I'm in Liyue, and I'm the only one in the chat group?

Saying that, Ning Guang also sighed slightly.

"The foolish doctors just made a big mess in Mond some time ago, and now the North Country Bank has suddenly applied to me to settle in Liyue, so I have to guard against it."

"It's just that the other party didn't show any flaws. At present, I can only send Yelan to watch Beiguo Bank in private."

"It seems that it can only be so."

For Beiguo Bank, Han Xiao couldn't come up with a good solution for a while.

After all, they submitted their application for residency in accordance with the formal diplomatic procedures. From the perspective of Liyue's law, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Even if you know that the other party may have problems, you can't refuse.

After much deliberation, Han Xiao told Ning Guang and Ke Qing that it was not a solution:

"How about Ningguang, Guilicheng and Liyue Port jointly launch Liyue's state-owned bank as soon as possible, and we can't stop Beiguo Bank from entering, but the bank must not fall into the hands of businessmen from other countries."

"You mean fighting in the ring?"

Ning Guang pondered for a while, quickly calculating the pros and cons in his mind.

Ke Qing still remained silent.

There's no way she's an old lady in civil engineering. Her main job is land construction, and she really doesn't have the energy to take care of diplomacy.

There are too many twists and turns in it for her.

"For now, that's the way to go."

After a long time, Ning Guang came back from her contemplation, and nodded in agreement with Han Xiao's suggestion.

It is true that such a major matter related to the country's finances as the bank cannot be controlled by other countries. She plans to preside over the bank's affairs by herself.

"Then leave it to you to deal with it. Guili City will plant food as soon as possible to help Liyue get rid of the problem of food imports."

Ningguang Hanxiao quite agrees with the bank matter, but the other party is the "chosen son" who has climbed from a small businessman to a seven-star all the way through commercial means.

Comparing business methods with this kind of hanging on the wall, Han Xiao thinks that his brain is not yet watts.

to winter.

While Ning Guang and Han Xiao were discussing how to deal with Beiguo Bank, there was also a conversation among the Fools.

"Pantalone, I heard that you suffered a little loss in Liyue."

"It's just that an idle pawn has been removed, Puccinera."

Wearing glasses and a man in a plush coat, the rich man Pantalone they called Han Xiao didn't care about the 'taunt' from his colleagues.

From his point of view, Zhiyi is indeed just an idle chess set after he sent someone to contact him.

It's just that he didn't expect that this pawn would be exposed so quickly, which made Pantalone's plan to interfere with Liyue Qixing's election fail.

Fortunately, he let Yusupov and Theofan evacuate ahead of time with their troops.

In terms of loss, there is not much.

"I hope that your actions will not affect the empress's affairs."

Facing Pantalone's indifferent expression, Rooster Pucciniera frowned and said something.

"Don't worry, Dadalia volunteered to take over the task of the queen, trust our colleague, he will handle it well."

"A battle-crazed mind, alas... let me help."

"But Pantalone, you should already know what happened to Liyue recently."

"You're talking about the boy named Han Xiao, right? A puppet master who Liyue used to be famous for her clay puppets."

"According to the secret report sent back urgently, that boy has been listed as a candidate for Tianshu Star."

Puccinela paused, and laughed out loud looking at Pantalone's suddenly froze face:

"Your chess piece was also dug out by him. It seems that we have another opponent."

Chapter 80 Chapter 73 Hanxiao's No.1 Puppet (4/4)

Half a month has passed since Guili City was established.

In just half a month, Guili City has undergone earth-shaking changes.

First, the workers who had obtained the resident certificate bought their own houses at a relatively favorable price with the salaries they had saved while working.

However, they only have the permanent right to use the house itself, and the land itself still belongs to the Licheng government. After the expiration, they have to pay a certain amount of land rights transfer fee renewal fee.

This is the result of discussions between Ke Qing and Han Xiao.

In the previous Liyue Port, after buying a house, the land would be permanently owned by private individuals, which made the construction land in Liyue Port more and more expensive.

So Han Xiao approached Ning Guang and Yan Fei after talking with Ke Qing, and legally changed the land ownership model.

After talking about the house, let's talk about business.

Han Xiao also approved their request to settle in after the establishment of Guili City, as promised to those big merchants in Liyue Port.

These businessmen have spent huge sums of money to rent the storefronts in the best parts of the business district, and then began to build branches and warehouses for goods storage.

In order to thank Xingqiu's father for his support, Han Xiao leased the most prosperous piece of land in the business district to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.

As for the business war between these chambers of commerce, he didn't bother to manage it, just do a good job in macro-control.

If it really broke the law, wouldn't there be Qianyan Army?

In addition to Liyue's side, many businessmen from Mond's side also came to Guili City because of the agreement between Qin and Hanxiao and rented land to build a warehouse center.

Among other things, the bar opened by Chenxi Winery in the commercial street has become a favorite place for many Guili City residents to go to when they have a rest.

Han Xiao has also been there, but unfortunately the bartender in the bar is just a branch manager hired by Di Luke.

In fact, Han Xiao wanted to go to Mond City to poach Diona, but considering Mao Mao's own aversion to alcohol, he could only give up this tempting idea in the end.

In short, after half a month, Guili City has been on the right track, and with the settlement of merchants, tax revenue has begun to come in.

The functional planning of Guili City's commercial operation center was successfully realized.

The rest is agricultural.

The plain outside the city has been treated with alkali-containing substances such as lime powder, and the salinized land has been neutralized to some extent, and a new batch of rice seeds has been sown.

In order to improve the efficiency of planting, Han Xiao asked for the blueprints of Qu Yuanli and other tools from the chat group and gave them to the Yunhan family for production.

It can be said that as long as the first batch of grain is received, the two functions of establishing Guili City can be realized.

By the way, because the development of Guili City is on the right track, Han Xiao's workload has also been greatly reduced.

He now spends most of his time in the workshop with Abedo, studying with Abedo while conducting his own alchemy experiments.

"Morning Hanxiao!"

"Master Han Xiao, good morning!"

"Well, you are early too!"

Going to the street side of the workshop, the residents saw Han Xiao walking along the street and greeted him with sincere smiles on their faces.

Han Xiao smiled and nodded in response to everyone, and walked along the main road to the workshop.

When he opened the door, he saw Abedo who was busy in front of the alchemy table.

"Morning, Abedo."

"morning."

Abedo, who was working, replied without raising his head, still focusing on the matter in his hands.

No way, Han Xiao really fulfilled his promise and gave him a lot of seemingly challenging subjects.

For example, mass-produced cheap, stable and confidential Dudu communicators.

Is it possible to collect the electricity from Leihua Hua and Ray Slime as a new energy source.

And how to install a stable power core on the carriage to replace the horse power.

There are also topics such as transforming existing production tools and living tools with alchemy technology.

It can be said that these many subjects made Abei very painful and happy. The subjects are all good subjects, but Han Xiao can't just keep him tight and squeeze them hard.

In this regard, Han·Capitalist·King of Street Lamps·Xiao said that you, Abedok, have only worked for me for three years, and I am sorry for the tax exemption strategy for Mond merchants if I don't squeeze you dry.

Anyway, a year later, Fontaine even created a prototype of the difference engine. If a catastrophe is really going to happen, Liyue must be able to resist at least.

After all, if you don't even have the ability to resist at all, it's no different from waiting to die.

"By the way, Abedo, the alchemy workshop in Mingyun Town has basically taken shape. Do you want to move there?"

"Being not."

"The alchemy workshop over there is used as a production line, and I'll just go back to Licheng for research."

Hearing Han Xiao's inquiry, Abedo put down his work and thought for a while before rejecting the proposal.

Originally, he planned to go to Mingyun Town, but with the rapid development of Guili City's business district, there are now shops selling alchemy materials from various countries.

Therefore, considering factors such as convenience, Abedo chose to stay in the alchemy workshop in Guili City after weighing it.

"That's good, it's more convenient for me to find you."

Seeing that Abedo intends to stay in Guili City, Han Xiao has no objection. Anyway, he can have more time to learn the other party's alchemy if he is closer.

After finishing speaking, Han Xiao walked to her workbench and started her own research.

On his workbench, a doll with a size of only six inches (14-20cm) is lying on it.

As an ancestral native of Chongguo, the puppet made by Han Xiao has typical white hair and red pupils, and the face is very similar to the vampire Sophie in the memory of her previous life.

Fingers lightly brushed the doll's skin, feeling the skin touch from the fingertips, Han Xiao showed a satisfied smile.

As expected of the artificial material skin provided by Abedo, it feels almost no different from normal people.

Reaching out to open the doll's chest, the transformed doll's movement is inlaid with a castrated version of the Vientiane Eye that contains a self-explosive device, and is being assembled together in an orderly manner by dense mechanical parts.

"I have to say that your puppet skills are indeed very powerful."

Watching Han Xiao carefully adjust the internal parts of the doll, Abedo couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

The Eye of Vientiane is no different from the Eye of God in terms of function, at most it belongs to the youth version in terms of power.

Generally speaking, finding ways to increase the power of the Eye of Vientiane is the choice of most people.

But what Abedo didn't expect was that Han Xiao actually found a new way to develop the elemental combat technique of manipulating dolls with silk threads.

Of course, apart from admiration, what made him even more frantic was that Han Xiao not only used the castrated Vientiane Eye combined with the puppet mechanism as the power source of the puppet, but also added a self-destruct device to it.

"Thank you for the compliment."

"By the way, does this puppet have a name, like the stained Sheep No. [-] before?"

"Yes, let's call her Miss Qiu."

"what?"

"Just kidding, her name is Yanxing."

Chapter 81 Chapter 74 Invite Xian Dianyi (Fifth Change)

Soon, the residents of Guili City got the news.

That is their city lord, one of the seven stars of Liyue, Tianshuxing·Hanxiao-sama, whether he is going out or working every day, there is a beautiful doll wearing Liyue's traditional gauze skirt sitting on his shoulder.

The residents were a little surprised by this at first, but then someone remembered that Han Xiao was Li Yue's most famous earth puppet master before Qixing, and everyone suddenly realized.

Feelings Our Lord Han Xiao has not forgotten his hobbies even after becoming a big shot.

It can be said that the appearance of the puppet not only did not damage Han Xiao's image, but also improved his reputation in Guili City.

Han Xiao did not expect this.

He carried the rock star with him only because the Eye of Vientiane currently does not have the space function that comes with the Eye of God, so he had to choose it as a last resort.

When secretary Xu Wan learned of the reasons for her increased reputation in the world, Han Xiao had nothing to say about it.

He was convinced by the associative ability of the residents of Guili City.
