And, about the business, like, I want to sell magic tools in Shiga Kingdom see, would you give me the right to do commerce please?"
"Fumu, very well, I will prepare it."
An immediate permission. As expected of monarchy. It's nice for this kind of thing to be done fast.
"The commercial right is not a problem. Nanashi-dono, what kind of items are you intending to sell?"
"Un, I'm thinking, like, magic equipments and tools, and also things related to medicines. I've prepared airships as the featured product."
"Airships?!"
Asked by the prime minister-san, I roughly outlined the goods' genre but the king exclaimed at the word [Airship].
"Un, I was thinking of selling large transport ships, and smaller carriage-sized ships for private use. The one besides the transport ship has to use the aerodynamic engine though, so it'll start selling a bit later see."
The transport ship has the same performance as the airship that I've caught a sight of in the duchy capital. The cruising speed and maximum altitude are about the same, and it's 40% larger. I've designed it to have big load capacity.
I want to make the private airships popular among the nobles in order for it not to be unusual when I have one myself during our travel between cities.
"Private use?! Using the precious aerodynamic engines for private use pleasantry is it?"
What an exaggeration.
"It'll be convenient for viceroys if they can freely come and go to the royal capital right?"
"It is true that it's convenient, but do you have such abundant amount of aerodynamic engines?"
"Un, relatively see."
Back then with Lulu, we got a lot of it when we were over fishing tunas and narwhals. At that time, shark-shaped monsters were coming to attack the tunas from the sky. I quickly disposed of them, but their identity turned out to be the famous monstrous fish of which the aerodynamic engine are taken from.
I got a bit too much of the aerodynamic engine's parts since I had obliterated every bad monsters who were coming for the tunas around the vicinity of the ocean area. The tunas and the narwhals had parts that could be used for aerodynamic engine too but they could not output as much power as the shark's parts. Moreover, since it seems that only the shark type ones attacks the towns around the coast, only materials from this type are known to people.
"How many can you concretely prepare."
"Five large transport ships, and 20 small private ships, I think."
The prime minister inquired with slightly flustered tone due to my vague answer, so I revealed them the concrete number.
By the way, the large ship has 30 times the output power of the small ship.
Rather than that, the problem is whether they give the permissions or not, the king and minister-san look pensive.
Doing illicit trade is bad, right.
"Nanashi, due to the national defense concern, freely selling airships will be troubling."
"I intend to only sell it to Shiga Kingdom Nobles at present, no good?"
I asked in disgustingly cute way.
Ah, my life is decreasing...
"U, umu, then---"
"Please give the royal family the preferential right."
The prime minister-san set a condition as if covering the king's words who was seemingly going to give his permission. Interrupting the king sounds like a lese majeste.
"When you're selling airships, please negotiate with the royal family or the royal army first."
"Okkey."
"Okkey? I don't know that word, what does that mean?"
"Ah, sorry sorry. It's, like, affirmative."
After such exchanges, I was able to get the commercial right to sell magic tools in the kingdom.
I gave one among the five large transport ships as a sample, and was granted the commercial right and a medallion due to that achievement. This medallion that minister-san has arranged is the proof of the royal purveyor merchant, it allows me to have business transactions with nobles in equal standing.
The price of the large transport ships couldn't be set without looking at the real things, so it was for another day. For now, I'm told that I should present the ships to the airport that's used for presentation on the edge of the royal capital three days later.
As for other samples, I also give some magic sword, magic spear, and several kinds of magic medicines. As for the magic weapons, it's established that a magic sword is worth 150 gold coins, and a magic spear is 200 gold coins with excessive profit, but I sell my magic sword for 100 gold coins and magic spear for 200 gold coins.
These magic weapons aren't like the one from the duchy capital that use only bronze, they have mithril and brass alloy membrane covering the bronze base to make them look good. Their power as weapons are about the same since they're both casted magic swords, but thanks to the membrane, it won't become rusty or decayed, it's easy to maintain.
The medicines line-up are the same as from the duchy capital, in addition I've added nutrient and nourishment tonics. I present large quantity of nourishment tonics to the king and the prime minister-san under the pretext of being samples.
Please fight for 24 hours.
Ah, that means you can sleep for four hours huh. How enviable.
The payment will be in three days later since the goods will be delivered with the airships delivery.
Obtaining the commercial right this time is for the sake of the auction later.
Even though my power of money is unparalleled, I'm thinking of reducing the assets of people who are likely to become my rivals.
Now then, the preparation for the auction is going well.
As an extra, I gave Sir Sokel to prime minister-san when I was visiting the royal capital for the goods delivery. The man should be able to make good use of Sir Sokel's testimony.
The fact that the real identity of the guy called His Majesty is still a mystery makes me feel uneasy, but I'm expecting the kingdom's authorities and spies to uncover it.
