Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Three days passed in a flash. While waiting for Thomas's reply, Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng embarked on an in-depth exploration of the outlying island.

The three of them visited all the shops in the streets and alleys of the outlying island, but their desire for shopping was not aroused.

After all, most of the goods displayed in the shops here are from Mondstadt and Liyue, and they have long lost their novelty to the three of them.

On the third day after Thomas disappeared, at noon, the three of them took a walk after dinner and went shopping.

Paimeng noticed that the shop owners along the street all had frowns on their faces, and he muttered softly, "Hey, why do everyone look so unhappy? They weren't like this yesterday..."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun responded to Paimeng in a relaxed tone.

"Business is not going well. It happens all the time. Not everyone can make a steady profit like Ningguang."

After hearing this, Paimon nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, Ying patted Shao Yun's arm and asked, "By the way, Shao Yun, is there any news from Thomas?"

Shao Yun shook his head slightly, his fingers tapping lightly on the cowboy revolver at his waist.

"Not yet, but if he doesn't show up tonight, I'll have to find another way to get you out of here."

Ying's gaze followed Shao Yun's fingers and fell on the pistol, and a trace of doubt arose in her heart.

"Your method...wouldn't be..."

Shao Yun smiled slightly, realizing that Ying saw through his thoughts.

"You guessed right, what reward do you want?"

Ying frowned slightly and nudged Shao Yun with her elbow.

"Stop joking and be serious."

Shao Yun put away his smile and explained to Ying seriously: "My plan is this. If Thomas doesn't give us any news tonight, then you will change into the clothes I bought for you, and we will ride horses to break through the checkpoints and enter Ming Shen Island."

"After that, we will look for opportunities, for example, sneak into the castle tower in the dead of night to meet the Thunder God. Although this plan sounds fantastic, I am very confident."

After hearing this, Ying felt that this was impossible at first, but in the next second, she felt that this was a good idea.

"If someone else had proposed this plan of yours, I might have thought that person was crazy, but since you said it, I think it has a high chance of success."

At this moment, Jiulixu stumbled over, dragging his injured leg. When he saw Shao Yun, he stepped forward and shook Shao Yun's hand as if he had seen a savior, and said excitedly: "Mr. Shao Yun, Mr. Shao Yun, I finally found you."

Shao Yun noticed that Kulisu was limping and said, "Hello, President Kulisu, what's wrong with your leg?"

Jiulisu waved his hands. Now was not the time to worry about his injured leg. He said anxiously, "My leg is not important. I have something very important to talk to you about. Can I have a moment to talk?"

Shao Yun was stunned and pointed at himself, not understanding what was going on.

"Ah? Talk to me?"

Jiulixu nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, it's urgent! I won't let you work for nothing, I will definitely pay you."

Shao Yun looked at his haggard face, and when he heard that there would be a reward, he thought it would do no harm to listen to it. He had not agreed to it, and if it was too troublesome, he could also refuse.

"Ying, Paimon, wait for me."

Afterwards, Jiulixu dragged his injured leg and took Shao Yun to the corner of the street. Seeing that there was no one around, he fell to his knees and begged, "Mr. Shao Yun, I really have no other choice. I beg you, please help me!"

Seeing such a great honor upon approaching, Shao Yun quickly held onto Kurisu's arm and pulled him up.

"President Kurisu, you...hurry up, hurry up, let's discuss this matter properly, there's no need to kneel down right away!"

Jiulixu stood up, held Shao Yun's hand tightly, and cried, "Mr. Shao Yun, there is no one around here, I will just say what I want to say."

Shao Yun nodded slightly: "Then tell me, I'll listen."

Kulisu couldn't stop his tears from flowing out, and said, "I heard about your deeds from a Liyue merchant who just came to the island. You must help us!"

Shao Yun was stunned, and immediately suspected Thomas, then asked: "Did the merchant from Liyue really say that? If you lie to me, I will be angry!"

Kurisu nodded and roughly repeated what he had heard from the merchant.

"Really? This morning I was chatting with a merchant from Liyue, and we talked about you. He said that you are a distinguished guest of the Seven Stars of Liyue, and your status is very honorable. And you are very enthusiastic. You once gave up Yimora to help a pair of children get revenge! You killed the murderer who killed their mother. You have the means, you are a hero..."

Shao Yun didn't want to listen to these long speeches, so he stopped Jiulisu and said directly: "President Jiulisu, I believe you, so don't be polite. What do you want me to do for you?"

Kurisu sniffed and said, "Can you come with me to see the Kanjo Bugyo, Lord Hiiragi Shinsuke?"

Hiiragi Shinsuke? Isn't that old man the head of the Kanjo Bugyo? I remember that he has been bribed by the Fatui to work for the lady. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about him.

"Why do you want me to go with you? Please explain clearly."

Kurisu expressed his thoughts.

"I think that with you by my side, Lord Hiiragi Shinsuke should give you some face so that I can discuss the tax with him. If we continue to collect taxes like this, all the foreign merchants on the island will go bankrupt!"

After listening to this, Shao Yun pondered for a moment and asked a key question.

"What will I get?"

Shao Yun was not afraid that Hiiragi Shinsuke would follow the lady's words and come to kill him. After all, his strength was there. It would be okay to go there, but he couldn't work for nothing.

Jiulixu thought carefully for a while and promised Shao Yun: "As long as you go, whether you succeed or fail, I... I can give you 372,884 Mora."

This money is already the last liquidity of Kulisu.

In order to ask Shao Yun for help, he took the risk and threw out a bigger chip.

"If Lord Hiiragi Shinsuke shows mercy to us for your sake and allows us merchants to have a break, I can make the decision. From now on, all members of the International Chamber of Commerce will give you 30% of the profits from every business they make. How about that!"

Just over 300,000 Moras could not impress Shao Yun, after all, he had more than 50 billion on him.

But this 30% profit made Shao Yun tempted. It was much more than what the hacker with the wasting disease got. He would do nothing in the future and just lie in bed, and someone would give him money. Who would complain about the little money!

Jiulixu saw Shao Yun was silent for a long time, then he knelt on the ground again, begging with a bit of despair.

"Mr. Shao Yun, I will kowtow to you, as long as you can help me."

Seeing this, Shao Yun helplessly helped Kurisu up again.

"President, please stand up. Tell me, when are you going to see Shinsuke Hiiragi?"

Shao Yun plans to run away with Ying and Paimeng tonight. If I go to meet him tomorrow, I can't agree to that.

Kurisu replied eagerly, "Now! There is no time to lose. The Kanjo Bugyo will close down any store that does not pay enough taxes at any time."

Shao Yun pondered for a moment, finally nodded, and agreed: "Okay, I am moved by your sincerity and your generous reward. But I want to make it clear that when you negotiate, I will only stand behind you to add a little momentum to you. As for how to negotiate, it is up to you."

Jiu Lixu was relieved when he heard this, and he patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Mr. Shao Yun, leave this matter to me!"

Afterwards, Shao Yun informed Ying and Paimeng of the matter.

After hearing this, Paimeng scratched his head in confusion and asked in confusion: "Shao Yun, didn't you avoid the affairs of the International Chamber of Commerce before?"

Shao Yun smiled slightly and explained: "This is a different time. They are sincere. If I go there, I can earn more than 300,000 Mora. After success, I will make a lot of money. How can I miss such a good thing?"

Ying shrugged and asked curiously, "But then again, you don't seem to be short of money, do you?"

Shao Yun stroked his chin, pondered for a moment and said, "That's true, but who would complain about having too much money? When you were in Liyue, didn't you, Ying, run all over the mountains and plains just for the little commission money from the association?"

When Ying heard this, she suddenly understood.

"Well, you have a point..."

Shao Yun waved his hand, signaling the two not to worry.

"You guys go back to the International Chamber of Commerce first, I'll be back when I'm done."

"Bye!" Ying and Paimeng waved goodbye to Shao Yun and left the scene.

Shao Yun turned around and looked at Kurisuna's injured thigh, and asked with concern: "By the way, your leg..."

Kurisu waved his hand and explained to him in a casual manner how his leg became lame.

"Here's what happened. Yesterday I tried my best to raise more than 300,000 Mora. It was originally intended to be the bail for Harrison. Unexpectedly, Master Sheng was dissatisfied with the small amount of money and wanted to kick me out. I wanted to discuss it with him, but he just chopped me. Alas, my words are not taken seriously...

After hearing this, Shao Yun couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, poor Harrison..."

……

Shao Yun followed the staggering steps of Kurisu and came to the breathtaking courtyard of the Kanjo Bugyo Hiiragi family.

The scene before my eyes was like an exquisite painting slowly unfolding.

On the wide steps, a majestic Inazuma samurai stood every five steps.

The tall stone wall isolates the noise from the outside world, and the family crest of the Hiiragi family is carefully carved on the gate of the courtyard.

Stepping into the courtyard of the Hiiragi family, you can see the servants of the Hiiragi family moving among the flowers, carefully trimming the grass. At the same time, they also remember to sweep the porch, ensuring that every inch of land is clean and spotless.

Just when the two were about to go meet Hiiragi Shinsuke, Katsuie's voice suddenly came.

"stop!"

He blocked the way of Shao Yun and Kulisu with a fierce look, and said to Kulisu sarcastically: "President Kulisu, why are you here again? I made it very clear that Harrison will not be released without enough money."

Hearing this, Kurisu forced a bitter smile on his face. He respectfully requested, "Sir Katsuie, I came here specifically to see Sir Hiiragi. Please be flexible."

But Shengjia treated them like beggars, waving his hands and driving them away, saying, "Go away, go away! The master of the family doesn't have time to see little people like you. You'd better hurry up and prepare the taxes you should pay!"

Seeing this, Kurisu felt helpless. Just as he was about to explain further, he was unexpectedly pushed to the ground by Katsuie.

"roll!"

The fall tore the wound that had healed with great difficulty again, causing Kurisu to grimace in pain, but he gritted his teeth and endured the pain without making a sound.

Seeing this, Shengjia became even more complacent. He walked towards Shao Yun arrogantly, wanting to use the same trick again.

But Shao Yun was no ordinary man. He grabbed Shengjia's fingers with his backhand and twisted them hard, and there was a crisp sound of broken bones coming from Shengjia's fingers.

Shengjia screamed in pain, his facial features twisted into a ball, and he roared angrily: "You dare to hurt me? You are looking for death!"

But Shao Yun was not shaken by this. He increased the strength of his hands and said coldly: "Go and call your family master out. We have something important to discuss with him."

After saying that, he waved his hand lightly and Shengjia was thrown out.

Shengjia staggered back a dozen steps before he could steady himself.

He covered his injured finger and glared at Shao Yun angrily, but under Shao Yun's deep and cold gaze, he felt unprecedented fear and powerlessness.

In the end, he could only reluctantly utter a harsh remark.

"Kurisu! Just wait for me!", then fled into the Hiiragi family's residence in a panic.

Looking at Shengjia's departing back, Shao Yun shook his head gently and muttered to himself: "A useless person who only bullies the weak and fears the strong..."
