I'm a male god in Liyue

Thank you to everyone for the reminder in the comments.

I looked at it and realized that I did write something wrong at the end of the previous chapter. Although that wasn't my intention, it may have caused some misunderstanding.

The characters in the book are based on the game's settings. Xingqiu's personality is more "chivalrous," so he won't be asked to do anything that's greedy for money or petty gains.

The book's style is also more slice-of-life, without any scheming or intrigue.

I have corrected it, but due to caching, you will need to manually refresh the chapter to see it.

Thank you again for pointing out the problems in the book!

Happy holidays everyone!

Chapter 137 Did I Go into the Wrong Room?

Xingqiu took his leave.

Xia Zhi recalled the conversation just now and was still a little surprised.

He hadn't expected that Liyue would have already enshrined copyright in its laws at this point.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a trade capital.

It's time to open for business.

The little girl was the first to run to the door, her sweet, childlike voice ringing out, "Guests! Please come in with Yao Yao!"

Xia Zhi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Around 4 PM, Zhong Li arrived again on time.

As expected of a deity, their sense of time is truly remarkable.

Xia Zhi made him a rainbow juice and sent it over, but didn't send a plate of cucumber salad with a straw raincoat. After all, that was a cold dish, not a dessert, and the taste didn't really go well with the juice. It was fine for him to eat casually at home, but it wasn't appropriate to serve guests.

"Use [Learn from Others] on the target?"

"Yes."

"Successfully used [Learn from Others] and learned the skill [Art Appreciation] from the target."

"【Learn from Others】 is now on cooldown. It can be used again in 24 hours."

"【Art Appreciation】: Automatically master the appreciation of art works and become a master of appreciation."

This time, Xia Zhi didn't experience the feeling of suddenly gaining new knowledge in his head, as he had before.

He felt as if the world in his field of vision had suddenly changed.

The concepts of beauty and ugliness have become clearer.

The style and arrangement of the tables and chairs, the style and color of the guests' clothes, the makeup on the girl's face...

He can now see the problem with things that he used to only vaguely feel were good or bad.

The tables on the left are too close together; that guest violated the taboo of clashing red and green; and that girl's lips are too brightly colored...

Is this the eye of a connoisseur?

Xia Zhi paused for a moment, then couldn't help but glance at the calligraphy and painting he had written on the wall.

...This handwriting...is so ugly...

Xia Zhi silently withdrew his gaze. What does it matter if my handwriting is ugly? Please, I'm blind! It's already amazing that I can write in a way that others can understand!

However, Liyue has all sorts of legends and stories related to the Geo Archon.

The delicious snacks that Lord Yan discovered when he got lost, the plaque with his own calligraphy, the famous opera in which Lord Yan once played a minor role...

Especially in the antique street, almost every shop has a few good items that Lord Yan touched. As for whether those items are genuine, only Mr. Zhongli himself probably knows.

It's quite reasonable that the Geo Archon, having wandered around Liyue for thousands of years and seen so much of the human world, would become a connoisseur.

However, none of that matters. What matters is that with this skill, she will finally be able to understand what Mr. Yun is singing when she goes to listen to opera in the future. She will no longer have to worry about not being able to say anything when Zhu Zi asks her about it. Her image of him as an all-knowing and all-powerful boss can be preserved.

After dinner, the three of them went to the port area to find Yan Fei. This time she was at a legal consulting firm. She smiled and invited everyone to sit down, and even made hot tea.

"What can I do for you, Mr. Xia?"

"I have a business deal to discuss with the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, and I would like to ask Miss Yanfei to help me with the contract."

"What about it?"

"It's a matter of copyright revenue sharing..."

Yan Fei listened carefully, nodded, and smiled, "I see, I'm familiar with this business..."

"Oh? Miss Yanfei, have you handled many similar matters before?"

"No, it was I who suggested this law to the Seven Stars in the first place."

!! ?

Sorry, we were blind to your talent.

"Then I'll leave it to Miss Yanfei."

"It's a small matter."

"Come to the shop when you have time, and I'll make you some magical Mapo Tofu."

"Mapo tofu and such are no problem! Don't worry, Mr. Xia! As your friend, I will definitely try to get you the maximum share!"

After having a cup of tea and chatting for a while, the three of them said goodbye and left. Xia Zhi originally wanted to go to the craft shop next door to see the beautiful proprietress, but it was already closed, so he had to give up.

They saw a kitchenware store on the way, and Zhu Zi quickly reminded them.

"Boss, that shop sells kimchi jars, but we don't think we have any in our kitchen. Would you like to buy a few?"

"No need, I have another one in my room."

"Oh."

Zhu Zi nodded, a sudden, inexplicable curiosity welling up inside her about the boss's room.

The boss's room has everything... I really want to go in and see... but unfortunately, employees can't just go in... sigh...

After taking a shower that evening, Xia Zhi returned to her room and suddenly her obsessive-compulsive disorder kicked in.

He always felt that the room's layout looked awkward: this table shouldn't be here, this bed should be moved a little closer to the window...

After working for a while, he finally arranged the room to look pleasing to the eye, and then began to do his daily tasks with satisfaction.

At night, Akabane entered through the wall next door and was stunned for a moment when she saw the room that had suddenly changed.

Did I go into the wrong room?

Wait a minute, this familiar scent of incense, and this familiar person on the bed... this is definitely the place!

Akabane looked around the room with some curiosity.

The objects were exactly the same as before, only slightly rearranged, yet they gave her a pleasing feeling.

It's as if... this isn't an ordinary room, but a meticulously arranged work of art.

Did someone knowledgeable come by during the day?

Akabane silently memorized the scene before him, deciding that he would decorate his room in the same way when he returned.

The next morning, after Xia Zhi got up, he opened the [Shop] and bought a kimchi jar.

【Dragon-Turning Pot】

Quality: Silver.

Type: Kitchenware set.

Features: None.

Effect: When using this pot to process ordinary ingredients, it can significantly shorten the time for brewing and fermentation processes.

Hidden effect: Collecting all eight pieces of the kitchenware set will activate the set's special properties.

Price: 20 points.

Generally speaking, kimchi needs to be pickled for 6-10 days before it can be eaten, but that takes too long and is hard to wait for, so it's better to spend some money to speed it up.

This is also the second set of kitchen utensils.

Xia Zhi carried the [Dragon-Turning Pot] downstairs and placed it in the corner of the kitchen.

When Zhu Zi and Shen He returned from grocery shopping, they began making kimchi. They chopped up cabbage, radish, cucumber, and other vegetables, threw them all in, and soaked them in salt water.

Once the egg and shredded pork noodles for breakfast were cooked, Xia Zhi opened the "Dragon-Turning Pot" and tasted a piece of radish.

It tastes sour and crunchy, and it's already soaked.

"Boss, is it ready?"
