Takumi's words gave the young master a headache.
Let him make the decision?
Good grief!!
If Takumi was not satisfied, would he just refuse directly?
For a moment, the young master felt depressed.
After thinking about it, he simply stated the reserve price given by them.
"Five billion mora?"
Childe said it somewhat weakly.
Hearing this, Takumi's eyes immediately lit up.
"You guys are really tech-savvy!"
"This works!"
That was fine.
Originally, Takumi had planned to charge only two to three hundred million.
After all, he was just giving them a place to conduct research.
It was not a big deal.
He did not expect Childe to be so generous.
Earning five billion so easily was beyond expectations.
And when the young master saw Takumi agree so readily, it was his turn to feel uneasy.
Did he offer too much?
Otherwise, Takumi would not have agreed so decisively.
Childe muttered to himself for a while.
But then he thought about it again.
It was not his money anyway.
It was the Tsaritsa who was paying.
So it did not really hurt.
Thus, he stopped worrying about it.
"Then it's settled."
"When the time comes, I'll send people over, and you'll help send them up?"
After deciding this matter, Childe said so.
Hearing this, Takumi shook his head.
"There's no need to make it that troublesome."
"When the time comes, I'll send people to pick them up directly from Snezhnaya."
"Going up will be simple."
After all, with that much money paid, providing pick-up and drop-off services was only reasonable.
Hearing this, the young master's eyes lit up again.
"That works."
With this, he could report back properly.
They even provided transportation, so what more could one ask for?
Was five billion mora worth it?
Anyway, Childe felt it was completely worth it.
For a while, he was extremely satisfied.
The two sat together and chatted.
Not long after, the waiter brought the dishes.
Since it was Childe's treat, a lavish meal was unavoidable.
After eating and drinking their fill, Takumi bid farewell to Childe and left.
Childe also returned to report the matter.
In any case, it was settled.
Let the wealthy spend their money.
When Takumi returned to the manor, his account received the five billion mora transferred by Childe.
Takumi looked at the notification on his phone.
He immediately gave a thumbs-up.
"That was fast!"
Ningguang and keqing were puzzled.
"What happened?"
They looked at the message on Takumi's phone.
Who sent him money?
"Snezhnaya wants to cooperate with Liyue."
"They are very interested in the space station and want to conduct some experiments there."
"So they paid the money, and we'll provide them with some laboratories."
"That's it."
"Five billion to rent a few labs."
"Well, including round-trip transport."
"It's not too flattering, right?"
Hearing Takumi's words, Ningguang and keqing were stunned.
"So you just earned five billion?"
"That was too easy!"
"What about asking other countries if they're interested too?"
Ningguang immediately became interested.
She had some understanding of the space station situation.
The station itself was already huge.
And Vill-V had expanded it further.
So it was even larger now.
Not to mention the unused space, there was plenty left.
If all of it were rented out, a lot of money could be made.
There were still several countries left.
If each paid five billion, just thinking about it felt absurdly profitable.
So Ningguang was eager.
She was very interested in anything that could make money.
Although no new cities would be built this year,
the focus was on improving existing urban systems.
Still, there were many areas that required funding.
Making more money would be great.
Moreover, she also wanted to expand the Jade Chamber.
Turning it completely into a sky island would cost a fortune.
So earning more money was definitely a good thing.
Takumi also began to think after hearing Ningguang.
It did seem feasible.
"Well, we can ask when there's a chance."
Takumi was interested too.
This was workable.
It was time to ask them.
If they were truly interested, cooperation would be fine.
Making money was nothing to be shy about.
"Nuwa, tomorrow send this matter to the other countries."
"Ask them if they're interested."
Takumi made his decision.
He directly instructed Nuwa.
Have it inform the other nations tomorrow.
Ask about their intentions.
At the same time, Nuwa was told to mention that Snezhnaya had already joined.
The money had been transferred.
Five billion mora, including round-trip transport.
Let Nuwa record all of this.
Takumi was extremely pleased.
As long as someone was willing to participate, Liyue would make a lot of money.
This extra income could be arranged properly.
Takumi then chatted with Ningguang and the others about other matters.
"The subway will open tomorrow. Do you want to go see it?"
keqing brought it up.
As Takumi had mentioned before, they would attend in person.
Hearing this, Takumi nodded.
"Alright!"
"I'll go with you tomorrow."
The route from Liyue Port to Guiliyuan would officially open.
This was a major milestone.
Next, the subway from Guiliyuan to Cuijuepo and then to Jueyunjian would also open.
Once completed, the loop connecting the layered rock abyss through Cuikuaipo would be formed.
That layout would be perfect.
Of course, aside from that, a direct subway line would also be built.
In addition, a subway leading to Qingce Village would be constructed.
Although Qingce Village would not undergo large-scale development,
and would largely remain as it was,
transport infrastructure still needed to be improved.
All of this had already been planned.
At the very least, it would make travel easier for Qingce Village residents.
Now many young people there had returned to farming.
So the population was quite stable.
It was a quiet and peaceful place.
Improving infrastructure there was absolutely necessary.
After confirming everything, Takumi got up to wash and rest.
The next day, Takumi attended the opening ceremony with keqing and the others.
The travel time between Liyue Port and Guiliyuan would be greatly reduced.
In the future, commuting between the two would no longer be troublesome.
This was extremely convenient for the people of Liyue Port.
So the opening ceremony attracted a great deal of attention.
After the event concluded, operations officially began.
Takumi and the others no longer needed to oversee the details.
The people below would handle everything.
Takumi and the others then turned their attention to the next task.
On Nuwa's side, the notices Takumi mentioned the previous night were sent out early.
Sumeru, Inazuma, Mondstadt, and other nations all received invitations from Takumi.
They were all somewhat confused.
But after thinking it over, was this actually feasible?
