The day after they kicked Nestor out, the adventurers arrived safely in Pioneering Village. As I expected, they were my cauldrons. Take over lightly, my assignment is over.

Rudy seemed to regret saying, "Could you stay? I've said," but politely declined. I did my best to get this over with anyway, so I'll let you go home as soon as possible.

After the mission was completed, it took several days to thoroughly eradicate the surrounding demons. I missed the Boer and the Rabbit, which will be food, but no more other demons. The area around Pioneering Village is very safe. Adventurers have less work to do, but I want you to do your best to pioneer for it.

It's a monster I hunted, but I was going to sell it all together, so I still have it on hand. Not good freshness but not so damaged because it's cooled in the ice room. I'm going to sell this today.

We all came to the Adventurer Alliance, aiming for the free noon. If I have a good job, I wonder if I can finally take it.

The counter clerk is still Mr. Elysia today. You've been watching us and you've been cheering us up.

"Mr. Coe, it's been a while!

Speaking of which, you haven't had a face in a while.

"Long time no see. It's a buy, okay?

"Of course!

Mr Elysia replied with a smile. I put a magic bag with demons on the counter.

"Please. It's a little much today."

It's a hassle to arrange the monsters I've hunted, so I've decided to pack them in a magic bag and give them to them. More today than usual, full of three magic bags.

"Also, it's a lot more massive..."

"Oh, I've been hunting a lot in Pioneering Village"

"I see...... Then I'm convinced. Then we'll assess it."

I don't count because it's a hassle to count. With the bear, the goblin, the wolf... what was left? Anyway, it's massive. I leave counting to the Adventurer Guild.

Wait a while in the idle guild. I confirmed the request while I waited... but there was no request that seemed interesting. Too bad.

"I wish it had been a crusade request"

"If you leave so often in the Wang capital, your country will perish..."

Claire says with a smile on her face.

Crusade requests can only be made if they are dangerous and involve urgency. If there was a massive outbreak in the Wang capital around the center of the national territory, what would happen to the border? That's the story. Is it impossible to do less?

Give up the request and wait for the assessment. The back of the guild is a little noisy. Apparently, he's working hard on his guild outing. It's a lot......

Tens of minutes to wait, Mr. Elysia is back.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Now that we have assessed one magic bag, we will pay for it."

600 gold coins for one magic bag. I received it in cash. It should be huge but the gold coins are in the magic bag so I don't feel the weight.

Here are two more bags... Not all of the contents of the magic bag will be the same amount, but this assessment is likely to exceed 1,000 pieces of gold at leisure. It was an inexpensive mission, but it was quite profitable.

It should have been a penalty to me originally, but you haven't been punished for anything. I would have appreciated it.... No, was the elimination of Nestor a little cumbersome? If you think you've made so much money from it, it's a cheap struggle.

Two more bags to assess. It seemed like I still had to wait over an hour because it was enough to assess a bag.

"Thanks. Sounds like it's gonna take a lot of time."

"That's all there is to it..."

Wow, I'm kind of sorry. I sold it all at once because it rots when I leave it, but I'm a little worried about the price collapse.

"Wouldn't you sell so much and the price would go down or something?

"Don't worry. There's a lot of trade with Mirzia now, and that's not enough."

"I see. Then you'll be fine."

Elysia tells me that Auga leather is particularly popular. Mirzia is hot, so they don't have that much fur popularity. Even so, there seems to be a lot of demand in Milgia because there are few demons that can take leather.

If I had the skinless technology... I'd wholesale it directly to Mirzia. Well, it's not good without it. Do what you can.

"Now I'm going to continue my assessment. Excuse me, please wait a while longer"

Are you going to keep waiting here... It's a bit of a waste of time. Let's get some other business done first.

"Bad, it's coming out a little. I'll come back later, so keep the assessment going."

"Okay. Responsible, we will keep you."

Mr. Elysia, saying so, went back to the back of the guild.

We have plenty of time. Turn to everyone and speak up.

"Looks like it's still going to take a while, so I'm going to keep my face on the royal castle"

"Okay. Let's go."

Actually, the king is calling. I'm usually about to put it behind me, but things are a little different today. I'm sure the king is wasting his estate on remorse. I definitely want to go check it out.

Transferred to the usual room in the royal castle. The king is not here now because he is at work for once. Wait slowly and generously until the king's work is done.

While he was appropriately lenient, the king came into the room. Say hello gently.

"Hi. Long time no see"

The king immediately answers in the guise of tranquillity, with a slight face for a moment.

"... um. Well done."

Blue bars appear on the forehead of the king, who says so and lowers his hips on the couch.

Yes, this is it. This is what I wanted to see.

"Why were you summoned today?

I know it's about Nestor anyway, but I'll pretend I haven't noticed.

"Thank you for introducing a very competent person"

The king says as he pulls his face apart. You don't like it? Then I have to give it back to you with that intention.

"No, no, I can't thank you enough. Until I did what I deserved."

The King's blue muscles are growing well. Sounds a lot more frustrating.

"Hmm. But didn't that guy have an important role in the pioneering village?

The king's feet are trembling in small pieces. I guess my frustration is reaching its climax.

"Don't worry about it. He wasn't much use to me originally. I've left it to a better guy."

"You don't have a problem, do you? Were there any revolts from the pioneers?

"I really don't worry about that. Everybody's happy for you."

When I said that, the king smashed his tongue and held his head.

"Right. Understood. I've had a hard time electing a bookkeeper, so it's true that I helped..."

The king says with his eyes turned away. Is that a surrender pose? It's been a long time since we won.

But the job given to Nestor, I guess, was a super unpopular job. It looks like it's in a carriage all year, so I can't help but be unpopular.

"I'm more than happy for you. Is that all for today?

That's it for me. I just wanted to see the king's repentant face. I've had enough fun, so I want to go home now.

"No, not yet. It's about the lord I told you about, is there any change of heart?

That? You eliminated Nestor, so you shouldn't have to push him on me anymore, would you? The answer is no, of course.

"That's no different. I'm not motivated to be a lord."

"Is it... I need to talk to you. Can you listen to me?"

"Consultation? The king?

Consultation is not what the king calls a line.

"No, it's a consultation as a friend. Can you listen to me?

I don't remember being friends with the king... if you insist, they're like visiting without an appointment. Oh, that sounds a little like a friend.

"Fine. What?"

"... Ask me straight in. How many gold coins do you have now?

"Hey, what do you want to do with my nostalgia? I'm not lending you money."

You can't borrow money from a friend. If there's nothing I can do about it, I'll lend it to you.

"That's not what I meant. They will not keep it in a bank, nor will they use it, and they will have large quantities of gold coins."

"What's wrong with that?

"I don't have a problem now. But if you keep saving up, you're in trouble. I want you to use it to turn the economy around."

I don't even know what the king has to say. Even if you don't have a problem now, the total amount of gold coins in circulation will decrease if you keep saving like this. It's too late since that happened. Gold coins cannot be cast without gold, so it is not easy to make them because they are no longer enough. There will be serious deflation.

I see. Now I know why you're so obsessed with your lord. If you become a lord, you will spend a lot of money on building streets and investing in equipment in the village. Was the king going to make me lord and let me spit out gold coins?

I like to embarrass the king, but I don't want to embarrass the people. If I keep saving gold, the people will be in trouble in the near future. Let's just help the king this time.

"How much did you have now?

I didn't know, so I asked Luna.

"I don't know unless you count it...... I think we had at least 4,000 sheets"

Were you making that much money? When...? No, I haven't used it, so it's natural to save it.

"After all, they make a lot of money."

The king knows some of my earnings. Because I keep the deposit from Marie's shop at the Royal Castle, and I have a payment from the Royal Castle. I guess the king had a sense of crisis with that.

"But there are other adventurers who make this much money, right?

Sure, it's a lot of money, but it won't be enough to rock the treasury.

It's not like we're special. Any adventurer could make as much money as this. Sometimes, if you can defeat a big man, you get paid hundreds of gold coins for one.

"It would make money at different speeds. Besides, they're not spending money. There's no other adventurer like that."

It seems that a single adventurer earns about fifteen pieces of gold per month. I'm saving at least 250 months.

By the way, our cost of living for a month is about four gold coins including potions and magic props material. We can live for over 1,000 months... don't exceed our lifespan... I made too much money.

If you ask me, I do have no use for the money I have right now. Elmin Srl is almost self-sufficient, so I guess I don't spend any money on anything but clothes.

But suddenly I have trouble being told to "use it". I'm not going to waste it.

"Should we even start in business?

"Still good. I don't care how much money you make. Anyway, I want them in circulation."

I seem to have conveyed what I was trying to say. They say the king's opinion is the same as mine. It's just awkward to be holding gold coins dead, and it's not a problem to have more hands.

Well, you wouldn't say "be lord" otherwise. Probably because lords will come in more money than merchants.

"If you want to sell, potions and magic tricks."

Claire pinches her mouth. Well, these are the two when it comes to what we sell.

"I know it will... but I can source the ingredients myself and I don't feel like I'm going to use them much in the end"

Both are technical fees for the bulk of the value of the sale. Besides, we can source some of the ingredients ourselves, so we can make them at a pretty low cost. Although there are some processing and material costs, both are more than 80% profitable. The 'Spending Money' that the King wants will not come true.

"Gu...... any more use? Why don't you set up a shop in the first place in Wang Du?

"Huh? No, trouble. You have to hire people."

"Mmm... even though I say it's a merchant's dream..."

They say it's a merchant's dream to set up a shop in the first class of the Wang capital. I think a merchant would be fine, but unfortunately, I'm an adventurer. I want more freedom than a store.

"Ok, ok. I'll figure out how to use it, so give me time. We'll figure something out soon."

"Uhm...... I'll leave the method to them. I asked for it."

I bid the King farewell and returned to the Adventurer's Guild. Then Mr. Elysia was already waiting.

"Thank you for waiting, Mr. Coe! Your assessment is complete!

Apparently all assessments have been made. That was surprisingly quick......

"This way, it looks like you've kept me waiting."

I received the rest of the gold from Mr. Elysia. This is cash too. There are 1,000 more gold coins to spend. Seriously...... That's over 6,000 pieces in total.

"On second thought, that's an awesome amount... I wonder if I can run out."

Claire groans anxiously.

"You don't need to run out of everything. I want to keep about 1,000 pieces, so I'm going to use 5,000."

You can't just use it. Use as much as you need for what you need. If you can't collect more than you spent, there's no point in spending money. Well, I'll use it to play some.

In the meantime, do you want to buy expendable weapons and clothes…. Now we'll use a few hundred, and then we'll think about the rest.
