Chapter 312. The most surplus business in the world is a liquor seller, right? (5)
“Really…. Is it Arel Ernesia?
I can’t believe you even made this kind of drink.”
“?…yes?”
Remen unknowingly gave out a puzzled voice.
At his reaction, the Queen slightly twisted her lips in ridicule.
“You thought you wouldn’t know? I also know about the situation on the continent. All of the excellent things made in your country have gone through his brain, right?”
“…That’s right.”
“There is also something about the Holy Kingdom in the past. There’s no way we don’t know his name, can we?”
things about the kingdom.
When it was mentioned, Remen became nervous.
Come to think of it, the Queen has not yet officially expressed her position on what they think of Ernesia Kingdom regarding the Holy Kingdom.
As a guess, I don’t have bad feelings, but… I don’t know.
In any case, because of the war with the Kingdom of Ernesia, the Holy Kingdom was virtually destroyed before they could take revenge.
However, the queen shrugged as if she understood his concern and continued.
“Don’t worry. Rather, I am grateful for the Holy Land. Rather, thanks to them, we achieved our revenge without shedding much blood. In a way, it is a debt.”
Aside from the Queen, the representatives also don’t say anything, but seem to agree.
“Give me such a wonderful present.
Why do you think we hate you? You have a lot of worries.”
She smiled boldly and told me not to worry.
“I also called you to this place. Actually, it was to say this.”
….Didn’t you just call me to have a drink?
I held back this word.
“We… Kelia wants to continue to strengthen friendship with Ernesia Kingdom.
Please tell this to your king. Well… it’s just like saying it in words. take this.”
As she beckoned, the maid with the most human-like body handed him a document sealed with the Queen’s seal.
It will be a self-written letter.
“What I want to say is written there.
Give it to me.”
“…I will definitely tell you.”
He knelt down and politely bowed.
He also had the intention of establishing friendship on an equal footing with the Kingdom of Ernesia and Celia.
“Well, next time I have a chance, I want to face your king.”
“I will definitely tell you.”
Thinking that the face-to-face with the queen would finally come to an end, Remen stood up holding the letter dearly.
“Oh, come to think of it, I have to say this.”
Is there anything else left to say?
The Queen called again for Remen, who was about to step down.
“Since I sent you such a gift, shouldn’t I also thank Arele Ernesia for bringing these drinks to the world?”
“That… I will tell you the words without fail.”
“I will definitely tell you.”
Thinking that the face-to-face with the queen would finally come to an end, Remen stood up holding the letter dearly.
“Oh, come to think of it, I have to say this.”

The Queen called again for Remen, who was about to step down.
“Since I sent you such a gift, shouldn’t I also thank Arele Ernesia for bringing these drinks to the world?”
“That… I will tell you the words without fail.”
“Oh, and if possible, please tell me this too.”
Saying that she wanted to deliver it directly to Arell Ernesia, she mischievously put the contents of the glass into her mouth and smiled strangely.
“I want you to tell me that you seem different from the other ‘geniuses’ I’ve seen.”
“….All right.”
I don’t know what it means, but I have no choice but to tell you.
Remen nodded and stepped back this time.
The Queen of Kelia gave her own words of praise.
This rumor quickly spread not only in Kelly’s country, but also in other countries that were monitoring the situation.
To be precise, it seemed that the queen of Kelia brought up the story of the liquor she received as a gift later, when she was talking with envoys from other countries.
At first, they were interested in the relationship between Ernesia Kingdom and Kelia.
Soon, their interest was focused on the drink that the Queen had praised.
How good is it that it makes a fuss?
The alcohol sent as a gift literally showed the publicity effect.
Everyone expected that the two countries would strengthen their friendship anyway.
So, naturally, their attention is bound to be focused on the gift that the Queen said she liked so much.
Already with Arell Ernesia.
They were the ones who watched Ernesia Kingdom’s progress while tediously sucking their fingers.
Of course, he thought that there was no way he wouldn’t put the alcohol he had developed into the market.
In fact, it was also what I was hoping for in the middle of the day.
They’re just pretending to be serious because it’s a product from another country.
just as expected.
First, the Arnil Company released new products within the Ernesia Kingdom.
First of all, it is to start selling to nobles and gradually expand sales.
The first appearance was at a ball held by the royal castle.
The aristocrats who participated in the ball showed a keen interest when they saw alcohol they had never seen in their lives lying alongside food.
I couldn’t help but pay attention to the drinks that stood out more than the fancy decorations that decorated the ball.
Food and refreshments were already in the background.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen alcohol.”
“I heard the rumors! This is the liquor sent to the Queen of Kelia, right?”
In particular, it was the drinkers who swallowed their mouths.
I’ve already heard rumors of Queen Kelly.
They showed a particularly keen interest as they deliberately imported expensive alcohol from other countries and enjoyed it.
Thanks to that, at the banquet that day, everyone held a glass of alcohol of their choice in one hand and talked about it.
Everyone is sharing opinions about alcohol.
Some even showed a willingness to buy in bulk once alcohol was sold.
“Hmm… After tasting it, I don’t think I will be able to taste anything I drank before.”
“I see. In the past, it was a pity that the Felsen Kingdom’s wine was the best, but that won’t be the case anymore.”
“It’s good to see the brewers from the Felsen Kingdom disassembling it in the future.”
“Umm… I bought a large quantity of distilled spirits from the Kingdom of Felsen last month, and I regret it. What to do with all that…
No one complained about the new drink.
“I have to thank Arel Ernesia for bringing this type of alcohol to the world.”
“you’re right. Truly, we are blessed.”
“For Arel-nim!”
The banquet ended with everyone praising the new drink.
And it is said that most nobles wrapped their heads the next day due to excessive drinking.
However, no one regretted it, and soon after, the Arnil store put various types of alcohol on the market as new products, as expected by everyone.
They sold various types of alcohol, from mass-produced products that could be easily accessed by the common people to high-end products aimed at aristocrats who sold after receiving orders.
Nobles who had already tasted the drink made reservations before sales even started.
High-end products sold like wings.
People also preferred the new beer and wine instead of the existing beer and wine.
“Big! The taste is unbearable!”
“Originally, I thought beer was fishy, but that must have been my mistake! I never thought it would be this cool.”
“How about this wine! It’s not sour at all.”
For those who consume on a daily basis from the beginning, tasteless alcohol is equivalent to hard work, so they have no choice but to welcome it.
Rather than strong alcoholic beverages such as whiskey or soju, they preferred improved beer or wine.
One of the practical reasons why it is particularly preferred is that the price is also cheaper than the existing one.
This is because if you go through the Arnil store, you will not be affected by the profiteering of the existing brewers and the aristocrats who manage the distribution.
Drinks that taste good are expensive.
This is because it is a welcome change for those who had to buy and drink only tasteless alcohol.
Of course, the aristocrats who sucked the honey expressed their regrets about it, but they had no choice but to put their complaints aside for fear of daring to offend Arel.
Complaints from brewers were also relatively low.
At first, they were worried that their work would be cut off after hearing the rumors.
It was the people dispatched from the Arnil Chamber that reassured them.
It takes a lot of manpower to sell in bulk.
Therefore, the Arnil Chamber of Commerce recruited brewers and small merchants to teach them how to brew, manage them, and instruct them to make mass-produced products.
In addition, brewers also had to admit it after tasting the alcohol developed by Arell.
Rather, he wanted to go under the Arnil Chamber and learn the technology.
The caravans objected to it, but what?
Since there was no way for the wine merchant to win over Arnil, he resigned and flattered them in order to help with distribution instead.
So, in an instant, the Ernesia Kingdom’s liquor distribution network became Arnil’s… The alcohol produced by Arell came to dominate the mainstream.
And before long, we officially started exporting to other countries.
At first, the nobles of other countries showed a questionable reaction, saying that the level of alcohol in the Ernesia Kingdom would be good.
However, the tongue and body are honest.
Those who obtained it and tasted it could not hold back their admiration.
Some kingdoms were reluctant to import alcohol for fear of excessive market dominance, but in the end, they could not go against the trend and had no choice but to accept trade.
The kingdoms that were previously strong in the liquor industry seemed to have tried to improve their products by wiping out brewers.
It is said that they did not achieve any results.
“It’s trending faster than I thought….
I called Uncle Richen and asked him about the current state of the liquor industry that he started selling.
Uncle Lichen was overjoyed and made a fuss about the business going well.
“Selling really fast!
Even though we recruited most of the brewers in the Kingdom of Ernesia to our side, the production is insufficient.”
“Is that enough?”
Expensive alcohol for the nobility…
High-quality items are brewed at a facility in Fahiliha.
Can not help it.
Most of the sake cannot be brewed without the facility here.
In order to skip the aging process in the shortest amount of time, this side’s advanced magic skills are required.
However, the problem is not that it cannot keep up with the quantity of high-end products, but that the quantity of mass-produced products is insufficient.
I expected it to be popular, of course.
Is it too fast though?
“Especially, the quantity exported to other countries is not normal hehehehehehehehehe. At first, I was reluctant to trade in other countries, but since it sells well, what can I do? Right now, we are requesting an increase in the quantity.”
Uncle Li-Chen proudly said the whole time, as if his business was going well.
“Um… what. First of all, it hasn’t been popular for a while, so it wins when sales soar.”
I tilted my head as I checked the documents he presented, predicting sales volume and future demand.
“…is this too much?”
The amount written on the paperwork was much more than I originally expected.
In particular, the speed of consumption is not normal.
let’s express
It is a rate of consumption that cannot come out unless you literally drink alcohol like water.
Demand within the Kingdom of Ernesia is at the level of a popular product, but the reaction from other countries is too enthusiastic.
“Too fast…
” “Yes? Isn’t it good to sell well?”
“that’s right. It’s good to sell well. yes that’s good Long live alcohol, long live money. Long live. ….but the problem comes next.”
“What does that mean?”
Uncle Richen, who noticed that my reaction was less than usual, and before he could raise any suspicions, I just turned my back.
I know you’re curious.
Won’t you teach me?
“…what happened.”
There’s something I’m worried about, but…
well, that’s not something to worry about right now.
I shook my head and started discussing the next thing.
