Shen He offered no further explanation.
After all, she and the boss actually played for much longer than half an hour...
Xia Zhi opened his meditation space, and the three of them went inside and played games for a while, then watched two movies.
Looking at the elementary school in the movie, the Great Tree King suddenly said, "Children in this world are not so fortunate."
"you mean?"
"The opportunity for education. Even in Sumeru, not everyone can enter the academy to pursue knowledge. Not to mention Liyue, when we go out shopping, we often see children running around with wooden swords and knives, wanting to be heroes. There are also many children at the docks who like to play the role of pirate captains... As you can see, although Liyue has a large population, a large number of people are still illiterate. Children of this age should be receiving a proper education at school."
"That's true..."
"If Ningguang could use the money spent on building the Jade Pavilion to build schools, Liyue's future would definitely be brighter."
"It makes sense."
"I'll talk to Ningguang later and tell her not to just think about making money, but also to know how to spend it."
"I think you just want to find some new fun to have..."
"Nonsense! I'm clearly planning for Liyue's long-term future!"
"alright."
Xia Zhi didn't say much more.
In fact, there are schools in Liyue, but not everyone sends their children to school, and the teachers in the schools are not particularly learned.
Just like Yao Yao, who is so intelligent, Grandma Ping prefers to keep her by her side and teach her carefully.
As Xia Zhi watched the movie, he thought back to the banquet he attended at Qunyu Pavilion yesterday.
The guests there are all elites of Liyue, most of whom have received a good family education, and most of them also carry treasure chests.
While education and treasure chests are not absolutely related, they certainly have an influence.
If everyone in Liyue can receive a good education in the future, at the very least, the number of people with treasure chests they encounter on the street will definitely increase.
This is a good thing.
I'll have to tell Ms. Ningguang about it next time I get a massage.
Spectacularity can ruin a country!
After watching the movie, the three of them went outside to look for materials.
Xia Zhi took out the [Finding Compass] from his pocket.
Shen He took it and glanced at it, his eyes showing some surprise: "Boss, it seems different from before?"
Xia Zhi nodded: "Yes, I modified it again, and now it can search for better things."
The Great Tree King curiously leaned closer: "Let me see... It has become more beautiful, but it looks like a pocket watch. Cousin, are you jealous that I have a pocket watch, so you secretly made one too?"
"What do you think?"
"I'm sure that's it!"
"Oh, woman."
"Shen He! Look! Quickly, hit him!"
"Shen He, don't be afraid, I will definitely help you!"
“Shen He…”
Shen He ignored her and carefully examined the compass needle: "Boss, it's in that direction."
"Okay, let's go."
As the night passed, the three of them enjoyed another beautiful dreamscape, and Xia Zhi also gained more points than the day before.
This investment in the compass was well worth it.
Waking up from his dream, Xia Zhi practiced shooting with Shen He for a bit more.
Shen He's twin ponytails eventually came undone.
Xia Zhi picked up Shen He's white jade comb and slowly combed her hair.
"Is today the 29th?"
"Yes, it's October 29th."
"Tomorrow is the 30th, and the day after tomorrow it will be November. Time flies."
"The shop is about to pay wages again."
"Yes, I need to give you and Diona extra money this month."
"I?"
"The shop next door is yours, so of course we have to give you extra money; consider it rent."
"No need."
"It's okay, I don't need the money. You can take it as pocket money."
"Oh."
"What do you want to eat today?"
"sour."
"You really love sour foods. Did you eat too many herbs in the past?"
"perhaps……"
What does fresh, refreshing taste like?
"It's very bitter."
"I'm amazed you can eat that. Let me think, I'll make you sweet and sour pork ribs today, with a sweet and sour flavor."
"it is good."
"The mahjong competition starts next week, so I need to do my best."
"Ah."
They talked in bed for a while, then went downstairs together.
Considering that the store will start selling rainbow wine tomorrow, Xia Zhi brewed a jar of wine using the [Dragon Turning Pot].
"Boss, this jar is too small. We already have quite a few members. Is it enough to sell?"
"Since we want to elevate the style, this wine will definitely be available in limited quantities."
"Limited edition?"
"Yes, we only sell one jar a day. If customers want to drink it, they should come early. This way, Diona won't be too overworked, and we can maintain the mystery and value of Rainbow Wine."
"Oh!"
"Of course, to make guests feel they are getting more value for their money, I will make the wine a little special."
"Something special?"
Xia Zhi smiled mysteriously.
He plans to add a drop of "Gokuraku Rice Wine" to each jar of wine as a way of giving back to the customers who have supported his business.
In the afternoon, Miss Yelan came to the shop alone.
She also brought a gift of tea.
"Miss Yelan, you're too kind!"
"It's just tea from my own shop, a small token of my appreciation, nothing much."
"Thank you very much."
"I came here today to ask Mr. Xia to give me another massage."
"no problem."
Xia Zhi invited Miss Ye Lan to the back hall and had her take off her clothes and lie on the small bed. He was surprised to find that Ye Lan had more injuries on her body.
The injury is very fresh; it seems to have been sustained just yesterday.
"Miss Yelan, how come you're injured again?"
"It's just a minor injury, Mr. Xia, please don't worry about it."
"Has Miss Yelan gone on another mission?"
"Yes."
"For Miss Yelan to be injured, the mission must have been very difficult, right?"
"Fortunately."
Ye Lan did not reveal the specific details of the mission to him, presumably for reasons of secrecy.
Xia Zhi didn't ask any more questions. She quietly treated her wound and then applied essential oil.
