第286章 凝光:1句章,我为1个男人花了1.8亿摩拉
The early morning sunrise flickered with a faint divine light. At this moment, on the streets of Liyue Harbor during the day, Ye Li was wandering around aimlessly with a piece of grass in his mouth, his mind lost in the memories of two hours ago.
"Ye Li, this hall master will give you a task today. Do you have the confidence to complete it?"
Hu Tao looked seriously at Ye Li, who had just woken up, opened the door to the courtyard and yawned, and said in a tone that this was a good job.
"Master Hu Tao, you are knocking me for this so early in the morning. But I am curious about what makes you so excited."
"Hehe, do you want to know? As long as you agree to do this, I will tell you."
Looking at Hu Tao with his fists on his waist, Ye Li nodded helplessly. After all, he had been in the Hall of Rebirth for more than a week, and apart from the daily recitation of the Rebirth Mantra, burning talismans and incense, he really hadn't done anything serious.
If one really wants to find a serious job, it is the coffin-making work of the mechanical carpenter. After all, Tartaglia ordered more than 1000 coffins. All of them were completed in the first two days, and then it was the above daily routine.
Hu Tao was not surprised that Ye Li agreed. When she helped Tartaglia build the coffin, she moved a lot of wood and also witnessed Ye Li's attainments in mechanical engineering with her own eyes. She could only say that it was amazing, but she couldn't understand it at all.
Putting aside the topic that had already passed, Hu Tao looked at Ye Li and agreed, and immediately told him with a grin the reason and mission for coming to see him this time.
"Ye Li, guest official, Tian Quan has some issues recently and needs to find a carpenter with excellent craftsmanship to help build several 1:1 models of the Qun Yu Pavilion. This is to prepare several backups in case the Qun Yu Pavilion suddenly collapses due to an accident in the future. This is a large order worth several billion Mora."
"It's called a model, but in reality it's just building a house."
"You are so smart. You are worthy of being the employee I chose."
When Hu Tao saw that her euphemism was exposed, she did not feel angry or resentful at all. Instead, she smiled happily and looked at Ye Li with her bright peach-colored eyes.
Seeing Hu Tao staring at him, the helpless night worker had to raise his hands in surrender, stepped out of the door, took the list that Hu Tao took out with a smile and left.
Hu Tao followed Ye Li in lively steps until they arrived at the gate of the Hall of Rebirth. Coincidentally, she ran into the waitress who was holding a form in her hand and had a helpless but smiling look on her face.
"Ye Li, you must get more Mora back. Zhong Li has sent the bill back again."
Hu Tao's originally happy expression suddenly wilted. She got a headache when she saw the bill. Even if she had a lot of money, she couldn't spend it.
Ye Li listened to Hu Tao's whispering beside his ear, and nodded to the waiter in front of him who was looking at him as a polite greeting.
Seeing Hu Tao's gloomy face, the waitress smiled helplessly and returned Ye Li's greeting. She then handed the bill and form in her hand to Hu Tao and said:
"Master, Mr. Zhongli took a pair of hairpins today. I want you to find someone to send them back to the family in need. Oh, by the way, the daily necessities are outside the door. It can be regarded as Mr. Zhongli's help to show his kindness to others."
Looking at the forms and bills in his hands, Hu Tao felt helpless and relieved. He then waved his hand and said:
"Okay, I'm used to it anyway. Oh, by the way, I remember Zhongli treated you to a meal, so don't think about sending the bill."
Seeing Hu Tao's confident look, Miss Yiguan nodded with a smile. Zhongli would send the bill over anyway, or he would send it to the Northland Bank.
……
After finishing the recollections in his mind, Ye Li looked at what Hu Tao had arranged, glanced at the bag and hairpin in his hands, smiled, and came to one of today's destinations, a rather old house.
Ye Li raised his hand and knocked on the door. A sickly but still powerful female voice came from inside:
"Is Ah Fu back? But shouldn't he be working at the port at this time? Could it be that he has taken a holiday early?"
"Hello, I'm the doctor invited by Mr. Yan Fu. He asked me to bring you some medicine."
Ye Li spoke in a gentle tone, and the small pills he had prepared in his hand were sparkling, but the woman who heard Ye Li's voice fell silent.
Ye Li was puzzled, wondering if he had messed up his excuse.
Before Ye Li could make the next reaction, a burst of anxious yet slow footsteps were heard in the old house, followed by the sound of a door opening.
He saw a long-haired woman with a pretty appearance looking at him with a pale face. The lifeless look in her eyes looked at the pair of hairpins in Ye Li's hands, and she immediately understood the whole story.
"How could that idiot sell something so heavy? Well, sir, can you give us a few days' grace? We must pay back the money we pawned."
Ye Li smiled helplessly, knowing what the other party had misunderstood, and explained:
"Miss, you misunderstood. I am really a doctor. This pair of hairpins was bought by Mr. Zhongli from Wangsheng Hall. He saw that you were in trouble, so he asked me to return them. I also sent some daily necessities and Mora as medical expenses to help you with your treatment."
The woman looked at Ye Li's serious and handsome face, and recalled in her mind how her husband worked hard for her, going out early and coming back late every day. She felt bitter and moved at the same time.
Ye Li didn't say any more nonsense. He just flicked his hand lightly and the small pill in his hand entered the woman's mouth, melting in her mouth. It was colorless and tasteless.
The woman wanted to reject Ye Li's kindness, but her husband happened to come back. He looked nervous and worried, and it was obvious that he knew that the hairpin in the pawn shop had been sold.
Ye Li had no choice but to struggle with the couple in front of him for half an hour, and successfully persuaded them to accept their things. Then he walked towards the Qun Yu Pavilion at a leisurely pace.
On the other side, in the Jade Pavilion that spanned a thousand meters in the sky, Tianquan Ningguang of the Liyue Seven Stars sat at his desk, looking at the letter sent by Hu Tao in his hand, and then looking at the survey that the General Affairs Department had handed over not long ago. He raised an interested smile at the corner of his mouth and commented:
"It's really amazing. There is no black record in his past. First of all, he has a good relationship with Yaoyao, and then he joined the Wangsheng Hall. Keqing also has a good opinion of him. In addition, there was a report about him helping people not long ago. He is a trustworthy guy."
Ningguang held the report in one hand, and the doubt in her eyes disappeared. She looked at the door that had already been opened. She looked at Ye Li, who looked exactly like the portrait in the report, and gave people a lazy but serious temperament. She said:
"You must be Mr. Ye Li. Although you came here specially because of the announcement, you are a handsome guy at first glance."
"Lord Ningguang, you are here today because the hall master asked you to. If you have nothing else to do, let's get straight to the point."
"You are really straightforward. Then show me your work and prove your ability."
"In that case, let's take a look at this mini version of the Jade Pavilion."
Ye Li directly picked up the box in his hand and opened it, then took out a small and exquisite mechanism from the box and placed it in front of Ningguang.
A few minutes later, Ningguang took a deep breath and said seriously and resolutely:
"Ye Li, I'll leave the construction of the backup Jade Pavilion to you. With your ability, 1.8 million is more than enough."
