Chapter 281 Bonus, Tartaglia's Invitation to Fight
The golden red sunlight was falling, and the west-facing sun was gradually turning towards dusk. Ye Li followed Keqing's footsteps to Yujingtai and walked towards the main hall of the General Affairs Department, with Zhongli and Tartaglia following behind him.
Ye Li is a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall, and Zhong Li is a colleague, so it is natural for him to know Ye Li's situation in the General Affairs Department, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the hall master.
As for Dardalia, as one of the diplomats of the Northland Bank, it is normal for him to go to the General Affairs Department to discuss trade between the two countries, but he must be strictly supervised to avoid any accidents.
Arriving at the exquisite and spacious palace gate of the General Affairs Department, Ye Li calmly followed Keqing to the top of the palace and came to the door of an office.
Keqing raised her hand to open the door, and took Ye Li into the office, which was neatly arranged but had piles of documents on each desk.
Sitting behind the desk in the center that belonged to Yuhengxing, Keqing looked at Ye Li, who was smiling but not nervous at all, with a complicated look in her eyes. Without much hesitation, she spoke in a businesslike manner:
"Ye Li, we haven't checked your information yet, but since your contract with Wangsheng Hall has been recognized by the Emperor, we can rule out the possibility that you are an outsider spy. In addition, you helped the General Affairs Department solve the case and worked with the caravan to capture the treasure-stealing group. Your behavior is sincere. In addition to the reward, your identity procedures have also been completed."
Keqing spoke seriously. She was deeply impressed by Ye Li who appeared out of nowhere in front of her. However, according to the investigation of the Qianyan Army and the General Affairs Department, there was nothing special about the other party's identity except that he was an illegal resident.
The reason why he has to deal with special matters now is because he helped the caravan repel and capture the treasure-stealing group. In addition, according to Ningguang's evaluation, he has encountered both good and bad things.
Ye Li was not surprised to hear Keqing tell him many things about herself. After all, Yuhengxing, who was sitting at the desk in front of him, was the leader in the population and building census. He could just check whether he had a household registration or not.
He could only say that his previous acts of bravery and assistance to businessmen had helped him get rid of many troubles. Now that his identity problem had been resolved, he no longer had to worry about certain things and could do it with confidence.
Reaching out to take the ID card handed over by Keqing, Ye Li said calmly:
"Thank you very much for your help, Master Yuheng. I will make you a set of mechanical toys for the Emperor's battle against Osel someday. I will definitely satisfy you."
"You are too polite. I am just doing my job. Besides, the Emperor's toys are just children's toys. I am not interested in them."
Keqing smiled and shook her head. She appeared calm and polite on the surface, but she was actually startled inside. She almost thought that Ye Li recognized her as the person who bought the toy that night. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and refused.
Keqing thought so, and a faint sense of helplessness and regret burst out in her heart. That was the toy that the Emperor used to conquer Osel. Coupled with the mechanical technology of the guy in front of her, the effect would definitely be better than the Emperor's figure that was bought for her before.
Silently regretting in her heart, Keqing controlled her facial muscles and said with a forced smile:
"Oh, by the way, this is the reward for helping the General Affairs Department solve the case. It's 5 Moraga and a specially made medal. You can use the medal in the General Affairs Department.
Guys like you who have superb martial arts and skills are rare talents. If I have time, I will also gather people like you to help the General Affairs Department. "
Looking at the small and exquisite golden medal in his hand, Ye Li picked up the bag of 50,000 Mora, weighed it, and nodded:
"Thank you very much for your care, Master Yuheng. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first. After all, my colleagues are still waiting for me."
"Just call me Keqing. And the colleague from the Wangsheng Hall you mentioned, Mr. Zhongli, is in the reception room in the middle of the attic. There is a sign in front of the door. You can check it out before leaving."
"Thank you very much for your reminder, Miss Keqing. I will take my leave now."
Ye Li raised his hand and performed a martial arts etiquette, then turned and walked towards the door, glanced at the sign in front of the door, then reached out to open the door. However, when he reached for the door handle, the door opened by itself.
Seeing the familiar figure walking in with a pile of documents after the door opened, Ye Li subconsciously and habitually reached out to skillfully take the other party's documents and placed them on an office desk in front of the door. This action also made Gan Yu, who had nothing in her hands, stunned for a second.
Ye Li reacted quickly, smiled embarrassedly and said:
"Ahaha, sorry, sorry, I took it subconsciously when I saw you carrying so many things. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
"Hey, it's okay. I was a little careless and didn't notice you when I was moving things. You don't have to apologize."
The awkward conversation between the two made Keqing, who was sitting at the central desk in the distance, smile but did not comment much.
……
In the inner world, in front of the stone table in the open space outside the bamboo forest hut.
Gui Zhong looked at the intelligence he had collected with a serious expression. The news about Tartaglia was particularly eye-catching.
All of this information was obtained by Ye Li from asking Tartaglia on his way to the General Affairs Department. Along the way, Zhongli also provided a lot of useful information, such as information about the Ice God and other gods.
"I didn't expect so many things to happen in the future. The so-called Ice God is not the first generation of gods. This means that something terrible must have happened before the second generation of gods took the throne, leading to the current situation."
"If I'm not mistaken, it was probably a catastrophe that the flower god had predicted that would sweep across Teyvat. Otherwise, the god wouldn't have passed away so easily."
"From a common sense perspective, we are well prepared now and we shouldn't be as passive as they are. Once Ye Li has collected enough information, we can discuss countermeasures."
"It can only be the."
The three of them were talking at this time, and their eyes were all looking at Ye Li who had already arrived at the reception room in front of the screen, continuing to collect information about the surrounding situation for analysis.
……
In the secondary time and space, on the continent of Teyvat, Liyue, in front of the main hall of the General Affairs Department headquarters.
Ye Li and the other two walked out of the gate. Tartaglia looked at Ye Li with a smile on his face. His excited eyes and the way he stretched his muscles made his purpose clear.
Ye Li knew that this guy might have already known that he had defeated many treasure-stealing groups. As a warmonger, Tartaglia, who liked to challenge masters, would naturally not miss the opportunity to compete with him.
"Brother Yeli, I heard that you single-handedly killed more than 50 treasure-stealing groups. I'm itching to do something. Can I have a sparring match with you? Don't worry, I will never use the power of the Eye of God."
Tartaglia showed a serious expression, and that attitude completely treated Ye Li as a master among ordinary people. As a person who crawled out of the abyss, he should give the respect of a warrior to this guy who defeated many powerful enemies with ordinary strength.
Ye Li sighed helplessly. It was a blessing in disguise. If it was a disaster, it would be unavoidable. Even though he had been low-key enough, he was still entangled by the young master in the end.
"It's no problem for us to have a sparring match. I also want to see how strong the Fatui's executive officer is without the Eye of God."
"It's settled then. When will we start sparring?"
Seeing that Tartaglia was already impatient, Ye Li immediately poured a bucket of cold water on him.
"Wait until I finish my work. After all, the hall master is still selling coffins."
"I've bought the coffins. I'll take all the coffins you have. If they're not enough, just put them on the Northland Bank."
"Sir, you are so generous. Come on, come on, sign this contract first. I will ask the hall master for a leave later. It will be regarded as a reward for receiving a big order on the first day of work."
Seeing the funny smile on Ye Li's face, Zhongli, who was following behind the two of them, couldn't help but shook his head and looked at Tartaglia with pity. He was really being cheated and was still helping to count the money.
