Today is my birthday, but as you may know, entertaining guests always involves a lot of effort. So I thought, maybe this time, I'd keep it simple and invite only one or two of my best friends. I made some Qiankun Mora Meat for you to try. Let me know what you think. I know you're a great cook, so I would appreciate your insight. Moreover, I've heard today that wild Glaze Lilies are blooming outside the city. I made a trip down and was lucky enough to pick one. Just like the rumors said, this wild flower is of high quality and very fragrant, rarer than the artificially planted flowers from Yujing Terrace. Selling it to someone who knows their flowers might fetch a good price. However, Mora is precious, but good friends are much more valuable. This flower that I personally picked is for you. I hope you will enjoy its beauty and fragrance. | |

Lately, rumors about someone going on an extraordinary adventure around the world piqued my curiosity. I would like to have a chat about it with an experienced traveler like you. Don't worry. Even though we'll be meeting at the Jade Chamber, there's no need for any formalities. You don't have to bring any gifts or dress up for the occasion. Just think of it as an ordinary get-together with a friend. I have prepared a few small dishes and an assortment of drinks, but if there's anything else you need, feel free to make a request to my secretaries. It seems like the weather tonight will be excellent, and admiring Liyue's scenery at night never gets old. Come visit me, I'm sure we'll have a fruitful chat. Interesting things you've seen and heard on your adventures... I'll be waiting to hear the stories you have to tell. | |

Genius Invokation TCG has become quite fashionable in recent days, and many of my chess mates have become enamored. This has made it far more difficult than it once was to arrange a game of Liyue Millennial. But perhaps it's not surprising. The rules of chess are many and complex, and just setting up the game takes considerable effort, so planning and playing itself require substantial commitments of time and energy. Many have petitioned me to simplify the rules and embrace new updates to reinvigorate the game. But as I see it, a merchant should find the right market and customers for their goods. Should one blindly seek to simplify chess, it will simply become one ordinary game among many. I have heard that you possess some level of skill in the realm of games, and have learned much regarding how to make tradeoffs and balance the merits and drawbacks of different choices. Should you have time, would you like to stop by the Jade Chamber? Fret not, the board has already been properly set up, and you may treat it as a meeting between friends bonded by chess. | |

A few days ago, I acquired several pieces of jade at an auction. Compared to other distinguished and exquisite items auctioned that day, these uncarved pieces of jade seem rather plain. However, investment is more about the future, not the present. Given their natural clarity and potential to become anything, I believe that these jade pieces, which quietly embody people's pure and brilliant expectations, are not best suited to be carefully stored in the Jade Chamber. It is often said, "Fine items are best matched with the talented, only then can they shine together." Therefore, I hope you will accept them. As they travel with you and age gracefully, I wonder what kind of hue they will eventually display... When that time comes, I would appreciate it if you could spare another moment to share your insights with me over our ongoing game of chess. Just like today, I will prepare a feast and await your presence with sincere anticipation. | |

| "Oh? You're wishing me a happy birthday? Why, thank you... goodwill is, after all, worth its weight in Mora." | |
| You've really put some thought into choosing this gift, haven't you? I can easily tell that it holds great value... ...Although certainly not in terms of Mora... I love it. I really do. | |
| Oh? Did you carve this stone leaf? Hmm, it is very intricate. Thank you, I will accept it gladly. The dishes from Xinyue Kiosk should have arrived too, so why don't you stay a little longer? | |
| In business dealings, it is helpful to know the likes and dislikes of others in advance for subsequent negotiations. Glaze Lilies are already expensive, not to mention the time and effort it took to polish the crystal into such a shape. But what makes me happy to receive it is because this is a gift from you. | |
| The higher you stand, the closer you are to the sky. Look at all these twinkling stars... Oh? You would like to capture this moment for me? An interesting suggestion. I hear that many people in Fontaine take pictures to celebrate their birthdays nowadays. My, I didn't think you would have such a collection of different Kameras. I trust you're quite a dab hand at photography, no? *click* Let me see. The photos are pretty well taken. I'll take these, then. As for this one, keep it for me, will you? | |
| As I gaze down from such great heights, Liyue never fails to show me some new and beautiful sights. Quite the charming affair, I think. Oh? This gilt folding fan suits me perfectly, you say? My, have we parted so long that your gift of flattery has so matured? Still, this is just a trinket I use to pass the time. Does it strike your fancy? I could give to you, if so. |

| "Umm... Although this isn't a valuable treasure, it's handmade by us. We hope you'll like it!" "I have been gifted with countless rare and valuable treasures, but few people have given me such a heartfelt gift. Its value is immeasurable. I feel your sincerity, and I will keep it well." | |
| "My schedule has been very busy lately, but I have some free time today. Why don't you come and play a game of chess with me?" | |
| "This is from the new piece I've been working on. What do you think?" "Excellent. It hasn't been long since we last met, but you've surpassed yourself once again, Yun Jin." | |
| "Ningguang, happy birthday!" "We all prepared gifts for you!" "Thank you, everyone, I'll gladly accept them. You mustn't turn down my gifts to you in return, then." |
