Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

I want to help you because I want to borrow 20,000 Taranto from Almus.

Upon receiving the letter, Ains realized two things.

First, the kingdom's finances have deteriorated considerably.

As far as Ains knows, the Romanian kingdom is already doing its best.

Nevertheless, the need for 20,000 Taranto is… the treasury is completely empty.

And another.

You lose if you keep it.

Foreign merchants can't lend you 20,000 Taranto.

Even local merchants who ignore profits have a limit of 10,000 Tarantos.

Even more, foreign merchants cannot lend enough money.

At most three thousand.

Going well, 5000 is the limit.

In this state, the Romanian kingdom will sink.

It is the style of a Christian merchant to escape quickly without getting on a mud boat.

But ...

(Is my body part of a ship?)

Ains has already married the Julius family and has taken the lead in negotiating with the Romanian kingdom and the Persian Empire.

You cannot get off on the way.

Then ...

Ains has to move himself.

One thing, Ains had a trick.

However……

It is something that anyone can think of if you think a little.

But Romanian vassals, including Almus, do not offer it.

Are you not consciously thinking ...

Or did you come up with it, but are you absolutely disgusting?

Either.

Either way, the proposed Ains is at risk of being hated.

If you do poorly, you may be fired.

But ...

"I have no choice but to do it"

Strike while the iron is hot.

After writing to Almus, Ains went to the Palace of the Persis Empire.

"I thought I'd come, Ains."

"Haha! I'm sorry for your Majesty's eyes"

"Well, there's no other way in the cornered Romania ... Well, let's check one thing: are you coming on behalf of King Almus? Or are you a diplomat, Ains? "

Ains is asked by Xerxes.

As Emperor Xerxes stares at Ains with a funny smile, Ains replied, "Hakihaki."

"I'm dogmatic. I'm coming as a diplomat Ains."

"Is it good? That's as a minister."

"It was His Majesty who sent me to this land, the intention of which was ... to promptly interact with the Persis Empire and to facilitate diplomatic negotiations, so it is only in His Majesty that I do this It's about will. "

Then Xerxes squints.

"So ... you don't have any decision right now?"

"I don't have it right now, but I just sent a letter to His Majesty. I'm going to give me full control soon. Wouldn't it be more efficient to use diplomatic negotiations until then? "

"... Hmm, well, I understand you can't afford the time. That's good. Let's take the negotiations."

Emperor Xerxes smiles meanly ...

"So what's your request?"

"I would like to have a loan of 15,000 Taranto or help."

Debt is difficult between merchants and countries.

The country is overwhelmingly strong and can step down.

But ...

It is not easy to step down between countries.

Especially if it is between a small country and a great country.

So ...

In a way, it is the easiest to borrow.

However, it can also be a weak point.

There is no time to say such luxury now.

"I see, I see ... I don't mind if I don't get any aid ... in other words, if I can give it back, and I want the Kingdom of Romalia to win over the Republic of Pofenia. I'll give you that much money, but ...

Xerxes smiled grinningly.

"There are some conditions"

After all, it probably is.

Ains was ready.

This is where the production starts.

I can anticipate the request somehow ...

"I want a cute little kid from King Almus and Yulia ... His Highness Marx. If I was a little younger, I requested my daughter ... Well, I'm gonna be fine because I'm stiff."

Ains stroked her chest as expected.

She demands an important trace of his son on the shoulder of debt.

Well, that's a common story.

Ains has been working as a merchant apprentice with several sons on debt.

It's just a nation-wide story.

"Well, I want to say that right now. I heard that Marx is sick. And he's only five years old ... It's really difficult at this stage to separate from his parents and die. The long-awaited boy I've heard that. "

(I'm doing a lot of research ...)

Marx was sick, or he was in agony before he was born ...

They are information that only a few Secretaries of the Kingdom of Romania know of the fragments.

I catch it exactly.

"That's why I'm ten years old. Five years later, at the age of ten, I will have you study in Japan with Marx for a minimum of seven years and a maximum of ten years. The Persian Empire is much more advanced than the Romanian kingdom, and has diplomatic and trade relations with countries around the world.In the capital of our country, besides His Majesty Marx, Pofenia, Gallia, Germanis, Christians, and nomads The eastern nations ... the influential people of various regions, royal and noble children are studying abroad, and there are many books, which will be a good stimulus. "

in addition……

Xerxes adds.

"It's supposed to take care of the child of a human being. We will educate properly as a royal family. Let's attach a tutor equivalent to our prince. We will naturally provide living funds and give pocket money for playing. If you want, I can teach you swordsmanship, equestrianism, military science, philosophy, and music. There are enough teachers in our country. "

hostage……

There is a bad image, but it is not.

After all, it is a hostage between nations.

Naturally, they are treated with care.

For Xerxes, Marx is the next king of the Romania kingdom.

Of course, if you grow up in Bonkura, you're in trouble.

"Oh, yeah. Now my daughter, Sheherazade, also comes with me. This is a three-year-old girl that my concubine recently gave birth. She married Sheherazade, and she could have the child of Sheherazade as king of the Romanian Kingdom. That's one of the conditions .... I'm three years old and I don't know, but I want you to feel safe about my appearance.

I only meet once.

Xerxes added in his heart.

"Oh, don't worry. The concubine is a very good family child. Even the Persian Empire fits into ten fingers."

Rather, there is nothing in the Romanian kingdom in the countryside.

Xerxes added in his heart.

These conditions are very generous to Xerxes.

Not to be generous anymore.

"Is it possible to add a condition from me?"

"Tell me."

"To be married means that the Romanian kingdom and the Persian Empire are relatives. Isn't it too harsh to just lend money when relatives are in trouble?"

"What do you want to say?"

"Of the 15,000 Taranto, 5,000 Taranto is aid, not financing.

Emperor Xerxes thinks a bit ...

"Okay, I'll admit, but there are no more concessions. Get the consent of King Almus soon."

"I went well."

Emperor Xerxes smiles.

Everything went as intended.

"King Almus is a hard-to-remember, excellent king. But if you attach a 10,000 Taranto loan as a collar, you won't bite me. You can use it as a guard dog to protect the Tethys Sea for a while."

This is safe during the reign of King Almus.

At least ... 20 or 30 years later.

"Next is Prince Marx. I don't know his personality. But ... if I spend a lot of time in Persis, I'll become a pro-Persian nature. I should educate that way."

This is a safe time for Marx.

And ...

"I want you to be in this country for at least seven years, seventeen. If you are a healthy boy ... you'll be fifteen, and you can have children. I will not return until I am born. That child is a grandchild for King Almus, but also for me. "

This is safe during the reign of the third king.

at least……

For a hundred years, the Romanian kingdom can be under the influence of the Persian Empire.

The stability of the Tethys Sea is assured.

The first Pofenian war.

Its biggest winner was neither the Romanian kingdom nor the Republic of Pofenia.

The true winner was Emperor Xerxes.

"In this world, there are two things that can call themselves an emperor and an empire.

One is Tenko, which rules Tenka.

The second ruled both the east (Oriental) and the west (Occident), and inherited the blood of the Persian Empire ... a legitimate King of kings. The Romanian Empire, the Emperor Romania, our monarch. '

Continued profile of Emperor Xerxes in episode 136

East and West reunification and road construction, and at the same time the Tianhua region of the Far East united by the Scarlet Empire, form a large trade route across the continent.

Then, the architectural techniques and natural philosophy of Greece flow into the Persian Empire.

The Persis empire was at its peak in cultural, economic, territorial and military terms.

However……

Later in his reign, imperial rule began to fall.

The empire was divided by the civil war that occurred after his death.

The successor nation was destroyed by the rapidly expanding Roman Empire and the independent Paltdia.

As a result, the east (Oriental) and the west (Occident) were divided into two parts, the Partodia and the Romanian Empire, who claimed to be the kings of the kings and succeeded by Persis.

The reunification of the east (Oriental) and the west (Occident) had to wait for the conquest of Pariatia by the Emperor of the Romanian Emperor, the "Wise Emperor" Westria I.
