You're really telling me she's the first on in this world to invent a sack truck? It's not exactly a huge technological leap. Heck, it's even simpler than a regular cart

That’s what it’s called? Cuz i never saw one so I’m equally as amused by it. I’ve never seen a trolley that can convert into a backpack.
But when i search “sack cart”, i ended up with the full length, steel tube version? I r confuse.

They look at a prototype and first thing coming to mind is: "Oy, ye got a patent fo' that?"

That one adventurer saying he could carry an orc home if only he too had a tiny cart... 
The whole patent system isn't perfect in modern times with people stealing/disregarding IP and the author wants us to think Ren is getting rich from distant countries using her ideas?

Large chalkboards like that used to be split into sections. Well, some of them.
If you have a cart like that you don't want the outer lower beam to be across. It's likely to twist off if you're not careful to stop it before you stand it down.
Just a box with wheels and a handle is a bit on the old side when it comes to inventions. We're talking thousands of years BC. The sack truck or whatever you call it is significantly more modern and would make sense as a new invention here.
If it's harder but heavier, I wonder if using less of it to the point it has the same weight would make it more or less durable than mythril. If it isn't more durable at that point, you can just use more mythril instead.

What were they using the wheel for? IRL, the development of two-wheeled carts (hand~ or horse~) was literally the driving force behind making better wheels. They got spoked wheels around the mediterranean in the bronze age; solid wood wheels even predate the bronze age.
The only other historical use for wheels is four-wheeled carts (significantly harder to make) and potters wheels, but we haven't seen a single potter so far.
Author is baked as always.

Decoration, mostly, or for toys. Early Mesoamericans knew what wheels were, they just never used them for vehicles. The terrain wasn't suitable. They had good road systems, but this involved suspension bridges, and stairs going up steep slopes. It's too much of a pain to get a big cart through such a transportation network. Decorative discs have been found, and I know of at least one toy coyote with little wheels, so it's not like the technology wasn't there. It was just unused to its full potential. I don't think that they used wheels for pottery or weaving, either.
Yes, that is true; but the geography in this manga seems to be based on Eurasia, so there should be plenty of suitable terrain.
I'm not question history, I'm questioning the shoddy worldbuilding of the author.

It's likely carts exist, just not carts you can carry on your back as well.
Smaller hand-pulled carts might also be very rare. The easy solution is to make something carried by a horse, which is inherently big, for something transported by people, if you already have the image of a big, heavy cart, you'd think about bags instead. The middle ground is always something that takes longer for someone to question. It's not fresh per-say, but it's just easy to forget about.
People are way more curious than you'd typically expect, but while I might have questioned people's curiosity a few months ago, ever since I bring a cart to do my grocery shopping, not a single time has someone not asked me where I bought it and commented this is more practical that whatever they're doing. Small reminder that in a lot of developed countries people still use bags to transport their groceries on foot, and cars for longer trips. Most people still don't use carts.
Sometimes even things that seem obvious aren't even obvious in our current world. It's like how simple the printing press is a concept, 'just make a template bruh' wasn't a thought in the minds of the people that copied books by hand for over a thousand years. Hindsight is 20/20.
