Chapter 25 - The Exquisite Jar Appears! Ningguang's Liyue Bank Shakes the World

[Host has received: 19 Common Jars, 1 Exquisite Jar.]

A new day broke, the dawn light piercing the sky to awaken the sleeping earth.

As Felix woke up, the system's notification rang in his ears.

He jolted awake instantly.

An Exquisite Jar! Finally!

With a thought, a sleek, lustrous jar appeared before him.

Compared to the rustic Common Jars, this one was visibly superior—smoother, shinier, radiating a faint aura of quality.

Unfortunately, he couldn't open it himself. And currently, no customer had unlocked the purchase rights for it.

Only those who bought a certain number of Common Jars could access the Exquisite tier.

But that didn't stop him from putting it on display!

Felix got out of bed, feeling refreshed. He quickly tidied up and went downstairs.

With a wave of his hand, twenty jars appeared silently on the shelves behind the counter.

The once-empty shelves were now stocked again.

And right at the top, sitting in the center like a king, was the oily, translucent Exquisite Jar.

Anyone with eyes could tell it was special.

"A beautiful day to start business."

"Ningguang is opening her bank today. She should be coming by to pull jars too. If she brings people with her, I could sell another dozen or so."

"Counting the other customers... aside from the Exquisite one, I should be able to clear the Common stock today."

"Just two more days until my Exclusive Jar."

Felix opened the shop door, a smile plastered on his face.

Selling jars was going smoothly.

He really had to thank Zhang for pulling that Vision. Without that free advertisement, business wouldn't be booming like this.

"Good morning, Shopkeeper."

As Felix opened the door, the two Millelith guards stationed outside greeted him respectfully.

"Hmm?"

Felix looked at them in surprise. "You guys are here again today?"

He thought they were just temporary security from yesterday.

"Yes. This is our permanent post now."

Seeing his surprise, the guards explained quickly. "From now on, our shifts are tied to your shop's hours. We're here to maintain order permanently."

"I see."

Felix nodded, realizing Ningguang's arrangement. He patted them on the shoulder. "If you ever want to open a jar, just let me know."

Millelith Guards: "..."

They stared at him with dark circles under their eyes.

We want to open jars too, but we're broke!

...

"The Liyue Bank is open! Everyone go!"

"Extra! Extra! Lady Ningguang's Liyue Bank is giving out welfare! Any Liyue citizen who deposits more than 50,000 Mora gets a free bag of rice and a barrel of oil! Over 100,000 gets even better gifts!"

"It's not just gifts! The more you save, the higher the interest! Lady Ningguang herself guarantees it! Go save your money now! Only benefits, no downsides!"

"My Archons, wait for me! I'm going too!"

...

On the streets, runners were shouting the news, and people were rushing out of their homes like a tide.

Even the shopkeeper across the street from Felix grabbed a money bag and sprinted out, abandoning his newly opened store.

Felix: "..."

Is it that crazy?

Watching the chaos, the corner of Felix's mouth twitched.

Ningguang's move had mobilized the entire population of Liyue.

He shook his head and lay back on his recliner, waiting for customers.

He knew Ningguang would come.

While Felix relaxed, chaos reigned in front of a grand, luxurious building near the Northland Bank.

A massive sign hung above the entrance: LIYUE BANK.

In just one night, they had renovated this massive structure.

Its location was strategic—right near the Northland Bank, but grander, newer, and more imposing.

"Everyone, this is the Liyue Bank Headquarters! But you don't need to come here for everything!"

At the entrance, a clerk shouted to the massive crowd. "All local money houses have been upgraded to Liyue Bank branches! They have staff ready to handle deposits and distribute gifts! If you can't wait, go there!"

"Please queue orderly! Do not push! The Liyue Bank will safeguard your Mora for free! The longer you save, the more interest you earn! We have contracts to guarantee it! Do not worry!"
