I write novels in Liyue

Nothing to be afraid of.

"call."

Fang Qiu let out a soft breath, smiled faintly, and quickly devoured the cake and the Gift of the Wind God.

Then he went all the way home, lay down on the bouncy bomb, and picked up a light novel by Inazuma to read.

The book is titled "Rebirth: I Am the Dog of the Shenli Family".

When Fang Qiu first bought this book, he thought it was some strange work, but to his surprise, it turned out to be a surprisingly classic and passionate story.

The story is about the protagonist being reborn as a ninja dog of the Kamisato family, and starting to train like crazy in order to protect the honor of the Kamisato family.

Finally, he mastered the dual-wielding style.

It has a knife in its mouth and a knife curled around its tail, making it both offensive and defensive, and perfectly integrated.

The protagonist in the book also learned Blade Storm.

According to the author's description, that move is somewhat similar to the scene in the previous "Attack on Titan" where Levi cuts down the monkey.

The kind that involves spinning around and slashing people.

Hidden weapons concealed in the fur can also be launched as the dog spins, killing silently.

It can be said to be the king of dogs.

In the dog world, it has an even more prestigious reputation.

Knife Dog.

According to the book's synopsis, the protagonist will later face the ultimate martial arts of General Lei Dian, namely that unpredictable strike, which Fang Qiu is very much looking forward to.

……

Four days passed in the blink of an eye.

The sun shone brightly on the shimmering sea in Liyue Harbor.

It was early morning.

A large group of novel enthusiasts had already gathered in front of Wanwen Collection House, and the place was now bustling with noise.

"Boss lady, I'd like a copy of '5 Centimeters Per Second'."

"Boss lady, give me a copy of '5 Centimeters Per Second,' a copy of 'Your Name,' and a copy of 'My Name Is a Knocking Ghost.'"

"Boss lady, give me a copy of '5 Centimeters Per Second' and another copy of 'The Legend of the Magic Sword'."

While busy at work, the proprietress, Ji Fang, was pondering a very important matter.

Just last night, the owner of the pub downstairs proposed a collaboration to her.

That is, they opened a membership together.

By purchasing a membership card, you can enjoy special privileges on each book release day, including queuing through the members' lane. You can also get a 10% discount at the bar downstairs with this card.

Not only can it generate profits from book sales, but it can also collect membership fees every month and boost the business of the bar downstairs.

It has to be said that the landlady downstairs is indeed a business genius; she even thought of this method.

As she pondered, the novel enthusiasts at the back of the line were discussing amongst themselves.

"Fang Qiu, that old scoundrel, is releasing books way too fast! I was just planning to come and see if there were any new books, but I didn't expect there to be another new book from Fang Qiu in this issue."

"5 Centimeters Per Second? Judging from the cover, it seems to be set in the same universe as 'Your Name,' both being stories about Inatsuma. Would you buy it?"

"Buy it, why not? After all, that old scoundrel Fang Qiu has reformed. After you guys watched 'Your Name,' I rolled around on the bed so many times, twisting like a maggot."

"Ugh, don't even mention maggots, I feel like throwing up. There were some in my breakfast this morning... Ugh, never mind, let bygones be bygones. Life is already full of ups and downs. I'm going to buy Fang Qiu's new book too."

"Damn it! I originally planned to use his books to temper my mind, but I never expected that old scoundrel Fang Qiu would actually change his ways halfway through and stop writing angst. Who would have thought? Alas, the path to immortality is long and uncertain."

"Speaking of which, have you heard? There's been a rumor lately that Fang Qiu is actually the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, Young Master Xingqiu."

“Fang Qiu… Xing Qiu… Hiss, now that you mention it, it’s true. How come I didn’t think of that! I knew it was unreliable to say that Fang Qiu was a Hilichurl lurking in Liyue. It was too hasty to make a judgment based on the fact that the character Qiu in his pen name sounds the same as the character Qiu in Hilichurls.”

"First of all, let me state that I have no interest in women of the same gender. Secondly, I think Young Master Xingqiu is very handsome, with a beautiful face and a slender figure."

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

Meanwhile, at the front of the line, two people were carrying burlap sacks.

"B-Big brother, do we really have to do this? We almost got caught last time..."

The fat man among the two swallowed hard and asked somewhat timidly.

"What's there to be afraid of? We're Bao'er's subordinates. One failure is nothing. We'll definitely make back the money we lost last time!"

The skinny man snorted and said.

"But what if we run into Yan Fei again?" the fat man said with a worried expression.

"Hmph, you're so clueless. You managed to find legal expert Yan Fei among so many people. You're really something. This time, I'll go and sell her out. I'll show you what a professional is. You just keep an eye on Qian Yanjun."

The skinny man gave the fat man a disdainful look.

"Alright, big brother, you truly are Bao'er's capable assistant."

The fat man said with great joy, and a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes as he looked at the thin man.

"It's our turn, hurry up."

The skinny man said.

"okay."

The fat man nodded, handed the sack in his hand to the proprietress Ji Fang, and said, "Proprietress, give me a hundred copies of 'Your Name'."

"what?"

Ji Fang was stunned. Before she could react, the skinny man next to her slapped the fat man on the back of the head.

"You fucking didn't wake up this morning, did you? It's '5 Centimeters Per Second'!"

The skinny man cursed angrily.

"Oh, right, it's '5 Centimeters Per Second'."

The fat man quickly changed his tune.

Seeing the bewildered fat man, the skinny man couldn't help but rub his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache.

Why did Bao'er sister assign such an idiot to her care...?

Last time, when there was such a long line at the book sale, he was forced to choose the worst person, resulting in thousands of Mora going down the drain and books not even selling at half price.

After all, a book costs twenty moras, and nobody wants to buy it from him for ten moras.

Therefore, those books are still kept in his home.

He was still debating whether to show it to his fellow members of the treasure-hunting gang.

We haven't even gotten rid of that batch of "Your Name" copies yet, and this guy almost bought another hundred...

Who are these people...?

After buying the books, the fat man carried the burlap sack and followed him downstairs.

After scanning the area, the skinny man quickly selected his target.

"This guy, he's obviously not short of money."

The skinny man gave a cold laugh, took a book out of the sack, and said, "Watch closely, I'll only demonstrate once."

……

……

P.S.: I don't know why, but my wrist hurts terribly.

Chapter 174 You've struck gold!

His chosen target was a young man in black standing at the back of the line.

The young man in black was tall and imposing, and it was clear at a glance that he was no ordinary person.

What's odd is that there's a small cart next to his feet, which is clearly out of character for him.

"Hey friend, want some books? I just bought them from Wanwen Collection Shop, they're guaranteed to be authentic."

He walked up to the young man, cautiously surveyed the surroundings, and seeing that no Qianyan soldiers were approaching, the skinny man lifted his coat, revealing the book "5 Centimeters Per Second" underneath to the young man, and said furtively.

"Ok?"

Zhong Li raised an eyebrow slightly.

"How about it? Only two hundred Mora per book."

Seeing the young man's somewhat tempted expression, the skinny man couldn't help but smile slightly and said.

The young man was dressed in luxurious clothes and had an extraordinary demeanor; he was clearly someone who was not short of money.

The original price was eighty Mora, but this young man looked foolish and rich, so he gritted his teeth and asked for two hundred Mora.

If you're not ruthless, you can't stand firm.

As for the transaction price, if you first offer the highest price, the other party will definitely not accept it. Then, you can offer a compromise price of 150 Mora, and the other party will most likely accept it.

"Two hundred Mora? Paying a premium of a little over one hundred to skip the queue isn't a bad deal."

Zhong Li pondered for a moment, then looked up at the fat man in the distance and said in a low voice, "Is that your companion over there? I want all the copies of '5 Centimeters Per Second' that you have, except for the one you've tucked into your clothes."

"You...you want them all?"

The skinny man was initially surprised that Zhongli wasn't haggling, but when he heard Zhongli say he wanted to buy them all, his eyes widened in astonishment. "Aren't you going to ask how many books I have?"

"No need."

Zhongli said calmly, "Bring the book over."

"Alright, sir, I could tell you were no ordinary person. You are indeed generous. Please wait a moment, I'll bring the book over right away."

The skinny man immediately ran excitedly toward the fat man carrying a burlap sack not far away.

He had a total of one hundred copies of "5 Centimeters Per Second".
