"Happy birthday, everyone. Nice to meet you again this year."

"" "Happy New Year!

The year has also passed safely.

When I greeted everyone in the dining room in the morning, they all greeted me back. There were twelve of them and four of them. Hmm, it's a big time zone.

Oops, there was John... How do I count him? There's one building, but there's only one pyramid. So, what about the dungeon? One? Hmm... can I have another John? There were twelve, four, and one John. It really became a big time zone.

What, fish farming? I've thrown a round as usual, but what?

As long as there is someone who can do the job, it is better to leave it to him. If you embrace anything by yourself, you will be forced to accumulate and go bankrupt. I punished you in my previous life.

All I do is make policy decisions and give a little knowledge. Leave the rest to the creative ingenuity of the person in charge. That's what work is all about.

Proprietors suck up the profits! Fuhaha, I'm sad, but this is a business! Well, this time it's a village business, so there's no profit. Sad, though.

It is planned to relax at the base (here) on the third day, go to King's Capital via the town of Dantes on the fourth day, celebrate the New Year's Day at the royal castle on the fifth day, and celebrate the award ceremony and victory commemoration on the sixth day. Then, through the town of Dantes, the return to Dorton is scheduled for seven days.

Our lectures at school and our work as proxies are closed until the tenth day, so it doesn't matter if the schedule goes crazy for a little while. It doesn't really matter to me, but in a world where transportation isn't well developed, it's common sense to keep enough margins on your travel schedule.

... but even if you have plenty of room, only then will you encounter a problem (event) that will drive you crazy. For example, accidents and illnesses. All right, let's not think about anything! There's nothing the world can do!

Well then, I'll give you a special bonus for your New Year's fun. Even if you say how much you've got, you'll have fun since you got it, but Cristala and Kikka know how much you've calculated. "

"Well, if you can suck it off, it'll be like last time."

"I had a lot of money last year, but I also had a lot of spending."

I'm handing six of my slaves a bag of money. I made 10% of the profit last year, depending on my contribution. It is a just reward for slavery, as God has decreed.

The amount is roughly the same as last time. I made a lot of money last year, but I spent quite a lot on the development of this base and the music in Dorton. As a result, it was almost the same amount as last year.

Incidentally, this bonus will not be paid to the cats who live in the base. Because they are criminal slaves, God has stipulated that there is no need to pay remuneration other than the minimum subsistence guarantee. Well, I'm not eligible for a reward because I haven't contributed to my profits in the first place this year. Alcohol and dried goods are provided as a New Year's celebration, so please be patient.

"Hahaha, you're in so much again. It's going to make you feel funny, Atai."

"Oh, I have to leave it with the Adventurer Guild again. Ufufu"

"Before that, I'll buy fish! I bought an elephant tuna!

"... my nose is delicious"

I'm glad you're happy. What's more, I'm curious about that elephant tuna. It's kind of a name that's expected to be incredibly big, right? I'll buy it next time. No, let's go get it!

Yes, Basil and I have one too.

What?

Children are old. Basil's not my slaves, so they're not eligible for a bonus. But I feel sorry for you for not having anything, so I decided to give you an old man. The amount is always about a million yen per large gold coin.

I know it's not a good idea to give a kid a lot of money, but on the other hand, the sense of an adventurer is that one big coin is not that expensive. A few large gold coins are usually attached to a slightly finer weapon or armor. The rewards for several gold coins are also rough if it is a difficult request to collect, and it is not uncommon to request a few large gold coins if it is a request to kill a bandit. Because it's a job that puts my life at stake, the reward is considerable.

"There's a profit from the sale of the dragon you hunted, and you did your best to help us get home. Don't hesitate to take it."

"Ah, thank you!

"(Grunts)"

"Amazing! I've never touched a big gold coin before!

"Impressive"

Looks like everybody's happy. Some children are slightly less emotional. Sarasa, if you're impressed, at least stop being faceless. I want to see your smile.

"Beet, what about you?

"I don't think so.

"Why!

"That's a lie. Yes, this is for Jasmine's sister."

"What, it's not there! Thank you, Beat!

"Don't waste it."

I also have Jasmine for my sister. It's sad that I can't get it alone. The contents are the same as the children, a large piece of gold.

I have all my usual living expenses, so it's basically not like Jasmine needs cash. However, it cannot be said that it is not necessary due to unforeseen circumstances or a little shopping, so I usually keep a few large silver coins (tens of thousands of yen). This is a special edition of it.

"Don't waste it," she said, but basically Jasmine doesn't spend money. I bought a little bit of food.

Rather than being less lustful, I didn't feel like shopping because I didn't have the habit of spending money. Takumi Village didn't have a shop. I don't want money this time, I think I just missed that I can't get it alone.

Personally, I grew up with a nice proposition of beauty, so I think I can wear a little bit of clothing and accessories. I can afford that. It's kind of a waste.

"Pee! Where's Pee?

Yeah? Do you want Pee-chan too? But you don't spend any money, do you, Pea?

"Pee, I want Pee too! That sparkly one!

When Pee-chan asked me for money, and I was surprised that I had already learned the value of money, it seemed that I was only interested in something shining. Speaking of which, some birds had the habit of collecting sparkling objects. With crows?

Pee-chan is a monster who lives mainly on the beach in Sai Lane. The staple food seems to be fish.

Well, it's not impossible to attract interest to glowing objects. For the same reason that the fish's scales reflect on the sun's light, the glowing objects will take away their eyes.

Coins in this world are made by the gods of law and commerce and are a kind of artifact that rarely gets dirty or broken. It's always sparkling. It's no wonder Serene wants it.

"Well then, I'll give you this. Should I lower it from my neck through the string? Don't lose it."

"Phew! Thanks, Dad! ♪

There is a hole about one centimeter in diameter in the middle of the big silver coin. Pass the appropriate leather string through this hole and hang it on Pee-chan's neck in a pendant shape. I turned it into a big silver coin because it was the most fishy color. I'm sure Pee-chan is in a good mood. The usual song leaks out of your mouth when you're happy. It's not a magical spell song, but it's a nice voice to be fascinated by.

After everyone listened to Pee Chan's song for a while, I got my first treat this year.

The chestnut blossoms were perfect. It's popular with everyone. Now we have another world full of life. I can only thank Luca.

Yes, let's look for rice this year and have some stewed rice next year. Yeah, I got a good goal. Motivated.

This is going to be a good year as well.
