Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 964: Trade deal (1)

There was an awkward smile that appeared on my face as I didn't know what to say, but the Merman Queen didn't hold back at all.

She just said with the same smile that didn't reach her eyes, "I think you should know what I want."

She had already heard the Merman King explaining the situation, so she knew that it would be possible to obtain more of this lube.

The Merman King also had an awkward look on his face at first, but then he quickly calmed down and revealed a serious look befitting of his position. He was the king of the Merman Empire, so of course he would be able to change his aura just like that.

I shook my head with a bitter smile seeing the two of them like this, but I still said, "Then let's go sit and discuss this."

They nodded in agreement before heading back to the main town.

During this, Klein and the others had come over to see what was happening.

They had been waiting for us the entire time since we were supposed to be heading back to our kingdom, but we never showed up.

When they came over, I waved at Klein and explained the situation to him before following the Merman King and Queen back.

When we arrived, I found that they had already had the maid prepare some snacks and tea, as if they were prepared for a long meeting. It seemed that they were very serious about obtaining this lube.

Once I sat down, the Merman Queen didn't hold back at all as she said, "What do you need to make this trade deal work? I'm very interested in this lube that you have."

I was surprised since I never thought that the Merman Empire would be this interested in it. However, thinking about what I saw, I could see the importance of this thing to the Merman Empire.

For the guards and soldiers, they would be able to use this lube to make themselves stronger. And as for the Merman Queen...I saw the terrifying look that was in her eyes.

I knew better than to get between a woman and her cosmetic products.

However, I really didn't know that the lube had this kind of moisturizing effect in the first place.

It seemed strange that the lube would have a moisturizing effect to begin with.

"This is a special effect that was brought out because of the combination of ingredients used to make the lube."

I was caught off guard by the explanation that the system suddenly offered, but seeing the additional information that was also given to me by the system, I understood what the system was talking about. At the same time, I had to say that I was impressed by the system's thoroughness.

There were scientific reports that studied the different interaction between the ingredients used to make the lube.

It seemed that the system had put in quite the effort to study it before releasing it.

But that didn't solve the problem that was at hand.

With a cough, I said, "Yes, but I have to state that without the ingredients needed, I won't be able to mass produce this product."

The Merman Queen gave a nod before saying with the same smile that didn't reach her eyes, "Yes, I am aware of this. So tell me, what ingredients do you need?"

I pulled out one of the pieces of the Glowing Seaweed that I had saved from last night before saying, "This is the only one that we can't get on land. Without this, it won't be possible to mass produce the lube. The problem is that we can't get this Glowing Seaweed where I've put my factory to mass produce this, so I can't do anything."

"We can take care of that." The Merman Queen said without any hesitation.

I was completely caught off guard hearing this, but it seemed like she didn't want to talk about this at all.

Instead, the Merman Queen continued pushing by saying, "We'll transport the goods that you need, all we need to know is if you're willing to trade the goods."

I was once again caught off guard when I heard this.

I never thought that the Merman Queen would actually offer to transport the Glowing Seaweed to our kingdom.

I didn't have to ask to know how they would do it since there was a river that was connected to

the ocean running through our kingdom. This was the river that Ariel took to arrive at our kingdom in the first place, which showed that it was certainly possible to come to our kingdom with that river.

It was just that I couldn't believe that she wanted this thing this much.

After thinking about it for a bit, I slowly gave a nod as I said, "As long as there is a supply of Glowing Seaweed, it should be possible for me to supply this lube."

The Merman Queen's face lit up when she heard this, but I quickly added, "However, you'll still need to trade for it."

The Merman King slightly knitted his brows when he heard this before asking, "We still need to pay even though we're supplying the ingredients?"

There was a bitter smile that appeared on my face as I said, "It's not the Glowing Seaweed alone that's needed to make this lube, there are other ingredients that are also used. Otherwise, you would have been able to make this lube all on your own, right?"

The Merman King and Queen looked at each other for a bit before turning back to nod in agreement.

That was fair.

The Merman Empire indeed had been trying to make new lubes and it wasn't as if they hadn't tested the Glowing Seaweed before. However, they had never been able to achieve the same effect, so there had to be other things added to the Glowing Seaweed.

As they were nodding, I added, "I also have to mention that the product mass produced will

be inferior to the one that you've already tested."

This time, the Merman King and Queen deeply knitted their brows.
