Seiun wo Kakeru

Two stories. Promise to the village of Tal.

Once the blacksmiths were finished, the Ages were to receive a welcome from Girolamo at the village chief's house.

The season is spring.

The table was rich in colour with fried spring vegetables and mountain vegetables such as cabbage and celery, goat cheese and river roasted fish.

This won't go in the winter.

At a discreet table, mostly salted or just smoked.

Besides, the bread was white bread.

I could just guess how welcoming Girolamo was.

Age served the table with only one pot of distilled liquor that was loaded on the ship's traded goods.

"What's this?

"It's a very spicy drink. It's my favorite drink."

"Fell? Mr. Age."

"Yep. It's a special method, which strengthens the alcohol of wine. This guy seems to like this drink, and he wants it for his work, and he swallows it one after another, so he's running low on storage."

"Heh. It's unusual for Fell to fit so well. No matter how many treats we prepared, you looked cool."

"Would you like a drink?

Girolamo looked at a pot of distilled liquor in such a way as to intrigue him.

The expression looked intriguing and Girolamo seemed to have no eyes for alcohol either.

Next door, Fiore refrains from doing as promised, and this one is also curious about distilled liquor.

When they are recommended distilled liquor, the two nod without one or two.

Apparently, they both drink.

Pouring the liquor into the cup, Girolamo slowly smelled the aroma, checking the colour and making sure it tasted licked.

Instantly my eyes opened and I was stunned and colored.

"This is...! Ugh, yummy. The taste of alcohol is very clear."

"What is this? I've never seen anything like it. So thick."

"I thought Giro would understand."

"Yeah. It's really delicious. I've never had alcohol like this before. Who the hell owns this booze?

"It's me."

"... I see. Age is called blacksmithing, and you seem to know a lot about technology that we don't. Why don't you tell us, if you can, how to make this alcohol? We would like to thank you for what you have done."

"How do you make it? That's..."

May I tell you once again?

Age thinks.

If you don't teach, you will have a monopoly on technology.

At last, I can monopolize profits.

On the other hand, there was a problem of very low supply, since manufacturing was limited to the village.

The village of Siena is currently developing various technologies and is always understaffed.

Even lifting the children of the village out of the help of the house is still a situation of lack of hands.

The free time I spent riding out on a water wheel to cut back on time was the current situation that I was applying to my new job.

For that matter, village life is improving dramatically.

Age's reform can continue in the future.

Somewhere it was necessary to release the technology externally.

The question is whether it is good in the village of Tal and whether it is good in distilled liquor.

Alcohol has a strange charm of collecting gold, people and power.

For this reason, houses that manufacture liquor have strong powers.

It is also clear from Age's knowledge that there are overwhelming numbers of brewery houses in Japanese politicians.

Agie slowly looked at Girolamo.

I thought I had to get a good idea of why I wanted to make distilled liquor and its intentions.

"Why would Mr. Girolamo want to make this alcohol?

To Age's question, on the contrary, Girolamo responded with a question.

"Does Mr. Age know what this village makes a specialty?

"It's baked goods, right? I used to give you a tour, so I remember very well."

"Right. Our specialty is ceramics. However, the ceramics are very heavy and easy to crack. There is also a limit to raising the price just because it is hard to carry. It's not suitable for trading. In that regard, I thought this alcoholic beverage would be suitable for trading."

"But this distilled liquor is slightly unsuitable for making quantities. I can't tell you how, because it's like multiplying a normal wine. Then why don't we just make regular wine?

"That would make it in each village, wouldn't it? This sake is one I've never seen or heard of. I'm sure you'll all want to say a few things you can't."

Girolamo was firmly aware of the value of distilled liquor.

And the purpose is also, he said, for the prosperity of the village.

I wondered if it would be okay to tell me if I wanted to drink some terms.

You can make some of the distilled liquor into disinfectant alcohol.

Nevertheless, Age is also outside the village.

I couldn't snort lightly.

"We will discuss this once in the village, so we will put it on hold. But even if I told you, I think it would make the first business partner the village of Siena, and some constraints."

"Still, I don't mind. I couldn't see ahead just making pottery right now. For the future of the village, think positively."

"Hey, I don't mind the hard part, but it's time to eat and drink and get closer. The dish is going to get cold."

"You're right about Fell. Age, I can't even offer you much hospitality, but have fun."

In a word of Girolamo, the welcome feast began.

Fiore pours wine around the cup.

Agee tried wine made in the village of Tal.

It is more sour than what I drank in the village of Siena.

Even similar wines vary subtly from village to village.

Naturally, I thought.

Wine varies in taste and price depending on the region and year.

Though right around the corner, it would be natural for the taste to vary from village to village.

The grilled fish was also well salted and delicious.

Most importantly, the white bread was extraordinarily tastier than the bread I usually eat, and I guess honey is used, faintly sweet.

When the meal also proceeded, Fiore stood up and headed to the corner of the house.

"Now we welcome the two of you from the village of Siena and let us blow one song"

"Fiore is famous for his whistles."

When Fiore took out the lateral whistle that rolled through the tree, he breathed in quietly.

As soon as it was quiet, the village chief's house was accompanied by the colour of the sound.

The fine sounds up and down are sometimes expressed passionately, sometimes sweetly and softly.

This is awesome, Agee honestly admired.

My ears are comfortable.

I inadvertently dive in my breath and listen to the melody.

I don't know how many drills I've loaded, but it was definitely a pretty high-level performance.

The twitching finger movement is complicated and doesn't even rest temporarily.

It was a gorgeous song, unlike the music at the festival.

Eventually, Age was applauding naturally when a gleaming sound marked the end of the performance.

"Hey, I've never heard that before, but it's a great performance"

"Brava! Fiore, I'm impressed! You must be the incarnation of the goddess of sound. Come on, have this drink and moisturize your mouth."

"Thank you"

I would recommend Fernando to Fiore to snuggle the distilled liquor.

I didn't think you were going to get drunk, Age, but Girolamo wouldn't say anything, so I had nothing to pay particular attention to.

As Fernando became tight with Fiore, Age was set to talk to Nature and Girolamo.

"Right. Did that happen after you left us last time? [M] Franco still looks like a man."

"Right. I didn't even think I was going to take an apprentice so soon."

"It will be tough to be brought in with troubles. Talk to me if anything happens. Help us with our slightest strength."

"Thank you. But how did you get there?

"The village of Siena is at the very edge of the island. The village of Tal is also in front of it, on the edge. It will be best for those in the corners to work together. … I think that working together is much more beneficial to each other than working with each other or taking it by force."

"Right."

"Nazioni has accomplished the great thing of unifying the island, but the policy since then, to be honest, no one has gained. Squeeze it, the town of Nazioni wins by itself."

And Girolamo lay down his voice.

The gentle eye suddenly takes on a serious color, and the lurking voice is full of harshness.

"I believe that sooner or later this reign will fail."

"No way......!

"There will be an explosion of discontent from somewhere and a revolt. There will always be a wave of chaos, though I don't know if it will be suppressed or succeeded. At that time, the only person you can really rely on is the person who built the relationship up to that point."

To Girolamo's assertion, Age breathed.

Apparently, the movement in the world is much more tingly stuck than Age thinks.

"I believe that Mr. Bona, the village chief, is also a respectable person, including Fell, who has maintained a relationship so far. And, Age, you are also new, attractive to knowledge, technology, and people that make many people happy. So I'll do as much as you need my help. Well, it's a thank you foreclosure. You shouldn't take it the way you say it, and be careful."

Around laughing and telling yourself to pay attention, I guess Girolamo is really a good person.

Even if this is an act, I thought the desire to maintain a good relationship was real.

Age lifted the drink cup.

Girolamo also holds a drink cup and hits the tip.

"I won't hesitate to rely on you then, Mr. Girolamo."

"Anytime."

Cool throat pouring wine in.

As my body as well as my heart had heat, it was warm.

"Hey, what's wrong with you two looking serious? You don't drink?

"I'm having it, Fell"

The next morning.

When I got up from the straw, Fernando was keeping his back down.
