"Mr. Alphonse, can I have a moment?"
"What's the matter, Laura?" Was there a problem? "
“Yes, have you noticed that prices have been rising lately?It seems that the price of things needed for living is gradually rising, and the citizens are getting dissatisfied. "
"Prices? Food or something like that."But isn't that because of last year's storm? "
The functional beast eggs were dispensed and hatched so that the number of Valkyrie that could lay eggs and the number of Valkyries that could become adult beasts in a short period of time would be just as good.
There are more Valkyries in the beginning, and I think there will be more Valkyries in the end.
Laura contacted me as I watched the hornless Valkyrie cling to the egg in the stables, talking to an invisible opponent with a magical communicator.
Apparently, Laura, a senator, is hearing from the public.
It was about soaring prices.
It is said that the price of daily necessities is rising in general.
Although it was not a problem in itself, the quick price increase was a problem.
Apparently, it's rising quite rapidly.
"Of course, I think there is the impact of the great storm, but it seems that it is not the only one."I think maybe the price increase of the magic tool is related to it.
It's a magic tool? It's definitely soaring, but isn't it related to the necessities of life because it's originally classified as a high-end item?
“That's what I thought, but it's also true that people are actually starting to have problems with their lives.And I can only think that it is related to the price of magic tools that is rising in time.Hey, I don't know what's going on around here, so could you look it up for me, Mr. Alphonse? "
Hmm, okay. I'll check it out.
The price of daily necessities is rising.
Is the head of it food?
This is definitely up.
However, the effects of last year's storm were still there, so I didn't know if it had anything to do with magic items.
Sure, but other things seem to be getting a lot more expensive.
I didn't realize it, but it seems like firewood, for example, was getting a lot more expensive.
I didn't know because it was not too cold in winter because there are icestone statues in the new town of Barca, but I usually use firewood elsewhere.
It is said that the price of firewood is so high.
Moreover, besides food and firewood, clothes, for example, seem to be rising in price.
Originally, clothes weren't that cheap, but in the Orient country they were growing cotton, and it should have been somewhat cheaper.
But these days, the price has gone up.
In general, the price seemed to be rising with considerable momentum, and it was information from Laura that people were starting to get dissatisfied.
"I felt it, too."The merchants are also saying that the price of all kinds of things is going up and up. "
"Did Kristina even notice?"Laura said that the upsurge of magic tools might be related to it, but what do you think? "
“Yes, it could have something to do with that.”
"Why? It would be convenient if there were magic tools, but they are mostly bought and sold for making money."Even if you don't, you can live a life, and it doesn't matter to most ordinary people, right? "
The price of magic tools was still rising.
I think we'll crash someday, but it's still going on.
This magic item market has the opportunity to make money like a reversal, and it's true that some peasants and poor people also make money.
However, it is said that there are only such people, and most people are irrelevant.
Not everyone is on the magic item market, so I'm not sure that's going to affect the necessities.
"Hmm, yeah. I don't know exactly, but it might be a crowd mentality."
"Is that a crowd mentality?"
"That's right. The price of magic tools is going up and up, right?"Looking at it, I think people will naturally come out thinking that maybe other things might be the same.So, for example, you think that clothes may become more expensive and impossible to buy, so you're trying to buy them early?So, I guess you thought that other people who saw it didn't buy it sooner than you did. "
I see.
If you sell your clothes all at once, your inventory will be gone.
In that case, the newly made clothes may be sold at a higher price than before.
So, when I look at it, I think that the price will go up, and everyone will try to buy more.
As a result, the price of clothes that weren't originally related to magic tools would be caught like an idiot.
And it's somehow happening with a variety of products like chain reaction.
... isn't that bad?
Maybe it'll come back to normal, but what if everyone comes to what they need to live and the price goes up?
Or maybe you can't buy what you need for living without inventory.
Then it seems like my life would be in danger.
If so, what will the citizens think?
I'm sure you'll find someone to crush your anger with.
Who is responsible for this?
If the tip of the spear were facing this way, it would be bad.
Or perhaps the most dangerous is Ai.
As soon as Ai became chairman, it might be said that it was Ai who was to blame.
Let's move quickly.
Even so, I have no idea how to deal with the price of the product.
From what Laura said, I decided to deal with an unexpectedly difficult enemy.
