When Takumi heard Ningguang say this, he suddenly remembered.
He really hadn't paid much attention to the development of Qingxu Pool.
After thinking for a moment, Takumi did not refuse.
"Let's go then."
"Go and take a look."
"It just so happens I'm free."
After that, Takumi looked at Shenhe as well.
"Shenhe, you too."
"Come with us."
Hearing this, Shenhe immediately nodded.
"Alright."
With that decided, they set off.
Ningguang didn't ask Takumi to open a spatial portal.
Instead, she planned to travel by motorcycle.
She wanted to enjoy the scenery along the way.
When Takumi heard that, he was suspicious.
Was she going to inspect work or simply play?
Takumi didn't know what to say for a moment.
But he didn't refuse.
"Hm… how about this? I'll get a small spaceship."
Takumi manifested a small spacecraft with his hands.
It was one of the newer designs—
a model soon to be mass-produced.
When Ningguang saw the small spaceship, her eyes brightened.
"Not bad."
"So this is the finished product?"
She examined it curiously.
Takumi nodded.
"Right."
"The production line is probably already being built."
"When these go on sale, they'll be like cars—spaceships flying everywhere."
He could already imagine how many people would buy them.
This small spacecraft was larger than a medium-sized truck.
It could carry plenty of cargo or passengers.
And the one Takumi made was practically a flying palace—
like taking a house into the sky.
Takumi opened the door and stepped into the cockpit.
Ningguang and Shenhe followed.
Inside, it was far more spacious than expected.
There was not only a sofa but even a place to sleep.
It was basically a miniature palace.
While they were still looking around, Takumi started the craft.
Seeing the rising view outside the window,
Ningguang and Shenhe were surprised.
It already took off?
Why did it feel like nothing?
Ningguang became curious about its performance.
It was impressive.
After observing a bit more, she sat in the co-pilot's seat.
"This spaceship shouldn't sell for less than a hundred million mora with this level of luxury."
Hearing that, Takumi laughed.
"No need to make it that expensive. A price around fifty million is fine."
"If it's too expensive, no one will buy it."
"Even though many people in Liyue have money, they won't spend heavily unless necessary."
"Those misers feel worse seeing others make money than losing money themselves."
"If the price is too high, many will simply give up."
Only the truly rich could afford such a thing.
Like helicopters in his previous life—
normal people couldn't afford them.
Ningguang nodded.
She glanced around the cockpit and smiled.
"I heard Diluc from Mondstadt already ordered two."
"One small, one medium."
"You two opened a beverage factory together, and his business is booming."
"It's enviable."
She narrowed her eyes at Takumi.
Although he didn't seem to run businesses directly,
he held many shares.
Internet companies, drinks, and more.
Even though most shares were held by Liyue,
Takumi still owned plenty.
Takumi shrugged.
"Even if I don't need money now—"
"If we have children in the future, we'll leave something for them."
"Even if we live very long lives."
"But maybe someday we'll retire and live quietly."
Hearing Takumi mention children, Ningguang rolled her eyes.
"Don't talk about that."
"So long and nothing has happened."
"I'm starting to doubt we can even have a child."
"And we clearly hit the target every time!"
She pursed her lips, frustrated.
Not only she—Shenhe, Keqing, the others—
none showed any signs.
She sighed.
They had no children, but their power was growing endlessly.
Ningguang felt the energy in her body.
She whispered inwardly.
She wasn't even a combatant.
Yet her current power was terrifying.
Now she could suppress Osial by herself.
All because of Takumi.
Takumi really was a treasure trove.
If other women knew,
they would rush toward him.
Thinking so, Ningguang chuckled.
It was a pity Takumi already belonged to them.
He was a bit playful,
but still within acceptable limits.
If he brought home a new woman every few days,
she would truly hit him.
At this moment, Shenhe approached as well.
While flying, Takumi chatted with both of them.
The spacecraft soon reached Liyue Harbor.
People below were shocked seeing it pass overhead.
Wasn't that the new flying machine?
Already finished?
Many people knew about the spacecraft models.
They talked about them frequently.
After all, the designs were very exciting.
Everything happening in Guili always drew attention.
So everyone knew the ship existed.
But production hadn't officially begun.
And yet here was one flying above them.
The one inside must be Lord Takumi.
People watched the ship zoom past.
Its speed was astonishing.
Perhaps even faster than fighter jets.
Recently, many fighter jets had also been flying around Liyue Harbor,
patrolling the mountains and forests.
Some people even saw images of aerial battles—
spectacular scenes.
As Liyue grew stronger,
pride filled the hearts of its people.
More and more people came to develop here.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Liyue was becoming the center of Teyvat.
