Chapter 1282 Zhongli's Commission
After the birthday party, Gu Sanqiu and Zhongli, two night owls, were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield, and everyone else was sent back to sleep.
"It's just that, Dad, what's the smell of the shower gel floating on your body? It's a bit novel."
Gu Sanqiu chuckled: "Now I finally understand why the girl bought a large box of cream."
If normal cream cakes are for eating, the extra box of cream purchased was specifically for turning Zhongli into a snowman.
"I'm curious why you're not here."
Zhongli wiped the dishes and said, "You didn't get beaten. This is almost impossible according to common sense."
"The birthday boy has spoken. After all, you are everyone's main target."
Gu Sanqiu wiped the table clean and said, "How about it, Dad? When the conference starts, you can be a special guest commentator for me?"
"A martial arts tournament is a good way to pass the time."
Zhongli asked the exact same question as Vulcan .
"This time, I'm sure there won't be any strange changes hidden from us."
"No, no, it's purely for making money and gaining fame."
Gu Sanqiu shrugged: "Whether it is the sub-competition areas of various countries or the finals, as long as the flow of people comes together, it will benefit many aspects. The General Affairs Department and Yue Haiting have been losing a lot of hair during this period."
When Gu Sanqiu proposed this plan, all the office workers were stunned.
We thought that Xiangzun, you were here to relieve our stress, but we didn't expect that you are the real devil!
Gu Sanqiu’s original words at the time were “Don’t worry, it’s just a large-scale sports event”, but the office workers didn’t think so.
For an entire Mora Paradise plus Liyue Harbor, considering the throughput capacity of passengers and various commodities, a very complete process plan must be formulated from now on, otherwise something big is likely to happen.
No, something big is going to happen!
Zhongli put the tools away neatly: "Security."
"Don't worry about this."
Gu Sanqiu stroked his chin and said, "The investment made by Qianyan Army over the years has not been in vain, and this time, all ten of us will be mobilized together."
"You're going to do it, right? Then I'm going to hang them all up high for public display."
"And, if nothing unexpected happens, some of the participants from Vulcan should also come over to take charge of this matter."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "What a pity, although it is a battle, it is actually more about fighting than killing, otherwise I might even be able to condense another law."
"Your unyielding spirit is very high. There is no need to rush it in a short time. In addition, your current physical condition is not suitable for continuing to materialize the law."
Zhongli said: "As for the special guest commentator, I have no problem with that. Do you have any other candidates?"
Gu Sanqiu thought about it and said , "Well, how about letting Brother Xiao do it? Anyway, the karma barrier is not so much an obstacle as it is a characteristic of Brother Xiao. It has no effect at all."
"Let Xiaoge be the special guest commentator. It will help him cure his social anxiety, so that he won't be unable to speak to a stranger."
"As for the other special guest commentators, it will be enough for a few from all over the world. For Inazuma, it will definitely be Kitsune and Chiyo, and Mond..."
The father and son suddenly fell silent.
"Dad, do you think if I ask my good uncle to come over for a concert or something at the opening ceremony of the martial arts tournament, will he refuse?"
Zhongli thought for a moment and said, "From a common sense perspective, as long as the money is enough, he shouldn't refuse."
"That's good."
Gu Sanqiu snapped his fingers and said, "But, I am looking forward to seeing a few acquaintances making it to the finals."
Zhongli was stunned: "Aren't you going to join the war?"
"No."
Gu Sanqiu calmly made tea: "I am over a thousand years old , I won't bully children."
“Besides, if I play, it’s good enough if my opponent can play normally.”
Question: When your opponent is a madman who can chop down even the shadow of the sky with two swords when he gets angry, will you feel pressured?
Answer: Nonsense!
Zhongli thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
"Yes, it would be beyond your scope if you go up there."
"Of course, the most important thing is to have a sense of suspense."
Gu Sanqiu poured Zhongli a cup and said, "Let's have a duel between people of similar strength. The expectation created by that time will be quite high."
Zhongli looked at his rebellious son and asked, "Do you want to open the market?"
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes: "How is that possible? If I really want to make a scene, it will definitely be the second brother who will do it, and then I will secretly tamper with the schedule and directly manage it."
"I can't control other places, but those who like to do this kind of thing the most in Liyue have been warned by Ye Lan. If you dare to open a market, you will go to Layer Rock to mine."
"Creating an atmosphere of anticipation can stimulate consumption, whether after the game or during the viewing period."
Zhongli: ...
To be honest, he felt relieved when the kid kept talking about making money. At least he didn't have to worry about him giving other people a huge scare for no reason.
"Come to think of it, there is something I really need your help with."
Gu Sanqiu put down the teacup, looking a little surprised.
"Is it so formal, Dad? Tell me about it."
"I need a weapon."
Zhongli thought for a moment and said, "A handy weapon. Don't tell me to go to Old Zhang Hanfeng to order one."
Gu Sanqiu's spell was interrupted and he scratched his head subconsciously.
"Oh, if we can't order from Lao Zhang, how about Xiao Jin? I think Xiao Jin's forging skills are pretty good now."
"No, you come."
Zhongli said: "The material must be of a standard that can withstand the test of immortals. Otherwise, it will affect the performance and the weapon may break into pieces if you are not careful."
Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "Really? I can understand why you made a new weapon and didn't let Guan Hong show it to the public, but why did you make such a powerful one?"
Aren't the guests of the Wangsheng Hall the kind who only know how to spend money? There are almost not enough elite monsters in Liyue to spawn, so why do you need to help?
“It needs to be a little different.”
Zhongli blew a breath of hot air: "The raw stone has an excellent effect on everyone, and I have always been in the eyes of some people. As a mysterious guest of Wangsheng Hall, I always have to be a little different."
"I can understand the purpose of your holding the martial arts competition. I think it should be used to weaken the differences between immortals and mortals, and further strengthen everyone's martial arts habits."
“When everyone changes, if someone doesn’t change, that’s the biggest flaw.”
Gu Sanqiu thought for a moment, "Oh, so that's it."
Zhongli nodded with satisfaction: " This young man is teachable ."
"That's actually quite simple, and there's also a way to directly strengthen Guanhong from the material aspect."
Gu Sanqiu gestured and said, "Wait for me to ask the Ten Gold Association and Li Ben to find a way to collect more demon god residues and the like, and then burn some elemental fire."
Zhongli:?
"what you up to?"
"It's just a weapon, simple."
Gu Sanqiu snapped his fingers and said, "Come on, old man. Let's gather some people and burn down everything under the Lonely Cloud Pavilion. Then we can make you a prototype of the Ten Thousand Gods and Thousand Demons Spear."
"A spear that embodies the power and dreams of all the defeated demons in Liyue since ancient times must be very powerful, right? Of course, it is also easy to transform into other types of weapons."
"If necessary, we can even forge the original embryo into a magical instrument, and make something like a bell, tripod, or pagoda seal to hold in our hands."
