Chapter 136: New Year's Festival - Day Three - 2. Royal Castle of Theodoram (Part 1)

The third day of the New Year's Festival. This is the meeting room of Vinstadt's Royal Theodoram Castle, dominated by a dark, lying atmosphere dominated by the floating noise of the alley. But the atmosphere is neither sad nor gloomy. Strongly speaking, would it feel like a 40% mix of confusion and frustration, about 20% of the depression?

"Assholes, what the hell are you after?

It was CFO Fabik who said it in a tone that would throw up. The expression is stiff only because it is the artisans who are influenced by the sugar campaign by the sub-humans (non-fumes).

"Continuing with the May Festival… instead, we increased the number of items. Besides, we're even selling brown sugar this time."

"No, I can still understand that if that's all. Whatever you say, sugar profits are huge. I don't know..."

"Yes. What I don't understand is why I sell it for cheaper than I need to"

"Is the cost too great to think that harassment of us…"

It's harassment - profit exterior.

"You can't ignore the accumulation of deficits rather than profits by selling sweets and drinks that have spent so much sugar at that value. The idea is if the sub-people are producing sugar themselves or purchasing it straight from the source of production…"

"Even in that case, it would not be an explanation for selling it cheaply on a special basis. The cost of production is not low."

Owing to Crowe's Dungeon Magic, the cost is barely there.

"Proper time and funding would have been needed to set up production facilities. If the Asians had such a move, make it our country or another country, it would be strange if they had grasped any signs. And I didn't see any such signs."

Where the Secretary of State, unaware of the circumstances behind it, held his head, I propose as Sir Laxman Agriculture blew it off.

"At this point, let's forget where the Subhumans are getting their sugar from. More than that, shouldn't we now explore their purpose?

To the proposal of the Secretary of Agriculture, the Secretary of State snorted. Indeed, it would be wiser to clean up from those with high priorities than to discuss all the issues at the same time.

"Is it their purpose... the clue is to sell cheap first?

"Right. Why are they selling at such a low price?"

"To think of it as harassment of our country, the source of funds or sugar becomes a problem"

"... that there's someone lurking behind it?

"No... there's another strange thing. They say brown sugar is cheaper too, but given the value discount, it's higher than white sugar used for sweets and drinks."

The secretaries of state frowned on the treasurer's remarks to add contradictions, but the secretary of agriculture speaks so that they can be pushed there.

"That's odd, too... but what I care about is something else. Why are the sub-people selling all sorts of products?

to promote.

The truth is that Crowe, who thought that even if he tried to sell sugar under a new brand, it would be bad for the wealthy to eat it, would treat it to a variety of confectioneries in order to add value. But there's no way Theodoram can solve such a backward situation.

The secretaries of state, whose bodies were overwhelmed by the accusations of the minister of agriculture, who said that they could not understand.

"Speaking of which... I sold a lot of different things this time during the May Festival..."

"Mm-hmm. In addition to a few sweet treats, they also sell sweet-boiled beans like 'Senzai'."

"Wasn't it" Zenzai "? Well, let's just say..."

Laxman Agrarianism rarely has a mouth cage, but eventually keeps the word going, as he decided to.

"... I had one idea for myself, although somewhat absurd, as to the intentions of the sub-people. … it's just that the fact that the subordinates sold a variety of products doesn't fit well with the idea."

"... by the way, can I ask you what you think?

"Uhm... I thought the Subhumans had been challenging my fight against Theodoram."

The blatant remarks of the Agriculture Lord seemed to shock many.

"What!? Subhuman-style love is on us!?

He didn't seem to think he could blow a fight from the front, even if he had the consciousness to be disgusted.

"Stupid! How can you do that with all the strength of the suburbs without a country?

"Now we are confused by the cheap sale of sugar. But even if the subpeoples have been engaged in a kind of economic war, I don't think there's any need to sell all sorts of things like this."

Treasurer Fabik agrees with that as an expert too.

"I agree. If we are going to wage an economic war, it would be more effective to distribute the sugar we hold in our hands to the city at once, as was pointed out during the May Festival. If you don't have enough, you should narrow it down."

To the point from the two intellectuals, we all think together.

"... Sir Laxman, don't you have something on your mind?
