A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Lesson 2104: Now, let's see what you can do in King's Landing. (I'm free while I'm on the move.)
At that time, the faces of the examination platoon and the faces of the king's city were drinking in a tavern near the Silver Moon.
Even so, Simona's private rooms were prepared, and there was a place where they could drink without worrying.
"Ahh... nothing happened.
It's a good thing, the alcohol is delicious. "
The rack was drinking happily.
"Hah... the escort looks very pleasant."
Me and Denham and Haggard have been meeting with Lord Kitamizato. "
Langford said it with a tired look on his face.
"I'm going on a trip to talk more than the directors of the capital."
Haggard said in amazement.
“The problem is that Langford and I spent so much time talking.”
Denham also said with a tired look on his face.
"Is that... something you can say?"
Rack asks Langford.
"Hmm... I can't say."
"That's right... I can't say."
Langford and Denham thought about it.
"Well... this is about the future budget and import and export."
Haggard says.
"I see... well, I'm sure you wouldn't know if I asked."
Yeah, that's right.
Langford nodded to Rack's words.
However, the three Langfords talked about "the whole budget (......)," which actually has something to do with the Royal Guard, but I can't tell you that, so don't tell me.
But is there such a subject to discuss every day?
Rack asks.
"I have one."
Well, it was originally announced after Denham and I talked inside the station, but this time we have Lord Kitamizato.
It was wrong of me to shake it to hear from the outside... right? Denham-sama. "
"Well... it's normal to do this after rubbing it inside the station, but it's true that I also wanted to hear the opinions of Lord Kitamizato."
I can't believe there are so many different ideas out there.
Haa... "
Denham breathes deeply.
"Rather than diversity, the strange thing about Lord Kitamizato is that he brings out the opposite."
Usually, I say one thing because I think my opinion is the most correct, and then I say the opposite.
Denham-sama, that's impossible, isn't it? "
"... it's not normal.
However... well, I decided to think that it was close to chatting during the journey... "
Is there anyone who can do this kind of acting?
"I guess the Director of Foreign Affairs is the only one who does something similar."
Is that so?
"Ah... have you seen Lord Langford?"
The Director of Foreign Affairs is similar to Lord Kitamizato.
Well, I won't say the opposite from what I said before, but if I say the foreign policy first, I will respond immediately to the requirements that come out one after the other.
As a result, sometimes it is the opposite of the policy expressed at the beginning.
Well, you can hardly see the results, but the Foreign Office Director is flexible and presents the results. ”
“You mean you don't stick to your thoughts?”
"I'll stick, but that doesn't mean I'm never going to bend."
If the opponent doesn't pull, they'll change their course, and they're sharp in their judgment.
When the Director of Foreign Affairs is motivated, it seems that the opponent's demands will be met at the minimum. "
"... does Lord Kitamizato give you a choice, and the Director of Foreign Affairs looks at your feet..."
Both are rare talents.
I don't want to deal with you at this meeting. ”
"Basically, I'm not in a position to face Lord Kitamizato or the Director of Foreign Affairs."
I feel relaxed. "
"No, Lord Denham?"
You're in a position to compete with Lord Kita Mizato, right? "
Langford tells Denham.
"... I'll have a good time with Lord Kitamizato."
Denham thought for a moment and told Langford.
"No, please keep the steel within budget."
Langford sees it with his own eyes.
"I've solved all the new problems through discussion... but there's no conflict."
Denham drinks his wine as he looks toward the day after tomorrow.
“That's it.
I'm the only one who caught a glimpse of it.
I don't know what our director said... you said that Lord Kitamizato didn't know that either. "
But Lord Langford said that 70% of the wealth will go through the political office, right?
“Yes, there is a good chance that the four of us will be able to take the cardboard manufacturing business and the recycled paper business to the test run.
90% of afforestation projects will go through. ”
"Then, no problem."
And... how about my explanation... "
Denham said while thinking.
"I'll leave that to you, Lord Denham."
If you don't come through... the Kitamizato-sama will move. "
Langford ended up telling the truth.
"It's the strongest threatening complaint."
I can only predict a future where paper demand is pressing!
Mark, please. "
"I'm in the management department... so..."
Haggard refuses to say I'm not involved.
"It's going to be a project that the Bureau will deal with as a whole... it's going to be a problem.
If you don't come through... that's what Lord Kitamizato will hear.
Let's get out of here!
In a sense, this is the economic and financial bureau of the capital city... No! It's something we have to work on!
... let's get through this together... "
Director, you're weak at the end, aren't you?
"... you'll know if you get to my position."
It's hard to negotiate with other bureaux.
It's good that Lord Langford says it's a good chance, but in the end, my explanation will tell the difference between success and failure...
I have to think of a good explanatory statement... Was there someone who would write a good manuscript of the speech? "
"I don't know."
"The Finance Bureau is on the listening side, so that's it."
Ohhh... are you going to hang around here...
Denham and his men were about to be abandoned.
