Genshin Impact: A Mortal's Ascension to Godhood
Chapter 84: The Name of the Reformist Patriots Will Live Forever
Li Tao actually doesn’t care that much about the safety of people on the continent of Teyvat.
Even if everyone followed him here, they couldn't interact with Li Tao and couldn't give him any emotional value. Li Tao was still alone in this world.
Despite this, Li Tao has lived a brilliant life of his own - he rose from obscurity, intervened in the Inazuma civil war as an outsider, took control of the power of Kaijima through a backdoor listing, and conspired with Yae Kamiko to purge the court and completely overturn the political order of Inazuma.
The story of him and Manye spread in the streets of Inazuma, and many people knew about the revenge story of the wandering samurai Manye and the story of the foreign monk Amami who stole the country. With the help of Shenzi, the residents of Shin-Inazuma talked about these stories with great relish and called Li Tao and Manye "the reformists of Shin-Inazuma".
It should be said that the reforms of the new shogunate were so effective that people soon forgot the high-handed rule of General Raiden and his morbid pursuit of eternity during his reign. Instead, they began to praise the good governance of the new government and shifted their attention to the details of the war - the heroic stories compiled by the Son of God.
In this series of legends about Meiji Restoration heroes, not only were Manyo and Li Tao's images adapted into righteous images of "risking their lives to admonish the general for the sake of the shogunate and the Thunder God", but even Aradaki Ikto, who participated in the battle, was pulled out as a role model.
Li Tao was very clear about Shen Zi's idea - he just wanted to divert people's attention and cover up the wrong things done by the shogunate. In short, he wanted to cover up the mess of Lei Movie.
But then again, it is a bit tricky to turn a traitor into a reformist. At least Li Tao himself is a bit ashamed.
Someone asked, didn't Li Tao claim to be the reformer of Inazuma? Why are you embarrassed about the certification issued by Shenzi?
Well, this is like when a person has a second-year syndrome, he would say that he is Ultraman Tiga, who turned into light and beat Gatanjea. This fantasy can only be boasted to good friends at most. But now that he has become successful, others bring it up again and say "Oh my god, you are really Ultraman Tiga", which is somewhat embarrassing.
However, Li Tao was somewhat famous in Inazuma. Many people wanted to see who this outlaw who had caused chaos in the entire western Inazuma was, but they had completely forgotten that the culprit of this chaos was still suppressed under the shrine.
It was normal for ordinary people not to know the identity of Sanbing. After all, Shenzi and Ying both intentionally concealed his true identity and only called him the culprit. If what he did was exposed, he would die a thousand times.

Rice Wife, Haiji Island.
Speaking of Kaiji Island, we have to mention that the primary industry of Kaiji Island is almost completely stagnant. Considering the historical background, this is because there are the remains of the demon god and the demon god's lair, the Fukushima Palace, underground of Kaiji Island. Although the remains of the demon god have formed a natural barrier on Kaiji Island, which can resist the thunder of the thunder god and intimidate some weak monsters and demons, it has also polluted the land of Kaiji Island with magic power, making it impossible to grow high-quality food, and the grain yield is also very low.
The consequence of insufficient soil is that it is difficult to recruit soldiers; even if you can barely recruit an army, they usually cannot have enough food. Without enough food, the soldiers will not be strong enough, and their talents will not be revealed. Even the most talented soldiers will not be able to exert their strength. This is why Kaijima had more defeats than victories against the shogunate army.
In order to change this situation, Li Tao adopted the military farming system, which allocated resources by concentrating the use of land and unifying military allocations, and indeed improved the combat effectiveness of the Haizhi Island troops to a certain extent.
However, this improvement is still limited. The combat effectiveness of the Haizhi Island troops was further increased after Li Tao led his troops to seize Bayun Island and reclaim land on Bayun Island. Although Bayun Island also suffered from the "disaster of evil spirits", its land was not polluted. The grain output on Bayun Island was normal, and some places even had a bumper harvest, which made the Haizhi Island soldiers and civilians, who were used to poverty, very happy.
In short, a large amount of food on Haizhi Island still comes from Bayun Island and sea trade imports.
Therefore, under Li Tao's suggestion and the on-site investigation of the Haizhi Island government, Haizhi Island carried out industrial structure reform and transformation. In fact, it transformed the primary industry into the tertiary industry, reduced the proportion of cultivated land, returned a large number of paddy fields with low yields to flat land, and attracted merchants to do business. As a result, a large number of vendors gathered here, shrines, squares, hotels and even schools were slowly built, and the economy of Haizhi Island began to take off.
This was the last thing Li Tao did for Haizhi Island. Afterwards, he resigned from all positions in Haizhi Island, returned the government to the government, and bid farewell to his friends in Haizhi Island in an ordinary izakaya.
In fact, it was mainly Xinhai and Goro, as well as some members of the Kaijima Special Operations Team. Everyone gathered together, fanning themselves around a small wooden table, eating barbecue, drinking sake, and reminiscing about the experience of fighting over the past year or so.
"Tianhai, your wine."
Xinhai absentmindedly poured a glass of wine for Li Tao, then sat opposite him, supporting his chin with both hands, looking at him melancholy.
Li Tao picked up the small white porcelain cup and gulped down the not-so-strong wine: "What's wrong, Master Military Advisor?"
Xinhai looked at Li Tao and whispered, "My mother and I both hope that you can stay in Inazuma and stay on Kaiji Island."
Goro, who was gnawing on a crisp bone, also carefully advised Manye who sat at the same table, "Yeah, it's okay for Tenkai, but Manye, why don't you stay here? You are also an Inazuma."
Manye smiled mysteriously and said, "You can't stop the wind from blowing. As long as the air is still flowing, the wind will not stop."
"He and I are both the wind of change. When things change here, we will blow to the next place..."
Li Tao nodded approvingly, agreeing with Wan Ye's statement.
For Manye, there was nothing here that he was attached to. It was normal for him to leave Inazuma and continue wandering.
Li Tao is even more like a rootless duckweed, and nothing here can hold him back.
He simply raised his glass, toasted everyone around him, and said, "If we are destined to meet again in the future, we will definitely meet again."
"People say that I am a reformist, but I wouldn't have achieved what I have today without your help. It should be said that you are the real reformists!"
"Good! Master Tianhai said it well!" A burst of applause broke out in the pub.
Li Tao narrowed his eyes, looked at the drunken soldiers and officers, and his friends who were either reluctant or carefree, and said with a smile: "The future and destiny of a country, a society, or an individual cannot be achieved by simply following the old path. The longer the history, the more we need to renew ourselves, surpass ourselves, and take control of ourselves - this is the meaning of 'renewing our destiny'."
"Today, I have become a patriot of the Restoration; tomorrow, you will be able to carry forward the ideas of the Restoration and make all of us Inazuma better."
"I hope that the stories of the reformists will be passed down forever in this land. It is no longer the story of me or a few others, but the story of all of us."
