❝ i very much can. ❞ 
for a worker in a business reliant on customers, mu qing is unremarkable. he refuses to walk the streets of liyue to draw in patrons; at the day’s end, when people mourn the loss of time & stare at the moving sun in a hope to turn its path back eastward, they’ll come of their own accord.
mu qing expects the same of a funeral business. yes, death is an inevitable endpoint, that pitch he agrees with. but who needs a coffin in their home when it’s barely time!? & everyone needs a coffin eventually, so it’s not like the wansheng funeral parlor is lacking money??
everyone knows hu tao. even mu qing experiences the advertisements, he hears it from miles away. 
❝ why are you at the inn, anyway? people are resting, they’re not ready to hear about your innovations in the coffin-building field. ❞ he crosses his arms. ❝ & where would you even bring me? there’s no way i’m trusting you, a funeral parlor director, to bring me anywhere remotely better than my room. with a nice cup of tea. i’ll get cursed at this hour. ❞
