Ningguang said that Liyue is a country of merchants, which is certainly good.

And precisely because it is a country of merchants, the laws used to bind both parties among merchants are particularly important.

Liyue's laws have been continuously improved by successive generations of Tianquan stars for thousands of years, and by Ningguang's generation they were quite perfect.

This has also given rise to a profession called legal consulting. They usually study the law to provide legal answers or help to businessmen.

Among all contemporary legal counselors, the most outstanding is a girl named Yan Fei.

Coincidentally, Ningzhe also knew this person.

When Ningzhe was traveling in Mondstadt, he happened to meet Yula, the knight of the West Wind Knights, and this elegant knight happened to have a good relationship with Yan Fei.

Through this relationship, Ningzhe also got to know Yan Fei, the master of law.

Later, Ningzhe returned to Liyue to open a bookstore. Because the bookstore's collection of books was too rich, Yanfei would occasionally come to the bookstore to buy books - she was also the only person in Liyue Port who could not speak up.

Ningzhe still can't forget that day that he just accidentally threw a wooden scale on the ground, but this half-fairy girl actually took action on the spot and told Ningzhe all night about the crime of damaging important public property under Article 114514 of the Liyue Civil Code.

.

As for why a wooden scale is an important official finance, according to Yan Fei, the "scale" is the foundation of all commercial transactions - a symbol of fairness. Damaging the symbol of fairness is tantamount to deliberately undermining commercial fairness.

Of course, Ningzhe rebutted strongly on the spot regardless of his own safety, but in the end he had to give in because he could not defeat Yan Fei.

...

Liyue Port, Chihuyan.

Looking at the pink-haired girl who was convincing others not far away, Ningzhe and Hutao were surprisingly hesitant.

As for why there are only two of them here...

They discussed it and then decided to divide their forces into two groups. Ning Yu and Xingqiu went to the south of the city to look for Chongyun first, while Ningzhe and Hu Tao went to look for Yan Fei together.

Ningzhe hesitated because his head felt swollen from memorizing the legal provisions last time, and Hutao because Yanfei often spoke for her, but she had never taken care of Yanfei's business.

But soon, under Hu Tao's encouragement (threat), Ningzhe plucked up the courage and walked up.

"Yanfei, long time no see..."

"Ah? Ningzhe? Don't panic, don't panic, I'll solve this matter first..."

After dealing with Ningzhe casually, Yan Fei focused her attention on the trembling middle-aged man in front of her.

Ningzhe didn't dare to speak at all after being interrupted, and stood there obediently.

"What about you? Do you know where you went wrong?"

Yan Fei looked at him sideways, her eyes full of oppression.

"me..."

The middle-aged man looked quite aggrieved, and his tone was a bit stuttering: "Didn't I just...add some glazed lily to your noodles..."

"Just added some glass lily?"

Yan Fei took a step forward and looked down at the man.

"There's still...a little more..."

The middle-aged man couldn't help but back away, "There's still a little Jueyun pepper..."

"Humph, you know what to do next."

Seeing the middle-aged man admit it, Yan Fei curled her lips in disdain.

"yes..."

The middle-aged man walked towards the General Affairs Department dejectedly, still staggering a little.

"..."

Ningzhe swallowed and forced a smile: "Are you... working?"

"Hey, just a little something."

Yan Fei looked back at Ning Zhe and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Does Yunhai Bookstore also have legal issues to consult? Commercial disputes or criminal proceedings?"

"Ahem...it's not like..." Ningzhe sneered twice and said tentatively: "If you and Ningguang were asked to argue about the details of the law, do you think you can outsmart her?"

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Yan Fei suddenly showed an unhappy look, "The law is strict. Who can guarantee that he can outsell anyone without knowing the specific situation?"

"That's true..."

"But, I'm not afraid of anyone. So what about the condensed light? The cornerstone of the law is fairness. As long as it's divination, the seven stars are useless."

Yan Fei snorted and spoke again: "So does Ning Guang have any dispute with your Yunhai Bookstore? You actually want to find me? It must be a business dispute... No, no, it may also be a criminal lawsuit..."

"Actually...this is what happened..."

Seeing Yan Fei's expression becoming more and more subtle, Ning Zhe felt his scalp numb and quickly explained...

...

"Hmm...well, I almost understand."

After listening to Ningzhe's words, Yan Fei said thoughtfully: "You received a commission from Ningguang to find out the stolen Chuixiang wood, and finally found that Ningguang was probably using you to attack the Fangshi family?"

"That's pretty much it."

"Wait a minute..."

Yan Fei immediately took out the "General Principles of Liyue Hundred Laws" that she had always carried with her, turned to a certain page accurately, and began to read it carefully.

Within a minute, she raised her head again and said: "This matter is ultimately theft, but depending on the nature, the results will be different."

"For example, this piece of fragrant wood was given to Ningguang personally by the neighboring country Mondstadt. From this point of view, this incident can be defined as a "personal theft incident."

From a personal standpoint, this matter will become a "state theft incident." The former can be settled simply, but the latter will pay a very serious price."

"Then if Ning Guang only grasps this point, wouldn't there be nothing to say?"

"No no no..."

Hearing this, Yan Fei immediately shook her head, raised the "General Principles of Liyue Hundred Laws" in her hand, and said: "It just so happens that Ningguang revised this regulation last year, [Liyue Seven Stars are not allowed to enjoy

All special preferential treatment except national honor, national security, etc.]."

"Um...?"

Ningzhe was a little confused.

"To put it simply, because the Alchemist Family is also part of maintaining Liyue's national security, Ningguang cannot kill them."

"Oh oh..."

Ningzhe understood now, and the matter was settled.

"But the question is, what does the alchemist have to do with you? Based on my understanding of Ningguang, if she wants to take action against a family, at least 70% of her considerations will be from the perspective of Qixing."

Yan Fei looked at Ning Zhe strangely, but after seeing Ning Zhe's serious expression, she didn't say anything more and just raised her voice: "For the sake of you being my friend, even if you have made an appointment this time, but

The cost of this consultation...will not be reduced by a milligram."

"The bill can be sent to Beiguo... Shengshengtang."

"The Hall of Rebirth?" Yan Fei was stunned for a moment, and then she came to her senses, "Oh~~Yes, why is Hutao standing there motionless? It turns out you two are together~"

At a glance, Hu Taoguo was standing there very pretty, uncharacteristically well-behaved.

"..."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... let's go, let's go!"

Yan Fei teased Ning Zhe, and then waved her hands carelessly: "According to what you said, Ning Yu and the others should have found Chong Yun, and we have to go there quickly."

Ningzhe was startled.
