Chapter 118. The Future Different From The Past, Part XXIV

Editor Group: Liber Reverie

A very tired-looking face, Asher, nodded, putting down the docunt. He was now in a small town far from the capital. This was due to the Aristocratic Party’s rise to power. When Asher’s permission fell, Lane hurried on.

“In fact, one of my relatives got the offer.” Lane scratching his cheek had a pretty embarrassing face.

Asher asked again, “Your relative?”

“Yes, he’s been stuck in a room all the ti, and he’s been having a strange delusion... I don’t know how he got the offer.”

“I don’t think the investor A is not going to let anyone in, so I’m sure there’s sothing very capable about your relative.”

It was still a small force compared to the Aristocratic Party, but now that it was too big to ignore.

“Well, I just hope he doesn’t co back with tears.”

Lane, embarrassed by the praise of Asher, answered, clearing his throat. Asher’s eyes were fierce by the idle talk except for the main subject.

“So, that’s not the point, right?”

“Ah, yes. He’s been asked to join the eting once and see what’s going on. So I thought about how Mr. Asher would participate instead of my relative.”

“Oh, that’s what you are saying.”

It was a force that he had been paying attention to. It was quite a large scale for a baron. The amount was too large to support the business of countless young businessn. He was sure there must be a considerable number of powerful people behind the force, and he had been prying back the whole ti. If it was in the middle of the party, he was going to have to pull it over to his side.

Anyway, the work was almost finished. It wasn’t long before he got back to the capital, so it was a great opportunity to approach.

“All right, I’ll do that.”

“Oh, and I think the Duke has put too much pressure on us and we have to release the luxury goods. It is said that His Majesty couldn’t stand it anymore, and he was in a fit of rage. He ordered to bring Mr. Asher in.”

The backlash was faster than he thought. It might be because of the fast-rising price in the market. He didn’t calculate that the market was going to jump this far, but he assud it was probably because soone had been playing around with sugar in the beginning.

“How many of them are bankrupt? Who has left the capital?”

“About thirteen are bankrupt. Five went out of the capital city. The trade route is cut off anyway, and the other eight will not be able to revive, so they’ll have to get out of the capital soon.”

“All right. Then try to release it. There’s still a big fish left anyway, so it’s okay to let go of the small fries.”

“I see. Viscount Vigue is not sound of mind. He runs like an idiot, even if there’s the princess behind him. I think we can squeeze them in a row and get rid of at least ten more.”

“The princess may not know. If she had known, she wouldn’t have let him go.”

It was due to the suggestion of Aria. He had never thought of that before she had told him to sell the casino. Of course, he had been subjected to all kinds of insults for being incompetent, but as a result, he had been able to catch a big fish.

Viscount Vigue seed to have tried to take advantage of the crisis faced by the Aristocratic Party, but he was also outraged but he didn’t know that the person who had introduced him to the casino was the enemy. It was the best choice that scattered their power at once.

“Then I think Lady Aria really had a great vision. You endured a brief insult and caught a big fish.”

Lane also began to praise Aria with her na in his mouth as if he felt sympathetic, and Asher nodded his head and included the remaining docunts in his eyes. His mouth was slightly raised because Aria’s na was ntioned, and he ca up with her face.

At the sight of Asher, who seed to be in a good mood for the first ti in a long ti, Lane went overboard and talked nonsense. He didn’t know why, but he had always expressed his joy when it ca to Aria.

“So why don’t you co to see Aria, so that you can cool off for a while?”

“... what?”

“Thanks to Lady Aria, things have worked out well, and only the finishing touch remained. I think it’s okay if you go and see her for a while anyway. It won’t take long.”

Generally, it was a long way to the capital, which took more than ten days by carriage, but it was only for ordinary people, not for Asher. Asher, who rolled his eyes, seed to think for a mont, and soon shook his head.

“No, Even the ti to go and co is an instant, but I can’t stand the aftermath because it’s a long way to go.”

Then, Lane reminded of Asher, who had suffered from uncomfortable behavior, after using the power, and he hurriedly bowed down and apologized, saying, “I didn’t want to talk about it.” Asher had not traveled long distances lately, so Lane forgot because he hadn’t seen him suffer.

“It’s not long before I go back, so I can go and see.”

In conclusion, however, he said he was going to see Aria, though it would be a little late. Then, Lane smiled bitterly. Asher had been educated like the Crown Prince since he was very young, and he had never been a child of his own age, but now he had seen it thanks to Aria.

“Then I’ll do my best to finish the job quickly. I don’t know if I should stay up all night.”

“... don’t tell you’ve had a good night’s sleep so far.”

“Never, never! I’ve had a hard ti living an uncomfortable life!”

Lane barely managed to put up with the addition that the fatigue had destroyed his handso face. If he said another word here, he might have to take on other people’s business. He could not bring down the tower built with Aria’s story.

“I’ll take care of it as soon as I can.”

Later, Lane quickly released the luxury goods to the market, as reported to Asher. Of course, the man who had been supplying luxury goods had to step back carefully to avoid revealing his identity, and he sent him to spend his vacation abroad to rest for the ti being.

When the new luxury goods were finally approved by the customs office, there was widespread derision that the crown prince gave in to the Aristocratic Party. The Aristocratic Party insulted him with excitent, and the Moderates and so nobles in the Crown Prince’s Party also seed to be agonizing over whether the war was really going downhill. But it was also for a while. This was because they could not keep up with the plumting prices of luxury goods. It was due to the excessive purchase of luxury goods.

Furthermore, it wasn’t a monopoly anymore because they were released so much in the market. The Aristocratic Party no longer had the ans to control the market to their heart’s content, as in the past. Asher handed over the trade route he had taken from the Aristocratic Party to Marquis Vincent, who had been guarding the Moderate Party for generations.

When the marquis was first asked to take care of the luxury goods, he refused coldly, saying, “Don’t let this bother because I’m still busy in many ways.” But he soon accepted it, even though he grumbled whether the Aristocratic Party’s dominance was displeased.

“Mr. Marquis, Pinonua sent you a letter.”

Marquis Vincent stared at his butler, who had brought the letter, for a mont, and he sighed. Although he did not like the Aristocratic Party’s dominance, he thought he had no reason to take the trade route even though he was still busy. And the interference of... was intense.

“Give that.”

The letter he sent was quite concise.

[Sell luxury goods at less than half the original price.]

And it was cocky. So he managed to put up with this letter, muttering that it would not be Pinonua but the Crown Prince.

He could see his intentions. Even if he would sell them at less than half the price, the number of buyers other than aristocrats would not increase because the original price was high. The price of luxury goods, however low, was extrely high for the common people. So, no matter how playful he was at the tis, there would be no harm to their peace.

‘The Crown Prince is not going to leave the Aristocratic Party alone.’
