Chapter 94 Negotiation

"Correcting incorrect history records?" Coral Palace Heart Sea was somewhat confused.

"You have embellished and glorified the war of aggression back then as a war for survival. Isn't that a mistake?" Ueno Chiki questioned sharply.

Coral Palace Heart Sea was speechless for a moment.

Because the war launched by Orobas was, no matter how much it was covered up, a war of aggression with a long history of crimes.

"It's time to wake you up, people of Haizhi Island. Stop letting your blind and ridiculous hatred continue." Ueno Chiki's words were sharp.

“But Lord Umi no Okami died for us, how can we tarnish his name?” Sango no Mikoto’s tone was equally firm.

Upon hearing this, Ueno Chiki gently shook his finger. "I have no intention of defaming the name of the Umi-no-O-Gosho. Rather, I want to point out the culprits of the war and the instigators, the Miko-no-Sisters, who were blinded by self-interest and instigated and deceived the Umi-no-O-Gosho!"

Coral Palace Heart Sea still shook her head. According to the records, it was not the Mengyun sisters who urged the Umi-no-O-Sho to launch the war.

"Coral Palace Heart Sea, there are some things I don't want to say too clearly. Who exactly urged the Sea Lord to launch the war, and who hid the divination results before the war and watched Him go to his death?"

The gods love people, but you don't seem to love the gods much; instead, you become incredibly devout after the gods have left.

Every word Ueno Chiki spoke was like countless shards of broken glass, sharp and cold, piercing fiercely into the heart of Coral Palace Kokoro.

Her body trembled; she could barely bear the pain.

She knew the answer, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

“Ueno Chiki, I understand what you mean.” She sighed softly, “It is our Coral Palace that has wronged the Mengyun sisters.”

"Since you agree to our conditions, in exchange, our Inazuma Shogunate will fully assist your Kaiji Island in solving its food and clothing problems. I personally promise you that within three years, no one on Kaiji Island will starve to death," Ueno Chiki said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Coral Palace Xin Hai was shocked as if by a tidal wave.

For centuries, Haizhi Island has been plagued by hunger, a heavy shackle that has suffocated them.

Despite their numerous brilliant ideas and ingenuity, countless talented individuals from the island could not find an effective solution to this problem.

And the man in front of them, Chiki Ueno, actually claimed that he could solve this problem in just three years.

Her eyes were filled with surprise and doubt. She looked at Ueno Chiki, trying to find some flaw in his expression, some trace that could prove he was lying.

However, all she saw on his face was confidence and determination. His gaze was like a hard stone, crashing into her heart and making it impossible for her to remain calm.

"If you can truly solve the hunger problem on our island of Haizhi, we are willing to accept your terms. However, you must first tell me your plans."

In his previous life, Ueno Chiki was just a struggling author, not a person of great knowledge, but fortunately he was born in a great country where people lived a prosperous life through their own efforts and wisdom.

"First, I will plan and adjust the industries on Haizhi Island, significantly reduce agriculture with high input and low output, and vigorously develop its own advantageous industries, such as aquaculture, pearls, tourism and so on."

Simultaneously, resource integration is carried out to achieve high-efficiency output, including the rational allocation of resources across various industries, optimization of production processes, and improvement of product quality and added value.

........

With the implementation of these measures, Haizhi Island's industries will develop better, achieving efficient economic growth.

This will also bring more job opportunities and income sources to the residents of Haizhi Island, improving their living standards.

The people present reacted differently to Ueno Chiki's lengthy speech.

Kujo Sara felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier; she really wanted to find a place to get a good night's sleep.

Mochizuki, on the other hand, looked completely bewildered, not understanding what Ueno Chiki was talking about.

Coral Palace Shinkai looked thoughtful, seemingly having grasped the meaning of Ueno Chiki's suggestion.

Seeing Sango Kokoro's reaction, Ueno Chiki was a little worried. He was concerned that Sango Kokoro might not have understood something, so he cautiously asked, "Is there anything you don't understand about my suggestion?"

She pondered for a moment, then looked up at Chiki Ueno. "I understand your suggestion, Chiki Ueno. I think your idea is good, but I'd like to understand more about how these measures should be implemented in detail."

Upon hearing Coral Palace's question, Ueno Chiki breathed a sigh of relief. "I will write a detailed plan on how to implement it. But before that, the island of Umijima must sign a peace treaty."

Coral Palace Heart Sea did not agree, but said, "This matter is of great importance, and I need to think about it."

Ueno Chiki sighed inwardly. Success was not as easy as he had hoped, but he was not discouraged. He knew that if he gave Coral Princess Kokoro some more time, she would definitely agree to sign the treaty.

He trusted his own judgment, and also trusted the wisdom and decisiveness of Coral Palace Heart Sea.

“I understand your considerations, Coral Palace Heart Sea,” Ueno Chiki said with a smile.

Then, the two got up together and left the peace talks.

Coral Palace Xin Hai had only taken a few steps when she saw an extremely familiar figure. The person was even more beautiful and charming than she remembered, and she walked quickly toward her.

At this moment, Coral Palace Heart Sea was filled with excitement and joy, waiting for that person's kiss and hug.

But as the man approached, she saw that there was another girl behind him.

That girl was not only pure and cute, but she also had white stockings on her face, which was completely unfair!

Chapter 95 Therefore, love can disappear.

Coral Palace Heart Sea looked at Yingmei with a resentful expression, her eyes filled with unspeakable sorrow, "Traveler, didn't you promise me that you would come back to see me?"

Yingmei scratched her head a little embarrassedly, she had really forgotten about it. "Ah, Xinhai, oh, I've been so busy lately."

Paimon, standing beside her, glanced at her disdainfully. What was she busy with? She was lazy and good-for-nothing all day long. Lately, she was obsessed with Columbia and didn't even care about finding Thor's eye.

"By the way, this is Ueno Chiki's cousin, Columbia," she introduced to Sango Mikoto.

Coral Palace Heart Sea turned to look. Columbia's skin was as white as jade, her eyes were deep black like stars twinkling in the night sky, and her long hair was as smooth as silk, naturally curly around her shoulders, giving her a unique elegance.

Coral Palace Heart Sea could sense an unusual aura emanating from this girl; her temperament was extraordinary and otherworldly, as if she did not belong to this world.

"Hello, I am Coral Palace Heart Sea," Coral Palace Heart Sea said in a very friendly manner.

However, Columbia did not react at all. She just stared blankly at the bow on Coral Palace Heart Sea's chest, then sighed and muttered to herself, "It's too small. I probably can't hide in it."

Coral Palace Heart Sea suddenly felt unwell.

“That’s not what she meant,” Yingmei quickly explained, then shook Columbia, who was still in a daze, vigorously.

Shaked by Yingmei, Columbia finally returned to normal on the derailed track. She remembered what she had just said and thought about it seriously.

Then, looking at Coral Palace Heart Sea's chest, she said again, "That's what I meant, it's too small, I can't hide in it."

Coral Palace Heart Sea could no longer hold back and ran off into the distance.

Seeing that something was wrong, Yingmei immediately chased after them.

Columbia was very confused as she watched the two figures walk away.

Just then, she saw Ueno Chiki approaching, so she went up to her and asked, "Code name Ueno Chiki, I just said that the bow on Coral Miyako's chest was too small and I couldn't hide it, so why did she run away excitedly?"

At first, Chiki Ueno didn't quite understand what she was saying, but when he thought about Columbia's outrageous behavior before, he immediately understood the reason.

"Don't comment on other people's size in front of them in the future, it will hurt their feelings."

"Is that so?" Columbia asked, bewildered.

Chiki Ueno nodded firmly. Actually, whether you're male or female, you'd care a lot about this issue.

......

Yingmei caught up with the depressed Coral Palace Heart Sea on a beach.

A gentle sea breeze blew, lifting Coral Palace Heart Sea's pale pink hair, which danced lightly as if telling her story.

"Xinhai, please don't mind her. Columbia is just like that; she doesn't understand social etiquette. She really didn't mean it that way," Yingmei said apologetically.

Coral Palace Heart Sea gently shook her head. "Traveler, actually I don't care about this matter anymore. What I care about more is you. The way you look at me is completely different from before."

"How could that be? I will always love you."

As she spoke, Yingmei took out a pair of white stockings from her spatial backpack and held them up. "Look, these are the original white stockings you gave me, and I've kept them all this time."

She picked up the white silk stockings again, took a deep breath, as if to prove her feelings for Coral Palace Heart Sea.

However, the more she did this, the more disappointed Coral Palace Heart Sea became.

"Traveler, you already have someone in your heart, someone completely different from the liking you have for me; that is true love."

Upon hearing this, Yingmei froze instantly. Her heart suddenly raced, and a face immediately flashed into her mind.

The man's face was clearly visible, and his eyes were filled with deep affection and love for her.

"Uh, Xinhai, I, I, I..." Yingmei wanted to explain, but she couldn't get the words out.

Seeing Yingmei's reaction, Coral Palace Heartsea already understood most of the situation. She sighed softly and said, "That person is Ueno Chiki, isn't it?"

Coral Palace Heart Sea's words made Yingmei's heart race and her face flush. She lowered her head, not daring to look into Coral Palace Heart Sea's eyes.

Coral Palace Heart Sea smiled bitterly. She knew that this matter could not be changed and she could only accept reality. "Can you tell me about Ueno Chiki?"

"Him? There's nothing much to say about him. He's just an ordinary struggling writer. He used to be a sycophant and a really stupid guy. Even though he was broke himself, he still wanted to help others. When he first met me, he even asked me for money. Didn't he know I was notoriously poor?"

When talking about Chiki Ueno, Yingmei became radiant.

Coral Palace Xin Hai felt even more bitter. She knew that the more Ying Mei belittled him, the deeper her feelings for him were!

Yingmei continued, "Of course, he also has some good points. He has a gentle and kind personality, keeps his promises, can cook, and can write novels. By the way, I have a manuscript of a book he just finished recently. Would you like to take a look?"

“Okay,” Coral Palace Heart Sea nodded in response.

Yingmei took out the manuscript of "Brokeback Mountain: I, who was kept by a rich man, actually fell in love with this man" from her backpack.

When Coral Palace Xin Hai received the manuscript, she felt as if a door to a new world was slowly opening for her.

Chapter 96 Inazuma's Light Novel in Liyue

As the New Year approaches, Liyue Harbor, this beautiful and ancient city, becomes exceptionally bustling.

The streets were bustling with traffic, and crowds of people moved about in every corner.

The busiest and most bustling place was Wanwenji Bookstore. From upstairs to downstairs, crowds thronged, and the line of people queuing to buy books stretched like a long, winding dragon across the entire floor.

People waited patiently, hoping to buy the latest best-selling light novel, "Night Shift Ward,...".

Last time, many people missed out on buying "Husband's Softness,...", and this time they don't want to miss out on "Night Shift Ward,...".

Among the people queuing, one boy stood out. He had delicate features and a gentle demeanor. He held a folding fan and was very polite.

"Young Master Xingqiu, why are you also queuing up to buy this novel?" Ji Fang, the owner of Wanwen Collection Shop, looked on in astonishment.

Xingqiu was somewhat confused. "Is there a problem?"
