Well, why not?

I asked him with a certain amount of determination, but the grandfather's reply was lightly OK, and I felt like I had to shrug my shoulders because the permission I thought would be difficult to get came so easily.

But is it OK? If you start doing business, you're going to get attacked by a dragon or something...

Why would you do that? Oh, that's what the gatekeepers used to say.

Yes, my grandfather once told me that he lived near the Dragon Forest and the soldier who guarded the gate was worried about him. According to the story of that time, he was attacked for trying to use the dragon forest as a territory, but this time I thought it would be a problem this time too, since he would be using the land in a way.

Well, you already have a farm and an orphanage, but the old man and his grandmother are using it together, so I think it's safe to say that they are using it, but I was worried that the old man wouldn't have anything to do with it because he is planning to set up his stall at the front entrance of the dragon forest.

'Yes, I want to do the stall if I don't have to worry about being attacked. What we do will depend on who we're dealing with, though.

It's good, right? I'd like to see a tavern, too, if you could.

It's okay! Then I'd like to talk to everyone and get some things out of them, but why wouldn't I attack them? According to the townspeople, the merchants want to set up a stall near the dragon forest, but they can't because they don't know when they will be attacked. If it's at the edge of the forest, near the entrance, where even children can go, they don't have to worry about monsters, but if a dragon appears, they'll be in big trouble, they'll be too afraid to open their stall.

It's not that simple. It's natural to intercept an attacker with a weapon. Well, we all went too far that time...

Well, I mean, did it matter if you didn't have a weapon, lived normally, and built a town? No, you couldn't go to a place where dragons live without a weapon, as expected, so what did you have to do?

Anyway, it seems like you don't mind opening a normal stall, so let's talk to everyone. Someday some people might imitate us and set up a stall, but this one is endorsed by the old man, so let's do business in peace.

So, yes!

I set up a stall as soon as the next day. We'll find out what we sell and what we can sell as we go along. The stall itself is still in use, so we may improve it in the future.

When I thought about what we could sell in the Dragon Forest, the adventurer's group asked me about food, so I made hamburgers, sandwiches, or something with bread between the ingredients. Specifically, a cutlet sandwich or a steak burger, but I'm not sure if it's the right ingredients for the future.

Although they are not preserved food, they are easy to carry around and can be eaten while walking with one hand, so they sold more than expected. The newcomers were especially pleased with the meat and the good eating quality.

The newcomers were also pleased with the fact that we allowed them to buy or barter for the food. We traded a handful of firewood for a meal, and they brought a lot of it for us to pick up on our way back from the dragon forest.

I thought that only newcomers would use the stall, but surprisingly, the veterans were also very happy to see it. Of course the food, but the purchase of the goods was especially appreciated. You can't buy more than the market price, but when you get a large item that is hard to bring home, it is convenient to buy it, I guess. Thanks to this, we were able to increase the volume of our meals, and the newcomers should be grateful to us.
