Chapter 13: I'm Talking About Venti, What Does Barbatos Have to Do With It?
Whether to become an Honorary Knight, Jiang Chen will decide.
"Is there a salary?"
Jiang Chen looked at Lisa, and he quickly understood what she was thinking.
After pondering for a second, he asked this question.
He definitely wouldn't do it; if anyone should, it's Lumine.
After all, Lumine is looking for her brother.
Facing Jiang Chen's inquiry, Lumine's eyes lit up.
Is Jiang Chen planning to get a monthly income from Mondstadt?
Seems pretty good.
"Yes~!"
"How about it?"
"Want to join?"
Lisa didn't expect Jiang Chen to ask this.
However, they can afford that bit of salary.
"I'll pass."
"If anyone's joining, let Lumine join."
"Lumine is looking for her brother, so she'll inevitably interact with you."
"So, being an Honorary Knight isn't bad."
"As for me, forget it."
Jiang Chen spread his hands.
He has no interest in being an Honorary Knight or anything like that.
Hearing Jiang Chen say this, Lisa felt somewhat regretful.
What she wanted most was for Jiang Chen to join.
While Lumine was completely baffled.
What the heck?
Jiang Chen isn't joining, but she should?
"You're not joining?"
What's going on?
Feels like Jiang Chen is setting her up?
"I'll pass."
"I'm used to being free and unfettered."
"If I become an Honorary Knight, I'll definitely have to help out whenever something happens in Mondstadt."
"After all, the salary isn't that easy to earn."
"So... I'd rather not get involved in such things."
"But you, Lumine, can."
Jiang Chen honestly expressed his thoughts.
If he can avoid getting involved, he absolutely will.
Nothing more to say.
If something happens in Mondstadt in the future and they ask the Honorary Knight for help or something.
Just thinking about it is annoying.
So, let Lumine handle it.
"Ah this..."
Lumine was instantly dumbfounded.
She suddenly felt it was too troublesome.
Moreover, is Jiang Chen setting her up?
From Jiang Chen's words just now, she smelled a rat!!
"Lumine!!"
"Let's become Honorary Knights!!"
"We can get a salary every month."
However, the mouthpiece of the gods did not disappoint.
She directly helped Lumine accept the task.
"If it's Miss Lumine, that's fine too."
"There's a monthly salary of 50,000 Mora."
"Even if you don't have to do anything, you can still receive it."
Lisa looked at Paimon, then smiled and stated the benefits.
"Really?"
"Then Lumine and I will join!!"
"Jiang Chen, you should join too, you can get 50,000 Mora every month!!"
"That can buy a lot of food."
Paimon not only helped Lumine agree.
She even wanted to drag Jiang Chen along.
Hearing Paimon's words, Jiang Chen and Lumine rolled their eyes in annoyance.
"I'll pass."
"If you need me for something in the future, you can just pay me."
"As long as you pay, I'm willing to help out then."
"So forget about being an Honorary Knight."
A mere 50,000 Mora to buy him off?
No way!
Lumine thought for a moment, then looked at Jiang Chen.
She thought about what Jiang Chen had just said.
In the future, she will have to interact with the Knights of Favonius to find her brother.
If she becomes an Honorary Knight, wouldn't that be more helpful?
After figuring this out, Lumine nodded.
"Then I'll join."
Although it's a pity Jiang Chen isn't joining.
But to find her brother, she'll join.
Hearing Lumine's words, Lisa also smiled and nodded.
Then her gaze turned to Jiang Chen again.
"Handsome~!"
"Really not considering it?"
"Our Knights of Favonius have great benefits."
"Not only is there the cute Amber, but also the beautiful Acting Grand Master Jean, and even me, your big sister~!"
"Aren't you tempted?"
Lisa felt she could still try.
She really wants Jiang Chen to join.
"No!"
"Let's forget it."
Becoming an Honorary Knight is not as good as becoming a consultant at Wangsheng Funeral Parlor!!
Jiang Chen still thinks Liyue is more appealing.
Keqing, Ningguang, Yelan, Hu Tao, Qiqi, Shenhe, Ganyu, Cloud Retainer... these are even more appealing.
Moreover, Ningguang is a super rich woman.
Cat-eared Keqing is also cuter.
So, Jiang Chen chooses Liyue!
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen's gaze became firm.
Seeing this, Lisa felt even more regretful.
"Alright then!"
Sigh, what a pity. Jiang Chen still didn't agree.
There's no helping it.
Acting Grand Master Jean also felt it was a pity, but now it's not good to say more.
Jiang Chen has clearly refused.
Inviting further would only annoy him.
After thinking for a moment, she took out a large deposit check from her Vision.
"Although you're not joining the Knights, please accept this token of our appreciation."
Jean placed the check in front of Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen and Lumine's eyes were immediately drawn to the amount on the check.
Ten million!
Seeing this amount, Jiang Chen and Lumine's eyes lit up.
"Ah, you're too kind."
Saying this, Jiang Chen's actions were not slow.
He directly took the check.
Lisa watched this scene with interest.
A money lover.
However, that's fine.
If there's really something for Jiang Chen to do in the future, spending money can solve it.
At this moment, Lumine was also excited inside.
We have money!!
"Wow!"
"How many zeros is this?"
Paimon leaned in to see the amount on the check, her eyes widened.
How much delicious food can this buy!!
That's way too much money!
Acting Grand Master Jean couldn't help but find Paimon's reaction amusing.
Ten million Mora isn't actually much.
Of course, that's for the Knights of Favonius.
For ordinary people, ten million Mora is a lifetime of hard work.
Jiang Chen put away the check.
He'll go exchange it at the Northland Bank later.
With this sum of money, Jiang Chen won't have to worry about money for a while.
He can even buy a house in Liyue.
Earn money in Mondstadt, then settle in Liyue.
Perfect!
If Jean knew Jiang Chen's thoughts, would she regret giving him the money?
After all, this time she was indeed quite generous.
Putting away the check, Jiang Chen thought for a moment, then spoke:
"If you're looking for the Anemo Archon, I suggest you look for a guy named Venti."
Hearing this, Lumine and Paimon were instantly dumbfounded, looking at Jiang Chen.
Didn't you promise not to reveal his affairs?
Jean and Lisa were also stunned.
"Venti?"
"Does he know where the Anemo Archon is?"
Jean was instantly intrigued.
"Yes!"
"He knows."
"When we first met him, he was with Dvalin."
Jiang Chen explained seriously.
There's nothing wrong with that.
When they first met, he was indeed comforting Dvalin.
Moreover... Jiang Chen is talking about Venti, not Barbatos.
So it's not really exposing Barbatos's identity.
"Is that so?"
"We understand."
"We'll look for this person next."
Getting this information was an unexpected joy for Jean.
