My sister and I moved around the world until I unified the continent to protect my sister.

Mr. Listella gives me all sorts of information, but what caught my attention in it was that the price of slavery had recently fallen.

Elf slaves in particular have fallen tremendously, until now they have stabilized at 1 million astols per person, but they have fallen to about 700-800,000 astols.

Given that half a million astols is the price of a collar, Mr. Elf alone is almost half the price.

The reason is obvious: as a result of the collapse of many aristocrats and chambers of commerce in the recent civil war, the slaves used there are flowing into the market in large numbers and temporarily oversupplied.

Among them, there are many people who were used in the leadership forces around the country regarding the slavery of elves.

It brings back memories of hearing disgusting stories that elf slaves used in the military are used as a gateway to the lust and stress of soldiers, in addition to carrying loads and miscellaneous service.

It makes me feel heavier, but it's also the other way around.

Elf slaves are usually naturally crushed to death there once they are bought, and only children reared on the ranch go to the slave market.

But now, there may be an elf from the woods in the market.

With the acquisition of territory in the northern Great Forest Zone, plans are gradually under way to return the elves to the forest, but the problem is how to feed the elves from a large number of ranches.

Whatever Elves are from the woods, Elves from the ranch, who have been kept as slaves since birth and do not have the skill to live on their own, cannot be good with that if they remove their collars and release them into the woods.

When I asked Lynne about it before, there were 50 people who could sustain it steadily with their own sampling skills.

It is not impossible to have 200 people just for food, but I was a little anxious to see if I could get past the winter.

It's not imprisonment, so I want the elves to work freely in their respective areas of expertise, and to do so, we'll need to collect materials.

It is also difficult to bring in large quantities of food from human villages like mines because carriages are not allowed in the back of woods with no roads.

There are some elves that Lynne teaches to collect, but it seems that it is finally time to carry out a pinpoint mission like collecting francs of flowers. They usually go into the woods with their master for about 20 years until they serve one person.

Too long ahead......

Talk to Mr. Listella, let go of Listella farm in the southwest, and ask him to bring the elves to the mine to get an understanding. Arrangements are being made to have the caravan picked up as soon as security is restored and the caravan is resumed, but there are still only five more people who can pick it up.

More than 4,000 people, combined with the mines and the elves coming with us from the farm, are very unable to feed.

So I really need a lot of elves from the woods that I can collect.

And now, maybe it's a good time to secure it.

I quickly go to Mr. Listella and ask her to collect as many Elf Slaves as possible that are being resold.

I will deposit 500 million astols for now as a fund and promise to pay extra if I don't have enough, but according to Ms Listella, the cost of selling the farm will also be on this.

I said that was fine because I was going to sell it off on my own and it bothered me, but I was able to gain experience in long-distance trading, and now that I plan to do business around the northwest, where there is Count Negroste territory, I was told not to worry.

By the way, I didn't expect the sale price of the farm because it was also a messy period after the civil war, but according to Mr. Listella, it's not either.

It seems that many noblemen have lost their jobs due to the destruction of many noblemen, and some have become bandits and threatened their security, and the country is also suffering from headaches.

So, they're going to sell in via the Count Negroste family a plan to bring the ex-militaries together and move them to the farm, paying for their living from the state for a while, so that they can become self-reliant in a few years.

If it works, it's going to be a lot of money, including idea fees. The idea fee is Listella's share, of course, but it's reliable.

But this could be a very interesting model case for me because, even though it is an emergency situation of the extermination of the home, it means that humans will be able to do the work that elf slaves have been doing.

Mr. Listella said, "Normally I can't make money, but they are ex-military because they are on the border, so in conjunction with hunting for warcraft such as Wyburn, I may be able to manage to take them to black."

After all, it's profitability that's the problem... because it replaces the labor force we've been using for free with humans.

Nevertheless, it must be an interesting case in point, so I ask Mr Listella to continue to tell us how it went.

For that reason, the bought elf slaves were sent to the mine in turn, and it was a long time since we had returned to the mine.

Before the Civil War, it's been about three months since I went to make a hot air balloon dedicated to the then Duke of Faros house.

I promise to teach Grand Duke Faros the secrets of a hot air balloon, so Eina is with me to teach Linne and the others about the material.

I'm sorry about everything that happened to Grand Duke Faros' response, which was to throw a round at Eina too.

He doesn't seem to feel burdened, so I feel somewhat comfortable...
