Genshin Impact: I, the Prince of Winter, rule over the world

[Rich Man] Pantalone recalled what Her Majesty the Queen specifically told everyone when she appointed the young man in front of her as the Prince of Winter:

"You must not violate the prince's will."

This was Her Majesty the Queen's personal request to these executive officers, or it was the most severe warning.

At first, they thought it was Her Majesty the Queen supporting the prince, but later they found out that it was Her Majesty the Queen who did not want them to die...

"Your Highness, do you still remember the secret realm of Qingxupu that we discovered in Liyue two years ago? After unremitting efforts, we discovered an ancient cave in which the remains of a demon god were hidden. In addition to gold and In addition to the stone amber, the power of the rock element is also needed, and this demon corpse contains a large amount of the power of the rock element."

Su Yu nodded lightly: "It's a project that you and Dotore collaborated on in Liyue."

One morning two years ago, [Doctor] Dotore reported his work plan to Su Yu. He agreed to Pantalone's request for cooperation and prepared to go to Liyue to assist in researching an underground tomb suspected of being a demon.

Dotore needed a lot of materials and funds to create the evil eye, so cooperation with Pantalone was imperative. Su Yu approved his action plan at that time.

"Your Highness, during your mission to Inazuma, we successfully opened the door to the secret realm. It was confirmed that it is indeed the tomb of a rock elemental demon."

The expressions of the senior officials at the Liyue wine table changed instantly.

Especially Uncle Tianshu Xingtian who likes fishing. He took the lead in cooperating with Ye Lan in Qingxupu to investigate the actions of the Fools. However, in the end, in addition to catching a few of the Fools' soldiers and generals, and getting a clear understanding of Zhiyi's face, Nothing gained.

Uncle Tianshu Xing had to look at the head of the Kun family of Yaoguang Xing who was sitting aside.

The head of the Kun family is in charge of Qianyan Army and Liyue's arsenal Heiyan Factory. They also sent people to Qingxupu to investigate, but found nothing.

The head of the Kun family waved his hand, which meant that he didn't know what was going on.

The Fools discovered the body of the demon god in Qingxupu, but Liyue knew nothing about it. Everyone in Liyue Qixing felt very uncomfortable.

The heads of the eight departments under the General Affairs Department also shook their heads and sighed.

Tianquanxing Ningguang put down the wine bottle in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said: "We have a contract with the Fools. The treasures discovered in the wild secrets in Liyue must be reported to us, Liyue Seven Stars. Pantalone , you violated our agreement, I ask the fools to work with us to develop the demon corpse."

[Rich Man] Pantalone sneered and said: "Master Ningguang is still as domineering as ever. Let's not talk about whether you can find that secret realm without the technology of our fools. Just to open the mechanism and seal of the Demon God's Cemetery, We have poured a lot of wealth and resources into the Winter Kingdom, and no less than a hundred brothers have died for it. You want to share half of it at your request, do you really think that we fools are weak persimmons?"

Ning Guang said without any sign of weakness: "A soft persimmon? You really think highly of yourself, but you are nothing more than a rotten egg."

Pantalone's plan was an attempt to seize Liyue's coinage rights and shake Liyue's economic foundation. If it hadn't been for Prince Zhidong's questioning at this banquet, they Liyue Seven Stars would not have known that the Fools had threatened the coinage rights.

According to his plan, it is entirely possible to produce a large number of molas, which will cause huge harm once they are put on the market.

Ningguang always remembers the emperor's words in his heart: "All the money circulating in the mainland is my flesh and blood. In this way, I guarantee all the sweat, wisdom and future of mankind. This is my trust in all living beings, and I will live up to it." It has defiled my blood."

Once Pantalone's plan succeeds, Liyue Qixing will be guilty of serious dereliction of duty. In addition to losing his position as Qixing, he will also be severely punished by the emperor.

That's why Ning Guang was so angry and wanted to rush forward and kill [Rich Man] Pantalone.

Su Yu signaled both parties to stop arguing.

"Alright, Pantalone, Ningguang Drunkard doesn't care about the wine. What she cares about most is not the corpse of the demon god, but the fact that you want to replace the Golden House and imitate Mora. Do you want to hear my opinion?"

"Please teach me, Your Highness."

Su Yu gently uttered two words: "Clumsy."

[Rich Man] Pantalone quickly lowered his head, not even daring to take a breath.

His Royal Highness the Prince's comments on this plan undoubtedly indicate that this plan is unqualified.

Su Yu took out the ancient coin given by Ji Fang, and in an instant, it turned into a brand new mora like magic.

While Su Yu and Zhong Li were testing each other's strength in the tea room of Wanwenjishe, Su Yu understood some of the secrets of the rock element, so he injected a little bit of the rock element into this mora.

Judging from the appearance and smell, there is no difference between it and a real Mora, or in other words, it is a real Mora.

"Why do you need the devil's corpse to imitate Mora? I can make it if you provide enough materials."

[Rich Man] Pantalone was extremely shocked.

The most difficult part of imitating Mora is not the material, but the fact that it must be infused with the power of the demon-level rock element, otherwise it will be easy to identify the authenticity.

However, in the entire Teyvat continent, there are very few rock elemental demon gods alive. The only known ones are the Rock King Emperor and Ruoduo Dragon King who were crowned as gods.

His Royal Highness, however, demonstrated the power of the Rock Demon God in an instant, which even Her Majesty the Queen could not do.

The shock in the hearts of Liyue Qixing was no less than that of Pantalone, and they were all stunned.

Su Yu put down his chopsticks and said: "If the plan to imitate Mora is successfully implemented, it will not only affect Liyue, but the economy of Zhidong Kingdom will also be affected."

"Also, forging Mora challenged Morax's bottom line. From what I know about him, he will spread your ashes as soon as possible. Don't think that he will be merciful if you are the Executive Officer of Solstice. At that time Even if Her Majesty the Queen comes, I can’t protect you.”

[Rich Man] Pantalone broke out in cold sweat.

When he designed this plan, he indeed ignored the attitude of Emperor Yanwang.

"Pantarone, you just said that your goal is to help Zhidong obtain the right to mint money and influence the economic lifeline of the six countries... But as far as I know, you left Liyue to join the Fools for other purposes. ."

Su Yu played with the ancient coin with his fingertips.

[Rich Man] Pantalone suddenly turned pale and hurriedly explained: "It's for money, for Mora! I enjoy the process of making money and am intoxicated by Mora's circulation in the world. Mora can give me a sense of security. Only Mora can give me a sense of security." Only by pulling can I make my life meaningful in this world..."

"You know what will happen if you lie in front of me."

Su Yu said coldly.

At the same time, an ice blade made of ice elements hung above [Rich Man] Pantalone's head, and the aura of death enveloped him.

Pantalone knelt on one knee and wailed: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I deserve to die, I lied!"

"I can't figure it out, Your Highness. My talent in the elemental field has been unparalleled since I was a child, but God's gaze has never come to me. Why can others obtain the Eye of God, but I can't?"

"Since then, I gave up the illusion of God's Eye and worked hard to become a businessman, thinking that by getting enough molas, I could control power. But in the end, I discovered that the power of wealth is always in the hands of the Rock King. Mortals, no matter how hard they try, can never surpass gods!”

Having said this, [Rich Man] Pantalone raised his head hard, his eyes filled with tears at this time.

According to the law of the solstice, he lied to His Royal Highness twice in a row, and he was destined to die today.

But before he died, he wanted to speak his mind.

"When I gave up my billions in property in Liyue and went to the Winter Kingdom at all costs to join the Fools, it was just to seize the right to mint money that originally belonged to us humans from the hands of the gods!"

"Your Highness, I hate Liyue, I hate Emperor Yanwang, and I hate this world!

Chapter 71 The Rich

After pouring out the secrets in his heart, [Rich Man] Pantalone, the unparalleled ninth executive of the Fools, knelt on the ground in embarrassment.

Who dares to imagine that just a minute ago, he was the terrifying man who dominated the Bank of the North and once brought economic war to six countries.

However, today, in front of another even more terrifying man, his emotions completely collapsed.

It was only then that Liyue's senior officials learned the truth. Their most powerful opponent in the economic field was actually born in Liyue. He chose to go into business because he did not obtain the Eye of God, and finally defected to the Winter Kingdom!

Pantalone closed her eyes and waited for the ice blade above her head to fall, accepting the punishment for lying.

He thought of his mother and many things in the past.

His family was in one of the poorest mountain villages in Liyue, and his parents were farmers. However, when he was born, he attracted a crowd of slime creatures.

The midwife said at the time that his elemental affinity was much higher than that of other children and that he was a genius. He would definitely get the Eye of God in the future and change the fate of poverty.

From then on, he became the focus of attention of the whole village.

However, after he was one, three, five, and ten years old, he still did not receive the eyes of the gods, while several other friends in the yard received the eyes of the gods one after another.

After school that day, he went home, hugged his mother and cried.

"Mom, why don't I have the eyes of God?"

His mother touched his head and comforted him: "Son, you are so good and so pious, the gods will definitely take pity on you."

When he was 16 years old, on his way home from school, he was bullied by a group of bad classmates who were smoking cigarettes.

Among those people was a tall scholar who always bullied other weaker classmates. Seeing that he was unwilling to pay protection money, he led his younger brothers to insult him.

"The neighbors all say you are a genius. You attracted slimes on the day you were born. I think that's bullshit! You are obviously a wretch without the eyes of God, haha."

"One day, I will have the Eyes of God!" He said stubbornly.

"Hey, you still dare to talk back. Come on, brothers, show him what a genius is!"

The tall scholar and several other boys lifted up their shirts, and the eyes of gods of various elements hung around their necks.

At that moment, his eyes widened.

He obviously works so hard, is so devout to the gods, and has such a passionate desire for the Eyes of God, but why did the gods give the Eyes of God to these uneducated scoundrels!

Under the provocation and stimulation of the other party, he had a conflict with this group of people.But wherever their opponents were, they were quickly knocked to the ground.

"Don't hit my brother!"

He would never forget the day when his brother lay on top of him to protect himself and was beaten and kicked by the group of people.

The classmates and teachers who came over drove away the bad guys. My brother was sent to the hospital, but the family had no money for treatment.

My parents went out to ask for a loan, and when they had enough money for medical expenses, my brother's condition was delayed, leaving him with a lifelong illness. Since then, he has been relying on medicine to sustain his life.

In order to reduce the burden on his family, his brother, who had excellent academic performance, gave up the scientific examination and studied medicine to treat his own illness.

If... I had the Eye of God, I could have prevented this tragedy.

Later, my father died of illness due to overwork, and my mother missed her father too much and was exhausted, and died not long after.

From then on, he and his brother depended on each other.

That year, he was just right.

"Brother, the gods have probably forgotten the two of us. We didn't get the eyes of gods until my mother passed away. Maybe I should change my path to realize my dream. No longer pray to the gods, no longer have expectations for the gods. Rely on your own wisdom and respond to those who look down on me.”

"Brother, no matter what you do, brother will support you. But remember what mother said to us, don't violate the contract, don't violate the law."

"Brother, don't worry, I'm just doing some small business, it won't be illegal."

From then on, there was a thin figure in Liyue's prosperous ports, streets, alleys, and secret ruins. He was selling the skill that his mother gave him before her death, making pancakes.

His business grew bigger and bigger, and he finally opened a restaurant and established a transport fleet at sea. A few years later, he became a famous rich man in Liyue and participated in the election of "Seven Stars of Liyue".

But one night, the vault where he kept Mora was robbed by bad guys, and all the wealth he had worked so hard to accumulate was lost.

And that bandit actually wore a God's Eye of rock element.

What had been his dream now seemed so disgusting and hateful.

Unable to pay workers' wages, the restaurants and transport fleet under his name declared bankruptcy, turning him back into a pauper almost overnight.

He finally realized that without the Eye of God, no matter how much money he made, it would be useless.

He sat paralyzed in the rain and cried bitterly, thinking back on his sad life.

Unable to obtain the recognition of the gods and the chance to obtain the eyes of the gods, he could only pursue worldly power crazily, that is, money and wealth.

However, even money, a secular power, is in the hands of gods as one of countless powers.

He is a people abandoned by the gods, a child abandoned by Liyue, this world is unfair to him!

A few days later, the robber was caught and his property was back.

But at this time, he already had a new goal, decisively abandoned these properties, and boarded a merchant ship bound for the solstice.

He heard that in that bitter and cold country, there was a great queen who was willing to accept all those who were hurt, betrayed, despaired, suffered, cursed, burdened with sins, and felt unfair to their fate.

And she selected the most capable person to serve as the executive officer of the Fools, and thus obtained a magical device that she had given the power of the gods, the evil eye——

That is his only hope of revenge against Liyue and Yanshen!

……

At this moment, [Rich Man] Pantalone finally thought of her mother.

He stroked the evil eye on his body, and a smile appeared on his lips that looked like death.

"Seize the right to mint money from the gods that originally belonged to us humans... It sounds like he is another guy who opposes divine rights."

Suddenly, Prince Winter in front of him spoke.

"But Morax and Her Majesty the Queen are both gods. Your hatred of gods naturally includes the Queen. No wonder you dare not tell the truth to me. You have concerns and know that I am the Queen's staunchest supporter."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

Pantalonella shrugged her head and responded weakly.

His Royal Highness was still as sharp as ever and figured out the reason for his unspeakable lies.

"Keep your head up and finally answer my question."

Su Yu stood up and asked: "So Pantalone, for you now, is the person you kneel before you listed as the object of revenge, or is he a prince who should be followed to the death?"
