people to patrol more around the Adventurers' Guild," Clorinde said.
"Oh? Have you found traces of some criminal?" Chevreuse became interested.
Clorinde shook his head slightly: "He is setting up a stall near there; you are responsible for helping maintain order in the vicinity."
"Oh, setting up a stall?" Chevreuse looked at Alex with some curiosity.
"Yes, that's right, I plan to sell a lemon drink," Alex said, then immediately demonstrated by mixing a medium-sized lemonade on the spot.
Chevreuse's eyes widened. The little blue figure that appeared, wasn't that the image of Hydro Archon Furina?
And it was even spraying water from its mouth into the cup.
Chevreuse looked at the lemonade again.
"Take it and drink it, it's on me!" Alex shook the cup twice.
Clorinde, standing nearby, raised the cup in his hand at this moment and took a few sips through the straw.
Seeing Clorinde drink it like that, and it seemed to be the water he made, Chevreuse took it in the next instant and then also took a few sips through the straw.
Chevreuse's movements suddenly paused slightly, and then his pupils visibly widened.
"Sip, sip, sip." In a short while, Chevreuse finished the small, medium-sized lemonade drink.
"Hmm, if you're going to sell this, the scene will indeed be a bit chaotic. How about this… I'll dispatch another team to help you all," Captain Chevreuse of the Special Patrol Unit accepted their request.
Alex said gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work! Before you leave, I'll give each team member who comes to maintain order a free medium lemonade!"
Indeed, there couldn't be too few people helping maintain order; they couldn't be treated poorly. Otherwise, Alex couldn't imagine how chaotic the scene would be.
After eating and resting for an hour in the Palais Mermonia, the items Clorinde had designed this morning were urgently produced by the carpenters and artists.
Then Alex followed Clorinde, and Chevreuse led a dozen team members on foot towards the Adventurers' Guild.
There were quite a few people; teleporting one by one would be too much of a loss. Besides, it wasn't far from Lione District. They just had to walk down.
"To the stars…"
"It's nothing!" Damn it, this time Alex just passed by, and it triggered Katheryne to say her lines.
"Are you here to submit four 討伐委托?" Katheryne asked the next moment.
"Just passing by! I'll take care of those four commissions later." Alex was a bit annoyed. This Katheryne, even when he just passed by, she had to ask and urge him about the progress of the commissions.
"Alright, we will await your good news," Katheryne smiled at Alex.
Afterward, Alex came to a nearby street corner, took the stall cart that someone was helping to push behind him, and placed it by the roadside.
Then, he once again took out the big loudspeaker that had tricked him once at the beginning!
"It's not too much to use this to hawk, right?" Alex looked at Clorinde and Chevreuse.
"Oh? Do you want all of Fontaine to hear it?" Clorinde said, shaking his head and rejecting Alex's suggestion to use the loudspeaker: "Actually, a few days ago, without your knowledge, a new law was added in Fontaine. From now on, it is forbidden to use loudspeakers to shout across the city, forbidden to use loudspeakers to spread rumors and cause trouble, and forbidden to use loudspeakers to confess love to Hydro Archon Furina."
Alex's eyes widened in disbelief and surprise: "Good heavens! I really just learned about this! Was this done by Furina? This law is clearly directed solely at me!"
Chevreuse said from the side, "You can think of it another way; the release of this law also simultaneously blocked the path for others to imitate."
"Oh! Chevreuse, you're amazing! As expected of Chevreuse, who loves detective novels, his thinking is clear enough. What you said makes so much sense!" Alex's eyes lit up, and he looked at Chevreuse with some admiration. If he hadn't said it, he would never have thought there was another layer of meaning.
"It's alright!" Chevreuse said somewhat modestly.
Without the loudspeaker's boost, he didn't know how many people he could attract to watch and buy with Primogems just by shouting… Fortunately, Alex had another preparation. He took out an item produced in Liyue… a gong!
Alex picked up the matching wooden mallet and, in the next moment, struck it hard.
"Boom~~~"
The echo of the gong reverberated through half of Lione District.
"…" Clorinde and Chevreuse were somewhat speechless. Looking at Alex's posture, was he going to imitate the opening of a Liyue street performance?
Everyone who was passing by and preparing to leave looked towards Alex.
