"...... As you can imagine, 'Asuna Lanmark' is my daughter."
The first Dark Elf man I met at the meeting, 'Othros Lanmark'.
I was surprised inwardly at the words he said bitterly.
However, judging from his expression, the relationship between Asuna and Ortlos may not be very good.
I was surprised, but tried not to show it on my face.
And I nodded, thinking not to mention it now.
'So it was. To have met the family of Asuna, Fara's personal bodyguard. I am very, very pleased.'"
'It is my pleasure, too, to be able to greet you in person. I am pleased.'
Zack, who was watching the exchange between me and him, smiled and muttered as if to add to the conversation.
'Oltros-dono ...... no, the Lanmark family is a venerable family as a military family among the Renalute. Therefore, it is only natural that a 'warrior' like 'Asuna' has appeared. Lord Ortlos is now serving the country as a 'civil official' in order to protect the Lanmark family."
Zack continued to speak in a smiling and nonchalant manner, but Ortlos kept a bitter expression on his face.
As far as I can see, there seems to be something underhanded about the relationship between Zack and Oltros,......, and I smiled smugly as I thought about it.
'Heh, I see. I look forward to working with you in the future."
When I held out my hand to Oltros, he also smiled and held my hand,...... a little painfully.
At that time, I got a bad feeling in the eyes of Oltros, and I secretly used the magic 'electric field' to search for his presence.
Then, the black feeling he has towards me is just hatred.
But I don't remember doing anything to him.
At that moment, Elias, the mountain father, echoes his voice.
'That's enough with the greetings. Then it's time to start the talks.'
'Yes, Your Majesty. Father.
I finish shaking hands with Oltros, nod to King Elias' words and take my seat for another meeting.
King Elias takes the envelope from Zack and quietly places it on his desk.
Then he grins.
" lord Rainer. This letter of intent that I received says that you want to make effective use of the products invented by my son-in-law and others with our country. In particular, the ...... 'charcoal truck' is very interesting. Can you tell us about it immediately?"
'Yes, we will. However, it was my son who came up with the idea of using it, including the 'charcoal truck'. Therefore, I would like Rid to explain it to you. ...... is this correct?"
'Yes. Then I will ask my son-in-law to do so."
The conversation between the father and King Elias ends, and the eyes of everyone present turn to me at once.
When I showed a little surprise, I nodded my head with a wry smile.
I am aware of that. Then, with my presumption, I will explain it to you.
I cleared my throat and began to talk about the possibilities of the charcoal wagon, for a start.
I began to explain the possibilities of the charcoal wagon, which could tow a larger load than a horse-drawn wagon and could carry a greater quantity in a single transport.
And that the power source would change from 'horse' to 'internal combustion engine using charcoal', eliminating the need for horses and thus reducing maintenance costs.
Furthermore, sustainable transport is possible as long as two drivers and fuel are available.
The volume of goods would contribute greatly to the development of Renalute and Bardia territory.
If there are problems, they are the 'maintenance of roads' and 'charcoal supply stations'.
However, 'road maintenance' can be solved by dispatching units of the 2nd Knights of Bardia.
As for charcoal, the Bardia territory is capable of producing large quantities of charcoal, so supply can be sustained.
After some explanation, King Elias and the others look calm, but their eyes are full of interest and surprise.
In the midst of this, Oltros raises his hand.
'Master Rid. Certainly, the potential of the charcoal wheel would be fantastic. But even if the roads were to be improved, would it really be possible to transport at such a high rate of travel?'
He says these words to provoke me a little.
I was not the only one to notice this, as my father's eyebrows twitched a little.
I nod and smile at Ortlos's words.
'Yes, I think your doubts are justified, Mr Ortlos. However, we left the Bardia estate in the early hours of the morning today in a charcoal truck driven by my father, Rainer. And we arrived here before you all."
[......⁉]
Oltros looked surprised when he understood that we had arrived at this meeting quite early, despite the fact that we had left early in the morning of the day in a charcoal truck.
If it were a horse-drawn carriage, it would be impossible to reach the crossing point where this meeting was to take place if the carriage left early in the morning on the day of the meeting.
However, I have actually shown and demonstrated that this would be possible with a 'charcoal wagon'.
King Elias grinned when he saw the look of amazement on Oltros's face and my smile.
'I see. ...... So it will be a new circulation network, linking the Bardian territory with the Renalute?'
'Yes, as you say. But that's not all. I would like to take this opportunity to conclude a 'Special Frontier Free Trade Agreement' between Bardia and Renalute.'
I proposed the 'Special Frontier Free Trade Agreement' to King Elias, who was smiling, which is an important part of this meeting.
King Elias and the others tilted their heads at the unfamiliar words and looked at each other.
King Elias gave me a dubious look and muttered to me.
'Sorry, my son-in-law ......, but what will the 'Special Frontier Freedom Trade Agreement' be about?"
'Yes. 'I will explain that in detail as well. Diana, could you please provide us all with the information?
"Yes, I will."
I shifted my gaze to Diana as I answered King Elias.
She bowed respectfully and distributed the materials she had prepared to King Elias and everyone else.
When I confirmed that the materials were in his hands, I smiled again.
'Well then, I will continue my explanation."
"...... As you can imagine, 'Asuna Lanmark' is my daughter."
The first Dark Elf man I met at the meeting, 'Othros Lanmark'.
