Chapter 254: Ten Years in Liyue (3)
"That, so beautiful."
Looking at the goldfish swimming around in the illuminated glass fish tank in front of him, Xiao Qiyun was filled with wonder.
He has never seen such a thing since he was a child.
"Guys, please come here."
The businessman from Fontaine received these guests from extraordinary places and introduced them to their batch of goods from foreign countries.
What? You asked him how he knew that the person in front of him had extraordinary origins.
Didn't you see the chainmail that the leading woman was wearing? He had only seen that thing on high-ranking military officers in Liyue. Maybe the person in front of him was a high-ranking military official, so he couldn't neglect it.
"Look here, this is the latest glass crystal jar developed by Fontaine. On the basis of glass products, we have added crystals that can be automatically excited under certain conditions."
Against the backdrop of the setting sun, the fish tank emitting various crystal lights is so beautiful and breathtaking.
The light effect also changes over time, sometimes it is aqua blue, and sometimes it is golden yellow, which is really beautiful.
"Oh~"
Bai Qiyun, who was supporting Xiao Qiyun, also looked surprised.
Something so beautiful must be quite precious.
"Huh? Is it that pretty?"
On the contrary, our Commander-in-Chief Xue raised his eyebrows and didn't see anything good about the glowing fish tank in front of him.
If it shines again, it's just a fish tank.
"Forget it, let's look at something else."
However, looking at the old and young father and son looking at each other intently, she still sighed, took out the bank check from her wallet and bought this expensive-looking thing.
"So, do I still have to hold it after I finish buying it?"
It’s really a waste of money to get yourself into trouble.
Xue Luanying looked at her son holding the cat and her husband supporting the child. She really couldn't give the fish tank to these two guys.
But what surprised her was that this fancy-looking fish tank was actually not that expensive, only 20,000 molara.
Could it be that the businessman figured out her identity?
Will it be considered as accepting a bribe?
The woman quickly shook her head, shook those unimportant things out of her mind, and took two steps forward to follow her husband.
"Look over there!"
Following Xiao Qiyun's exclamation, the couple looked at the busiest section of the business district. A steel machine rose from the ground, with several box-like things hanging high on it, attracting people around them to stop.
, it’s like a castle in the air.
"Is that a new product from Fontaine too?"
Bai Mu, who was holding the fish tank, glanced at the increasingly crowded crowd around her, and quickly pulled the two of them under the big machine.
She raised her snow-white neck, and the long ponytail on the back of her head almost reached her heels. Several large iron boxes hung on iron arms hung high over the heads of passers-by, looking a bit dangerous.
"This thing looks interesting."
As a soldier, Xue Luanying immediately began to analyze the actual combat value of this thing.
If it could be raised higher and divided according to regions, I am afraid that only seven or eight of these things would be needed to cover the entire Liyue Port within sight and monitor it 24 hours a day, 24 hours a day.
It is estimated that the crime rate will further decrease in this way, but building something like that would probably be quite a waste of time and money.
And it won't have much effect in some places with uneven terrain, especially in wild places surrounded by mountains. Blocking the view a little will have no effect.
"Yes, guest, we at Fontaine call this thing a lifting tower. There is also a wheel-style one called a Ferris wheel, but that one takes up more space and is not easy to transport to Liyue for installation. How about some of you try it?
"
Seeing that the woman dressed like a soldier showed interest in her products, the responsible merchant quickly welcomed a few people over.
Many of the products on display in the commercial street today are not for sale. For example, the big thing he has now took several days just to install it.
The main purpose of exhibiting these products is to investigate the demand for these products among the people of Liyue, and then use these data as a voucher for the official processing of imported goods in Liyue, as well as a basis for adjusting the speed of domestic product production.
Therefore, he is happy to invite these guests who look like high-level people to come and experience this new object from a foreign country for themselves.
"Eh? Is it really okay?"
Xiao Qiyun, who was riding on his father's body, his eyes lit up after hearing the invitation, and the strength of his hand unconsciously became a little heavier, pinching the little white cat in his arms and grinning.
"Hey, since I've invited you, let's go up and have a look. Let's go quickly."
Xue Luanying looked at her husband who looked hesitant beside her and quickly raised her arms.
Although there is some interest in this thing, the main reason why she wants to get into it now is that the fish tank at hand is too troublesome. After getting in, she can find a place to put it and rest for a while.
"That...okay then."
Looking at the large iron box that was not touching the ground, Bai Qingshan swallowed, his voice a little unnatural.
Surrounded by several people, he could only honestly walk into the iron box that fell to the ground.
"Dang~"
The soles of the shoes made a dull sound when they stepped on the iron surface.
Looking at the surrounding scenery that began to change as the height increased, Bai Qingshan's hands and feet were a little stiff, not at all as comfortable as he was on the stage.
This... is so high.
Before boarding this thing, he had never realized that he was afraid of heights.
He could never accept this feeling of alienation when his feet were separated from the earth and hung high in the air.
But unlike him, the mother and son looking out the window looked extremely excited.
Fortunately, it seems that Xiao Qiyun has an inherited personality in this aspect, which has to be a good thing for Bai Qingshan.
The scenery in front of him gradually spread out, and the people under his feet became smaller and smaller. The originally tall adults were as small as ants on the street in Xiao Qiyun's eyes.
In addition to the bustling business district, the mountains in the distance are no longer mysterious to him at this time. Through the glass, you can vaguely see the plains further away, green and lush.
"Wow, that's awesome."
It was the first time since Xiao Qiyun was born that he stood at such a high place and looked into the distance. The endless land in his field of vision seemed to be within reach.
"Yes, it's so powerful. As long as you give me a team of men here, I can control the entire neighborhood."
The woman calmly said something that the young Qiyun couldn't understand at all, causing Bai Qingshan's mouth to twitch unconsciously.
"Um?"
Seeing her son's expression of not understanding anything, Xue Luanying laughed and touched the back of her head, confused.
While the family of three was chatting, the ground was getting closer and closer to them, and the setting sun gradually disappeared in the clouds, taking back the last trace of afterglow remaining on the earth.
