I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

After leaving the castle, we went to Toneriko's Chamber of Commerce with our feet, sold flying dragon materials, then bought soap and shampoo ingredients, and left King's Landing for Border Sets.

Tonellico offered to handle my soap and shampoo, but I can't sell it because I have a contract with a commercial guild. I'm sorry about that.

It seems that the story that I am the producer of soap and shampoo has already been known to the Kingdom's economy. Well, I didn't hide it, but it was faster and more shocking than I thought. This world should be slow to transmit information, but it is strangely fast because of the depth of human lust. We need to be careful with information management.

The Feilong material was sold at a fairly good price. Especially since the skins of the dragon I hunted were highly regarded and had few scratches, they were bought with five large gold coins. They're going to strip it and sell it to the nobles. Someone said that when I hunted, but everyone thinks the same.

On the other hand, it seems that there is no demand for bones, so I decided to become Wu's snack. But it doesn't look like it's going to last long, so it might be better to dry it once through a fire. And you want some soup? If you're not a chicken rattler, you're a flying dragon rattler... that looks delicious. I think it would be good if it were freeze-dried and mobile food. If you cook well, you might upgrade your travel meal. Mmm, don't swell your dreams!

Somehow the cost of selling Feilong materials was eleven pieces of gold, so I wonder if it was profitable there? Fine meat is also available, and flying dragons are delicious prey in a double sense. We will continue to hunt to the extent that it has no impact on the ecosystem.

By the way, I don't sell meat and magic stones. If it is sold, this is just one asset, but I decided to keep the meat at hand as a souvenir to my parents' house and Dungeon Village, and the magic stone has something to think about.

I talked to everybody about the rewards for this job and the ascending lord. I will not talk about the details. Results only. There's a mix of information that kids don't need to know.

Well! Congratulations! You were the baron who had the goal long ago! That's Mr. Beat!

"Oh, we have to celebrate when we get back to Dorton."

"The bounty... it's not like I acted openly, so let's do this. I suppose the apology for that is the substitute."

"That's right. I haven't even been appointed."

"I see! Wow, that's right, Milord, that's right!

"Uh-oh? What do you mean?

"... I want an explanation"

"Agree"

"(Chuckles)"

Except for some brilliant faces, he didn't seem to understand what it meant to be a reward for an indefinite acting appointment. Well, it's not beautiful, it's about the adult world. But, Argna, what do you think you don't understand as an adult?

Surprisingly, Basil understands even though he's a kid. I wonder if the earth is good. Another step forward for Deacon Perfect Mohmov.

It is a proxy appointed by a great aristocracy with a vast territory to rule a hard to see region, or to act as a proxy when leaving the territory for a long time. In my case, it is not the lord, but the king's appointment, but the job responsibilities and business details have hardly changed.

Naturally, the authority is as great as that of a lord. In times of emergency, they even have the right to make policy decisions and military actions at their own discretion. Because in this world, which lacks the means of communication, it can be too late to wait for the lord's judgment. You can even change tax rates and introduce new taxes.

It is considered a great honor to be appointed because it is such a heavy duty. Appointment as a proxy for the nobility is also a testament to the belief that he is a competent and loyal member of his family. As a deputy to the Crown, even if the title was the lowest quasi-bar, he would have the authority to be treated like a Vicomte during his tenure. I'm only on duty.

On the other hand, it is common for the term of office to be limited to four years. There is no doubt that it is an honor, but it does not and cannot be unduly generous.

In the case of deputies of great aristocracy, reusing the same person can lead to clashes between factions in the family. If you don't turn it around moderately, a faction that is dissatisfied with not being left to the delegate will become insubordinate. Worst of all, it is possible to move to another territory in opposition. That means that other aristocracy will know about their territory, and even members of the aristocracy will be involved, so it becomes a huge problem. Would it be easier to say "a faction separated from the ruling party will join the opposition"? No, people in this world don't understand.

It is common for substitutes to have a payroll system. The more tax revenue you receive from your territory, the more money you get into your pocket. Real hard work in the direction of making the current situation better leads to high income - "regular" rewards.

"Does' regular 'mean there's a reward for not being regular, kid?

"Exactly. I have a side job, or income after my tenure."

Public officials were prohibited from holding side jobs in Japan, but not in the Kingdom. In other words, the deputy can also open a shop.

What this means is that political and financial bonding can be done legally.

For example, let's say the deputy set up a chamber of commerce. It doesn't have to be him or his fellow Faction members. and have the Chamber of Commerce monopolize suppliers to public authorities in the Territory by its own authority. At this time, it is not necessary to make the delivery especially expensive. Normally it would be good enough to make a profit. That way, the landlord won't be blamed for the expense simply because the bookkeeper changes. In fact, however, they have a monopoly on public transactions, and even if left unattended, the assets of proxies or factions increase. No one can punish you because there is no antitrust law or commission. Instead, it will only be profitable during your tenure as a substitute will be replaced by another contractor if you replace them with a hostile faction member.

There are other ways to chew your own business association on land and industries you pioneered during your tenure and gain exclusive profits. Since it is the lord's money that is used for development and industrial development, the deputy's nose does not hurt at all. If you bite your own Chamber of Commerce there with proxy authority, you can monopolize profits without investing. Moreover, as long as there are industries and pioneering sites, it will be profitable on an ongoing basis to stop acting as deputy. In addition, if development and industrial promotion succeed and tax revenues increase, there is a bonus that regular rewards, which are turnover based, will be doubly profitable. There is no reason not to do it.

In this way, the position of proxy, which not only earns honor but also profit, is a very delicious reward.

"Hah, it's kind of like talking about another world. I can't imagine at all."

"Politics and economics are inseparable. You'll see when you grow up."

I'm sure he's still a kid.

Well, this is an entirely conscientious example, and perhaps even worse. For example, to gather people in the name of developing remote areas and sell them as illegal slaves to other countries.

The people gathered for the development are people who don't have a place to eat or go, so even if they don't have a whole place to go, they won't be suspicious. Pioneering failure is a failure, but it's only natural to fail if the beast is spreading. You won't get much reprimand if you make a profit elsewhere. Moreover, we are not actually pioneering, and if we wear all the investment costs, we will make a full profit.

Of course, it's a crime in the kingdom. If they find out, they'll ruin it. I don't want to do it. Crime is too risky.

Or simply raise the tax rate or create a new tax. However, tax increases prove that the ruler is incompetent, so it is better not to do so unless there is much left to do. It's like declaring, "I can do what others can, but I can't." It is also a declaration of the incompetence of the lord appointed as deputy, so it is not normally done.

The same applies to the introduction of new taxes that are not satisfactory to residents. Depending on the territory, there may be a birth tax or a marriage tax, but if you make something like that, people will run out of the territory. The introduction of new taxes will be allowed only when new industries flourish. That's the right way to take taxes, not from your people, but from where you're making money.

"I got a delicious job like that for an unlimited period of time, so I need you to earn it."

"Shit! Enjoy it now! The blood of the sea elves is noisy!!"

"Ufufu, that's right. Let's grow up in a big chamber of commerce where you can set up a big shop in the first place in King's Land."

Hmm, thanks for being motivated. Let's make some money.

◇

For the first time in a long time in Border Sets, I enjoyed cooking and a large bathing area at the "Ponydog Pavilion".

There is a private hot spring on your way back to Dorton, but the hotel's public baths are nice. This bathtub is made of wood. Relax with the scent of wood.

More importantly, the public baths in the inn are gender-specific. I always feel uncomfortable being forced into a mixed bath, but I don't need to feel that way here. On the other hand, the mixed bath is delightful, but the overwhelming number of women makes me nervous. I had Basil and I relax together this time. No, there were some guest essays.

Restaurant cuisine has also become more sophisticated since the beginning. The serving is stylish and the taste is stable. I'm sure you've grown accustomed to counting. The cute waitress seems to be popular, and there's nothing to worry about right now.

Incidentally, the uniform of the day was JK style of mini scuba blazer uniform. When a realistic Westerner girl does it, her legs are too long for her eyes. There are also areas that seem to be invisible. It's going to be popular. No, I designed it. Do it!

When I asked Lloyd, who runs it, the hotel and restaurant seemed to be doing well. As always, the restaurant is bustling with men in the quiet Madame, and 90% of the inn people are always buried. Apparently, the end of the war has led to an increase in the use of merchants from the King's Landing. The war that broke free from the citizens would be a huge victory if it ended. Economic activity must be booming in the victory mood.

The merchants' aim seems to be soap and shampoo anyway. Soon it will be a very popular product. The result of teaming up with the Commercial Alliance. It seems that they are coming to buy soap and shampoo and then staying at our main house. You're making a good circle.

That's why the stockpile of soap and shampoo seemed to be fine. The materials are also seemingly soaring in Border Sets due to higher production, followed by higher production. I'm glad I bought the ingredients in King's Landing.

Meanwhile, there was a problem with the ranch. A monster has appeared.

Originally, there were no large carnivorous monsters around Border Sets. There are teeth rats in the nearby forest, but they basically never come out of the forest. That's why a facility called a "ranch" was built in the Kingdom, but recently there was an incident where the ranch was vandalized and livestock was attacked.

There are four ranches near Bordersetz. None of them are that big.

I own two of them, both of which are damaged. It's adjacent, and there's a lot of livestock. There is no doubt that it is easy to be targeted. In the last twenty days, a total of four chicken-like, non-flying bird livestock "chickens" that had been abandoned were killed.

We know who did this. A prairie wolf. I was witnessing a pastor fleeing. The number is two. The number of herds is small, so I'm sure they just broke up.

Wolves hunt in swarms. The division of roles is very important when it comes to chasing, ambushing or tracking. Not just two hands (feet?) It will be insufficient. Trouble eating them, I think they came close to dangerous people.

But a prairie wolf... this could be your chance to get a new Mohmov, no, Woo's buddy.

Woo-chan is cute and smart, but I've never met anyone because I've been with her all this time. I'm not alone anymore. I may be fine with that, but I don't like it.

I want to see Wu's kid! I want to hold the warm fur balls of Mohmov! I want to love the moose crawling around in search of boobs while mooing! I know I'm selfish. No reflection, no rhetoric.

Besides, wolves are inherently herds of creatures. Now that I have been alone, it is not a favorable environment for Wu. From that point of view, I've always wanted to keep multiple prairie wolves with me.

"Eh, have you already asked the Adventurer Guild to get rid of it?

"Hah, while the damage will grow as it is...."

Oh, my God. According to the rancher, we've already sent out an extermination request under the names of four ranches. The request is a simple crusade, so it may already have been received.

Go check with the Adventurer Alliance.

"Oh, well, then, on the day I put it out, the intermediate current party received it."

Misha, a receptionist who is not as big as Luca, still has big breasts, told me. She said it was five days ago.

But here it is.

As a Mofflist, I can't ignore Moffmov being killed in silence. However, we cannot cancel a request that has already been received, nor can we grab the prey from the side as an adventurer's benevolence.

If I take the prairie wolves somewhere, the requested adventurers will have to pay a penalty for their failure and their reputation will be lowered. I'm just doing my job normally, but that's pathetic.

No, no, I don't know what to do.
