The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

Rondo de Terra's economic policy was about to achieve great success.

"Coata! We have another request to open the store! Now it's the Diotes Chamber of Commerce in Elsa, King's Harbor City."

"Speaking of Elsa's Diotes, that he was originally more open to being royal, you know?

"Yes! History and format is Elsa One! It's a prestigious chamber of commerce with three fingers in the whole of Solvania! Oh... I can't believe that Diotes is telling Terra he wants to branch out..."

It's like a dream, and I sigh in my chest at Erica, who shines her eyes. Is it like a dream?

... really... if it was a dream, it would have been good.

"... Emily?

To Lord Erica's words, I will be much more conscious. There was Erica's worried face there.

"Hey, what is it?

"What's going on? It's kind of a non-floating face..."

"I won't sit down for that. The story of the Diotes Chamber of Commerce branching out to Terra, is truly superimposed. And even more so, Terra will develop."

"Right? Terra's going to develop more than ever, and she's going to follow the foil! Awesome! Thanks to Coata for everything!

Innocent...... Lady Erica laughing really innocently.

"... I really sat down. But, Master Erica. I don't have any more space for you to open the store?

"... Coata?

"Inform the Diotes Chamber of Commerce that the acquisition of land will take some time"

"... keeping the Diotes Chamber of Commerce waiting? Are you sure?"

"It doesn't matter where they are. Customers should be treated equally. Regardless, I will try to make some convenience if you pile up more than 10,000 deposits...... I still can't do things I can't do. We can't cut back on time."

"... are you okay? So if the Diotes Chamber of Commerce says it won't open the store..."

"Let's give up thinking we didn't have any ties then. Diotes isn't the only Chamber of Commerce... and you didn't ask for it from here in the first place, did you?

"... right. If you don't like it, you just have to let it out!

That's what I said, beautiful...... Lady Erica laughing gorgeously. That smile makes my chest tickle, tickle and ache.

"See you, Emily! I'm asking you to buy some land!

"... Yes, sir."

Give my regards to Erica. Open the door to the room and try to get out of the city.

"... Emily"

Matsuyo-sama calls me.

"... what is it?

"… please pay close attention to the acquisition of the land. Try not to thread the money, but listen to what you want."

... Easy.

"... Yes"

... Easy. Really, easily!

"... awed"

... really... it's easy for me to say!

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

Exit Erica's Hall and walk through the city of Terra.

"Ooh nail! We're totally out of nails! Bring it!

"Ugh!

You can hear the tongues and the hammers in the city. There was a wide variety of people walking on the city's boulevard, from the things of style that at a glance could be seen as merchants, to the carpenter's parents, to the figure of the liquor store's general, no matter how they saw it.

"... Sounds magical"

Until just six months ago, who would have imagined Terra overflowing with this vibrancy? Magic, the word comes firmly.

A factor in Terra's great success lies in the construction of this store. Naturally, you need wood or nails to build a store. Merchants are sensitive to profits. When I heard the timber was sold to fly in Terra, each merchant came to sell the timber to Terra. Large quantities of wood daily from Solvania, Laurento, Lime Free Cities, etc. as well as from every city in the Flame kingdom such as Titanium, Laura and Bundesbacca, starting with the King's capital Lalkia.

The timber brought in was sold dong. Whatever, the construction of the store is going on without waiting. Wood is processed from where it was brought in and becomes a store. Naturally, the carpenters are overwhelmingly understaffed. All the carpenters, who had no work to do, pushed at Terra.

The carpenters are human beings, and they don't live by eating Xia. With the carpenters gathered, the inns and taverns were crowded. Then naturally, I can also sell food and alcohol that I unload in my inn or tavern like an idiot. The merchant who had so far brought wood saw Terra's liveliness and now also brought in food and booze.

'Whatever you take to Terra right now, I'm sure. I can sell anything to fly.'

and it didn't take that long to talk amongst the merchants. In that case, it makes sense to want to branch out to Terra, who exchanges economic dynamics. Besides, the cost of opening the store comes for free.

"... really, it's magic"

Reputation calls for reputation, and more and more stores are being built in Terra. So much so that a block named Commercial District is not enough. The acquisition of the land goes on Don, and the construction of the store circles over it. No matter, the carpenters get together and the inns and liquors make money. Later its repetition.

"... let's go"

Behind the businessmen, I move on.

"... hello"

"... there you are - what's up, Emily?"

Just a short distance from the commercial district, as if it had been left over from the times...... 'As it used to be', that is, the figure of a lonely terra remains, 800 houses with a single compartment.

"... you're not going to punish me, are you? You've been saying that, haven't you? What is this store that has been around for generations? You know that, don't you? They're not selling this place."

"... but"

My husband and I in this 800 house are familiar. Before Matsuyoshi arrived yet, until Terra developed as she does now, she bought vegetables at this store. The price is a little tight, but it's fresh and the range is good, and it was a good store.

... Yes, 'it was'

"It's been going on for generations, isn't it? Well, sales are falling a bit now. But this has happened many times before. Hore, now with novelty everyone...... what is it? Commercial district? I'm going to your shop. They're all coming back again. If we didn't have this shop, we'd be in trouble, right?

……

I have no words to give back to that word. It's never because my husband's words are on the line.

"... is it?

Doesn't my husband know about the thriving business district? I can't believe the people who used to go to that commercial district store that was fresher than this store, cheaper than this store, and had a better range of products than this store came to this store...

"... is that really happening?

There, if you go to the commercial district, there's so much stuff in there that it's not an exaggeration to say that everything on the continent of Orkena will be in order. I can't believe people are coming back to this neighborhood with only 800 houses and a few small shops...

"Hmm! Emily doesn't know! I've always cared about connections between people. That's why I'm fine! I'm sure we'll all be back!

"But..."

I glance at the eight hundred shops. In the old days, the shelves lined with bright vegetables displayed a slightly shriveled vegetable. I guess it hasn't sold.

"... ok. I'll be back."

"Next time you come, come as a guest, will you? That's right, Emily. I'm at the corner, why don't you buy me something?

"... right. Now, take this onion."

Of the shelves displayed, I take the only decent like onion and I hand the price to my husband.

"Hehe, Mai. - Oh? I don't know, this is it."

"Whatever you say...... it's an extradition deed?

My husband took a serious look at the deed of extradition handed over for a single copper coin. What the fuck?

"... not enough?

Two onions can be bought in the spare store with an extradition deed for one copper coin. No way, it's more than that.

"... you can't. We can't use this."

"Huh?"

"We've only been dealing with coins for a long time. You know Emily, right?

"That would be... yes. But this is worth the coin, right? In many shops in the commercial district, it's more normal to trade here, isn't it?

"No! Emily, you can't sell it unless it's a coin! I can't trust you with this!

With that said, I rush back to my husband, who pockets me in my clothes. I haven't had a coin lately because of all the shopping on my extradition deed......

"... only white gold coins, would you mind?

"What, is there only a big one? Yeah...... then one gold coin, four silver coins and nine bronze coins will be paid back. Maido ~"

Shizuku, and they hand me heavy coins and onions, and I turn my back on the store.

……

I stare alternately at the coins and onions in my hand, and I sigh. I can't even use the extradition deed, not just the assortment. In this day and age, can a store like that survive?

"... I can't, master"

Bad convenience, bad assortment, expensive. No one could have come to such a store.

"... please... sell the store, my lord"

... at the very least, apart from my thoughts of wanting you to open a store in the margins with the money you have wrapped up.

"... what do you mean, Matsuyo-sama!

... I heard that the owner of the store came to borrow money from the land and the store as collateral, three days later.
