The Novice Alchemist's Store

Summer production is approaching today.

“Cooling hat, specialization plan” went well.

Mr. D'Arna had sold a good amount at South Strag, and Mr. Gretz had visited the village several times since then to purchase a cooling hat.

The cooling hat we both purchased seemed to be sold out properly, and Mr. Gretz's price, which had been paid late, had been paid properly the next time he came.

I guess it's still the cheaper than the market that's going so far.

And Lorea's monkey - as well as a special hat - is more popular with gatherers than you can imagine.

When the steaming helm became super comfortable, it was selling.

Because the raw materials are straw, the price is quite expensive because there are more work processes compared to a normal cooling hat, such as improved durability and waterproofing, and the making of the hat itself takes a lot of work, but it just has to do with the selling.

The order came in so bad that Lorea couldn't keep up with her work, and one day, Lorea's grandmother, who had heard her legs were bad, asked.

Says, 'I heard Lorea has an inside job while she's at work. Lorea makes me focus on my work, so I may be disturbed, but will you let me reside in the store'.

Most of the time I'm free. Because of the store number, as far as I'm concerned, I didn't have a problem with Lorea doing an inside job, but I was wondering if it would be a bad idea to say no to that, permission.

As a result, most hats would be made by Grandma Zeng, and for some time, Grandma Zeng was seen knitting straw in the corner of the store.

But hats like that can't be sold if they go to the majority of the people wearing helms in this village.

Grandma Zeng stopped coming and Lorea drove normally.

Given how well you can do it, it looks like you could sell it in another town, but it's completely bespoke, so that's hard too.

I don't know what to say if there are enough gatherers in this village to make this... I guess I'm a little hopeless.

Because I feel it is faster to be imitated than to spread and increase the visibility of the village.

But basically, the sale of cooling hats is going well and there's definitely more money coming to the village.

It's far from a "wealthy village," but I took that step, can I just say that?

And it's not just the villagers who are getting wealthy, as is Mr. Gretz, who is about half a villager.

At one point, I was consulted by him.

"Do you want to give something in return for Mr. Ells?

"Yes, I'm struggling with my father and mother because I left the village..."

It was Lorea who was listening, just like me, who rounded her eyes to that word of Mr. Gretz.

"The prodigal son and the famous brother Gretz, give back!

"Yeah!? I'm famous like that!?"

Was “Prodigal Son” his first ear, Lorea snorts ruthlessly at Mr. Gretz, who raised his voice to his surprise.

"Yeah. 'Cause you raised me, and I left the village, and I barely came back. There is no sign of sending. The general assessment in this village is," No son. Someone you can't marry. "Right?

"but ~ ~ ~! When I asked around to make a hat, I subtly felt a raw, warm, gentle gaze, maybe..."

"I think it feels like a little help, because no kids are working hard, right?

"Ugh, I thought we could negotiate well..."

Lorea pokes the truth at me, and Mr. Gretz drips with a gag.

The hat was collected properly, so some would think that would be good, but as a merchant, maybe a little subtle.

However, it is certain that Mr. Erin is gathered more than when he spoke.

Even if there was a precedent named Erin and an advantage of paying in advance, it meant that Gretz had the qualities to gather that much sympathy... Yeah, I might not be too happy.

Besides, if you do poorly, that sympathy could be for Mr. Jasper and Mr. Elles with such sons, not Mr. Gretz...?

Even if I remember the other day during the raid, it's because Mr. Jasper has morality.

But you don't have to say that to chase him.

"Well, isn't that good? I'm making money safely. The people who can make money are great. On one side, that's the truth, isn't it?

"Oh, right! Decent money, earned it. I succeeded!

To my follow up, Mr. Gretz, a little back on his feet.

But to him like that, here's someone who can shower cold water again.

"It's also because of Mr. Elles' handover and Sarasa's kindness, but hey"

"Ugh..."

"Lorea..."

Mr. Gretz has a subtly tough hit, Lorea.

He abandoned the village and left - in some respects there may be a little pan "macaroni" against Mr. Gretz, who looks that way.

Oh, could it be, Lorea, that you have a pale heart for Mr. Gretz, who was your neighbor's brother?

Extra because I liked it, or...?

But given the age at which Mr. Gretz left the village and Lorea's age, is that unlikely?

When I first walked into the store, I didn't know it was windy.

…… What is it, Mr. Sarasa?

"Oh, yeah. It's nothing."

Because I was comparing Lorea to Mr. Gretz several times, or because Lorea has asked me strangely, I shake my head in a hurry to get back to the conversation.

"So, that was a favor. Well, my recommendation is the fertilizer manufacturer Harvester."

"Fertilizer manufacturer, is it? Our parents do very little field work..."

"No, what matters this time is the material to be put into the harvester"

Harvester is the smelter Artifact that processes the input into fertilizer.

They use dead leaves, dead trees, raw debris and other materials to make fertilizers that are quite effective.

And Mr. Jasper is a hunter.

When the prey that you have hunted, there is a massive amount of unnecessary parts.

These processes are surprisingly cumbersome.

If you leave it, it rots, so if you dig a hole and fill it, go throw it away where it won't get in the way.

I know because I've been there before.

In that regard, with a harvester, the process is easy.

We can even fertilizer it, so if we sell it to the farmers, we'll make a little penny.

If you're going to mention the difficulty, it's going to take more magic to make it work, but Mr. Jasper is my neighbor.

My recently restored herbal field needs fertilizer, too, and for the price of fertilizer, you can supply me with magic.

"If you're a hunter, it's an artifact, a smelter that won't hurt to have it, right?

- I never think of this opportunity as an unproduced work of Volume IV of Alchemy.

Mr. Gretz snorted deeply into my explanation, so there's nothing wrong with that.

"I see, when garbage disposal is easier and you can earn change. That's good. I used to be helped, too, with guts and stuff. Some parts of me feel like I don't want to be a hunter because of that..."

"Oh, if I've been made to do it since I was a little girl... I understand"

Traumatic if you see a creature's neck, a dripping gut of blood, or something as a child.

People who get used to it may get used to it, but on the contrary, I think some people get totally bad.

Mr. Gretz is probably the one who's gone bad, and he's going to choose the path of a pedestrian.

"By the way, how much is that harvester?

"Depending on size and efficiency, right? If you have a lot of processing and run with less magic, it's higher. It starts with at least 12,000 rare."

"... Fine, huh?

"It's the smelter Artifact. But isn't that how much you make?

"It's not like I can't get it out, but if I do... I'll make some more hard money, Mr. Sarasa, so can you please do it in the form of an appointment?

"Yeah, I don't mind. I also need to gather the necessary materials."

I was going to make it soon anyway, so I actually have most of the material.

Most of all, what I was going to make was something small enough to handle the raw debris that comes out of us.

It's too small for Mr. Jasper to use even when he's a big shot.

So it's not a lie that we don't have enough material.

"Gretz, your brother is filial...... should I, too, do something to your father?

"No, I'm still about twice as alive as Lorea, right?

When I start to think seriously, I give Lorea a slightly out-of-heart look, Mr. Gretz.

But he's a prodigal son.

"I definitely want to get rid of that rating! This is not true, but I need to give my fathers a harvester. If you hand out fertilizer, you'll be sure to rate me..."

Lorea, I also feel pretty deeply rooted in the generation...

Well, if Mr. Jasper starts selling fertilizers, a lot of people in the village will know that Mr. Gretz gave him Harvesta.

I don't know if that will erase the previous image, but there's something about the cooling hat, and the information might work?

"You're filial... If you're Lorea's age, I don't think you need to worry about it yet..."

"Sarasa told her parents - Oh, excuse me..."

You already reminded me that I had no parents, Lorea interrupted the words and bowed her head.

"Never mind. But have I ever heard you say that when I get paid, I give you a gift?

I'm sending you to the orphanage for once, too.

Oh, by the way, I sent a letter to my master saying, 'Please adjust the amount sent to the orphanage to look good'. Before this, after coming back from South Strag.

I still don't have much to earn, but you can rest assured if you leave it to an experienced master.

"For once, you have the artifact that Darna recommended to you, right?

"What kind of stuff is it?

"Uh, the smelter" artifact "with the name“ corny ”.

"- Yes?"

"So, co, corny..."

Lorea asks me straight back, and while I blush a little, I mouth that name again.

"Ha, ha. corny, is it?"

"That's the name, isn't it? Officially. By the way, with the smelter Artifact that attaches to the carriage axle, the carriage is reputed to move very lightly"

Specifically, the weight of the luggage seems to be half as light as it was.

You can now tow a two-headed carriage with one head, or travel time is greatly reduced.

A fairly popular smelter, Artifact, for those who use carriages.

The drawback is that maintenance is required quite often.

If maintenance is not carried out regularly depending on the distance travelled, it breaks quickly.

"It's a round trip with South Strag, so I don't think maintenance is a problem...... that, unusual name, is it?

"Right. But you know, there's a lot of" artifacts "in the smelter."

Essentially, it is the alchemist who invented it who names the smelter Artifact.

Most people very simply name the function as it is.

Sniffing pills, magic stoves, etc.

The most appreciated way to name it, even from other alchemists, because you know what it is if you ask for its name.

Flexible gloves are also close to this, but in addition to flexibility, they are also more robust than usual, and because their durability is important, the name is slightly underexplained.

At the very least, I think it would be easier to understand about "flexible blade resistant gloves”.

But this place is good for you.

The trouble is someone who shows weird obsession or names it by intuition.

I guess I think I look good and give it a name, but for the most part, I have no idea what kind of smelter Artifact is from the name.

Fortunately, if anyone has common sense around them, it will be corrected, or an easy-to-understand explanation will be added to the name, like "Fertilizer Manufacturer“ Harvester ".

By contrast, if such track modifications were not made, many would struggle.

Yes, like this one's corny.

"This is cheaper than Harvesta, but with Lorea's salary, can't you still buy it?

"Really...... you have to work hard. I think it'll be easier for your father."

Mr. D'Arna, too, I think he makes a lot of money with his cooling hat, rather, he could sell it directly to Mr. D'Arna... it looks like Lorea wants to give it away, should we stop it?

"All right, Lorea, it's a competition to see which one you can buy first with me!

In response to Mr. Gretz, who laughed nicely and said that, I knew Lorea would smile at her mouth and open her mouth as she turned a slightly colder gaze.

"Brother Gretz, aren't you ashamed to compete with kids half your age?

"Guha!!"

Very true.

That's right, Mr. Gretz, he's a subtle shame.

Even though the appearance isn't so bad.

"I don't mind the competition itself. Gretz, good luck with your brother, okay?

"Yes. I'll do my best......"

Which is older.

Mr. Gretz nodded in a way that made him feel a little bit like that.
