☀️ Arselia and Akonia

- You say one thing, but in reality, it's the opposite - lately, everyone wants custom-made equipment specifically for them; a "simple sword" and a "regular armor" hardly interest anyone anymore.

—Well, it seems the residents of the capital have become so complacent that... —"it's time to write to Draco to have them all expropriated," he thought to himself, —...something is wrong with the economy. —he says aloud. —Hmm, let me think... First, we need to re-examine the records of the old "Abundance." Which of the items from previous months are already being sold in other establishments, and which still have an untapped niche? Let's compile a list of these and check for existing supply contracts. If you wish, we can go through the documentation together. Second, we need to find buyers for the current assortment. You say that everyone wants custom-made equipment, but meanwhile, the average hourly wage in the workshops hasn't increased much. How many educational, medical, police, and military institutions are there in the city? No one will buy items from Nora or Crag for budget employees, and besides you, I don't see any competitors for government contracts. Have you tried consulting with the administration in this regard? I think there might be a goldmine here. And third, regarding new products... We should probably go around and ask the workers. For example, in Calcite, everyone has amulets in their slots that provide single-point protection against attacks, spells, and other things. It's actually a useful item, especially in case of unforeseen situations. What else... If you have a blacksmith or any other craftsman in mind, you can try to occupy the mid-tier item niche, which is currently vacant. But this needs to be considered on a case-by-case basis. And... protect your contracts for precious gems. You never know when the government will need to buy them in large quantities...
