Chapter 401: The Left Out Trading Nation
Our journey from the Former Divine Empire of Sydnia to Samandour Kingdom was more eventful than we had expected.
We rescued the village that from the drove of orcs attacking it, defeated the orc colony nearby, then we offered the meat and materials to the damaged village.ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels
After that, our familiars actively exercised by hunting monsters in our surroundings to relieve stress, selling materials to towns that have Adventurers Guilds, and offering meat to villages that don’t have much surplus of food as we leisurely made our way to Samandour Kingdom
Well, it’s for our self-satisfaction and a slight pang of guilt. We were the ones who dealt the final blow to collapse the Divine Empire of Sydnia, after all.
With this and that happening, we crossed the border between the former Sydnia and Samandour Kingdom.
Samandour Kingdom trades with every other country, that’s why there was no troublesome check when we crossed from the Sydnian border. They just did a simple identification check and we were able to enter the country.
We headed for the port city at Samandour Kingdom.
◇
Samandour Kingdom is a trading nation Possessing the only port in this continent, they also sail to the Demon Continent to trade there. Triaria Kingdom was actively trying to expand in the continent and they went to war with Yggurle Kingdom, Valkyra Kingdom, and Lomaria Kingdom, yet Samandour Kingdom traded equally to both sides.
Not too long ago, Triaria Kingdom, which received financial support and human resources from the Divine Empire of Sydnia which was located, went to war with Yggurle Kingdom and Valkyra Kingdom. Samandour Kingdom made enormous profits from selling supplies to both factions.
「The new magic devices, highly effective potions, the carriages that do not shake much, the leak of funds from our country these several years isn’t stopping. It’s a constantly growing deficit.」
These several years, a trading company of Valkyra Kingdom began marketing Toilet MDs. At first, Goul didn’t even consider selling the toilets. That high nobles would not buy it. Why was that. Even in Samandour Kingdom, there were noble companies that jumped in on such products. Now those companies were the only winners in the sinking Samandour Kingdom.
「It hurt that we couldn’t be involved with the Sanctuary.」
「If Triaria had been able to capture the Sanctuary......」
The Sanctuary’s products, alcohol and herbs, were traded with the Trination in small quantities, but that benefit did not extend to the companies in Samandour Kingdom.
Naturally. Valkyra Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom were not fools. It was impossible for them to not realize that Samandour Kingdom was behind Sydnia and Triaria.
Of course, there would be no way they would take on the revival of the former Sydnia, and as a result, Valkyra Kingdom, which was experiencing an unprecedented economic boom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom were reaping the benefits. Gnomstoll Kingdom which had sold massive volumes of armaments. And then Samandour Kingdom made a mistake with their misguided scheming values.
This was not just the case for the Vautarc Earldom, but to all the nobles in Samandour Kingdom who profited were unable to gain the rights to trade. They looked down on Valkyra Kingdom and Lomaria Kingdom. Regarding Yggurle Kingdom, they consider it as the breeding ground for high class slaves.
The nobles who managed the companies of Samandour Kingdom were now desperate to gather information from other countries.
Just so they wouldn’t be disadvantaged somehow......
