Chapter 73 "Ceremony of Inviting the Immortals" (Part 1)
After the negotiation with Shang Hua, Mo Yu walked back to his house slowly.
There was only one thing he had to do now - wait.
Wait until Xing Qiu and Xu Shu finished purchasing all the amber, wait until Ye Lan replied, wait until... the "Seven Stars Inviting Immortal Ceremony" began.
And Mo Yu waited until that evening.
Because Uncle Xu had just returned to the Mo family mansion in the evening, he looked at Mo Yu who was sitting in the front hall drinking tea calmly and said: "Young Master, Young Master Xingqiu also started to buy amber. Now... 80% of the amber in Liyue Port has been bought by me and the "Feiyun Chamber of Commerce" and is placed in the warehouse."
Mo Yu handed the freshly brewed tea to Uncle Xu, asked him to sit down, and said: "Uncle Xu... You have worked hard today. I want to ask... What was the reaction of those merchants when they heard me say to buy amber today?"
Uncle Xu took a sip of tea, and then smiled and said: "They were reluctant to sell it to me at first, saying... someone had reserved it. I thought that since you had given the message to the second young master, it meant that you must get these ambers, so I paid a high price to buy them all."
"Of course, a high price alone is not enough. More importantly, it is the "amber crafts" you mentioned. Your idea plus the Mora that is slightly higher than the market price, they are naturally willing to sell it."
"But... Excuse me for being so nosy, are you planning to set off?" Uncle Xu asked with some concern.
As the saying goes, a mother worries about her son even when he is thousands of miles away. He witnessed the changes in Yu Ning'er more than a year after Mo Yu left. Whether it is her spirit or her appearance... she is not as good as before. It was only recently that Mo Yu came back that she got a little better.
Mo Yu saw the worry in Uncle Xu's eyes. He waved his hand slightly and said, "Uncle Xu, don't worry. I won't leave for the time being. Even if the amber needs to be processed... it will take some time. At least we have to wait until the end of this year's Moon Festival before we can set off."
Hearing what Mo Yu said, Uncle Xu nodded with relief, and then continued, "Do you want to find a craftsman for this batch of amber...?"
Mo Yu shook his head and continued, "No need. This batch of amber is not only for processing and producing samples, but also for other uses~"
After saying this, Mo Yu yawned at the right time, and then said, "Uncle Xu, I am relieved that you are back. I will go to rest first. I have to arrive early for the "Invitation to the Immortal Ceremony" tomorrow."
"Okay, good night, young master."
No words all night.
At dawn the next day, Moyu had already gotten up, dressed neatly, and slowly walked towards the "Yujing Terrace". On the way, he saw a girl with a purple cat head.
She seemed to have seen Moyu as well, and waved at him. Just when she wanted to call his name, she closed her mouth and walked towards him instead.
Mo Yu was confused by her hesitant behavior, so he asked: "Miss Keqing, what are you doing...?"
"Ah...I just wanted to call your name symbolically, but it seems too early now and will disturb everyone's rest, so I didn't say it."
Mo Yu nodded in understanding. This style of doing things is indeed Keqing's style. Then he gently asked: "Miss Keqing, when do you plan to return to the original land to reclaim the wasteland?"
Keqing blinked, sighed slightly and said: "Hey...wait until the "Faints" calm down a little...Didn't Wang Tao and Mu Xuanji say last time that this group of people are always scattered outside Liyue Harbor and in Liyue, and I always feel that they have bad intentions."
Hearing this, Mo Yu nodded slightly and stopped talking, because...it seems that there is really nothing to talk about between them except this.
The two walked silently on the street. The atmosphere around them was a little...heavy for a while, but Mo Yu didn't seem to feel it. He was still thinking about what to say after seeing Ying today.
It seemed that Keqing could not bear this kind of heavy burden. She gently asked: "That... Moyu, what do you think of me?"
"Um... ah? Why do you ask this suddenly?"
"Just... I want to see what my image is like in the eyes of my peers."
Moyu was silent for a moment, then raised his head, his black eyes looked at the girl in front of him, and then said seriously: "You... want to hear the truth?"
"Um..."
Moyu sighed slightly, and then said to Keqing: "You should have a good rest. You know better than anyone that land engineering can't be done in one day, and it can't be solved in one day to persuade those residents."
Hearing Moyu's words, Keqing blinked in surprise, and then asked uncertainly: "Just... that's it?"
"That's it, there is no other opinion." Moyu answered inexplicably.
After hearing Moyu's reply, Keqing was slightly relieved, and then said: "I knew... you don't look like someone who wants to fall in love at this age."
"What do you mean?"
Keqing blinked again, and then said: "Didn't my aunt tell you? She told my mother... you seem to be interested in me..."
Hearing this, Moyu almost vomited blood. He explained the whole story to Keqing for the rest of the journey, and finally said under the "Yujingtai" as if to end the topic: "My mother is just... a little anxious, don't mind..."
"Well... I know..."
When Moyu and Keqing walked onto the "Yujing Terrace", they realized that... except for the two of them, the other seven stars seemed to have arrived, but... one person had not arrived yet.
That was Ganyu.
Moyu was a little confused... Although he and Keqing arrived a little late, they were still within the agreed time, so why... Ganyu hadn't arrived yet? Logically, she was the first to arrive every time, right?
In this way, the seven people present waited until the end of the Mao hour but still didn't see Ganyu. Just when they were about to disperse to do the preparations... Ganyu ran out from under the "Yujing Terrace" panting.
Although everyone was surprised, they didn't say much. After all... Ganyu could be regarded as the busiest person in Liyue, whether it was working hours... or the amount of work.
Ganyu looked at everyone and looked at her, then dispersed to prepare for the part she was responsible for, blushing slightly, like "How should I adjust the clothes I wear when attending the ceremony this year compared to last year? I was hesitant for two hours because of this" This kind of reason was absolutely impossible for her to say.
However... seeing that Qixing had no complaints about her, she quickly got into work mode.
Under the coordination of Ganyu and Ningguang, everyone quickly completed the preparations for the "Ceremony of Inviting the Immortals", and Ningguang stood quietly in the middle, patiently waiting for the "auspicious time"
At about noon, when the crowd around had almost gathered, Ningguang's phoenix eyes condensed slightly, and she said loudly:
"The auspicious time has arrived."
