Chapter 16

As clever as Hu Tao was, she understood what Zhong Li meant in an instant.

"Hugging a powerful thigh?"

"Heh, pretty much, yeah."

"From the science video just now, you already know."

"In this universe, there are many great powers with far-reaching fame."

"And the upper echelons of these great powers — ordinary people normally have no way to meet them at all."

"But right now, in this livestream, you and I can actually strike up a conversation with them!"

"This — is an opportunity!"

"Based on what the comments said earlier, Teyvat is, at best, just a small asteroid."

"In the vastness of the cosmos, it's hardly worth mentioning."

"So if we could build good relations with the upper echelons of some great powers, and later ask them to extend their protection over Teyvat, it'd probably be just a matter of a single word."

Zhong Li, standing now from the standpoint of worldly wisdom,

offered Hu Tao a bit of analysis.

"Brilliant, brilliant!"

"The consultant is indeed smooth!"

"Then the important task of building good relations for our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor — I'll leave it to you!"

"Best to recommend our services to every great power in the universe!"

Hu Tao listened, her heart blooming with joy, and could not help but pat Zhong Li on the shoulder, entrusting him with an important mission.

"..."

"Hall Master, if the chance arises, I will do my best."

This back-and-forth had once again dragged things back to Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's business,

leaving Zhong Li a bit helpless, able only to open his mouth and offer a couple of perfunctory words.
