"Well, it's great that you got in safely, but you don't have any money in this world. ......

　I said I was going sightseeing, but I don't have enough money to do so.
　It's a great way to make money, but how do you make it?

It seems that Shirdi and his friends belong to a place called a guild. ......

　I don't know what it is, but I heard that adventurers earn money by accepting requests, and I wonder if I can sign up too.
　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.

The best thing I can do is to sell my peppers.

　I took out one pepper and tried to 'identify' it somehow.

I took out one pepper and tried to identify it. The quality of the pepper is better than the pepper from the other world, and the value of this bottle in the other world is about five gold coins. If you are negotiating at the merchant guild, it is advisable to start negotiating at about 15 gold coins and sell at around 5 to 10 gold coins.

The explanation was more detailed than I expected.

　And they even tell you the selling price!　Isn't that too good?
　I don't know about you, but my "identification" skill gave me more answers than I could have ever hoped for.
　I'm not sure how much this gold coin is worth in this world, but it's very helpful.
　I don't know how much these gold coins are worth in this world, but they're very useful, and there's a merchant guild where you can sell them.

"Okay, Knight, Akatsuki. Let's go to the Merchant's Guild!
"Wafu.
"Buhi.

　However, since I didn't know the first thing about this place, I called out to the soldiers at the castle gate and asked for directions.
　The soldier standing at the gate seemed to play a role similar to that of the police on earth, and he politely told me the way to go.
　As we followed the path he showed us, we saw a beautiful wooden building.
　I wondered vaguely if this was where the logistics of the town were based.
　As we entered, we were met with the same kind of stares that we had received when we had waited to enter the city.
　Feeling a little uncomfortable, we looked around and saw what looked like a reception desk, so we headed there.

"Excuse me.
"Yes, sir!　How may I help you?

　The woman at the reception desk looked at me as if she was surprised, and then immediately responded with a sales smile.

"Well, I actually have something for sale at .......
Excuse me, but you don't have a private business, do you?
Yes. I've never been to this town before, and I don't have any money on me, so I thought I'd just sell what I could.

　The receptionist nodded her head as if she understood my words.

The receptionist nodded her head in agreement. So, before you sell anything, you need to register with the merchant guild, is that okay?
Does it cost any money or cause any inconvenience?
No, there is no fee. If you belong to a guild, such as the merchants' guild or the adventurers' guild, you can get an ID card, and above all, each guild will offer you some benefits. However, those with bad behavior may be expelled from the guild, but basically, there is no inconvenience.

　I see, so there are no special disadvantages to registering with the guild.
　And I'm very grateful for the fact that I can get an ID card.
　Just go to .......

I'd like to register with the Adventurer's Guild as well, but I'm not sure if it's safe to register with two guilds.
"Don't worry about that either. A guild is an organization that exists in each country but is not interfered with by the country. Of course, since we have branches in each country, we have to abide by the laws of that country and cooperate with them in case of emergency, but we can prevent any unreasonable interference from the country.
Oh!

　I couldn't help but raise my voice, but the Guild is an amazing organization.
　In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at .......
　I'm not going to do anything wrong, but I'm a little scared.

Thank you for the explanation. Then may I ask you to register with the guild?
"Very well, sir. Then, please fill out this form.

　What he handed me was a strange piece of paper made of a different material than the paper I usually use.
　Also, the pen was a so-called quill pen. ...... Wait a minute, I've never used a quill before.
　What?　Should I dip it in this ink? ......?
　I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I'm sure it's a good idea.
　All I had to do was write my name and place of birth, but I had trouble with the name and place of birth.
　In the end, I wrote "Japan".

"It's done.
"Yes, ......, you must be Yuuya-sama. Is this place 'Japan' the name of a country?
Yes. It's a small island country in the east of .......

　That's on Earth, though.

I see, you are not from this continent, are you? Anyway, there seems to be no problem, so registration is complete. Here is your guild card.

　What he handed me was a plate made of what I thought was iron.
　There was a name and a star engraved on it.

The guild card has a star engraved on it, I think. The star indicates your rank within the guild, and those with one star are qualified as traveling merchants, but cannot open a formal store in the city. However, you can sell your goods through the merchant guild. If you want to have a stall, you need two stars, and if you want to have a store, you need three stars.
"How can I get more stars?
For the Adventurer's Guild, there is a clear rule. ...... For the Merchant's Guild, the number of stars increases with your contribution to the guild. If you own a stall or a store, a percentage of the sales goes to the merchant guild. And for those who have one star, the amount of money you sell or buy directly to us is converted into a contribution, so you can go up to three stars without thinking too hard.

　I see. ...... Well, I don't have a problem with being a traveling merchant, so I don't have to think about it too much.

In the event that you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
"Oh, yes.

　Then I took out a pepper from the item box.
　Then, for some reason, the receptionist's eyes widened in surprise.

"Oh, you have an 'item box' at .......
What?
What?　I'm so sorry!　It is very rare for a person to have an "item box" skill. ...... But being able to use an "item box" is a huge advantage for a merchant!　You are very fortunate as a merchant, Yuuya-sama!
"Oh, really?

　Oh my god.
　I'm not sure that the item box is such a rare skill. ......
　It's not that there aren't people who have it, but it's okay.
　As I was thinking about this, the receptionist looked at the pepper that was handed to me and said ----.

What ......?

　I was greatly surprised.
