I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle

I have succeeded in giving military assistance to those who pledged allegiance to me, including Gerant of the Circean nation, to take part in national politics.

For now, it has been established in six countries.

In addition, a few candidates have come to me pledging their loyalty, so there should be a little more.

There are a lot more people coming to me, but all of them didn't respond to the loyalty mark.

In that sense, Gelant and the others must be somewhat trustworthy.

However, it is also a question of whether Guerrant has shown loyalty to me and whether Guerrant can be trusted by the country of Circe, which has come to power.

Because his men have no obligation or duty to follow me.

Therefore, it will be necessary to ensure that the Cirque country and others cannot escape from my influence.

After all, the most important thing is financial assistance?

“Yes, no country has escaped the effects of the recession. Instead of giving me the money, I think I'll have to accept it."

Talk to Christina at my house in New Barca.

The best policy for the future was to spend money.

Geranto and the others don't have that much money, because most of them aren't mainstream at all.

Even if you stood at the heart of the country, you won't be able to quickly put your hand in the national treasury and do whatever you want.

But if you don't give out anything more than standing in the middle of the country, no one will follow you.

Even so, the effects of the collapse of the former magic equipment market have not been completely eliminated.

"I will supply money to the pro-Balkan nation through those who have pledged allegiance to me." However, if we don't have the profits, we'll be in trouble. As well as securing the land for Alphonse Balkaline, the magic train I plan to build eventually, what else should I ask for? "

"That's right... I wish it would be easier for me to move people."

Moving people? The magic train is used for cargo at first, so I don't plan to have people on it, but I want people on it?

"That's not true, Mr. Alphonse." No, I thought it would be nice if people could get on the magic train and move around. More than that, if you don't get on a train, people move, right? I know it well because I was originally a pedestrian, but it's quite difficult to travel between countries. You get stopped at checkpoints all the time, and you get asked for tolls. So it would be nice if you could ask Alphonse to make it easier for traffic to get to the country where he became a pro-Balkan. "

"I see. You mean simplifying the toll and border checkpoints. It must be a hassle to be able to stop it all at once. I'll think about it, Christina."

That's exactly the point of view of a merchant.

Speaking of which, I was thinking of increasing our influence and running magic trains to small countries, but I had to think about checkpoints too.

However, I think this is a fairly easy problem to accept.

Because there is a Vulcan church bracelet.

If you wear a bracelet, you can always identify the individual and their position.

In other words, you don't have to check who is traveling across the country.

Alternatively, a person with a criminal record can be identified immediately.

Ask border guards to use bracelets to make people's mobility easier.

I think it would be acceptable to give away a lot of money.

And it's in my interest to go around.

This is because if the border is easier to move from normal times, the army will be easier to move.

Surprisingly, it is difficult to move troops across a number of countries.

Every country hates the movement of troops from other countries within its own territory.

Even though I hate having a group of armed fighters nearby, they're always looking for food.

The army is hungry and nearby, trying to feed itself.

So I don't even know when they're going to attack the village or the town.

Therefore, the armies of other countries passing through their own countries are basically not allowed, and there are complicated conditions for admitting them.

However, if it is easier to move people, it must be a little easier to move troops.

This also leads to improved mobility.

That would make it even easier for me to move.

Ease of movement of people between and within countries.

And the consequent reduction or elimination of tolls.

Besides that, I'm going to bring a few more conditions to the Gerants.

Instead, he offered a substantial amount of money and offered a quid pro quo.

Gerantts rode on this proposal.

As a result, several small countries were gradually connecting around Barca while maintaining their autonomy.
