Chapter 132 Growing Emerald
The study room in the winery did not smell like alcohol as Bai Qiyun imagined. Instead, because of the large collection of books, the place was filled with the aroma of paper, which was refreshing.
"The Young Master's family is here today. I think there must be something important."
After welcoming Bai Qiyun into the room, Diluc sat down on the main seat.
If he remembered correctly, the young man in front of him should have been traveling with the honorary knight. It was a bit strange that he was the only one here today.
Bai Qiyun sat on the chair, with his hands on both sides, and the birch armrests with a Monde flavor passed through his hands, bringing him a touch of coolness in the hot summer.
As expected of a wealthy family, even the seats used for entertaining guests are so particular.
"If you really want to say it, it's not a big deal. It's just that I met Mr. Kaiya this morning. He said that this book belongs to you, Mr. Diluc."
Bai Qiyun took out the book Kaiya had given him from his backpack. The simple cover immediately attracted Diluc's attention.
After handing the book to Diluc, who was in a daze, Bai Qiyun sat on the chair and waited for the other party's reaction.
"This is..."
Similar to Kaia's previous reaction, Diluc stroked the cover of the book as if reminiscing about the past.
After a while, he couldn't help but sigh.
"I owe you a favor, young master."
There is no doubt that this is my father's book, and it was the last one he compiled before his death.
No wonder he searched all over the old house but couldn't find it. It was actually lost outside.
Mixed with some emotion, Diluc put the book in his hand to the highest place on the bookshelf and treasured it.
"Favors are too much. I only came across this book by chance. It can only be said to be fate, fate."
Seeing Diluc's actions, Bai Qiyun sat on the chair with a smile and waved his hands repeatedly.
Just because he said that, can Diluc pretend that it never happened?
That's obviously impossible. As the backbone of Mondstadt's wine industry, the head of the Leckenfend family is not so poor that he can't even afford to pay back any personal favors.
But that guy Kaia still remembers it, which really makes him not know what to say.
Diluc pondered for a moment and pushed all three boxes in his hand in front of Bai Qiyun.
"Open it and take a look. This is what you asked me to find before."
Hearing this, Bai Qiyun quickly stepped forward and opened the three boxes in front of him one after another.
Three elemental substances with different shapes lay quietly among them. Even if he did not open his elemental vision, he could clearly feel the huge elemental power contained in them.
Thunder, rock, grass, the three elements are equally good.
"Master Diluc acted really quickly."
It's only been a few days, but I didn't expect it to be ready.
This man's influence and connections in Mondstadt simply exceeded Bai Qiyun's imagination.
Diluc didn't pay attention to the young man's praise. This kind of trivial matter was not worth mentioning to him.
However, I did encounter some minor troubles when collecting these items.
"It's good that I can meet your requirements. It's just that there are some troubles when collecting grass element creations. The main reason is that there are no traces of such powerful creatures in Mondstadt, so we can only go through the auction channel."
And it must be through underground auction channels. The success this time was thanks to the person who made the move who was in a hurry to spend money. He was able to buy the gems from the other party at a good price.
"Thunder prism, basalt tower, and then this... turns out to be this thing!"
Yandora, who had not spoken since entering the house, was so shocked that she shouted out when she saw the three treasures in the box.
The emerald green gem glowed with sunlight, shocking Yandora to the spot.
"Where did you get this from?"
The first two are naturally derived from the Formless Thunder and the Formless Rock. Although Yandora has never met them, she has heard about them a little bit. However, this third thing is so precious that even she can't.
I just browsed a few fragments in the ethnic heritage memory.
"Why are you so excited?"
In order to prevent his little elf from making a fool of himself in front of others, Bai Qiyun quickly pulled Yan Duola back to his side as she was wandering around.
However, in the process of being pulled back by Bai Qiyun, Yandora still did not move away from her gaze on the alexandrite.
"This is not something to be excited about. You have no idea what this means."
The little guy broke free from Bai Qiyun's hand and flew to the stone to wander around.
In order not to make any mistakes, she took a few more glances to make sure it was the thing in her memory.
"Nagadus Emeraid Gemstone, a symbol of divine authority."
That natural alexandrite was exactly what Yandola had in mind.
Although you look like an ordinary gem from the outside, it contains the power delegated by the gods themselves.
Generally speaking, this kind of thing will never leak out, and will only be firmly controlled by the gods' subordinates in their rightful place.
Judging from this fluctuation, is it the grass element? What happened to Sumeru that caused the leakage of such treasures?
Who sold this thing on the black market and circulated it to Mondstadt?
Everything behind this is far from what Yandola or Bai Qiyun can know now.
"Really? It turns out this thing is so precious."
Even after just hearing a few words of Yandora's description, Diluc understood how incredible this transaction was.
Speaking of which, it seems that the person who sold the gems never appeared in front of his butler once, and only communicated with the auction house personnel through notes. If you really think about it, there are a lot of things that need to be explored.
"Forehead..."
Hearing this, Yandora felt that she had done something bad.
If this made Diluc understand the value, wouldn't this cooked duck be...
"But no matter how precious this thing is, I actually only paid a small amount of mora, and these things are not something that ordinary people can use."
In fact, Diluc once tried to structure the elemental power in it, but gave up the idea because it was too complicated.
"To me, these things are not as precious as that father's book. My young master, please feel free to accept it."
These three things are of no use to him, and the amount of mola they cost is not that huge, so it would be a good idea to use them in exchange for this favor.
As for the matter of forcibly detaining the things that were sent out, the Leckenfeld family still cannot do such a shameful thing and throw them into the Longji Snow Mountain.
Looking at the three treasures in front of him that were full of strong elemental power, Bai Qiyun swallowed.
He understood what Diluc meant, but he also understood how much willpower it took to refuse the temptation at hand. To this day, the nobles of Mondstadt still have their own persistence, which is really remarkable.
"Then I would be disrespectful."
After accepting the three elemental substances, Bai Qiyun called out the water star map in front of Diluc without hesitation, and pressed them one by one. If you like Genshin Impact, please still collect the spear: (https://www.bajiewx.com) Original
