State assessment
(Got out of bed)
"First I would like to go to the library and look for a book to study craft magic"
"After all, I don't know how many units of energy are needed for one silver bar."
"Okay, I'll go to the library and start searching,-Katsuya said to himself confidently."
(2 hours have passed)
"Hooray, I finally found her!"
"So now all that's left is to find the chapter that talks about the creation of metals"
(after 5 minutes)
"And here she is"
"So one copper ingot fifty units of energy, an iron ingot one hundred units of energy, a silver ingot two hundred units of energy, a gold ingot five hundred units of energy"
"So wait a minute, if I can create metals, then I can create oil."
"The book doesn't say anything about oil, but it's clear that no one knows about it and doesn't understand why it's needed."
“But thanks to my knowledge from another world, I can use this oil,” Katsuya said with a smile."
"Okay, I need to try making a metal ingot."
.
.
.
-It worked! Hurray!!!
"Oh my stock has increased by 100 units"
"Well of course, if you do something new, then your stock increases by as much as you spent on new metal."
"So it turns out the brothers will arrive in the evening"
"Okay, maybe I should try asking my dad for permission to go for a walk?"
"By the way, the castle I am in now is located in the capital of this kingdom and the city is called Rivlawn"
"The capital is located on the Alnagora River"
"There are fields and forests around."
"Great place for the capital"
"There are many villages on the outskirts of the city."
"In the Middle Ages, when cities were taken by blockade, the city was almost immediately surrendered, and all because the ancient cities were built up only with houses"
"There was no room for vegetable gardens or livestock."
"Therefore, villages that were located near such cities were obliged to give or sell provisions to the city."
"And if a siege occurred, the cities were almost immediately surrendered due to a lack of food."
"I also learned that the capital has a population of one hundred thousand people, and thirty thousand people live in the surrounding area."
"Okay, it's time to go and ask my father for permission."

-Robert, do you understand that if you are recognized, you can be kidnapped or even killed?
-Yes, I understand, so I decided that I would just dress up as a commoner and walk around the city.
-Good idea, but I'll still give you security that will follow you unnoticed.
-Ok thanks father
-goodbye-said Katsuya
-bye-said Father

"Finally I am free"
"In my plans I want to walk around the city to see what goods are abundant and what are few, I also want to look at the prices of these goods and later I want to go outside the city and see what is grown in our fields"
.
.
.
"I walked around the city, looked at the prices and quantity of goods and realized that in our city the cheapest food is potatoes and the most expensive is foreign fruits or sweets"
"In the city I saw quite a lot of blacksmith buildings and I also saw that in our city they sell quite a lot of clothes"
"I can only find out more from the Minister of Finance."
"In the fields outside the city they grow mostly potatoes, cotton, and wheat with rye."
"That's all I could find out, I think I need to go home and ask the finance minister for details."
.

-Hello dear Minister of Finance please tell us about our country-said Katsuya
-Well I'll tell you Prince Robert-Minister Finance
-Our state mainly earns money from the sale of natural resources and the cultivation of cotton and potatoes.-The Minister of Finance tells us
-In the south of our country they breed cattle, in the north they mine minerals, and in the middle they simply grow useful vegetation.
-The population of our country is seven hundred and fifty thousand people.
-There are 5 major cities in our country, such as: New-Flidor, Rivlon, Flidor, Begon and Sangorid
-In the capital live two hundred thousand people, in Flidor ninety thousand, in the New-Flidor live fifty hunded in Sangorida one hundred thousand people live and in Begon only sixty thousand people live.
-Our problems are that we have bad relations with our neighbors, low literacy levels, and a shortage of meat and fruit.
-Also, the villages of our kingdom are often attacked by monsters and destroyed, and recently they even almost captured the city of New Flidor.
-In general, things are not so good with our army either.
-And the income exceeds the expenses by thirty thousand gold coins.
-That's all for now, Prince Robert.
