Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core (Book Version Title: A Different World Dungeon Made with the Devil)

Around the middle of February, in a meeting with state nobles at the Royal Castle of Illustria, the increase in the price of wheat over the past few days was on the agenda.

"... then you say the price of wheat is going up about 10% in the house, right?

The Prime Minister answers the King's question on his behalf.

"Yes, the story of the poisonous wheat of Theodoram is completely widespread, and in recent times, the beginning and end of that topic has also appeared in children's meal (the whole thing) play. This has been heard not only in my country, but also in Manastella and other countries, such as Israelis. In addition, the simultaneous revelations of arsenic frost (yes) tend to be followed up, and produce other than wheat tends to be repelled from Theodrum. As a result, the people began to ask for wheat and produce other than theodrum, and because they became thin, they felt slightly (isa) or pricey..."

"You haven't had enough wheat for the people to starve, have you?

"The status quo is that far. But if this is to continue in the future, we need to do something about it..."

To the words of the Chancellor, the king smiles slightly. I remember an unpleasant meeting the other day.

"As some of you already know, a messenger from Theodoram came in the other day, and if we don't put back the amount of wheat traded, the sugar price increase will inevitably stink."

The Prime Minister issues inquiries on behalf of him so as to suppress the dissatisfaction voiced by the nobles who have risen in unison.

"Unfortunately, what did His Majesty play you with?

"It is difficult because we do not adopt price control measures like Theodoram in our country, but I only said that I would positively consider consulting the Cabinet."

One of the secretaries of state speaks without fear. He is a sweetheart.

"But... the fact that sugar increases in price..."

"It must be a big problem."

It was General Rover who cut off and threw away the Secretary of State's remarks altogether. He stands beside Sir Warren as his deputy, not as the First Battalion Commander-in-Chief but as the Commander-in-Chief of the National Army.

"... General, what do you mean it's not a big deal?

Sir Warren answers the question of the Secretary of State of the Sweet Party.

"Theodrum sugar sells because it's cheaper than incoming sugar. Cheap price increases just throw that advantage away on their own. If the price increases by more than 30%, the people will choose the sugar of the incoming goods, even if it is somewhat expensive - because at any rate the products of his (or her) country are completely discredited. As the price will drop somewhat if the circulation of incoming goods increases, theodrum sugar will become more and more narrowly shouldered. I don't dare to take foolish measures."

"I guess the kid's candy balls are a little too expensive."

I'm convinced by the two explanations, together. Belly black - it is a compliment - and the famous Secretary of Commerce makes one suggestion here.

"Then why don't we call someone who holds a deal with Israelis and talk about the distribution of sugar? Either way, it's not a bad idea to make sure you get the sugar."

With the breath of a (ah) (yeah), the Foreign Secretary reacts to this statement.

"That's good. If possible, I'll show it to you at the nose tip of Theodoram's messenger."

He is also a mouth that burns all sorts of hands to Theodoram.

The Chancellor, who identified the sugar concerns as having left for now, turns back to the topic of wheat.

"I'd like to go back to the wheat story, if only the lords... Are you sure?

The state aristocrats who were deliberate also set their attitude to the words of the Chancellor.

"Sir Rowledge, is it possible to increase wheat production?

Sir Agriculture does not hide his troubled face in the words of the Chancellor as expected.

"As you know, the area of cultivated land has come to a point where it can no longer be increased. With more production, there is only one way to increase the yield of wheat itself, or to develop wheat that can also be grown on the plateau. I asked the college to do research..."

"You think it's not fragrant?

"Let them tell you, make it a high-yielding variety or a cold-resistant variety, and if you don't pick up varieties and prototypes grown elsewhere, on other continents, and do a mating experiment, they're not efficient."

"I mean... how do you know it's not something you can do overnight?

"That's what they say"

(... plants from other countries?

There was a man in Sir Warren's brain. That exotic man said he came to this country in search of unknown medicinal herbs. Do you know what he would do to help...?

It was Sir Warren who thought so, but to the following Prime Minister's remarks, I reconsider that we should not now think about it. At any rate, there is no point in contacting him at this time.

"Then you should also consider releasing the wheat stockpiled in the Royal Castle as a next good measure to calm market anxiety… if the shortage of goods as it is continues."

"... to undo the reserves for food?

"No, I was wondering if I could turn what I was taking as a raw material for ale for the moment."

"... you're gonna get some grievances from the swallowing guards?

"I have no choice. The only other idea I can think of is to increase the distribution of rye."

"What about increasing imports from other countries?

"They say even Manastella is feeling up the price of domestic wheat, so the situation will remain very unchanged. If it's possible, it's Marcus, but even for his (or) country, I don't think he's going to increase production so suddenly. You'll see how it goes for a few years."

"In other words, it's a question of how you can handle the last few years..."

He was the king of how he was thinking of something, but his gaze turned to General Rover and Sir Warren.

"General Rover, anything?

To enquire from the King, the General silently presses forward with his hand on Sir Warren's shoulder. Sir Warren, who was pushed, looks back unexpectedly, but suppresses it and gives a toast to the king... Remember, General... what a colour doesn't even show slight dust.

"I was wondering if the Chancellor was right. If I were to insist, I would be foolish to look into the varieties of wheat in Marcus and Israelis. After that, it will be somewhat expensive, but I was wondering if the Secretary of Agriculture would talk about the effect of increasing income if more fertilizers were put in."

Sir Farmer, who was told the story by Sir Warren, nodded and replied.

"Indeed, as Sir Warren said, it is possible to increase yields if fertilizers are given more. It doesn't taste very good in terms of cost-effectiveness (cost-effectiveness), but let's find out about efficient fertilization."

That concludes the meeting for this day.

Then for over a month, the price of wheat still doesn't go down.
