I'm a male god in Liyue

Page 857

Qin thought about it and agreed, but all the reasons she had prepared to persuade this seemingly unreliable Wind God were useless.

"Then after I finish eating, I'll go and ask Mr. Xia for advice on his experience in starting a school."

"Just asking for advice?"

"Ok?"

“My dear friend isn’t just an ordinary blind man on the surface. You might as well try to build a better relationship with him; it would be beneficial for both you and Mondstadt.” Wendy’s words carried a deeper meaning.

"So, what does Lord Wind God mean?"

"Why not let him join in the process of establishing the school?"

"Would Mr. Xia be willing to do this?"

"Oh, don't I know my best friend well enough? He'll definitely agree to something this interesting. We could let him be the principal of this school too."

"Lord Wind God, won't you accept the position?"

"I'm just a wandering bard with no fixed abode. What qualifications do I have to be a principal? I'd probably be criticized, and no one would want to send their child to a school run by an alcoholic," Wendy waved her hand, refusing.

Qin couldn't help but silently complain to herself, "So you know your image isn't good right now."

"But my close friend is different. First, he is indeed capable. Second, he already founded a school in Liyue, so it is only natural for him to open a branch school in Mondstadt. This makes him more convincing and will encounter less resistance."

Wendy changed the subject and said...

"Of course, more importantly, once he has this status, he will definitely come to Mondstadt more often in the future, and then we can go and mooch off him for meals and drinks again."

"...Lord Wind God, please don't joke around."

"Alright, alright, I agree to this. I don't have any other requests, just this one: bring Mr. Xia into this. You should be able to do that, right?"

"I will try my best to persuade Mr. Xia."

"Ah."

“Lord Wind God, you could be a teacher even if you don’t become the principal.”

"Then how about becoming a music teacher? You'll get paid, right?"

"……certainly."

Wendy nodded in satisfaction and returned to the Dragon King's side.

The Dragon King asked, "Why are you so happy again?"

Wendy laughed and said, "Now we'll have a stable source of money for drinks."

The Dragon King pressed for an answer out of curiosity.

Wendy then briefly explained the situation at Mondstadt School.

The Dragon King nodded and said, "I see. I'll be the gatekeeper, and you'll be the teacher. We'll all have a bright future."

The two raised their glasses and drank heartily.

Wendy put down her cup, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "How much do you get paid a month as a gatekeeper at Liyue Academy?"

The Dragon King replied, "A contract was signed. I remember it said it was 10,000 Mora per month."

"Seize the young master?"

"A basic wage of 10,000 moras."

"You just sit at the door and stare blankly all day, and they still give you 10,000 a month?"

"Actually, it's more than ten thousand. If there's overtime patrolling at night, it's double pay. We get weekends off with the students, meals are provided in the cafeteria, and dormitories are provided. We also get winter and summer vacations. That's how the security guards are paid. The teachers' salaries are much higher..."

"do not talk!"

Wendy looked at him with a serious expression.

Do you think I still have a chance?

"what chance?"

"Is your school still short of music teachers? I don't care about the salary, what I really want is to work with you two best friends!"

The Dragon King glanced at him twice and shook his head.

"It's lacking, but I'm afraid you can't do it."

"how?"

"The vice principal won't agree."

Which vice principal?

The one sitting across from you.

Wendy looked up and saw Xia Ci looking at her with a half-smile.

"..."

He sighed and said, "Never mind, we'll have our own school in Mondstadt. It'll be nice to be a music teacher here."

Xia Ci laughed and said, "Why does it taste a little sour?"

Wendy changed the subject and asked, "I heard that the school over there is built in the sky."

Xia Ci nodded and said, "Yes, it is a large piece of Mingxia Floating Life Stone."

Venti remarked, "You Liyue people are really rich."

Xia Ci smiled and said, "Right? You're planning to do that too?"

Wendy shook her head and said, "No, it's boring."

"Just say you don't have money."

"I just feel that's too flashy, so I'm going to keep it simple and plain."

"how to do?"

"Let's build a small island in the fruit wine lake."

"You're not Morax, how can you create an island out of thin air in the water?"

"Hey, that's easy. You know about the islands and reefs east of Cape Oath, right?"

"Musk Reef?"

"Yes, I used to use that... oh right, it was something I got from the Peak of Pointed Hat. I'll just do it again. That would be another display of the Wind God's miracle, and I'm sure this would add some more mystery to the school, right?"

Dinner was as lively and crowded as ever.

Let's all raise our glasses and wish Yura a bright future, and the Pet Tavern a successful opening.

Xiangling has been diligently studying the "Book of Learned Scholars" these past two days and has successfully mastered the new skill of "Master Chef," so tonight she will be the head chef in place of her master, Xia Zhi.

She finally created the summer version of "God Jumps Over the Wall" that she had always wanted to try.

Then, as the head chef, she naturally made a special special meal for her pet companion, Guoba, and cooked extra for it.

Xiangling did this not simply to satisfy Guoba's gluttonous desires, but because this dish contained a mysterious power that could help Guoba regain his original intelligence and strength more quickly.

Midway through the meal, Xia Zhi glanced at the rice crust from God's perspective and noticed that it had gained a platinum progress bar.

This means that its strength has now recovered to the level of an immortal.

It took a little longer than Qiqi.

After all, Qiqi had specifically cultivated the magic technique.

However, Guoba has now also mastered the art of meditation.

Its recovery speed will increase in the future, and it shouldn't be long before it returns to its original demon god level.

Since Xiangling made dinner, it wasn't really Xia Zhi "feeding" Guoba. Without any interaction between them, Guoba's eating progress bar didn't increase at all.

Xia Zhi wasn't in a hurry, since Guoba was right beside him and he could use it anytime.

After dinner, we chatted for a while.

Qin came to find Xia Zhi and told him about school.

Xia Zhi was a little surprised: "Director Qin wants to ask me for advice on my experience in founding a school?"

Qin nodded and said, "Yes, I want to take advantage of the few days that Mr. Xia is still in Mondstadt to get the school's framework in place first."

Xia Zhi thought for a moment and asked, "What did the West Wind Church say? They can't be avoided for such an important matter, right?"

Qin replied, "I have already consulted with the Wind God. With the Wind God's approval, there is no need to consider the church's opinion."

Xia Zhi nodded: "I see. Then let me tell you about it."

Qin took out her phone and turned on the recording function, which was much easier to use than a traditional notepad.

The two discussed various issues related to the school.

Xia Zhi discovered that many of the things Qin asked were actually quite relevant, even though she had never been to Liyue's school.

Seeing Xia Zhi's confusion, Qin explained, "Actually, Miss Ningguang already had a video chat with me today and gave me a brief introduction to the school."

Xia Zhi understood: "I see."
