Because his bank card was frozen, Baiyu had to change his plans and go to the embassy to see Count Garland to find out what exactly was happening in the East Prosperity Imperial.
The only one who can understand the East Prosperity Imperial now, that's Garland.
He is the ambassador.
The most knowledgeable about the situation in the East Prosperity Imperial.
Without hesitation, Baiyu prepared briefly and then directly boarded the train heading to the embassy.
In the Great City.
Even taking a car or taking a walk requires extre vigilance.
You never know.
The driver might take out a waterlon knife from behind and do so side robbery work.
In the Great City.
There are many old hands of the criminal world from all over the world.
The taxi fare is not expensive.
Just five Copper Snake Coins.
Baiyu generously gave the driver a Silver Snake Coin, and then ate a bowl of extrely flavorful spicy hot pot by the roadside.
The total cost was two Silver Snake Coins.
Only then did Baiyu realize the purchasing power of the Silver Snake Coin.
For sothing like spicy hot pot, a al usually costs only so dozens of Copper Snake Coins, whereas one Silver Snake Coin is equal to a hundred Copper Snake Coins.
After eating and drinking his fill.
Baiyu stepped into the East Victory Imperial embassy.
Unexpectedly, Garland was hosting a group of guests.
There were five people in this group, dressed in green robes, with a symbol of a tree of nature printed on the back of their robes.
Life Sect.
In the Great City, there are countless sects, so nurous they practically overlap.
Life Sect is one of these sects.
They worship the God of Life and Eternity, who has many nas and is followed by many other sects.
The Domain they primarily control is the aspect of life, health, and longevity.
And longevity.
Is almost sothing everyone pursues.
This results in the God of Life and Eternity having a large number of followers.
As Baiyu entered the embassy, Count Garland also noticed him and gestured for him to sit nearby.
Baiyu saw this and sat aside.
The Life Sect mbers had no objections and continued their conversation from earlier.
"Ms. Garland, this shipnt is very important. We must use it at the next sect ritual.
Our newly appointed Grand High Priest needs to pray for the Father's blessing to obtain his rightful High Priest identity."
One leading mber of the Life Sect said.
He was filled with an abundant aura of life, with surging power hidden beneath the green robe.
These are typical characteristics of a follower of the God of Life and Eternity.
Count Garland nodded with a smile: "Rest assured, everything will follow the previous procedures. We've cooperated so many tis, I believe everyone knows each other well by now."
"Yes, Count Garland, I can trust. That's why for this very important mission, we ca to you first for help."
Having said that.
The Life Sect mber placed the briefcase in their hand into Count Garland's hands.
Count Garland did not shy away.
Opened it in front of everyone.
Inside was stack after stack of Gold Snake banknotes, each with a denomination of one hundred. Although the briefcase was not full, it contained at least tens of thousands of Gold Snakes.
One Gold Snake is equal to one hundred Silver Snakes, equal to ten thousand Copper Snakes.
And ten thousand Copper Snake Coins are enough for a family of three to live for a year.
Thus it can be seen.
The Life Sect is extrely generous.
After accepting the money, Count Garland exchanged a few more pleasantries with the Life Sect mbers, then warmly saw them off.
Once these people completely left.
Count Garland finally turned to Baiyu and explained: "Our embassy has not received imperial funding for five years now. To maintain operations up to today, I've had to find so ways myself.
Taking advantage of the embassy's convenience.
Helping others transport goods, smuggling so things."
Baiyu nodded, showing understanding.
Count Garland's actions were not for him to judge, but the fact that they hadn't received imperial funding for five years was rather pitiful.
Logically speaking.
The Imperial party shouldn't be this way.
"Are you confused?"
Count Garland smiled bitterly: "The Imperial is not as glorious as you think. Many places are actually particularly difficult, and the finances are not so ample.
In addition, within the nation.
Factions are nurous, the aristocracy is deeply rooted, and the situation is extrely complex.
And in these years, the Imperial has been continuously warring with foreign tribes, consuming a lot of national power, so there's no money left to manage these things."
From Count Garland's tone, Baiyu sensed deep helplessness.
Baiyu wasn't very knowledgeable about the situation in the Imperial, nor did he have a way to solve it.
After chatting idly with Count Garland for a mont, Baiyu brought up the matter of the Third Prince freezing his savings card.
Count Garland's expression wasn't very good: "There are generally two reasons for such a situation: either the chamber of comrce has gone bankrupt or the savings party has had issues.
Based on the current view.
There is likely a situation with the Third Prince.
Currently within the East Prosperity Imperial, power handovers are taking place. This is not surprising during such tis, you can't do anything by worrying now. Wait a few dozen days, and it'll be the storm season of the Great City, when winds strong enough to tear flesh fill the hundreds of miles outside the city, making it difficult as anything to leave."
Count Garland advised.
Being also from the East Prosperity Imperial, she naturally didn't want Baiyu to leave, especially since Yao Shuii previously warned that if Baiyu encountered issues, she too would hold responsibility.
"Understood, I won't return before finishing my studies."
Of course Baiyu couldn't leave.
The natural environnt in the Great City is quite peculiar, unlike other places with four seasons of spring, sumr, autumn, and winter. Instead, it's divided into storm season, cold rain season, and growth season.
Aside from growth season.
The other two seasons have very harsh environnts.
Since Garland didn't know the situation of the East Prosperity Imperial, Baiyu had no choice but to return to school again.
Before leaving.
He went to see the Moon Lady and Cang Yan, both living well in the embassy; the Moon Lady had reached Sequence Seven and was planning a breakthrough to Sequence Six.
Earlier.
Baiyu already prepared the material for her.
Once the Moon Lady is ready, he can advance with her to beco a Sequence Six Extraordinary.
Baiyu was just about to return to school.
At the school entrance, he unexpectedly saw a not very familiar but deeply morable figure.
Jie Shanlie.
Or maybe called Liu Xiang.
Although it's unclear which of the two nas is their real na, this person is indeed the one the client wants investigated.
He was at a Martial Arts Dojo outside the school, seemingly learning Fighting Skill from the dojo master.
Baiyu secretly noted his outing ti.
Generally, visiting places like a Martial Arts Dojo have fixed agreed tis and don't change randomly.
After recording this information.
Baiyu headed towards the Martial Arts Dojo, preparing for close contact, to carefully understand this mission target without startling them.
Celestial Eagle Martial Arts Dojo.
That's the na of this Martial Arts Dojo.
At this mont.
Jie Shanlie was sparring with a Master in the dojo, both sides fighting evenly matched.
