Azur Lane, I really didn’t lose my memory!

However, the next moment, a big hand grabbed her waist. The girl was stunned for a moment and was pulled over before she could react.

Then Lu Xiuyuan kissed her.

Feeling the touch and temperature of his lips, the girl's purple-gray pupils suddenly dilated and a slight whimper sounded. Noshiro reached out and gently patted Lu Xiuyuan, trying to push him away.

However, the commander's kiss was like magic, making people unable to stop, and the girl's whole body softened.

Shimakaze stayed where he was, his mouth slightly open.

Jiu Nio secretly took out his mobile phone to take pictures and record this historic moment.

The spectators around were also stunned by the commander's proactive attack, and many of them were ready to take action.

After a long time, the two separated.

Noshiro slumped over like a pile of mud, leaning against the back of a chair. She was breathing heavily, her fair face flushed, and her chest, which was still trying to grow, rose and fell with her breathing.

Lu Xiuyuan stuck out his tongue to lick the orange juice that remained on the corner of his mouth, looked at the shy Noshiro and said, "Thank you for the hospitality. And... there is a rule in the port area that maids cannot force the commander to kiss them. It's not okay to be a subordinate who is superior to you."

After finishing the meal, Lu Xiuyuan took Dido and left the cafe.

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.

Lu Xiuyuan first took Dido to the jewelry store on the first floor to choose rings for her and Agano.

Dido told me that the jewelry store is run by Akashi. She is not only the owner of the jewelry store, but also the largest merchant in Global Harbor. She is a big businessman who runs several stores. Her business scope includes but is not limited to jewelry stores, clothing stores, electronic products, etc.

However, Lu Xiuyuan did not see Mingshi in the jewelry store. In the huge jewelry store, there was only one barbarian working diligently.

Then the two of them went to the computer city on the second floor, and Lu Xiuyuan bought himself a gaming laptop.

According to the procedure, the two took their selected goods to the counter to register.

The shops in the port area are not for profit, and people pick up goods on demand. Although there is no need to check out, registration is still required.

On the one hand, registration is to facilitate reconciliation at the office and record the expenditure flow of the port area.

On the other hand, it is also to prevent children from taking things that they should not take at their age, such as cigarettes, alcoholic beverages, and some adult supplies.

After getting a brand new gaming laptop at the computer mall, Lu Xiuyuan stood at the counter and looked around. He did not see Manju, who was in charge of the cashier, nor did he see the KanColle.

Just as Lu Xiuyuan was about to call for help, Dido pointed to a corner of the counter.

Half of the green hair was exposed.

Lu Xiuyuan walked over and saw that the petite ship girl with cat ears was sleeping on the counter, with drool flowing from the corners of her mouth.

The clutter on the counter and the surrounding cardboard boxes obscured her body, and if you didn't look carefully, you could easily overlook it.

It is worth mentioning that even when she falls asleep, the cat-eared ship girl always has many maintenance tools such as wrenches in her hands.

Lu Xiuyuan recognized her identity.

He stretched out his finger and gently poked Mingshi's face. His finger sank into it like a sponge and it felt good. "Boss Ming, wake up."

"Meow meow~"

Mingshi murmured meaninglessly in her sleep. She slapped away Lu Xiuyuan's hand that was poking her cheek, curled up her body, and hid the thing on the counter even tighter.

Only then did Lu Xiuyuan notice that there seemed to be something under Mingshi.

He leaned over to take a look, and through a tiny gap, he discovered that what Akashi was holding under his body was a small pile of red gems.

This... looks like the Red Pointy in the game, right?

Lu Xiuyuan confirmed it once more, confirming that he was not mistaken. Back then, as a krypton gold sow, he had spent a lot of money on Hong Jianjian...

Well, compared to Brother Fu, I didn’t spend that much.

Except for the period when I just graduated and had a job and had money, when I spent a few 648 yuan in revenge, afterwards I basically only spent money on monthly and monthly cards and the annual first charge reset.

He reached out curiously and pulled out a red tip from Akashi's arms.

The red gem emits an attractive luster under the main light in the room, which is quite beautiful.

However, before he could take a closer look, a cat's hand snatched the red tip from his hand like lightning.

"This is my red pointed cat!"

Without thinking, Mingshi instinctively snatched the red tip from Lu Xiuyuan's hand with one claw. When he found out that the person coming was the commander, he realized belatedly and said in surprise: "It's the commander, meow!?"

"Soudayo~" Lu Xiuyuan pointed at the red tip that Mingshi held in his arms like a treasure, "And this shouldn't be your red tip, right? These are my red tips, and you tricked them from me with obscene clothes!"

Lu Xiuyuan was sure that this was the case.

Because he just saw an Akashi clothing store next door, and the clothes inside were very different in style from those in other clothing stores.

Simply put, other clothing stores sell clothes, while Akashi clothing store sells costumes for games...well, or it would be more appropriate to say erotic outfits.

Based on Lu Xiuyuan's many years of gaming experience, he was certain that so many red tips were cheated away by the unscrupulous businessman in front of him.

Hearing the commander bring up the old mess, Mingshi was obviously guilty. She covered half of her face with her wide sleeves and looked away, not daring to look at Lu Xiuyuan:

"What do you mean by cheated, meow... that's called a deal. Can the scholar's business and Akashi's business be called cheating?"

"Commander, you give me the red tip, and I'll give you obscene clothes and rings. That's fair, meow~"

Akashi nodded to himself: "Yeah, that's right, it's fair~"

"But I heard that things in the port area are available on demand and can be obtained without paying. Why do you ask for money in Akashi?" Lu Xiuyuan's eyes were stern. "It's obviously a free public product, but you asked me to pay Hong Jianjian. You still say you didn't cheat me Hong Jianjian?"

Akashi broke out in a cold sweat.

It’s over. I’m going to die.

She used to bully the commander because he didn't live in the port area and didn't understand the market operation mechanism of the port area. She took advantage of the information gap and cheated Hong Jianjian with her sour clothes. Now it's exposed~

070-Akashi

"Never mind. I was just kidding."

Mingshi's face turned pale and his hair was about to stand up like a frightened kitten. Lu Xiuyuan guessed that his joke had put pressure on Mingshi, so he quickly changed his words.

"Really? Commander is really not mad at Akashi, meow?"

"No, they are just some red spikes, nothing to mention."

Lu Xiuyuan was just joking and teasing Mingshi.

Although I also complained about Akashi when we were playing the game, why do I have to spend money to get the ring and change clothes after I gave you the wedding ring?

Logically speaking, we are married now. Between husband and wife, what’s yours is mine and what’s mine is yours. Why do I still have to give money?

After all, it was just some complaints about the game mechanics of that year.

Moreover, the costume changes in Azur Lane are quite conscientious, with clear prices and reasonable prices. The most important thing is that you don’t have to rely on drawing to get them like in the next door.

"But by the way, where did you get those obscene clothes, Mingshi? And what do you want so many red tips for?" Lu Xiuyuan asked.

"I bought the fabric and made the clothes myself. As for why I asked you, Commander, why do I need so many red tips..."

With his wide sleeves pressed against his temples, Akashi tilted his head slightly, pondered for a while and said, "Actually there is no reason, meow~ I just simply want to collect beautiful stones, meow~ and the commander happened to have those beautiful stones, so I thought of exchanging them for something the commander likes, meow~ but the commander only likes those obscene clothes, rings, and expanded dormitories, and is not even interested in supplies and fuel. There is no way, Akashi can only give in to his preferences, meow~"

To be honest, this question has troubled Akashi for many years.

At first, I wanted the commander's red tip, and I wanted to trade it for something else, so I came up with many practical and reliable solutions.

For example, when the port was just starting out, both supplies and fuel were in short supply, so she was keenly aware of the port's needs and went to the ocean to salvage fuel and supplies, trying to trade Red Tips with the commander.

But... strangely, the commander had no interest in supplies and fuel.

Logically speaking, shouldn't these military supplies be what the new commander, the commander, needs and is in urgent need of?

But the commander showed no interest in these things, and was instead keen on rings and obscene clothes...

It's puzzling to the cat.

Lu Xiuyuan thought, I'm not a rich guy, how could any civilian player be willing to spend his bonus points to exchange for fuel and supplies?

Whether it is fuel, supplies, or even the Rubik's Cube, they are all "renewable resources" and you can get them by clearing the map and completing tasks.

But if Red Tips doesn't rely on krypton gold, how long will it take to collect enough money for an L2D just by relying on the little bit of cash from emergency quests?

Thinking back to my poorest student days, I was heartbroken for a long time because I accidentally pressed the button to buy fuel and wasted fifty red coins.

"I like beautiful stones...Akashi, are you a greedy dragon?" Lu Xiuyuan said.

"Maybe."

Akashi scratched her head, then she lowered her head, bent down, took out a small box from the secret compartment inside the counter and placed it on the counter. She opened the box, revealing a whole box of red spikes: "Commander, do you really not want these red spikes? Commander, if you want, Akashi can return them to you, meow~"

As a big businessman in the port area, Akashi knows the secrets of survival in the dark business world.

The commander is a big shot in the port area. With just one sentence, he can decide whether your store should continue to operate or be closed for reorganization. You can't offend him.

Even though the commander just said he didn't care, it didn't matter...

But... the commander said you don't have to, but you can't really not give it to me...

Otherwise, if the Commander doesn't accept it, she'll feel uneasy, meow...

"No need. I'm not interested in Red Pointy now. I'll give it to you."

"Commander, you should accept it, meow~"

Akashi rolled his eyes, feeling that it was a bit difficult to deal with. From what the commander said, could it be that the amount was too little?

Thinking of this, Akashi took out another box of red snapper from the counter, put the small handful on the table in, and said with a sad face: "All are here, meow, there is really no more, meow."

"Really not necessary." Lu Xiuyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Mingshi seemed to have misunderstood something.

"So, what do you want, Commander?"

Akashi felt a little helpless. He didn't want this or that. Commander, what exactly do you want?

Lu Xiuyuan thought for a moment.

There were plenty of supplies in the port area, and to be honest, he had everything he needed materially, but looking at Akashi's persistent expression, it seemed that she would not give up unless he ordered something.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiuyuan looked around.

His eyes scanned the various electronic products in the computer mall, and finally landed on the laptop he had just picked up. He had an idea: "If you insist on giving me something, Akashi? Do you have a graphics card? I couldn't find a dedicated graphics card for the desktop just now."

Just now, Lu Xiuyuan walked around the computer city and saw only laptops. He didn't see any complete machines or corresponding accessories.

Even the laptops only have the top-end version of that model, with no lower-end configurations.

Although the performance of the laptop's 4090 is strong enough, if you want to pursue the ultimate gaming fever, you must have a desktop 4090.

"No, meow." Akashi shook his head.

"Ah... that's not right. Even high-end laptops have it, so how come there's no dedicated graphics card for desktops?"

Lu Xiuyuan was a little surprised. He knew that his port area was extremely rich. Otherwise, it would be difficult for everyone to get materials on demand if material conditions were not sufficient.

And to be honest, the price of the laptop he was holding was worth the whole machine, so it was definitely not a matter of money.

"No meow~" Akashi explained, "Commander, what you want is too niche, meow. When purchasing, unless you specifically ask the purchasing department to bring you one, they will not go out of their way to purchase such niche products, meow."

Lu Xiuyuan quickly understood.

One reason for this phenomenon is that the Hong Kong area is too rich, so people never consider the cost-effectiveness when buying things and just simply raise the price to the maximum.

Anyway, expensive things are good in every way except that they are expensive.

On the other hand, because the population in the port area is too small and the demand is also small, when purchasing, the purchasing department will give priority to those demands that are more popular.

Otherwise, you say you want a discrete graphics card, she says she wants a figurine, she says she wants to play with plastic, and everyone talks about their own niche hobbies and demands. Wouldn't the purchasing department have to run around running around?

"Forget it." Lu Xiuyuan didn't force it. It was not like the 4090 in the laptop was unusable anyway.

After Lu Xiuyuan finished speaking, he prepared to take Dido home.

"Wait a moment Commander."

"Commander, Yubari and I have a few professional cards at home. If you want, I can give them to you." If the commander doesn't accept something, Akashi will feel uneasy and won't be able to sleep tonight.

"Professional card." Lu Xiuyuan murmured, "Forget it, I won't use it anyway."

When it comes to playing games, there is no difference between professional cards and gaming cards, but Akashi has said that she and Yubari have several professional cards at home, which means that the other party must have productivity needs.

It’s not very fair to take someone else’s productivity card for your own selfish desires, so forget it.

"So, then what exactly do you want, Commander? Meow!?" Akashi was a little anxious. The commander didn't want this or that, which meant the problem was quite "serious".

"I really don't want anything..." Lu Xiuyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
