Yunhai Bookstore.

After sending Yun Ning away, a large number of people who had gathered around Yunhai Bookstore dispersed one after another.

Now it seems that the huge Yunhai Bookstore seems a bit deserted except for some regular customers in the past.

At this time, Ningzhe was sitting alone in the reception room, looking at the chessboard on the wooden table, but his thoughts were far away.

Just now, Ningzhe had a sudden idea and decided to use [Goddess Piguan] as an excuse to visit Shen He, the disciple of Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng, and cleverly connected with him.

Ningzhe was once impressed by his ingenuity, but when he thought about it, he found that there were many flaws in it.

Originally, Shen He should have returned to Liyue Port under the instruction of Lord Liuyun Jiefeng, trying to return to mortal life. But now that the time has not come, God knows whether Shen He will ignore him.

Moreover... Kong hasn't arrived yet, and Shen He should be in a state of being untainted by the mundane world and unmoved by thoughts...

Even if I take Yun Jin with me to worship the mountain, it's hard to say whether Shen He, a straight person, will give him this face.

Not to mention... this person is still Guchen Jiesha's destiny. If she doesn't like it, she will just shoot him.

So... after careful consideration, Ningzhe decided to start from another place.

That place can be said to be the direct cause of Osel breaking through the seal in the future - Northland Bank.

"Um......"

Thinking of this, Ningzhe still had a headache.

His memory of Teyvat was inherently incomplete, and sometimes particularly unclear.

As early as when he was traveling to the six countries, Ningzhe got acquainted with a winter warrior named Ajax.

Although this guy was also a member of the Fools at that time, Ningzhe at the time could not have imagined that the martial idiot was actually the future executive [Master] Dadalia.

If he had known that person was Dadalia, Ningzhe would have...

Ahem...Of course, it is impossible for Ningzhe, a scholar with no strength to restrain himself, to take action.

However, it is definitely possible with some operation...

"I don't know if he still remembers this friendship..."

Ningzhe knocked on the table with one hand and held his chin with the other hand, thinking carefully.

He has been back to Liyue for so long, and he has already made a name for himself. Since Dadalia is not here, he is either pretending not to know him, or he is not in Liyue...

According to Ningzhe's judgment, the latter is more likely.

Snapped!

Suddenly, the door to the reception room was opened.

A laborer hurriedly ran in. When he saw Ningzhe, he breathed a long sigh of relief: "Lao Ning? Fortunately, you are here!"

"What's the matter, so anxious?"

Ningzhe handed the worker a cup of tea and asked with some confusion.

"Thank you...Hey, I didn't come here to drink tea!"

The laborer subconsciously took it and even thanked him very politely. But soon, he reacted and hurriedly said: "Someone came suddenly from Beiguo Bank! Mr. Ning Yu was already at the door to greet him..."

"Northland Bank?"

Ningzhe was stunned for a moment.

I was thinking about it just now, why did it come suddenly?

"Yes, and their attitude is very weird! They kept inviting you and Mr. Ning Yu to a banquet at Beiguo Bank, which can be said to be very polite!"

polite?

Oh, this is not common.

"Is it possible that they have some plot against Yunhai Bookstore..."

Ningzhe spoke softly with some doubts.

Suddenly, as if he thought of something, Ningzhe's heart moved, and then he said, "Did they say who hosted the banquet?"

"Well...Mr. Ning Yu also asked, but they just said: You will know when you go."

The laborer touched his head and said, "Mr. Ning Yu asked me to come look for you after that."

"I see..."

Ningzhe suddenly realized.

It seems that his previous guess was right...

After thinking about the reason, Ningzhe stood up and put on a relaxed smile.

"Lao Ning?"

The migrant workers saw the smile on Ningzhe's face and were a little confused for a moment.

Ordinary people in Liyue would look disgusted when hearing the name of Beiguo Bank, and neutral people would also stay away from it.

That's what I heard, let alone the unsolicited invitation from Beiguo Bank.

God knows if it’s the Hongmen Banquet?

"No problem, it's just a party, what should I be afraid of?"

Ningzhe's expression remained unchanged, he straightened up his appearance and walked out.

"..."

The worker was silent for a while, then chased after him and asked quietly: "Do you want your brothers to be prepared? If they dare to attack you, we will take over this Northland Bank."

"Need not..."

Ningzhe smiled gently, kept walking, and said casually: "If that guy can use this kind of strategy, then I can only prove that I have seen the wrong person."

That guy?

The workers were startled, how confident could they be?

Soon, looking at Ningzhe's retreating back, he understood.

Hmm... Could it be that Ningzhe knows some high-ranking officials among the fools?

As he thought about it, the worker smiled happily.

...

At the door, two members of the Fools wearing blindfolds stood very honestly, not daring to move.

Ning Yu, on the other hand, stood opposite them with a calm expression.

"Come out? Then let's go there."

Seeing Ningzhe coming out, Ning Yu nodded slightly and spoke softly.

"okay."

Ningzhe agreed, then looked at the two members of the Fools with a smile and said, "May I ask why your organization suddenly invited me and Ning Yu?"

The two members of the Fools looked at each other, and then one of them said bravely: "You will know when Mr. Ning goes there, and it is not convenient for us to disclose more..."

"Yeah?"

Ningzhe made a noncommittal "hum" sound twice.

Seeing Ningzhe's appearance, the two members of the Fools felt their scalps go numb.

When Yunhai Bookstore was first opened, they did a lot of stumbling blocks behind closed doors... Now, now, their immediate superiors have called upon them to warmly entertain them, and also ask for "service with a smile"...

"Okay, lead the way."

After having enough fun, Ningzhe stopped when he felt good.

"Okay, okay, you two, please come with me..."

The two members of the Fools were relieved, put smiles on their faces, and took the initiative to walk ahead.

Ningzhe followed without hesitation, while Ning Yu just smiled and shook his head and followed.

Northland Bank...

...

Beiguo Bank is indeed the place where Fools have been operating in Liyue for many years. When it comes to facility layout and scene setting, it takes a lot of effort.

The majestic golden tone and elegant log furnishings give off an aura of wealth and wealth.

To be honest, this is Ningzhe's first time coming to Beiguo Bank in Liyue.

"...."

As soon as he walked in, Ningzhe couldn't hide the look of surprise on his face.

If it weren't for the small area, it would even be comparable to Ningguang's Qunyu Pavilion.

However... what attracts Ningzhe most in Beiguo Bank at this moment is not its scene setting, but the table of fragrant delicacies placed in the middle!
