Chapter 888: Emperor's Calligraphy
"Ha ha ha ha."
Ningguang smiled and put her hand on Gu Sanqiu's shoulder: "I didn't expect the emperor to have such a side. It really broadens my horizons."
Gu Sanqiu said shamelessly: "Then sister, can you help me reimburse some of the money?"
"Don't give me that. You are so rich and powerful, but you want to steal money from us common people? You have no dignity left."
Ningguang picked through the treasure house and said, "Although this is interesting news, since it is a personal gift from me, I can't use something like "all expenses covered" or else I'll steal the birthday boy's limelight."
Gu Sanqiu nodded silently. Later, he heard from Keqing that when they were fighting against the multi-headed rat snakes, his elder sister almost wanted to use Tiandong Wange to ask Osel to relive the past.
In the end, it was Dad who asked Xiao Hei to mention it on his own behalf, and only then did my sister give up the idea of abandoning the Qun Yu Pavilion to grow mushrooms.
Maybe it was from that time that my sister began to suspect that the Emperor was not really dead.
As for the other protagonist of the Yunlaihai Battle, from a certain perspective it is also for his own good.
After all, Osel certainly doesn't want to relive the past of being attacked by Tianxing and Rock Lance.
"And at least on the surface, Mr. Zhongli and I don't have much interaction, so it's better not to give him the gift of unlimited vouchers. At least I have to find a reason at another time."
Ningguang thought for a moment and said, "Since he is one of the few scholars in Liyue Harbor, and if he were to walk around like that, Mr. Zhongli should not be short of gifts of calligraphy and paintings."
"Well, just pick a few gifts that comply with the rules and show your thoughtfulness."
Ningguang patted Gu Sanqiu: "After all, there is a gift from my brother."
Gu Sanqiu was stunned: "Wait a minute, why can't we give out lifetime sponsorship vouchers? By then, there will definitely be only our group at the birthday party, so there's nothing we can't give out."
Apart from Brother Xiao, who might choose to earn money to support his retirement after seeing this voucher, is there anyone else who would react?
"Be more polite when talking about topics related to that person. What is a sponsorship voucher?"
Ningguang gently pulled Gu Sanqiu's ear and said, "You still lack some experience in the mortal world these days."
"With Mr. Zhongli's current status as a 'mortal', he will definitely have to deal with people. There will definitely be many people who want to flatter him and borrow his knowledge."
"Not to mention that you and Mr. Zhongli have never avoided anyone in your interactions. How can a birthday banquet be simple? At most, you can gather with people you know in advance and then treat the big banquet later as a social need."
Ningguang took out some treasures that could be called rare treasures in the world.
"You can go down later. Mr. Zhongli is of noble status, so it's better for you to find someone to do the minor things for him."
Gu Sanqiu: ...
Well, now even my elder sister has treated me as a tool, which makes me feel inexplicably sad.
As expected, everything is empty in front of the four big characters "Emperor Rock King". Even the beef offal chef who claims to be completely disrespectful to God would buy some dolls.
Those who understand will understand.
"well--"
In the afternoon, everything happened just as Ningguang had expected. A wealthy man had already booked the venue a month in advance. Today, the Liuli Pavilion would not receive any individual guests. Everyone from top to bottom would serve Mr. Zhongli.
The reason was simply because Zhongli gave the local tyrant some advice, which made his business career much smoother from then on. On the one hand, he wanted to repay the favor, and on the other hand, he understood that such precious talents must be won over as soon as possible.
It's no big deal if there's no affection, and the same goes for a deep friendship.
Even today's private booking had been discussed in advance, otherwise there would be suspicion of coercion, and the old foxes in the business circle would not make such a low-level mistake.
Then a certain biological son, but actually a rebellious son, was gloriously unemployed and is now eating candy and watching the fun with a group of people.
Gu Sanqiu originally wanted to pull a group of people from the Xingjia and Shijin Society to take charge, but after seeing this situation, he decisively gave up.
Not to mention him, all the people in the Wangsheng Hall have been arranged properly, and even a huge amount of sponsorship funds have flowed into the account of the Wangsheng Hall. A certain girl is now walking with her head held high.
Gu Sanqiu still underestimated Liyue's development in the past two years. Apart from anything else, the rich really have too much money to burn.
He even wanted to ask the people from the secret library to go over and get some sponsorship.
These wealthy people are quite good at pleasing others. They know that Mr. Zhongli usually goes everywhere, from high-end teahouses to food stalls and tea stalls. They naturally understand that they cannot make any class divisions, otherwise their efforts will be wasted.
The tycoon who booked the entire venue waved his hand again and gave all the employees of Liuliting an extra bonus of twenty times their salary today, and held a grand banquet!
Regardless of one's status, as long as someone comes to give a gift or even say a word of blessing, they can sit down to eat and it is not a problem to pack up the whole table and take it home.
With the rich leading the way, there is naturally no such thing as "I sit at the table with the kids".
You can't waste money, but you can't over-extravagant either. The rich man directly said that he spent money to accumulate blessings and good luck for Mr. Zhongli, and he didn't care about anything else.
Even Xinyuexuan, who usually didn't deal with him, opened their front door wide and said frankly that they were also here to celebrate Mr. Zhongli's birthday.
"Tsk, after seeing this scene I realized, Dad, you are really awesome."
Gu Sanqiu and Zhongli stood aside: "Although you are no longer in the martial arts world, your legend is still there."
Wandering around in this world, the connections you have accumulated on a daily basis are nothing to be underestimated.
If it weren't for the inappropriate identities, when Osel led many sea monsters to attack, Zhongli stood up and called for action, most people would definitely be willing to follow him to fight against the monsters and protect their home.
"Look at what others do, and then think about what you, the rebellious son, have done."
Gu Sanqiu's face darkened.
Zhongli chuckled and said, "Okay, I won't talk to you for now. Everyone is here to wish me well, so I must respond seriously."
As the protagonist of the birthday banquet, Zhongli stood outside the door and greeted the guests very seriously, adding words of gratitude for their blessings, and then presented the return gifts and blessing letters with both hands.
The calligraphy is thick yet light, and one glance at it gives you a refreshing feeling, after all, these are the words written by the "former ruler" himself.
The food and other things can only be prepared slowly, even if the chef is exhausted he can't cook that fast.
Gu Sanqiu nodded silently .
Very good, from today on, at least in the eyes of those who know the subject, the calligraphy of Emperor Rock King is absolutely cheap.
A small clue can reveal a big thing; a leopard can be seen through a tube.
This is the core element that has enabled Liyue to develop to this day.
Some people may think that this is just a show. With the power of the devil, there will be no problem writing for a month without sleep.
But other beings may not even have the thought of doing so.
At least from the sentence "I won't talk to you first", it can be seen that Dad is really responding to everyone's blessings seriously.
Suddenly I felt that I really had nothing to do here.
The elder sister was still thinking about the gifts she would give, but Gu Sanqiu was thinking about picking out two items from the elder sister's gift list.
Well, it's also possible to go to Mond and kidnap an uncle.
But the situation today was already so big. If Wendy hadn't come uninvited, Gu Sanqiu would have twisted his head off and given it to the Abyss Cult.
Zhongli kept responding and sending blessings, and Gu Sanqiu just stood obediently in the back, watching the scene quietly.
In stealth mode, of course.
Oh, right.
Gu Sanqiu clapped his hands and waited until the time was almost right before sending a message to Zhongli.
"Dad, I will keep my gift for now. When I go to Inazuma, I will find you a daughter-in-law. Your grandchildren will be your gifts then."
"Also, I'll leave the important matter of taking care of the baby to you."
Zhongli was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath.
He already knew what Nizi and Nashida had said, and he also understood that Gu Sanqiu didn't have that idea now.
So, what big thing does this kid want to do by going to Inazuma?
Well, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. The dull, old-fashioned and even somewhat decadent Inazuma may really need someone like Gu Sanqiu to liven up the family.
I hope Inazuma can bear it.
"It would be best if they were twins. I want both grandchildren and you are making some progress in your career. It's time to consider starting a family."
This actually made Gu Sanqiu feel awkward. When had his father ever talked back in this way? Didn't he seem to have any nerve at all?
Well, there's nothing wrong with being younger in mind.
