Chapter 75. Necessary for war (3) Since none other than I have revealed that I want to trade 50,000 slaves at a time.
Even if I don't explicitly teach it, it's like providing information that war is already certain.
It's hard to hide this as long as you're making a deal.
Still, if you don't do useless cubing, I'll go beyond taking care of yourself.
Because I am of the same race.
If I were in the same position, I would have weighed the benefits first.
He must be trying to hit the nobles who trade after me by calling the slave price higher than the market price.
“I just want you to stop talking nonsense?”
“of course. The mouth is the source of business.”
Returning to his original merchant's smile, he now took out the documents for a full-fledged transaction.
“Isn’t the mouth the source of ruin?”
“It's up to you to write.”
Ian accepted my joke in moderation, and we laughed at each other, rejoicing in the deal.
“By the way, can we send the slaves to the territory as before?”
After the deal, Ian asked me questions about the slave acquisition process.
Until now, his superiors had personally led the slaves and brought them to the estate.
And when I arrived, it was a procedure that I took over myself.
“Umm… how long do you think it will take to gather 50,000 people?”
“I think it will take about five days.”
uh? Are you faster than you think? this child.
He pretends to be embarrassed by the words, but he seems to have half-expected that I would call that much.
“I would like you to accept it as a sign that you have gradually become accustomed to it.”
He laughed so smirkingly.
“I mean five days.”
“yes. It is so.”
“Then I'll take you there myself.”
“Are you okay?”
“Five days go by quickly.”
If it doesn't take long, it's been a long time since I've been waiting while playing leisurely in the royal capital.
Anyway... When I go back, work due to war preparations is waiting for me.
i don't want to go back home
I'm going to make excuses and play!
? ? ?
When the transaction was over, I called my older sister who was waiting quietly.
Kania's older sister had been waiting the whole time as if she was bored, as if she hadn't much interest in the slave market.
I simply told her the result.
“Then are you going back to the manor?”
“no. I have to play for five days.”
For as little as five days, there was a justification for skipping the royal capital.
If I go back anyway, I have no choice but to do some work.
then?
I can't go back!
Do you shoot your stomach without playing?
“sister! Let’s go play for five days!”
When I insisted without hesitation, my older sister put on a puzzled expression.
“But everyone is busy? Is that okay?”
ah. I don't know if this older sister is going to be bored.
Originally, the busier you are, the more you secretly make excuses and indulge in moderation, so the taste of sucking honey comes back to life.
However, even though Kania noona looks like this, she is basically sincere, so of course there is no way she easily agrees with my argument.
“sister.”
“huh?”
“Isn’t there any interest in watching the royal road?”
“Uh..”
..?
I clearly saw my sister's face tremble with momentary hesitation.
Until now, we have never had a proper city tour since we were born.
“The city...
Actually, my sister has no experience going outside more than me.
Originally born as a princess, it was not easy to go out because of the black magician's attack in the past.
Of course, my sister would also be interested in the outside world.
Today, when I went to the royal capital together like this, he showed me that he was looking forward to it in his heart.
I also saw him strangely excited while looking at the city scenery from inside the carriage.
No matter how much I try to hide it, I can't hide it from my brother.
“If there is a war in the future, I don’t know when I will be able to play after that. So, you have to play while you can.”
A true honey-sucking pro doesn't cover any time and place.
that's my theory
You have to play even when you can't play to be a true professional, but I won't bother talking about that.
Despite my persuasion, my sister did not come over easily.
In the first place, the reason my sister came along as my escort today is because everyone else is busy.
“But… everyone is busy…
” “It’s okay. I also gave instructions for most of the important things, so there is no problem, and then.”
“and?”
“Your sister doesn’t have anything to go back to either.”
bring the facts here
It is a truth that can never be ignored.
Admit it, we are redundant.
Rather than going back and interfering, it is said that it is helpful for them to indulge in moderation and get along with each other.
It's a sad reality that I can't bear to deny.
* * *
As if my persuasion paid off, my sister eventually agreed to stay in the capital for five days.
In fact, when I was leaving, the Yeongji side told me that I would be a little late because of the procedure for purchasing slave soldiers, so it doesn't matter if I stay for about 5 days.
From the beginning, I meant to play.
‘Then what should I do...
Come to think of it, this is the first time I've ever gone out normally.
Basically, if it wasn't for work, I wouldn't go out.
If I needed something from time to time, I basically ordered my subordinates to get it, and since I am an Indian, I didn't have much attachment to the outside world.
However, to the ignorant princess, the scenery of the city is strange.
It's funny again.
The place where we lived was the royal castle within the royal capital, but the city is really strange.
My sister looked around.
“I thought about it from the beginning, but the villages in our territory must have been very small.”
“Because it’s rural.”
You have to compare what to compare.
Originally, Fahilia is a simple place where only about 800 people live in each village.
The most rural of the countryside!
Before the road construction, it was such an enormous countryside that even a dubious rumor that even one carriage a day would be auspicious would be heard.
And I am a country lord!
I am a real country boy.
Afterwards, the village will gradually develop and there may be plausible attractions someday, but it is still the time for buds to sprout.
Someday, I want to go beyond a village and develop it into a decent city.
And I want to have everything there and suck honey.
that's my humble dream
Do not think that you will always be satisfied with country life.
Burning a strange competitive spirit, I made a promise.
“For now, let’s look around in moderation.”
We started walking first.
Does everything seem strange to the princess who first appeared on the street?
Kanianuna, who looked around curiously, guided me carefully from the side so that I wouldn't bump into a strange place.
I'm not worried about my sister, I'm worried about the building here.
If you break it, I have to pay for it.
“This way.”
I have already memorized the approximate route, so I don't have to worry about getting lost.
I memorized all of the tourism issued in the royal capital.
when?
I saw it when I came here.
you said
I thought it was going to be fun from the start.
“Arel? Is it okay for us to go like this?”
“are you okay? How many people in the world know our faces anyway?”
In the first place, my purpose was to just come out to play with my sister, so there is no way they will ever get caught.
Rather, it's annoying if they get caught, so it's more comfortable to just pretend to be siblings on a trip.
In fact, no one recognized our faces.
Unless the guys who work in the castle have never seen me up close, it's even harder to recognize.
The position of the 2nd princess and 3rd prince is really ambiguous.
Opportunities to show off to the public are rare, and there is no reason for the public to remember us.
Few people would be interested in us.
Now, if we don't have accidents and just walk around normally, won't others see us as normal siblings?
‘They're normal siblings....
I fiddled with my bangs and moved my pupils to look at my sister's hair.
‘Did it look like that in the first place?'
The hair color is different, the face is completely different.
My older sister has shiny aqua-colored hair with a refreshing feel.
I have gray hair.
I know very well that my older sister, who is healthy and full of energy, and I, who look languid on the outside, have completely different atmospheres.
‘Does it really matter?'
Let's stop thinking about troublesome things and let's play until noona is properly satisfied today.
* * *
But there is one problem.
Come to think of it, what do normal siblings do on a regular basis?
The title is inspection, but I think of it as playing in reality.
So what should I do?
What do you usually do with your sister?
In my first life, I was an only child.
.... maybe.
The ambiguous expression is because I keep repeating my previous life, so I can't remember things that old.
From then until now, of course, there were blood relatives in a relationship that could be called brother and sister in previous lives, but most of them were not very close.
The relationship that was at least okay was to the extent that we didn't even talk to each other until we died of old age?
All of my previous lives so far have been like this, so no matter how much I was a pro in my previous life, I can't figure out what to do with this.
Even I, who worry about this, don't really have an answer.
When I was in my previous life, I was only obsessed with strange things, but I had no tips for the really important things.
So this time, I want to enjoy everything I enjoy and live comfortably.
As I was thinking about where to look first, Kania noona said she wanted to look around the store first.
Perhaps because it is a city, it is incomparable to the shops in the village.
It is a structure in which several small merchants are located inside the site of a well-established large headquarters.
Not only the residents who live here, but also the peddlers are quite crowded.
Ugh... it looks like a lot of people.
“I want to see what you sell.”
“There won’t be much to see.”
Maybe it's a rare thing, but that kind of stuff comes into my ears first these days, so maybe today won't be any different.
I don't know if it's fun just to look at it.
I obediently followed behind my sister.
We looked at each item one after another as if we were taking a walk.
I have no intention of buying anything anyway.
It's not that I don't have money, it's that I don't have anything I want.
Even if we look like this, we are the best gold spoons in the kingdom.
Even if I put my breath into the store that is governed by my mother's hometown, Ainrest Street, I can get almost anything.
So, is there anything you want?
“ah. I've seen that. Did Arel make it?”
“I see.”
Some of the shelves seemed to specialize in products developed by me.
Without much thought, as my sister led me, I frowned.
Isn't there a signboard that reads [Product developed by the third prince, the young sage of gray color] on the shelf.
As the 3 princes you see in person, you can't help but get hot.
Who's in charge here?
Oh well, it's our superiors.
“...why do I always have to go through the shame?”
“huh? What are you talking about?”
“It’s nothing.”
However, if I say anything here, it will be obvious that I came here, so I have no choice but to endure it.
I don't think I'll be able to see you anymore because I'm embarrassed.
