Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

"I'm sorry, come to me."

"No, King Rossais cannot afford to be one of the state's most powerful tribes."

Ains smiles smiling.

I asked him a week later because he had something to buy by letter, and when he wrote it he came to my territory.

"I'm late tonight, so please stay. I'll do my best to treat you like the countryside."

"Let's just say something. The business talk is tomorrow."

Well, tonight's meal ...

First, I will introduce members and seats in order.

First, I'm on top, then Tetra.

Third is Ains.

Usually, the customer is the one who puts it on the top seat ...

Well, this is just a lord.

Ron, Rosward, Gram, Soyeon, Lulu in the next seat.

There is no deep meaning in this order.

And last but not least, Boros ... he's currently on a border fort.

Therefore, I am absent this time.

Well, an important meal menu.

First, white bread, the staple food.

Probably the most delicious bread in the world right now.

I prepared salt and honey. Maybe everyone uses honey ...

Next is an appetizer.

First, salad.

Vegetables from the territory of the territory, mushrooms, wild vegetables and olives from the mountains.

And fish caught in the river.

Snail boiled in salt. I never eat.

Next is main.

This time, I crushed one pig.

It's a pork dish.

Pigs are often eaten in these areas.

The breast and uterus of the virgin sow seem to be delicious.

That's because I didn't find it particularly delicious.

Well this is the taste issue.

And dessert.

Fruits centered on grapes.

Unfortunately, we couldn't make pudding because sugar wasn't available.

I thought I'd try to get it right ...

Finally the most important drink.

Spirits.

Ains is bad, but you can taste it.

Will it really be ...

"Geho, Geho. Oh, sorry. This liquor is very strong. It looks like wine ..."

"I say distilled spirit. How is it?"

Ains answers while drinking slowly.

"If you know in advance that it's strong. This burning sensation is likely to become a habit .... Drinking too much will make you soon get drunk.

"I don't have enough numbers, but I can sell them a little ... I'll talk tomorrow."

When I said, Ains bowed down, sorry.

"By the way, did the sword of Dragon Damascus help you?"

"Yes, well ..."

I don't use that much ...

The main weapon was a spear. Isn't it time to cut King Ferm's head?

Needless to say, he's a flower.

"By the way, what is the Greek Peninsula? Can you tell me if you like?"

I change the story a little forcibly.

It is true that I was worried.

I have been hiding in the forest for many years, so the situation around here is quite sparse.

"Is it the Greek Peninsula ... Well the climate is almost the same as the Adernia Peninsula. There are more than a hundred city-states in the Greek Peninsula that are allied with each other in conflict."

Indeed, it is almost the same state as Adernia Peninsula.

"Well, that's right. The difference is that all of the city-states are surrounded by stone walls, and if an invasion of an enemy occurs, a ceasefire will occur with each other and fight against the enemy?"

"Even though the northern part of the Adernia has been ruled by Gauls for a hundred years, our southern nations are all about war."

There is a place called Galia north of Adernia Peninsula.

The Gallic kingdom, Roselle, is invading the Adernia Peninsula.

Already, the northern half has been robbed and seems to be moving south.

And the kings of Demorgar, Gilbed, and King Faldham, which were oppressed by the kingdom of Rosel, went south, and under that south, we were the kingdom of Rossais ... that is, my territory was threatened.

In other words, it is in the state of a bead.

I guess the South Adernia nations will be able to get rid of the Roselle kingdom if they work together ...

Well, it's impossible.

"By the way, where is Almus in Greek?"

"From Tetra, she's half a Christian."

Before learning, I'm blessed.

"Hey ... my mother"

Tetra nods at Ains's words.

"It's named Helena. It seems he started seeing his father while traveling in this territory."

"Helena-sama ..."

Ains drinks while muttering Helena, Helena.

"When you hear the word" Christian, "you have an image of a very developed country ... are there any enemies?"

Surround the walls with stones.

Few countries have achieved this on the Adernia Peninsula.

Is there an enemy even if there is such technology?

"I'm there, no matter how many people are aiming for rich Greece. Are the Persian Empire and Pofenia typical?"

"Persian Empire? Pofenia?"

I've never heard of it.

Or where is it?

Even Christians have the image of being very far away.

"Pofenia is just beyond the eyes and nose of the Adernia Peninsula. Did you know that there is an island called Triscieria just south of the Adernia Peninsula? If you go a little south from there, you will find Pofenia."

Ains drinks distilled spirits.

"They've been doing maritime trade in the Tethyan Sea for a long time ... they don't like us to take it away. We're always fighting. Well now the Tethyan Sea is becoming our sea I have it. "

Ains continues to speak of Pofenia.

He seems to be drunk.

"What is the Persis empire?"

"The Persian Empire is a great power on the east side of Greece. These guys are really greedy guys. They've been on the road twice in Greece. The first was 200,000 and the second was It was about 300,000. Well, it's just a number. Both times, we are the winner of the Christian Union. "

200,000 and 300,000 ……

The scale is incomparable with the kingdom of Rosais.

Naturally not the whole army. The nation will be sending thousands of troops to other borders due to the size of the country. Will the total force be around forty thousand?

The kingdom of Rossais can only mobilize about 5,000 even if all the tribes cooperate.

I can't win even if I stand upside down.

But since it seems to be a country farther away than the Greek Peninsula, there will be no chance to be involved in the future.

Relief, relief.

"But it's amazing. How did you win the 300,000 army?"

"Haha, we have a god of war in Greece."

While saying so, Mr. Ains is talking well about the Christian-Persis War.

I'm completely drunk.

The banquet continued until Ains was drunk.

"Uhh ... my head ..."

"Are you okay? Let's bring water"

"I'm sorry ... I'm sorry. I drank too much ..."

Ains smiles bitterly.

"That's distilled spirit ...

"I can't secure a lot, but I can sell it a little."

First, discuss the price and volume of distilled spirits.

This gives us one more way to earn foreign currency.

"So what product do you want?"

"I'm a horse. I want about 300 horses ..."

"Are you three hundred? ... It's ... no, it's possible. But ..."

Ains said hesitating a bit.

"Three hundred heads cost around one hundred and twenty gold coins. Can you prepare that much money? And considering the maintenance costs ..."

Intuitively, a piece of gold is worth a million yen.

In other words, it costs about 1.2 billion yen for Japanese people.

Not surprisingly, we can't afford this much money with our income.

There is no problem with pasture planting clovers.

"Mr. Ains. I was the head of a really small village a while ago, but what about now?"

"... I'm a big man now in the kingdom of Rossais, fighting for one or two."

Exactly.

I wouldn't be out there sooner than I did, even though it was world wide.

"Currently, we are developing a mass production system for paper. Mass production is possible immediately."

"... what do you want to say?"

"Isn't lending a loan instead of a lump-sum payment?"

When I heard that, Ains struggled with her arms crossed.

Then open your mouth.

"One hundred and fifty gold coins a year. Let's admit that if we pay them for twenty-five years."

In other words, will the gold coins be divided into 2,550 pieces?

That's twice the amount borrowed.

Looks like a stupid.

However, horses are needed urgently.

There is no way to do it.

"Is there any maintenance?"

"Yes, that's it."

In the first place, if there are no animals, wheel-cutting farming will not work.

"What is it used for?"

"Till the farmland, carry luggage, organize cavalry ... a lot."

Horses are considering lending to rural villages.

Each time you lend, you pay for it.

It's a kind of tax.

We usually let farmers around the palace take care.

Instead, give priority to horse specifications.

The newly born horse was returned to the Ass family and the horses born afterwards were good to own.

The foals obtained by the Asu family are cared for to a certain extent and then deposited in another village.

At this rate, it is a strategy to spread horses little by little like a round-trip ceremony.

It can be increased several tens of times in an instant.

Naturally, in the event of an emergency, they gather and use them as cavalry or wagons.

"By the way, do you need a caretaker slave? Is it cheap now?"

"No, the rear alone was in time."

Or rather, the rear has already been used.

This is because So Young has mastered how to raise a horse.

There is no problem if you let her teach you how to raise a horse.

So I don't need it.

By the way, Rosward has taken over Lear, who has lost her job and became a liberated slave.

He seems to be doing housework at home.

The day when the child will be born is near.

"But I want to form a cavalry ... I want a person who can ride a horse. Mercenaries or combat slaves. About fifty people."

Currently, only thirty people can ride a horse.

And there are no problems if about 20 people gather prospects and experienced people in Boros.

But to organize a hundred cavalry, there are not enough fifty.

I want to make up for it somehow.

"Hmm, mercenaries are tough. I can introduce you, but will you come to the Adernia Peninsula ... Isn't the fighting slaves good? Actually, one month ago there was a skirmish with the Germans and I could ride a horse He's on the market. ''

"Well then, can you be a battle slave?"

Combat slaves are easy to handle.

It's a reasonable price, but once you buy it you don't have to pay.

"I see. If there were fifty fighting slaves ... it would be seventy-five gold coins. Would you like to sign a twenty-five year contract?"

"It's a lump sum"

It's a good idea to make 75 payments in installments ...

"So I'm at this."

Ains says that and bows and leaves the room.

And as he left, he looked back.

"If you need a weapon, call out right away."

He is still a business enthusiast.
