Genshin Impact: Starting from Liyue to Build Infrastructure

Construction began at Yaoguang Beach.

At the same time, Zhongli's clubhouse construction had also started.

Just after the New Year, Guiliyuan entered a large-scale construction phase, which surprised many people.

In the evening, the news began to broadcast updates on these developments.

[Recently, the General Affairs Department issued a new infrastructure initiative.]

[The development plan for Yaoguang Beach has been put on the agenda.]

[To provide the people of Liyue a place to escape the summer heat,]

[Tianquan Ningguang and Lord Takumi decided to start developing Yaoguang Beach.]

As the news was broadcast, a detailed model of Yaoguang Beach appeared on the screen.

It showed the area it would cover and the planned developments.

Upon seeing this, many people's eyes lit up.

This sounded promising.

If it was built, they would have a perfect spot for the summer holidays.

They could enjoy the beach and cool off.

[Additionally, the road leading to Sumeru is nearly complete.]

[According to reports, only a month remains until the full opening of business with Sumeru.]

[The Qingxu Pool transfer station has already been completed.]

[Businesspeople interested in opportunities can visit the General Affairs Department at Liyue Port for more information.]

[Furthermore, Liyue plans to gradually reduce food imports.]

[Thousands of acres of farmland have been reclaimed at Cuihua Slope.]

[Master Takumi announced that Liyue's second granary would be built here.]

[If all goes well, after spring plowing and the autumn harvest, Liyue will achieve food self-sufficiency.]

[There will be no need to rely on imports from other nations.]

Today's news focused on Liyue's ambitious development plans.

Many businessmen saw the broadcast and realized there were growing business opportunities in Liyue.

Excitement spread quickly.

Especially regarding the Qingxu Pool.

If the transfer station became fully operational, it would be a key hub between Sumeru and Liyue.

Shipments would likely pass through there regularly.

Those needing specific goods might only need to visit Qingxu Pool to find what they were looking for.

Many entrepreneurs decided they would personally explore these opportunities once the trade route opened.

On the internet, discussions buzzed about the new developments.

Some even considered finding work related to the projects.

Yaoguang Beach, for example, promised to become a new commercial street.

A place not only for relaxation but also for shopping and business.

Craftsmen debated whether they should set up shop there.

Some made their decision immediately.

When Yaoguang Beach opened, they would establish a business there.

Those who hesitated in the past, such as with the old department store, regretted it later.

Many thought not enough people would visit Guiliyuan to make a profit.

But they had been wrong.

The area saw a constant stream of visitors.

Not only locals but also people from Liyue Port traveled to shop there.

Those who set up early had made a lot of money.

Now, seeing another opportunity, no one wanted to miss it.

Small traders especially made up their minds.

They had to seize this chance.

Even if the area only saw peak business in summer, a few profitable months would be enough.

One successful season could earn as much as a year of regular work.

This was an opportunity too good to pass up.

Takumi, on the other hand, had expected this reaction.

The news broadcast was only meant to create some early buzz.

The strategy worked perfectly.

The interest generated would surely lead to many inquiries about the project.

The next day, Takumi planned to hold a meeting with the business management team at the General Affairs Department.

They would discuss the next steps and coordinate further.

That night, after finishing his work, Takumi noticed Keqing staring at him.

"Takumi, tell me, why am I not pregnant yet?"

The sudden question caught Takumi off guard.

"Ah Qing, do you want to be a mother?"

Takumi's expression turned a bit strange.

Why was she asking this now?

Keqing's cheeks turned red.

"No!"

"I just find it strange..."

"After all this time, neither Shen He nor I have shown any signs."

"Isn't it weird?"

"Don't you think so too?"

"Or, Takumi, is something wrong with you?"

Her suspicion was evident.

After all, they had not been taking any precautions.

Takumi sighed, then explained calmly.

"It's not about me."

"It might be due to strong bloodlines."

"For example, immortals also find it difficult to have children."

"The stronger a person is, the harder it is to conceive."

"Look at the demon gods."

"Do they have offspring?"

"Not really."

"Even the Vortex God had a wife, but there were no stories of children."

"That's why, for me, having children is quite difficult."

"If you truly want it, the only solution might be... quantity."

Keqing's face was filled with confusion.

Even Shen He, who had been listening quietly, was perplexed.

What exactly did Takumi mean?

After a moment, Keqing's expression turned into a glare.

She pinched Takumi's waist hard.

"What did you say?"

Takumi didn't flinch.

"You know what I mean."

"Don't forget the situation now."

Keqing's expression turned a bit sour.

"You... fine."

"Let's just sleep."

She dropped the topic, not wanting to provoke him further.

She knew better than to invite more trouble.

Takumi chuckled softly.

He stopped teasing her and lay down to rest.

Soon, he fell asleep.

Meanwhile, far away on Celestia, the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles awoke from her deep slumber.

She sensed the state of Teyvat.

Her brows knitted together.

Was someone else trying to enter this world?

Moreover, it seemed like they were being sent over.

Just like the red-haired woman sent to Liyue previously.

Again, an outsider had found a way in.

She made a decision.

Takumi had to know about this.

Thinking of Takumi, a trace of resentment appeared on her face.

Didn't he know to come and see her?
