Mr. Barb is feeling better, and he says that he heard that many things had happened in the past few days, and that they have to start again. He thinks that they can at least have a foothold on the kingdom now, since they have been in peace with the north for many years. He wonders if the northern region still wants to cooperate with the south, and wonders if he still has prejudice and obstacles. He says that they need to start with the princess of pearl spring, because she seems to have a "gentle and firm power" . She is a "real princess" , and making money would not be a good thing for the chamber of commerce. She sends him a bunch of flowers, which he says are beautiful. He asks why she didn't attend the meeting today, and she says that she knew it. She asks why he doesn't want to continue their relationship
