"As a companion, Your Excellency Jiuye is very reliable, see you tomorrow."

"oh oh?"

Pina's speech suddenly made Jiuye a little confused, but at least it was not a bad word.

Then there was a small episode.

Jiu Ye, who hurried back to the room, met Kuang San at the door, and Kuang San hugged him while smelling the fragrance, and at the same time, a book was stuffed into his arms.

"Give it to me."

"I like girls!!!"

Kuangsan also started to 'rot'.

----

Today Jiuye plans to go shopping with Kuangsan and the Knights.

There are still two days before the meeting, Jiu Ye and Kuang San, who had nothing to do, walked towards the market and chamber of commerce with the Knights after a leisurely afternoon tea.

The person in charge of purchasing is the second daughter of Marquis Ballesti's family, a female knight named Percy Go Ballesti, and the other person in charge is Greg Go Aldo, who was attacked a few days ago.

Since Pina still needs to process some documents related to various applications of the Knight Order, otherwise she will go with her today.

"Don't bother us, the two of you, otherwise even the distinguished guests invited by Her Highness Ping Na will be punished as they should be."

Percy gave a warning in advance, and Gray, who was walking beside her, smiled at the two of Jiuye

"Please don't pay too much attention to it. What Miss Bosys means is that the two of you should be careful, you might run into trouble after all."

At present, Ping Na is not very popular in the imperial capital, because the power of the main combat faction in the imperial capital is greater. Emperor Molt, who has not realized the seriousness of the problem, has no idea of ​​seeking peace at the moment, and will only do so after a major crisis. You will realize where your mistakes are.

The destination is the chamber of commerce located south of the center of the imperial capital, where various supplies are being sold.

The road is still full of people, some of the passers-by are negotiating prices with the shopkeepers, some are chatting with women; you can also see the signboards of custom shops in unknown alleys, most of those shops are run by some nobles Otherwise, it would be impossible to survive in the imperial capital.

Jiu Ye saw that Kuang San was very interested in the nearby food, but when he asked her if she wanted to taste it, Kuang San shook her head.

Recalling the life of the past few days, Kurumi seems to often participate in the tea parties held by Ping Na. Apart from watching "interesting cultural works" together, he probably also enjoys various delicious desserts.

In other words... are you losing weight?Jiu Ye didn't say it, because he would be beaten up.

As for the reason for this purchase, it is actually very simple. What the Knights currently need is wartime food and weapon supplements, so as to prepare for various problems in the future.

"Oh! Aren't these two adults from the Rose Knights? What's the point of coming here?"

Among the flowing crowd, a middle-aged businessman with a slightly bent waist appeared in front of everyone holding a ledger, with a standard smile on his oily face.

"You can tell by looking at it, you guys who know the truth; we are here to buy food and weapons. You just bought a batch of goods from the artisan city in the south a few days ago, right? There hasn't been any war recently, so they must not be sold out. right."

The businessman who rubbed his hands nodded, and then continued what Bosys said

"Of course we have the goods. Other aristocrats spend their money on other large food markets for various gatherings, and rarely patronize us; but...the chamber of commerce has struggled recently, and the price may..."

"How tall?"

"Twice as much as before, do you still need it, my lord knight?"

"Stop kidding, you still had enough stock when we bought it last month?!"

Perseus wanted to continue yelling at the businessman in front of him, but was stopped by Gray.

"We don't want to cause trouble. As a knight order, we should protect you civilians, so we don't want to use other means; ask again, what is the price?"

"Mr. Gray Knight, I know you, and you know it too! Since the defeat of the United Army, a large number of young men have been captured. It is really difficult for our chamber of commerce to operate."

Without a young workforce, there will indeed be a slowdown in the movement of goods.

"Even so, double the price is too high, right?"

"Sorry, this is a very fair price. Even General Elm, we sell goods at this price. Various chambers of commerce have also conducted transactions with General Elm, and the prices are very high."

"Is it General Elm Fleur Mayo from the Mayo family?"

Gray frowned.

Jiuye in the back heard the businessman's speech. Could it be that Elm is here to make trouble again?

Deliberately raising prices to buy things, so as to make it difficult for the Rose Knights with insufficient funds to purchase new equipment, etc. It seems that he has not suffered enough before.

"Go and buy other things, such as the equipment needed for mounts, etc. I will be in charge here."

"Your Excellency Jiuye, what are you talking about?"

Gray, who was puzzled, didn't understand what Jiuye meant. Kurumi, who was standing around the chamber of commerce and fiddling with a knife and sword, gently held the handle of the knife and answered the question for Jiuye.

"We're very interested here."

"interested?"

Gray still didn't quite get it.

Jiu Ye didn't say much, but walked aside and picked up a shield.

"Shopkeeper, the price of the gadget has also tripled?"

"Yes, that's made from a solid special..."

Snapped!The shield cracked and then shattered.

"Huh?!?! You, what are you doing, destroying goods!!!"

"It's not solid."

"Huh? That shield can't even pierce a spear made of fine iron! You... you bastard!"

The businessman was angry and terrified.

At this time, the goods above Kuang San's head fell down due to improper placement, and Kuang San, who was in danger, immediately used the blade he held and everything that fell from above to fly away. It seems that her level as an elf is at this level. The world can be said to have enough 'weird power'.

"You, you two guys!!"

"Calm down, Uncle Shopkeeper, if you have any questions, you can also call that General Elm over."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you want to know how his knights were injured?"

"Well----!!"

As if he understood something, the businessman who saw the scene before immediately changed his words.

"I'm willing to lower the price."

After repeating the same action, the Knights bought what they wanted at a good price.

"Your Excellency Jiuye is really amazing."

"Cheng, it's not impossible to admit your ability."

Gray and Percy agreed with each other, and Jiuye, who was praised, smiled and said it was no big deal, but he didn't know that the name of the villains known as the "evil husband and wife duo" had already spread in the Imperial City Chamber of Commerce Alliance...

Chapter 59 Please don't make trouble before the meeting!

Emperor: Some people are loyal, some are used, some are envious, some are jealous, some covet, some are rebuked; he is the top of power, the person in charge of everything;

Nobility: A title that is rewarded by the state for individuals, families, and teams who have made meritorious service to the country, or made major contributions in a certain field, representing a noble spiritual honor and a continuing status;

Wealthy businessman: a wealthy person with a lot of money, a private warehouse, cunning and clever people who engage in various transactions;

Protagonist: The first main character of a story in novels, dramas, film and television works, and ACGN works.

All in all, to choose a protagonist, you have to choose a protagonist no matter what, it is better to say that you will only choose to be a protagonist. The strong and invincible are basically the protagonist; A writer whose sister doesn't go out, as long as it's the protagonist, there's no problem!

"It's those two people...it's really...! Last time I saw the male-female union scene in the North Street Custom Store from South Street, I was very confident in my eyesight. I must be right, it's them!"

"This is why you are lazy! But since it is those two people, they will be punished sooner or later, right? How dare you mess around in the imperial capital, what is it if you are not stupid?"

"That's right, that's right. I heard that some chambers of commerce owned by nobles have been 'persuaded' to reduce their prices by special means. Princess Pinna's Rose Knights may become the biggest winner, and they... will probably become victims. "

In the castle where the emperor lived in the capital of the empire, three young men with cleaning tools were talking quietly beside them, even so they were overheard by Jiu Ye, who was very hard of hearing.

Jiuye, who was walking among the Rose Knights, didn't pay too much attention to it. Since he and Kuangsan were engaged in affairs in various chambers of commerce, he had a corresponding awareness; merchants and nobles probably now regard themselves and Kuangsan as two people. The dangerous person just gave Jiuye a chance to show his strength.

But surrounded by a group of female knights, Jiuye, who is a bit of a passerby, made some people suspicious, especially when passing by some nobles and councilors, they didn't think that ordinary people like Jiuye could make trouble in the imperial capital trouble.

In the afternoon, there was a banquet hosted by the emperor, which was also a meeting, allowing nobles, marquises, parliamentarians, and generals of the imperial capital to express their opinions and try to solve the current problems facing the empire.

The conservative system will give birth to a group of ignorant people who are not afraid of death. They give the name of "glory" and "justice" to stupid practices, and they will definitely become safe under the lessons of blood in the end.

There is a saying that is true, humans are probably the cruelest creatures to their own race.

As long as it is linked to your own interests, if there is a conflict, you will think about how to completely destroy the other party. It is stupid not to put conversation or understanding at the top of the list.

"What are we going to do? There's really nothing to do besides attending a banquet and enjoying the food, right? Why don't we continue to get along with those smooth businessmen?"

Kuangsan looked around with a bored face. After eating and scaring the businessman, she was already bored with daily life; in Jiuye's opinion, it was okay, at least she was not addicted to BL and couldn't extricate herself.

It was not Jiuye who answered her question next, but Pingna who had put on a new knight suit.

"Next, we're going to see my father... to see His Highness the Emperor. It would be great if the two of you can cooperate with us. Whether it's Your Excellency Jiu Ye who has the 'Dragon Slayer' or Miss Kuang San as a companion, it's very important to us They are very important guests.”

"Sure enough, I want to stop those fighters. The problem is how to express my position and what means to prove my correctness; I am afraid that after the defeat of the stubborn fighters, they still don't realize the strength of the enemy. "

"As His Excellency Jiuye said, I have seen the strength of Itami-sama's Self-Defense Forces, but in the eyes of the nobles, they will definitely regard all this as a joke. The reserve in their eyes does not allow them to admit that they are defeated by outsiders."

To put it bluntly, it is vanity, what noble blood, ancient beliefs, what they say is the same as the truth.

Sooner or later, you will understand that those ridiculous nobles will probably be scared to death after experiencing the strength of the enemy first-hand, and give up the reservedness they talk about.

Smart guys don't go head-to-head with enemies they can't beat.

Jiuye actually has no other ideas, because no matter how things change or how the plot is twisted, he has a way to survive as a qualified lord and complete the invasion of the other world.

Of course, aggression is also a gradual thing. The old alchemist will be overthrown by his apprentices who want to find forbidden knowledge, not to mention the young and energetic Jiuye.

Although he has experienced a lot of troubles and crises, when dealing with these old and cunning nobles and businessmen, relying on strength alone is not enough, he is not yet strong enough to fight against the whole world.

"Wait for Jiuye, come over here."

Among the team that was supposed to be heading towards the center of the palace, Kurumi took Jiu Ye's hand and ran towards the other side.

Pinna stopped the knight who wanted to stop the two of them, and followed her.

"You can see it from here."

"I'm very interested in beautiful scenery. On the other hand, I'm not only interested in beautiful scenery..."

The geographical location of the castle is much higher than that of ordinary streets. When Jiuye saw Kuangsan enjoying the scenery below, he expressed his thoughts.

Indeed, as Kuang San said, before noon, the town illuminated by the mild sun seems to be submerged in an ocean of light; it seems that phosphorescent marble is paved with winding paths, in the streets and alleys. The boundary between light and darkness seems to divide the two worlds. Even restless cats are reluctant to touch the ground covered by shadows, but love the warm roof.

Looking to the left, the shirtless craftsman raised his head as if he was complaining about the sky. He was sweating and returned to work when he found the clouds appeared above his head; the soldiers wrapped in heavy armor stood loyally At the checkpoint, the continuous human beings turned into a stream, even so the soldiers remained motionless.

The stone buildings are neatly arranged throughout the imperial capital, and the flowers and plants appearing in the cracks in the corners of some houses emphasize the tenacity of life, but they are quickly pulled out by naughty children.

Even if you don't enter the market, the noise from the wind still tells the prosperity of the city.

An ordinary city... Even so, there are dark stains, plundering desperate nobles, merchants who trample on outsiders' goods, mercenaries who shout to prove that they are right, impetuous breath breaks the calm that should have, it is different from the noise but a Kind of noisy.

Jiu Ye saw this, and he believed that Kurumi saw it too.

No, besides paying attention to the scenery, Jiuye also thought a little out of place that if he was attacked, the enemy should escape from where the ability time had not been resolved.

Where there are many people, they can be used as human shields; where the environment is complex, the terrain can be used to throw off the enemy; basically Jiuye is thinking about these things.

"The former imperial capital was even more lively. In the previous battle at Arnus, too many soldiers were lost."

Ping Na smiled wryly, as if mocking her lack of ability. Is this princess who puts the responsibility on herself gentle?Or is she trying to prove herself?

"It is impossible for the world to change by itself. Unfortunately, time will not turn back and become an established fact. It is very difficult to make a difference."

"But Miss Kuang San's time is not absolute, right?"

"What do you think?"

was asked back.

How should I answer?Jiu Ye threw away the question he was thinking about just now, and put Kuang San's words in his mind for a while to brew.

"The world doesn't need heroes, so let's be the opposite of justice."

It's better to focus that little thought on existing problems than rhetoric.

Jiuye is different from Izayoi who is purely for fun; nor can he surpass the "justice dictates" teacher Saitama.
