Chapter 45: A Trip to the Northland Bank
After thinking about it for a whole night, Gu Sanqiu decided not to go and seek death. It was really unrealistic to discuss with the Pure Water Elf whether he could get some clean water.
Not to mention that the ancestor of the Gu family did such a shameless thing , just the thought of entering the Pure Water Secret Realm and confronting the other party head-on made Gu Sanqiu feel that this matter was not very reliable.
It was no joke that the Pure Water Elf was called the "Dad of Travelers" by many people back then. Even now, we can see how powerful it is from scattered records.
In short, it is definitely not cost-effective to force it, and it is even more impossible to outsmart the opponent. As soon as you enter the secret realm, the opponent will be aware of it, and there is no room for outsmarting him at all.
As for getting it from the market, it is even more impossible. Clean water is basically not available on the market nowadays. If some stubborn sect members or adventurers succeed, they will basically keep it for themselves.
"It seems that if I want to speed up the cultivation of these things, whether I like it or not, I will have to collide with them head-on sooner or later?"
Gu Sanqiu had a headache. If his ancestors had not done such a thing, it would not be a problem for him to pack up his equipment and fill a jar.
But he didn't dare to bet whether the Pure Water Elf would show any "enemies meeting each other with jealousy" behavior when seeing him.
“Hanging a commission… Never mind. There are also underworld people in the Adventurer’s Association. It’s obviously not wise to ask them to help me.”
"etc."
Gu Sanqiu thought thoughtfully: "It seems that I have an obvious and formal ally?"
Northland Bank!
"As for the Fatui, apart from the fact that they are unfamiliar with the place, at least their strength is much better than that of the Adventurer's Guild."
"Besides, Yaya also has water attribute. Maybe he can use the power of pure water to improve his strength?"
Gu Sanqiu clapped his hands. Doesn’t this logic make sense?
Decided!
Heading to Northland Bank tomorrow!
Early in the morning, it was still the so-called "senior account manager" Amir who came to receive Gu Sanqiu, but this time there was no formal courtesy, and the two of them felt a lot more relaxed.
"Gu Xiangjun, I thought you would choose to take a break during this period of time. After all, you have been busy for a long time recently."
"Oh? You guys at Northland Bank know some new information."
Amir smiled and said, "Don't look at us like this. We are actually very knowledgeable about financial planning. Now many Liyue people have chosen our Northland Bank."
"Among them, there are some family members of the Qianyan Army. Gu Xiangjun's reputation for being smart and generous has spread within a small circle."
"I've already said it's a small-scale case, so even if it spreads , it won't mean anything."
Gu Sanqiu shook his head: "Since you also know about the child trafficking incident some time ago, do you know any news?"
"We have learned very little information. When the authorities began to suspect us, the executive officer actually sent a vanguard team out to investigate, but they found nothing."
Amir shook his head. "If we can find out the information, or even the so-called mastermind, whether we use it to make a deal with you or give it directly to the Seven Stars in exchange for their trust, it will be much better than keeping it for ourselves."
"Our executive officer is well-read and has only been able to conclude that their power seems to come from some evil demon remnants, but he can't find the source."
"Well, it seems to be a problem."
"I came here this time to ask if you, the Northland Bank, have any stocks of purified water. I will buy them at a high price."
Gu Sanqiu said: "Don't tell me you don't even know about this specialty in the Pure Water Secret Realm."
"Ah, this, we have it in stock at Northland Bank, and quite a bit."
Amir's eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled. "But what price is Gu Xiangjun prepared to pay in exchange for clean water from us?"
"I'll pay a deposit of three million Mora in silver notes guaranteed by Liyue Bank. I'll take as much purified water as you have."
Amir was surprised, and then his eyes were filled with eagerness: "Well, I wonder if Xiangjun needs a reasonable, reliable, safe financial plan with a return rate of about 15%?"
"Thank you. I don't buy villas or speculate on real estate. It's already 15% and you're still telling me it's safe?"
Gu Sanqiu rolled his eyes and said, "You are trying to achieve good results at the end of the year, right? There is no need for that. Even if the senior executives of your Zhidong Nation were here, they would only admit that your work in Liyue is quite excellent."
"Sorry, sorry, I was abrupt."
Amir laughed: "However, I believe Xiangjun should also know the market price of this kind of natural treasures. Mora is generally not used as an equivalent."
"If someone wants to exchange natural treasures for Mora, I guess a large group of people will take as much as they can."
"Then name your price."
Gu Sanqiu didn't care. Anyway, he brought most of his belongings from the Golden Finger today . Whether it was money or treasures, he was confident in the transaction.
Of course, the premise is that Amir doesn't say something like "Introduce me a gentle and beautiful Liyue girl", otherwise he will consider finding Yaya or the lady to report someone who is not working seriously.
Uh, I wonder if this lady, a social animal who runs around doing field work, is in Liyue now.
"Haha, I didn't expect that I would meet the famous incense burner as soon as I came back. I have heard of him for a long time."
A young, hearty laugh came along with a figure, a figure that Gu Sanqiu was extremely familiar with.
Let me introduce to you, this is the second damage panel calculator, his second and third lives are imaginary, he is the weekly BOSS known as the "Little Frozen Tree".
Executor, Prince Tartaglia!
"This, Mr. Executive."
Amir quickly stood up and saluted. "We are discussing the water purification deal. Please come and inspect it in person, Mr. Executive."
"Hahaha, inspections like this should be done by one's own actions. There's no difference between doing it in person and not doing it in person."
Tartaglia's eyes were fixed on Gu Sanqiu, and Gu Sanqiu stared back at him without fear.
Although Psyduck is a favorite of the official team as he has returned many times and has a lot of “exclusive weapons”, this is Liyue. If Gu Sanqiu is afraid of him, he will have no chance of survival.
"Hahaha, according to legend, this generation of incense burners are physically weak, and even their temperaments and vision are a bit cowardly. It seems that these rumors are obviously untrue."
Tartaglia sat opposite Gu Sanqiu and personally poured him a cup of tea.
"Besides, how could someone who can look into my eyes be a coward, right?"
Gu Sanqiu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Indeed, I think what you said makes sense."
This is a provocation, absolutely a provocation!
I wonder if this guy will feel sorry for the cost of the fight at Northland Bank and who to ask for reimbursement?
It was a meaningless remark, but Tartaglia laughed again.
"Yeah, I always think what I said makes sense. In my distant hometown, my lovely sister said that whatever a handsome guy like me says is right."
Tartaglia winked at Gu Sanqiu: "I think you are also a handsome guy, Gu Xiangjun, so the way you act should be correct, right?"
Gu Sanqiu's face stiffened for a moment.
(°ー°〃)
Wait, why is Dada Duck like this?
Where is the Duckling who he imagined to be warm and sociable on the outside, but cold and arrogant on the inside, thinking that most people are not like him? !
