There were many advantages to using horses
“Inded. Mr. Takumi’s idea would help to connect people and revitalize the villages. Even though it might not succeed.”
Well, if you could move safely as if it was a taxi or bus, many people would want to use it. And it would be useful for moving goods.
“While many people might use it if it was horses… In that case, you will have to think of ways to protect them while traveling.”
Fenrirs could double as guards.
And without guards, you could be attacked by monsters. It would be expensive to have insurance to cover the goods…
“As for that…Mr. Takumi. Across these lands and the whole country, there are patrolling soldiers that deal with monsters. The problem with post horses is that there will not always be soldiers in such places.”
“So you think we should make sure they overlap?”
“Yes. It might be hard to suddenly increase the number of soldiers, but if they are already patrolling, it would be easy. While we may still have to hire some more men, it will not be too much. And people will rest easy, knowing that the duke’s soldiers are protecting them.”
“As Lady Claire says, that way, it will also help with the stability of this land. While they are patrolling, they could increase the number of times they come, which will keep people safer. Of course, it would be best to test this with a small number first…”“Indeed. And if it doesn’t work well, we can make adjustments later.”
“Also, there is another advantage to this idea.”
“Something else?”
“Yes. If soldiers and civilians mingle more often, then it will be easier to acquire information. Of course, sometimes it will be rumors and stories with little reliability…”
Obviously, there was no internet in this world. So information spread by word of mouth.
“We also live separate from the people, and so do not hear as much. That was why the disease was able to spread in Ractos, and all the medicine was bought…”
Claire was still regretting that she was not able to realize what Barsler was doing earlier.
Of course, they were also moving in secret, so she may not have found out anyway… But had she heard rumors, she might have been able to investigate.
“In any case, we will have to consult the master about this later.”
“Yes. We cannot decide anything right now. Still…it will be a lot of work for Mr. Ekenhart.”
“My father will probably be happy. He likes to do new things. And it was Mr. Takumi’s idea…”
In any case, we would have to ask him about it. And there was much to consider regarding how likely it was. So we would leave it for now.
“Gurr…gurr.”
“Uh… He says he and the other fenrirs will think about it.”
“Oh? Feri. Are you enthusiastic about doing it then?”
“Gururur. Gur.”
Apparently, Feri had been thinking about it, while we were talking about horses.
It seemed he had a good idea of what would be expected, and as long as it would increase his opportunities to eat hamburgers, he was willing to think of it very positively.
Of course, he was the leader, and so it was not easy to decide that so many of them would leave the forest. And so he would go back for now…
Also, they may consider cooperating with other packs as well…
They sure were flexible…for the sake of hamburgers.
Feri meant to preach to the others, with the help of Fen and Riruru, about their deliciousness.
I had no idea if that would work. But if it did, we would have to make a lot of hamburgers…
