Heidi watched as everyone else signed their names carefully, and she almost signed on impulse as well.

After all, he didn't have much reputation left, and it was unknown how much reputation he could earn in the future, but Mora's expenses were real.

"There's still a week left, so let's go back and ask other people." Heidi is a person who tends to listen to opinions.

"I want to go back and think about it," Heidi said.

"Of course." The man with glasses was polite and confident. He sent Heidi to the door and said, "You are welcome to come back anytime."

"Manager, do we need to hire another one?" a clerk asked.

The man with glasses glanced at Heidi's back and said, "No need. No one will be against Maura. She will come back."

……

Heidi plans to go to Momang Palace to ask for the specific information of this ship and whether it is legal and compliant. It would be best if she could consult some specific information on the ship.

On the way to Momang Palace, there is a temporary market set up. This is for Yingyingyue to make everyone feel involved. An area is marked out on one side of the street for everyone to set up stalls.

The rent for this type of market is not high, so many people will put out their own little gadgets to sell in order to experience the fun of doing business. The variety of goods is rich, so there are many people coming to see them.

Heidi was preoccupied with something, so she glanced at the things as she passed by.

Suddenly, a red ponytail made her stop.

She looked at the man, dressed in Mondstadt noble attire, with dazzling red hair and a delicate white face. At this moment, he was walking slowly in the market, as if he was just strolling.

"Master Diluc," Heidi thought to herself, "He is the richest boss in Mondstadt, so he must know about the ship."

But how do I go up and ask?

If you ask directly, no normal person will tell you.

I don't have any information to exchange.

Leosley had dinner with him, how about asking him for help? It's not like we're talking about cooperation, so it's better not to bother the Duke with such a small matter as a job.

Hatice thought about it and decided to approach slowly.

She stopped at each stall for 3 seconds, pretending nothing had happened as she moved towards Diluk, and stopped at a stall selling antiques.

The stall owner was a middle-aged man who was selling the items on his stall.

“This is a treasure I dug up in the Red King’s Mausoleum. The Red King used it to hold wine.” He picked up a plum vase and handed it to Diluk.

Diluk took it and looked at it. "Did you dig it from the Red King's Tomb?"

"Of course. Look, there's desert writing on it. It's absolutely true." The other person said, pointing at the boy at the bottom of the bottle.

Heidi didn't dare to get too close, so she just glanced at it. She thought the bottle was just big, and the pattern on it was similar to those bottles and jars in the desert. She couldn't see what was special about it.

Diluk took it in his hand, looked at it for a while, and asked, "How much?"

The other party saw that Diluc was well-dressed and looked like a rich man, so he held up two fingers and said, "200 million Mora."

Heidi's eyes widened. How dare they sell such a thing at such a high price? They really think people are fools.

"It's okay, it's not expensive." Diluk said expressionlessly.

It's so easy to cheat rich people out of their money. Heidi looked at the contract in her hand with mixed feelings.

She took a deep breath and moved closer. "Let me see this bottle."

Diluk smiled and handed it over.

Heidi took it, looked at the bottom of the bottle, and laughed, "Shopkeeper, you are too shameless. Do you recognize the desert pattern on the bottom of this bottle? And you dare to sell it for 200 million Mora."

"Little girl, don't ruin my business. Of course, what's written on it is the name of the person who made this bottle and the time." The middle-aged man looked at Heidi with disdain, then turned around and nodded to Diluk in a flattering manner, "Don't worry, the things used by the Red King are all fired in special kilns and have historical records, so they are definitely worth collecting."

"You are such a liar. The desert writing on it says 'Made in Fontainebleau'. Where can you find the history?" Heidi was speechless.

"..."

The middle-aged man remained silent, because these goods were indeed imported from the Fontaine factory.

When the onlookers came up, he got angry and picked up another small vase and threw it at Heidi, "You damn girl, you're ruining my business."

“What are you doing?” Diluk grabbed the man’s hand and said, “Let’s talk it over.”

The middle-aged man wanted to struggle, but he was gently squeezed the next second. He screamed and the vase in his hand fell to the ground and broke. "Master, I, I will talk to you nicely."

"Hmph." Diluk let go and looked at him with disdain.

"Hmph, profiteer." Heidi glared at him.

Then he looked at Diluk, "Thank you, my name is Heidi."

"Yeah." Diluk responded calmly and asked, "Miss Heidi knows Desert Language. How much do you think his bottle is worth?"

"It's probably only 1 Mora at most. It's so big after all." Heidi said a number.

Diluk turned to look at the middle-aged man, "Are you satisfied with this number?"

The man didn't dare to say anything more, thinking that this amount could pay off his investment, he nodded immediately.

"Here's 50,000 Mora." Diluk threw it on the table. "Buy this bottle, and the rest will be your medical expenses."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Don't you want the bottle anymore?" Heidi asked.

Diluk turned around and said, "Miss, please help me smash it."

"Oh." Heidi picked up the bottle, threw it on the ground, and watched the bottle break into pieces in an instant. "Well, Mora's voice is really crisp."

Diluk ignored him and continued walking forward.

It was difficult for Heidi to catch up with him, after all, Diluc didn't even introduce his name, and it was obvious that he didn't want to have anything to do with him.

People still need to know what's best for them. Heidi smiled self-deprecatingly and continued to walk towards Mo Mang Palace.

Suddenly there was a loud bang and an earthquake.

Heidi tilted and fell into the flowers beside her.

There were constant cries for help and sounds of panic.

Heidi climbed up from the flowers and looked at the situation. Thick smoke and dust were rising from the direction of the market. The market, which was bustling just a moment ago, was now full of people fleeing in panic.

"Was there an explosion somewhere?" Heidi didn't think much about it and ran in the direction where the smoke was the thickest.

When we got closer, we saw that several supporting pillars on the lower level had been blown off. One third of the market had collapsed. Some people had fallen down, while others were grabbing onto the exposed steel bars, making their last struggle.

Heidi took out a gauze scarf from her backpack, covered her nose, walked into the smoke and dust, and began to help save people.

Faintly, in the crumbling fractured zone in the front, a person with a red ponytail was pulling people up.

Someone shouted in the smoke and dust: "Hey, red-haired boy, the road ahead is about to break off. Come back, it's too dangerous. Wait for the robot to come."

The other party ignored him and just pulled him up.

The fault zone was originally a place selling toys, so there were many children and women in that area.

I saw children being pulled up one by one, but the children were timid. When they came from the fracture zone, there was a section of road with only thin steel bars. The children who had just experienced the explosion were a little panicked at the moment. They grabbed the hem of Diluk's clothes and dared not come over.

This delayed him from pulling people up, and it would also be dangerous if too many people stood in that position.

Heidi looked at the people waiting for the robot and sighed helplessly.

He quickly jumped over and helped carry the children over one by one.

The two people worked together, and soon all the people under the steel bars were rescued. The rest who fell and were injured or hit by something were the responsibility of the rescue team.

After doing all this, Diluk nodded to Heidi, thanked her, and left.

Heidi watched him leave quietly, and followed him as if possessed.

"Miss, how long do you want to stay with me?" Diluk suddenly stopped and asked.
