I was waiting for an attack from the puppeteer, but before that, one agenda item came up at the representative’s meeting
Onyxim Arensky, the Dwarf representative.
He made a request.
“I want vodka, the alcohol here is like water. Give me permission to make it and proceed with the importation.”
Ludvig nodded strongly.
“I would like to request for it as well to boost the morale of the dwarves.”
The dwarves of this world are said to have been born in the cold north.
In order to endure the cold, they began by digging holes for a living.
It is said that they became experts in mining after digging holes.
Being small in size, they require less effort to live.
It seems to be a result of natural evolution.
They are also highly skilled in construction.
They also like to drink highly concentrated alcohol because without it, their stomachs would freeze in the cold regions.
Oso-Russia.
(T/N: I don’t really get this.)
“All right, we’ll arrange it that way.”
Mil looks to Onyxim for confirmation.
“Elves are good at making wine, though. Even if we make it here, is there anyone who can make vodka?”
Onyxim nodded gravely.
“We have a meister in our midst. Please do.”
So they have an expert.
There’s no reason to refuse then.
If I prohibit it, it could lead to riots.
“We could start a brewing department.”
The teacher smiles broadly.
“Good idea! Yes! I agree!”
You really like alcohol, don’t you?
If it motivates you, good for you.
I’ll tell them what else needs to be done.
“This conference hall is getting too small, let’s build a dedicated administrative building.”
Kiara immediately stopped me.
“Brother, stop. We’ll take it from there.”
I restrained Kiara with my hand.
“Let me add something. Right now, there are one or two officers in charge of each task, but with the increase in workload, it’s going to be tougher to handle.”
They all nodded with a quiet expression.
“As a minister, you are still a representative. I want to make it a ministry with several staff members in it. One last point. I want to build a statue in front of the government building to symbolize our town.”
Mil seemed to be unsure of my intentions.
“A symbol?”
“Yes. A symbol would make it easier to visualize and unite the people.”
It’s a mascot or an image character like Kumon or something.
I think it’s good to have.
Charles looks at me as if he has a plan for me anyway.
“So …… do you have an original idea for that, my lord?”
“Let’s see …… I think it would be better if you make something around a girl as a draft.”
I’m sure they’ll find that a girl is more popular than an old man.
And then, suddenly, the teacher drops a mental cluster bomb.
“Do you want to imagine it with the kiddo’s first love?”
The bomb explodes, and the hall takes a turn for the worse.
""
Mil and Kiara’s gazes are intense.
“No …… here’s a beautiful woman and a beautiful girl. I was thinking of asking a sculptor to make something with Mil and Kiara as the base.”
I don’t have one to begin with.
If I had to guess, I’d say Mil is my first love.
But …… If I let this go, it will cost me my life.
So I changed it to something we can agree with immediately.
Kiara was satisfied with that statement.
“Well then…”
Mil also seems to be concerned about the word first love, but she doesn’t seem to have any objection to it.
“I have no objection.”
The two people who ran the meeting agreed.
Kiara stood up abruptly.
""
“Then, let’s find the best sculptor in the world and have him make it! That’s top priority!!!!”
As if it were a matter of course, Kiara began to abuse her authority.
Mill also stood up in full agreement.
“Yes, that sounds good.”
Oh, no.
I can’t stop this now…
“Anyway …… please list the government buildings, ministries and personnel on your own.”
Unusually, Jules raised his hand.
“Can I say something as well?”
I nodded and encouraged him to continue.
“I’m afraid I’m not going to be able to provide enough protection on my own. I would like to request the creation of the Elite Guards.”
I had expected to hear about this soon.
Oracio seemed to have some doubts about that.
He leaned forward, which was unusual for him.
“Does it have to be a knight?”
It would be a shame to stick a knight only as my bodyguard.
I shook my head.
“It doesn’t have to be a knight.”
When I answered without thinking, Charles laughed carefreely.
“There are going to be a hell of a lot of applicants. My lord is very popular, after all.”
Popular? I’m sure you mistake it for everyone’s toy ……
