"Setting up a chemical plant as a joint venture with the Duchy… Is this really a good idea?"
Thor, who was beside her, turned around with an incredulous look in his eyes. It was incredibly rare for Freya, normally a staunch supporter of the ruling official, to question the official's decisions.
Ignoring Thor's surprise, Freya continued:
"Nowadays, under the syndicate's management, agriculture is completely ecological, and the demand for fertilizers and pesticides is no longer as high as before. Even if it's to reduce environmental protection costs and labor costs, as well as to be able to produce explosives and poison gas during wartime to increase logistical support, there's no need to cooperate with the Duchy, is there?"
She emphasized the word "cooperate," and anyone could hear that this was the root of her dissatisfaction.
