Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement Chapter 212

212 . Import 2

That being the case, what I did today was just to break the metalworking artisans’ stubbornness…

“Everyone went home silently because the other party was [Thunder Princess Miko], but as you can see, the result of gathering everyone to announce the arrival of new products is like that, so I think it was rather unpleasant for them…” (Sabine-chan)

Eeeeeeeeeehh!!!

“Wh-what should I do…” (Mitsuha)

And Sabine-chan suggested to me who was shaken .

“How about asking my father to make a decree? About introducing new technology…” (Sabine-chan)

…no, although Sabine-chan generously suggested that, but it’s no good .

“It’s no good! The artisans would hate it the most and put even more resistance if they were to be forced to change the way they work by power from above! If we were to do that, it would have the opposite results!” (Mitsuha)

…yeah, that’s what artisans are like .

My Oniichan said so .

“Even if we continue to lower the prices, everyone will think [At such prices, even if we make it ourselves, we wouldn’t be able to compete in terms of prices] . I don’t think anyone will start manufacturing the imitation products . If we keep selling them at low prices for a while, not just as a promotion, and then we suddenly raise the price, it would be as good as betraying those who have started to use our products, and our credibility would begin to collapse . …it can’t be helped . I guess I should sell these to Bozes County for the time being…” (Mitsuha)

Yes, there is a s.h.i.+pyard in the County of Bozes .

And there are many sailors, who have been naturalized from the Kingdom of Vanel to our country, that are cooperating with the four s.h.i.+pwrights who survived to build s.h.i.+ps there .

They must, of course, be willing to use the tools of their former home country, the Vanel Kingdom . And there’s no way for the young engineers of this country who called them teachers would refuse to use those tools .

Yes, the County of Bozes will be the epicenter and source of technological innovation, not the royal capital!

Various tools were also loaded on the captured boats, but they were for repair purposes only, not for building a new s.h.i.+p . Therefore, the types and number of things that are piled up are limited, and what I have purchased this time should be useful .

…if they’re useless, I have to stomach all the deficit due to the unsold items, it’d be a big loss!!

I can’t bring in a large gantry crane for the berth from the earth, but there is no problem since there are this world’s methods . We can leave that matter to the naturalized guys . Even if they’re not a s.h.i.+pbuilder, they’re probably familiar with s.h.i.+pbuilding . After all, they’re sailors even for an instant…

As expected, the progress of the civilization probably will start from the County of Bozes rather than the royal capital…

Sooner or later, the [royal capital] would be just a name, and the real center of the country would be the County of Bozes .

I won’t even care if, at that time, the artisans of the royal capital were to complain because they felt left behind by the technological progression .

I introduced it to royal capital first . It would be their fault that they refused to accept it, it’s not my fault .

“Th-this is…” (?)

“This is great . These are the same tool that we used in the Kingdom of Vanel! If we can make these tools here, we don’t have to let the disciples do the pain-in-the-a.s.s methods using the old-fas.h.i.+oned tools anymore!” (?)

I brought the tools I had purchased to the County of Bozes and showed them to the former crews of the Vanel Kingdom expeditionary fleet that was naturalized . They were overjoyed, as expected .

However…

“………” (?)

Somehow, one person who is silently investigating every tool that I brought over…

“Say, missy…” (?)

“Hm? What?” (Mitsuha)

“These are the products of the Rosatos Seiki, right? The company name and trademarks are engraved on them . …looking from the serial number, they were recently made…” (?)

Flinch! (SFX)

Well, I guess they can’t be fooled easily .

“Yeah, I went to the Vanel Kingdom in an instant with [Mysterious Power] and bought them with the money of the Vanel Kingdom that everyone had exchanged with the money of this country, what about it?” (Mitsuha)

There are no lies .

I don’t have to tell unnecessary lies . Trust is the most important .

“ “ “ “ “ “………” “ “ “ “ “

And everyone went silent .

Well, of course, they would .

After a long and painful journey, they finally reached a continent far from their home country .

And they will never be able to come back to their homeland where they left their family and friends .

It would be unbearable to hear me saying that with an expression like I just went shopping in the neighboring town .

“ “ “ “ “ “………” “ “ “ “ “

“Ah, err, that…” (Mitsuha)

“ “ “ “ “ “………………” “ “ “ “ “

 “Uh, well, hahaha…” (Mitsuha)

They probably don’t expect me to take them home, but they might want to tell their family and friends that they’re safe .

But to keep the secret, I can’t allow such a thing .

And of course, the former crews knew that much .

“Ah… . Well, that’s that! If you want more, please let me know the quant.i.ty . Also, if you have any other things you want, please tell me the product name . I want to manufacture them here as well, so if it’s something that isn’t in a hurry, please wait for a while and let me ask the manufacturer to cooperate . Well then…” (Mitsuha)

The air got a little heavy, so I said it quickly and withdrew immediately .

No, if I stay there, I felt like I might be asked to do something by the people who couldn’t stand it .

…yes, maybe it can be done, but no matter what they’re going to ask, it would be a request that can never be fulfilled…

After that, I went to Count Bozes’ place and talked about the business .

No, I won’t give the tools or anything for free!

He has to pay for it, and we need to discuss how to make a degraded copy of those in the county of Bozes . And it’s not about monopolizing them here, but about spreading it across the country and the continent…

The sagacious count-sama will surely understand . That now is not the time to be concerned with the profits of his territory or the country…

“I got it . Let’s start selecting a workshop to entrust the work to immediately . ” (Count Bozes)

As expected of Count Bozes, he’s quick on the uptake .

“And what about the matter of spreading the technologies without monopolizing them…” (Mitsuha)

“It’s fine . Or rather, in order to raise the technological level of the country, we shouldn’t think about monopolizing or making money out of them, right?” (Count Bozes)

As expected…

“Besides, there are various other ways to make money, right?” (Count Bozes)

…As expected… d.a.m.n it!

“For the time being, Beatrice is currently preparing the doc.u.ments for the imported goods from my home country . Please prepare a caravan to transport the goods to the royal capital” (Mitsuha)

Yeah, the caravan will depart from the County of Bozes to the Yamano Viscounty to load the goods there and then head for the royal capital .

At that time, they will also be carrying goods from the Bozes County to the Yamano Viscounty . And they will be carrying not only the imported goods but also the agricultural products and processed seafood from the Yamano Viscounty to the royal capital .

In the caravan, that has both the flag of Yamano Viscounty and the flag of Bozes County…

The cost of escorting will be low because the chance that bandits will attack the horse-drawn carriages related to [Himemiko-sama’s territory] is close to none .

No, of course, that doesn’t mean there will be no escorts at all . But if the danger is low, then naturally, the cost will also be low . It’s the same as the insurance is cheap if the risk is small .

“Also, I am thinking of making the Port of Bozes as a tourist destination . There should be many people who want to see the wars.h.i.+ps, so I think it might be good if we open some kind of tour around the wars.h.i.+ps and s.h.i.+pyards . We can also make the former crew members hold some kind of lectures about the story of the tough voyage in the ocean . Moreover, we can sell souvenirs a.s.sociated with the wars.h.i.+ps, and as specialties, seafood dishes, seafood okonomiyaki, takoyaki, grilled squid, seaweed dishes, and many more…” (Mitsuha)

“Mitsuha, let me hear more about that topic!” (Iris-sama)

Oooh, iris-sama took a big bite, faster than Count-sama…

Iris-sama, I will not run away, so please remove the finger that digs into my shoulder .

Ow, it hurts… your nails are digging in!!!
