Chapter 340. A true water trader (2) The time had come and a report came in that all the envoys had gathered at the same time.

It's not manners to make you wait too long.

I quickly got up from my seat.

Now is the time to go out and make money.

“Then where should I start my business?”

The best business in the world!

A business that has gone as far as it goes!

I'm going to try water business right away.

When I entered the room that was arranged as a meeting room, the envoys and lords who had already been dispatched from various countries gathered their eyes on me with a tense expression on their faces.

There are faces that I have seen once, and there are faces that I have never seen before.

The face I saw before... Is that the face I saw at the artificial holy water briefing session?

ah! Come to think of it, did you try to sell holy water with this feeling?

It reminded me of what happened a few years ago and I feel a little nostalgic.

Maybe they feel the same way.

However, my longing and their longing may not have the same meaning, but huhuhuhu.

“First of all, thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting my invitation.”

When I deliberately made a rhyme first with a remark to congratulate them for their hard work, everyone bowed their heads as if they were happy.

Today is sales mode, so I will speak as politely as possible.

“no. We were also interested in the device Arrel Ernesia-sama had developed. No matter how much I was looking forward to it, it didn’t feel like a long distance.”

It was not easy for them to answer either.

How can nobles be so good at lying without changing their complexion?

“this? You are good at flattering.”

“I am serious.”

I'm not aware that the Shinigami who said that was also dozing off in the carriage when passing through the gateway to Pahilia, probably tired from the long journey.

I am not interested in word of mouth. All I care about is the result.

“Let’s start with the main point. I’ve already revealed to some extent what I want to show you, so you won’t know.”

“I heard that it is a device that purifies a large amount of water.”

someone nodded.

yes i remember it well

Later, stamp ‘You did a good job' on your forehead! and take a picture

“Exactly. Many of the people gathered here are likely to have come as nobles sent from each kingdom, or as lords who have lands directly.”

I smiled as I met their eyes one by one.

“Don’t you want to give clean water to the villagers?”

The time has come for a real water trade.

.. Now that I'm trying to do water business, I almost laughed without realizing it. First of all, what I'm trying to sell is not the water itself, but just a device that makes it possible to get clean water.

In that respect, there is still a conscience.

Really, if I had no conscience, I would have just left it open and sold it.

“Among them, I know that some of them have their own estates.

If so, have you ever thought about the issue of drinking water to feed the villagers?”

When I asked, looking at each of their eyes, they looked down for a moment as if they were seriously contemplating.

Some will think about the intention behind my remarks, and some will think of a means to somehow pass this situation smoothly.

“...Is that why you made a device to purify water?”

one of them asks cautiously.

I smiled and answered the question.

“The reason for wanting to make a device is not a big deal. In fact, it was thanks to the petitions of several people who forwarded it to my company.”

“Pleaning?... There

was a vaguely murmuring voice, and on the other hand, there was a sigh as if he was holding his breath.

Some guys don't know what I'm talking about.

And there are guys who have a good idea of what it is.

“What do you mean by petition?”

A guy who doesn't know anything asks.

It was probably a local aristocrat who had nothing to do with this incident.

If you don't know, kindly teach me.

I wouldn't do that to Dia either.

Instead, the shoulders are sometimes asked to be rubbed with magic.

“How good would it be if we could divert the work away from the wizards to purify the water?”

“???? indeed.”

“That is correct.”

They too groaned as if they could imagine that.

“Actually, the fahilia I manage is increasing efficiency that way.”

“...In that case.”

Above all, there is no way that I will not be interested in the fact that I have grown the city in this way.

“Anyway, the reason is this. That's a long introduction, and then I'll show you the actual device.”

After saying that, I waved my hand, and the servants who had been waiting in advance loaded the water purifier onto the cart and brought it here.

“The name is called ‘Spirit Water Purifier'. I call it a purifier for short.”

“government ordinance?”

“Because I used some of the techniques based on spiritism.”

“Oh, it’s a spirit.”

They seemed to understand that they were not particularly interested in it.

What they want to see is whether the purifier can replace the mage's magic.

Don't worry.

make sure to show

“First, let me show you the performance.

Oh, one thing before that. Could you please cover your nose first?”

“ancient'? Ugh?! This smell!!”

“That’s nasty!!”

They were puzzled by my sudden warning, but soon understood the meaning and had no choice but to cover their noses and frown.

A servant wearing a mask that covered his nose brought water that was completely contaminated with green light.

In the completely polluted water, the stench vibrates enough to remind me of when I encountered a group of undead in the past.

I'm not doing anything to save face, but to be honest, I feel like throwing up.

Ugh! ai support.

That's a detrimental endorsement.

“Is

that it?”

“Oh, it's nothing. This is intentionally contaminated water. It is used for the purification test. See you. dirty? Isn't it dirty?”

When I took the water bottle and pushed it out, everyone pulled back.

Excuse me, yum.

I also put up with the smell, but

“That... I see. It really isn't normal.”

I managed to look around, as if I couldn't bear to say dirty in my face.

“But what are you going to do with it?”

“I brought it to show the performance of the purifier. It must have come like this, but it won’t reach you if you explain it only with words.”

“I see... you’re showing it yourself. But isn’t the degree of contamination too severe?”

“Shouldn’t this be enough to guarantee that there is a definite effect?”

With a grin, I nodded and gave instructions to the servant holding the contaminated water.

The servant quietly started pouring the contaminated water into the purifier as instructed, without even changing his complexion.

Since mana had already been activated in the purifier a little while ago, if you pour it in like this, the water will be automatically purified and filtered.

“ruler! Look at this clear water.”

As I clapped and gathered attention, everyone who saw the purifier opened their eyes wide.

Soon after, the stench disappeared.

And under the purifier... Transparent water came pouring out through the pipe where the water was discharged.

“how is it? Isn't it clean?”

purple. This is H2O!

Yes! It's just water!

Ohhhhhh...

A faint exclamation flowed between them.
