Survival in Another World With My Master

The next day.

Me, Ifrita, and Isla took him to the Merchants' Union.It is a luxurious carriage commonly used for travel within Merinesburg recently.

I kind of miss it.

"Do you miss it? Oh, it's been 20 years for you, isn't it?"

"Nh, the wagon I rode during the march wasn't that fluffy."

"Ah, I don't know about that wagon journey... but my butt hurts."

When I was working as a Liberation Army, there was a lot of carriage travel.The road was also close to rough ground, and there was only one type of suspension, and in the early days, I was fully hurt by my buttocks.This carriage vibrates less than that, and the seats are fluffy and soft.The quality has improved considerably.

While we were talking about it, the luxurious boxcarriage that took us on reached the Merchants' Union.This time, I was rewarded for visiting the merchants' union yesterday, so it goes smoothly to the back of the correspondence room.

"Thank you for waiting."

And a little after we were served tea and tea confectionery about our seats, Mr. Floyd showed up.In addition to him, there is another man, the grand man - which means he looks a little older than me - accompanying him.He had a thick piece of paper in his hand.

"There are people we met for the first time.Her name is Ira.I am the first sorcerer in the kingdom of Merinard.He's the leader of the Wizard and the head of the R&D department in the Kingdom of Merinard. "

"This is... I'm always looking after you."

"Nh"

Floyd met with a smile and Aila nodded again.

"Oh, it's the first time I've seen you.

"No, this is the first time I've seen you face to face."

"The Merchants' Union has used it many times to procure materials and materials for the R&D Department."

"I see. I see."

I am also accommodating various resources in the R&D department, but not all of them are covered by the amount I supply.

"Well then, this one too...."

That said, as Mr. Floyd turned his gaze, the male employee sitting next to him nodded and opened his mouth.

"I'm Wells from the Merchants Union.This time, Floyd is tasked with managing the assets entrusted to the Merchants Union by President Koske and strengthening the cooperation system with the Adventurers Guild.Thank you very much. "

Keep your head down.Mr Wells is exactly a man of his working age.He is as tall as me, but his body is thick.To say that you're being trained, it feels like a tight body.If you are equipped with armor or other than the good clothing you are wearing now, you may say that you are a soldier or an adventurer.

"Wells was a peddler.When I was a peddler, I often asked the Adventurers Guild to escort me.I had a lot of experience in the field, so I decided to leave the plan to you. "

"I see. A convincing choice."

I see. I am an amateur in business, so I can rest assured that professionals on the road play a role.In fact, how is the plan going?

"Yes, I will explain.Let's start with these materials. "

That's why Mr. Wells handed over the paper.Hmm, paper. It doesn't seem very good quality, but this is probably botanical paper.It doesn't look like parchment.But the text itself seems to be handwritten.Did you prepare this for today?I contacted you yesterday and have prepared this today. Maybe it is quite impossible for me.

"Mr. Koske's wish was to ensure a job opening for subordinates in the workplace, to prevent a deterioration in security and at the same time to boost the economy, but even as a merchant union, we cannot openly favour subordinates as an organization.That's why I decided to start a new loan with the assets you provided to Mr. Koske, easing interest and conditions over the traditional ones. "

"Well, that's a convincing story.If you give subhuman preference openly, people may have bad feelings about subhuman preferences.In some cases, this may reduce the credibility of the entire merchant union. "

"Yes, in that sense, I thought the aid measures must be fair regardless of human or subhuman."

Mr. Wells nodded and said that, explaining the actual number of loans, the contents of the merchant's business that received the loan, and the expected changes in investment assets in the future.To be honest, there were some things I didn't quite understand, but I somehow understood that the plan seemed to be going well.At least in the description, though.

"Next, regarding the cooperation system with the Adventurer Alliance, we can say that the progress itself is going well.Loans have increased the number of merchants starting their own businesses, increasing merchant escort requests, and the Adventurer Alliance seems to be back alive.We have also begun experimenting with the loan of equipment proposed by Master Koske, and it appears that you are now operating well. "

I see. When I went to the Adventurers Guild, I was going to ask them about you, but it's good to see that the Merchants Association is doing well. "

Evaluation from a third party is important.Nevertheless, if you actually listen to me at the Adventurers Guild, something may be wrong.

"Is there any need for additional management assets?

"There is still room for working capital, but the bigger the original, the more bold it will be."

"I see. Well, I can give you gemstones or mythrills.Too much releasing will cause a price collapse. "

"As for Mithrill, the supply has not kept pace with demand at all, so the price will not collapse.The same goes for the jewels. The value may go down slightly, but the price collapse is not enough.But what about other magical metals if it's not convenient to go down a little bit? "

"Black steel, magic iron, magic steel."

"Black steel is a metal that is difficult to use, but if it is magic iron or magic steel, the demand as a product is no less than jewelry, and there is as much demand.Especially since it is good to sell weapons nationwide now. "

"Selling weapons is good, hey.Is it good or bad? "

The fact that weapons are sold means that many people need them - or think they should have them.This would mean that many citizens are anxious about security.

"Lots of magic iron and steel are strategic supplies.You'd better stop putting a lot of coke in the market. "

I see.Regarding Magic Iron and Magic Steel, please ask for the judgment of Her Majesty and the Prime Minister.I'll just leave a few so we know what kind of quality it is as a sample. "

That's why I took the Magic Iron and Magic Steel ingots out of the inventory and put them on the table.It would be good if there were ten of them each.This makes five or six swings for each sword, and about twice as many for daggers and spears.I can't go with strategic supplies in this amount.

……

"I know how you feel.Now, if you'll excuse me.... "

Floyd starts looking at the iron and steel ingots that suddenly appear from nowhere and laughing at the stiff Wells as he reaches out to the iron ingots.He taps the ingot with something like a small metal hammer taken from somewhere and listens to the sound.Do you know the quality of ingots with that?

"Hmm, that's a wonderful quality.On the contrary, I can hardly see any unevenness at all, and this clear tone... sounds very difficult to hear with ingots that contain impurities. "

With that, Mr. Floyd checks all the ingots and nods deeply.

"Each ingot has no difference in quality.I've never seen an ingot like this in a long merchant life. "

That's because I'm special.

"I guess so.However, please be very careful around you.I'm sure that the information of His Majesty Caucasian has been passed on to the Holy King. "

"Thank you for your advice. I'll keep it in mind."

I nod honestly to Mr Floyd's words.Nevertheless, Sylvie and Merty must have taken the utmost care of my safety, and Isla is accompanying me today as a escort.I haven't checked visually, but perhaps Mr. Harpy is watching me, and Schmel and the others are guarding me.I don't intend to be alarmed myself, so I'm sure I won't lose my temper.
