Chapter 156 Adjournment
As soon as these words were spoken, not to mention the Knights of Favonius, even Tartaglia looked at Gu Sanqiu in surprise.
As a friendly country, isn’t your request a bit too outrageous?
No, it's really outrageous!
Even an executive of the Fatui with a villainous image like me has never proposed such a condition!
Are you the fool or am I the fool?
"Okay everyone, I know what you are thinking, don't worry, things are not what you think."
Gu Sanqiu was quite calm: "This cross-border law enforcement power is actually relative, which means that you Mond can also get it."
"Over the years, because our two countries share a border, there have been many evil treasure-stealing gangs, and even more vicious criminals, who always like to flee to the other country after committing crimes."
"In the Shimen area, this situation is extremely rampant. The meaning of this cross-border law enforcement power is literal."
"Why did those guys choose this method? Because although our two countries are friendly, whether it is entering the country to arrest or applying for cooperation in handling the case, it will waste a lot of time, and this time is very precious to the criminals."
"In order to take down all those idiots, I'll take this opportunity to tell you something."
Kaiya said, "Is this power of overstepping the boundaries the power that I understand as being able to execute first and report later?"
"Yes, if you are worried, you can add a restriction clause like 'only under certain circumstances' when drafting the contract."
"Well, if that's the case, then we can also get some convenience from it."
Gu Sanqiu nodded: "Yes, if possible, we can dispatch the forging masters of the two countries to cooperate and make a special token that is only circulated in official departments. This will also effectively prevent someone from taking advantage of the situation."
"When I was doing this, I had considered whether it would affect ordinary people. However, normally people would hang around there. Apart from caravans with full guards, there would be very few ordinary people taking that road. So there is no need to worry too much about this."
"This proposal is very interesting, but Mr. Gu, can you make the decision on behalf of Qixing? This is what our Knights of Favonius need to know ."
Qin asked, "This is a major policy issue between the two countries. Can you represent the Seven Stars?"
“Not a problem.”
Gu Sanqiu said calmly: "Anyway, this time I came to discuss with you just for the sake of intention. The specific treaty will definitely need to be drafted by professionals."
"Besides this, I have another request."
Gu Sanqiu said, "I need some notes on Mond's understanding of the element of wind. The subject matter is not limited. Just don't give me any weird experts' stuff to defraud funding."
"Okay, we can agree to your request right now. Is there anything else you need?"
Gu Sanqiu frowned slightly. In fact, what he wanted most was to meet Barbatos.
However, unlike the ruler like the Emperor who could see the true face of the God of Wind during the ceremony of inviting the God of Wind, Barbatos, as a leading figure in the world of slacking off, Mond had no reliable way to contact the God of Wind at all.
In comparison, perhaps the prayer of the West Wind Church counts as one?
Therefore, if you want to contact Barbatos, you must have the emperor's letter, in which case the other party may contact you on his own initiative.
But if you bring that thing here, many things will be difficult to ask openly .
"Forget it, I don't have any more. It would be great if you could give me some Mondstadt specialties, or..."
Gu Sanqiu touched his chin, then took out a piece of paper from his bosom: "Some of the merchants listed here have a good relationship with me. Please give them some good goods next time when you trade with them, or open up more trade goods."
In today's Liyue, Mora and reputation are the best catalysts for a person's actions.
Gu Sanqiu and Qixing both agreed on reputation. It was not something you could get just because you wanted it. Honor could only be reserved for true heroes.
But it is impossible to let the horse run without giving it grass to eat, so we have to start with Mora.
"Okay, no problem."
Noelle stepped forward to take the list, bowed to Gu Sanqiu, and then handed the list to Qin.
"So, this is the end of our discussion?"
Kaiya glanced at Gu Sanqiu and Tartaglia and said, "It will probably take some time for us to come up with the result of the overseas law enforcement authority. In addition, the record in the West Wind Church's books also needs the consent of the Cardinal. I'll trouble you two to wait for a few more days."
"No problem."
Both of them were quite calm. They would wait a few more days. As long as the compensation they wanted was in accordance with their wishes, everything would be acceptable.
"Wow, eh? Is everyone here?"
At this moment, Ke Li woke up on time, moved on Gu Sanqiu's arm, and then greeted everyone.
"Kelly!"
Qin emphasized: "Get off Mr. Gu."
Klee used [Rapid Leap], and the rage value of the big boss [Jin] was reduced.
"Kelly!"
Qin's tone became more serious again: "Did you forget what to say?"
"Oh...Oh! That's right!"
Keli clapped her hands, bowed slightly to Gu Sanqiu , and the little red hat on her head shook a little.
"Thank you, big brother~"
(＊′▽｀)ノノ
"You're welcome."
Gu Sanqiu took out a lollipop and stuffed it into the other person's pocket: "Go and play."
After the meeting, the two declined Qin's invitation to "have dinner with the members of the Knights", but Gu Sanqiu suggested that everyone could go to Angel's Gift to have a drink together.
The reason is very simple. It is true that this kind of official dinner party is not exciting. If this was a private invitation from Jean, then it would be a "dinner with friends from the Knights Templar". This kind of dinner party would be fun.
After walking out of the Knights' Gate, Yaya nudged Gu Sanqiu with her elbow.
"Hey, you, why did you suddenly want to ask for overseas law enforcement power? Don't you think it's very abrupt to say it?"
"Is it abrupt? Not bad."
Gu Sanqiu spread his hands: "When we discuss compensation, according to some unspoken rules, we should be separated. This will help them bargain and prevent us from getting any information from each other."
"Oh, that does make sense. So, is the reason they did this to tell us directly that it's impossible for us to obtain something precious?"
"That's probably the understanding, but it can also be interpreted as part of Mondstadt's 'freedom'."
Gu Sanqiu glanced at Yaya and said, "Besides, don't you think the things I want are superficial?"
"If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten to ask you."
Tartaglia was surprised and said, "Those notes of enlightenment that can be taken out by simply copying them, and the so-called list of preferential merchants, they don't seem to match your efforts this time."
"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that you are a great contributor to this trip to the secret realm. If you hadn't proposed all these requests yourself, I would have suspected that you were threatened by something."
