Starting with the defeated female knight

Not to mention that this place has just experienced a great upheaval, with almost every family suffering losses, and many even being wiped out.

A large amount of ownerless property and vacant properties were simply left there.

The transaction was completed quickly.

The goods brought from Dawn City were sold out almost within a day, while the steam monsters were also loaded with goods obtained from the capital.

Then, just two days after the people of the capital thought that was about it, the steam train reappeared, carrying a brand new batch of goods, even more than before.

Great trade began.

With the opening of the capital market, Dawn Territory, which had been accumulating strength for a long time, began to operate rapidly and unleashed astonishing efficiency.

Truckloads of goods were being transported away; they were just cheap synthetic products, some of which even the villages themselves could make.

But what they received in return were various rare and precious items collected by the entire empire in the capital.

Moreover, it's not just the capital city.

Through cooperation from various places, and with the protection of the Knights of Dawn who had not appeared for some time.

With the roar of the magic-powered steam engines, food and various cheap products from Dawn Territory began to spread throughout the Empire.

Not only did it lower grain prices and alleviate famine, it also allowed them to exchange all the imperial goods for a very low price.

Valuable items are kept for further processing or reprocessing, while worthless items are sent out for foreign trade through other channels.

"......foreign trade?"

"Besides the Empire, does Dawn City have any other trading partners?"

Of course!

Tentacle nodded calmly, then glanced at the green worms looking at the goods and nodded again.

【One code for one code】

[Your empire and the elves may have conflicts, but...]

【We in Dawn City still need to do business with the elves, you know】

PS: Second update delivered. I'm off to work again.

Volume 1: Chapter 111: You, all you think about is ( ) ( )

Sell ​​the Empire's goods to the elves.

This sounds absurd, and it actually is.

But the problem is, it actually can be done.

It could even benefit both sides.

To summarize the situation on the Elven side, although their products and tools are much better than those on the Empire side.

However, because of the elves' long growth period and slow pace, their products are characterized by slow, meticulous workmanship.

Although the final product is often quite good, the quantity is somewhat...

Or rather, for the elves, producing daily necessities is less of a job and more of an art form.

So forget about efficiency; it's questionable whether the final product these elves produce will even cover their production costs.

The goods from the Empire, while not of particularly high quality, were even inferior to those from Dawn City.

But Green's main intention was simply to recycle what was usable, break it down into materials, or perform secondary processing.

As for the remaining unusable ones, which were originally going to be thrown away or disposed of as garbage, they can now even be sold to other buyers.

The price doesn't matter; as long as the elves are willing to pay the shipping fee, Green can deliver the goods.

As for Dolores, although she had just suffered a great loss and was rolling around on the shoulders of the mobile armor.

But life must go on.

Furthermore, Green didn't even appear in that epic battle of the gods, and few people know what he did behind the scenes.

Even among the few who knew the truth, they only knew part of it, let alone Dolores.

So, despite possibly being the biggest reason for Green Bug's setback this time, Green can still sell his goods to the elves.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you might find something.

Aside from the demons and monsters brought over by the green worm, it seems that all the participants in this grand melee of gods and men in the empire are somehow connected to him, and in a sense, they can even be said to have been orchestrated by him.

Daisy fetishists and tentacles are heinous crimes.jpg

Even so, all parties tacitly refrained from asking what exactly the tentacles had done in the process.

Those who knew the information didn't try to find out more, and those who didn't know the information couldn't even imagine it.

After all, some things, in general, may be beneficial to everyone, or even necessary to do.

But ultimately, there are some things that can be done but not said, much less brought to the forefront.

Then, in this tacit understanding, the reconstruction of the empire slowly began.

After the situation calmed down, the children in the tentacle cave were released.

After an unknown period of continuous and terrifying study sessions in a dark room, he finally saw the light of day again.

It was only at this moment that the people of the capital realized that many children who were thought to have died because of the war had actually been taken away by tentacles to attend extra classes.

Even some children whose parents or even their entire families have passed away are still alive and well.

Sheila and Grace were also released.

Their parents died in the turmoil, and the entire Valencia family was severely weakened.

The superior bloodlines suffered heavy casualties, and the clan leaders were also either dead or wounded.

Even though the matter was over, the Valencia family was still in a state of near paralysis, and the family was shrouded in gloom.

It was at this moment that Grace, Sheila, and the children who had been taught by Green stepped forward.

Yes, letting children take charge of family affairs sounds absurd, and it is indeed absurd.

Not to mention that among these children are many of the scraps they once looked down upon.

But after it was actually put into operation, people were surprised to find that...

Even if it's just a group of children who have undergone a year or even a few months of professional training at Green School, the families they manage are stronger than before.

Is it because Green is such a good coach?

Of course not.

In just a few months, even compulsory education cannot be made up, let alone managing a large family.

The problem is that even these children, who only know a little after being trained by Green, are still better than those mentally unstable nobles from before.

Even if you put a dog up there, let alone these children, it would still surpass most nobles whose minds are only on bloodlines and breeding.

Especially Sheila and Grace.

As the first two children Green found, they spent the most time with him and received the most education and guidance from him.

Sheila is a little lacking. Because she was born with a disability and has never received any education, and because she is mainly good at fighting, her skill level is relatively normal, just a little higher than the other children.

But for Grace, before her legs were fully healed, she couldn't do anything, so when her sister wasn't around, she could only chat with the tentacles in her arms.

Moreover, because of her optimistic personality, intelligence, and interest in learning, she learns things very quickly and earlier than other children.

When Grace was studying at the Touch Cave University in the capital, her level had already far surpassed that of the other children at the time.

After confirming this, Green did not force her to continue participating in the studies.

Instead, she was singled out and put in charge of leading a class, specifically serving as the homeroom teacher for the children of the Valencia family.

In his spare time as a homeroom teacher, he specially arranged for one of his tentacles to give her individual lessons.

Previous experience, plus the experience of leading a class.

It can be said that from the moment she emerged from the Tentacle Cave, she was already the best candidate to become the de facto head of the Valencia family.

As for the issue of discrimination against waste products...

After those little junks that Green had modified showed their strength, the rest of the family naturally kept quiet.

However, the process of taking over the family business went smoothly.

However, some minor problems have arisen in the operation of the family business.

It's not that there's anything wrong with the family, but rather how Sheila and Grace manage the family afterward.

Or more precisely, there was a disagreement over trade with Dawn City and Green.

Sheila insists that everything her sisters have was given to them by the Tentacle Master, so everything belongs to the Tentacle Master.

Even if you take over the family, you can't forget all of this. Even if you can't give the whole family to Green directly, you should try to give back to Green as much as possible.

But Grace had no such intention at all.

Not to mention giving back, after taking charge of the family's affairs, she even used precise calculations to bargain with Dawn City and even Green.

Faced with her sister's questioning, Grace sighed slightly after completing another calculation.

"Sister, have you forgotten what the deity... I mean, the tentacle deity, instructed us to do after he came out?"

"For normal trade, we can't just give away our profits. We just need to do a little maneuvering when Lord Tentacle needs it."

"But that's not okay..."

Hillary was about to retort.

Then Grace pulled a tentacle out of her skirt.

"I report my work progress to Master Tentacle every day."

Grace touched the tentacle in her arms, her gaze gentle and tender.

Then she raised her head and looked at her older sister in front of her.

"All information about the family is disclosed to Lord Tentacle. Whatever Lord Tentacle needs, I will provide it immediately."

"And sister, haven't you also heard the adults tell the story of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs?"

"If we hand over the family's property now, the amount might be considerable, but what about afterwards?"

"After losing our family, how are we supposed to continue laying eggs for the Tentacle Master?"

"Only by preserving this family, and even finding ways to run it better and better, can we continuously provide our eggs to Master Tentacle and create greater benefits for him."

"As for bargaining, the family is currently in a low period. I must first seize enough profits before I can get it running again and gain the support of others."

"And as for what comes after..."

She smiled, then took out several documents that she had prepared beforehand and handed them to Sheila.

“Look closely, sister.”

"Although I am indeed bargaining, look at these terms. The things being exchanged are all for the long-term interests of the family."

"Even if no exchange is made afterward, just with these things, as long as the family recovers and operates normally for a few years, the benefits that Master Tentacle can receive will exceed everything the family currently has."

"And, most importantly..."

Those scarlet eyes looked at Sheila and gave her a strange smile.

"We all belong to Lord Tentacle, that's the most important thing, isn't it?"

Sheila fell silent.

Even after receiving Green's education, some things were still a bit ahead of the times for the children.

Moreover, it's less the children who manage the various families and more the tentacles' agents who do.

Normally things are fine, but if something really goes wrong, at least one child will definitely go missing.

Then, after half a day or several hours, upon returning from the tentacle cave, a fairly reliable solution will be provided, as if divinely inspired.
