Iron and Intentions (2)

After talking with Raleigh, who had briefly visited England, I tried to somehow accept the current situation.

It's a good thing, right? Even by 21st century Japanese ethical standards, there's nothing to criticize.

...No, I take that back. 21st century Japanese ethics certainly wouldn't condone piracy.

Let's just say it's good and move on. There are many other issues to worry about.

"Walter, please tell me about the next matter."

"Her Majesty has sent 50 blacksmiths and 50 miners. She wants to build ironworks here."

"What?"

"...I wanted to tell her that there isn't even an iron mine here. Because we've already brought so many iron products from our side."

"..."

Well, it doesn't make sense.

We've taken aluminum foil and needle syringes to London, but we don't even have an iron mine here?
