The Martial Unity

"You're telling me that we have to become businessmen?" Kane frowned so hard that Rui burst out laughing.

"You don't have to do anything, I'll handle it," Rui assured. "But yes, we're going to have to become businessmen. Specifically, I want to set up a nationwide supplier that can sell the esoteric harvests that we get from the Shionel Dungeon to the industries and sectors that require a supply of the esoteric resources of the Shionel Dungeon."

"Isn't that going to be extremely burdensome and tiring?" Kane groaned. "How on Earth are you planning on doing all of that by yourself? You have to manage all of the things that chairmen and presidents have to manage which is very much a full-time job! Isn't it better to just get a singular patron?"

Rui shook his head. "Patronage gives patrons some degree of control over the actions of those they are patroning. I do not wish to sell that right to others. What I want is a simple and effective way to distribute the plunder and harvest we get without empowering any one particular section of the consumer market."

"And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" Kane asked with an exasperated expression.

"Don't worry about it, I have a pretty good plan in mind," Rui smirked.

"Alright, I'll leave all of it to you. I honestly have no idea what you're talking about at the moment," Kane sighed. "So what is the next step that also involves me?"

"Get some good sleep, then tomorrow, we'll head to the Adventurer ring town," Rui replied.

The two of them were currently quite far from the dungeon, which was on the other side of the country. The Shionel Merchant Guild had redrawn maps to accommodate the creation of an 'Adventurer town' that accommodated all of the matters directly related to the dungeon itself. The Adventurer Ring town was a ring-shaped town that circled the perimeter of the Shionel Dungeon. Thus, if one wanted to enter the Shionel Dungeon, one needed to go through the Adventurer Ring town.

That was the plan for now.
