Chapter 62: 62 Episode 62: Gold nuggets have the scent of self-defense goods.txt

Even Elishe, who thought it was peaceful and peaceful, can be attacked by wild thieves like that.

Even if it's not, monsters also spring up. Apparently, there is such a thing as a magical beast.

Without having to think about it, it's not a place that can be said to be peaceful. In the first place, the empire to which Elishe belongs is at war (although it seems to be in a truce now).

The incident of being attacked by the wildebeest was also, in hindsight, a blessing in disguise.

First of all, the attacker was weak. It was just a fortuitous thing, I think.

Also, I had received training from Shero-san, and although it was half a hobby, I had bought a weapon.

If this was a no-ho-hone-nippon kibun without buying any weapons or anything, there is a great possibility that it would have been out of the ordinary. Deanna's spirit magic may be able to hold down one person, but it probably can't handle three opponents.

I had carried my homemade knife with me from the beginning for self-defense, but against a wildebeest with a broadsword, how unreliable it was. There was no way I could counter them on a normal basis.

In short, I was 'dead' - to put it bluntly, I could have been 'killed'.

That's why I decided to make time to train as much as possible. Of course, I'll do combat training, but I'll just prioritize riding practice. If you don't run away, there's no point in talking about it. You're going to train under Rebecca, just like you've always done. Deanna is going to practice riding with a weapon I brought over from the other side. The only other thing I need is some tactical skills. You can learn more about that from Rebecca and Hetty at .......

Well, that's all well and good, but what about the store?

I'll leave in the afternoon. We can leave the morning to Etoi, I think.

I'll just have to assume that we were "just lucky" to be able to fend off this time's wildlife thieves, because "it didn't work" isn't going to be enough. ......

I still can't bear to leave the store in the hands of just one Etowah, but if we don't prioritize training first, there won't be a next time when there's a next time!　This would be the situation. Honestly, if we were to be attacked by a group of five people with even one skilled hand, we wouldn't be confident enough to fight them.

I gave Deanna the weapons that I had purchased from a mail order company on the Internet.

A crossbow and a polycarbonate shield.

When you say crossbow, you probably think of something a bit large, but the one I bought this time is relatively small. It's more like a one-handed bowgun than a crossbow, but the word "bowgun" is actually a Japanese English word, and it's "the name of the crossbow sold by Bougan Corporation".

There was a time in the early days of the smart phone when the smart phone was like an iPhone, but I guess it's something like that, isn't it? I guess not.

Anyway, it's a crossbow.

The expensive ones are over 100,000 yen and they are used for hunting (I wonder if the cheap ones are used for sport shooting. I don't know what sport shooting is. Or catching birds?　It's hard to maintain, and it's over-specified in terms of power, so I gave it up (even though it's said to have a range of over 100 meters, there's no use in it).

After test-firing it, it seems to be more than adequate for anti-personnel use, even with the one I bought. The accuracy is not bad at about 20 meters, and people here probably wouldn't recognize it as a weapon, so it could be used for surprise attacks and such.

However, the strings are so hard that you need an auxiliary cord to pull them, and it's not something you can do in a fight (it's completely unprotected while pulling the strings. If you're in the rearguard, I guess that's okay too).

If you're going to use it in battle, a small ordinary bow seems to be the most stable. The reality is that the crossbow may have to be treated like a surprise mecha to be used in a single shot: .......

I heard that Americans actually do hunting with bows (it's prohibited by law in Japan), but I wonder why they do it. If you miss, it's over. I guess I can see why gun hunting became so popular and bows became obsolete.

Oh, if you can get a gun, there's almost nothing to fear in this world.

The polycarbonate shield is, well, just like that. The clear, light shield you're talking about. To be precise, it's called a riot shield or something like that.

It's lighter than a mithril shield, and its performance--I can't say for sure since I haven't tried it, but it has a reputation for being used by the riot police (I bought it by mail order, so the quality may be lower than the ones used by the riot police, but...).

The size was also a bit expensive, but I bought a larger one. It's big enough to cover almost the entire body, and it should be able to pop otherworldly flying tools, or at least arrows, and it should be able to prevent physical weapons unless they're very good. For Shero-san's class, though, it might be like paper.

I had already given Deanna a tear gas spray and a stun gun (purchased by mail order) for self-defense before this. Although the opportunity to use them didn't come in the last wilderness battle, in the case where Deanna was targeted, these kinds of self-defense products would be very effective.

I thought that other such products that are available in Japan would be good, such as a stab-proof vest and stab-proof shirt, but this one seems to have subtle protection for the price, so I decided against it. To put it bluntly, it's more cost-effective to buy leather armor at Elishe because it's more cost-effective. Well, it has the disadvantages of being heavy and crumbly.

Or you might as well buy Mithril's scales (Skelemail). It's pretty expensive, or rather, it costs about 200,000 yen, so it's not something I'd be comfortable buying.

The net auction is going well, too.

I've been selling items bought at markets and flea markets on a regular basis, and I think the bids have been going up as regular customers have come around.

The demand is especially high for cloth (especially linen) and it's become a bit like ...... a little trade where you buy cloth from Japan, sell it in another world and then use the money to buy cloth from another world and sell it in Japan.

I'd be happy to buy up all of Elishe's used fabric products. The more you sell, the more money you make, so it doesn't matter if you have some inventory.

I have been handing out fliers at the store asking people to buy the cloths, and people are starting to bring them to me. Things vary, but it's not a problem. We buy directly from them, so we can pick them up much cheaper than buying them at the market or flea market, and even if they are low quality used, we can compete on numbers.

What's more, what's great about this otherworldly trade is that you can sell "antique linen sheets" or "antique linen shirts" or "antique linen dresses" and other antique-like items like that as "dead stock".

Strictly speaking, dead stock is just a new item from another world, but that's just a figure of speech.

It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

Cotton is also popular in its own way ......, but hemp (linen) is too strong.

That's why the Japanese yen is also earning good money, and if the pace continues at this rate, it looks like we'll be able to achieve independence from my parents' house. I've moved my living base to another world, and the only things I spend money on in Japan are cloth stocking and buying self-defense equipment.

Speaking of Japanese yen, self-defense equipment was surprisingly expensive, and my mother said, "Don't you have any money in the house, you parasite! The pressure to do so was taken care of by the Gold Buying Center again.

Last time I sold my gold coins, but this time it was a gold cup I found at a flea market and bought. It was palm-sized but heavy, and I don't think there is any gilding technology in the world, so it must be made of gold. Even the mirror of truth was found to be a gold cup.

Well, I don't know what the content is, though.

You are reading story The Amusing Other World Trading Travelogue of Net Auction Guy at novel35.com

As it turns out, the gold cup was 126 grams of pure gold (24k) and was bought for $456,300.

The purchase price of gold itself seemed to be down from the last time I sold my gold coins, but it was still more than enough money.

...... After all, the amount I bought at the flea market was only 1,400 el (one gold and four silver coins). ...... The gold coin was 40 grams, I believe, so that's a little over three times the value of the gold coin. I wonder if the seller didn't realize it was pure gold: .......

Anyway, I got $450,000, which gave me a psychological boost all at once. I said to my mom, "That's for this month! And I was able to afford to slap 50,000 yen on it.

...... Well, it's a bit of a cheat, or perhaps a very gray area, to get such a large sum of money, 450,000 yen so easily, but it's a win-win-win relationship, so to speak, for me, the buyer and the man who sold the cup, nobody lost anything, so there's no problem!

◇◆◆◆◇

Combat training was basically held in the morning.

I did a lot of mock combat with Shero-san, but I didn't want it to be all one-on-one - so we'd have "Shero-san Rebecca-san duo vs. me," or "Shero-san Rebecca-san duo vs. me and Marina," or "Shero-san vs. or "Mr. Shero's Rebecca combination vs. Marina", or "Mr. Shero's Rebecca combination vs. Marina", and anyway, I'm not exaggerating when I say that I covered almost every combination I could think of.

Among them, "everyone vs. me" or "everyone vs. Marina" (even if the opponent's weapon was a wooden stick) really couldn't be helped.

First of all, if you were surrounded like the Shinsengumi, this was a dead end. In that situation, there was no way to resist.

Before that happens, it is advisable to use various techniques to destroy each of them. For example, if you judge that they are at a disadvantage, you can run away immediately. In the first place, they would retreat as soon as they judged that they were in danger.

Shero said, "Defeating one person will frighten them, so you can do it to all of them while you're there. It's not very helpful at all, so we decided to ask Rebecca to teach us how to do it, as we had planned.

It would have been nice if Hetty had been there, but she hadn't been seen since the incident with the chubby.

It's not easy when there are so many of us, you know. It's not so easy when you're dealing with a lot of people. It's hard enough to deal with 2 on 1 against someone who has a certain amount of combat experience.

'Hmm ....... So you still think it's vital to stand around and make sure that doesn't happen ......?

The basic idea is to not be in a combat situation. The basic principle is that Jirou's goal is self-defense, so we have to prioritize 'not being in a state of battle'. 'I have no choice but to fight' is really the last thing you want to do.

Ugh, I see.

Since the thieves' retreat, our minds may have been drawn to battle.

It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do with your money. That's about it, isn't it?

There's quite a pattern to it: ......

It's very difficult to detect a sign and run away and hide. ......

First of all, it's important to know how to get rid of the thieves. Do you know what to do?

'Well, ......, do you respectfully act soberly and soberly to avoid being spotted or ......?'

No. It's rather the opposite. You just have to be strong enough to make the bandits think 'I can't do this'. And even if you don't, you just need to look like it. For example, ...... with a platoon of mercenaries. Didn't that Hetty's uncle or something have slaves as warriors?　That's how you avoid thieves. Well, with that number of people, it would attract a large bandit group in the opposite direction.

I see. But as expected, I can't get that many people to go to ......

I understand the logic, but it's just not possible in reality. It's possible to at least add a few more people, though.

'Huh, maybe we could do something like ...... where Jirou becomes famous as a warrior in Elishe.　On the other hand, it might be depressing to have a challenger or something...

Please don't do that. No matter how much of a vocation you have, you're still a terrible shot.

'What?　You might be better than you think. There aren't that many strong people in Elishe, either. If you get an A-rank in the Hunter's Guild, you won't be messed with so much!

Whether he's serious or teasing, Rebecca seems to be having an oddly fun time.

Profiting from business.

Yeah?　That's too bad. Okay, we're going to keep talking. Let's, uh, "trying to avoid an attack," shall we?　If you can't be strong, I'd rather not be 'unrecognized'. And if they don't target you, they won't attack you.

'I see ....... But if you think about it calmly, the horse, Deanna and Marina are all inexplicably prominent ....... Already ....... That's a bit of a countdown.

'Yakuman?　I don't know what the "is" is, but it sure does stand out. Sometimes it's me and Hetty with you: ...... Maybe that wasn't such a good idea either.

By the way, when I bought Marina's equipment the other day, it was the Turk Marina with her mithril knight gear and halberd (super noticeable), the tattooed high elf Deanna (super noticeable), the tall Rebecca (noticeable), the beautiful Hetty in her maid's outfit (noticeable), and the one shabby guy in a place full of women ( (Me).

Oh, no, this is bad. It doesn't help that I'm getting spotted by bad people.

'It's definitely already pretty obvious. It was still good during the festival and during the preparations, but the festival is already over and ......

'Hmm ....... But it's no use now, too. ...... Shall we go the warrior course after all?

Please stay on the merchant course: ......

In the end, as the famous art of war says, the 36-measure escape won .......

It's also a good idea to take out the fast-legged one that comes after you, like the strategy I saw somewhere else.

The only other thing you need to do is to bring something from Japan that might distract you. ...... I can think of various items that can be used for retreat.

I'm sure it's a good idea to simulate being attacked by a large ...... number of people, such as a bandit gang of over 10 people. If you are in such a situation, there's no way you can escape in any case.

But I'd like to retain enough means to counter at least a few wild thieves.
