Chapter 180 Follow-up Actions
"In short, the Three Mysterious Association has been eliminated. Now should be a great opportunity for Liyue Harbor to regain control of all order."
Uncle Tian touched his chin and said, "In the past, if it was just the Sanxuan Society, it would not be a big deal for the overall situation. But now there are foreign forces , and the gray area must be controlled by our people."
Keqing agreed, "That's right. The Fatui have already submitted relevant reports to us on various matters they have done in Liyue. We cannot treat them as an ordinary diplomatic mission."
"Except for the elusive executive codenamed 'Madam,' every aspect of Liyue seems to be under the charge of that Young Master Tartaglia."
"Just a few days ago, he led the Fatui's combatants to explore some places with ancient ruins. As for the reason, it is unknown for the time being."
"If they are just using the excuse of archaeology, we have no obvious reason to stop them, but we can use some rules and regulations to restrict their actions, such as contacting treasure-stealing groups."
"Well, if I remember correctly, it seems that Gu has a very good relationship with that young master. Should we let him handle this matter?"
"Regarding this, my little brat has actually already taken action."
Ningguang calmly took a sip of tea and said, "As for the results, we should be able to see them soon."
"To capture the members of the Sanxuan Society, we will mainly focus our energy on Qingce Manor. We must not let go of any of the evil guys."
"Young people come to Liyue Port to work hard. As an official department, we must provide adequate protection for the safety of their hometown."
…
In the suburbs, at the Fatui's base, Tartaglia sat in the main seat, looking with a smile at a guy sitting opposite her, hiding himself in a cloak.
"How about exchanging those people's lives for your subordinates? Anyway, those guys I want are not members of your treasure-stealing group, let alone your direct subordinates. Using those guys' lives to exchange for your subordinates should be a very profitable thing."
"Huh, should this be considered forced buying and selling?"
The man in the cloak laughed bitterly: "You kidnapped my people first, and then negotiated with me. This negotiation, or transaction method, is really rough."
"You should know that they are members of the Sanxuan Society. If you want to do something to them, aren't you foreigners afraid of retaliation? At that time, it will even implicate me."
"You don't have to worry about that."
Tartaglia waved his hand and said, "So you agree, right? Let them do it."
The second half of the sentence was said to the Thunder Hammer Guard who was standing in the tent with his arms folded. The latter nodded and walked out. After a battle accompanied by screams, a group of bruised and battered guys were tied up and thrown into the tent.
"Mr. Executive, it's them."
"Well, is there any remaining part? Never mind. I'm almost done with my work here, so I'll just play the game of catching thieves during this time."
Tartaglia picked up a piece of paper on the table, then smiled and waved goodbye to one of the leaders of the treasure-stealing group, then walked out of the tent and looked up at the sky.
"Master Executor, I don't understand why you chose to help that incense-bearer eliminate the members of the Sanxuan Society."
The Thunder Hammer Guards at the side could not help but say, "Even if you have an agreement in advance, letting our people have the right to speak in some gray areas is undoubtedly inviting a wolf into the house in Liyue terms. Would the heir of a thousand-year-old family be so stupid?"
"Haha, you've read a lot of books recently. Things are indeed as you said."
Tartaglia laughed: "But, this was discussed with that guy at the time, and do you know how this information came into my hands?"
YaYa pointed to the sky and said, "It fell from the sky, and it landed right in front of me."
"My friend is conveying a message, that is, if necessary, our every move will be under the watchful eyes of the other party, or even the Liyue high-level officials."
"He also made it very clear in the letter he sent me . Helping him capture the remaining members of the Sanxuan Society is the condition for me to get involved in the gray area. It can probably be classified as bringing in capital to invest."
YaYa smiled and said, "As for what you said about letting a wolf into the house, maybe for the land of Liyue, they don't care that much about this."
"As long as they do not violate the law and peace, Liyue, the land of thousands of ships and sails, can accept anyone to make a profit here, and this naturally includes us, the Fatui."
"And, in my opinion..."
YaYa smiled, but her smile seemed a little helpless.
"As long as he keeps in touch with this friend of mine, he will do anything to cause unrest or break the law, and sometimes he even wants to drag me into it."
"Don't worry that the Liyue Seven Stars will attack us. Everything is safe until we do something that angers the heavens and the people."
Just as the Seven Stars and the Fatui were taking action and holding meetings to discuss the cleanup work for the Sanxuan Society, Gu Sanqiu and Xiao had already finished their cleanup work.
The Canxin Bone Pen also broke into pieces after being used to its limit, and then turned into black smoke and gradually dissipated.
Xiao told Gu Sanqiu that these past few days had been quite tiring, and he would take Gu Sanqiu out for a meal.
Then, Immortal Xiao brought Gu Sanqiu to Wangshu Inn.
"Oh, I haven't seen you for a while."
Philgodette looked at Xiao who appeared in front of her, and Gu Sanqiu whose hair was messy due to the wind, and was slightly surprised.
"Is this the diner you're having dinner with today? You always eat alone, so this is really rare."
"It's still the same as always. Trouble."
Xiao glanced at Gu Sanqiu and said, "Order whatever you want to eat."
…
Gu Sanqiu scratched his head, then pointed at Xiao: "Be like him."
"No problem. Two servings of almond tofu will be delivered right away. Please wait for a moment."
The two of them came to the dining table next to the kitchen and sat down. Gu Sanqiu took out a bottle of wine, took the glass and poured himself a glass.
"Brother Xiao, if you don't drink alcohol, would you like to drink juice?"
"juice?"
Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it the kind that is made by mixing the juice of raspberries, mint, and Jueyun peppers?"
Hey, hey, this can’t be another dark dish that our ancestor came up with, right?
"No, no, it's real juice. What you're talking about is definitely a weapon, right? And it's something on the level of chemical weapons."
"Well, that thing is indeed used in war. Your ancestors named it 'fire-tempered juice'."
"At that time, there was a sea beast causing trouble in a water source, but in order to ensure the water supply, no radical means could be used. Then your ancestors came up with the idea of using fruit juice to stimulate the beast to escape ."
"No, no, no, that thing can't be called juice at all. It's a chemical weapon, okay?"
Gu Sanqiu's mouth twitched: "Are you sure that the water source in that place can still be used after using that strange thing?"
