Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne?

25/12/7450

I don't know, I ended up redrafting the report yesterday.

Sometimes it bothers the Chivalry Chiefs, because they will be separated and independent in the future, or they will become friendly other countries... even though they are good friends, they should not have a very high level of military bureaucracy.

First, we can say that even in the Kingdom of Lomberto, we are not behind military forces against foreign countries at present, but rather that we are ahead of them.

So, if so, I have to do it now, considering that only a little hard work will greatly reduce the hassle from next year onwards.

It should be noted that all the thick (if I may say so) reports that were prepared in Beglitz are collected without being presented to each Knights Commander.

For that reason, Bastral and Reynolds are also sleep-deprived, of course.

However, the amount of time available to stay in the Wang capital was limited and the luxury of relaxing and devouring sleep could not be achieved.

With the exception of the Royal family at the Chamber of Commerce this morning, there are several counterparts for more than 200 million Z. customers, who have been spending the morning on greetings and business talks combined with deliveries.

And at noon, he delivered the report he had just prepared to the Knights to confirm its contents before submitting it to the Royal Palace, where he returned to the Chamber of Commerce without even eating rice.

And now, I'm turning the three hours between 1: 00 and 4: 00 p.m. to the person who gave me the biggest order.

Based in the Empire of Granan, it is a super large chamber of commerce called Rivera.

The Rivera Chamber of Commerce is the kind of character that combines so-called general trading companies with luxury department stores, and I can't help but notice that it is said to be the largest in his country.

"... Ha ha. This is tough."

The Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, who opens his mouth and laughs in front of me, is a middle-aged Dwarf (Gnome), a man who is somewhat attractive with a beard that also looks like a seemingly barren beard.

He just said that he had led the caravan all over the place since he was young, and his skin is burning red copper.

I don't know why, but I remember a department store manager famous for being a dealer in a previous life.

It's been a long time since I was told it was a department store winter era at the time, but it was a rumor all over the industry that that department store wouldn't crumble because his store always kept up to date on sales and profits more than in previous years.

The manager has been quite helpful since I ran out, and in a way is also a benefactor.

I may have missed the way the Chairman of Commerce laughed and the look on his face because he felt similar to that person.

"No, I am proud to say that only our Greed Chamber of Commerce is able to provide this quantity for so many qualities, not to mention our country's expanse. That and this is because our Chamber of Commerce has a large number of excellent craftsmen… In addition, I don't think we can afford this price if the raw materials are carefully selected from among the high quality ones."

But that's it. This is this.

Like I said, I'm probably the only one in the world who can produce this many quality glass products in a certain amount.

The combination of skilled craftsmen and quality raw materials such as silica sand will bring out products that are close to my quality today.

Except for the smoothness of the surface, typical of sheet glass.

Nevertheless, we believe that with quality raw materials it will be possible to manufacture even higher quality glass products (which naturally do not rely on magic), so our Grid Chamber of Commerce will continue to be a leading presence in the glass industry forever...... is forever too much to say?

Because calcium carbonate, which is a raw material other than silica sand, comes from limestone, anhydrous sodium carbonate has been experimented with that limestone can be produced by the salt and ammonia solvent method (no large-scale equipment is needed, and the availability of coal has allowed production of cokes, ammonia, coltar, etc.), so it has been found that as long as there is a machine capable of making quartz stone (or, of course, crystal) into a fine powder, clear glass will be capable of mass production in an amount not comparable to the present.

"I see. Especially so. However, the item ordered this time will be of considerable quantity. Is everything available for delivery by the end of the year?

The Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce has said this with such a worthy eye.

Hmm, I guess so if you say there's no loophole...... he's a good merchant who cares about a whole lot of business here!

Foreword withdrawn.

That manager is not such an idiot.

It seems to me that our Chamber of Commerce has taken orders for quantities that cannot even be delivered, which is just a little annoying.

Indeed, his chamber of commerce has been placing massive orders.

That's because I told the Reynolds to "order as many as you can if you're satisfied with the delivery date at the end of the year".

And he also says he doesn't need to respond to any discounts.

"Er... I do know that there were 150 sheets of sheet glass with standard products, 62 non-standard products, 27 pairs of tumblers, 40 pairs of wine glasses and 15 pairs of champagne glasses..."

It was good to keep an eye on the order list as soon as we arrived in Wang Du.

This Chamber has been ordering these items in triplicate.

That's 1.76 billion Z in total.

Nodding at Reynolds' words.

Yeah, well, that's Dantoz's highest amount, pushing even the second king (the old man) over a double score in this order.

And the kingdom will earn nearly 1.26 billion dollars as a glass tariff without putting any effort into it - I don't know about this, but in the first place, I said, "Why don't you put the export tariff on it", so I regret that I have to convince myself.

You were listening to us in the corner of the store, getting rid of the cloth that Sarah and Layla were wearing on the merchandise that was piling up beside the business space.

All packaging boxes for all glass products except specially ordered items are made to be sized according to specific standards.

Even the cheap ones are from Ng Million Z, and that's about it.

If they didn't know that, they would have thought that there was a shelf or something there to compartmentalize it from the exhibition space, and they would have covered it with cloth to hide the inside.

Of course, we don't pack everything completely so that we can check the contents immediately.

"Wow... this is..."

The voice of the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, who saw the mountain of merchandise, plunders, his eyes and mouth wide open.

"Please check. Of course, there is no difference in the quality of the quantity ordered."

I said it.

Apparently, he wanted to pay for the delay in delivery, but he wouldn't say he could do anything he couldn't.

Assuming Reynolds or Bastral takes an unscrupulous order, I'll definitely make it no matter what I impose.

Anyway, I'm not going to lower the price here to go backwards because I'm a big mouth.

It is not because there are rival products, or because there has been a loss of quality or delivery time.

Besides... my nosebleed isn't cheap.

"Oh, hey..."

The Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce spoke to the warden of the offering, but he is up.

No way... you didn't have the money ready because you thought it was worth it, did you?

I didn't think about being so rude because I came here with a bunch of escorts and a wagon and a passenger carriage...

"Please don't hesitate. All lids should not be tied so that they can be opened as is for easy quality checking."

Much effort was needed to avoid changing the tone of expression and voice.

"Ah, oh. Let me do that... it's expensive at all costs..."

You're absolutely right.

Even for him, customers who are waiting for delivery in their home country would be quite wealthy leading players, and not if they grabbed the defective product from the start.

Because it is a large customer, and because it is this much, it will take time for the inspection, and it has been available for three hours.

It's true that I want you to make sure that even this one.

Chairman Rivera ordered the warden to wait outside the store. The escort also called inside to start inspecting the goods one by one.

Even with a few scratches, it is not difficult to imagine a very high value, so the arrangement is very polite.

The escort also seems like someone the Chamber of Commerce employs exclusively, and feels accustomed to handling delicate and expensive goods.

"It's a brilliant thing..."

Mr. Warden has magnifying glasses (!) and threw up an exclamation line while looking at the item.

Wouldn't you?

I'm literally making it out of the original metal moulding.

"This box is great too!?"

The escort who is taking the item out of the packing box is also impressed.

Yeah.

Sheet glass boxes that would be used for building materials and the like are merely wooden boxes (they are still well built, so they cost as much as 5,000 Z.), especially since they are foiled with our crest on the lacquer paint so that the boxes that hold the set of glasses can be used even after you buy them.

The interior is also soft and elegant leather, which I think is exactly the kind of delicacy you deserve to hold a fancy glassware.

This box was made by Zondir and the craftsmen who live in Weed.

That costs about 100,000 Z a box.

... Huh?

Excessive waste. Excellent packaging?

Lower the price for that?

Anyone who says such a nasty thing should be satisfied with drinking in the same poor wooden vessel as before, or in a dirty, colored baked goods that are not even very white.

Not suitable for our guests.

In the first place, there are limits to my productivity at the moment, and I haven't priced against the poor since the beginning.

Anyway, it's a pair of two pairs of glasses that cost over 6 million, so I'm going to stick it in the packing box.

Besides, it's embarrassing, so I can't put it in my mouth, but I want the craftsmen in my realm to moisturize a little, and I want them to grow backward with that money.

One of the escorts has taken the item out of the box and handed it to the head, and the other escort has re-spelled the box with a dedicated string that he received from Reynolds by putting the item back into the box that finished the inspection.

Around the time I finished inspecting about 10 sets of tumblers, there was a rush on Chairman Rivera's face because the product was completely free of defects.

Oh, I knew you didn't have the full price.

I'm angry that you imitated how you licked me.

However, there is no definite evidence, and we are not out of the realm of delusion.

More or less, that look may just be putting up with pussy.

Plus, let the big customers scratch their shame. What?

There will be more to come.

I guess I haven't brought the full amount here, but I don't think I've brought more than half of it, and since this is all the deal, I guess I've brought all the money or so into the country in the first place.

"Well, Master Rivera. I'm a substitute, but I need to ask you one favor."

Start talking quietly toward the chairman, who keeps his eyes open from the stunning glassware.

"Hey, what is it?

Suddenly he put his gaze back on my voice from the glassware to me and the chairman answered.

"No, well, I'm very sorry. Would it be appropriate to ask for a piece of white gold coin, in gold, for payment? As you know, we had a reservation. The customer had arrived and, embarrassingly enough, we had it ready for a change. The gold coins are a little less comfortable... No, it's okay if the Rivera Chamber of Commerce paid in full white gold, but how many minutes will the customer be coming to the store until tonight today..."

I said with a slight smile on my face.

Look, piss off. Let's not have enough money, it's a help boat.

Jump.

"Yeah, yeah. It's cheap for you. But we don't have a meeting here right now, so could we just sit in the middle with me and the escort and go to the administration?

The chairman says clearly in a hospitable voice.

Of course the words I said are a big lie, and the chairman will be aware of that.

Whatever, if you really don't have enough change coins, it's because I'm the one who's going to get them.

"Of course, Chairman. The test will still take a while."

Saying so, the chairman bowed his head one thing, and shitty and went out of the store.

I want to hang out forever with the Chamber of Commerce, which even I have those fat customers.

27/12/7450

Yesterday was more than a day ago with the rest of the deliveries, customer responses, and submission of the statement of the payment to the Ministry of People's Affairs and Territories.

I also completed the administrative processing of the Chamber of Commerce's tax relations in the administration this morning, and managed to climb the castle at the promised time.

As always, it is a meeting with His Majesty the King at the reception of the two circles.

First, I reported military relations, but I was never particularly stunned.

I guess the king of a country doesn't care about details on boulders.

I was just a little freaked out, but I stroke my chest down ho.

After that, the topic moves to the payment relationship and sales of glass products.

"Wow, you sold that much!?"

The king is thrilled to hear about the sale of glass products.

At any rate, all sales this time are close to Z9 billion, of which goods destined for foreign countries account for about a third.

You'd be happy because you get nearly two billion in export duties without labor.

"Thanks to you, it's a delightful scream for a tough sell"

In fact, he seemed to advertise quite a bit to merchants entering and leaving the royal palace and ambassadors of various countries.

Even the Rivera Chamber of Commerce was introduced to it by the Ambassador of the Empire of Granan, Count Carmine, who said, "There is a Chamber of Commerce that deals with very high quality glass products."

There seems to be a lot of kina smell going on with the Empire of Granan, but I don't think he hit it directly yet, and I think the King had a stomach for trying to make money while he could.

"It's Gried. Isn't that pretty moist?

Asked with an unpleasant grin.

"Yeah, well, quite. However, for the time being, all the profits from the glass will be invested in the railway line to Wangdu…"

Naturally, not everything.

In other words, according to my estimates, the cost of construction up to Wang Du is expected to be about 6 billion Z. in labor costs (the cost of purchasing cast iron, pillow wood, which is material for the tracks, and processing is another story), so it is quite profitable at the moment alone.

Of course, this estimate is appropriate and requires that a construction worker can be hired, but it will not be out of the picture.

Regarding the purchase of cast iron, we are about to consult Wang Du and the professional chamber of commerce on the road about the continuous mass purchase.

I am getting a good reply there at the moment, but in my view I expect the iron market to go up by more than 10% in about a year to a year and a half since I started buying it - and in some cases more.

We know that quite a bit of iron can be picked from the mountain ranges spanning the Midwest Dart to the Midwest Dart, but that would be spent just covering the Dart Plain tracks.

Somehow the Dart Plains are spread to the south, and all of them are going to conquer further south, including there, so the north has to do something about it in the north.

Because the west side will be construction after opening with the Wang Capital, and I'm not really worried about it at the moment because I'm talking to Viscount Yorise about the purchase.

"Hmm. So, how many years before the construction is done? Seems construction from Wang Du (here) hasn't started yet though?

"Ha. Recruitment for construction manpower and feet has also been allowed to begin around last month in Wangdu, and construction is expected to start around the beginning of the year. I was wondering if the construction period would take five years if the procurement of cast iron, which is material for gathering people and tracks, was going well."

To answer politely, "Five years!?" Prince Richard of the guard interrupted.

Prince Boulder. You're wearing pretty good armor.

Is that the guy I gave you?

"The further the education of the husband, the more efficient the construction work is..."

In fact, the number of construction teams now exceeds 10, and the construction distance per day is close to two.

Nine in a week with Saturday as a holiday, is that the place?

Especially since it's a dart plain near flat land if even disturbing trees and rocks can be managed, although I hear it's huge.

"Nevertheless..."

"People were gathering well, and there are now three construction groups with sufficient technical skills and eight growing construction groups combined with field education. Thanks to this, the cities and villages of West Dart are almost accessible by rail."

Among other things, Zondier Beglitz-Weed is about to begin work on the doubling.

As far as I'm concerned, that's the line I said ready to jump off the fresh water stage, but I just nodded that the king and the prince would.

This carriage railway will also be a logistics revolution, but it seems to be only slightly seen as still being for the safe transport of glass products, because I haven't given it enough information about the load and speed at all.

Whenever I use Slaughter Dragon (Dragon Slayer) to make a compromise in the territory, I transport a large number of soldiers, but haven't the Second and Fourth Knights guys actually reported that on board?

Also, have we not received any reports from turbulent waves such as Zydritz, who is a tobacco farmer?

I haven't reported it in the first place, some Sen.

Sometimes if it's just seen as a big, slightly faster carriage... does everyone have to feel that much?

As far as I'm concerned, it was a statement because I won the desire to check on the accuracy and speed of the report, but this is a good spot for shoulder watermarks, too.

Afterwards the agenda faintly digested.

First of all, my lord will be executed at the shrine from now on.

Formal revelations and reciprocal ceremonies for the domestic nobles are due around the fall of next year after his marriage to Mimile.

Also, in the early January-February of the year, Carlisle, the grandson of the Duke of Basbourne, and Belinda, the niece of Count Thurm, and Duncan, the king's grandson, are scheduled to come to the Grits, respectively.

Finally, Mimile comes to Beglitz with the goal of April 15th.

These will be made public through the beginning of this year, except in the case of the three hostages.

It should be noted that the transfer of the three territories lined east of West Dart will also be publicly announced at the same time, with effect from next April.

"Well..."

Oh?

"Yes."

I wonder if I'm finally going to go name the Marquis, so I try to get up off the couch.

"Oh, no, I need to talk to you one more time before I go to the shrine"

"What is it?

I think we're done talking about what we have to talk about, what we have to decide, but what is it?

"Damn, when are we leaving for Beglitz? Tomorrow?"

"Yes, I meant to..."

Anyway, you have to be at Meath and Jer's wedding on New Year's Eve.

There's nothing you can't do back in two days if you work hard, but it's hard to keep flying at full speed to the boulder.

I left tomorrow and thought it was something I wanted to go home with my eyes a little slower.

"When I heard there was a railway line open within West Dart, I was thinking about it in advance, but let me accompany Richard and the guard soldiers. I want to see what it looks like."

Ah... yeah.

It makes sense to actually look at it rather than ask for a report and better understand it on board.

Sounds like you've already reported this to some extent.

It was me who watched it sweetly.

But sooner or later, I'll find out what's actually going on with the railroad.

Besides, this can't be helped because it's impossible to keep it hidden until it opens with Wang Du.

It is more problematic than that to be enlightened about Breeze Horseshoe, a breezy hoof.

"Ha. The departure is scheduled for around 7: 00 tomorrow morning. Should I pick you up at the main entrance to the royal castle?

... Meath, gel, sorry.
