Chapter 324: Longbu? Longbu Abandoned!
It must be said that in the kingdom of water, pure water elves travel very fast.
As soon as Fucaros left, he quickly arrived at Guizhong's location.
"It seems that the speed of the police response from Fontaine Court is quite good."
As soon as Fucaros showed his head, he heard a familiar voice teasing him.
After looking up and seeing the identity of the so-called suspect, Fucaros no longer felt nervous.
Then, while greeting Gui Zhong and disbanding the guards lurking nearby, she extended an invitation to Gui Zhong.
"Want to sit at my place?"
"Well, let's go." Gui finally did not refuse.
"But before I go, let me ask you one more question: how was I discovered?"
Hearing Guizhong's question, Fucaros first looked at Guizhong with a strange look.
After confirming that Guizhong really didn't expect this and was not teasing him, Fucaros answered Guizhong's question truthfully.
"Oh, I didn't expect it to be like this." After knowing the reason, Gui finally didn't dwell on it.
Now that we have found the problem, we just need to try to do better next time.
"Strange, I remember that Liyue had started trading with other countries, so why aren't there any Liyue people during this period?"
"Yeah, didn't you know?"
"I was not in Liyue during this period."
As they were talking, the two had already arrived at Fucaros's residence.
"Please come in first, I will talk to you in detail."
Fucaros brought out Fontaine's specialties to entertain Guizhong, and then talked to Guizhong about recent events.
……
"So, shortly after the last Liyue caravan returned, the nearest road between Liyue and Fontaine was blocked by a mountain torrent, so the trade process between the two countries was greatly prolonged?"
"For now, that's it."
Coincidentally, this natural disaster occurred on the border of Liyue.
The demon god on Fontaine's side was in a difficult position to take action, and after the department in charge of foreign trade on the Liyue side reported the matter, it was handed over to the construction department to handle.
Although Liyue's speed is indeed very fast, it will still take at least a year and a half to clear the trade route.
"Where is it?" Gui Zhong took out a map and asked Fucaros to point out the disaster-stricken area.
"Well... here." After a brief search, Fucaros pointed to a place with certainty.
"Longbu...I remember the tea from this place is quite good." Gui Zhong touched his head and recalled.
She only remembered that Changsheng moved here after the war between demons and gods.
Guizhong still remembers what Changsheng said before he left.
"Now that the Demon God War is over, let's leave this clinic to mortals to run."
Later, Changsheng fell in love with the quiet Chenyu Valley and settled down there.
On weekdays, I grow tea, herbs and so on.
After that, if no immortal suggested a gathering, he would rarely leave Chenyu Valley.
And this Longbu is a place in Chenyu Valley.
The word "Long" refers to the bright color of jade in general, and is a kind of affirmation of jade.
Longbu is naturally a place rich in jade.
Many of Liyue’s precious jade artifacts originated from this place.
"If I want to open up the road, I can do that at the same time." Gui Zhong thought.
"You're going to take action?" Fucaros was a little surprised.
"I just feel itchy." Gui Zhong was still studying the map, "But if I take action, this Longbu will probably have to be renamed Yilongbu."
If possible, Guizhong does not want to destroy such a precious land that produces a lot of jade and can drive the development of local GDP.
After all, jade is the leading industry in the local area.
If we act rashly like this, it is likely to disrupt the economic balance of Longbu.
"Uh... not that serious?" Fucaros was surprised. She didn't think as far ahead as Guizhong did.
"Look here." Gui Zhong pointed at the map, "If we can divert the water from Fontaine here, we can open up a waterway that can connect Liyue and Fontaine."
"Are you planning to change from land route to water route?" At this moment, Fucaros finally understood what Guizhong was thinking.
"Yes." Gui Zhong continued to explain, "Water transportation is much more convenient than land transportation, and the volume of a single transportation is also higher than that of land transportation."
Guizhong's hands kept gesturing on the map.
This map was created by Guizhong at a cost of a great deal of manpower and resources, and it records almost all the information in Liyue.
This also includes resources that are abundant in the local area.
Its level of detail is no less than that of some unethical navigation systems’ familiarity with road conditions.
It is possible to avoid important resource areas when opening up the mountain as long as there is detailed planning.
However, since it has not been updated for many years, Gui Zhong is not sure whether there are some resource points that were discovered after she left.
Therefore, we still need to contact the relevant departments in Liyue to resolve this matter.
"I can't think about it any further for now, so let's just leave it at that for now." Gui finally put away the map, intending to stop thinking about opening up the route.
After all, I have worked hard for Liyue for so many years and finally realized my dream of retiring to the second line.
Now I can't just look for something to do.
Just come up with an outline and let humans plan the rest.
In the end, I believe that they will do better than me.
Well, it’s not because I’m lazy and don’t want to do it.
"That's true." Fukaros agreed. "I haven't asked you yet, is there anything important that brought you to Fontaine?"
"Take me to find Egolia. This matter is not for you to decide."
After thinking it over again and again, Gui finally decided not to tell Fucaros about this for the time being.
It would not be a good thing for her to know this.
After all, she is not the water god, so it is up to Egolia to decide whether to tell her about this.
"Well, okay." Fucaros did not ask the reason, but took Guizhong and walked towards the center of Fontaine Garden.
