Chapter 1424: Six Years of Cultural Power
Charlotte appeared, dressed and equipped with tools.
Video recorder, voice recorder, notebook and pen...
Charlotte came forward and said, "Brahma, I'm all packed, let's go!"
Jing Fantian nodded, grabbed Charlotte's hand and flew towards the horizon.
Keqing smiled as she watched Jing Fantian and Charlotte's disappearing shadows, then walked downstairs. She also wanted to continue her work.
After they flew far away, Jing Fantian revealed his true colors and hugged Charlotte tightly in his arms.
"Charlotte, can you let me take over?"
"Charlotte's resentment, +100 constellation points."
"Brahma, no, Your Highness, what do you want to do?"
Jing Fantian hugged Charlotte's neck and said as if he had hit a tile: "Charlotte, you don't have to call me Your Highness anymore, you can call me by my name."
Charlotte wanted to die. She knew that this was a lecherous dragon but still approached him. Wasn't this just prey coming right to her door?
"Come on, call my name!"
“Brahma…Brahma!”
Jing Fantian immediately felt refreshed: "I want you to call my name every day."
"Charlotte's resentment, +100 constellation points."
It was over. Charlotte felt that she would never be able to face anyone in her life. Fortunately, no one around saw it.
"Charlotte, hold on tight."
"well……"
……
Charlotte took many photos of Jing Fantian transforming into a rock dragon to build the canal. No matter how many times she saw it, Charlotte felt that dragons were creatures that were not majestic enough for humans to understand.
Just lying down is as high as a small mountain. When it gets violent, what kind of power can resist it?
No wonder Jing Fantian was able to build such a long canal in such a short time.
After repairing the distance of the Chenxi Canal, Jing Fantian felt tired and stopped.
He returned to his true form and found a place to rest.
Charlotte walked over and took out a tissue to wipe the sweat off Jing Fantian's forehead.
Jing Fantian looked up at Charlotte. The winter weather was a bit cold and Charlotte was wearing very little. Fortunately, she was the holder of the Divine Eye of the Ice Element, otherwise she would not have been able to survive.
"Charlotte, that's all for today. Let's go back!"
Jing Fantian stood up and took Charlotte's hand.
Charlotte struggled twice, but when she couldn't get free she just let it go.
She asked Jing Fantian, "Fantian, when did you come up with the idea of building a canal?"
Jing Fantian thought for a moment, then replied, "My initial motivation was that I was broke and wanted to make some money. Then I thought of using my land power to build a canal and earn tolls."
Charlotte shook her head and said, "This isn't a good report. I think this is an opportunity to change other people's opinions of you."
Jing Fantian looked at Charlotte and smiled, "So, Charlotte, how do you think we should report this?"
Charlotte thought for a moment. "Well, I think you came up with the idea of building a canal because you saw that the cultural and economic exchanges between countries were not very close, and that there were too many monsters in the wild that were affecting trade routes."
"Okay, just write it as you think."
Jing Fantian said indifferently.
Charlotte was a little angry when she heard Jing Fantian's careless words: "I'm doing this for your own good. I'm using my professional ethics as a journalist to make fake news for you."
Jing Fantian touched Charlotte's hat and said, "Then there's no need to make fake news. Everyone knows exactly what kind of person I am. Why bother changing their opinion?"
"Imagine if your Steambird newspaper reports this, some people might see me start eating beef and think I'm easy to talk to, and become bolder."
"When I angered my whole family and they murdered me, I accused you of making fake news. Isn't that ruining your reputation, Charlotte, by saying you studied journalism?"
Charlotte was confused, but she roughly understood what Jing Fantian meant. There was no need to care about his reputation. Just report it as it should be.
"But……"
Charlotte still felt a little awkward, perhaps because she was thinking about how to restore some reputation for Jing Fantian!
After all, no matter what the starting point of establishing the Maritime Silk Road was, it has made an indelible contribution to mankind.
For thousands of years to come, Jing Fantian's name will be passed down along with these interconnected canals.
The evaluation of a person may change due to various subjective standpoints, but achievements are objective. Is he bad or not? Just look at KD's record and you will know.
Jing Fantian had another suggestion: "Charlotte, perhaps you could make the report a little more sensational, saying that I, the Brahma Dragon King, am a benevolent and righteous dragon king who cannot bear to see the suffering of the world."
"Seeing the declining livelihoods of people in various countries, I want to contribute my own strength. I hope to make everyone prosperous through these canals."
"My kindness, the Dragon King, will hang in the sky like the sun. If you want to repay me, I'll have to wait until my next life!"
Charlotte chuckled and couldn't help but pull out her hand to grab Jing Fantian's shoulder.
"You guy, really!"
Jing Fantian looked at Charlotte's smiling face and couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her pale lips.
"Charlotte's resentment, +100 constellation points."
This bastard, why does he kiss me when we have a disagreement?
……
Jing Fantian flew in the sky with Charlotte. Charlotte shyly nestled in Jing Fantian's arms, pinching his soft flesh.
Jing Fantian flew towards Wangshu Inn. In the past few days, Jing Fantian stayed overnight in Wangshu Inn and slept with Keqing.
Although they slept together, Keqing was more traditional and would not give her body to Jing Fantian unless he married her.
Jing Fantian gets angry at night, how can he solve the problem?
That is to wait until Keqing falls asleep, and then secretly fly to the Qun Yu Pavilion to find the Eightfold Divine Son.
The Eightfold Divine Son is preparing for pregnancy, and Jing Fantian must pay his dues every day, otherwise he will be treated coldly.
Sometimes I would go to Mondstadt to find Eula. After all, Eula was his wife, and I couldn't leave her alone all the time.
Having too many wives is a hassle.
Charlotte suddenly thought of something: "By the way, Brahma, Lady Funina asked me to bring you a message."
"She said, have you forgotten about the bet on the movie competition?"
"By the way, what's this movie bet about? Is it between you and Lady Funina?"
Charlotte looked at Jing Fantian with great curiosity.
"what?!"
Jing Fantian was stunned for a moment, then quickly recalled, "I really forgot. This happened when we in Liyue were filming a movie, and Funina thought our Liyue movie wouldn't be good."
"I was furious at the time, so I made a bet with Funina that our Liyue movie would be better than Fontaine's."
"Later, during the Seven Gods Banquet, the Son of God also joined us. The three of us proposed holding a film festival, bringing the best films from various countries and letting film critics judge which country's films are more popular!"
Charlotte looked at Jing Fantian with some amusement.
As soon as Jing Fantian saw her expression, he knew she was mocking him.
He immediately grabbed her and said, "Charlotte, do you also think that our Liyue movies can't compare to Fontaine's?"
Charlotte's honest words almost stopped Jing Fantian from coming to the stage: "Are there any movies in Liyue?"
Jing Fantian was a little furious. "Yes, of course not. The movie 'Goddess Splits the World' just came out. I must take you to Liyue Harbor to watch it later."
"Let me show you how formidable the heritage of a great nation with a 6,000-year-old culture is."
"How can a tiny Fontaine, established only a thousand years ago, possibly rival Liyue?"
Six thousand years of culture, but Liyue has only been established for three thousand seven hundred years, so where does the six thousand years of culture come from?
But Jing Fantian didn't care. He started counting from the day Zhongli was born. Zhongli was six thousand years old, so Liyue was a great country with a six thousand year old culture.
