"Please wait here for a moment, Count Brandelis will be with you shortly." A maid led Schopenhauer and Weasley to a reception room and served them tea and snacks.
The two sat down on the sofa, looking somewhat reserved.
However, the red tea and snacks provided by the maid quickly made them a bit more relaxed.
In the Empire's homeland, supplies had already fallen into a state of scarcity, and even people like Schopenhauer and Weasley hadn't had the chance to drink red tea for quite some time, let alone eat other snacks.
The tea leaves in the Empire's homeland all had to be imported from the Eastern Colonies. Now that sea shipping had almost completely ceased, even if the Empire could continue to maintain contact with the colonies using Flying Airships and engage in a certain amount of trade, they would prioritize carrying vital and precious goods, making it impossible to spare valuable transportation capacity for luxury items like tea leaves.
