It's definitely slander to say they're freeloaders, they've paid quite a bit, otherwise they wouldn't be reacting so strongly.
But... was that deal considered a secret agreent?
In Ticky's impression, Lord Demon King didn't seem to shy away at all, he said it directly in front of all the soldiers.
Now that it's about ti for the tavern to open, it's only natural for the news to spread.
There's only one explanation —
Lord Demon King did it on purpose!
Ticky, being a quick learner, after mastering "Magic," imdiately began to try to think from the Demon King's perspective, carefully pondering, trying to emulate Lumier to relieve the Demon King's burdens.
However, Kedson couldn't wait any longer. After all, those people had already surrounded his Governor's Mansion, and if he waited any longer, who knows if they'd rob his Vault!
"Let see Prince Colin!" He slapped his thigh, hurrying anxiously, "I must report to him personally!"
Seeing this madman, Ticky quickly reached out to stop him, cursing at him.
"Are you still asleep? That gentleman doesn't have the ti to see you. If you can't handle this matter, then there's no need for either of us to be here."
Kedson's expression froze, and after a mont he finally cald down, timidly saying.
"Then what should I do... call General Hamoldon?"
After all, he's just a captain working for the Chamber of Comrce, in other words, a high-level weed of the Imperial, politically immature, naming people like reciting a nu when encountering problems.
Ticky smiled slightly, saying leisurely.
"You don't need to call anyone; this is your problem."
Before Kedson could ask further, he continued.
"I'll teach you a trick, go back and tell those people, just say... Prince Colin traveled day and night to Assam City to negotiate a trade agreent with the Lizardman Kingdom. He hasn't even had a hot al in two weeks, yet they have no sympathy for the prince who rescued them from the shipwreck. Lord Saint Sis is watching from the heavens, and ungrateful people are destined for Hell."
First, you have to take the moral high ground.
Seeing Kedson's dawning understanding, Ticky continued leisurely.
"Then tell them, the rumors are inaccurate, the food Prince Colin sold to General Hamoldon wasn't a secret agreent, but to fill the Imperial's logistical supply gap, for the sake of the Imperial's interest... and it's not cheap, thirty silver coins per ton."
This... isn't considered cheap?
Kedson hesitated for a mont, just about to inquire, but Ticky raised his hand to stop his speech and continued.
"Finally, tell those causing trouble that these foods will be delivered three months later and won't appear at the port imdiately. Instead of making aningless complaints here, they might as well help the Imperial construction team with road repairs, where they'll not only get three als but also speed up the delivery of the food."
If you have no money, contribute labor, this has always been the Withered Wood Port Governor's Mansion's policy, they have no obligation to feed these idle people.
That way, the sailors' problems will be solved, and just with those captains and rchants, nothing will get done.
Of course.
The Demon King is rciful and won't settle accounts with them just because they raised their voices a bit. Their problems will be resolved just the sa.
Ticky, mimicking the great gentleman's thinking, said to the increasingly enlightened Kedson.
"Moreover, if they're interested in corn for thirty silver coins a ton, they can certainly purchase it from the Withered Wood Port Governor's Mansion, and the rciful Prince Colin will sell it to them equally."
"It's just that the delivery ti is the sa as the Imperial, three months later."
"And they must pay upfront."
