The office of the 3rd Prince's family.
"... hey, Leila."
Yes, Alma-san, what are you doing?
"Today... you won't be able to come back, Erica-san."
"The opponent is Takeo-san, right?"
... are you going to do the contents of that health care? "
"If it's your first time, will you do it?"
Isn't it tough? "
"Well... but Mr. Konoha wrote it and Mr. Takeo put it into practice."
Takeo-san, don't you think I'll do it? "
... wasn't that a countermeasure against manipulation?
"Well, we are."
Alice saw it from the beginning. "
"That's right."
... that's it from the beginning...
Alma leans her arms together.
“How amazing is this experience?”
... Leila... would you like to sneak a tour?
"That's... good."
Alma and Layla start to say that they have blown up.
"No, I can't!"
It's bad for Erica and Takeo!
You can't go! "
William stops his wives' rampage.
"I'm just kidding ~"
"That's right, William, we're not going to go see Erica's insanity."
The two of them laughed at William.
"... let's sleep 3 people today."
William says.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Did William get hit too?"
“I think we need to keep an eye on each other.”
"Ah, that's right.
There is a possibility that William will go peeking. ”
"... I don't think I'm going."
Smith is in the same place. ”
William says in amazement.
"Oh, that's right.
I was always thinking about Erica, but it was Smith's first experience.
I'm curious about you, too. "
Leila says.
"I wonder what kind of woman will be dealing with it?"
After all, amy-like child? "
Alma says.
"Hah... you can experience it safely."
I'm going to sleep with my hands together today. ”
William was right.

King Azpar's office.
King Azpar is looking at the papers.
Then, the door was knocked on, and when King Azpar granted permission, Olcott came in.
“Excuse me.
Your Majesty, I have the minutes of yesterday's meeting. "
... yeah, I see.
Leave it there. ”
King Azpar keeps an eye on the paperwork.
"Yes... did something happen?"
Olcott asks me after he leaves the paperwork.
"Hmm?
No, I'm looking at the mid-term forecast reports from the Bureau of Economics and the Bureau of Construction. ”
"... It is true that the Economic Affairs Bureau is expecting a change in the domestic economic balance due to the formation of His Highness William and the entry of His Highness Cliff into the Royal Castle, and the Construction Bureau was expecting a redevelopment of the Royal Capital."
"Yeah, that's right.
Yes, but... the Construction Bureau thinks that the capital will eventually develop accordingly...
The Bureau of Construction wrote that it was concerned about the increase in the price of materials due to the increase in the number of shops due to the redevelopment of accommodation and commercial districts, and that the Economic Bureau wrote that the development of the provincial territory was remarkable, and the size of the capital city remained the same, and the tax revenue would increase over logistics because of the increase in logistics.
What about this one? "
"With more logistics, we expect that the number of lodgings where the merchants will stay will increase, and the inflow of goods will increase, so we expect the size of the shopping stores to increase."
"The inn is still understandable by that explanation.
But is it enough to carry out a rebuilding that would make the store bigger?
Indeed, Takeo makes good use of the Elvis Count's workshop to make new products, and William thinks of interesting things in the wholesale market.
But will it develop to a place where shops can be rebuilt in the capital of the kingdom... "
King Azpar tilts his head.
"Hmm... if you think things will gather in the King's City... I suppose so."
But, Lord William, if you're thinking of implementing a way to collect and sell goods intended for the nobility of the Demon Kingdom at once... the Construction Bureau might be a little off-guessed. ”
Olcott said while thinking about it.
"I think I may have missed something."
In the first place, increasing the number of shops means that there will be more shoppers, or more purchasing power than now... more money in hand... the salaries of civil servants and military officers have not changed, right? "
"There is an increase in promotions, etc., but the outline wage standard is determined to remain unchanged.
As a result, the number of people purchasing will increase, so... there is the creation of the 3rd Legion.
Isn't that why you're expecting an increase in your family's share? ”
"Ah, I forgot... the number of family members increased from 1,000 to 1,500..."
Certainly, the store could be a little narrow.
Are you sure about the neighborhood? "
“We've heard that it's been put together by the Human Resources and Construction Departments.”
"Hmm... it doesn't seem to be a mistake."
... the price of the material... "
"The price of materials and grains is expected to rise over the next few years."
What do you think of that? ”
"I don't know... I can't publicize the war, so criticism seems to increase."
I have to put up with it everywhere... but I want to make sure that grain alone is not too expensive. "
"Do you want to promote increased production in each territory?"
I think that alone will help alleviate that dissatisfaction. ”
"... even though we are still asking each lord to increase grain production, we are not issuing subsidies, so it is ineffective... I don't have any budget this year, and the cost for the war will be covered in the future...
I guess it would be better if it wasn't.
... Olcott, let's ask all the lords to increase grain production. "
"Yes, I will write to all lords to move toward increased production and inform them with His Majesty's signature."
Olcott nodded.
