Given the deal from the Principality of Transbania, the easiest one is the deal between the Britannians and some port in your Union territory.

But our fleet dared to take it off and sail for Aslo, the autonomous city of the Germanian Empire on the southern tip of the Swedish peninsula.

The flagship is a Carrack ship. Plus there are two Cog ships, artillery and artillery on them to escort them, but they squeeze the crew as far as possible and load them with food for that matter.

The Swedish Peninsula, the arctic of the human world, is an undeveloped land with strong and barren tundra and coniferous forests influenced by magic vegetables, with no decent crops to grow.

Only wood, which is scarce throughout the Eura continent because of unplanned logging, can take quality products, so trading wood and food is fundamental.

I'm not sure what sells best, but I even have all the cheeses from Transvania in my cereals, so you just need to find out while selling them.

"But General Wang. When they say you can trade with a Britannian port, why are you so far away from a Germanic Aslo port?"

"Well, Admiral. You don't have to pay taxes on the deal."

Listening to my simple and lucid reasoning, Admiral Jean, the black Mojamoja head, shook his belly and laughed.

"Fuha, the general is very secular."

"Tell me about the covenant house."

"But you also know what your Excellency is saying. If the Germanian Imperial Navy is alive, it's a transit tax when passing through the Aereson Strait, a transit tax when entering the Germanian Inland Sea, and a transaction tax when entering the port, and I can't do it anymore."

"That's what we're doing, so distribution stalls."

If the Empire enters my dominated area, I will make the entire Inland Sea of Germania a Rakuma.

Make it an easy area to do business in. If you need money, just let the merchants make plenty of money before you squeeze it out.

It's not just the empire, it's like the royal and aristocratic of this world who set up checkpoints and squeeze taxes when it comes to something, like they're killing and eating chickens that produce golden eggs.

We have to let it change from that idea.

While saying so, the convoy goes beyond the Aereson Strait into the calm inland waters of Germania.

A ship's journey is better than a carriage.

General, that's the port of Aslo.

"Hmm, you're so fine."

There were neat stone walls surrounding the harbor, and high lighthouses.

There is just splendour in calling it the largest autonomous city in the Empire Territory. It was still like a city of wood, rare on the other side of the continent, many wooden buildings had done it.

"Hey, we're entering port!

Admiral Jean commands the sailor that the ship slip into the harbor.

I think you're good, because the Silesier sailors led by Admiral Jean said that this is a better deal than a naval battle on the job.

When the ship enters the port, there are so many citizens gathered at the straw, shouting.

All the citizens who surrounded our fleet were thin on Geso Geso and said, "Sell me some food!" "It's me, sell it to me!" "Please!," he said, reaching out and shouting.

If you do poorly, there could be a riot in an unusual situation.

Looking at the harbor from the deck, soldiers and sailors also have a strong face against tension.

"What happened to this..."

For a moment, I wondered if biohazard was happening.

It's not a zombie, it's like a living citizen, but it's a terrible misery.

There came an official with a soldier from the autonomous city, screaming withered in his voice to stop pushing the citizens he was going to kill.

Citizens also took a step back as the soldiers with spears just arrived.

"Calm down! I'll take care of the mayor's negotiations"

A magnificent man in a luxurious bureaucratic atmosphere, dressed in a purple cape and velcro official clothes, came onto the deck.

I know he's a mayor or a representative, but he's a gloomy looking man with a blue and white face. Those cheeks were still lean and weak on Geso Geso. Even the mayor is skinny, or something. Why are you in this condition?

"As you can see by looking at the flag, we are the Silesier fleet. I'm here to make a deal, but what the hell is going on here?"

"Perhaps you are the valiant of Silesier"

I hear Mithril's Armor shines prominently on my silver.

It's like he's screaming around saying he's a brave man, and he quickly found out.

"Yes, but you are."

"My name is Douglas Zombault, Mayor of the autonomous city of Aslo. I'm ashamed to say that the city of Aslo is starving."

"If you look at it, you can tell to some extent...... But you're making a deal."

"Periodic ships stopped coming after the Imperial government collapsed."

According to Mayor Douglas' story, the Imperial Navy fleet has been devastated by a loss to the Britannian Navy.

In the war ahead, the city that entered Britannian territory can be rescued by the Union of Britannians with you, but the fate of the city that has remained as the former imperial territory is tragic.

There is no domestic rescue devastated by the coup.

Well, the territorial state government of the Old Empire is all about itself. You wouldn't even think about an autonomous city across the coast.

Mayor Douglas was collecting two cogs and a small galley ship in the city of Aslo to transport food independently to save poor citizens, but the population of Aslo, the largest autonomous city on the Swedish peninsula, is more than 10,000.

Very, very unable to secure food that could cover all the citizens' population, they fell into a state of hunger.

I didn't think this was happening, but even in the main realm of the Empire there is a devastation caused by famine, so no wonder that's worse this way.

"That's tough again."

"The ship I sent earlier has also lost touch and maybe been attacked by pirates. Now it's the end of a massive attack on a flock of goblins outside the city, eating their meat and overwhelming their hunger. Please help the valiant Silesier."

Eating monster meat is normal in our brave army.

I wonder if the sense of citizenship over here means it's quite an emergency. Well, the goblin meat smells bad.

When I told him how to cook a delicious meal, he rounded my eyes.

Yeah, well, the idea of eating monster meat normally doesn't really come up in this world.

Even on the Swedish peninsula, they say that the meat of unsavory monsters is used as a constant food source for pirates living in even more harsh barren areas of the northern environment.

The North Sea pirates, who make monster smoked meat and outgrow hunger, are said to be called the Smoked Meat Guy (Buccania) in scorn.

Perhaps because of the harsh food situation, there are aspects to working piracy.

In common sense, I like monster meat, and I'm a Buccanian pirate.

"I don't care if you ask for help, I've been transporting food, so I don't want you to trade it."

"Yeah, of course I'd like to ask for that, but this is a great opportunity. On behalf of the city, we ask that this autonomous city of Aslo also be added to the protection territory of the Kingdom of Silesier"

I didn't expect an autonomous city that valued independence to tell me to make it a protective territory from myself.

I wonder how troubled you are. All in all, the Empire was thinking of making it a protectorate, so I still don't mind that.

"Okay, add to the protective area. I'll leave the food I've brought with me to Mayor Douglas for now. I'd like some wood instead."

"Yes, of course! If you can't eat wood, you can sell it."

I'm here because I want you to sell that.

Well, he's not quite there anyway.

"Well, that's it, mayor. Do you want some rice?"

"Eh, because it's precious food. We must distribute it so that it reaches the citizens equally."

I can't even laugh lovingly, he's a nerve-wrapped mayor, but he seems very fair in character. Even though I was starving myself, I was impressed that I, the mayor, was a fine exchanger when I said it was the last time I would eat.

Mayor Douglas ordered his men's bureaucrats and soldiers to check the total number of food loaded on my fleet's ships and take it out.

Instead, they pack plenty of fine wood into the barn. Looks like this business is going better than I thought.

"Mayor, our fleet will set up regular routes in the Principality's port of Scheveningen and in the autonomous city of Aslo. It's a food and timber trade, so get it over with."

"Yes, Aslo is in too many situations right now. There were a lot of unemployed people out there who said anything would be fine if they could eat it, and I would love to have something else to work with."

That's what Mayor Douglas proposes, so I decided to do the missing sailor replenishment and order fine parts such as a cannon pedestal.

Shipbuilding technology can only be built on cog ships and small galley ships, but since it is originally a city of wood, woodworking technology is pretty good, so it looks like you can make about a pedestal with wheels to escape artillery recoil.

The wooden carved doll also seems to be a specialty. There won't be much demand for this stuff though.

She asked me if I would take it and I decided to take it just a little bit. It's a simple design, so regardless of whether it's a good product or not, I don't like this kind of product.

In the meantime, I have decided to return to the kingdom of Silesier once I have developed a regular route.

The Silesier fleet is now armed with artillery, albeit only three ships, so you won't lose to the North Sea pirates of the galley ship subjects, etc., even without me.

I guess this is what happens to the largest autonomous city of Aslo, where all the cities on the imperial side are in a lot of trouble.

I'm also concerned about other things, but if we're going for the stability of imperial territory, we'll have to think about rescuing this one too.
