I Became the Demon Lord and my Territory is an Uninhabited Island

Episode 96: When I Bought a Cow

About seven days have passed since the stupid bear was attacked by a bear at Aquamarine. In the morning, we arrived at Corundum, had breakfast at our favorite restaurant, and after a while, let our subordinates unload goods. I immediately headed to an inn with a catfish beard merchant who wanted to buy coffee and told me that the goods were being brought into the warehouse, and that Alban had died.

He was a little surprised at that time, but did not show any particular upset.

"Please ask your two subordinates for details. Then I'll be waiting at the warehouse, so please spin the carriage."

It was good to ask his subordinates, but the reaction when he told him that he died was to take a quick look and report it to Calm.

Then, shortly afterwards, the carriage arrives in front of the warehouse, so it's loaded with coffee, and the two remaining men are stuffing their luggage.

And it's about money.

"I'll check again. The price that the other party wants to sell, the cost required to return to and from the island. There was almost no error around here. In other words, it is no longer necessary to pay for one meal on the return trip I mean, I'm going to get three servings a day for a total of eighteen servings in six days ... and I wish Alban-san's happiness. "

I don't know much, but just keep the prayer shape. Then I receive the offered amount and return the amount of 18 servings from it, and I say the usual line.

"If you have something again, please use our firm."

He bowed and said, Catfish beard ran to the gate.

"Yeah, guys, he was just told by a great guy somewhere, and he just went with him. Well, with just a hundred bags of coffee beans, this profit is really delicious, thanks to Calm. Have to"

□

All the islanders are in front of me.

"It's about time that Nils, a merchant, is returning to the port, and some money collected in this will enter the island, so after paying the craftsmen who came from Corundum, I hope with the remaining money Of the male and female so that they can breed, of course, but the former slaves still can't afford to pay, and there are no places to spend money on the island No, please be patient for a while. ''

"I don't mind it ..."

One person answers as a representative.

"I'm not happy with that alone, so I'm thinking of buying other things I need. What do you want? Pay for things instead of paying."

"" Sake !!!! ""

Several men answered immediately.

It's fast, it's too fast and a little surprised.

"Because we can harvest the wheat soon, let's leave a little stockpile and separate the rest so that we can use it for sake. So we will buy sake, although not as much as before."

When I say so, people start to get angry and various opinions are exchanged. And finally, the most important things were written at the top of the note, and those that were unnecessary were written at the bottom.

"If you have extra money, I'll buy it from the top of this memo."

"No objection"

A cheerful man agreed on behalf of everyone. Rather, sake is made with sugar, so it is made from coconut fruit, but sometimes you want to drink something that is not on the island.

"Captain, a little question."

"What'll we do?"

"In the past, I asked a professional company to carry livestock, but I want to reduce expenses, so I want you to deal with livestock, but how much is it?"

"... Some boats are loaded with sheep, but large livestock can be harder to handle, and more stress couldn't make it harder to get milk?"

"Ah……"

"Calm, let's get the milk out before we have a baby-just bring the cow and let it relax here. I don't mind a few things, I'll go to the port."

Enomoto-san told me so I'll give him a favor, and it's a ship problem.

"Large amounts of feed and excrement disposal. Are you OK? Captain"

I tilt my head while facing the captain.

"... Oh, yeah. If you tie it to the deck and lay straw, soak it and wash it off with haste, maybe .... If you come back to the island and Mr. Calm will help you clean with magic."

"It's okay. And can you drop a small boat with ten adults and drop it on a rope?"

"Huh? I can do it for a while."

"Because a cow weighs about 10 adults, it's okay to carry it in and out."

"Oh !?"

"I'm really a sailor with a strong skill, please."

I knocked on the captain's shoulder with a super smile, and one of my subordinates said that Calm was lucky.

Actually, I wanted to ask the captain who had brought the hero before and harass her so much as to overwhelm her stomach, but let's give up.

You just sit down at the table, serve tea, smile while drinking tea, and talk about the current situation. If you think it's bad, you'll probably come to your stomach.

"Then, when you're ready, go sailing, then head to Corundum and buy a variety of things, so when you arrive, just put on the load and you'll be ready to go. So let's work with care today, rather than having coffee, would you like to go for a little more coffee today? "

With that said, I went to harvest more coffee than usual, and that evening I transferred corundum and headed for Nils.

"Thanks"

Enter the warehouse as usual and call out to nearby workers. I came back this morning and heard that a merchant who had ordered coffee by day had left town, so I headed for Nils. The story seems to be taking a break.

I knocked on the door and received a reply and decided to go inside.

"Thank you for this time, thank you during this time.

"No, thank you so much. Thanks to you, I made a lot of coffee."

Nils has a tired face, but she makes a smile.

"I think you're really tired, but you came to collect money and buy it with that money."

"Hahaha ... it's so convenient that I want you to teach me the transfer magic.

Traveling by boat can be quite tiring. Would this be the case if I came home soon after I came back? It's not my first meeting, it's not a bitter bite, so let's listen.

With that in mind, Nils brought the documents and sales and put it on the table.

"This is the money I got from the merchant who traded this time. As you can see from the documents, you can see the sum of the necessary expenses plus the labor cost, here is the price of one bag. And Mr. Calm Since the price of one bag presented here is here, the difference is here, and it was to add 10% of profit, so the final sales of 100 bags will be here. ''

Hmm, I guess it still makes money. Looking at the numbers on the documents, she smiles terribly.

"Yes, it's 10% so it's easy to calculate. Well, it looks like you're making a lot of money because you have a terrible smile, but don't ask how much you sprayed. I will. "

"No problem"

"So this is what I'm going to buy this time, and I want you to get this memo from the amount you're paying out to the craftsman you called from this town."

Give that note to Nils.

"Is it a cow, or do you call a special dealer and carry it?"

"No, I don't have a lot of money this time, so I will carry it here. I have little knowledge of carrying large livestock, but I will do it somehow. I will leave it to the trader, the last time the hero also specified the ship I brought with me I'm sorry I can't do that. ''

"I don't know what you're thinking, but it's a really bad smile."

"I just wanted to serve tea with a smile while saying that I was having a hard time as revenge during this time, that's it. I will not reach out to the captain or sailor who is doing nothing wrong. I just deal with adults with a smile, and there is also a small story about what happened with the hero. .And"

"Haha, it makes my stomach hurt."

"It's a little revenge."

Then, while watching the memo, we entered into some negotiations, and decided to cut off the lower part of the memo without mercy.

"Oh, I forgot. I was a merchant who asked me for coffee, but I didn't seem to be particularly upset when I told him that Alban had died. It just seems to have been done "

"Well, it doesn't matter. If you have too many, just bring Oda-san to this town and let them learn there."

After that, we had a chat and talked about the fact that the taste of coffee had changed a bit, or that we had been returned with a good scented soap made on the island.

"Please tell us a bit about the soap."

Nils's eyes are sharpened like prey hunting prey, and his voice is slightly lower.

"Are you not here?"

"It's there, but it's hidden like Calm's island, technology doesn't go outside, and it's a one-man win because it's made by individuals."

"If it's expensive, you can sell the finished product, but there is still not enough manpower and we only make it for the island's demand. You have to hire and produce in detail. "

"I'll do it. What about five minutes of sales?"

Don't bring it to business immediately. As expected, a merchant.

"Is the demand high? 10%"

"The demand is too high for the upper class, honest luxury goods. It takes time to make essential oils. Eight minutes"

"If you can get the essential oil, that's okay. And if the island develops. I'll make it and sell it here too. I hope so. If the season goes around five times, will there be more people on the island?"

"Mm ..."

Nils is really worried.

"I'm kidding, I don't stick with money that much, but I'll do it in five minutes if I do things in the future"

"You guys are so sweet that you really want to scold them.

"I don't want to be troublesome. I really wanted to live and relax in my hometown, but I suddenly became a Demon King ..."

I shake my head, holding my eyebrows and sighing.

"That's why, I will explain later. Is it okay to see things?"

Stop holding your eyebrows and continue as usual.

"Thank you, so I will have a formal document at that time. I will prepare the goods as soon as possible."

I said goodbye today and returned to the island

◇

The captains went to Corundum with the Harpy tribe on a trial basis, talking alone with them, and promised to take Enomoto five days later, and headed for Corundum five evenings later.

"Oh, there was a boat, let's go."

"Well, if a bad cow, I'll drop it with haste."

"I know, Enomoto is more familiar, so I'll leave everything to you."

Say it to the ship and say hello to everyone.

"Thank you, how were the Harpies?"

"Well, it's a good lookout, but it's really just a lookout. He found a merchant ship passing by the sea from a position where he couldn't see the sails, so he seemed to take quicker action if he was a pirate."

"If so, do you think of Oda as something that can drop things from the sky and hurt the other ship?"

"And, in the presence of Nils's staff, the requested item has already been brought in, so I just need to pay for it with this document."

The captain takes the paper out of his pocket and hands it to me.

"Oh, cows that are more cattle than that!

"Oh, that's right. This is Enomoto."

The captain guided Enomoto to the cow on the stern.

"Well, I'm young, so I can expect it, it's not impossible, it's not impossible. That's two sets. It's good. What?

"Okay, it's a story about making a hot spring house by the sea and making hydrophobic as soon as possible."

"I don't know. I'm very happy."

That's why I talk to cows and stroke them to calm them down.

"I was saved. If I came here and said," This cow is useless! "..."

The captain stroked his chest and was relieved.

"Did you have difficulty getting it?"

"Well, terribly."

"Sorry, thank you."

"Nmook!"

The squeal of a cow caused subtle air to drift on the deck, and I headed for Nils to escape.

"Thank you very much"

This exchange has become a matter of course, so the artisans around will be willing to talk to you.

"I was drinking cocoa for the first time during this time, but it was really good, and the kids were pleased when I bought it as a souvenir and returned home."

"It was good"

"I was told by my bride," I have sugar! "

"Haha, it's bitter if you don't enter it, so I'm sorry."

He went to the room where Nils waited.

"Okay, sorry, but let's talk about work."

It's something really awesome. In addition, the documents had already been prepared and only the signature had to be given. That's how much money you get. Is five minutes too cheap?

"This is the thing, mint, lavender, chamomile. Roses are not on the island, so I could not make rose balm, but I think I can do it to some extent."

Nisul is smelling the scent while muttering.

"You can try it?"

"Oh, no problem."

He spoke to the staff, washing his hands in the well on the back, with both men and women, who seemed to be secretaries.

"Oh, it smells good."

"Do not remove dirt as well as ordinary soap."

"This guy feels sooooo good."

Such voices can be heard from various places.

"Mr. Nils, but this is a luxury item? What happened?"

"It's handmade by Mr. Calm there. I'll ask him how to make it and start a new business."

When Nils says that, they all turn their eyes to the annoyance. Don't look at me with such eyes.

Then, you will be guided inside again, and once you have paid your money, you will start explaining.

`` It's easy, shaving the soap once made, roasting a cup of tea with the fragrant flowering tea thickly, lightly grinding the same potpourri that was made into tea with the shaved soap, and adding the essential oil and the ground potpourri to the soap Add and mix, add honey and mix, add tea little by little and when it's soft enough to be like an earlobe, put it in a mold and let it dry in the shade. ''

"It's not a detailed recipe, but it's a general recipe. Burn it if you don't need it. And it's not a reliable formula, so please study it day and night."

"Okay, then sign here."

I trust it, but I read the contracts a few times before signing.

"Yes, certainly."

"I hope you succeed"

"I wish I wasn't stabbed by a monopolizing person ..."

"What have you ever been stabbed?"

"A little in the past"

"... I'm sorry, so be careful."

I didn't listen deeply. Nils, when I was young, I was a little crazy ...

"Hamaha, pray not to die"

"Now, increase your escort, what happened to the first adventurer to come to my island?"

"That's because I just wanted to go to Corundum, so I just hired it cheaply."
