Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

Chapter 409: One day before the Flower Goddess’ birthday.

a week later.

During this week, Ying took Paimon out before dawn every day to various places in the Xumi Rainforest to help Lanaro, trying to find a way to celebrate the Worry-Free Festival and obtain the Weiye Fruit to save Lana.

On the other hand, Shao Yun seemed much more relaxed.

He wandered around Xumi City every day to kill time and wait for the upcoming birthday festival of the flower god.

As the days passed, the day before the birthday of the flower goddess finally arrived.

The entire Xumi City is decorated with colorful flowers everywhere.

Whether it is the streets, houses, or street lamp railings, colorful flowers are blooming everywhere, emitting bursts of charming fragrance.

Many residents of Xumi City were experiencing such a grand "Flower God's Birthday Festival" for the first time.

You know, since the House of the Faith has always strictly prohibited the private holding of large-scale sacrificial activities to gods, in the past, even in a busy place like the Grand Bazaar, people could only hold small celebrations of this kind.

But the people of Xumi City were naturally very happy to have the opportunity to have a lively time.

This morning, in the area of ​​Baoshang Street near the entrance of the Grand Bazaar.

Shao Yun was seen standing on a tall ladder, placing the last batch of decorative flowers in his hand into place.

After completing this work, he looked down at Dina Zedai who was standing at the bottom of the ladder and asked, "The flowers are all decorated, Miss Dina Zedai, do you think these arrangements are done?"

Dina Zedai looked up at the flower decorations arranged by Shao Yun, nodded slightly, and said, "Well, very good! Tomorrow is the Flower God's Birthday Festival. Thanks to Mr. Shao Yun for taking the trouble to help us arrange these beautiful flowers."

After hearing Dina Zedai's praise, Shao Yun simply stepped down the ladder.

He muttered to himself as he climbed down.

"You're welcome. After all, I have to finish what I start."

At this moment, Dixia came to Dina Zedai and said happily: "Miss, you asked me to distribute all the gifts to the patients with magic scale disease in Xumi City Health Home. Everyone is very happy."

When Dina Zedai heard the news, her face, which was already filled with joy, glowed even brighter.

"Great! Now we just have to wait for the Flower Goddess Birthday Festival tomorrow."

Then, Dina Zedai raised her head slightly, her eyes showing infinite longing, and she muttered to herself.

"I sincerely hope that Lord Little Jixiangcao can witness this celebration in person. We have specially built a float for this grand ceremony."

When Shao Yun heard the word "float", he stopped what he was doing and asked in astonishment, "Float?"

Who is the float for? Don't tell me it's that kid named Isaac!

Dina Zedai nodded excitedly and said anxiously, "That's right. Since the Little Auspicious Grass King can send his 'followers' to help me suppress the magic scale disease, then in my opinion, the probability of her appearing at the Flower God's Birthday Festival must be quite high!"

When Shao Yun heard that Dina Zedai still believed that the demon was a follower of the grass god, he became numb.

But now that things have come to this, there is nothing we can do but to make the best of it.

"Well, it's good to have something to look forward to."

At this moment, Ni Lu appeared in front of the three people with a sad face.

Seeing her friend's strange behavior, Dina Zedai hurriedly asked with concern: "What's wrong, Nilu, did anything happen?"

Nilu took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down a little before she began to explain.

"Dina Zedai, the situation is not optimistic... Our budget for this event has exceeded the budget, and we can't get enough money for the decorations needed to set the scene."

When Dina Zedai heard this, the smile on her face froze instantly.

After a long while, she came back to her senses as if awakened from a dream, and asked in disbelief: "What? Not enough money? How is this possible? Didn't we calculate it well before..."

Nilu pursed her lips slightly and explained with a slightly embarrassed look: "Originally our budget should have been enough, but a few days ago, we temporarily added a float project... At that time, we were so happy that we completely forgot to consider the budget issue, so now..."

When Dina Zedai heard that the float was over budget, she couldn't help but pinch her chin, sighed deeply, and said, "Alas, at that time we only thought about making it more grand and ignored the budget issue."

The current situation is that if you pay for the float, you cannot pay for the decorations needed to set the scene, and vice versa.

Dina Zedai pondered for a moment, and finally decided to use the old method to solve the problem.

"Look, I remember I have a few sets of clothes that I don't wear often. Maybe we can see if we can use them to make up for the gap in the budget."

Nilu also carefully counted her wallet, and then said with a hint of helplessness: "I still have some Mora here. Although it's not much, it's better than nothing."

Dishia looked at Nilu and Dinazedai who were worried about Mora. She also pursed her lips gently. After struggling inside, she finally made a difficult decision.

Then, Dixia waved her hand pretending to be relaxed and said to everyone: "Oh, everyone, I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with, so I will leave for a while."

Then, Dixia patted Shao Yun on the shoulder again and gestured to him: "Mr. Shao Yun, please help me take care of the young lady. I will be back soon."

Shao Yun knew that Dixia was going to sell his greatsword, and he did not stop her.

After all, why should I help organize the Flower Goddess Birthday Festival out of my own pocket? So I agreed.

"Ok, no problem."

……

After that, Dina Zedai returned to her home with Shao Yun and Ni Lu.

I picked out a few pieces of clothing and sold them.

Because time was tight and money was urgently needed, I sold the clothes in a hurry without much consideration...

Looking at these cobbled together Moras, Dina Zedai's face was filled with sorrow.

"This money is still not enough..."

Shao Yun looked at the worried Dina Zedai and Nilu and felt confused, so he asked: "Dina Zedai, why don't you just ask your family for some Mora? I mean, your family doesn't seem to be short of money."

Dina Zedai replied, "Because I held the Flower Goddess Festival secretly without telling my father, because the House of Ordinances has a rule that prohibits holding activities to celebrate the gods privately."

"If my father knew I was doing this, he would definitely not agree. So from the beginning, I didn't tell my father. If I go to him now, it would be bad..."

After listening to this, Shao Yun half-jokingly said, "So, aren't we doing something illegal?"

After listening to Shao Yun's words, Dina Zedai immediately defended herself, "This...if we really want to talk about breaking the law, then those who ignored the Little Auspicious Grass King's teachings are the ones who should be sent to prison the most!"

Looking at Dina Zedai's serious expression, Shao Yun quickly explained: "Don't worry, I was just joking. I don't really care about politics."

……

Afterwards, Shao Yun leaned against the door frame and calculated the time. He thought that Di Xia should have sold his greatsword soon, so he made a suggestion.

"We can't conjure Mora here just by staring at each other. I'll go find Dishia and come back to discuss it. Maybe she has some good ideas for raising money."

After hearing Shao Yun's suggestion, Dina Zedai also agreed.

"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Shao Yun."

……

Following the system's navigation instructions, Shao Yun wandered around and finally found Dixia's familiar figure in an inconspicuous corner of the Grand Bazaar.

At this moment, she is getting together with Dolly, carrying out a mysterious and unknown transaction...

In fact, Dixia was selling her two-handed sword "Reed Sea Beacon" to Dolly.

Dixia held the slightly old-fashioned flat-headed sword in front of Dolly, and asked expectantly, "Mr. Dolly, I have gone through so much trouble to meet you. Can you help me see how much my sword is worth?"

Dolly looked at Dishia who was eager to strike with the sword, and couldn't help feeling helpless and having a headache.

"Ms. Dixia, this is a legitimate business, not a pawnshop! If you really want to pawn your items, I'm afraid you'll have to find another place."

However, Dixia was obviously unwilling to be sent away so easily.

"Oh my, Mr. Dolly, please help me! I really need some money for an emergency, please..."

Faced with Dixia's earnest request, even though Dolly was extremely reluctant, she could not resist the other party's soft and hard begging offensive.

"Okay, okay, then I'll take a look first..."

So, she had to agree reluctantly and began to carefully examine the weapon in Dixia's hand.

After a while, Dolly frowned slightly and said thoughtfully: "Well... judging from the quality of this sword, how should I explain it..."

Dolly then drew a picture on Dishia's palm and gave her price.

"what do you think?"

Dixia looked at the price Dolly offered and an awkward smile appeared on her face.

"This... this price seems a bit low..."

After hearing what Dixia said, Dolly was slightly stunned, then she crossed her arms and thought for a moment, then she said, "Okay, I'll increase the price by another 10%, but it really can't be more!"

Dixia gently patted the blade of the Reed Sea Beacon, pursed her lips and explained: "This sword... this sword was handed down from the Red King era! Its value is far more than this."

When Dolly heard that the sword was passed down from the era of the Red King, she immediately realized that it was a precious relic.

Dolly rolled her eyes and said with interest, "Oh, it turns out to be a cultural relic? Of course I believe that you, the 'Fiery Lion', will not lie, but this requires professional knowledge to determine its true value."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "How about this? I'll contact my friend who specializes in identifying cultural relics in the evening and ask him to come and help identify them."

When Dixia heard that she had to wait until the evening, she immediately shook her head, looking embarrassed. She said anxiously, "There really isn't enough time. I need money urgently."

If it were anyone else, Dolly might have used this opportunity to lower the price, but since her caravan had collaborated with Dishia's mercenary group many times before, and considering that she would need Dishia's help to escort the caravan in the future, she couldn't go too far.

"So urgent? Well... since we have worked together before, I will be more generous. This price is already my limit."

As Dolly spoke, she gently drew a number on the palm of Dishia's hand with her finger, giving what she thought was a reasonable and final price.

Dixia stared with wide eyes at the price Dolly quoted in disbelief.

"Okay, deal!"

As she spoke, she handed her "Reed Sea Beacon" two-handed sword to Dolly, fearing that she would change her mind the next second.

Dolly was a "big sword loli" after all, and she easily took over the heavy two-handed sword in Dishia's hand.

Then, Dolly took out several bulging bags from the treasure bag that Alice gave her.

"Here, this is for you, Mora, keep it. We have some friendship, so your sword will be absolutely safe and reliable if you keep it with me."

Dolly said with a smile as she handed Mora to Dishia.

When Dixia heard that Dolly would not sell her greatsword, the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

She thanked him repeatedly and said many nice things: "Thank you so much, Dolly! I wish you, a great businessman, will make a lot of money and fortune every day!"

When Dolly heard Dixia's sincere blessing for her to make more money, she smiled so hard that she couldn't stop. She responded happily: "Haha, I love hearing that! Just relax, and leave your sword with me."
