Ningguang's impression of the Beidou captain is quite deep, but this deepness is not entirely a good aspect.

She and Beidou have also dealt with each other on various occasions and positions, not only the position of being Seven Stars, but also private occasions among friends.

In terms of professional level, Beidou is undoubtedly a very good armed shipping captain. If he is so good that he can go directly to the Maritime Department as the general manager, there will be no problem, but in terms of morality...

Beidou has done a lot of things like opportunism and armed private plunder.

Although the Dragon King of the Sea is very good at exchanging benefits and is also proficient in the rules of the game on Yujingtai, he has the loyalty and enthusiasm that merchants do not have, so Ningguang is also willing to deal with each other.

Moreover, the Death Omen ship of the Southern Cross Fleet was seriously damaged in the battle against the vortex demon god Oser, and the cost of repairing the keel of the ship was raised by Beidou himself, and he did not ask her for half a cent.

There are also gems and antiques that Beidou often sends that claim to be fines, but are actually bribes in disguise.

Ningguang raised the inlaid jade pipe that had been replaced with new tobacco, took a puff of the cigarette as if to relieve fatigue, and looked through the documents with his head lowered pretendingly, ignoring Beidou and Baiwen who entered the door.

"Long time no see, Ningguang."

"Hey, it looks like our Lord Tianquan is not in a good mood..."

Beidou's hearty and generous voice was entwined with the sea breeze and the smell of wine, and Ningguang suddenly looked up, only to find that the other party had walked around the wooden table to her side, raised his hand to grab the pipe from her mouth, and threw it to the side of the table.

"It's not good for your health."

Perhaps it was because he drank some wine before coming to Yiyan Temple, Beidou's eyes were not as sharp as usual, he was wearing a cloak to shelter from the rain, with a jade hairpin inserted obliquely behind his head, and the Qingming tassels by his ears swayed with the movement, embroidered with gold. Under the crimson eyepatch is a familiar smile.

The Sea Dragon King's mood didn't seem to be affected by the damage to the Death Sign.

"I'm naturally not as free and bold as Captain Beidou. A small businessman like me has to worry about it every day in order to make a living."

The pipe was taken away, and Ningguang was not angry, and smiled and exhaled the last smoke from his mouth.

The smoke ring rose higher and higher like bubbles, blocking the two of them, leaving only Beidou's vague and helpless voice.

"You woman..."

No matter what she was talking or doing, Ning Guang was unwilling to suffer a little bit of loss, just now she managed to speak quickly, and she suddenly felt that the troubles in her heart disappeared with the smoke ring being exhaled.

Ning Guang picked up the teacup, and Bai Wen, who was waiting by the side, immediately understood Lord Tian Quan's intentions, and bowed out of the side hall, leaving the space in the hall for the two of them.

"Master Beidou came here late at night, why?"

Ningguang Dai frowned slightly, and the smell of alcohol on Beidou's body hit her nostrils like surging waves.

"Hmph, I just wanted to see you."

The red pupils like Big Dipper's blood-dough dendrobium just stared at Ningguang, and the unexpected and simple answer made Lord Tianquan slightly shake the hand holding the teacup, a little tea dripped onto the paper, and the blurred ink words faithfully responded Her mood at the moment.

But Ningguang still maintained her demeanor, put down the teacup, straightened her back a little, and turned her gaze back to the document in her hand.

"It's really thanks to Captain Beidou's love and hard work, just to come here to see me..."

The walls and floors in the Yiyan Hall are engraved with magic circles, with constant temperature and humidity, making it comfortable and pleasant. This may be the reason why some aristocratic merchants always like to come here for meetings.

Beidou looked up at the well-tailored golden cheongsam on Ningguang's body, raised his eyebrows with a complicated expression, took off the raindrop-stained cloak, put it on the back of the chair opposite Ningguang's table, and complained casually.

"Hmph... That's not right. Now you are in a good mood. When I came here, it took half an hour just to be questioned and inspected by the sentry at the gate of Yiyan Hall."

"We people come and go in the wind and rain, where can the nobles sitting in Yujing Terrace be safe and comfortable."

Listening to Beidou's words, Ningguang shook her head slightly, her voice gradually turned hard, and finally she put down the paper in her hand, and looked up at the heroic captain.

"Hehe... It's true that it's comfortable, but it's not necessarily safe."

"In extraordinary times, there are quite a few people who want to use extraordinary means. I have mobilized three times as many Qianyan Army as guards to guard the Yiyan Palace. No matter how intriguing and deceitful in the business field, Seven Stars must ensure that the heads of each family walk out of this jade palace without incident. Jingtai..."

"At least you can't die in the Yiyan Palace."

Ningguang didn't seem to intend to explain anything more, with a smile on his mouth, lightly holding the porcelain cup, and looking at the grinning Beidou with scrutiny.

"People are safe and sound, but it's hard to say about property."

Beidou was also not to be outdone, and stared at Ningguang with folded arms.

"The pressure to share the loot with Lord Tianquan is really not small."

"On the way here, I saw the faces of many important people in Yujingtai, as if someone died at home."

Hearing Beidou's straightforward description, Ningguang, who had always used elegant words, suddenly froze.

Before she even had time to put down the teacup in her hand, under the dense heat, the stunning face with a heavy and exhausted look seemed a little blurred.

But this look of helplessness was only shown for a moment, and the next moment, the expression on her face suddenly became unstoppable, and she let out a "puchi" laugh like the clouds blooming to see the moon, and then she couldn't hold back, shrugging her shoulders Laughed for a long time.

Beidou didn't know why she laughed so hard that his heart got hairy, and he was a little annoyed, but he resisted not to attack.

"...Sorry, I lost my temper."

After a long time, Ning Guang put the teacup on the table, the gloom between her brows was much more relaxed than before.

"Maybe you should listen to their speeches at the previous meetings and understand why these moths are so guilty."

"Don't mention such disappointing things, let Captain Beidou come to see me in person, it must be a rather difficult problem?"

"Did the Southern Cross fleet abduct someone's daughter to become a sailor, or is it a fugitive who harbored Dao's wife?"

Ningguang adjusted her sitting posture, stroked her hair, and asked casually.

Hearing Tianquanxing's question, Beidou coughed twice, with a helpless expression on his face, and took out a necklace with a strong Fontaine style from his cloak pocket, and the pendant was a few amber amber necklaces , and handed it to Ning Guang's desk.

"Ahem... In your mind, is this my image?"

When it came to business, Beidou's face became a little serious, and then he hesitated a bit, hesitatingly stated the real purpose of visiting Ningguang in the middle of the night.

"The elemental crossbow machine you used to deal with Orser, what is it called... the final machine."

"...Can you spare a few for the Southern Cross fleet?"

As we all know, the Southern Cross Fleet has a good personal relationship with the director of the wharf shipyard, and the repair work of the main ship Death Star is much faster than expected. At this moment, Beidou is still thinking about the new weapon used by Concentrating Light to deal with the Whirlpool Demon God.

The root of the crossbow on the Death Star is connected to the branch of the keel, which not only strengthens the power of the crossbow, but also makes it easier for sailors to steer. However, the disadvantage is that the replacement of weapons is relatively slow, and every time new materials are used, the entire ship needs to be repaired. replace.

After facing Osser, the keel of the main ship of the Death Star was seriously damaged, but it was able to take this opportunity to replace the weapons and equipment on board, and replace the ordinary ship crossbow with a powerful new type of final machine.

It's just that Ningguang probably doesn't have many weapons like this. I don't know if she would like to give some to the Southern Cross fleet.

"Oh, I see……"

"With just one necklace, Captain Beidou wants to exchange for several strategic weapons of Liyue Port?"

With a smile on her face, Ning Guang picked up the Fontaine necklace on the table, and after carefully appreciating it, her eyes shone with the shrewd eyes unique to businessmen.

If it weren't for the delay in the repair work of the Death Star, Beidou didn't want to run into it when Ningguang was short of money.

"Tell me, what do you want besides the Southern Cross Fleet and the Death Omen?"

The Dragon King Beidou, who is all-powerful on the sea, reluctantly turned his head, waiting for Ningguang to propose a condition.
