Chapter 209: A Gathering Before the Lunar New Year
"Oh, what I want to say is that this kind of behavior of throwing garbage down from the sky is extremely illegal, and it is not in line with the 'Civilized and Sanitary Liyue Port' policy formulated by the Seven Stars."
"As for this aspect, didn't everyone in the General Affairs Department give you some advice?"
Ningguang twisted Gu Sanqiu's ear with a smile on her face.
"Those people would dig deep into the ground to collect these documents. Do you think they would be willing to let these documents be thrown away as real garbage?"
"Or does my brother just want to be weird?"
"No, if they were thrown like this, and the Jade Pavilion is located at such a high place, it stands to reason that a large part of them would float far to the suburbs. Could it be that someone would pick them up there?"
"Of course."
Bai Wen smiled softly: "Every year, those big businessmen will hire a lot of people to live in the suburbs. In addition to the basic daily salary, there will be bonuses according to the number and importance of the documents found."
"Normally, Lady Ningguang would ask us to throw the ball far away, so that we can earn some extra holiday money for ordinary people."
"After all, everyone still needs to work hard at this time. Apart from those who are really obsessed with money, these people are those whose families are in urgent need of funds and have to seize every opportunity to make money."
"Lady Ningguang said that it's not easy for everyone. If that's the case, why not take better care of them? It would be best if they can celebrate the holiday happily."
"With Xiangjun here, we don't have to do the strenuous work of throwing it far away."
"Oh, so that's how it is."
Gu Sanqiu nodded: "I understand. Then do you want me to use more strength and throw it directly outside Liyue Harbor so that the file can float to the south side of Guiliyuan without any problem."
"Calm down, I want to give them a chance to make more money, not to let them take risks in that kind of place. What if they encounter monsters?"
Ningguang shook her head helplessly: "Just throw it away, and go back to bed early after throwing it away."
"Sis, from the words you used just now, it seems that you have admitted that what I said is actually an activity of throwing away garbage."
"After the holidays, I will ask Yue Haiting to arrange an official position and the corresponding paperwork for you. If you don't come to work, you will be in trouble."
"I was wrong, I shut up."
Gu Sanqiu turned around and made a zipper gesture with his right hand to his mouth, indicating that he was now just an emotionless document-throwing machine.
The lights are bright and the snow is falling.
Laughter and joy make the years like poetry.
…
"Sanqiu, let me tell you, I found several documents last night. Can you help me find a merchant to sell them for a good price?"
In the Gu family courtyard, Hu Tao looked at Gu Sanqiu with eyes full of hope.
"Oh, give it to me, I'll pay you on the spot."
In fact, there was something Gu Sanqiu didn't dare to say. He always felt that the falling snow was actually a signal from Ningguang, a signal for holiday.
I'm about to take a vacation, so I'll give you some benefits to calm you down. Don't cause me trouble at this time, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences!
Of course, I couldn't say this to my sister in person, otherwise I would definitely be treated like a social animal, and I wouldn't be able to escape the treatment of being a lightning rod in the Qun Yu Pavilion...
After collecting the banknotes, Walnut happily ran to the table next to him and sat down quickly.
"Hey, this year's year-end bonuses for the Wangsheng Hall employees have been settled. Come on, let's continue and watch you, Sister Hutao, wreak havoc!"
"Keep going."
Xingqiu rubbed his hands in anticipation: "I haven't thought about getting together like this for a long time. Thirty thousand."
Xin Yan smiled as he played cards: "Yes, it's rare for everyone to get together like this. Maybe this opportunity only comes during festivals, Dongfeng."
"Bang, ninety thousand."
Chongyun looked at Gu Sanqiu who was watching the game with a mint in his mouth and said, "Old Gu, what do you think of my cards?"
"Not bad. By the way, have you two solved the problem with that wealthy family?"
"Easy."
Xingqiu almost raised his chin to the sky: "I just remembered later that this period of time happened to be the time when jades were falling and snow was falling. If the so-called alchemist had any unusual moves, he would definitely choose a lively or slightly chaotic time."
"I originally thought it would be during the Lantern Festival, but then I thought that the Thousand Rock Army in the city would definitely be under martial law at that time. So, if we infer that it would be convenient for him to take action, it would only be when the snow fell."
"That's fine. As expected of you, Xingqiu. Good luck!"
Xingqiu said proudly: "Of course, don't you see who I am? I am a new-age chivalrous warrior who combines wisdom and force , blank~"
"We win!"
Walnut slapped his cards down and said, "Hey, hand over your snacks, everyone."
Xingqiu stared at the field in a daze: "The game is only a few rounds away and you're still holding a blank slate in your hand?"
What a magical way of playing!
"Hehehe, all's fair in war, everyone. Even though it's a shady trick, it's a good trick if it can hurt people at the critical moment!"
Ψ(￣▽￣)Ψ
Now it was Walnut who had his chin almost raised to the sky, and in his hands were small snacks that were used as bargaining chips.
Xingqiu turned to look at Gu Sanqiu: "Are you doing this on purpose? Chatting with us to distract us at this critical moment!"
"Nonsense, you're such a bad cook and you still need an excuse."
Gu Sanqiu sneered: "You can't blame me for this kind of thing. It's obviously you who didn't consider the whole situation."
"How can I understand why there are still people holding on to that thing..."
Xingqiu felt a little helpless. This kind of gameplay that specifically deals with one's mentality really does lower one's blood pressure.
"Oh, if you lack training in this area, I can recommend you to go to the table next to you for some practice."
Gu Sanqiu pursed his lips. At the other table, Beidou, Ningguang, Keqing and Zhongli frowned slightly. Some were drinking, some were drinking tea. Anyway, they didn't look like here for a party.
"What are you guys over there doing?"
Xin Yan was a little confused, but anyone with a normal mind could see that the atmosphere over there was like a fight was about to break out, which was completely different from the joyful mahjong game they were playing here.
"Oh, they're playing the latest version of Liyue Millennium."
Gu Sanqiu shrugged: "In order to make it easier for them to play like this, I also temporarily made a bigger table. What you are seeing now should be the critical period of the war between the four countries."
"A war between four nations?"
"Well, it can't be summed up like that. All kinds of intrigues, such as making friends with distant countries, attacking nearby countries, economic sanctions, real fighting, fake fighting, etc., can be used. So the atmosphere is quite serious."
Gu Sanqiu had no choice as the people sitting at that table all had distinguished identities.
Zhongli, Morax’s vacation state, or this is his true self (crossed out).
Sister, Keqing, Tianquan Star and Yuheng Star.
Beidou, the captain of the Southern Cross Fleet, is the top two in command of the Liyue Navy and is known as the Uncrowned Dragon King.
These guys are all very good-looking, talented, and smart. When they play Liyue Millennium and the high-difficulty version of Four Kingdoms War together, they are no less likely to fight against the top professional players in various competitions.
Gu Sanqiu just hoped that these guys wouldn’t go without a meal for a whole day.
"It's time to eat. Hey! Don't eat the rice crust!"
“Hehe~”
