The Economics of Prophecy

Three Stories: Is First Half Effort Worth Each Person?

"Oh, it's a fine shop."

Just in front of the Belmini Chamber of Commerce, I said. A grand three-story chamber of commerce. There are four times as many vinders. I was nervous when I imagined it was like 800 houses.

"What's Vinder on the face path saying to Grand Duke Mansion?"

Lilka, who led us, stunned me.

"No, because..."

"The series is bigger. It's bigger than ours."

"Did you?"

"Because you specified it."

"We're narrow. Seniors D'Argan and Prla are busy. Sometimes the ingredients are beans."

What's more, Natalie is not a college student, so the curator's office is hard to use.

"I guess both seniors haven't finished dealing with your impotence at the fair yet. Anyway, Meer hasn't been called by the Grand Duke either, so hold on tight."

Meer is well versed in all of our business, and she's a representative officer, to say the least. My father is full of guild business.

"Awesome Mansion......"

"You don't have to hesitate, though it's weird for me to say. Because it's already broken friendliness as a place to go with Vinder."

Lilka told Natalie of the look on her nervous face.

"Nothing. Even my house is a silver chamber of commerce. Look, Natalie was in the Guild Commander's shop."

Vinaldia pressed Natalie's back. Speaking of which, you barely knew about Natalie. Guild leader's shop. Drefano...

"Welcome aboard,"

"What!? Oh, oh...... Is that it?"

Wearing a green piece, my classmate like a rich lady poked me in the void. I didn't know for a moment because of the usual missed tone. The scabbard on my cheeks remains intact, but I can clearly see my hidden brown eyes with my forehead today.

"Well, that'll help me lend you a place today."

I answered Belmini.

"... or they'll take you to the Grand Duke's mansion again. And His Royal Highness the Grand Duke and His Royal Highness the Prince are present."

"No, I'm not going that far on boulders. Look, Prince Craig seems to be a little rough with the Knights. You see, His Royal Highness is not as interested in many things as Alfina."

Belmini just sighed, even though I denied it.

"Miss Shelley."

"Petra. Show the customer to the reception room. I'll get your father."

When I told the maid that, Belmini pulled into the back.

"What Shelley?

"You... Her name."

"I didn't know. Uh, is Lilka... Lilka?"

I remember the name of the house, it's definitely a trit.

◇ ◇

"Right here."

"Wow, that's a nice room."

"So give me the conference room at the Grand Duke's... In the first place, why is your attitude toward your father more polite than His Royal Highness the Prince or His Highness the Alfina?"

"Well, you're nervous about your classmate's parents or something. It's the first time we've met."

Shelley's father and brother, whom I greeted earlier. It was surprising that Shelly was your sister.

"... I'm usually more nervous about royalty. Uh, Mr. Vinardia and Mr. Natalie. Please, take it easy."

Belmini recommended a seat. Vinaldia sits back without saying anything. Natalie is still odd.

"Uh, can I introduce you to the two first? Mr. Vinaldia was the eldest daughter of the Natoas Chamber of Commerce."

"That's right. It's the Silver Chamber of Commerce, just like you, so there's nothing else you can do."

Vinaldia stood up to cover Natalie. To the boulder. I have read Meer's report today, or it was orally recited last night.

Natoas had many customers at the Grand Chamber of Commerce at the Silver Chamber dealing with fine cloth, as Drefano wore at the New Year's Eve chick stand. Drefano, who was a good customer, and his line, and I don't care if he drowned Calest.

Furthermore, the mother is the three daughters of the Baron family who have failed to manage their territory and are married to Natoas in a way that is like redeeming them for financial support. The house was economically recessed. "It's a matter of never being alarmed," Meer pushed me over and over.

"I'm Natalie. I'm from the village of Term in the East, and, uh... I was an apprentice at the Drefano Chamber of Commerce."

It is the village of Chancellor Grinisias. It appears to be a bean region in the less abundant soil of the Duke's territory, close to the neighboring Grand Duke of Kurtheit, Mount Tuvire. I can barely tell about her. It is Meer's view that even when she says Drefano, she should have been a really downward worker.

"If it's a good idea, can you tell me about the relationship between the two of us"

Belmini said.

"Natalie was the one who knew me when I followed Drefano and told me a lot about the merchant."

"Are you a childhood friend? Just like us."

Lilka and Belmini laughed.

"Natalie is amazing. I thought about making jam out of beans from my hometown village, and I was working hard to get it recognized by Drefano's house. Yet Drefano came to that...... Still, I worked hard without screwing up, but now..."

Vinaldia stares at me.

I see, she was able to make fillings with sugar when she was in Drefano doing business in the street because she started it? I was involved in the fall of Drefano, and now it's the way I jammed the stall at the fair.

I didn't aim for anything else, so I don't feel guilty about it. It's another reason if I feel a draw on her.

"Oh, I got stunningly caught in a big storm caused by Vinder" "... I see"

Lilka and Belmini nodded at each other. I can see sympathy in that eye. It's Natalie, not me.

"Um, uh, I know Mr. Vinder's not bad..."

Natalie said that cheerfully. Sure enough, I was in a fight. But if you're going to be working on a project with her, you can't fool around here.

"That's not true. Because I'm the one who crushed Drefano. You can resent me for that."

I said. Although apprenticeships, they were well recognized in Drefano. I don't know the scale, but I was developing a new product. I'm pretty sure I interrupted her future.

... If you think about it, is it possible that it was a measure to crush our honey? No, no, isn't that in a power relationship with us at that point?

"What are you talking about? I didn't say that much. Drefano lost a fight with Kenwell, the current guild leader."

Vinaldia turned away from Lilka and Belmini. But they had a subtle grin "haha".

I've seen it with my eyes to see if Lilka and Belmini can say it. I nodded. By then, it was copper. That's zero persuasion, even if I say so.

"In fact, both Drefano and Calest are crushed by Vinder. Seniors Jean and Maria know. When we were in Calest, our Chamber of Commerce was also single-handedly charged. Definitely."

"... Drefano has been harassing Vinder's honey for a long time, and Kalest is a counterattack to try to frame Vinder, so it's not like Vinder's bad."

Lilka and Shelley said, Vinaldia blued.

"Well, then, I knew this wasn't an enemy nest. What the hell are you gonna do?"

Vinaldia stood in front of me in a bag of friends. I laughed as calmly as I could.

"Vinder. It just looks niggardly"

But they failed. Let things talk because we have no choice. I got a piece of paper out of my nose.

"of my debts..."

Natalie blued.

"Asked Senior Plura, we bought it"

I told you. I was scared because I called it debt, but in short, it's like a bill of payment. I got it easily thanks to you.

"Oh, you, what are you going to do with Natalie?"

Lilka with her head and Vinaldia with a fierce height. I took out another piece of paper.

"Easy. I wish you'd sign this."

"Unco? Until development, stop taking debt and adding interest. Provide development funding and the required quantity of sugar…"

Vinaldia snatched the paper from me.

"I also mounted a supply of sugar. Once recognized by Senior Plura, there will also be deliveries to the Plura Chamber of Commerce in the future"

I went on.

"So, but the Plura people were before this..."

"Yeah, of course I'm talking about if I could make your jam taste better."

Natalie turned out to be incredible.

"Um, what do you mean by ancho...?

"Oh, I did. That's the name of your bean jam. Well, in the form of a code name, it feels like you want me to call you Anko during the project."

"Ha, yes, that's nothing"

I don't intend to take up naming rights. This is only the product she thought of.

"This is definitely the back of it. Something that's too good to talk about. I'm sure he's up to something. We're going to take away Natalie's efforts."

Vinaldia speaks the word "hard work" from before. I guess I'm worried about my friend.

"It's not worth the effort. As things stand now, Natalie failed to develop bean jam. That's the result."

I dared to skip the subject.

"What. This is why the one made up of connections. The effort is honorable."

"The only thing that's honorable to me is my efforts. The only thing of value to me is her accomplishments."

I told him to throw it away. I could see Lilka and Shelley holding their foreheads.
