019 Persuasion

"That's an amazing place"

Its lateral hole inlet was about four meters wide and tall.

As winter snow and cold protection, I lived here alone at first, but as more people took me, I had to set up a house outside, and to this day, it was explained.

"Come on, come here"

Adriana's two golems were also passed without being asked any questions, but that too, many of them had a lot of work to do.

Behind the cave there was the sound of something mining resources, and in another room, I could see growing something like vegetables.

Adriana to be passed into the deep room.

It was a room like a reception and conference room with about ten chairs around a square table with rounded corners.

"I'm letting you have a room now. In the meantime, may I ask you a few questions?

"Oh, yes."

"You should have a drink first"

Before Adriana and the others were placed drinks that raised hot air.

The length (osa) sitting in the front, Harkiller first spoke of it.

Then also Basharko, who sat next to Adriana.

Adriana, who saw it, also took a sip and it was sweet and delicious tea.

"It's called teye. I bought it from a southern country, but I'm in the middle of a trial and error to see if I can even make it around here."

Harkiller explained the tea to me, and it's finally the point.

"Well, first, let me ask you a question here"

"Yes, what is it"

"Lord Adriana, something like that? The two golems I brought you, but are those made by you?

"Yes, I do,"

Harkiller seems a little surprised by this answer.

"... well, if that's true, you seem like an amazing engineer. So, what did you expect me to do here?

"Yes, to satisfy my desire for knowledge"

It was Adriana who answered with a direct ball, looking into Harkiller's eyes.

Somehow, he felt that he should hit what he thought was straightforward rather than far-fetched rhetoric on this opponent.

And that seemed right.

"Huh, ha, funny! Lady, no, Lord Adriana. Let me show you your skill in impressing the Mori family."

That's what Harkiller said. Twice, he slapped his hand.

Then three golems came with a tray, the tray has dinner on it.

"First, have dinner."

What is served is something like potatoes boiled, vegetable soup, and hard bread to it.

They also eat the same thing, so this seems to be the everyday thing.

"I am sorry that the meal is poor minister. But this" gospel "land doesn't grow much land, much crops."

"Then..."

Why not migrate, Adriana asks,

"You can't leave this land where your ancestors have lived"

The answer returned.

"So I'm working on a lot of ideas."

Apparently, Golem was growing something like vegetables as part of it.

"Really..."

"If you are an exceptional technician, could you do something about this problem?

Proposals were made, for example.

"That's right..."

It may also be said that Adriana has little knowledge of farming, so it is unlikely to be able to advise her in this respect. But.

"Then why don't we just buy it from somewhere?

And, I'll suggest something extremely obvious.

It makes me smile, I thought, and it didn't.

"Surely that is also one hand. but I need money to buy it. And our family doesn't have a currency."

"Uh..."

Currency, I couldn't imagine what it was like to live without gold in the sense of it.

"Speaking of which, is there no such thing as currency on this continent?

I asked Adriana even more now.

"Um, I'm not using it. It's barter time."

"Really..."

Each family member has a role to play in ensuring that life is complete within the family, Harkiller explained.

"I procure what I'm missing from the outside, but I don't use currency"

That is.

For a moment Adriana wondered if that would make the economy, but it actually came with it, so she reconsiders that it is not the occasion for herself to speak out, which is an amateur.

Adriana didn't know, but even on the land she had visited so far, the general public often bartered without currency.

If I didn't use currency, I thought I could do something from the other side and flashed one thought.

"Earning foreign currency, let's say, why don't we have something to 'sell'?

"Something to sell?

Harkiller looking suspicious.

"Yeah, that's right. According to what I just saw earlier, the Golem was mining resources, right?

"Mm-hmm. I dig out metal, magic crystals, etc."

"You just have to sell it because you can have a little bit of it."

"Hmm, I see. But to whom?

"On the southern continent."

The term "south" here means that Adriana is located south of the continent that she has now visited.

"Hmmm..."

"The southern continent......" The Lauren continent "and the people who live there call it, but it's warmer there than here, and it harvests more crops. Shouldn't I buy it from there?

"... this continent is called the 'Gondor continent'"

After a lot of silence, Harkiller opened his mouth.

"'Lauren continent' or... to be honest, I don't like those who live there"

"Why?

I am also from that continent of Lauren. Adriana bumped into doubt.

"Once upon a time, those who fled this Gondor continent lived in what you call Lauren."

"Huh..."

"A division, so to speak. Besides, they're the ones who have limited access to the main house. I can't buy the essentials from them."

……

Whether or not the inheritance is correct is not an issue at this time. Because it's their bullying problem.

Adriana wanted to hold her head.

In the first place, she was an engineer and visited this' Gondor continent 'because she thought that there were likely people in the North who had knowledge they did not know.

No, should I say 'guessed' rather than 'thought'?

People told me from Shuki that they live all the way west.

Countries called Mitsuho and Fuso.

Because the speculation I drew from them is that if I try to come north, it will just get worse and worse.

gossip.

Adriana knows empirically that these feelings about 'pride' are troublesome.

Once upon a time, when I was traveling with my father Shuki, those who were imprisoned by the old us did not accept engineering magic with hard work.

(Really, it's troublesome...)

Adriana, sighing in her heart, managed to persuade her.

"I'm not buying essentials, I'm selling essentials."

"Yeah? What do you mean?

The reaction came back to the rhetoric 'I'll sell you'.

"There are a lot of things that are missing and missing from the other continent. That's what I'm selling you. Of course, you just have to pay for it."

"Hmmm..."

To this suggestion of hers, a contemplative harkiller. I thought Adriana might be able to do this.
