I write novels in Liyue
Page 86
The soldiers who followed the orders of the Heavenly Ruler, armed with weapons, stood guard around the perimeter.
A short-haired woman wearing a celestial dog mask and a form-fitting black outfit, exuding a heroic air, was personally inspecting the goods, holding a thick, book-like register.
"Passed, next box."
The short-haired woman inspected the goods in the box, then nodded and said.
Upon hearing that the order was acceptable, the people carrying the goods then lifted the wooden crate with all their might.
However, as soon as it was lifted, the wooden box broke open with a "crack" due to the excessive weight.
The wooden crate slammed down hard on the porter's leg.
The porter's face changed, and seeing that it was too late to dodge, the short-haired girl frowned slightly, about to make a move, when a hand reached out from the side and grabbed the wooden box.
"Young man, be careful. It doesn't matter if the goods fall, just don't hurt yourself."
A cheerful voice rang out.
The short-haired girl looked up and saw a woman dressed in a black and red outfit and wearing a pirate eye patch gently grabbing the other corner of the wooden box with one hand.
The wooden crate that required two hands to move was lifted by her with just one hand, effortlessly.
Most women, let alone one hand, might not be able to move this wooden box even with two hands.
"That's amazing."
The porter swallowed hard, muttered something, and then remembered to thank him.
"Let's keep moving."
The woman wearing the eye patch waved her hand and said.
"Thank you for your help, Captain Beidou."
The short-haired girl looked at the woman in front of her and thanked her.
"Need not."
Hokuto smiled, his eyes narrowing slightly, and said, "Speaking of which, it is truly an honor for my Southern Cross fleet that the dignified Tenryo magistrate commander, Kujo Sara, has personally come to help count the cargo."
"After all, this trade with Liyue is of utmost importance and cannot afford the slightest mistake."
Kujo Sara said calmly.
"That's true."
Hokuto smiled and said, "But Miss Kujo, you've worked so hard, would you like to come aboard the ship for a drink?"
"No need. I need to go back and report after I finish checking the goods."
Kujo Sara refused.
"Then I'll be going now. The ship is waiting for me to host a banquet."
Hokuto was not surprised at all by Kujo Sara's refusal. After taking a few steps, he turned back to look at Kujo Sara, a smile playing on his lips.
"Since you don't want to drink with me, I'll give you a small gift instead."
Hokuto smiled, took out two books from his person, handed them to Kujo Sara, and said.
"Book?"
Kujo Sara was slightly taken aback.
When she first saw Beidou taking something out, she couldn't help but be wary.
After all, although she had not directly clashed with Beidou on the battlefield, Beidou's terrifying strength had been clearly demonstrated on the battlefield.
It is a formidable opponent that should not be underestimated.
Although I have heard that Beidou is an upright person who disdains sneak attacks, as the leader of the Heavenly Command, who has been fighting for many years, how can I believe others based on such rumors?
Moreover, in this situation, being vigilant has become an unconscious behavior.
However, when she saw that Hokuto had taken out two books, Kujo Sara was stunned.
"This is a book I brought from Liyue, which was then revised by your Inatsume Yaedo. It was written by a friend of mine, and I really enjoy reading it. When I passed by Yaedo, I bought a few copies to take back to my friend. I'm also giving you two copies as a gift. You can read them when you have some free time; you might like them."
Beidou said.
After saying that, without waiting for Kujo Sara to speak, he shoved it directly into her hands.
See you next time.
After saying that, Beidou waved his hand and said...
Kujo Sara frowned, about to casually put the two books aside, when she suddenly noticed that the titles looked familiar.
"Hmm? Aren't these the books that the young lady from the Kamisato family bought from Yaedo a while ago?"
Kujo Sara frowned slightly and muttered to herself.
Although she wasn't familiar with the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family, Kujo Sara knew quite a bit about her.
I had long heard of the exceptional chess skills of the young lady from the Kamisato family and had wanted to pay her a visit for a long time.
However, every time she passed by the Kamisato house, she would hear sounds of fighting, dancing, and laughter coming from inside. She worried that someone as serious as her would be out of place in that kind of atmosphere.
Therefore, I always give up whenever such a thought arises.
She heard about Ms. Kamisato buying those two books from her subordinates.
It is said that a few days ago, the Kamisato family and Narukami Taisha jointly announced that they would be holding a large-scale music competition.
After the announcement, preparations began immediately.
It was quite a grand affair.
This music competition was organized specifically because of the book "Your Lie in April"...
It was precisely because of the announcement of this concert that a long line formed in front of Yaedo Bookstore for a whole day, forcing the Tenryo Magistrate to send troops to maintain order.
"Fang Qiu? Is that a pen name or his real name? Is this person really that good at writing?"
Kujo Sara frowned as she glanced at the author's name on the book cover.
The eldest daughter of the Kamisato family and Lord Yaeji both stepped in to promote her book, and now even Captain Hokuto has sent her two copies.
"Well, I'll take a look when I have time. Maybe if I meet that young lady from the Kamisato family in the future, I can use this as a topic to chat with her. After all, harmony among the three commissioners is helpful for the general's management and also helps me to carry out my work."
Kujo Sara pondered for a moment, then put the book away.
"next."
Kujo Sara waved and said.
"Yes, Lord Kujo Sora."
……
The Death Star was bustling with activity at that moment.
Several cooks were setting up barbecue grills on the deck to grill fish.
"You know what, Sister Xiangling's cooking is really good. It smells so good, my mouth is watering."
"I wonder if Xiangling has made any new dishes during the time she's been away. She's eager to return to Liyue."
"However, compared to Sister Xiangling's dishes, I'd rather see Miss Fangqiu's new book. You know, by the time we get back, Miss Fangqiu should already have a new work, right?"
"Given Miss Fang Qiu's writing speed, it should be finished by now. I'm really looking forward to it."
"Weren't the first two books heart-wrenching enough? I remember after you finished reading them, you drank a lot of alcohol, and I had to carry you to bed. You kept calling me Juan'er. Luckily, I dodged quickly, or you would definitely have kissed me."
"Ahem, well, it just brought back some memories. I met a girl on a ship back then."
"Shut up, you've told this story so many times, that girl doesn't like you at all."
"Don't you think it's even sadder that she doesn't like me?"
What you said... seems to make some sense.
The sailors were buzzing with discussion.
……
……
P.S.: I'm here! Sorry I'm late, I had writer's block.
Chapter 89 The traveler mentioned
"The wind is a bit noisy tonight."
Kaedehara Manyo sat on the mast, the sea breeze ruffling the hem of his maple-red robe.
Under the mast, the sailors ate grilled fish, sang songs, and drank wine.
Xin Yan stood at the bow of the ship, his fingers dancing across the guitar strings, producing exciting notes that drew cheers and drinks from the sailors.
"Manyo, stop standing up there in the wind, come down and have a drink."
Beidou sat in a recliner, took a sip of wine, and shouted.
"coming."
Maple Leaf leaped off the mast, and the moment he landed, wind elemental energy gathered beneath his feet, allowing him to land steadily on the deck.
"Young Master Wanye, you have impressive skills!"
"Tsk, no matter how many times I watch it, I still think that move is so cool."
"I want the Eye of God too! Why won't Lord Rock give me one?"
"You want the Eye of God just to show off? Do you think the Emperor will even bother with you?"
"If I give you a Geo-type Eye of the Gods, you'll break your leg the moment you jump down."
"Are you stupid? If I had a Geo-type Aspect of the Gods, I would build myself a rock ladder to walk down."
"If you build such a tall stone staircase just to show off and walk down it, Big Sister Beidou will definitely hang you from the ship's side and fish you out."
"Ahem, that seems to be true."
The crowd was discussing it.
