When Lisa sat next to Jani, her face flushed red and she wanted to say something but because it was still feeling awkward, Lisa could only lower her head and not dare to glance at Jani.
Looking at Lisa's reddened face, Jani simply smiled then casually picked up the tea on the table and offered it to Lisa "Lisa, drink this tea first."
"i'm not thirsty! Alex." he replied, rejecting Jani's offer.
""drink first, maybe you'll be more calm." Said Jani who was still holding the glass for Lisa to drink.
"alright, I'll drink it." Lisa resignedly drank her tea then as if she had drunk a magic potion, Lisa was surprised because after drinking the tea Lisa felt her heart was now calmer and she also felt she could say something she wanted to tell Jani.
"do you feel calmer?"
"have-it! I feel better now!" Lisa answered with her smiling lips.
"then can you explain your purpose for coming today?"
"actuallys…. I am currently angry with you!!"
"angry? But why is your face flushed like that?"
"who has his face flushed with shame!?"
"i don't talk like that."
still in her blushing face, Lisa immediately stood up and walked towards the door saying "already! I'm lazy to talk to you!"
Jani already knew that Lisa wanted to leave and she quickly hugged her from behind and said "alright, I'll stop teasing you. So, don't get mad again, okay!?"
"Hmph! Who would dare to be angry with the would-be crown prince of the kingdom who freely went to a dangerous place without thinking of the person who was worrying about him!?
"of course that person is my fiancee who will become the future queen!"
Lisa's face was once again flushed red but now she didn't look angry anymore.
Sensing that Lisa had become calmer, Jani slowly made her sit back, but now the two of them were sitting next to each other with Jani wrapping her hands around Lisa's waist.
Although Lisa enjoyed this warmth, she tried to resist it by saying "Alex!! I still haven't forgiven you!"
"then what should I do for you to forgive me?"
"i just want one thing that is; if you want to go to one place, you have to tell me first, Understand!?"
"i understand, dear."
"Hmph, that's better!" after being satisfied with the promise made by her lover, Lisa brought herself closer to Jani's embrace and re-enjoiced the warmth of being in her arms.
As the two of them were enjoying this atmosphere, Jani's room door was suddenly knocked by a servant who said "prince! The head of the Karolina merchant family wants to meet you!"
Hearing Karolina's surname, Jani immediately learned that the man must have wanted to talk about the temple and Jani replied calmly "well, I'll be there soon!"
Hearing Jani was about to go see a guest, Lisa immediately stood up and said "then I go first!"
"didn't you come with me?"
"no need, it's a political affair and I'm a little reluctant to know it."
"in that case, before you leave, can I ask for a kiss?"
Hearing Jani's request, Lisa's face immediately flushed red from embarrassment "what the hell, you pervert!!" but after that, Lisa immediately kisses Jani and escapes through the window using her wind elemental magic.
Seeing his fiancee in this world running away, Jani just laughed then said "so he's the shy type huh?"
After that, Jani took a document that was on his desk and went to meet the head of the Karolina family who was currently waiting in the Palace's living room.
Living room.
There were three people who came from the Karolina family, one bodyguard and two brothers who are currently leaders of the Karolina family. Although the Carolinas were not noble families, they were a well-known merchant family for a long time and still survive today.
Jani who had arrived in the living room was immediately greeted by two people from the Karolina family and when she sat in a chair, Jani immediately asked "we go straight to the point, What do you need with this prince?"
"previously I as the Father of Mary thanked the prince for giving my Princess confidence in such an important position."
"hey! Big brother, it's just a temporary department and at the latest in a year it will be disbanded because it's useless!" answer with the haughty brother of Marry's father.
"Barney! Keep your words in front of the prince!"
"For what! even the King must show us his respect! For a small government like this, they still depend on us to improve their economy and trade."
"oh! So it is! I understand now!"
What do you understand, prince?" tanya Barney responded to the sudden words from Jani.
"that's right."
"hmm, this is so dear that I must immediately take back control of the trade and immediately make my own trading caravan. Then after that, I can apply import and export taxes based on the unit and value of the goods themselves."
Hearing Jani's plan, Barney began to sweat coldly and in his heart he said 'This is bad! If the tax is applied, then inevitably we have to increase the selling price and other traders will definitely stop taking goods from my caravan on the grounds of this price increase!'
Barney tried to calm Jani's mood by saying "Prince, there is no need to rush to make such a decision. Because our caravan of Karolina can still be the best supplier of the country."
Looking at Barney's face that had started to break out in cold sweat, Jani laughed and said "haha! I seem to be in too much of a hurry. All right, we're back to our main topic."
Marry's father knew that before the Prince had only bullied his sister to let her realize that this place was the royal palace and she could also feel the murderous aura well hidden in this room.
In order for Barney to no longer mess up, Marry's father took the initiative to talk to the Prince who he thought still had other tactics that had not been shown.
"Prince, both of us have come here to ask about our ancestors."
Jani calmly said "when I went down the temple, I found a room with a human skeleton lying on the table writing something. As I read the writing, I finally realized that the skeleton was your ancestor."
"then does it mention his family or the inheritance he left for his descendants!?" asked Barney excitedly.
Marry's father, who saw his sister's behavior, could only pat her head while saying in his heart 'should have been from the beginning I didn't bring her here!'
"sadly not, but I found this book next to the body." Jani replied, who then pulled out a book with a cover that read 'For my family, Karolina!"
Marry's father took the book and stood up to say goodbye, but Jani instead said "why rush it? There's still a lot I want to tell you about, especially with Mr. Barney!"
"Huh! Me!?" Barney is surprised that the Prince is attracted to him and not to his older brother who is the current head of the family.
"of course, this is related to the noble house-making company you live in."
Barney who heard that, immediately felt happy because of his efforts in the lyrics by this important royal person, he said, but it was different from the view of Marry's father who felt suspicious about Jani's interest in his sister's business.
Jani and Barney chat a lot about the business that is run by Barney because the concept of the business itself is similar to the concept of contractor business on earth. Unbeknownst to the two brothers of the Karolina family, this place has actually been surrounded by royal knights and even their guards have been captured secretly.
After the two of them had quite a chat, Jani stood up and said "i didn't expect that you would be able to find business opportunities among the nobles so easily!"
"it's not easy, Prince! need a pretty good eavesdropping skills in search of business opportunities!"
"aha! You're right.you're right! By the way it looks like we should end our conversation and for the head of the Karolina family please go first because Mr. Barney still has to be here."
seeing Jani's gaze that began to turn serious, made Father Mary forced to leave this room alone while saying "Prince, Prince, please let my sister live even though I know that her crimes have earned her the death penalty, but at least grant her forgiveness for my family's service to this kingdom."
Jani replied calmly "i'll consider it."
After his brother left the room, Barney realized that the prince wanted something from him and then he asked "prince, what do you want from me?"
"information. and the complete floor plan of the manor house that was once your customer."
"but it's my customer's secret and I can't just pass it on!"
"oh! then, it means that we will be here longer because I want to ask about the construction of the road for Wind Eye city that is not going well, he said, even though we the royal side have already made a full payment for a total of 10,000 gold pieces?"
When Jani asked about the construction of the road for the town of Wind Eye, Barney's face began to break out in cold sweat and make excuses about it.
"it's because of the monster problem there that's hard to beat!"
seeing from his reaction, Jani knew that Barney must be lying because even though there are strong monsters in the forest near the town of Wind Eye, but they will not disturb humans unless they are disturbed first.
And from Jani's guess, the reason why the road is not finished is because the city leader of Wind Eye does not want to cooperate or the development funds have been misused. Although it was only a guess, but today was very lucky because Jani's guess was on target.
"if there really was a powerful Monster there, wouldn't the news have already spread in the capital? Or Mr Barney, are you tricking me?"
"no! Your majesty! I don't dare, though, but it was true that there was a powerful monster making a nest near the city and the reason the news was not spread was probably because the nobles in the city had kept it a secret from the ordinary residents."
Jani thought the same thing, then he said to Barney "well, I believe in you, but I still want to see all the nobles who have worked with you."
"i understand the prince. I'll get the list ready soon." Barney slowly stood up and planned to leave the room.
Before Barney left the room Jani said in a serious tone to him "Master Barney! What I said earlier is a plan for the future and if you're still willing maybe we can work together on a lot of things."
Hearing Jani's words, Barney smiled and replied "i'm waiting for the good news, Prince!"
After Barney left, Jani said to herself "haizz…. Why are there so many corrupt nobles in the world? That just adds to my work!"
When Jani complains suddenly the system panel appears and gives the mission to Jani.
