Shipgirls and Salted Fish Commander, Port Survival Guide

"Of course it's true. When did I lie to you?"

"But, but you haven't even seen the documents I processed, how can you say I handled them very well? Isn't that just lying to me?" Yingyong said this, but the ahoge on his head was swaying back and forth, clearly indicating that he was in a good mood.

"Do you even need to look at this? My bravely handled the documents, what's there to look at? There's no need, you know? I'll definitely handle it perfectly. If the highest level is perfect, then the bravely capable one is super perfect, making it immediately apparent that a defensive line exists."

"Hmph~ I guess you have some taste, servant." Yingyong left Jingsu's embrace, and Jingsu handed him a tissue. Yingyong took it and wiped his nose; he had really been crying.

"Your Excellency, I am deeply sorry, it seems there was a problem with our intelligence processing." At this moment, after seeing that Jing Su had stabilized the situation, Warspite hurriedly stepped forward, bowed deeply, and apologized sincerely.

"Hmph, it's alright. As a king, I don't take this little thing to heart. This is the last time." Hero waved his hand, reverting to his original arrogant demeanor. However, before Warspite could say anything more, Hero added, "Although I don't care, the punishment that is due still needs to be given."

"Alright then, since that short queen has neglected state affairs, there's a huge pile of documents in the room that need processing. I'll punish Warspite, you'll have to handle them for me. I think that's what that bastard wanted too."

"Huh!?" Warspite was dumbfounded. He looked around and saw that the room was piled up with all kinds of government documents, and there was almost no room to step. Was he supposed to handle all of this?

"What, you don't want to?" Yingyong glanced sideways, giving off an air of "I won't give up until you agree."

"No, uh, how should I put it, well, sigh." After stammering for a while, Warspite seemed to resign himself to his fate, lowered his head, and said dejectedly, "Okay, I accept."

For War-weary Queen Elizabeth, handling these political affairs was one of her duties. When Queen Elizabeth was tired from work and started to throw a tantrum, War-weary Queen Elizabeth had to step in herself to appease her on the verge of collapse and take over her tasks to deal with factional matters.

These past two days have been filled with dealing with the Maritime Safety Administration's misappropriation of resources, arranging receptions for Jing Su, and even accompanying Jing Su to handle rescue requests. All things considered, it's been quite a while since I've done any work, and it's time to get back to work.

'Sigh, I was thinking of going on a date with the Commander, but it looks like that's off the table now. And all these annoying things! It's only been three or four days since I stopped working, *crying*

"Hmph, at least you have some sense." Yingyong was pleased. "Well then, attendant, since the political affairs have been taken care of, it means I'm free. In that case, I need you to accompany me to meet..."

"Wait a minute, Yingyong." Before Yingyong could finish speaking, Jingsu interrupted her, "I think you've been busy for so long, you should go and rest. There's a mirror here, Yingyong, go and catch up on some sleep. Your dark circles are so bad, you don't look good."

"Ah! This, this is, this is absolutely not allowed!" Yingyong took the mirror Jing Su handed her and stared at it for a moment before screaming. In the mirror, she looked listless, with disheveled hair and dark circles under her eyes, looking every bit the dejected woman.

Even without Jing Su saying anything, Ying Yong herself couldn't accept that she looked like this, and that she would go on a date looking like this. Even if you asked Ying Yong to go, she wouldn't want to.

Yingyong declared that she was going to be the queen of the Royal Navy, and she had to maintain her dignity and exquisite appearance every time she went out, not to mention when she went out with her husband. If others saw her in such an embarrassing state, Yingyong would wish she could find a patch of ground to crawl into and never come out again.

"Servant, servant, I'm going to catch up on some sleep now. Tomorrow, tomorrow you'll wait for me in the innermost private room on the second floor of the main restaurant. Let's set the time for eight o'clock in the morning. Remember, you don't need to be late. No, that's not right. As a gentleman, my husband, you must be there an hour early to wait for me. When I arrive, I want to see you covered in flower petals. Got it?"

"what!?"

"Hmph, I'm going to rest." Without giving Jing Su a chance to speak, Ying Yong hurriedly ran out and went back to his room to rest. Jing Su's actions just now made Ying Yong realize that his current state was indeed not suitable for going out on a date.

'Hmph, as expected of my husband, my loyal servant, he is indeed very thoughtful. If I go out like this and Elizabeth sees me, who knows how she will laugh at me, and she will laugh at me in a way that I can't refute. How can I compete with her for the throne like this?'

Besides, a date is such an important event that it needs to be planned properly. If I just go out like this without any preparation, what if I waste the time and regret it for the rest of my life?

He walked faster and faster, and soon arrived at his room.

'Clang~'

As soon as he entered the room, Yingyong quickly took off his clothes, took a quick hot shower in the bathroom, then climbed into bed, took out a notebook and a pen, opened the notebook, curled up, and prepared to plan the next day's itinerary.

'Hmph, let me think about how to get through tomorrow. The meeting time is in the morning. Oh dear, I forgot to mention whether we should have breakfast together. Oh well, I'll have the servant wait for me at seven. If we have to wait that long, he'll get very hungry if he doesn't eat breakfast. I heard that the servant has a sensitive stomach and needs to eat on time. I'll just have him eat something before waiting for me.'

Sigh, having breakfast together on a date is such a romantic thing, and I actually overlooked it. How awful, I'm still so immature.

Fortunately, there are other dinner parties. I have to eat lunch and dinner together, and then have a candlelight dinner in the evening. I have to be fed by the servants and say, "Your Majesty, please eat." Hehe, this scene is so romantic. I really want to experience it.

No, no, I can't just think about eating. There are other activities too. What should I do this morning?

What activities are romantic in the morning?

Hmm, what do I usually do in the morning?

It seems I've been dealing with faction matters all morning!

Ah, so that's why I'm so tired. Elizabeth always seems to have time to run around. Oh, that's why!

Forget it, let's not think about this anymore. Let's get our plans sorted out.

Wow, this bed is so comfortable. Come to think of it, I haven't slept for three days. I'll take a nap first.

Zzzz'

Chapter 114 I'll Do Anything

office.

Jing Su and Yan Zhan looked at each other, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hmph, Commander, you really know how to comfort girls. It seems the sisters in the port are in for a lot of trouble from you. You big pervert, you big bad guy." Warspite glanced at Jing Su with a glint in his eye.

"What kind of talk is that?" Jing Su rolled her eyes at Yan Zhan. What do you mean by "bullying girls"? Am I that kind of person? From the first one until now, I've never been the one being bullied. But Jing Su seems to have figured it out now. She looked at Yan Zhan with a malicious gaze and said, "Looks like some little girl wants to be bullied by this big bad guy."

With no one around, Jing Su looked at Yan Zhan's delicate and alluring appearance and suddenly felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She walked to Yan Zhan's side, hugged her from behind, and spun her around in the air.

"what!"

War-weary was startled by Jing Su's sudden action, but she didn't say anything. She just opened her arms, imagining a wonderful scene, and her face turned slightly red.

After a short while, Jing Su put down the war-weary girl, flicked her nose, and laughed, "Hehe, how does it feel to fly?"

Jing Su originally wanted to call her "Grandma," but then she thought that Yan Zhan seemed to care a lot about her age, so she gave up. When it comes to life, you have to know when to back down. And sometimes, it's best not to be too flirtatious.

"Hmph, not very good. Not high enough, too slow, and besides, I have a feeling that you're implying something in your words, Commander." It's said that a girl's sixth sense is her secret weapon. As if sensing something, Warspite suddenly pinched Jing Su hard on the waist.

"Hiss~" Jing Su gasped, baring her teeth and glaring angrily.

"Hmph~" Seeing that Jing Su was in quite a bit of pain, Yan Zhan felt a pang of sympathy and ran to Jing Su's side to check on her, wondering if he had pinched her too hard.

"ah!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she got close to Jing Su, Jing Su grabbed her and she fell to the ground sideways, her hair falling loose.

"Commander!" Warspite's face turned bright red in an instant. She tried to exert force, but found that her hands and feet were restrained and she could not move.

"If you call me a pervert, then shouldn't I do some perverted things?"

"Ugh, ee-ah! No, not there, no, ee-uh~ no, I have no strength left!"

No, please.

Don't stop~

That place, sob, don't pinch me.

The mouth, the mouth is absolutely not allowed, ugh!

Woohoo!

babble!

Oh dear!

. . . . . .

Before long, a disheveled war-weary man, his face flushed, glared fiercely at Jing Su, but the ear-shaped hair on his head swayed back and forth, clearly indicating that he was in a good mood.

'Case solved! The Queen Elizabeth-class battleships are all tsundere. Queen Elizabeth and Valiant are overtly tsundere, while Warspite is more of a hidden tsundere, and they're incredibly perceptive. Even disregarding their age, just thinking about them is enough to anger her.'

Clutching her waist, Jing Su thought silently.

So Jing Su immediately changed the subject, "By the way, Warspite, the ship girls at the front said they need to prepare some things and asked me to go over there. What do they need to prepare?"

"This?" Warspite rested his chin on his hand and began to think. "It's hard to say. There are many things to prepare."

"?" Jing Su asked, puzzled.

The request from the ship girls at the front was only to send Jing Su to a safe supply depot, not to actually go to the battlefield. That place was considered the rear, and it was also an island.

Jing Su said, "Since it's safe, what else do I need to prepare? Isn't it enough to just have a clean place to stay?"

"Of course, we definitely need to make preparations." Warspite said seriously, "This trip was applied for by our sisters in the Royal Family, which means that accommodations and such should be the responsibility of our Royal Family."

"That's nothing, but what does it have to do with preparation?"

"There must be a connection. Our Royal Army's main bases are all located far behind the lines. The bases on the front lines are either too remote or too small. The supply depots, on the other hand, were built in cooperation between the Maritime Bureau and the White Eagle. The buildings there are all very modern."

"?"

A big question mark appeared on Jing Su's forehead.

"Commander, you are my, cough cough, the commander of our Royal Army. When you go out, you represent our Royal Army. Putting everything else aside, are those villas and mansions even houses? How can we show our nobility if we don't live in a big castle?"

The supply depot is a newly built military base. It's one thing that it doesn't have a castle, but it doesn't even have a manor. How can you, Commander, live in such a place?

Our royal family cannot afford to lose face like this.

They shouted with righteous indignation and weariness of war.

In fact, unbeknownst to Jing Su, a battle had already begun over where he would stay after arriving at the supply depot.

As Warspite stated, the supply depot was established through cooperation between the Maritime Bureau and the White Eagles. Theoretically, the White Eagles had the greatest advantage, and the island also had the most White Eagle-style buildings.

There are no skyscrapers, but there are plenty of wooden villas with small gardens.

However, since the front line is very large, resources in many war zones are allocated at supply depots. Therefore, other factions have their own offices on the island, so theoretically each faction has the opportunity to call Jing Su to their office.

Everyone wanted to see Jing Su, and also wanted to do some indescribable things to vent their longing during this period of separation.

Under what conditions is it easiest to achieve this?

Naturally, he spends every day with Jing Su.

Therefore, bringing Jing Su to their base is the easiest way to gain an opportunity.

When the ship girls at the front lines applied to send Jing Su to the front lines, they were embarrassed to find that they didn't have a proper base at the supply depot, only a large three-story flat.

The Royal Faction is rather arrogant and doesn't like to share their addresses with others. Although the supply depot is a large island, there are too many factions in the port area, and the land they can be allocated is not enough to build castles and manors. Therefore, the Royal Faction has another base on the front line.

If it were any other time, this building would be fine for temporary accommodation; after all, experiencing a modern style once in a while is a good option.

But when Jing Su was about to come to the front line, this large single-level apartment became unacceptable.

It's too small, or rather, it can only accommodate a small number of people.

Even if a three-story flat has two bedrooms per floor, it can only accommodate six people at most. There are more than six Royal Navy ship girls on the front lines!

How can this be enough to go around?

If Jing Su were sent to the Royal Base at the supply depot, there would be no need for other factions to cause trouble; the Royal faction itself would fight amongst themselves, scrambling for a single spot to stay.

That's why the frontline said they needed half a month to prepare. This half-month preparation definitely wasn't for building a house. Even if they had the technology, they didn't have the materials. Besides, even if it was built, they wouldn't dare let Jing Su move in; it would be embarrassing.

Therefore, the Royal Army members on the front lines are currently working diligently to find people to buy existing buildings. They don't need skyscrapers, just villas will do, and if they come with their own estates, that would be even better.

The ship girls from other factions naturally knew what the Royal Navy was planning, so they did everything they could to sabotage the Royal Navy's acquisition plan, which has now only resulted in the purchase of three slightly larger villas.

"Actually, I don't care that much about where I live, as long as I have a room to sleep in." Seeing Yan Zhan's worried look, Jing Su thought she cared a lot about the accommodation, so she quickly comforted her.

Chapter 115 Handling Government Affairs

"Commander, where you stay is not just your business, but also a matter of the dignity of the entire Royal Navy. Our Royal Navy is not so low as to not even let you stay in a decent place." Warspite said seriously in response to Jing Su's suggestion that he could stay anywhere.

"Oh, is it that serious?" Jing Su was a little confused. How did staying somewhere have anything to do with being respectable? But seeing how much Warspite emphasized it, Jing Su didn't delve into it. She had just done a rather strenuous aerobic exercise and was a little tired. It would be better to rest for a while.

"That's natural. A noble status needs a lot of things to complement it. Don't think of temperament as some mysterious thing. People are more judged by their clothes. Commander, doesn't the Eastern Empire also say that people are judged by their clothes?" In order to dispel Jing Su's terrible idea of ​​just finding a place to stay, Warspite began to persuade him.

"There is such a saying, but I always feel that what you are trying to express is not that."

"Hey, Commander, don't worry about that. We won't hurt you. Just follow our plan," Warspite said while straightening her clothes.

"Alright then, we'll do it your way." Seeing that Warspite insisted, Jing Su didn't say anything more. He had experienced hardship before, so he wasn't picky about where he lived, but why should he humiliate himself when he could live in a good house?

"Commander, let's deal with these documents. If you're going to the front lines, these things definitely need to be processed. Too much backlog isn't good either." After receiving Jing Su's definite answer, Warspite was overjoyed, but his expression remained unchanged, trying his best not to let Jing Su see any clues. He then used the all-purpose political affairs to divert Jing Su's attention.

“That’s true.” Jing Su nodded. The room was now piled with all kinds of documents. If documents such as rescue orders were previously set aside, now all the documents were mixed together, one in front of the other.

"With so many documents, Commander, you should handle this section first. I'll sort them out." Seeing that Jing Su's attention had been diverted, Warspite was overjoyed and immediately took on the role of an all-around secretary, starting to plan for Jing Su.

"Ah."

Following the direction Warspite pointed, Jing Su arrived at a pile of documents stacked like a small mountain. With difficulty, she pulled out a page and began to read it.

'Supply procurement plan? What types of fruits and vegetables will be purchased in the second half of the month? Do I need to apply for this too?' Looking at the contents of the first document, Jing Su fell into deep thought.

"Commander, our Royal Army regularly purchases supplies from merchants, mostly food-related items. We don't expect the Maritime Bureau to handle these for us; the food they send over is terrible."

What I hate most is that they don't allow bargaining; that's why I wouldn't choose them.

Seeing the documents Jing Su was holding, Warspite took a stack of documents and casually said something.

"Oh my, you can buy any house you want, but would you haggle over food?" Jing Su joked.

"Hey, Commander, what do you mean by that? We Royal Navy may be rich, but we absolutely do not encourage waste, okay? If we know it's a trap, we can't just jump right in, that's not something a smart and elegant lady would do." Warspite rolled her eyes at Jing Su, then continued to move the documents.
