Price of Management

Chapter 5. Caroc Merchants Guild

The Caroc Merchant Guild consisted largely of four businesses.

Caroc Weapons First.

The Caroc Merchants Guild is widely regarded as producing some of the continent's most high-quality weapons facilities, accounting for half of the total sales. Known as the blacksmith who made Duke Meutt's new sword, Goose became the best craftsman and was teaching other craftsmen.

Iron Ore Mine.

A mine purchased through a joint venture with the Kunt family. Iron ore seemed depleted at the time of purchase, but a new vein exploded as a result of the discovery. This mine, which supplies the iron to the Caroc Armory, is managed by the Kunt family.

Caroc Pharmaceutical Conference.

The oldest business within the Caroc Merchant Guild, he was also one of Caroc's longest-established subordinates. Many years ago, when the epidemic hit, Sachsel, a healer, mass-produced and sold the best sales, which is not as massive as it used to be, but he was keeping the black market running smoothly.

Finally, the Egg Merchant Guild.

A merchant merchant merchant merchant merchant guild familiar with the Horn Empire, Carroc acquired the merchant merchant merchant merchant merchant guild, originally in debt due to a failed ascension. Exporting grain and vital supplies to the Horn Empire has made great profits each time, and it has also been actively travelling between the three kingdoms, including the Kingdom of Leaden and the Kingdom of Orien.

Neil Perry is the head of the Carrock Merchants Guild, which consists of these four businesses.

He was a guild leader in the Orien Royal Branch of the Mercenary Guild and was scouted by Caroc to become the head of the Caroc Armory. After Julia, she became the merchant in charge of the Caroc Merchants Guild.

Neil Perry suffered many trial and error because he had a sense of management but lacked experience as a merchant. It was not enough to run a huge business called the Caroc Merchant Guild.

However, after gaining experience, Neil Perry began to play his part as a true merchant.

I closed down my mercenary life a long time ago, but the nothingness that came to Expert didn't disappear. Even as he got older, Neil Perry showed more stamina with a weapon than anyone else. Even the subordinates couldn't help but work hard at the merchant's earliest commute.

In that passion, Neil Perry made his first impression.

In partnership with the five large mercenaries who were involved in their military career, they entered into regular weapons supply contracts. It was a result of regularly dispatching craftsmen to inspect weapons.

The system that sent craftsmen to check the quality of the lesion was very responsive. More mercenaries have signed with the Caroc Armory, and several territories have requested the same conditions.

Caroc's sales again hit a steep upward curve, and Neil Perry's ability as merchant was recognized. Initially, there were many controversies about having the Mercenary run the Mercenary, but now no one can doubt his abilities.

Ka 'ang!

Metallic resonance erupts.

Neil Perry slams his opponent in the shoulder after taking the Bastard Sword flying towards his head with Battle X. The user loses balance and pushes the target with all its might with Battle X. The opposing Pokémon stumbles, unable to resist.

“Surrender! I've lost. ”

The young swordsman rises with a wave of his hand. Neil Perry laughed and said.

“It was a surprise attack, but vertical slashing in front of the heavily armed opponent is a bit sloppy. ”

“Is that so? ”

“When I fought, you moved back and forth, but not back and forth. You'll need to learn more about attack patterns in a variety of directions. ”

“I'll bear that in mind. As expected, Lord Neil Perry is quite remarkable. I can't believe you didn't write it down and couldn't fight it! Thank you so much for today's lesson. ”

“Well, I had fun, too. I thought I'd never have to catch a weapon again, but a place like this. The Arena is a great place. ”

“I see. If I'd known there was a place like this, I wouldn't have had to be a swordsman or a mercenary. ”

“War is not the same as fighting martial arts. You're too familiar with the battlefield to fight many enemies, so your movements have been simplified. You have to be more creative on a one-on-one basis. Sharpen and polish your skills in this arena from now on. ”

“Yes, thank you for today. ”

After talking to the nameless young swordsman, Neil Perry leaves the arena looking good.

Nowadays, I have a hobby of fighting young UAVs on the battlefield.

I got rid of my mercenary life and put my weapons in my hands, but I didn't forget the intense memories of fighting for my life. I liked the life of a merchant, but sometimes I wanted to move vigorously and fight others.

The fighting pits run by the Kunt family filled Neil Perry's thirst.

It was good to be able to fight without hurting others, and in the meantime, I was able to promote the Caroc Armory to the unmanned.

Because there was a leader of the mercenaries in the arena and the materials of the noble families who owned the territory, there was often a connection with them to obtain a delivery contract.

I was on my way to work.

A servant of the Kunt family rushes in and grabs Neil Perry's footsteps.

“Merchant Guild, the Grand Duke wants to see you. ”

“Grand Duke Arthur? Then we should go.”

Neil Perry turns to the Kunt mansion.

Earl Kunt was a family that owned 40% of Caroc Weapons and 50% of Iron Ore Mines. The second owner of the Caroc Merchant Guild is no exaggeration. Duke Arthur Kunt was therefore a very important figure to Neil Perry.

I walk into the mansion, and I see a little baby playing in the garden walking around.

A cute little baby with luscious blonde hair glares at Neil Perry.

“Ferrida.”

“Then you can't. I'm gonna call you Mr. Perry. ”

The woman who was taking care of the baby approached and paid attention.

“Mr. Perry. ”

“Haha. Yes, it's the ferry, Miss Elena. I wonder how she was doing.”

“Yes.”

The mothers were Leira and Elena, the family of Arthur the Grand Duke.

Elene, who is just two years old, opens her arms to Neil Perry.

“Mr. Perry. I'm flashing, huh? I'm flashing.”

“Haha, I see. ”

Neil Perry flickers at Elena. Swinging the roof around, Elena falls asleep laughing.

“He's mad at me just for playing with Perry. I'm afraid that's not troubling. ”

“What are you talking about? Every time I play with Miss Elena, I feel happy because I have a daughter. ”

“You're going to be a sweet father. Are you sure you don't want to get married now? ”

“Haha, I was too old for that. ”

“There's no such thing. He's still a fixer-upper for the Caroc Merchants Guild. ”

“Honey, stop bothering me with Ferry Week. ”

Arthur, the Grand Duke, who just came out of the garden, said a word. Leyra laughs, hugging Elena and going inside.

Arthur, a man alone in the garden, said.

“What do you know about the current situation in ligand territory? ”

“Yes, the development of the Tex River Basin is improving. The establishment of shipyards and lumber yards is accelerating. ”

“Do you know the new lord, Lord Vale? ”

“I've never met him in person, but I've heard a lot about him. He was originally a big bandit gangster and an outstanding figure for Earl Ligand, who is said to be capable. I asked my subordinates who regularly visit the ligand territory, and they said they were quite fortunate among the colonists. ”

“Hmm, is that so? I can't imagine anyone would be so discreet about Caroc. ”

“Then why do you ask? ”

Arthur replies to Neil Perry's question.

“I have a proposition from Lord Vale, actually. We want to make a military agreement between the territories in preparation for the invasion of the Horn Empire. It's not a matter of time, it's a matter of time before we decide. ”
