Alright, let's get this 'Lantern Rite, Big Business?' quest done! It's pretty straightforward, but you'll need to have finished 'Currents Deep Beneath the Lanterns' and 'Lantern Rite Tales 1' first. If you have those done, you're golden!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First up, you need to find Mr. Zhu. He's hanging out north of Liyue Harbor. Head to the Statue of the Seven there, then just walk a little northwest. You can't miss him.
  2. 2
    Chat with Mr. Zhu. He'll ask you to give some Xiao Lantern Materials to Dummy. Just hand 'em over.
  3. 3
    After that, you'll need to fast-forward time. Anywhere between 12:00 PM and 6:00 PM (12.00-18.00) will work. Speak to Mr. Zhu again once the time is right.
  4. 4
    Next, you'll need to deliver invitations. Head to the blue markers that pop up nearby and give one to Zhenxiang and another to Uncle Liu.
  5. 5
    Now, Mr. Zhu wants some Delicious Jewelry Soup. Don't worry, it's not as complicated as it sounds! You'll need:
    • 2 Snapdragon (you can buy these from Chloris along the path east of Mondstadt)
  6. 6
    2 Tofu (grab these from the Second Life General Goods store)
  7. 7
    1 Lotus Head (Bubu Pharmacy has these)

    Once you've cooked up the soup, find a spot to sit and eat it with everyone.
  9. 9
    After the meal, talk to Jianqiu.

    Your final task is to escort Jianqiu and another person to a high point southeast of the Statue of the Seven. Once you're there, watch Jianqiu release the Xiao Lantern.
  11. 11
    Finally, head back to Mr. Zhu to wrap up the quest.

  • If you're having trouble finding the ingredients for Delicious Jewelry Soup, the locations mentioned are your best bet.
