Genshin Impact: Ningguang or Little Pitiful, Invested by Me

But with Fang Xun's arrival now, Ningguang's mother could clearly feel that her daughter had become much more cheerful than before.

Just for this, Ningguang's mother was very grateful to Fang Xun.

"Mhm! Brother Fang Xun said Ningguang will definitely become an excellent secretary in the future,"

"Ningguang needs to grow up quickly and then help Mister Fang share his burdens!"

The little girl's face was full of seriousness, filled with longing for her future life.

Ningguang's mother also gently stroked Little Ningguang's head, her gaze soft: "Yes, Mister Fang has helped our family too much,"

"If we have the chance, we must repay him..."

"Mhm, Ningguang will repay Brother Fang Xun~"

The little girl's voice was so tender, yet so earnest.

Chapter 29: Cloud Retainer Offers a Divine Assist

After performing the kowtow of thanks, the villagers were all relieved to have survived the great disaster.

While happy, the villagers' expressions also held some melancholy, That is, the village they lived in had been completely destroyed by the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard, Now the villagers didn't even have a place to live.

Going to Liyue Harbor to buy a house was obviously unrealistic, Liyue's prices were too high; it was simply not a place that poor folk like them could afford to live.

And rebuilding houses was not an easy task for the villagers either, Not to mention the time and effort it would take, The most important thing was the lack of a large amount of lumber.

Even if they cut down all the surrounding trees, it wouldn't be enough to fill the gaps for rebuilding the entire village.

Without lumber, they would have to buy it on the market, This led back to the original problem, No money.

Thinking of this, the villagers couldn't help but sigh mournfully, Losing their homes also meant they would have to live exposed to the elements, and even the simplest life had become a problem.

Little Ningguang watched this scene, feeling very uneasy.

This was because many families in the village had helped her and her mother before, The doctor who treated her didn't charge any consultation fees, The neighbors often sent fresh vegetables to keep the mother and daughter from going hungry.

And many, many others, They had all taken care of Ningguang's family in their own ways, silently.

Now seeing everyone homeless and worried, Ningguang felt an indescribable sense of loss and sadness, She really wanted to help everyone, but she was powerless.

After all, she still owed Fang Xun a lot of Mora and hadn't repaid it, She simply couldn't come up with any Mora.

Fang Xun also sensed Little Ningguang's dejected mood, He immediately knew that Ningguang was saddened by the villagers' plight.

In response, Fang Xun gently stroked Ningguang's forehead and softly said, "Little girl, I'm going to give you a task now."

"Brother Fang Xun, what task is it?"

Little Ningguang put away her sadness, blinked her big, watery eyes, and looked at Fang Xun curiously.

"Your friends here are all homeless. I can pay two million Mora to help them rebuild their houses, but I have one condition,"

"That is, they must work for me, and the wages they earn will be used to offset the cost of repairing their homes."

"As for what work they will do after becoming my employees, that will be entirely up to you to arrange. I will only look at the final results. Do you understand?"

This was an excellent opportunity to make money, and Fang Xun naturally wouldn't let it pass.

He would pay to have these villagers' houses rebuilt, This would not only trigger his talent 'What is scattered will return', But also improve Ningguang's favorability, It looked like a surefire win-win situation.

Ningguang possessed an excellent business acumen, but she hadn't had the opportunity to fully utilize it before.

Fang Xun, naturally, had to start cultivating the little girl's business skills gradually, so that she could comfortably become a hands-off manager in the future.

Hearing Fang Xun's words, Ningguang's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.

"Eh?? Brother Fang Xun is willing to pay to repair everyone's houses?"

"That's wonderful! I'm sure everyone will be happy to accept this job."

"However, what kind of work should I arrange for everyone?"

Despite her happiness, the little girl became a bit worried, arranging work for so many villagers wasn't an easy task.

Brother Fang Xun's mission was indeed challenging.

"What? Is there a problem?" Fang Xun asked with a smile.

"No problem, I promise to complete the mission!"

The little girl said in a childish voice, but her expression was very serious.

Soon, Ningguang walked to the center of the crowd and said earnestly to the villagers, "Everyone, uncles and aunties, please be quiet for a moment. I have something to say on behalf of Brother Fang Xun!"

The little girl already had the air of a secretary, at least she wasn't nervous at all when it came to work.

Upon hearing that it was Little Ningguang speaking, the villagers all quieted down in unison.

Everyone liked Little Ningguang because she was usually obedient and sensible.

Moreover, Ningguang had just saved them, a kindness the villagers remembered.

What's more, Ningguang was relaying Fang Xun's message, so they dared not disrespect the Immortal Master.

When the surroundings quieted down, Ningguang continued, "Brother Fang Xun said he is willing to pay two million Mora to rebuild our village,"

"but there's a condition: everyone must become Brother Fang Xun's employee, and use their earnings to offset the cost of rebuilding the houses."

"Are you all willing to sign this contract?"

The villagers had initially been worried about being homeless, but when they heard Fang Xun was willing to pay for the repairs, they were overjoyed.

"I don't know about others, but I'm willing!"

"Thank you, Immortal Master, you're truly a good person. Not only did you save us, but you're also willing to pay for the repairs here."

"We are also willing to follow the Immortal Master!"

Unsurprisingly, almost all the villagers agreed to sign the contract with Fang Xun.

After all, they didn't even have a place to live right now, who could think about the future?

Furthermore, Fang Xun was kind-hearted and possessed great power, so everyone was willing to work for him.

Meanwhile, Little Ningguang's words reached the ears of Cloud Retainer, who was some distance away.

Cloud Retainer was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected Fang Xun to be willing to pay for the village's reconstruction.

"I didn't expect Fang Xun to have such a benevolent act in his heart; it truly exceeds my expectations."

"There aren't many merchants like this in Liyue these days who care for the people."

"This Fang Xun, the more I look at him, the more I find him quite admirable."

Soon, Cloud Retainer spread her wings and left.

She turned and flew towards Liyue Harbor, heading directly to where Ganyu worked.

Hearing a commotion outside the window, Ganyu subconsciously looked up.

Seeing Cloud Retainer's arrival, Ganyu was very surprised.

"Mas- Master, why have you come?"

Cloud Retainer snorted haughtily and then said, "Ganyu, despite you working tirelessly every day and caring for Liyue,"

"you don't even know about the Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard incident in Guili Plains? Do you know that an entire village was almost harmed?"

"Wha- what?" Ganyu exclaimed upon hearing this and quickly stood up from her chair, her expression filled with tension.

That Ancient Rock Dragon Lizard was no ordinary monster.
