Chapter 23: Genshin Impact: Start by building the empire of frost Chapter 23
The battle was a turbulent one, but the truth is that the country of Zhidong once again made the headlines in the world's news.
Also making the headlines with them were the executive officer Sanbing and the big businessman Ningguang.
According to the reports and images of reporters on the front line at the time, the two forces clashed over something called "Heart of God", and the palace of Hai Mo Ling was directly reduced to ruins because of this conflict.
The most unbelievable thing is the information revealed by both sides during the battle.
Sanbing, the sixth executive officer of the Fatui, is suspected to be a creation of God.
In response, the cardinal of the Holy Trinity claimed that there is only one god in the world, but it is definitely not the Thunder God mentioned by the other party.
But this statement was immediately refuted by others, and there was a mystical explanation that the Thunder God might really exist.
The mystic analyzed that the god mentioned by the Holy Trinity is a god of religious nature.
As for the name of Thor, it can be seen that he is one of the natural gods. There are legends of Thor in the myths of all countries in the world.
For example, Jupiter, the emperor of the Vestalia Empire, means "the king of all gods who controls thunder" in their national language.
Then the two quarreled with each other for several issues in a newspaper focusing on mysticism and theology.
Governments of other countries are paying attention to what the "Heart of God" is, which can attract the attention of the Kingdom of Winter and Ningguang.
Whether the scattered soldiers are the creation of gods, they can't tell the truth.
But the Kingdom of Winter represented by the scattered soldiers is the key.
There are also various news about the "Heart of God", which makes people unable to tell who is telling the truth. At this time, spies and forces from various countries have sneaked into Hai Mo Ling.
The rooster took advantage of this time to deal with the remaining nobles and recovered a lot of money, and the Kingdom of Winter also successfully issued its own currency.
There was no definite news about Sanbing after the confrontation with Ningguang that day. When they saw that Sanbing was gone, the power vacuum in Haimoling caused all the major forces to get restless.
At this time, Ningguang appeared in everyone's sight.
In the conference room of a high-end hotel in the wealthy area of Haimoling, Ningguang sat on a chair, and on both sides of her were representatives of the major forces in Haimoling.
A large part of them were invited here unwillingly.
But the woman named Keqing was too strong. Even if she was not as powerful as Sanbing, she was definitely not someone they could afford to offend.
What's more, Ningguang had a magic weapon in her hand that could make the arrogant Sanbing extremely afraid.
Ningguang was a businessman after all, and he was willing to invite them to talk, which was much more peaceful than that Sanbing.
With this idea in mind, they comforted themselves and came to the place where Ningguang invited them.
Ningguang looked around, and the people she saw lowered their heads and dared not look at her.
"I invite you all to come here this time so that you can help me, Ningguang, and make Haimo Ling safe and peaceful."
Ningguang clapped her hands, and several secretaries around her handed out several drafted documents and contracts to them.
"These are some of the terms I have drafted in the past few days. I hope that everyone will abide by them in the future, and it is also for the development of Haimo Ling."
The representatives of various forces took the papers and flipped through them, but their faces became worse and worse.
Especially for these underground forces, it is completely cutting off their roots.
For example, completely cracking down on illegal slave trade, banned drugs, casinos, brothels and other highly profitable industries.
"This is impossible!" One person said subconsciously, and then looked at Ningguang: "This will affect the survival of the entire Haimo Ling."
Others also agreed: "Miss Ningguang, you may not know how many people make a living from this."
"This is equivalent to destroying the rice bowls of millions of Haimo Ling people."
Ningguang smiled lightly. She was very familiar with this sentence. What kind of otherworldly version of "Millions of Canal Workers' Food and Clothing".
Hai Mo Ling has lost the royal family, and their government agencies are still running in front of them, but this operation can only be said to be a little better than the anarchic territory, but not much better.
The remaining underground forces and these officials are almost all in collusion.
A bunch of bastards, do you really think I am someone who can be fooled? It seems that these people will not obey if I don't teach them a lesson.
"Everyone, the purpose of inviting you here this time is not to discuss." Ningguang's eyes flashed with a sharp edge: "It's an order."
"Ningguang...you!!" One of them slapped Zhuo angrily and stood up.
Pointing at Ningguang, but immediately came back to his senses.
The one in front of them is the one they can't afford to offend.
Cold sweat broke out on his back instantly.
"Go on, keep talking, I'm listening." Ningguang looked at the other party with a smile: "Who is the biggest beneficiary of the slave trade? I don't think I need to say more."
"The Kingdom of Zhidong even prohibits the slave trade. Although I am not afraid of the power of the Kingdom of Zhidong, it is not my style to make enemies for nothing."
Ningguang's words undoubtedly made her attitude clear. She was going to bring Hai Moling into her own power.
She did not shy away from treating herself as the master of Hai Moling and her own territory, as if all this was taken for granted.
Although these underground forces were not convinced in their hearts, they had to swallow their anger due to the strength of the other party.
The man who had pointed at Ningguang fiercely just now immediately gave in and apologized to Ningguang: "Sorry, Miss Ningguang, I was impulsive."
Then he defended himself: "Even if the slave trade is abolished, why should the casinos and brothels be abolished as well?"
Ningguang had the urge to kill them all at this moment. How could she manage the Sea Moling with these insects?
Forget it, next time I will replace them with officials from the Liyue forces and the Qianyan Army, and then send them to the street lights.
"Casino? Brothel? You still have the nerve to mention these to me!" Ningguang frowned and said:
"There are tens of thousands of casinos in Haimoling, big and small, and some of them cheat and take back the winnings of gamblers."
"Without rules, there will be no order!"
"Even taxes are not paid!" Ningguang looked at them with burning eyes:
"From now on, cancel all casinos, and then set up several most formal casinos near the port to attract tourists."
"All those who want to open casinos can only be issued licenses by me in the future. Those without licenses are all illegal and must be cracked down on."
"The tax rate issue has been clearly stated in the terms and conditions given to you, please read it yourself."
"Are you trying to take over all casino businesses?" After reading the terms and conditions, some people still refused to accept it:
"I admit that you are powerful, but no matter how powerful you are, even if you kill us all, these casinos will not disappear."
"Why can't you understand..." Ningguang sighed and said, "Keqing, please."
The man wanted to say something, but he saw a lightning-fast figure throwing him out of the window and hanging him on the searchlight on the second floor outside the hotel wall.
