Frontier Lord Starts Out With a Population of 0
President of the Chamber of Commerce
"No, no, it's been a long time, it's Paige Fa."
I'm sorry to hear that you're busy.
Even so, a few unexpected events have happened... and I need you to come to Diaz quickly...
Ah, I can confirm that the child of Kiko who was the subject of the discussion before is living well. For now, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Diaz for his generosity. "
Whether in a hurry or confused, Paige Fa swings her hand to the right or to the left and speaks quickly, then leads me to the center of the flock of carriages.
"Yes, yes, if you just come here... er, yes."
Diaz will be surprised by this number of carriages, but half of them are about investments made by Diaz and Yaten, and they are prepared by the Pagine Chamber of Commerce in the name of the Beastman Country.
Then what is the other half? Paigin Octado, the father of the Paigin Chamber of Commerce, who heard about the state of the previous meeting, the previous trade, and various other stories, strangely stretched out... It is a favorable product prepared for Mr. Diaz who will become a good customer in the future.
In other words, yes, it's a gift from both of us... and I'm sitting here with Paige Octado, the father of both of us. "
With that said, Paige Fa quickly waved her left and right hands toward the large planks that seemed to have been made by weaving the grass in the middle of the carriage flock... where she introduced Frogman in clothes very similar to the green kiko and yaten clothes...
Then, the frogman unwrapped his arms and thrust them against the grass knitting board as he shook the big belly that was sticking out of his clothes, lowered his head wide, and slowly opened his big mouth.
"It's good to see you at the beginning, Lord Maiabadar."
I heard that Paige Octado...... the foolish souls owe the public an exceptional kindness, and I came to express my heartfelt gratitude as a father.
Even if the head of the Chamber of Commerce interrupted the land elsewhere, it would be a disgrace to the Chamber as a whole, so although it is a boring item, we have prepared some handicrafts.
Please take it. "
With a rattling voice that sounded like a thick sway on the ground, Paigin Octado said that... I bitterly said that I would have to take it if I was told that much. I asked him to raise my face, and then slowly returned the words to Octado who raised his face... just in case, with the advice of Aima, who was lurking in his pocket.
"This is Diaz, the Duke of Ma 'abadal."
Paige, who has come all the way to this place to do a good business like every time, is taking care of us, so I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't mind that much.
I'm just glad that Octado went out of his way and prepared so many souvenirs... I can't help but wonder what kind of souvenirs there are in the carriage. ”
"Oh, oh, if you say so, I feel like my shoulder is loaded down."
I'll explain the cargo to Fa later... but it's mostly from the Beastman Country.
Food, liquor, cloth, and refined iron... plus a set of tools that may be needed for mine development and Sekigo construction.
I was foolish enough to think that I should prepare other people's legs... but I knew very well that I didn't need them when I saw the Sekigaku construction site.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! I, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! I, no, no, I, no, I, no, no, no, I, I, no, I, I,
... by the way, the products from the country are roughly the same as those prepared by us, so even if it is the name of the country, we have to make them more appropriate than those prepared by our Chamber of Commerce. "
"... oh, well, I'm glad you even have the tools."
With regard to the customs post... in addition to creating a dedicated place for the merchants to rest there so that they can check the load smoothly, I hope that Paigin and the others will not hesitate to use it when they are able to make room and have the same function as a team business lodge.
Of course, I want you to be assured that Paige and the others will be given special consideration so that they can continue to do business freely.
Unless a strange incident occurs, we will waive the confirmation of the cargo and we will waive tolls.
Instead, as always, we want you to continue to do business with the demon tribe and deliver the things necessary for life to this meadow. "
“Yeah, yeah, of course.
That's all I have to say, Diaz and the Paigin Chamber of Commerce are going to have a good business with crushed bones because of this meadow.
... that's why I say it sooner or later. On the way to this point, I saw the territory of Sekiguchi... No, I've seen the design, but it looks like it's been built in a good way.
As a military base and customs post, if you can do that, pedestrians will be able to do business with peace of mind.
However, from the merchant's point of view, would you say that it is better to be a little wider? Perhaps there is a space like a square that can be opened in the open stall when the load is confirmed.
If such a square appears to stand in the way as a military base, it may be possible to prepare it in a separate building.
Oh, and the other thing that bothered me was the location of the customs post. I mean, it's a lot more reluctant than the border we made an arrangement with Yaten, or is there any intention of getting close to the kingdom?
I would build a bit more customs posts near the border... well, maybe I could use that space for business.
In the Beastman country, the religion, uh... I'm going to say... uh... "
Then Octado gazed at the word, that is, at the facade that was near me, and rushed to the facade in a hurry. Frogman's ears were in a position that seemed to be there, and he clapped his ears around the back of his cheek close to the back of his head.
Then Octado,
"Temple! Yes, we are allowed to do business on the street in front of the temple."
The temple will protect you and give you permission so you can do business safely and securely.
If you make that place around the Sekiguchi, things and people will go together actively... It will be a place of exchange, and the friendship between the kingdom and the Beastman country must also deepen in a good direction. "
And, saying that, he rubbed his hands against Gnigny.
It was an octado that spoke without a strange accent, but looking at the current situation, it is not that I am used to the kingdom language, but perhaps it is the result of learning the kingdom language and studying hard by someone like Fa.
From that place, it was told that Octado really wanted to get along with us... I approached Octado and held out my hand and asked for a handshake.
Then Octado rolled up his eyes, looked surprised, stood up in a big hurry, wiped his hands with his clothes, and shook his hand... narrowed his eyes, raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.
Then Octad opened his mouth,
"I'm glad that you're still the personality I heard from the fools... I'm just thrilled that I've gotten a new friend at this age.
Unfortunately, I don't want to be of any help to this Octado and Lord Maabadal... I hope I can advise you on the territorial extension of the Sekiguchi, but could you give me some time? "
That's what I'm saying.
In response to that, I nodded with a smile, and Octado said, "Now, quickly"...... and sat on the board again, giving instructions to the guards who were holding it around him...... I didn't expect the guards to grab and lift the sticks that were attached to the board...... and bring their own things into a huge place in the horse-drawn carriage flock.
