"What exactly does the Lord of Tilamei intend to do?"
After leaving the Palace, representatives from various guilds naturally gathered in a secret room.
Frank, leaning against his chair, spoke up first.
"It's probably to drive up the prices," one guild representative said without a second thought.
"It doesn't seem like it..." another countered.
"Or could it be that he's making too much and deliberately wants to make less? Or perhaps, is it to ensure that the commoners have enough to eat?"
"This..." The guild representative paused, momentarily at a loss for words.
"No matter what the Lord of Tilamei plans to do, our objective remains to procure grain," Dougla stated gravely,
"Now that everyone is gathered here, I assume it's not for quarreling but to swiftly get to the main point and devise a suitable strategy!"
"What Lord Dougla says makes sense."
"Right, let's discuss what needs to be done."
"..."
Under Dougla's lead, the secret meeting's topic shifted to strategizing.
