The clouds above Liyue are floating lazily, and the wind is very light. It seems that you can hear the melody from a foreign country in the wind.
On the dock, Farmas was still drinking heavily, but Wendy suddenly raised her head, blinked her long eyelashes lightly, and looked at Farmas who was having a good time with the workers with her mint-colored eyes, and then raised her head.
, squinting and looking at the dazzling sunlight.
He cannot stay here for too long. He is the god of Mondstadt and the ruler of Mondstadt. The sky gives them extraordinary power, but also regulates the scope of their activities.
Hundreds of years ago, Wendy, as the wind of freedom, had the opportunity to travel throughout the entire continent of Teyvat. However, since she awakened this time and handed over her heart of God, Wendy has lost the most effective certificate for traveling across the continent.
.
"The Southern Cross Fleet has returned to port!"
Wendy was just thinking of finding a reason to leave when a loud roar came from the dock. Famas, who was having a drink with the dock workers, raised his head and looked at the sea.
Jiang Zhou, the administrator of the dock, used the telescope made by Xumi to see black spots emerging one by one on the sea surface.
And Famas relied on his divine power to see clearly the fleet in the sea from a very far distance, especially the approaching Death Star.
These ships were densely connected together, entering Liyue Port one after another. According to the information reported in advance, there were hundreds of Southern Cross fleets leaving the port to buy fireworks from Inazuma this time, but this way
Returning is a journey of thousands of miles, and naturally it will not be smooth sailing.
With the name of the Southern Cross Fleet here, no pirates dare to approach this road, but natural disasters and man-made disasters, man-made disasters are gone, natural disasters are unstoppable by human power.
After a storm, if it is not handled properly, the entire fleet may be destroyed. Fortunately, the fleet is not bad luck, and with so many skilled crew members, they know the situation at sea very well, even if there are
Storms can also be avoided in advance.
But even so, excluding the damage caused by sea monsters, no less than a dozen ships sank along the way due to weather alone.
Fortunately, the fleet has a large number of ships. Even if a ship sinks, people and materials can be transferred to other ships in time. Especially when taking Manyo out to sea, the Southern Cross fleet has avoided a lot of weird weather and rain.
Clouds even discovered the weak points of thunderstorms, reducing the losses caused by passing through thunderstorms.
Therefore, the fleet that originally had hundreds of ships only had about ninety ships left when it entered the waters off Liyue Port.
Even if you look over it, you can’t see the vast area at the end.
It is indeed the most powerful Southern Cross fleet in Liyue.
Looking at the fleet that came into view, the dock manager Jiang Zhou put down the telescope in his hand and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Others don't know it, but she knows it all too well. Most of what is carried on these hundreds of ships is the fireworks purchased by Inazuma and prepared for the Sea Lantern Festival, as well as the trophies captured in the sea battles.
Every time the Southern Cross fleet brings back a large amount of gold, silver, jade, jewelry and other properties, such a large amount of wealth is an astonishing amount of wealth even for today's Liyue.
Most of Liyue's tax revenue comes from Liyue merchants who travel around doing business, and another major tax payer is Beidou's Southern Cross Fleet. Especially when the Southern Cross Fleet and Ningguang's Qun Yu Pavilion are jointly operated, Dao Zima released her vision.
Hunting order, Southern Cross is the only fleet that can legally enter Daozhu for business.
This shows the importance of this fleet.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Zhou turned slightly sideways and led the elite Qianyan Army to disperse the Liyue residents who were watching the excitement near the dock, freeing up a channel for the fleet to carry goods.
Then Beidou stood on the deck and took the helm, looking at the port with some expectation, grinning, and then waved to Jiang Zhou.
The bustling crowd was like a moving tide, and the workers who had just had a drink with Famas also ran to the dock to watch the Southern Cross fleet enter the port.
Every time the Southern Cross fleet enters and leaves the port, a considerable number of workers are required to unload and repair the ships. Most carpenters and shipwrights will rely on this daily maintenance to earn enough living expenses. If you encounter the Southern Cross fleet, you will gain a lot.
, and there are additional rewards, so many dock workers like to serve the Southern Cross Fleet.
"It's so lively! Famas, why don't we go and have a look?"
There was no one in the open-air stall, and Wendy put her hand on the back of Famas's hand beside the stool.
Fingers crossed.
"Do you want to see it? Let's go."
Famas placed the earthenware bowl on the table, held Wendy's hand and squeezed into the dense crowd.
At this moment, cargo and many boxes began to be unloaded on the Death Star. The sea beasts defeated by the Southern Cross fleet were also broken down into many materials and packed in crates.
The lifted boxes were quickly loaded onto the carriages that had been prepared and sent to the warehouse in Liyue Port. Xiao Zhao from the General Affairs Department was responsible for counting and checking.
Dozens of trucks were filled in no time, but less than one-tenth of the cargo was unloaded.
In response to this situation, the General Affairs Department had long been prepared. Just as dozens of carriages transported a batch of goods, another dozen or so carriages were immediately available to replace them. Thousands of Qianyan troops were dispatched to escort the goods safely to the port warehouse.
.
When the last box was unloaded from the ship, it was already dark, but the harbor was brightly lit.
Jiang Zhou, who had been waiting at the pier and watched each box being registered, was relieved.
Although some colleagues at the dock wanted to ask Jiang Zhou to rest first and just leave this place to them, Jiang Zhou stayed here without leaving.
No one knows the value of every box here better than her. Since Master Ningguang and the General Affairs Department sent her to handle this matter, she must ensure that this wealth will not be lost when she handles it.
Chaos.
You must know that if someone wants to tamper with it, just a few boxes may be worth hundreds of thousands of molas.
Not only Jiang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, but Xiao Zhao, who had been accompanying Jiang Zhou to count the goods, and Lin Ling, who was checking the list, also calmed down their worries.
The emperor has just been assassinated, and the assassin has not been caught. It is not yet known whether the Sea Lantern Festival can be held as scheduled, but if something goes wrong with these customized fireworks, the General Affairs Department will be really embarrassed.
As night falls, Liyue Port is very lively when the lanterns are first lit. The streets are brightly lit, and the bustling crowds are crowded in the port, walking back and forth. The bright full moon is like a bright mirror, slowly casting a soft light, covering Liyue Port with a bright light.
Layers of silver light.
"It's a completely different scene from Mondstadt..."
Wendy clasped Famas's hand behind her back, holding it tightly, and her tone became inexplicably sad.
