We talked about management in regards to the medicinal herbs
As for the digging I cared most about Leo and Liza having fun, and so I would not stop them.
Besides, there were few opportunities for them to relieve stress like this. And they would not be able to dig so freely once we started with the planting.
…But perhaps there would be other places.
“Now then, we should discuss the management of harvested herbs, as well as transportation and selling…”
Said Sebastian, as we sat down with Mr. Hannes and the others.
Though, Claire and I would mostly just be listening for now.
Obviously, they would be separated once harvested. But they would need a place to be stored and turned into medicine.
Right now, we only had Ramogi, which would be mixed with the wine, but we meant to sell other kinds of herbs later. And so a proper place to make the medicine had to be built.
I had imagined something like a small hut, but the others would probably want to prepare a larger building… Well, that was fine, since we also needed storage space as well.Milina would probably be in charge of concocting…
Nick could be in charge of transportation to Ractos. But we would probably sell them in more places than just Mr. Kalis’s store.
As they were talking as if there would be a great quantity of herbs, I was reminded of how much work it would all be.
That being said, the herbs grew at such an alarming speed at the mansion. So in the end, it was really just a matter of using Weed Cultivation.
“Hmmm… What do you think…?”
“Yes… In any case, we must search for people once we return to the mansion. People who know about the lands around Ractos and Range village would be best. Also, the other lands as well.”
“Yes, certainly. We will recruit from surrounding villages and gather those who are good with geography.”
“Thank you.”
Transportation was one of the more difficult matters.
Of course, much of it would involve wagons.
Claire would be quite busy, and could not go every time. And I had to make herbs, and could not leave Range village for so many days.
If Nick was in charge of products going to Ractos, then we needed others to make deliveries to the other towns and villages.
Most people here lived in a small area and rarely traveled. And so it might be difficult to find the right personnel for the job.
“But there is no need to rush, as the fields have not been planted yet. We haven’t even secured buyers yet. In any case, we will have to communicate regularly with you, Mr. Hannes, and share information.”
“Yes. Of course. I will also be on the lookout. Though, we rarely see new people here.”
“The important thing now is to widen the market… Ractos is fine, but other villages are not used to having a steady supply of cheap herbs.”
“Indeed. They would either gather the herbs themselves, or go out to buy them.”
“Gathering herbs or leaving to other villages is such a hassle. And so they should sell well if we can supply them with it.”
There were hardly any medicine stores in the smaller villages.
And since they tended to be so busy, in most cases, they resorted to going out and picking the herbs themselves.
As for the herbs that had been transformed into an ideal state, most could be saved. And so it would be useful to have them in stock for emergencies.
It was the same with the medicine. Since they lasted a long time… Of course, I suggested that they not be sold for too high a price. Either comparable to other stores or even cheaper.
That way, they would not have to travel to other towns and villages, or spend too much money.
As Mr. Hannes knew what it was like, he was very happy and agreed with this suggestion.
It meant lower profits, but we would still sell enough so that we weren’t losing money. And so Sebastian gave his approval as well.
At the same time, he muttered something about hurrying up and calling my butler from the main house, so that he could help to manage these matters…
