### Chapter 21: Want Me to Deposit Money? Not a Chance
Diluc poured a glass of grape juice for Jiang Chen and the others.
This was a product of the Dawn Winery.
And it tasted absolutely fantastic.
"Are you planning to sell that bottle of wine to me?"
After sitting down, Diluc looked at Jiang Chen with great interest.
He understood what Jiang Chen meant by bringing out that bottle of wine.
Jiang Chen wasn't here to give a gift.
He was here to sell something.
"Exactly."
"Interested?"
"If you are, I can transfer it to you."
"This is a fine wine treasured by Barbatos."
Jiang Chen smiled as he took out the bottle of wine.
Seeing the wine Jiang Chen presented, Diluc carefully sensed it.
It indeed carried a unique Anemo energy.
The aura of the Anemo Archon was unmistakable.
"How much are you planning to sell it for?"
Since the other party wanted to sell, Diluc didn't mind buying.
His collection of items related to the Anemo Archon wasn't a secret in Mondstadt.
These two in front of him had probably heard about it from someone else, right?
That's why they came to him.
"Name your price."
"If it's suitable, I'll sell it to you."
"There's only one bottle. You should know how precious it is."
Jiang Chen didn't plan to waste time and directly asked Diluc to name his price.
As long as it was suitable, Jiang Chen would sell.
Although Jiang Chen still had several bottles in his possession,
He didn't plan to sell them all.
If he brought out all of them at once, they wouldn't be as valuable.
Scarcity increases value.
He just needed Diluc to name a good price.
Lumine and Paimon remained silent, quietly watching.
After hearing Jiang Chen's explanation,
Diluc looked at the bottle of wine in his hand, thought for a moment, and then offered his price.
"30 million!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.
He truly was Master Diluc.
His offer was incredibly generous.
Paimon and Lumine were also pleasantly surprised.
So high!
And this was just for one bottle.
Which meant the wine they had dug up earlier was worth several hundred million Mora?
Thinking of this, Paimon's eyes turned into Mora symbols.
This was simply amazing!
"50 million!"
Although Jiang Chen was surprised by the price Diluc offered,
He still decided to aim high.
Why not ask for more money if he could?
Diluc also frowned. 50 million?
Good grief... but it wasn't impossible.
Looking at the bottle of wine on the table, if he acquired it, the profits he could generate would be even greater.
Immediately, Diluc made his decision.
"Deal!"
He didn't want to haggle with Jiang Chen.
He directly agreed to the price.
After settling the deal, Diluc took out a check, quickly signed it, wrote the amount, and handed it to Jiang Chen.
"OK!"
"Pleasure doing business."
Jiang Chen smiled as he accepted the check.
This was very satisfying.
"Pleasure doing business."
"If you have more items like this in the future, feel free to contact me."
Although he had spent a lot more money, Diluc was happy.
As the saying goes, it's hard to buy something you truly love.
If Jiang Chen could get more in the future, he could contact Diluc again.
Moreover, Diluc suspected that Jiang Chen still had other good items in his possession.
That's why he added this remark.
"No problem!"
Hearing Diluc's words, Jiang Chen also agreed.
If he had more to sell in the future, he would definitely contact Diluc.
After all, aside from Mondstadt's richest man, no one else would buy this stuff.
Oh wait, there was one other place that might.
That would be the Church of Favonius.
If Jiang Chen took these bottles of wine to the Church of Favonius, Barbara would definitely pay.
But... Barbara probably wouldn't have that much money.
So, it was still best to go to Mondstadt's richest man.
Only by selling to him could Jiang Chen get a good price.
With the transaction completed and the check in hand, Jiang Chen felt very satisfied.
This deal left both parties very happy.
"Well, we'll take our leave now."
"Master Diluc, we'll see you again if the opportunity arises."
Jiang Chen nodded. He didn't say much else.
If there was a chance in the future, they could slowly build a relationship.
After bidding farewell, Jiang Chen took Lumine and left.
Once they stepped out of the Angel's Share, Paimon became excited.
"Wow!!"
"Jiang Chen, we're rich!!"
"We got so much money all at once."
At this moment, Paimon felt that she no longer had to worry about her future meals.
"We are indeed rich."
"Let's go exchange the money, and then we'll head to Diona's place."
After saying this, Jiang Chen led them toward the bank.
They arrived at the Northland Bank once again.
There were quite a lot of people here today.
Jiang Chen glanced around and immediately understood.
The Fatui had arrived.
However, this had nothing to do with Jiang Chen.
If they came to provoke him, Jiang Chen wouldn't mind twisting their heads off.
With this thought in mind, Jiang Chen went straight to the counter to exchange the money.
The teller naturally recognized Jiang Chen.
He had come here not long ago, using a check from the Knights of Favonius.
And now he was back again?
This time with a check from Diluc.
Although she was very surprised, the teller quickly exchanged the check for Jiang Chen.
50 million Mora was no small amount.
It filled five large boxes.
One box contained 10 million Mora.
After confirming there were no major issues, Jiang Chen accepted the money.
Just as Jiang Chen was about to leave, the teller called out to him.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, please wait a moment."
Hearing her words, Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.
"What is it?"
Jiang Chen turned to look at her.
Could it be that the Fatui had come looking for him?
Jiang Chen and the others had been very low-key.
Only the higher-ups of the Knights of Favonius knew about their involvement in resolving the dragon crisis.
No one else had any idea.
It couldn't be that their identities had been exposed,
And these guys knew he had interacted with the Anemo Archon, so they came looking for him.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, if you need, you can open an account with us."
"Our Northland..."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen directly interrupted her.
"Sorry, I don't need that."
"I prefer to keep my money with me."
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."
Deposit money in the Northland Bank?
Don't joke around.
You Fatui aren't exactly good people.
Jiang Chen wouldn't do that.
Once he got to Liyue and met Ningguang, he would definitely ask her to open a bank.
Just kidding.
How could you control the mint without a bank?
Mora was created using the power of Morax.
It was also the best alchemical material in this world.
Since Liyue controlled the mint, it would be a shame not to have a bank.
After saying this, Jiang Chen quickly left with Lumine and Paimon.
Seeing this, the teller felt quite frustrated.
Huh? There are actually people who don't want to deposit money in a bank?
This was quite frustrating.
In just two days, they had withdrawn so much Mora from the bank.
If this continued, the bank wouldn't have enough Mora left.
That's why she had wanted Jiang Chen to deposit some money.
But before she could even finish her sentence, she was rejected.
This left her feeling very helpless.
