Raglan Chamber of Commerce, Kaina Village Branch. The manager is Eric.

The goods sold are daily necessities, clothing, seasonings, some books, and so on.

In short, it is a kind of a "yorozuya" (a store for all kinds of things).

In the mornings, the shop is open for making daily necessities in the workshop attached to the building.

"Really, you are going to rent this place to us?

"Yes, as long as you do business in this village.

A two-story store and residence on a large plot of land. The fact that I could rent it free of charge made me feel uneasy.

"But don't make Barbara cry."

Uh, yes, of course.

With these conditions, they are given a two-story house with a stable, a carriage house, and a warehouse.

The first floor of the house is a workshop in the back and a store in the front, with a kitchen, washroom, and toilet.

The second floor has four rooms with beds. For some reason, there are two sets of the most comfortable futons I have ever seen.

There was also a simple sink and toilet on the second floor.

It would not cost ten thousand dollars a month to rent such a store in King's Landing.

Jin is even thinking of giving it to Barbara as a gift if she marries him, but the important thing is that Eric does not know about it.

* * * * * * * * * * * * *

"Good morning, Eric.

"Hi, Barbara."

Barbara, the niece of the village head, comes to help out every day. They are an official couple in the village.

"What are you making today?"

"Oh, this."

Eric showed her the tools he was making.

"Oh, a water pistol."

It was a toy that Jin had made last year.

"Yeah, I saw some kids playing with it the other day, and I thought it would sell well.

"Sell it at ......, at the main store."

"That's what I meant."

Usually it is the other way around, but here in the village of Kaina, the Raglan Chamber of Commerce was looking at the village as a new cultural center.

"Speaking of which, Eric..."

"Hm?"

How long are you going to stay at ......?

"You mean in the village of Kaina? ...... well, at least a year.

"Oh, I see."

Eric is actually the grandson of the chairman of the Raglan Trading Company. Because of his background in engineering magic, he had attended the Cecilio School of Magic in King's Landing for about two years and had mastered all the rudimentary skills.

"Okay, it's done."

A water pistol made of white mica from deep in the mountains of the north. It's a pistol. Eric fills it with water and pulls the trigger. .......

The water should have shot out from the tip, but instead it spurted out through the gaps here and there.

"Whoosh!"

"Yikes! It's cold!"

The two were soaked to the skin. Barbara in particular was wearing a thin linen jacket, which was showing through in various ways, which was not good.

"Don't look at me!

"Oh, I'm sorry!"

Eric looked at Barbara's back as she ran out with a red face, and saw her off with a red face as well.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I'm going to open the store from noon.

"Well, do you have any pepper?

Yes, how much do you want?

100 grams.

400 Tall or 200 grams of Magi Sand.

Then 400 tall, yes.

Thank you very much.

In the village of Kaina today, currency obtained by selling magi sand, pen nibs, rubber balls, and other items has begun to circulate. At the same time, the old barter system was also accepted.

The Raglan Chamber of Commerce has a long relationship with the village of Kaina, so they were able to accommodate them in this area. Of course, there is no denying the fact that the village is governed by Jin.

That is how much the Raglan Chamber of Commerce wanted to cherish its relationship with the village of Kaina, and by extension, with Jin.

In the village of Kaina, which has about 30 households, it is impossible to say that business would be so busy as to attract many customers.

Most of the sales are enough for Eric to manage on his own.

The reason why he decided to open a branch is, after all, to <.

Around 3:00 p.m., Eric closes the store and goes on a tour of the village. He is looking forward to making many new discoveries.

Today's destination is Nido Castle.

He brings some sweets as a souvenir and goes to the castle. It was time for a break and Barrow and Behle were having a cup of tea in a corner of the dining room.

"Hello!

"Hello? Hello. Eric, right?

Yes, I'm Eric of the Raglan Trading Company. I'm Eric of the Raglan Trading Company. I'm here to talk to you about a few things. May I come in now?

Yes, we were just resting.

That's good to know," Eric said, and was about to offer the pastry in his hand, when his nose twitched.

He looked and saw an unfamiliar yellow object in front of Barrow and Behle. The cut marks on it indicated that it might be food.

"Excuse me, what are you two eating?"

"Oh, they are called pancakes. Yes, let's treat Mr. Eric too.

Behle then got up from his seat, took out some powder from the cabinet, and started stirring an egg and milk mixture.

"Well, I'm sorry. Here, if you don't mind.

"Oh, thank you very much for taking the trouble.

Burroughs received it and bowed neatly.

As I sat down at the recommended seat and made small talk with Barrow, I could smell the good smell wafting in the air.

"Here you go, sir."

In less than 10 minutes, Behré presents me with a pancake. Perid101 had started to make them on Horai Island, and Perid101 immediately made them available here as well.

Of course, Jin could taste them here as well.

"So this is what you call a hot-keg?

"Butter, syrup, or jam, your choice..."

Well, syrup then.

Syrup is usually made by boiling down sugar water, and most of the sugar has a slight brownish tinge (about the same as sanonto sugar), but the syrup here was clear and colorless.

In other words, they use pure white refined sugar. Eric was astonished by this. He even wondered if he would be charged for it later.

But when he saw Barrow and Behle spreading so much butter and syrup in front of him, he couldn't help but do the same. Then I took a bite.

"...... delicious!"

Eric liked the taste at once. It goes well with the astringency of the tea.

"I'm glad you liked it."

Eric was so engrossed in eating the pancakes that he could hardly hear Behrle's words.

"Excuse me, can you tell me how to make these hot cakes?"

"Ummm, yes. I'll have to get permission from Jin-sama.

He said no.

A few days later, Jin came back to the village of Kaina and asked me to teach him how to make the pump for 100,000 dollars, the same price I paid for the pump.

* * * * * * * * * *

Eric opens the store again at 4:00pm. The shoppers are coming in for dinner.

"Can I have a kilo of sugar?

Yes, I'll have 10 furs.

Can I have some salt?

Yes, 150 dollars a kilo.

And then, as the long summer days draw to a close, the bells of Nido Castle ring, signaling 6:00 p.m. The bells have been well received, so many people have come to visit.

The shop was so well received that they decided to set the hours to 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. in summer time and 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. in winter time, taking into consideration various factors.

I was about to close the store and calculate the sales when Barbara came in.

"Eric, have you had dinner yet?"

"No, not yet. I thought I'd count the sales and then get ready to go to ......."

"Would you like to come over for dinner tonight?"

"What? You sure? Well, I'll take you up on your offer.

"Deal! I'll help you with the math.

Eric is surprised by her words. It is usually unusual for a farm girl to be able to do the math.

"Thank you ......, Barbara, can you do the math?"

"Don't make fun of me. Don't make fun of me. I'm still learning!"

Barbara sat down next to Eric and started to do the calculations. Eric, who was anxiously watching her, was surprised at how accurate and fast she was.

"That's right. That's because Dr. Meane taught me how to do it. It's easy to just add up the day's sales and subtract the cost of goods sold.

In fact, I learned the calculations as a special class to help Eric, but that's not something I'm going to talk about.

"Thanks, Barbara."

"...... (I wonder if I'd make a good wife)."

"What? Did you say something?

"No, no! Nothing! "......, we're done here!"

"I'm done here, too."

Barbara stood up briskly and pulled Eric by the hand.

"Come on, let's go."

"Uh-huh."

The only thing watching them as they walked in friendship was the newly risen moon.

Eric knew that the moat had already been covered by the moon, and that many villagers, including Martha, Hannah, Jonas, and Nona, had been watching them from Eric's store to Giebeck's house.
