Gawain did not lay out too much groundwork; once the conversation naturally progressed to the economic and trade realm, he straightforwardly put forth his proposal—in this regard, he believed that excessive obfuscation and guidance would seem deliberate, making it appear that he had too many ulterior motives behind the trade proposal. Based on his current impressions of Emperor Rosetta Augustus, he thought the other party would prefer this direct form of communication.
Emperor Rosetta indeed showed a hint of interest—of course, this expression wasn't very obvious on his otherwise stoic face: "Trade... I've indeed thought about such matters. Typhon and Anzu are neighboring countries, each with unique outputs; ideally, they should complement each other. I once considered opening a trade route between the two nations, but didn't get the chance to implement this idea."
