Genshin Impact: Starting from Liyue to Build Infrastructure

When Azhdaha came to Takumi's side, he had already learned about the functions of identification documents from Hu Tao.

After listening to Hu Tao's explanation, Azhdaha was astonished. No wonder that shopkeeper had immediately reported him to the Qianyan Army. Without an ID card, it was nearly impossible to move around freely in Liyue nowadays.

Even for foreigners, the harbor authorities would start the process of issuing a temporary certificate upon arrival. This document served as an access pass, granting permission to move freely within Liyue. Without it, the Qianyan Army had the right to detain individuals. If they were caught and had no way to prove their identity, they would be temporarily locked up until someone could vouch for them.

Azhdaha sighed. This was just bad luck. No ID, no freedom.

"Yo, Takumi!!"

"I brought you a 'black household.' He was almost captured by the Qianyan Army."

As soon as Hu Tao entered, she called out to Takumi. Hearing Hu Tao's words, Takumi looked up and, upon seeing Azhdaha, he couldn't help but laugh.

"You almost got caught?" Takumi was a little surprised. What bad luck.

Hearing Takumi's remark, Azhdaha's expression darkened.

"Just help me get an ID card."

Takumi nodded without hesitation. "Alright! I'll process the paperwork. You'll have to go outside to finish the formalities."

The registration machines had been moved outside, meaning Azhdaha would need to complete the process externally. Hearing this, Azhdaha nodded. Takumi then started handling the necessary procedures. He registered Azhdaha's identity in the system and, when filling in the address, simply wrote down 'Nantianmen.'

Once the processing was complete, Takumi handed Azhdaha a printed document.

"Just take this outside and find an official. They'll guide you through the rest."

Taking the document, Azhdaha thanked Takumi and left to finalize his registration.

After he left, Hu Tao began retelling the entire story to Takumi.

"Let me tell you, it was hilarious! Azhdaha wanted to exchange some ore for money so he could buy a house. But the shopkeeper realized he had no ID or bank card and assumed he was a member of the Treasure Hoarders. So, he immediately reported him to the Qianyan Army. If I hadn't shown up, you might have had to track him down yourself!"

Hearing Hu Tao's words, Takumi was speechless. "Thank you so much."

Takumi sighed internally. There was nothing to say—Azhdaha was just really unlucky.

Hu Tao didn't leave right away. Instead, she stayed in Takumi's office, while Takumi focused on his computer. He paid little attention to Hu Tao.

Right now, Takumi was editing footage recorded by Paimon. Unfortunately, Paimon wasn't great at capturing video, so Takumi had a lot of editing work to do. If all the recorded footage was compiled properly, it could practically become a TV series.

Perhaps he should train Lumine to become a superstar? Let Lumine make her debut!

With that thought, Takumi began editing seriously. Hu Tao, meanwhile, curiously peeked over his shoulder. Seeing the footage on the screen, she was confused.

Lumine?

With deep curiosity, she continued watching in silence. It seemed quite interesting.

While Hu Tao was amusing herself, Azhdaha successfully completed his ID registration.

Now that he had his ID card, Azhdaha went to another ore shop to sell some high-quality stones. However, because the stones were too valuable, the shopkeeper requested a bank transfer. But Azhdaha didn't have a bank account.

With no other choice, the shopkeeper accompanied Azhdaha to the bank. Once the transaction was completed, Azhdaha had over ten million Mora in his possession.

When it came to making money, Azhdaha was leagues ahead of Zhongli.

With money in hand, Azhdaha began house hunting. He didn't need a fancy villa—just a comfortable place to stay. He wasn't picky about his living conditions, nor was he accustomed to Zhongli's lifestyle.

He found an ordinary private house, contacted the owner, and bought it outright.

After securing a place to live, Azhdaha went on a shopping spree in Liyue Harbor. He bought everything from a mobile phone to furniture and household necessities.

Now that he had recovered, he planned to live like an ordinary person. Liyue seemed quite interesting these days.

With that in mind, Azhdaha continued his shopping spree.

When Zhongli ran into Azhdaha again, he was surprised to see him directing movers to transport items into a house.

Zhongli instantly understood what was happening. Azhdaha had decided to settle down.

Thinking this, the corners of Zhongli's mouth lifted slightly, and he approached.

Seeing Zhongli, Azhdaha didn't hesitate. "Come and help me out."

With Zhongli's assistance, Azhdaha quickly arranged his new home.

"This will be my home from now on. If you ever need anything, feel free to visit."

Looking at the house, Azhdaha was satisfied.

Hearing this, Zhongli glanced at him and asked, "Have you decided to stay here permanently?"

Azhdaha nodded. "Of course. I've realized that Liyue is quite fun—especially the internet."

Saying this, he pulled out his newly bought phone.

After getting a phone, he had learned how to use it and had quickly become addicted to it. The online world fascinated him. People on the internet were entertaining, and their conversations were amusing.

So, he decided he would spend his days at home surfing the web.

Seeing this, Zhongli was momentarily speechless. 

Well, if that's what he wanted, so be it.

Shaking his head, Zhongli didn't comment further. Maybe this was for the best.

Since it was getting late, he invited Azhdaha out for dinner.

Nowadays, Zhongli was still wealthy, so he could afford to treat people to meals. Thanks to the Mora Ningguang had given him, he could maintain this lifestyle for a while. Of course, his collection of antiques was also growing, and it wouldn't be long before his funds were depleted again.

Perhaps one day, Zhongli would have to rely on handouts once more.

Ahem… The Geo Archon probably wouldn't go that far.

Back to reality—Zhongli and Azhdaha went out to eat.

Meanwhile, Takumi finally finished editing "Lumine's Adventure Story."

Looking at the completed video on his screen, Takumi nodded in satisfaction.
