My name is Powell.

He is entrusted by the Foundation with the seat of the executives of the highest chamber of commerce in the kingdom, the Melrose Chamber of Commerce.

The task entrusted to me is to enlarge the Chamber of Commerce.

The more money the Chamber of Commerce makes, the bigger the foundation becomes, so this is natural.

of the Foundation - and the goal of the Chamber of Commerce is to make it the 'Kingdom's only' Chamber of Commerce, not the 'Kingdom's best'.

If all the shops are put under the umbrella, I think they will be valued and wholesaled.

You will be able to cow the country itself.

But for that reason, we have to get rid of the big stores that get in the way.

Shorcina Chamber of Commerce.

It's an Elf-run Chamber of Commerce.

Their chamber of commerce has a good reputation, too.

There are also a number of things that are losing in quality.

I don't like it.

Elves, it should be our 'product'.

They don't have a nose, but only their appearance is out.

If you put it up for sale, you'll get a lot of deductions.

(Look! After I crush your shop, they'll still be 'merchandise'!

Especially naming the vice chairman, that little girl!

He has one more missing look in his high elves.

What the hell is the value?

Imagining the future to come, I giggled damned.

But before the glorious future, we must talk about the immediate future.

Especially in the last few years, the Elf Chamber of Commerce has made a remarkable leap forward.

"... is it hard to keep an arrow?"

At the table in the conference room, I shrugged.

It's about crops.

There are two main destinations for crops.

It belongs to noble nobles and to filthy civilians.

Of these, civilian ones don't make much sense to think about.

They're stupid.

Decide to buy more at a price and quantity than at a taste.

If you take the right harvest for a good price, that's fine.

Crops of nobility, on the other hand. This one has to be treated with caution.

We may not only consume it ourselves, but also behave towards other nobles and, in some cases, royalties who have invited us home.

So you have to have something that looks beautiful and tastes good.

However, it is difficult to obtain high quality crops stably.

It's hard to take care of, but to make it better, we have the right fertilizer.

"This is a crop created by lubricating special cultivars and fine fertilizers."

I'll take a look at the taste of the vegetables offered.

Delicious.

Delicious indeed.

It's delicious...

"Still inferior to what both elves sell..."

"Ha. Thoughtless, the elves have a day long in plant development. Besides, we will also use special magic tricks about plants. Use a secret one, even for fertilizer. As things stand, I wonder if it would be difficult for the Chamber of Commerce to surpass"

This is even a crop made of cost exterior view.

It would be impossible to secure enough to sell.

"Especially cereals! The quality of the three grains is hard to come by!

Rice, communes and corn.

These qualities, which make up the major part, differ in particular.

As far as rice goes, even a solid brand called 'Elf Rice' has been built up.

Some aristocrats say, "Only elf rice can be spoken at home".

We're up against price and volume, but that's a civilian's story on the market.

There is a desperate difference between goods intended for aristocracy. It was unforgivable.

"Master Powell. In arrow-stricken crops, it is difficult to take your share from the elves. Even if we continue our research to improve quality, we are foolish that we should focus on our areas of expertise and the development of new markets."

It is a particular opinion.

But that was a problem, too.

"Then ask. Did you get Charles Essen's whereabouts?

"It's..."

My men mumble.

That's right.

Elves are not the only thing that bothers our heads.

Charles Essen, a rapidly rising inventor in recent years.

First, Peeler.

This is extremely highly appreciated.

They say they are now out in houses with dining halls as well as general homes and restaurants.

As an apprentice and an excellent cookware that can easily be used by children in the house to help them, he has a one-jump footlight.

Its convenience did not remain a transient boom, and it was expected that it would probably take root as a classic product.

I mean, you keep generating profits all the time.

The only way to crush both the Elves' chambers of commerce is to cut off financial resources.

However, in crops, which are the main commodities, water was sprayed, and even new financial resources called new commodities appeared.

Besides, there are other inventions of Essential Person.

"The nail clipper and the epidermis are completely settled. In this king's capital, middle-class families who cut their claws with dangerous scissors will soon be completely extinguished."

My men tell me.

How much profit does eating into life generate? It's a jealous story.

But there is only one breakthrough.

That's in that Charles Essen is probably not from the Shorcina Chamber of Commerce.

If you developed your own nail clippers and peelers, you should advertise them that way with dignity.

Yet neither of the elves did.

In other words, the Essential Person just brought in the idea.

Then if we find and enclose Essen, then all the inventions of "From Now on" will turn to our interests.

In order to do this, we have to find out where the Essen are.

But the guard was unusually strong.

The information I grabbed at the end of my distress was the fact that, on the contrary, even middle-class business members did not know who Essen was.

Perhaps the Shorcina Chamber of Commerce intended to completely enclose Essen from the beginning.

So hide its existence thoroughly.

"With regard to clothing suppliers and sewing workshops, the appearance of threading and safety pins seems to vary greatly in share"

Another subordinate tells you carelessly.

Two new Essen products are currently featured in certain industries.

The Elves' workshop says that production is not keeping pace with the orders that arrive.

"With the advent of threading, we have heard that some retired needles have returned to active duty again. They won't be able to let go of the thread threading, so I thought this one would take root as a 'classic'..."

Damn! It's Essen.

If only Essen had it in his hand, Melrose could make the leap!

Both elves must be afraid to catch a single fish to hide Essen.

If we find out where Essen is, we'll have a contract for more than all the elves.

There are few who do not fall into gold.

We said we could surround him with Essen's satisfactory amount.

I hear a lot of inventors have a little weird.

Perhaps Essen and I are one of them.

Neglect the public opinion and don't know what you're worth.

From the beginning, I wish I had brought the invention to us...

Along with the Elf Chamber of Commerce, we must also keep an eye on Essen's trends.

(Speaking of trends as gaze -)

I looked up.

"What has happened to me lately when people at the Shorcina Chamber of Commerce talk about flourishing into and out of fishing grounds everywhere?

"Ha. There's also a report on the matter."

Another man stands up.

"It's the purpose of the Shorcina Chamber of Commerce, but apparently it's in the swamp dojo"

"What? You think it's a swamp dojo?

I accidentally twisted my neck.

Swamp dojo are lower fish that manual workers sometimes eat for nourishment.

But its body smells muddy, its small bones are plentiful, and it cannot be flattered as delicious. I can't even eat raw food because it poisons my blood.

They are miscellaneous fish that are not even eaten by civilians, unless they are also poor people who are too distressed in their lives.

He wants to buy it. So...?

"No, Master Powell. I'm not about to buy it. It seems to hold swamp dojos in general, including fishing rights."

"What!?"

That fish must have little value. I don't even think I would do that with Dada or insanity.

In that case...

"They discovered something new, didn't they? That's not going to be decent food, so I guess it's something else, like being able to convert the poison in your blood into medicine, or being able to turn that into fertilizer material. But no doubt, I grabbed something worthwhile."

My men snorted at my words, too.

"I agree. Shouldn't we keep the swamp dojo just in case?

"But what do you do with the persuasion above? On vague grounds, aren't permits not granted?

Everyone is particularly worried.

But my Kang as a merchant tells me I should move.

"... up there, I'll hang you up. To the best of your ability, hold down the fishing grounds."

I made a decision.

There, one of my men, who had been released to gather information, returned.

Hearing that report, I change my complexion.

"You think it's a tasting party?

"Ha. In the coming December, the Elf's Chamber of Commerce is going to unveil a new menu,"

Disclosure - I mean publicity.

In the case of large stores like ours, we may call leading players and make new products well known.

So if you're confident about the new menu, holding a tasting party is nothing strange in itself.

"Weren't they supposed to move on and not engage with very powerful people?

The Chamber of Commerce of both Elves corresponds unbelievably to ordinary guests, even if they are aristocrats.

I don't do much special treatment.

So when I heard you were going to call the powerful, I was surprised.

If they change direction so that they are actively involved with the nobility, the Chamber will have to rethink the response from the ground up.

"No. That would appear to take the form of the hosting of the Baron's family under the Bailefeld Marquis, which is ostensibly called the Venink family. but the reality of the operation seems to be the Chamber of Commerce of both Elves"

"Venink......? Never heard of a family name, huh? I have been dealing with powerful people for a long time in the Wang capital, but I have never even heard rumors of such nobility."

"Sounds like you're too weak. Do you want to find out?

"Absolutely. Now even anonymous, if a new mine has been discovered, for example, it could happen to rise to the rich. There's got to be some 'value' there, more than working with the elves."

If you can imagine, 'New Menu' and they are just pretexts to call people, maybe they are going to talk about the rights of the new minerals discovered.

"But do you have a house to take, such as an invitation from a weak baron house?

"That would be futile to think about. More than the elves are in motion, we should have the means to call the powerful. Alternatively, it may simply be collected in the name of the Marquis Bailefeld family. Regardless, we must continue to pay attention to the trends of the Shorcina Chamber of Commerce."

I ended up like that.

That's right.

At that time, "Tasting Party" and "Swamp Dojo" were not linked.

No way. That lower fish is going to shake the kingdom, etc.
