Coral Palace Xinhai also brought herself a cup of tea, put it in her hands to warm her body, and lowered her head to sip like a kitten drinking water.

"I still need your help, Mr. Bai, in this matter."

"I?"

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun looked stunned. He didn't expect that he would have something to do with him after this.

"Well, you are still a representative from Liyue in the eyes of everyone on Haiji Island. I will ask my witches to continue to emphasize this point in the future. The evidence is insufficient at the moment and I can only rely on your activities to lure those behind the scenes.

Keep moving so I can continue to collect evidence."

Immediately, Xinhai told Bai Qiyun all his thoughts.

To put it simply, widely spread the transaction process between Liyue and Haizhi Island, and include Blood Branch Coral, another pillar of Haizhi Island.

If those people from the chamber of commerce can't hold back, they will definitely follow the example of the previous attack on coral pearl oysters and attack the blood branch coral breeding base again.

And if nothing goes wrong, I'm afraid someone from the Chamber of Commerce will secretly contact Bai Qiyun.

After all, blowing up the breeding base is just an urgent need for these people. If the management rights of Liyue can be taken into their hands, even if the dirty things of the Chamber of Commerce are exposed, they will have a way out.

After all, who doesn't want to have a way out when they are in the world of martial arts?

"But if you do this, aren't you afraid that there will be problems with the Blood Branch Coral?"

Bai Qiyun twitched his brows, remembering the sad look on his face when the entire Zhenhai army was wiped out.

If there were another problem with the Blood Branch Coral, this woman would probably want to commit suicide by drowning herself in the river.

"Don't worry, I will be fully prepared this time."

Xinhai slapped her slightly plump chest heavily, but judging from her expression, she was still a little panicked.

It seems that this time she has also made up her mind to succeed or die.

He directly bet on the harvest of Haiji Island in the next year.

"Okay, I will fully cooperate with you."

Since the real owner doesn't mind, then Bai Qiyun, an outsider, naturally won't feel bad at all.

"But is there a flaw in your statement?"

"What loophole?"

"...whose special envoy will live in the palace?"

Yes, although Bai Qiyun's identity can be spread through the mouth of the witch, his living in the shrine will definitely be exposed once the Chamber of Commerce conducts a thorough investigation. After all, this is not a secret.

Hearing this, a flash of panic flashed in Coral Palace Xinhai's eyes.

She had forgotten about it.

"this and that..."

"I'd better go out and live for a few days first, and then move back when all these things are done."

"....That's all it can do."

Seeing Bai Qiyun being so considerate, a look of shame appeared on Xinhai's face.

Obviously these were all her problems, but in the end she was treated poorly, which really made her feel a little guilty.

"Ah, I live near Kuki-nin. If you want to find me, go there."

"Ah? Isn't the environment there a little too crude... and it doesn't suit your status as the special envoy of Liyue..."

As soon as he heard that Bai Qiyun was going to live with Jiu Qi Ren, Xinhai immediately panicked and started to find all kinds of lame excuses.

It turns out that you also know that the environment there is terrible.

Bai Qiyun glanced at the panicked mind, but didn't say anything else.

He silently took his coat and walked towards Kuki Nin's residence outside the shrine.

"Hmm? Mr. Bai? Is the matter settled?"

Looking at the figure of the man who suddenly appeared in front of him, Jiuqi Ren was startled.

She looked at the sky outside and saw that it was already late.

Normally it's time to get off work. Although she is on a business trip now, please abide by the time rules.

A boss looking for someone at this time will not leave such a good impression on his subordinates...even though he is a bit handsome.

Kuki Shinobu put down the plate in his hand and walked out the door.

Speaking of which, it seems that she was also eating when we last met here.

This guy couldn't have come here just for lunch, right?

"Well, generally leave it to Coral Palace and the others to handle it themselves. We just need some cooperation."

"Cooperate?"

Seeing the confusion on Jiuqinuo's face, Bai Qiyun told all the plans in his heart. Jiuqinuo nodded while listening.

After hearing it, she couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of her heart.

"So that's it. The living goddess witch really dares to bet."

"Anyway, that's pretty much what it means. I won't be able to live in the shrine in a short time, so I can only come here to find you."

Hearing this, Kuki-nin's brows raised slightly.

She looked at the handsome young man in front of her, who was even a few years younger than herself, and couldn't help but murmured a few words in her heart.

This man really has no sense of proportion.

"Really? Then I'll go and ask if there are any other houses."

After saying that, Kuki Ren stood up and walked towards the landlord who rented the house to him.

Although her residence was arranged by the shrine maidens of Sōun Shrine, the person she met was a local.

Fortunately, the group of shrine maidens did not reveal Kuki-nin's identity, otherwise Kuki-nin might have been greeted with a blank stare from the landlord.

This is also the bottom line that Xinhai draws for himself when he is being petty. He can disgust the visitors of Daozuma City, but he cannot affect other people.

After a while, Jiuqi Ren came back from the house with a sullen face.

"Sorry, Mr. Bai, the landlord said there are no other houses for rent here."

"No? How is this possible?"

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun's words were filled with a hint of surprise.

He had heard about it. All the retired Haiji Island resistance soldiers had gone to sea. How could there be no houses left for rent?

unless...

Perhaps seeing through Bai Qiyun's guess, Jiu Qi reluctantly spread his hands.

"Yes, that's right. Unless, most of the resistance soldiers didn't have their own houses from the beginning... After all, they can go to the battlefield to fight. Most of these people have relatively poor living conditions.

, and the group of people who have local houses will not choose to go to sea to make a living, oh, your acquaintance may be an exception."

"This... house is valuable everywhere."

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun's face was also full of helplessness.

As a person from Liyue, he has a deeper understanding of real estate than the people from Daoji.

"Today...well..."

Bai Qiyun looked around and found that there was only one room in Jiuqi Ren's house. Even if he wanted to sleep here, he couldn't.

"Let's stay here today."

Seeing the embarrassment on Bai Qiyun's face, Jiu Qiren, as a caring subordinate, took the initiative to extend the invitation.

"Eh? But the two of us..."

"It's okay if you just sleep. I used to sleep in the wild, and I'm not as particular as you."

Jiu Qi Ren naturally knew what Bai Qiyun cared about, but she deliberately led the topic elsewhere.
