Chapter 205

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

“Now then, I guess it’s time to go.”

After making sure Yurina-san and Ash had got on the wagon, I locked the iron gate up. Today, we were going to the town for the first time in a while to talk to Margo about moving into the town. When I told Yurina-san about this idea, she was delighted since she would be able to meet Josephine-san and her other friends whenever she wanted. 

There’s nothing better than seeing my wife feeling happy. 

That reason alone was enough to convince me that moving to the town was not a mistake. 

I greeted the old gatekeeper as usual as I passed through the gate. I handed the old man a cup of mulled wine (made from milan fruit wine) and a smile blossomed in his face. 

It’s cold out here so really, thank you for your service.

After that, I went straight to Margo’s shop. 

When I entered his shop, it seemed he was in the middle of a business transaction with an adventurer he was familiar with so I waited. They seemed to be negotiating the price of the water dagger that I had sold to Margo. 

Margo raised his hand upon noticing me. He then told me to wait with gestures. 

It can’t be helped then.

Yurina-san and I sat on a stool nearby while we waited. Of course Ash was waiting patiently as well, Yurina-san was holding him in her arms.

“Seems like he’s making quite a bit of money….”

Selling something you’ve made to other people required time, effort, location and other costs as well. However, it would be a different story if I were to live in Resta.

“If I’m going to live here anyway, maybe I might as well open up a store too.”

While thinking about that possibility, Margo had finished with his business transaction. 

“Sorry about that. What’s up?”

After his buyer had left, Margo greeted us. 

“Margo, I have something to discuss with you.”

I decided to talk to Margo about my plan to move into the town. 

After I got the main idea conveyed to Margo, his mood suddenly brightened. He quickly flipped his store sign to ‘closed’ and brought out a bottle of liquor but I quickly intervened.

The shop, is it going to be alright?

I felt deja vu here.

According to Margo, if I wanted to conduct business in Resta, I needed to get registered with the commercial guild. Sarasa’s father was the guild master of the commercial guild so he could help us if we asked him and we could also ask him to introduce us to some good properties while we were at it. 

And so, together with Sarasa, I, Margo and Yurina-san (with Ash in her arms), passed through the door of the commercial guild (a building with the sign of a scale and a bag of gold coins).

T/N: Turns out Sarasa is not an ordinary merchant. Since her father is the guild master of a commercial guild, that means she must be one of the richest merchants in town too. Also what a busy man he is. Granted he already gave the shop to Sarasa but not only he’s the guild master of a commercial guild but he’s also in the town’s council?
