Kapitel 11: Sasha Company(2)
The materials that were used before were already kept by Edgar's guards. They were cautious about keeping oil production a secret. Everyone was excited to follow Edgar to the kitchen. A clay pot was floating behind them.
Albert was very excited. He was looking at the pot as if it were filled with gold. He believed that everything the prince said was true! He could already see that gold will rain in the kingdom because of cooking oil. The kingdom's treasury will be filled, and many problems will be solved.
Everyone arrived in the kitchen. Edgar ordered the guard to place the clay pot near the stove. There was a hole in the center of the stove. Fire stones were placed in the center. They were mined near volcanoes. They will become hot when they make contact with fire and retain heat for a period of time. More firestones will result in higher heat. Fire stones were used for cooking and smithing.
Edgar prepared the food. He put salt on fish, pork, and chicken. He ordered the cook to cut vegetables and pork into small pieces. He prepared three stoves and cast fire magic. He put three iron pots on stoves and waited for them to heat. He explained to them that an iron pot was used for frying. He put oil in the iron pot and waited for it to boil. He started frying fish, pork, chicken legs, and wings. There was a delicious aroma that spread in the kitchen causing sounds of hunger to appear. Everyone did not feel embarrassed, except Elena. Her face and ears turned red from embarrassment, which made Edgar laugh.
Edgar served the food after frying. Steaming golden fried fish, chicken, and pork are put in front of everyone including the fried vegetables with pork. They looked so delicious, which further stimulated their hunger."Come and try what fried food taste like."
Everyone immediately grabbed food from the table, afraid that nothing would be left for them if they waited longer. Everyone enjoyed the food. The taste was new, and it was delicious.
"How is it?" asked Edgar. He also tried it. For him, it was more delicious than fried foods on Earth. Livestock in Aurora were not fed with chemicals, and they were exposed to rich life energy in the world.
"Ywour hwighness! Its hwelicious!" Albert's words were incomprehensible. His mouth was still stuffed with food while holding chicken legs. Everyone said the same.
Edgar let them finish eating and went to the study room with Elena and Albert.
"Your highness, cooking oil is definitely a big business!" Albert did not expect that oil could cook delicious food. Oil was made from cheap beans, so the profit will be very huge.
"Buy soybeans in the whole kingdom. Sell oil to huge business owners. Demonstrate how to use cooking oil. Ask the blacksmith to teach smithing iron pot to smithing owners. We will sell oil in bulk called wholesale. In each city or region, you should choose only one business owner to avoid competition. Once they are sold, buy more soybeans and food in neighboring kingdoms. Fill the treasury and spend money where it is needed, like replacing worn-out weapons of the army," said Edgar.
"Yes, your highness!" Albert received so many surprises from Edgar. The prince suddenly became so wise. He really thought that the prince pretended to be stupid and lazy to avoid the attention of the enemy.
"Elena, make a contract with pottery makers to order large clay pots for oil. Loan them money with zero interest if necessary to expand their production. We do not need to own every material in the production of oil. Let the people of the kingdom ride together with our business empire and enrich themselves. The larger our business, more of our people will be hired. Business will bloom everywhere when many people have more income. Business tax will surpass agricultural tax in the future.
The business will be called Sasha Company. Later, we will mark each item sold by our business. The mark is a little girl in a cook uniform. Little girl Sasha is just a product of my imagination. I chose it as our mark because it feels closer to home. The mark will differentiate us from the same line of business in the future. It is called branding. Look for people that are capable of managing a business. I will talk with them and choose the right manager. Do a background check to make sure that they can be trusted." Edgar was looking forward to the economic effect of his business.
Elena had just realized that the prince was very wise. Edgar suddenly became so tall in her eyes. He became so dependable, which made her heart flutter.
Elena asked questions about what she did not understand, and Edgar patiently explained.
Edgar appreciated the little maid's attentiveness to details."Albert, did you find the person that I told you about yesterday?"
"He will arrive tomorrow, your highness," Albert was looking forward to another surprise that the prince might give.
Edgar looked at Elena,"Call the captain of the royal guard here."
"Yes, your highness."
Albert thought that the prince was making a move that required royal guards, and he needed to cooperate. He felt nervous but he believed that the prince was not reckless, based on the wisdom that he had shown him since yesterday. "Your highness, why do you need a captain of the royal guard?"
Edgar's face looked serious.
"Time to kill the pest that terrorizes the kingdom. I will sweep the bandits!"
