The next day, for building the new system of bringing more villagers, Georg and Ferris were send off by the villagers at the city gates.
「Now, see you later. While we are absent, protect this place well.」
「Yes, even if it costs my life.」
「That’s alright. Well, we are only going out for three days. I believe that nothing will happen.」
「Ha ha, leave it to me.」
Georg thought that the way Nina and Cale were saluting formally with their serious character, while not sparing any efforts, is desirable.
「So, everyone, We’ll see you in three days, if nothing happens, Ferris.」
「Yes.」
After saying so, they took off with the help of wind magic, while being seen off by 68 inhabitants and are now on their way to the city.
「They’re gone……」
「Looks like it…… Well, go back to work!!」
「It’s only three days and we can’t make anything great, but make sure, that you don’t disappoint Georg-sama.」
「Ah, we can’t leave everything to Georg-sama forever.」
「Yes, our great savior is Dragunir-sama and even if he can solve a lot of things, but it is expected that such work is left for us.」
「Only by being loyal, not betraying him and doing our public duty, can we hope to repay him.」
「We all, for this great gentleman……」
After the two left, and as if representing the feelings of the people left behind, Nina and Cale said this. The other residents who heard this at the back also nodded their heads significantly. For them, even if they became Georg friends, he will continue to be a sacred and an invincible being. Surely, someday Georg’s wish will be fulfilled, but when the country rises, as long as its story lives on, Georg will talk about it. Like an ancestor, or mainly like a parent……
「I can see it.」
「Yes, I recognize this town.」
While chatting without worry, they arrived at the town they previously visited.
「It doesn’t look different from the last time.」
「I think it’s only our town that changes too much too fast.」
They landed on the ground, while having this silly conversation and walked towards the castle gate. The face of the guard became blue as soon as he saw Georg and Ferris (because Georg’s appearance looked the same as last time, it was noticed immediately).
「Th…… This, this. Please do enter as you wis.h.!.+」
「Hmm, thank you for your trouble.」
They already got a face pa.s.s. Even though they only visited once.
Because it didn’t cause much trouble, Georg didn’t mind it and they entered the town without saying anything further and were now going to the Goldberg Company.
As they arrived at the Chamber of Commerce, he noticed the shop a.s.sistant who was sweeping outside, and was now walking inside in a hurry after bowing to them. They were guided to the same room as the last time and as soon as they entered they found that Ed was already waiting for them.
「Welcome!!Well, please take a seat.」
「Hmm, then excuse me.」
「If you excuse me.」
Ed welcomed the two with a big smile. When they first met he had a pale face, but now he looks very healthy.
「Well, Ed, I think you know the purpose of our visit?」
「Of course!!Additional demi-humans? 」
「That’s the main reason. So, how much have you collected?」
「I think…… because a certain someone spread a rumor, when I checked yesterday there are no less than 400 at this place.」
As he heard these words, Georg was surprised. He estimated not more than 300 and the estimation was stretched as much as possible and now there are much more than he thought.
<This…… Was I too optimistic? However, I can’t alter my policy of picking up everyone. It’s a rather nice miscalculation. There should be enough houses, but is there enough food? …… As soon as I return to the town, I need to plan to increase the food production. If I need food for 500 people, should I promote hunting? As for fis.h.i.+ng, do I develop it to full-scale soon?>
「Ah…… Ahem, Georg-sama? 」
「Hmm? Oh, I’m sorry. You gathered more than expected. It looks like my business can start slightly earlier.」
「Ah, is it? Are you saying that there are not enough?……」
「Not at all. Aside from the demi-humans I have some additional things to order….. Can I confirm the a.s.sets first? 」
As he said this, Ed had a s.h.i.+ning expression on his face.
「In fact, there was a person who bought the clothes you brought, for twice the a.s.sumed price. Therefore the a.s.sets greatly exceed the numbers on the doc.u.ment I handed you before. 」
「…… What? 」
「Please think that he a.s.sets you saw last time are approximately doubled. I had estimated that it will be sold at a high price, but it was sold for twice as much. A certain gentleman, who is connected to the royal family, bought it. Thanks to you, our commercial firm was able to make connections with the royal family and made a lot of income. Now you can hear a few opinions that the scale of our firm is big enough to try a little expansion. And this is all thanks to you and for that every member of our firm is taking their hats of to you. 」
Ed really lowers his head as was talking quickly, however, there were some words Georg couldn’t ignore.
「The person was connected to the royal family?……What the h.e.l.l?」
So, if it’s the royal family of the humans, it is logical that they can spend a lot of money. However, that’s not the problem. The existence of Georg is transmitted to the royal family. It can become an annoying thing in the future.
「The northern kingdom, in other words this whole area including this town Nidea, rules many areas. The marquis who governs this area is called Einhart von Friedrich Grothend.i.c.k. 」
「…… long. Why does it sound like someone speaking gibberish? 」
「D…… Don’t say something like that!!However, I got things cheaper than the market price, because of some old connections I had. 」
「If that’s the case it’s good. But since Ed is also a merchant, the strength to express yourself is a good thing for you. 」
「We…… Well…… Ha, ha. 」
Ed put a dry smile on, as he was glanced at by Georg. It’s hard to imagine the things he had to experience, after the intense crossfire questioning about the marquis with the help of liquor.
「Let’s return to the main subject. In other words, even if I buy the 400 demi-humans at ten times the market price, there is still room for more? 」
「If you bought 700 people at this price, the end of the deposit comes into view……」
「There isn’t much left……… Well, that’s good. Then as an additional order, the same clothes for the demi-humans as last time, as well as food and blankets. And this time about 50 chickens, wheat seedlings or rice seedlings…… Well, it should be enough to be planted in 500m².Separately from this, about 300kg wheat flour, too. After that, for the human clothes, I need a compilation on how to make easy clothes, approximately 50 sewing kits, basic materials. That’s all for this issue. As for planting materials, I need seedlings or seeds of the raw material. I want to order about 10 horses. The ratio of females and male should be…… a percentage suitable for breeding. 」
Ed was writing a memo as he conveyed everything he desired and was nodding and ‘uh-huh’-ing while doing it.
「I’ll spend most of the a.s.sets for all these things……」
「I don’t care. Perhaps, I won’t come here in the next 2 years or more. 」
For the now 500 residents I plan to raise the literacy rate as well as the skills in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division operation to 100%, to increase our human resources, to expand the scale of the industry and add new industries while developing the cultural level to a certain extend. The challenges of this town are piling up. This time it won’t be just a few months or a year.
「T…… two years……? 」
「Well, in short. So, I want to use all the a.s.sets at once. I give 30% of the remaining a.s.sets to your company and for the 70% left, please increase the size of the orders in the sequence I ordered them and use it up. 」
「Th…… that is……」
「Oh, I won’t cut our relations.h.i.+p. When I arrive at this human dwelling the next time, then first…… was it called Nidea? I’ll come and visit you. At that time, I hope we can have another deal. 」
As Ed heard the words of Georg, he breathed a sigh of relief. The dragunir Georg was a G.o.d of good luck for Ed, for the huge profit he brought with him. He wanted to avoid breaking off the relations.h.i.+p.
「Then, I ask. In three days, at the same place like last time? 」
「Yes, certainly. Only the numbers are different this time. I can’t guarantee that it is enough, though. Therefore, please visit me at the evening in two days. At that time, I can report our progress. 」
「I understand. Then let’s leave it at that today. Ed, the help I receive from you is greater than you might think. If something is happening, and I’m able to do something, I won’t hesitate to help. 」
「Is…… Is that so……」
The help of a dragunir is useless in most cases and there are only small occasions where they can help a little. Because Ed understood this, his words are unaffected by it.
「What? With your abilities there won’t be such a situation, but I won’t mind if you think about it as a last resort. See you in two days. 」
Said Georg and departs. Ferris followed him, while Ed had a stupefied look on his face as he saw them off. The statement of Georg was like a huge bomb for him.
As Ed fully understood the meaning, a scream was heard across the Goldberg Company……
