"Great Prince, take a look. Here's our brand new project list. See if there's anything else the Imperial Capital might need?"
"Great Prince, look, this is our Silverpeak Domain's Alchemy Industrial Park, a newly developed alchemy park perfectly in line with the high-tech developments of the Imperial Capital. Do you think we could get a little more funding..."
"This way, Great Prince..."
Knowing that Carlos had brought along the funding approval authority, Ian's attitude suddenly became warm, even making Carlos a bit uncomfortable: "Silver Peak Earl, hold back a bit... Your Silverpeak Domain isn't exactly short on money, is it? The Western Corps Flint Group's military orders, and the beverages selling next door to the Imperial Capital... Your domain ranks in the upper-middle among all the earldoms, and it has tremendous future potential!"
"There's never enough money."
Upon mentioning this, Ian couldn't help but sigh deeply.
This was not a guise, but a fact.
