Wangshu Inn is far away from Liyue Harbor, so the information received from the General Affairs Department is not received so promptly, and there is a certain delay.
"May I ask what your organization is?"
Phil Gaudet decided to figure this out first.
"The Liyue Workers Mutual Aid Association aims to protect the basic rights of Liyue workers!"
Chapter 41 I Have Someone Above Me
Liyue Workers Mutual Aid Association?
When Huaian and Philgodette first heard the name, they were a little confused.
They knew a lot about Liyue, but had never heard of this organization.
Qin An is not afraid that you don’t know, we can give you some popular science!
It's this effect.
From the beginning, Huainan also came over and seemed to be interested in Qin An's words.
Of course, some people may be curious about Qin An’s identity, but ordinary people would not establish any organization.
And this organizational structure sounds like that's indeed the case.
"You see, our main direction is to serve the majority of workers. There is a dock below Wangshu Inn, and the workers on the dock will all be members of the company in the future."
"Wangshu Inn is also very friendly to ordinary people. From a general sense, our directions are the same!"
Qin An is already somewhat familiar with the art of replacing concepts.
Just keep fooling around, and keep fooling around.
Use some lofty and well-intentioned ideas to blur the other party's concepts and thus conceal one's true purpose.
The management policy of Wangshu Inn was not specially formulated. If Qin An had not praised it separately, Huai'an and Philgodette would not have known that their Wangshu Inn was so high-end!
It is to serve the vast majority of working people of Liyue.
In fact, their original purpose was just to collect intelligence, and the identity of the inn was mostly a cover. After operating for a long time, it gradually evolved into what it is now.
As an intelligence inn, they need people coming and going so that they can get more information. How can they attract more customers?
Give profit!
Make it affordable for everyone and have a good impression of Wangshu Inn.
After development, Uncle Wang's Inn has become what it is today.
Qin An felt that the nature of Wangshu Inn was good and very much in line with the workers' purpose.
"So that's how it is." Filgodette's mind was quite flexible. After hearing Qin An's long speech, he thought for a while and asked back: "How is Mr. Qin's organization going now?"
Philgodette is not the kind of person who would just believe what others say, and don't forget her primary identity.
He is Ningguang's spy, responsible for collecting intelligence for Liyue.
For Philgodette, the most important thing is to serve Liyue. Qinan's organization sounds like it has great development potential, and the momentum will definitely not be low.
The couple also dealt with dock workers all year round, so it was easy for them to understand the future presented in Qin An's words.
What if he develops?
Will it have a bad influence on Liyue? Out of duty, the couple immediately thought of this question, so they became more interested in Qin An and made sure to find out his identity.
Qin An was also embarrassed after hearing Philgodette's question.
The reason is very simple. It sounds good to say that the Liyue Workers' Mutual Aid Association is just starting out. Including Zhongli and myself, it will take a total of four people.
Oh, it’s time to download the book.
No! The problem is that the image of the organization that Qin An portrayed to others is a giant! Being able to combine the Liyue workers into a collective, such an organization is indeed attractive to Wangshu Inn.
But Qin'an hasn't developed yet.
Yesterday, I went to the dock to do some propaganda, but the workers' reaction was just to listen. This was within Qin An's expectations, after all, he had not taken any actual action yet.
When he goes back to negotiate with Jabu and tries to secure legitimate interests for his workers, it will be more convincing.
The original idea was that it would attract many workers to join the organization.
Qin An didn't know that under Keqing's influence, the dock workers' minds had changed.
After he went back, he probably would never understand why the organization, which had no popularity to begin with, became so popular right after he came back!
Qin An felt that he couldn't show his weakness now. If you don't have confidence in yourself, how can you fool people... No, how can you invite people to join the organization?
Qin An then said confidently: "Our organization is still in the early stages of development, and we have already launched corresponding publicity activities. In addition, we have a very big advantage."
Qin An was not lying. Yesterday, when he was accompanying Wang Xiaomei to do the investigation, he also boasted to the workers. Isn't this a publicity activity?
And he is ready to use his trump card.
"What are Mr. Qin's advantages? If they are really valuable, we at Wangshu Inn may consider joining in." Huai'an began to speak in order to test Qin An's background.
"We have someone above us."
Qin An’s idea was very simple, he was ready to make up a pretext.
Originally, it was unplanned that the Liyue Workers' Mutual Aid Association would be exposed to Ningguang's eyes, but now it doesn't seem to be a completely bad thing.
Ningguang wanted to work for her and support the Liyue Workers Mutual Aid Association. Although Qin An didn't know what her subsequent plans were, he had also thought about the possibility that the other party would abandon her after she had done her job.
For example, let a civilian spokesperson develop the organization, and then she sends her own people to take over.
Afterwards, you will be able to control the Liyue Workers Mutual Aid Association without wasting any energy.
However, this is all a matter for the future, and Qin An is also on guard.
It’s not a completely bad thing now. For example, Qin An can now easily and properly use Ningguang’s name as a banner.
The conversation with Ningguang in the morning was real, so Qin An didn't feel guilty even if he asked for confirmation! Ningguang herself also expressed her wish for him to develop the Liyue Workers' Mutual Aid Association.
and so!
Qin An thought that he was not wrong to say this.
Is there someone above?
Huaian and Philgodette looked at each other and saw the doubts in each other's hearts.
The top... I think the only one who can be the top in Liyue is the Liyue official, right?
Could it be one of our own?
But they have been working in Liyue for so long and have never heard of such an organization.
According to what Qin An said, the organization's movements will definitely be significant. If Lady Ningguang really wants to develop it, she will let them know some information about this matter.
and many more.
The couple already had a tacit understanding and they could communicate their thoughts through eye contact.
They thought of a question at the same time.
Qin An just spoke in detail about the existence of the Liyue Workers Mutual Aid Association. Judging from the results, it will inevitably become a behemoth in the future.
If Qin An was just an ordinary person, would Lady Ningguang allow such a behemoth to appear in Liyue?
Thinking of this question, the two felt that there seemed to be some special information hidden in Qin An's words.
"Mr. Qin said that..."
After hearing the question, Qin installed it in a very professional manner. He looked around with a hesitant expression on his face and finally made up his mind and said, "I'm telling you, you must not expose yourself."
This would make the backer appear to be too high-ranking and cannot be easily shown to others.
It is also more convincing.
"We'll keep it a secret."
The couple also cooperated.
"You know Lord Tianquan of the Liyue Seven Stars, right?"
Qin An said mysteriously.
This is so knowledgable!
Huaian and Philgodette were almost nodding frantically. If it weren't for the professional qualities of the intelligence personnel, they would have been unable to hold back their expressions.
It’s very simple, because Wangshu Inn is Ningguang’s eyeliner!
It can be said that Ningguang is fully responsible.
"Mr. Qin is saying that this guild was ordered by Lady Ningguang?"
"Ah."
Qin An nodded and thought to himself that this was what the other party said, and he was not making up a rumor.
I just nodded.
Filgodette also thought it was a bit absurd. She said, "Mr. Qin, if we join, does that mean we are working for Lord Tianquanxing?"
Qin An didn't dare to make this guarantee, mainly because he had no way to get Ningguang to cooperate with his work.
She doesn't even know that I'm talking about her behind her back.
Therefore, he had to find a suitable reason, and Qin An began to make up a story on the spot: "It is not possible at the moment, because Lady Ningguang said that the definition of the Liyue Workers' Mutual Aid Association is that it belongs to the workers themselves, and it is best not to be tainted with too many official colors."
"In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, I also listened to some opinions when I discussed with Lady Ningguang this morning. In the end, we decided to develop slowly among the people and not rely on official power."
Qin An spoke more and more smoothly, and simply used what happened in the morning as a legitimate excuse.
It's no wonder that when Huai'an and Philgodette heard Qin An say this, they actually believed what his superiors said.
They work under Ningguang, so they naturally understand Ningguang's arrangements.
The development plan Qin An talked about is indeed in line with Lady Ningguang's style.
But there is still a problem that they can't figure out.
Why hadn't Qin An, a subordinate of Lord Ningguang, heard of him? Wangshu Inn was special because it belonged to an intelligence agency, so it was normal for Qin An not to know about it.
But Qin An was given such an important responsibility by Lord Ningguang, so his status should not be low, right? Why haven't I heard of it?
"When did Mr. Qin start working for Lord Tianquanxing? Judging from Mr. Qin's talents, he will surely achieve great success in the future."
