Seiun wo Kakeru

Age, who unloaded from the ship, was almost on his way home with his face as he filled the hand-held car with rice bags.

Now I can eat rice every day from today on.

If I think so, my expression takes the form of nature and a laugh.

It took a lot of effort to control the expression so that others didn't think it was strange.

Although, we were all too busy to be like anyone else.

The house was no different from when we left.

It's only been a month, but nostalgia creeps up.

The door was open.

There's no sense of security around here.

Hardly any house is locked during the day.

Because even if you were dividing the house, it's almost like an extension of the family.

Is Mr. Tania doing well?

Age went into the house, killing her footsteps in an attempt to surprise her.

The doors and armor doors are open, so it's bright inside with the light to plug in.

Tania's figure was immediately found on the right side of her home, in the stables section.

My stomach is bigger than it was a month ago.

It's the seventh month now.

It's time for you to rest, but while I do, I can't say strongly that I'm away because I'm the cause.

Even with the help of neighbors, there are many tasks to do, such as cooking and laundry.

Tania takes care of the livestock in slow motion.

There's a lot of work to do collecting shit to keep it clean, feeding it water, feeding it, and giving it an easy hairline.

I was just feeding the button now.

He was moving his hand and talking toward the button.

"Button, Mr. Age, you're coming home late."

"Puhi!"

"I miss sleeping alone at night."

"Puhipuhi!"

"Will you have a button? Thanks, but I was wondering if I could use a button instead."

"Puhino..."

"I'm depressed? I'm sorry. I'm glad Age works as a worker, but I feel fuzzy about being too busy to be around."

The look on Tania's face talking to the button was really lonely, and Age couldn't speak up.

I knew I was making you feel lonely, but I didn't think so much.

Insufficient consideration was given.

I didn't know I was letting that happen while I was innocently enjoying interacting with and discovering new villages.

Agie pushed silently and waited for Tania's next word.

"You can't do this. If I was going to miss you when I got back, I'd make you care. I need to be healthy so I can get you out of the house in peace. It's a woman's job to protect her house."

All right, he says he's fine!

Seeing Tania behave consciously and energetically, Age is no longer able to step forward as a jerk anymore.

Tania's words would be true without falsehood now that she is unaware of Age's existence.

If you try to get home early every day with care, you should be happy at first, but eventually you realize what Age thinks.

I'm not in a personality that I'm happy to be a part of.

I have to look for ways to encourage work more than ever while saving my family a little more.

That should be the best payback for the expectations Tania can have.

I couldn't even leave now, and Age killed her footsteps and went back to the front door again.

Take a deep breath and calm your mind.

I didn't see the sight now.

I'm just finally home now.

"I'm home!

"Mr. Age!? Welcome back."

While Tania is a pregnant woman, she rushes to the front door with her early feet.

And when I found Age, I immediately approached her and gave her a gentle hug.

"Welcome back, thank you so much for your long journey"

"I'm home now. Were you away for a long time and not lonely?

"It's okay. 'Cause you guys make it better."

Listening to Tania's words behaving like a temperament gave rise to an uncontrollable emotion in Age's chest.

I thought I liked this guy enough already.

Even so, I love you more and more.

Let's be happy.

"Really? I missed you."

"Yeah, really. Age is easy to miss, isn't she? But it's also true that I missed you. Glad to see Age's face."

They stayed in each other's arms for a while.

Slowly overlapping their lips to make sure they're warm with each other, the two leave slowly.

Tania noticed the rice bag.

"What happened to that big package?

"This is the best part of the deal."

"Well. What's in there?

"Rice. It's the staple food in my country. As I said before, I think Tania will be able to eat the meal where I lived, albeit partially."

"I'm looking forward to that. But so many, can you eat?

Tania's worries are good.

The fact that it was a personal deal makes all the rice exchanged belong to Age.

The quantity of rice per hundred kilos would not be easily cleaned up.

Fifty kilos, for consuming with Tania and me.

This is roughly 80% of modern Japan's annual consumption.

I mean, if I had wheat as my staple, I wouldn't be able to finish eating after a year.

"If I know how to cook deliciously, should I hem it for my neighbors?"

"Don't you know?

"You know or you don't..."

Age was cramped with answers.

I don't know how to cook with fire or anything because the cooker does it all automatically.

I didn't remember cooking with fire such as rice box "Hango" cooking, etc., but only about memories of a distant past such as the Forest School.

Besides, I want to make a cauldron and eat it, not a lunchbox anyway.

Even though the rice varies, you won't be able to cook and eat it.

At a time like this, it would be my best interest as a blacksmith to be in a position to make it easier if I wanted to.

If you don't, you just have to make it. It's a profession that goes on the ground.

"If you find out how to make it again, please let me know. I'll work on it and try to make it delicious."

"Regards"

To Tania's kind application, Agee decided to sweeten.

Then we talked about interesting events and so on on on the journey while eating.

The food in the house is inferior to the ingredients and so on, but the calm space and the familiar flavors feel more delicious than anything else.

The taste is not just felt by the tongue, I thought.

After the meal I gave him a little souvenir and soon fell asleep.

Too much strength was taken away by the retroactive "Soji" of the last river.

Talking slowly will be after tomorrow when your health has recovered.

Starting next time, it might be more efficient to set up a stop on the way and bring it in by road from there.

Or I would love to, Agee thought.

We will be using the village's efforts again, but we should at all costs include them in our next proposed improvements, in order to make the deals on a regular basis.

After sleeping overnight to regain strength, head to the village chief's house.

There was much to be talked about, including a report on this transaction journey and measures to be taken to address the current situation and future improvements.

Once that is done, we will finally be able to hear the disciples' reports on their way to the workplace.

I was looking forward to seeing how much Pietro and Dante grew, albeit in January.

I just want to finish my troublesome report.

The village chief's house was crowded with all the village executives.

Bona, the village chief, naturally, Giorgio and Bernardo to Mike and Jane and Filippo.

And this time Tania is in, as a listener.

Age wasn't so surprised because she had previously heard Tania had been handcuffed as the village chief's grandson, but that would be a testament to the importance of this out-of-court Shigeru.

It's a hassle, I changed my perception.

"Well, are we all set?

"Didn't Mr. Fernando do it yet?

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"Looks like you're just here. Then let's get started. Were there any other products exported in the transaction, such as furs and textiles, leather products such as leather belts and shoes, tools made of iron, blankets and wool textiles, or anything else?

"We also take alcohol and soap"

"That's right. And what I got was salt, spices, horses, gold, silver dishes in olive oil, even just expensive ones. Add groceries, etc. and you'll earn a year's worth of money..."

Bona says with a frightened look, but seemingly uncontrollable joy, grinning only at her mouth.

I guess the other executives still didn't know what they got.

I got a uniformly surprising look on my face and started talking to my neighbor.

Calm down is about Bona and Tania, who know what's going on.

"Even horses. Mom, I wonder which is splendid with Jean's horse."

"Come on. Either way, if it's going to be hard work, it's better than that. That's how it works."

"Hmm. We have to take care of him, Belle."

"Giorgio can take care of you?

"Well, of course."

The most popular was the horse.

Sometimes it was originally very expensive and I guess it was admirable.

A stables is built on a steep pitch and Giorgio and Bernardo decide to take up caretakers.

Bona was a little far from those hustle and bustle and seemed to stare only calmly at the village's relationship.

"Now, if there are any future improvements, notices, promises, etc. on some of the transactions, would you like me to report them as well?"

"Mr. Fernando?

"I'll take care of the carpenter. When it comes to what you promised, you should report it."

"Okay."

Now, what exactly would have been the promise?

Age first remembered the village she had visited.

I went to the village of Tal first.

Then he went to the village of Mostri and met with the clown.

He was welcomed in the river by a line in the village of Auman and finally in the village of the arena.

... This should definitely make the itinerary.

At a time like this, I thought you wanted paper.

Would parchment be literally made from sheep's skin?

Next time, let's ask if there's any ink or parchment.

"First, in the village of Tal, the question arose whether to teach how to make distilled liquor and what to do with the consideration"

"What does Age think"

"Surplus personnel in this village can barely afford it. I was wondering if I could tell you on some terms."

"Hmm... I'd like to monopolize it if I could. What are the terms of that?

"To send certain quantities of wheat and other foodstuffs to the village of Siena every year. Making medicines that can be made from distilled liquor at the same time. To be specified in the village of Siena to the first counterparty, is it?"

"What's the purpose of that?

"Increasing the population of the village. And improving health and reducing hunger and disease would be the first step in empowering villages."

"Hmm, if you get a lot of food, will that stop you from starving? I have no objection so far. What about everyone?

Bona looked around.

Filippo, Tania, Bernardo and Giorgio nodded, indicating with attitude that there were no objections.

Jane thinks something, and Mike raises his hand softly.

"Yes, sir. I do."

"What?"

"Just teach me how to make it, and we won't have a problem making it."

"I'm just teaching you how to make it."

"Well, no problem"

"Mayor, am I good too?

"Jane, when we talk, yeah."

"I don't mind teaching you how to make it, but it's not funny that it's so mass-produced. Do you have any tools to make that distillery?

"I need it."

"Then why don't you try to sell it here, without telling me how to make that tool"

"Yes, it is."

I see, Agee thought.

This will allow us to manipulate the production volume, which is why we can continue to manage it.

It will be easier to apply the terms of nature and trade, and it doesn't seem to be a problem.

"Age, what do you say?

"Okay. You should try to sell the distiller each time, as Jane said."

"It's not a decision. Anything else in the village of Tal?

"No, especially...... oh, there was"

"What?"

"We're talking about a lord, mainly Nazioni. This also has to do with the village of Mostri, etc., so I would like to put it together later on the agenda"

"Right. All right, then go on. No."

"Yes."

There are many challenges to decide.

The meeting was still going to take a while.
