Chapter 345

After all, compared to Morax, Jiang Yan is the one who has truly led Liyue by the hand since its founding.

But looking at the current situation.

It seems Jiang Yan... really didn't hide any contingency plans?

The facts seem to be exactly that.

However, no one can say for sure.

Whether through Morax's perception or anything else.

It's impossible to find out what Jiang Yan has hidden.

So now, all the evidence is making Morax believe that Jiang Yan truly didn't hide any contingency plans.

He really isn't managing anything at all.

However, on the way back, Morax also figured it out.

Jiang Yan actually has no need to manage anything.

After all, over thousands of years, Jiang Yan has already turned the entire Liyue Harbor into an iron fortress.

If it weren't for Morax introducing Snezhnaya's Northland Bank during the time Jiang Yan retired.

Even if the people from Snezhnaya were busy for a thousand years, they would never be able to enter Liyue.

Either you, the merchants of Snezhnaya, follow Liyue's rules honestly and conduct commercial trade properly.

Or don't even dream of participating in commercial trade between Liyue and other nations.

As the city of commerce and the trade center of the seven nations.

If Liyue were to restrict Snezhnaya's commercial trade, it would cause irreparable losses to Snezhnaya's domestic economy.

Jiang Yan has always treated people from other countries like this.

You are not a citizen of my Liyue, and you expect me to be nice to you?

Are you dreaming?

This is exactly why.

During the time Jiang Yan governed Liyue, the Snezhnayan side didn't even dare to show their faces.

The absolute advantage in commercial economy naturally brought about national prosperity.

The reason Liyue's military strength has such a terrifying and daunting scale today.

Is entirely supported by Liyue's economic strength.

Otherwise, if it were any other country, the national economy would have long been on the verge of collapse.

With the army, navy, and air force guarding Liyue, and countless adepti and beings like Azhdaha guarding the territory.

Morax estimates that this is why Jiang Yan could leave so rest-assured.

Even if Jiang Yan leaves, if the Snezhnayan side wants to pull some tricks against Liyue.

It wouldn't cause any chaos for Liyue itself.

Perhaps there would be unrest, but it definitely wouldn't last long.

After all, Ningguang is no pushover either.

Thinking of this, Morax sighed.

"Jiang Yan, oh Jiang Yan..."

Morax's eyes held a hint of complexity.

"You really are something..."

The scene shifts to Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan didn't go directly to the Dark Sea; instead, he went to Inazuma first.

Recently, Raiden Makoto, Raiden Ei, and Kitsune Saiguu have all been busy in Inazuma and haven't returned.

Originally, Jiang Yan wasn't worried; Raiden Makoto's ability to handle government affairs is no joke.

Even if there were any danger, not to mention that Jiang Yan would be able to perceive it immediately.

Just with Raiden Ei and the puppet she created, the Raiden Shogun.

There is basically nothing in Inazuma that could be considered dangerous.

However, since Jiang Yan is going to the Dark Sea, it's uncertain when he will return.

He still needs to talk to Raiden Makoto and the others.

Greater Lord Rukkhadevata came back the day before yesterday, so she knows that Jiang Yan is going out.

A faint stream of light streaked across the sky of Inazuma City and landed on the outskirts of the city.

"Inazuma... it's been a long time since I've been here!"

Jiang Yan flexed his wrists, looking at the bustling Inazuma City as it was in the past, saying with some emotion.

At this time, Inazuma is not governed by Raiden Ei.

Nor is it governed by the Raiden Shogun, who is set in the game to pursue eternity.

Instead, it is governed by the Raiden Shogun, who combines Raiden Makoto's gentleness and wisdom with Raiden Ei's martial prowess and decisiveness—one could say she is a fusion of the two sisters' strengths.

Naturally, Inazuma wouldn't be as lifeless as it was in the game.

Jiang Yan likes this kind of Inazuma.

It has a vibrant feeling.

As Jiang Yan walked into the city, the endless stream of hawking sounds rushed toward him.

Because Inazuma is a neighbor of Liyue.

Plus Jiang Yan's relationship with Raiden Makoto and the others.

So in a way, Inazuma's style is very similar to Liyue's.

Especially regarding people's livelihood; due to the large number of Liyue merchants moving in, Inazuma City's commerce has begun to develop vigorously.

So, in a sense, the entry of Liyue merchants is also a disguised form of Liyue supporting Inazuma.

It's pretty much like that; originally, Jiang Yan even wanted to have the Liyue Navy set up a permanent station here.

But thinking about it, that seems like it wouldn't be support, but colonization, so forget it.

After all, it's his wife's country; if Jiang Yan were to intervene without permission, Raiden Makoto and the others wouldn't be happy.

Jiang Yan just wandered lazily on the street, admiring the scenery of Inazuma.

It's so good!!

Not long after walking, Jiang Yan encountered an old acquaintance.

Light blue hair, a slender and tall figure, every gesture carrying elegance and nobility.

Well, of course, it does look a bit abrupt in front of this dango milk tea shop.

"Yo! Isn't this little Ayato!"

Jiang Yan said with a smile, greeting him as he stepped forward.

Originally, Kamisato Ayato was in a pretty good mood today.

The Yashiro Commission's tasks were basically all completed, and it was rare to come out for a stroll.

Usually, Thoma buys milk tea for him.

Because he happened to have nothing to do today, he decided to come out for a stroll himself and buy a cup of his beloved milk tea to drink.

As a result, not long after he started queuing here, he heard a familiar call.

Little Ayato?

Such a familiar form of address!

Kamisato Ayato frowned; it had indeed been a long time since anyone had called him that.

Ever since his father retired and he began managing the affairs of the Yashiro Commission.

Kamisato Ayato went from being "little Ayato" in everyone's mouth to the head of the Kamisato Clan.

Who is it?

Kamisato Ayato turned his head with some confusion.

When he saw that familiar white hair, that face that had always been in the depths of his memory.

Kamisato Ayato turned his head abruptly.

An illusion!
