Zhongli’s eyes immediately locked onto the gourd hanging on Shen Qin’s waist. He just felt a familiar power fluctuation from it for a moment.

Keqing exclaimed: “You learned Grandma Ping’s space magic?”

Sandang was also surprised, and then he remembered that Shen Qin said last night that the research had been completed, so he asked tentatively: “Is this the result of your research last night?”

Hearing her words, Keqing and Ningguang immediately thought of Shen Qin borrowing the alchemy workshop yesterday.

Results were achieved in just one night, is this Shen Qin’s speed?

He is so fast!

Shen Qin took off the gourd hanging around his waist and said with a smile, “Yes, this is a gadget similar to the Chen Ge pot that I made using the Space Immortal Technique. I call it the Chen Ge Gourd.”

“Why are the names the same…” Keqing was halfway through her words when she realized what was going on and was speechless, “The gourd in the gourd?”

“Yes.”

“Haha, you really have a bad taste.” Zhongli shook his head helplessly and gave his suggestion, “Why not call it Qiankun Gourd to avoid confusion with that person’s Chenge Pot.”

“Then it’s called Qiankun Gourd. However, its appearance is not limited to the gourd style. It can also be derived into amulets, bracelets, rings, necklaces and other styles.”

Shen Qin put the luggage back into the gourd and said to Keqing with a smile: “I have basically mastered the technology of space magic now. If I continue to study it, it will not be difficult to realize the overall westward migration of the ancient ruins, so they are not a problem!”

Keqing was still immersed in the shock brought by Shen Qin’s mastery of space magic. When she heard his words, she nodded subconsciously: “Then I have no problem. Whatever the boss says is what I will do.”

This is somewhat outrageous. Immortal magic has existed in Liyue for thousands of years, and I have never heard of anyone being able to master it through alchemy. According to the intelligence, it has been less than two days since he got the Qiankun Mustard Seed Talisman from Grandma Ping, and he has already researched it?

At this moment, her attitude towards Shen Qin turned into admiration.

Even Zhongli praised him: “You are amazing to be able to study the space magic so thoroughly! I agree with your plan.”

Ningguang exhaled and looked at him deeply. “Your plan is perfect. I have nothing to add. Let’s continue according to your design!”

Now the human camp headed by the Seven Stars and the immortal camp headed by the Emperor have agreed to Shen Qin’s plan, so he can let go and do a great job.

“In that case, I will have Academy City’s engineering team come to Liyue. But because the scale of the development is so large, we will need the assistance of Liyue’s local engineering team and workers, as well as a large number of Mora…”

Ningguang waved her hand and said, “Manpower, material resources, Mora… You don’t need to worry about these issues. We, the Seven Stars, will help you solve them! As for Academy City and your compensation, we will pay you twice the market price, as long as you can complete the development of Guiliyuan as soon as possible!”

Keqing’s face was tense: “We, the Seven Stars, will take care of all the financial issues.”

Shen Qin gave a thumbs up. The Seven Stars of Liyue were truly wealthy. When they said that the Seven Stars had bought everything, it meant that the Seven Stars would use their personal assets to develop Guiliyuan and would never touch the people of Liyue or the country’s assets.

The Seven Stars of Liyue are rich enough to rival a country, and this is no joke.

If Inazuma didn’t have Ying, Shenzi, Xinhai and other people, Nanahoshi’s wealth could probably buy out the entire Inazuma…

Shen Qin contacted Diluk directly on the communication line and started to call for help.

Now that the first phase of Academy City’s construction has been completed, several engineering teams have become idle and are not very busy, so they can be transferred over to work on the Guiliyuan project.

After their work was roughly completed, the Academy City had basically been built, and the remaining engineering teams came to Liyue to take over, forming a seamless connection.

“So, does Klee have something to blow up again?” Klee asked Shen Qin excitedly.

Large-scale infrastructure construction cannot avoid blasting work, so she keenly realized that it was time for her to legally blow up fish, mountains and Teyvat!

Flames are toys, explosions are art, and art is Patrick Star!

“That’s right, Captain Ziggs will also bring the demolition team to Liyue, and the demolition mission will be handed over to you then!” Shen Qin rubbed her hair.

“You can totally trust Klee!” Klee patted her chest.

One day, the reputation of the Red Devil will spread throughout the seven kingdoms of Teyvat!

The Jade Pavilion flew back to its original location, and Shen Qin and his team were preparing to return to Liyue Harbor to start their work. But before leaving, Zhongli stayed behind, saying that he had something important to discuss with Ningguang and Keqing.

Shen Qin raised his eyebrows. Is Zhongli going to play a confession game?

After the “Emperor was assassinated” in the game, in order to avoid further chaos in Liyue Harbor, Zhongli quickly told Qixing in a dream about his plan to fake his death and escape.

But the Seven Stars’ reaction at the beginning was definitely real, and it deceived ordinary people in Liyue and a toy salesman from the Kingdom of Winter who was kept in the dark from beginning to end.

So what if Zhongli confessed to Qixing in advance and jointly planned a drama of “Emperor’s assassination”?

Can we dig deeper into the enemies lurking in Liyue Harbor?

Shen Qin was looking forward to this great show.

I am also looking forward to the reaction of Cat-Headed Keqing when she finds out that the Emperor is planning to abdicate and let others take over.

“Shen Qin, is our trip over like this?” Shatang felt a little disappointed. She was looking forward to leaving work behind and enjoying a real trip with him.

“Hmm…” Shen Qin thought for a moment, then asked her with a smile, “If you were asked to choose between traveling and doing research, which one do you think would make you happier?”

“Doing research,” she answered immediately, then added in her mind – leaving you aside.

Shen Qin said: “We have just moved to a new place to do research. In our spare time, we can also go sightseeing and shopping in Liyue. We can do research and travel at the same time. Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Sandang’s eyes widened, feeling that something was wrong but unable to put his finger on it. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he was right.

“I will ask the engineering team to move some of our alchemy equipment over when they come. I will continue to improve Guiliyuan’s development plan and study space magic. You can do some biological research, and Klee will follow the demolition team to play with bombs. We all have a bright future.”

Keli said righteously: “Brother Shen Qin, Keli is not playing with bombs! I am here to carry out blasting operations. You can call me the captain of the blasting team!”

“No problem, Captain Klee!”

Then he complained in his heart: I liked playing with bombs when I was a kid, and now I’m grown up, I want to play with nuclear bombs, right?

He had no doubt that she would be able to make explosives with power comparable to that of nuclear bombs in the future. After all, there were still many mysterious powers on Teyvat, such as the Shadow Core and the power of the evil spirit within it. Isn’t this definitely a nuclear power plant and nuclear radiation?

Chapter 243 Slime Factory

Shen Qin and Keli both have clear things to do, but Shatang doesn’t know what kind of biological research she wants to do. After all, sometimes research also requires inspiration.

She told Shen Qin about her confusion. He thought for a moment and asked, “Have you ever studied elemental life? For example, the most common slimes of various attributes in Teyvat.”

“Strictly speaking, slimes do not belong to the category of normal organisms…but I was curious about whether they have biological structures in their bodies, and I studied them for a while. Do you want me to study them? But I don’t understand what research value they have.” Sugar said puzzledly.

“The bodies of slimes should be made of pure elemental forces, and they have also evolved a variety of elemental abilities. For example, fire slimes can breathe fire and can set objects they touch on fire. Rock slimes can crystallize and condense the elemental forces of rock into rocks. Electric slimes can discharge electricity…”

As Shen Qin spoke, a smile appeared on his face that even Sandang felt was very perverted: “Their energy comes from the elemental force in the air, which is endless, so we can develop a project to use the ability of slimes to obtain the resources we want!”

“Fire slimes can continuously release heat, rock slimes can condense into solid bricks and stones, water slimes can produce the purest water, and grass slimes can shorten the maturation cycle of plants… The most important point is that they are a sustainable resource! It’s a great profit with no investment!”

It is said that slimes were originally gelatinous and harmless creatures without any attributes, but the elemental power on Teyvat could easily settle in their bodies. As a result, the slimes that absorbed the elemental power were divided into different slime groups according to their different attributes, and the slimes without attributes became extinct.

Attribute slime not only inherits the advantage of rapid reproduction of slime, but also can absorb elemental power from the air to speed up its growth. A big slime can split into a nest of more than four small slimes, and the small slimes can grow into healthy big slimes after two days.

Fortunately, slimes have basically no intelligence, and can easily transform back into the elemental force between heaven and earth due to some miraculous accidents.

For example, when the wind slime is inflated, it often hits the sharp branches in the air and then disappears.

When water slime and fire slime meet each other, they will be eliminated.

The grass slime got into the fire of the flaming flower and caught fire…

At the same time, they are at the bottom of the food chain in Teyvat and will be hunted by monsters such as Hilichurls and Trickery, so their numbers are still at a controllable level.

Hearing that Shen Qin was going to exploit even the slime, Sugar quickly moved away from him and said vigilantly: “It seems that what Paimon said is right, you are an evil capitalist!”

“Don’t listen to the nonsense of that white floating spirit.” Shen Qin rolled his eyes, “Just tell me if there is any hope or not.”

Sugar thought about it carefully, nodded and said, “Slimes are almost endless. If we use them, we can indeed solve a large part of the resource problem.”

Keli, who was listening to their conversation, suddenly interrupted: “Brother Shen Qin, Sister Sandang, do you want to lock up the cute slimes and make them work?”

Shen Qin asked, “Keli, don’t you like to lock them up?”

If she raised objections, then the plan could be abandoned directly. Shen Qin would never do anything that would displease her.

“No, what Klee meant is that slimes are so cute… can we get a few Klees? Sister Xiangling said that slimes with different properties can be used to make many different flavors of food…”

As she spoke, saliva began to flow from the corners of her mouth.

Shen Qin, Sugar: “…”

As expected of you!

Shen Qin handed her the Qiankun Gourd, taught her how to use it, and said, “Use it to catch slimes…”

At this moment, he thought of an interesting space prop, and added with a smile: “Later, I will provide you with another interesting prop that can be used to capture various monsters.”

As Academy City’s engineering team arrived in Liyue, the people of Liyue Harbor had a vague sense that something big was about to happen. Many people gathered on Guili Plain, often appearing in ancient ruins and open spaces in the wild with some equipment whose uses were unknown.

Every day, many transport trucks drive into Guiliyuan fully loaded with goods, but when they leave, the goods on the trucks have disappeared.

Some well-informed people have already learned that Liyue officials are planning to develop Guiliyuan, and the one in charge of this matter is the recently emerging Academy City Engineering Team.

Everyone can see the benefits that Academy City has brought to several shareholders. Now seeing that Gui Liyuan is also going the way of Academy City, those big forces can no longer sit still. They have used their connections to contact Yue Haiting, and some even found Diluk.

However, the development of Guiliyuan is related to the development of Liyue in the next few decades or even hundreds of years. The Seven Stars will not allow other forces to interfere, so they strongly rejected all investment requests from all forces and officially issued an announcement –

Liyue is about to develop Guiliyuan and build a second large city outside of Liyue Harbor. All development projects have only one investor, the Liyue government. At the same time, the development and construction of the entire Guiliyuan will be fully responsible by the Academy City. If there are organizations or companies in Liyue willing to participate in the construction work under the leadership of the Academy City, the Liyue government will provide certain subsidies.

“It seems that the Liyue Seven Stars want to cultivate and support a group of local enterprises through the development of Guiliyuan. This is a good plan.” Diluk sneered.

At this moment, the five giants of Academy City (Shen Qin, Sucrose, Diluke, Albedo, and Lisa) are holding an online meeting.

The construction and production of Academy City headquarters are already on track. Their next focus will be the development of Guiliyuan. After all, the reward offered by Liyue is not low – 20% of the total development cost!

This 20% is an additional payment to Academy City. The salaries of the engineering team, the manufacturing costs and depreciation of engineering equipment, and the research and development funds for new technologies have all been included in the development costs and paid by the Liyue Seven Stars.

Academy City made a 20% net profit! It also produced a batch of engineering equipment and new technologies.

“Since we have already made so much money, we don’t have to worry about these little things.” Lisa didn’t care about it at all. “My little cutie, I’ll leave my civil engineering juniors to you. You must train them well!”

Shen Qin gave a thumbs up: “Lisa, those people are really good. They helped me a lot when doing urban planning and saved me a lot of effort!”

“Shen Qin, you have the most things to do right now. Should I come over to help you?” Albedo was concerned about the pressure on Shen Qin.

He had to study the space magic and find a way to move the ancient ruins to the west intact, and at the same time he had to coordinate the construction plan of the new city. If he didn’t want to hold back the engineering team, he had to rush.

Chapter 244 Monster Elf

“No need. I have already found two people to help with the relocation of the ancient ruins to the west. It should be done in the next two days. I will send you two blueprints of new products. You can study them. I think one of them… should be quite interesting, hehe.”

Shen Qin operated the terminal and sent the information on space magic technology, the drawings of the Qiankun Gourd, and the semi-finished drawings of a new product to Albedo.

Albedo took a quick look and said in surprise, “I’ve heard of Space Magic and Qiankun Gourd a long time ago, but this Qiankun Poké Ball… has the effect of forcibly locking a monster below the leader level in the space of the ball. It seems to be able to play a miraculous role in battle!”

“I think its greater role should be in entertainment.” Shen Qin said seriously, “You see, people who hold Poké Balls can go out into the wild to capture powerful monster Pokémon, and then come to a specially designed battle gym to compete with other Poké Ball holders to see who has captured the more powerful Pokémon.”

“When the time comes, we will hold a Monster Pokémon competition and broadcast it live in the community. At the same time, we will collect a wave of ticket money from the scene, and then take half of the ticket money as rewards for the champion, runner-up, and third place. We can also earn half of the ticket money…”

“Wait!” Lisa interrupted him helplessly. “Diluk is right. You are still one step ahead in being a profiteer. You only harvested leeks from humans before, but now you don’t even let monsters go!”

Diluk replied silently, “And yesterday I received an application for research funding from Sucrose, saying they want to develop a ‘technology for continuously obtaining resources through slimes’. This technology makes me feel for the slimes. Surely it wasn’t proposed by the kindhearted Sucrose? You want to exploit even the slimes!”

Albedo and Lisa both widened their eyes in shock. This was the first time they heard of this, but just from the name of the project, putting themselves in the Slime’s perspective, they already felt very painful.

Slime is not a human, but Shen Qin is a real dog!

In the end, Shen Qin’s idea of ​​holding a “Monster Pokémon Competition” was unanimously killed in the cradle by the other four, but no one objected to the development of slime application technology.

After all, they are not real slimes and cannot truly empathize with others.

Shen Qin still wanted to fight for it: “I still think the Monster Pokémon competition…”

The three people who were far away in Academy City hung up the video at the same time. Sandu laughed secretly, and when Shen Qin glared at him, he quickly returned to his laboratory.

Shen Qin sighed, feeling sorry that the monster Pokémon could not shine in Teyvat.

At this moment, the person in charge of the alchemy workshop came to inform him that there was a young man and an old woman looking for him at the door.

It’s old man Zhongli and Ping’er! Shen Qin’s eyes lit up, and he immediately came to the door of the workshop to greet them.

“Grandma Zhongli and Grandma Ping!” Shen Qin greeted them.

Grandma Ping praised him happily: “Shen Qin, I have heard from Zhongli that your control over space magic has surpassed mine. I didn’t expect that it took me thousands of years to accumulate these skills, but you only took a few days to learn them!”

“Grandma, I stand tall because I stand on the shoulders of giants. Without your thousands of years of accumulation, I would not be able to achieve success overnight.” Shen Qin said with a smile, “What’s more, I am far inferior to you! I have to ask grandma for help when I encounter a problem that I can’t solve!”

“You are looking for us, probably about the relocation of ancient ruins?” Zhong Kai said.

He has also been paying attention to the development project of Guiliyuan recently. The port of the new city, the auxiliary city located at the transportation hub, and the port across the sea from Guyun Pavilion have all started construction, but only the Guiliji ancient ruins have not seen any movement. Only a group of people go in and out there every day, which is very mysterious.

“That’s right, why don’t we go directly to the scene and take a look. I’ll tell you the current situation…”

Shen Qin drove the two to Guiliji and explained the situation to them along the way.

He asked the engineering team to create a terrain roughly the same as Guiliji in the area west of Guiliyuan where the ancient relics were to be placed, striving to keep the ancient relics as original as possible after they were moved there.

He originally planned to collect the entire Guili Collection as a whole into a super-large space bubble at one time, but the space technology he currently possessed was not capable of covering such a large area at one time.
