84 spending money




In the end, securing the artisans was easy. With the exception of those who had an aversion to the beastmen, all those who were willing to emigrate were given the power of the king's letter and the bait of immediate money and work, and they readily agreed to go to the city of the beastmen. The breakdown is as follows

Forgers -> 6 -> 8 (plus 11 family members)
Leatherworkers -> 2 people -> 3 people (+4 family members)
Carpenters → 8 planned → 9 (+ 16 family members)
Dressmaker → 14 → 0
Cooks -> 4 -> 2 (+9 family members)
1 knight (Wayne)

Two of the leatherworkers were women, and the two cooks were both widows with children who worked as food stalls and worked hard to support their children.
The reason why none of the dressmakers were left was because they were repulsed by the beasts and gave up on them due to their pride and the ever-increasing prices they were selling for. In this world, most people mend their own clothes, and most of the clothes they buy are either second-hand or custom-made.
They are given a deposit and some of their future wages in advance, and are asked to secure the necessary supplies for their migration. The young man was excited about the amount of money suddenly given to him, but he was sincerely convinced of what would happen if he used the money in a stupid way.



"Well, I'm going to go wander around the city and do some shopping. I'm going to go shopping.

"Well, I'm going to go shopping in the city.

"Wow... it's been a long time since I've done any personal shopping... I feel like I'm nostalgic even though the streets and the products on display are different. It's been a while.

It's been a while since I've had any private time. I've never had a private time in a long time. It seems like I'm quite free, but I don't have a personal space like I do in Japan, so I never feel private.

"Oh, soybeans... I knew it! How much of this do you have, old man? ...No, give me all of it! That's sansho! Where do you get it? Is it around there? Really? There's pepper too! Here, take everything out, take everything out!

And just like this, he took advantage of the fact that there was an item box and bought everything. As a result of Masaru's generous purchases, the market's selection was greatly skewed for a few days, and the shopkeepers were scolded by all parties concerned.





In a room in the castle with Zarg: ....

So, Masaru... what did you buy at the festival?

"Well I bought all the soybeans I could find, some spices, liquor, nails, soap, vegetables, flower seeds, and some animals. Some animals.

What kind of animals did you buy? What kind of animals did you buy?" "You're not thinking of anything crazy, are you?

"Four windcocked quail and four horned rabbits. Four wind quail and four horned rabbits.

They're both demons! What are you going to do with them?

Of course we're going to keep them, right? A windup quail lays two or three eggs every three days, you know? They're also edible and delicious. The horned rabbit is not very big and not very strong, and it lays about 10 kids a year, and it's still delicious! I guess we'll have to go into animal husbandry, huh?

As long as you take care of the safety of the animals, they are surprisingly vigorous and do not require much work. I believe that if we could raise them in a stress-free environment like in Japan, paying attention to their food, it would be a surprisingly good industry. Quails are omnivores, eating insects, seeds and grains, and rabbits are said to eat weeds around the area, so I am expecting a new wind to blow in the diet dependent on monitor lizards.

I'm not going to tell Masaru about this, but I'm going to report it to the king because I'm on watch...no problem, right?

"Yeah, I know I'm supposed to be on watch and I know I'm supposed to report to the king, so no problem there. I think you should just tell them that you're a little out of control to enrich your own diet, okay? Also, tell them that the price of alcohol might go up a bit. "How much did you buy?

How much did you buy... the price of alcohol could go up by a lot.

Oh, I've got a lot of cheap stuff, about 50 for a barrel and 100 for a bottle... If I buy ore, my money could be in serious trouble. ....

I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm not sure what to do.

It's not to be underestimated that the rewards for defeating monsters and demons are just the price of selling materials. The reward should be enough to cover all the costs. If the reward is too small, there will be no one who will risk their lives to fight against powerful monsters and monsters. That would be a serious problem in terms of maintaining the nation.

We've bought a lot of wheat for the country's storage and all of your father's products, right? Do you know... your father's debt was about your lifetime income? That's based on the calculation that he became a cavalry captain within five years. I don't know.

I'm not sure if that's why he used so much money to pay off his debts, but how do you know my salary?

"Well, it's because Wayne told me. You're going to hire him, so you need to know a lot about him to be able to negotiate. We're almost the same age and the salary won't be that much different, right? Then the math is simple. I'd rather have that much debt.

"I'm surprised he could get by with just that product if he had that much debt.... "All that was left was two gold coins.

The only things left are two gold coins and a silver coin. I'm sure your sister is dying to know what happened to you.

"Well, that's just the way it's always been... and gold is still a lot of money. Gold is still a lot of money.

I'm sure she'll spend all her money on getting ready to emigrate and won't be able to afford to get married, so I'm sure her sweet brother and fiancé will provide her with a nice bridal gown and wedding gown. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

The look on his face says he hadn't thought of that, and he freezes, and just as he starts to move, Zarg runs outside.

I'm going to Wayne's! I have something important to discuss!

On his back, he said.

I'm going to go to Wayne's!

I had no choice but to tell him.

I'm sure there's a lot of money in there, and I've already given you some money to prepare for it, but if you don't realize that and start talking about it, you're going to have to celebrate. .... I'm sorry.

I'm sure you'll find it very easy to handle, Zag.
