Chapter 267 Steps to open the space gate.

"The food is here."

"Slime Smooth Qingxin is made with the best slime gel and top-grade Qingxin. It has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. It tastes slightly bitter, but has a sweet aftertaste."

"Dragon Breath Roasted Wing Roots compares roasted crispy vegetables (such as eggplant) to dragon wings, with petals of flame flowers adorning the feathers, as if you can feel a slight 'burning' breath with every bite."

"Forest Lannaro. When I went to Xumi, I heard a fairy tale about a fairy named Lannaro in the forest, so I made this dish. It is a refreshing salad with a mixture of diced green leafy vegetables and fruits, representing the freshness of the forest and the agility of Lannaro. It is topped with crystal clear jade-like small lamp grass juice, which is both beautiful and healthy."

"..."

Xiangling was very enthusiastic about Wang Hao and his new friends who wanted to eat her special dishes.

He served all the new dishes he had invented during his recent travels.

You know what, although the name is strange, Xiangling’s cooking skills are unquestionable and the dishes she makes are also very exquisite.

"It's just... Slime gel, is this thing really edible?"

Kavi looked hesitantly at the delicious-looking dish in front of him and paused.

"Don't worry, Xiangling's craftsmanship is trustworthy. After special processing, these ingredients are harmless to the human body. Even ordinary people can eat them."

The place where slime gel is most commonly used is probably the alchemy workshop. Using it on food ingredients like Xiangling is also groundbreaking.

Moreover, this is not a craft that cannot be spread.
In fact, when Shinobu Kuki sent roasted violets to Arataki, she liked to apply slime gel on them. This was a skill she learned from Xiangling.

Shinobu Kuki obtained his chef certificate at Wanmin Hall.

Wang Hao brought Kavi to taste Xiangling's cooking so that he could get used to it in advance. When they go to the island, he might even try Jiuqi Shinobu's cooking.

"Then I... give it a try?"

“Try it now.”

Under Wang Hao's urging,
Kavi picked up the chopsticks, picked up the food and put it into his mouth.

You know what, he uses chopsticks very well. As expected of a civil engineer, he has good control.

It is smooth in the mouth, and there is a hint of herbal bitterness after chewing it gently, but it disappears quickly, followed by a light sweet aftertaste.

Kavi's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "Very good, with a slight coolness after the sweetness. If it can be made into a drink, it will be more suitable for use on the construction site."

He really loves architecture, and his first thought was to turn the dish into a drink.

Qingxin has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. If it is combined with a certain amount of sugar and salt, and supplemented with other medicinal materials, there is no problem in making cold dishes with it.

As for why Wang Hao knew this,

Hey, because many teahouses in Liyue Pier have this kind of tea.

Liyue is a commercial country and a tea country, so Kavi naturally doesn't need to explain its research on tea.

"As long as you like it, try other dishes."

Wang Hao said with a smile and started to eat with his chopsticks. He also liked Xiangling's dishes.

Of course, I like the dishes I have tried.

Usually, when Xiangling comes across a new dish, Wang Hao will suggest that Xiangling ask Xingqiu to try it out.

Xingqiu usually gives the food to Chongyun.

In the end, the honest man Chongyun will give the answer as to whether it tastes good or not.

The key point is that Xiangling likes spicy food when cooking...

In short, after getting to know everyone, Chongyun's life was very exciting.

After having a good meal and paying the bill, Wang Hao said goodbye to Xiangling and took Kavi back to the orphanage.

Walking into the new residential area,

The demolition and reconstruction work here has been completely completed.

The neat and orderly arrangement of houses and buildings gives people a sense of regular beauty.

Kavi liked it very much. He had thought of a similar design before. Unfortunately, he had never taken on a large-scale project in Xumi.

The biggest project was the Casazzale Palace, and then it went bankrupt.

However, Kavi was a little excited when he thought about designing a town of 100,000 people in the future.

Back to the poorhouse,
Then I saw Keqing standing at the door.

"I heard that you came back and brought your friends with you, so I knew you would come back here first."

Keqing came over with a gentle smile.

"Huh? Is the Guiliyuan project completed? I thought you didn't come back." Wang Hao was a little surprised that Keqing appeared here.

Normally, Keqing's sense of responsibility would not allow her to put down her work and come back early.

"The project is coming to an end. The next step is to complete the final disinfection, and then the seeding team can enter the site."

When talking about the Guiliyuan project, Keqing was serious and gave an explanation.

Wang Hao nodded slightly and calculated the time. It was almost time. If he didn't finish it, he would miss the final sowing time.

"Kavi, let me introduce you. This is Keqing, the Jade Star of the Seven Stars of Liyue, and also my love."

Wang Hao introduced Kawi to a sentence,
Then he pointed at Kawi and introduced him to Keqing.
"This is Kavi, a scholar from the Xumi Order Institute. He is good at construction engineering and is an expert I invited."

Keqing's eyes lit up. As a Yuheng Star, she was mostly responsible for various projects in Liyue.

Hearing that Kavi was a professional, I couldn't help but look sideways.

"Hello, Scholar Kavi."

Kavi didn't think much about it. In Kavi's view, the Seven Stars of Liyue were equivalent to the sages of the Academy of the Decrees.

So he nodded respectfully: "Hello, Yuhengxing."

Simply say hello to each other.

"Okay, let's go in first and arrange a place for Kavi to stay."

Wang Hao spoke.

Kawi will definitely stay in Liyue for a few days.

Wang Hao also needs to discuss specific assistance policies, loan policies, and technical assistance with Qixing.

We also have to give Inazuma some time and let Lei Film retain those wavering believers of the New Order.

However, Kavi didn't mind. He just wanted to spend more time in Liyue and see the different architectural styles. He was as happy as a rat in a rice jar.

The accommodation arranged for Kavi naturally could not be Ying's room, but a separate room was found for him.

The orphanage is very large. If I don’t want to live in the same yard with Wang Hao, there are still vacancies in other places.

After settling Kavi down,

Wang Hao and Keqing went to see the dean's grandmother.

I haven't seen grandma for a long time. Her face looks rosy and she is obviously doing well.

She doesn't need to work hard by herself, there are caregivers to help, watching the little ones grow up little by little,

The director’s grandmother feels that she is very happy.

However, an old man is an old man after all. After chatting for a while, he began to urge Wang Hao and Keqing to get things done quickly, both explicitly and implicitly.

The two men couldn't hold on any longer and fled in embarrassment.

However, the director's eyes were full of smiles as she watched them leave.

These two little guys finally get to meet each other, but instead of going out for a walk and chat together, they come to see an old lady like me. What a joke.

"Grandma wants to..."

"I know."

The two of them strolled down the corridor of the workhouse, hand in hand.

"what do you think?"

"I can do it."

Keqing's face flushed slightly and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's.

In fact, the feelings between the two of them had already been understood by each other.

"I may be very busy for a long time next time." Wang Hao said apologetically.

Keqing shook her head nonchalantly: "I haven't had any free time either. We are together because we share the same ideals and are in tune with each other, right?"

After a pause, before Wang Hao could continue, she continued, "I know you need to take care of your own things, but it's okay."

She grabbed Wang Hao's hand and placed it on her heart, and a slight vibration came from the palm of her hand.

She didn't say anything else.
But Wang Hao completely understood Keqing's intentions.

Work, time, even suffering, are not difficulties.

Keqing is a focused girl, whether it is work or love.

Since she has already chosen Wang Hao, she will treat this relationship wholeheartedly.

In other places, it is easy to get hurt.
But fortunately, Wang Hao is the same person.

He has chosen Keqing, so he will protect her sincerity with all his heart.

"Ahem, I don't mean to peek, I just want to ask, can that Xumi note be used in Liyue?"

Just when Wang Hao and Keqing were becoming more and more pink,
A slight cough was heard.
It turned out that the two men had already walked to the yard where Kavi was. Kavi was behind the gate, only three meters away from them.

Actually, Kavi wanted to dodge at first, but it was too late.

The two of them held hands and walked quite fast, and he had no time to dodge.

The good atmosphere was broken.

Keqing was not angry, but said calmly: "If it is Xumi's banknotes, you have to go to the official bank or a big chamber of commerce like Feiyun Chamber of Commerce to exchange them."

The Northland Bank used to be fine, but recently the Liyue Northland Bank seems to have been abandoned by the rich and is no longer as good as it used to be.

However, Andre is still alive and well, and for some reason, the rich man did not kill him.

Anyway, Andre has to report to Ye Lan every now and then, for fear that Ye Lan has forgotten him. "Oh, OK, you guys continue, I'm leaving first."

Kavi quickly fled the scene, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Does he know the way?" Keqing asked with amusement.

Wang Hao shook his head: "Don't underestimate Kawi, this guy often hangs out in some Jedi places, and he has a strong ability to adapt."

Having said that, he continued walking, holding Keqing’s hand.

"Let's go. We haven't been back to our little home for a long time. Let's go back and take a look."

Keqing's face turned slightly red, but she didn't refuse.

……

Over the next few days, Wang Hao was busy in Liyue. First, under the witness of the immortals, he signed a large number of loan terms with the Seven Stars.

Of course, during this period, he also took the immortal and Uncle Tian to an island in the Dark Sea for a simple investigation.

After signing the terms, he held talks with a large number of Liyue private chambers of commerce with the help of the Seven Stars.

After learning that there was a project with an initial investment of 30 billion Mora, the Liyue market instantly became active.

Some workers who were taking a break because their original project was about to end were immediately recruited with higher wages.

A large number of related industries began to prosper.

If Liyue had something like a stock market, the stock price would probably be forced up by now.

"Okay, if I hadn't received the report from the Chamber of Commerce, I wouldn't have known you had set up such a big business."

In the poorhouse,

Xingqiu looked at Wang Hao excitedly, with Chongyun following behind him.

Wang Hao frowned helplessly and looked at the two men: "So what are you going to do?"

Looking at Xingqiu's excited expression, Wang Hao knew that he must have some new ideas.

Think about how innocent Xingqiu was when they were in the academy. How come he has so many clever ideas now?

After thinking about it, Wang Hao felt that he seemed to have led Xingqiu astray.

The initial scam of robbing the rich to help the poor was his own idea.

This bureau is still circulating in academies and is used by teachers as educational materials.

Therefore, the fault lies with me.

"Hehe, Dad said it's your business, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is willing to make some concessions, so he sent me to talk to you."

Xingqiu chuckled, then spoke seriously.

Wang Hao curled his lips: "Tell the truth."

"Ha, I heard it's an island in the dark sea, wouldn't it be very mysterious? Chongyun and I are going to take a look, can you give us a spot?"

Xingqiu imitated Paimon's hand-rubbing gesture.

The Dark Sea is too dangerous, so even if the Seven Stars are prepared to send workers to Wang Hao, this quota cannot be given casually and requires agreement between both parties.

Xingqiu and Chongyun wanted to venture to the islands outside the Dark Sea. They could either sail there themselves, but without a coordinate chart, they certainly couldn't do that.

Or ask Wang Hao to give him a place, and then take him in when the space gate opens.

Wang Hao felt relieved after hearing that. It turned out that he still wanted to play, which was in line with Xingqiu's personality.

"It's not impossible. That place is huge. Although I have many followers to clean it up, the Dark Sea still poses many threats to ordinary people. It's a good thing that you are willing to go there."

Although Xingqiu and Chongyun are still young, they are indeed very strong and have no problem dealing with ordinary monsters.

Moreover, Chongyun comes from a family of scholars and can express his opinions on many strange things.

There would be benefits in letting both of them go.

"Hehe, I knew you were generous. Don't worry, Chongyun and I will definitely not cause any trouble for you."

Xingqiu chuckled.

Wang Hao shook his head. He didn't care whether it was troublesome or not. Anyway, those islands would definitely be cleared.

Even if Xingqiu and Chongyun didn't go, there would still be trouble.

"Since you want to go, let's go and take a look now. Let's go to the Tianheng Mountain military camp."

Wang Hao waved to the two of them, with Kavi following behind him.

Kawi has been having a great time these days, looking at all kinds of Liyue buildings everywhere.

He plans to write another paper on Liyue architecture, maybe he can apply for more funding in the future.

Leading people all the way to the military camp at the foot of Tianheng Mountain,
Wang Hao and others were quickly taken in and brought to a spacious shed.
This place was obviously built not long ago and is just for simple shelter from wind and rain.

There are several huge devices in the factory shed, emitting a faint blue light.

At this time, Shi Qing was already waiting here. When he saw Wang Hao and his men coming over, he immediately waved.

"This way."

When Wang Hao and others approached,

Keqing continued, "This is the fourth generation of teleportation equipment. It has many advantages such as stability, energy saving, and a large range."

As she said that, she looked at Wang Hao: "However, there are no coordinates of the island in the dark sea here. You need to open the door yourself for the first time."

Keqing already knew that Wang Hao could tear open the space door. She saw with her own eyes Wang Hao tear open the space door and take the immortal and Tian Shu to investigate.

Nodding slightly, Wang Hao looked at several huge devices.

Space teleportation device with space stabilization capability.

The main thing is the stability of the space behind.

The space that Wang Hao tore open by himself was too violent and unfriendly to ordinary people, so he needed this device to assist.

The price is not expensive, only 100 million Mora.

However, Wang Hao did not look at it for too long, and looked to the other side: "So... why is Keqing Zhongli here?"

Next to several huge devices, a handsome young man was checking something.

The barrage in Wang Hao's eyes was full of question marks.

Why is Zhongli here?

"The fourth generation of teleportation technology uses some immortal arts to replace normal runes. Mr. Zhongli is a talent recognized by the immortals, so we hired him as a consultant."

Keqing explained very naturally.

Zhongli is a talented person, and Keqing has known this for a long time.

So she was not surprised that Zhongli was recommended by the immortals.

"Long time no see, little friend."

Zhongli looked over, nodded at Wang Hao, and said quietly.

This child is growing up so fast.

"Long time no see, Mr. Zhongli." Wang Hao also hurriedly responded.
He still respects Zhongli very much.

"Well, the equipment has been checked and connected to the energy source from Tianheng Mountain. It can be started now."

Zhongli said.

The energy on the Tianheng Mountain side is the energy of the new factory area in Tianheng Mountain. It is mainly electrical energy, but also elemental energy.

Wang Hao nodded and took a step forward: "I'll open the space door, please help me stabilize it."

Zhongli signaled to Wang Hao that he could start at any time.

The steps to open the space door are simple.

First, communicate with the World Tree to locate it.

Then, he stretched out his hands and tore it apart with force.

A space crack was torn out by Wang Hao.

Zhongli was watching from the side and felt that Wang Hao's actions were somewhat familiar. Thinking about it carefully, hey, this was how he took Wang Hao to the Dark Sea when he wanted to challenge him.

At that time, he moved his body and beat Wang Hao up.

The old man recalled the past, and his hands did not slow down. He quickly controlled the instrument to fix the space crack torn by Wang Hao.
The originally irregular space cracks gradually stabilized, forming a giant space gate five meters high and ten meters wide.

Before Wang Hao was happy,

Then Zhong Kai said, "The energy consumption is quite high. At this rate, the power plant in the new district may not be able to sustain it."

Energy is a big issue.

But Wang Hao was not worried because he was already prepared.

"This is easy, use it."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and a purple chess piece emerged.

"Heart of God?"

Keqing said hesitantly.

She had seen the Heart of the God of Wind that Wang Hao held before, so when she saw the Heart of the God of Thunder now, she would naturally make the connection.

"Yeah, I got it from Inazuma."

This is the reward for cooperating with Yae Shinko to change Lei Dianying's will.

For this reason, Wang Hao even took the initiative to give part of the power of the new order to the Eightfold Son of God for use.

"If the Heart of God provides energy, then it is possible."

Zhongli also nodded.

"However, if we want to maintain two-way transmission, we also need an energy interface on the other side."
