The nobility first strives to enhance its position, power, and wealth. Because it is a sword and a shield for the nobility.

Next to them, they corrupt in their attempt to gain fame, force, and networking.

In the case of aristocrats, first the title, then the title, and then the wealth are often superior or inferior. But they can't be easily turned back.

Therefore, a number of nobles go to various meetings and salons and try to enhance their reputation as aristocrats while networking. In addition, some people have no status or power, but are good at business. They can increase their private armies and increase their power.

Some even want to outrun other aristocrats one step more than others, but they deviate from the laws of the kingdom.

Nevertheless, it is common sense that the faction plan among the nobles will not change unless we are blessed with some luck.

That the kingdom has strengthened its meritocracy by changing the king. It can be said that Jalpa and Panamera were able to raise their titles because of this point.

It is in the interest of the kingdom that those with strength rise, but it depends on whose point of view it is.

Since the number of seats for the top is fixed, it is inevitable that if someone goes up, someone will go down.

Jalpa, Panamera has kept those old noble families silent by force. I must have achieved my connections on the battlefield.

But I'm not (Van).

A child who was assigned to the most unwanted part of the Marquis' territory and who was set up as a village lord on the brink of collapse.

The child crushed the dragon with a few gestures and won the title.

We secretly supported the war against Yerinetta, well-known but equivocal.

In any case, from those who do not know the track record of the new nobleman named Van, the (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...) (...)

Most people think that Jalpa's schemes have made me invisible to the nobles around me.

As it stands, only the titles may be entangled in the stupid nobility above.

But at my best, I appealed to the world's top giant guild, the Commercial Guild. The reason for the failure was that everyone's reaction was so interesting that they couldn't stop.

As a result, Van became recognized by the Commercial Guild.

As I heard later, there are several types of relationships with commercial guilds. Interaction with leading chambers of commerce in various countries with the level recognized by commercial guilds will be at the top of the list, allowing for reciprocal buying and selling and, moreover, for some degree of negotiation.

Even if the commercial guild is allowed to join the normal chamber of commerce, the content of the transaction will be quite favorable to the commercial guild, and any request from the commercial guild will not be refused.

Even in such an unequal relationship, many chambers of commerce have joined the commercial guild if they have the opportunity to expand their sales channels to other countries and neighboring continents.

Incidentally, from the commercial guild, I and the Berlango Chamber of Commerce were able to trade at the same rank as the first-class Chamber of Commerce.

"... stand out. No matter what I think, it will stand out..."

Belle and Lango drink with me in their head.

"Victory, brother."

"You won, brother."

The two men, who were under a strange tension, exchanged a strange toasting greeting and made a sound with their glasses together. It seems better not to get too involved.

Well, they've only seen this through the eyes of a merchant. I can't help it.

Thinking so, I let out a sigh. Then, Apollo, who was laughing with Diane, noticed what was happening.

“What's the matter? If you have any questions about the transaction, please feel free to ask. If there is a problem with each other's perception, it will be troublesome later. How often do you trade? Or did you have a merchandise that you would like your commercial guild to arrange for?”

While smiling bitterly at Apollo, who asked in a good mood, I waved one hand left and right. Now that a lot of talks have progressed, I am packing the last story in the reception room.

Apollo, Diane, and I sit at the table in the room with Bell, Lango, and Rosalie. Kamsin and Till also stood quietly in the corner of the room, trying to erase the signs.

When Apollo asks a question, everyone's eyes in the room concentrate on me. I thought about flushing it, but somehow it became an air that had to be answered.

"No, it's my own problem." I don't know if it's too lucky or if it's too prominent... "

With a vague statement, the other faces looked at each other, but Apollo and Diane immediately guessed.

"Sure enough, I hear you've just been sacrificed recently." Many people think they have someone to guide them, even when they're old. ”

Diane nodded as Apollo stroked his chin.

“That's right, I would have had the same idea if I hadn't actually seen this situation. I've heard rumors about Lord Van, but I didn't think he was in this state.”

Rosalie nodded several times when she heard both of them reply like that.

"Is that so?" After all, the nobility has a lot of trouble. If you are a merchant, it will be profitable to become a successor or increase your reputation. Well, I would make suggestions that would benefit business enemies as well. ”

In response to Rosalie's words, Bell shook her head in a bitter smile.

"Gain the trust of customers and make it convenient for the chambers involved. In order to make the most of the new sales channel, we will expand horizontally and reflect it on other businesses... it is because the merchants of the Mary Chamber of Commerce are excellent that they can do just that. If you're an average merchant, you're lucky to have a chance to make money, but you can't make good use of it."

"Huh? The Berlango Chamber of Commerce with the momentum of dropping flying birds comes from the pride of saying that it is extraordinary?"

Please don't, Rosalie-san.

Rango's face was twitching and returning his dislike, and his neck was strangled. With a smile on his face, Bell placed the glass in his hand on the table and looked at me.

“We were just lucky. It's just that we were blessed with such a huge fortune that even the most ordinary of us couldn't miss it."

Rango nodded repeatedly to Bell's words. And Apollo smiled happily as he watched the exchange.

"... ahh, it's good to be exuberant. Everything is most interesting as you go up. It's very difficult, but every time I succeed in a new initiative, I can get unspoken excitement and a sense of accomplishment... I just want to quit being an investigator in a commercial guild and join the Berlango Chamber of Commerce."

And a member of a gigantic, world-famous organization speaks incredibly loudly. Diane and the others turned their faces at the same time.

Noticing the gaze, Apollo laughed and shrugged his shoulders.

“I'm just kidding. After all, the next time we do business with Master Van or the Berlango Chamber of Commerce, it'll be more fun for us. Being busy is a matter of preparation. I'll do my best to earn it."

Strongly declaring so, Apollo carried a glass of wine into his mouth and drank the liquid inside.

"... whoever interferes with the business, whether it is an aristocrat or not, will not be tolerated. Let's get rid of it all."

After Apollo said that, he continued to say, "It's from the back."
