I write novels in Liyue

You can buy more.

After all, with her current abilities, keeping drinks frozen for a day or two is no problem.

The same applies to cakes.

Leaving it for a day or two is not a problem.

……

At this moment, night had fallen and the city lights were just coming on.

The bright lights of Liyue Harbor are reflected in the water, making it look exceptionally prosperous.

Walking on the bluestone path, with a gentle sea breeze blowing by, Fang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.

A pleasant feeling.

Just as she walked easily onto the terrace of the pastry shop, accompanied by the crisp sound of the waves, the figure of a girl in purple came into view.

The girl in purple was very pretty, with her hair styled in cat-like pigtails.

She was sitting in a seat by the sea, with a heavy folder on the table. She was looking at the folder, her brows furrowed in thought, her once bright and spirited eyes now showing signs of weariness.

They've obviously been working for a long time.

Seemingly a little agitated from thinking, she sighed deeply, put down the folder, picked up a glass of orange juice and took a sip. Just as she was about to pick up the folder again to continue reading, she seemed to sense Fang Qiu's gaze and subconsciously glanced in her direction.

Then, they looked at each other.

"Miss Fang Qiu, what a coincidence."

The girl in purple was slightly taken aback, then put down the folder in her hand, stood up and said.

"Miss Keqing, it's been a long time."

Fang Qiu smiled faintly and said, "I never expected to meet you here."

Although he didn't have much interaction with Keqing.

But in her memory, there were many rumors about this Jade Balance Star. It was said that she was always diligent and hardworking, and would not put off until tomorrow what she could do today.

how to say.

The complete opposite of her.

If she weren't pushed to the limit, she wouldn't even be able to finish her tasks for the day, let alone tomorrow.

I've been working so hard on writing this book lately, there's just no other way.

Although I knew Keqing was very hardworking, I didn't expect her to be this hardworking. She even carried a folder with her when she went out for a snack.

He reviewed documents while sipping his drink.

That's way too hard...

“I’ve been a bit tired lately. I heard from Moonsea’s secretary that a new confectionery shop has opened in Liyue Harbor in Mondstadt. It’s a great place to relax, so I thought I’d give it a try.”

Ke Qing said.

"I see. Miss Keqing is really working hard."

Fang Qiu said.

"As members of the Liyue Seven Stars, it is only natural that we should make this effort to bring benefits to the people of Liyue Harbor."

Ke Qing let out a soft breath, then smiled and said, "Since we've met by chance, why don't we sit down and chat?"

"Okay, Miss Keqing, please wait a moment while I go and place my order."

Fang Qiu smiled and said.

Although she had originally only planned to buy the cake and drinks and pack them up to go home, she couldn't refuse Keqing's invitation.

"Ah."

Ke Qing nodded.

Soon, Fang Qiu finished ordering the snacks and drinks.

A coconut milk cake and a glass of chilled lemon juice.

When she returned to Keqing's table after placing her order, she found Keqing looking at a folder with a worried expression. Inside the folder were not only a map, but also several photos that had been pasted on.

The photo shows a towering mountain.

"Miss Keqing, why are you looking at these photos?"

Fang Qiu asked instinctively, but realized her mistake immediately and quickly said, "Miss Ke Qing, I didn't mean to peek."

"It's alright, it's not a secret."

Keqing shook her head and then explained, "This mountain is here, and this road is the official road between Liyue and Mondstadt."

Following Keqing's finger, looking at the map, a mountain range stretched across the map. The official road wound around the entire mountain range, and then, because there were several important towns on the other side of the mountain range, the official road circled back to the other side of the mountain range.

In other words, we went through almost a huge detour for nothing.

"I see. So, this mountain is blocking the official road?"

Fang Qiu said thoughtfully.

"Yes, this mountain is not only extremely long and winding, but also teeming with monsters along the way. So, I originally planned to build a winding mountain road to the top. However, after conducting an on-site investigation, I discovered that the mountain range is extremely steep and treacherous, stretching endlessly."

"I see."

"Sigh, it seems this plan has to be abandoned."

Keqing sighed and said.

However, she was just saying it to vent her frustrations; she didn't have any hope for Qiu.

After all, Fang Qiu isn't an emperor who knows everything and can do everything.

Alas, since the passing of the Emperor, the Seven Stars of Liyue have been in charge, and she has encountered difficulties like this many times.

Although the problems were eventually resolved, she was always extremely worried and overwhelmed each time.

There are times when we overcome difficulties, and times when we settle for second best.

Fang Qiu looked carefully at the mountains in the photo, thought for a moment, and said:

"I do have a solution."

Chapter Ninety-Two: So Comfortable

"Huh?"

Upon hearing Fang Qiu's words, Ke Qing was taken aback.

Although she didn't have much contact with Fang Qiu, whether from her interactions with Fang Qiu or from what people around her said, Fang Qiu was a gentle and intellectual woman who never made any boastful remarks.

Fang Qiu said he had a solution, and maybe he really did!

Could it be that Fang Qiu did some research in this area while writing the book?

Thinking of this, Ke Qing couldn't help but ask, "Miss Fang Qiu, please speak."

"Since we don't want to take a long detour and can't climb the mountain, why not just dig a hole at the foot of the mountain to connect the two sides?"

Fang Qiu said.

"Drill...drill a hole?"

Ke Qing was stunned.

“That’s right. Since the mountain is mostly made of rock, we can just find the narrowest and most solid part of the mountain and make a tunnel through it, just like a mine.”

Seeing that Ke Qing was still somewhat doubtful, Fang Qiu carefully explained to her all the methods she knew for opening the tunnel.

For example, the shape, location, and structure of tunnels—these are basic principles of modern architecture.

"Although it sounds a bit far-fetched, upon closer inspection, it seems that with some improvements, it could be done."

Ke Qing pondered for a while, and the more she thought, the brighter her eyes became, and the fatigue in them disappeared.

"I understand now. Thank you, Miss Fang Qiu. I'll go back to Yujingtai to write the plan. If it works out, I will definitely repay you properly and apply for a bonus for you."

Ke Qing tidied up the documents, stood up, and said.

"Then I'll await Miss Keqing's good news. However, please take care to rest amidst your busy schedule."

Fang Qiu smiled and said.

With Mora as a bonus, she wouldn't be sleepy anymore.

It seems that knowledge from a previous life is still somewhat useful.

If Mora has enough, then when Keqing encounters other architectural difficulties, I'll step in and offer some advice.

For example, a cable-stayed bridge spanning a thousand meters across the river, or... um... that seems to be it...

When the book is in use, I hate less!

After Ke Qing left in a hurry, Fang Qiu sighed and leaned against the table to eat cake by herself.

After finishing the cake, Fang Qiu ordered several more cakes and juices of different flavors.

While packing, Fang Qiu discovered the advantage of the Ice-type God's Eye.

Creation.

Since there is no technology for disposable plastic cups, it's impossible to pack them unless you bring your own cup.

Fang Qiu, on the other hand, used her Ice-type Divine Eye to condense several ice cups, allowing the staff to simply pour the juice into them.

No need to add ice.

So Fang Qiu carried the cake and juice all the way home.

"So comfortable."

Fang Qiu placed the juice and cake on the table, then slumped onto the bouncy bomb, sinking into it and being enveloped in soft, warm fabric.

Come to think of it, she had just forgotten to recommend the bouncy bomb to Keqing.

Next time, definitely next time.
