Sauti Family Distress ⑤ - Day 2
That's how the first night we welcomed at the Sauti's house, it dawned safely.
Once awake at sunrise, for the cleaning up of supper, the collection of firewood and pico leaves, and the undermining of commerce.
The Luu family squad was to head to the Luu settlement earlier here.
There's nothing wrong with moving ahead because leaving the force dispersed would also interfere with the undermining of commerce, and either way you're going to the lodging town via a settlement in Luu. So he promised to rendezvous with us afterwards, and it went hand in hand with another action here.
The house of the Pha is in its rightful place at this hour.
The Lew family will be left to cook at the inn, so you can't even take a hand with this job. Five of us, Tul-din, Yamir-Ray, Yun-Sudra, Lem-Dom, and the women of Sauti and Vera, must finish 140 meals of "Poitan Rolls," 120 meals of "Giba-Man," and 30 meals of "Giba-Catusando" on this occasion.
All I had done within yesterday was cut meat and the rest was make sauce for 'Poitan rolls'.
Although Poitan may boil for a few days, the rest of the work must be completed in the last two hours.
"Then, as we had yesterday's meeting, Tour-Din and Yun-Sudra will be asking for 'Giba-Man', and Rem-dom will be asking for Poitan baking. I'm in charge of" Gibba Katsu, "so Yamil-Ray needs your help."
Tour-Din and Rem Dom help me with this task every day, so I decided to let them each appoint me as platoon leader to guide the women of Sauti.
And I only use my first Yamil-Ray as my assistant, and I finish frying the cutlets first. This one has thirty meals, so it's not a lot of work.
Once that's done, we'll rendezvous with Tour-Din and the others to make "Giba-Man".
All you can ask of the women of Sautti is to grind the meat and cut the vegetables, so making the filling with it and making the dough of Fuwano must be done by us who are familiar with it.
I will receive the baked Poitan from Lem-Dom and complete the "Giva Cuttlefish Sandwich" once I have your eye on it.
Apply the sauce to the oiled cutlet, scissor with the chopped tino, and pack it in a crate so that it doesn't break its shape.
"Poitan Rolls" is a dish that I cook locally, so when the Poitan is cooked up, that's it. Store in a luggage truck along with meat packed in bags and sauce packed in earthen bottles.
At the end of the day, we were all engaged in the task of enveloping the 'Giba-Man' filling with fuwano fabric.
Time is full.
Yamil-Ray was sighing as he packed the finished 'Giba-Man' into a steam cage.
"Now you usually had your inn dishes to put aside all day, didn't you? Totally hard to believe."
"Hey, there's nothing wrong with the neighbors Fou and Run and Sudra because they've already worked through the work instructions. Lem-Dom, as you can see, is also a handyman."
"It must be this kind of noise every morning even in the settlement of Luu. I'm glad I wasn't driven out."
Either way, the dish is done.
Thanks to Mill Fay-Sutty as a bundler, we rush out to the settlement of Lou.
Even in the settlement of Lou, there was no problem for once.
However, the giva harvest has fallen in half yesterday due to the absence of the main hunter. If this continues, the story was that the stock of organs may run out early.
"Well, if you put your foot up to Lilyn or Maam's house, you can secure it. Whatever it is, Donda, I just pray that our fathers can do their job safely and quickly."
At the time of the parting, Rayna-Lew said so.
That's how I arrived in Accommodation Town, and I'm still doing fine business today.
Thankfully, the foot had not fallen at all.
Exactly. They didn't even diminish rarity in just two days. Rather, it could be as much as reputation has inspired reputation and gained a lot of momentum.
There was nothing strange about this, but the only notable thing was that Naudis from "The Great Tree Pavilion in the South" visited me as a guest for the first time.
"Uhm. Sure this is delicious. Giva's guts seem to taste just as good as meat."
There seems to have been a lot of talk about this Blue Sky Dining Room in "The Great Tree Pavilion in the South," so he asked me to confirm how much it was.
I let you get out of work just a little bit, and I let you thank me for "thank you" instead of Sheila-Lou or Vina-Lou, who seem to be busy working.
"But this is the Lew family dish, isn't it? Wouldn't Asta be going to sell the juice at the stall?
"No, I want to try and get it out slowly. Rather than juice, dishes served on regular plates."
Then you won't even battle with the Lew family.
If you can choose this dish for one or half servings, you can also have it ordered with the juice. That should give you as much width for the combination of contributions as possible.
"Hmm. Then I'd like to wish you one thing from me."
"Yes? What is it?
"If I can, I want you to sell me a bunch of bullshit in the street."
That was an unexpected offer.
Even I was in the mood to see how the curry was sold in front of me, but I was concerned that I would get tired of being too messy because it was just a dish sold in four houses.
"Even in my inn, Bubba has shown a good deal of selling. But there are still a few people in the South who think of this as Sim dish and avoid it."
"Yes. Then are all the customers of the people of the West ordering?
"I guess half the people in the west, the other half in the east, just a few in the south,"
"Oh well. You talked about visiting the Great Tree Pavilion in the South with some people from the east looking to cook Giva.... But even with all these more inns dealing with Giva food, that number hasn't decreased yet?
"Yes, sir. My restaurant is the biggest innkeeper dealing with Giva cuisine, although I would like to say so. Especially since the Xuanrong Pavilion is a small inn, the people of the east who couldn't get in there seem to be quite a few."
Is the Xuanrong Pavilion so prosperous?
As far as I'm concerned, it was a very gratifying story.
"With me is the blood of Jagal, but he is a people of the west who gave his soul to Selva. I have no desire to recuse myself from being an East born customer. … but after all, I want my inn to be a relaxing place for southern guests. Jagal guests are most delighted with the dishes prepared at the Grand Tree Pavilion in the South."
"Yes."
"But Bubba is less sellable than any other Giva dish. This is because the vast majority of Jagal customers think of bulkies as Sim dishes.... but this is supposed to be Asta's hometown dish, not Sim dish, although I use a lot of Sim vanilla?
"Yes, Sim-born customers must be very rare"
"I want the people of the Inn Town to know more about that fact. That the gobbler is not the dish of Sims, but the dish of Asta, the people of the woods, the people of the migrating people."
Rubbing "Gibba's Mothpot," Naudis said so enthusiastically.
"This dish uses tau oil and sugar purchased from Jagal. But this is also the food of the people by the woods, not jagal food again. Forestside people use Jagal ingredients and Sim ingredients for no reason. If I can let you know that, I think I can let you know that Bubba is not a Sim dish, but a Forestside dish."
"I see. I think I understand what you're trying to say"
I smiled and gave Naudis a nod back.
"Then I'd like to get your feedback from the other innkeepers and set my mind on that. … However, the Lew family has just opened this dining room, so I guess I'll leave it to them until it settles down."
"Nothing will need to expand the store immediately tomorrow, I guess. However, Easter of the Sun God will be here shortly. As a businessman, you can't miss this opportunity, can you?
And Naudis said that like a deer claw.
"I am at Asta's heart, as it is my personal request with regard to Bubba. But it seems that Asta should expand the store, even if it's not too much. If you want to spread the delicacy of Giva to the world, there's no better chance."
"Ha. Will there be so many people visiting Genos for the Easter fold?
"Yes, sir. Even if you quote less, there should be more than double the number of guests who use accommodation and stalls. You hire people in my shop, and the only time you do that is when you're out on the street, right?
"More than double, is it"
That was quite a story.
The people's stalls by the woods still welcome as many as three or four hundred customers every day at the moment.
Plus, it's a freshly expanded Blue Sky dining room, but if more than twice as many customers pack it up, it'll be feathers that will cause more capacity.
That means we have to further expand our seats just for that period of time.
Then surely, perhaps the house of Fa should have prepared a new contribution to go along with it.
"Okay. Thank you for your valuable information. With Naudis' words in mind, we want to find the best way."
"No, Asta and I have been together for months. I would like to continue that relationship, where Asta's success leads to my success and my success leads to Asta's success."
Naudis is probably the firmest thing to call a trusted business associate.
It's not that emotions aren't teasing, but when compared to Milan-Math, Nail, Yumi, etc., it feels like it's a pattern tied to respect and trust for your work, not emotion.
In a way, it may have been a feeling that goes through Pole Earth as well.
Naudis left like that, and after that very peacefully and hastily the day's business was to close the curtain.
◇
And when we're done with business, we're going back to the settlement of Sauti.
The women of the Lou family were replaced by Raina-Lou and Lara-Lou.
"Rayna-Lew, I'm sorry, but can I ask you to take a look at the juice? Because Tour-din knows the amount."
"I acknowledge. Where will Asta go?
"I have to borrow the outside kamado to make some commercial curry vegetables."
Currently, curry vegetables are being wholesaled into four inns. Although the order was still about a hundred meals in total, if it were to happen every day, it would go up to quite a few portions.
The task of grinding and sautéing spices routinely cleans up a huge amount with the help of nearby women. What we need to do today was finish it with curry ingredients.
Yamil-Ray is appointed cooking assistant and will carve Aria first. Stir that in milk fat along with the spices and add the fuwano at the end. There's nothing difficult about the work itself, but when it comes to finishing the amount for a few days, it's a lot of work.
So - that's how sautéing plenty of spices in an iron pan, there were people gathering here and there.
These are the women and young children of Sauti and Vera.
If you had sprinkled so much vanilla scent, it would be natural to be suspicious. I wanted to tell you that there was no need to worry, but they kept wandering us around and didn't quite get us anywhere we could hear them.
"Asta, what the hell is all this noise?
It was Sauti's elder Moga-Souti who spoke to me like that after a while.
"Yes," I say as I put the wooden tape in the spice where I threw the fuwano.
"This is also for commercial use. sorry for sprinkling the annoying scent"
"No, it's not sticky... but it's an intense fragrance. Make no mistake. This way, you can keep the forest lord away from the settlement without using the fruits of the Giva"
Moga-Souti was smiling so I could breathe in relief.
"If you don't like it, should we serve this dish at dinner any day? Even the Rutim celebrations revealed that they were quite popular at the time."
"Um, interesting. Maybe this is Sim's vanilla?
"Yeah, I bought it from Castle Town."
"I see... somehow it feels like the flesh of Noon is craving this scent."
Saying so, Moga-Souti took a slightly farsighted look.
"When I started living with Totos in the old days, even in Sautti, Noh thought, This thing called Totos is oddly familiar, and all the men can ride without bitterness. I was wondering if the blood of Sims, who sleeps in them, might make them do that."
"Oh, maybe the people by the woods have Sim and Jagal's blood, right? Surely the people of Sims can handle the Totos very skillfully."
"Mm-hmm. There seems to be a lot of Sim's words and lessons left by the woods. With Jagal's Black Forest as his home, Sim's learning is being conveyed in that way, which may still be proof that Sim's blood is in it."
Moga-Souti has an increasingly clear grin.
That was somewhat of a way of laughing that reminded Grandma Ziva.
"Non counts seventy years of age, but he does not know the age of the Black Forest. Ten years before Nan was born, the black forest burned.... The fathers of Nong were born in the Black Forest with the blood of Sim and Jagal, and their sons Nong and their sons hunt for Gibba in the territory of Selva. Think of it as a strange tour."
"If I say so, doesn't that mean it can exist to connect Sim, Jagal and Selva? I'm sorry about the out-of-mind Mahydra, but I can feel it that way."
While I remember my conversation with Naudis during the day, I let him answer that.
Moga-Souti smiles again in return for me like that.
"Until just a few months ago, Non and I were not connected to the people of any kingdom. No nation could have been bound except by evil friendships that repelled you. It's your lords who have restored it to the right shape, Asta."
"Yes, thanks to Donda-Lou and Gazran-Rutim and Ai-Fa"
"Then you must be the one who united them first, Asta."
Moga-Sauti invited the toddlers, who were eager for this one on the far-roll, to place their wrinkly hands on their little heads.
"And now the Lord has also incorporated Satie into his circle. Thank you, Asta."
"That's also because Dari-Sautti relied on the house of Lou and Fa, which had no blood edge."
I smile back at Moga-Souti as I transfer the boiled spices to a special large plate.
"I would be very happy to be a friend of Sautti's.... I'll get ready for dinner again after this, so stay tuned, okay?
The second half of the words were addressed to the toddlers.
The toddlers smiled and said, "Yeah!" He nodded at me.
◇
The hunters returned from the woods only two hours later.
The sun was leaning a lot to the west, but it would still have left nearly an hour in the sunset.
The hunters were to be greeted by surprises and cheers.
I did not enslave the Lord of the Woods. Instead, he has triumphed with an unusual number of givahs.
"I've done everything in my power to hunt these guys, so I came back mainly without running into them. You have to wear the fur."
That's what Ey-Fa, who holds a giva that looks a lot heavier than his own weight, says: eleven hunters, who have carried a total of six giva. The others have huge gibberishes that have come to the stick with both of them.
But if you listen to me, this seems to be a giva with successful blood drainage and a giva with safe fur, otherwise the giva has been thrown away with horns and fangs.
"Plus, there's a share of Sautti's family. I stopped counting how many gibberishes I had in total, being silly along the way"
"I was counting! Eighteen gibberishes in all I've brought back, and thirteen gibberishes I've thrown down!
It was our Dan-Rutim who shouted so loudly.
"Yes, how am I getting a hand wound at a time like this! I wanted to sift a knife with you all, too!
"So you're telling me you've hunted as many as 31 givahs alone?
Mill Fay-Sautti, who welcomed the hunters together, crumbles in dismay.
Looking down at it, Donda-Lou answered in a grumpy manner.
"We have only laid waste to Gibba, whom the hunters of Sauti have driven. There were sixteen hunters, eleven of us, and 27 of us, so I guess nothing is worth surprised about."
"But fewer than ten hunters sifted the sword...?
"Still, it's an achievement with the power of everyone. That's why we decided to divide the corners, the fangs, the fur and the meat evenly."
Donda-Lou abandons the noise.
"Besides, no matter how many lives there are in such a way, it will be enough. If the Lord of the Woods does not show up within a few days, our power will also be exhausted. Not in a situation that would please you at all."
Everyone seemed to be regarded as energetic by the side, but they would still have been forced to shoulder the corresponding burden. No matter how efficient the hunting was, 31 heads for 27 people is an unusual catch.
And yet, even under Ai-Fa and Mida, who were waiting behind a hunting ground strewn with multiple traps, a herd of gibberish pushed in from another direction, apparently sifting a sword. Gibba, who lost me due to the effect of "Sacrifice Hunting," is dangerous, but Mida, who is not good at pursuing and is good at intercepting, said she could hunt many Gibbas without risk.
"What have you never hunted so many giva...?
And Mida was happily shaking the flesh of her mandible.
It seems that my chosen act of "sacrifice hunting" did not have to have unfortunate consequences, and I = fa is relieved as well.
Imagine Ai-Fa and Mida joining forces to repel a herd of Gibbas, my chest got hot too, no matter what.
And - with that in mind, there was a man who slipped through my throne and ran over to Ai-Fa.
"Ey-fa, are you okay!? Isn't there so much blood out there!
I look back at the content of the words.
It was Yun-Sudra who was picking up on Ai-Fa.
Ey-fa frowned as she shrugged, looking down at the little girl's blue face.
"It doesn't matter. This is Giva's blood, not mine."
"Oh, did you? I'm sorry. I accidentally disturbed it."
Do your hand to your chest, Yun-Sudra breathes heavily.
In retrospect of that appearance, Ai-Fa creased deeper and deeper between her eyebrows.
"Why are you messing up like that, Yun-Sudra? Yesterday, when the Lew family suffered a wound, they should not have disturbed their hearts so much."
"Yeah? That's of course the Luu family is the chieftaincy muscle and all hunters are brothers by the woods, but the fa is Sudra's friend, so it really disturbs my mind"
Yun-Sudra replied as he blushed his palpable cheeks.
"If Ai-Fa were to be wounded by that body, I would have as much chest pain as Sudra's family would have been hurt. I also pray that I will be able to do my job safely from tomorrow."
"............... right. You're a temperamental person, Yun-Sudra."
In a low voice, Ai-Fa said so.
"It's outrageous," Yun-Sudra smiles shyly.
Side by side, Donda-Lou declared, "We're going to get rid of the Gibbas".
◇
That evening, the main course was simply steak and hamburger, the juice was tarapa-tailored giva soup, the side dish was stir-fried with four vegetables and mushrooms, and Shima's salad at the time of the dice.
As for the main dishes and juices, they were a conscious choice for rarity and nourishment when it came to vegetable dishes, as they would further improve the skills of the Sauti ladies who had already learned how to cook them from Rutim.
The vegetables used in the vegetable stir frying were purchased from the castle town of Zucchini's Period Chang, Luccola's Period Rohyoy, and Paprika's Period Ma Pra, except for Aria, where mushrooms are also luxuriously made with shiitakemodoki and kikuragemodoki. The flavoring consists of tau oil, sugar, chatch flour and various vanilla sprinkles of oriental style.
The Daikon Shima salad is soothed with a dressing made from dried plum dried kiki, which is refreshingly tailored.
And four families, with the exception of Sautti and Vera, were to be delivered Giva Soup for the number of people.
Although the flavoring is simple based on tarapa and myrmu, there are three rare vegetables used in small quantities, just like stir-fried vegetables, from the familiar vegetable named Nennon to Tino to Aria to Chacci.
Hopefully this will give us all some strength.
"They're all delicious. It seems more delicious than the dishes we had in Castle Town before, Asta."
Dali-Souti, who fits like that, also said that the fever had finally dropped completely, so from today on, it was usually decided to move to food.
The other wounded, especially the two seriously wounded, were still only able to rinse ground beef juice, but the other four had recovered to the point where they could normally be eaten with food and half.
"Speaking only of Sauti and Vera humans, your food seems greatly consoling, Asta in the house of Fa"
After supper, during the cleanup, Mill Fay-Sautti came ear to ear like that.
"The folks at Faye and Dawn will surely feel the same way. Some parts of me wondered how much it meant to call not only the hunter but also the number, but apparently it was an embarrassing mistake."
As usual, that look was tight and tight, but Mill Fay-Sauti's words made my feelings much more at ease.
That's how we didn't even have an agenda to discuss it again that day, so we were to pull it up to our respective houses early on - but we were just about to span the laying of Vera's division with the Ai-Fa and Barsha, and we were to be called from behind.
"Asta, may I have a moment, please?
It is Yun-Sudra.
I accidentally get stuck in a response and look back at I-Fa.
"Don't be too late," said Ai-Fa, half-eyed, and just disappeared across the doorboard.
"What's wrong with you? Is this some kind of work story?
Opposite Yun-Sudra under the moonlight, remembering to be so.
"No, that's not it. I just wanted to thank Asta."
"Thank you?"
"Yes, thanks to Asta and her actions together, I was able to see different things indeed. I could also know that even those like myself could empower their compatriots. I've just been in Sudra's house for a long time, and I'm sure I couldn't even get these thoughts."
Combining fingers of both hands, Yun-Sudra stares at me with a hot look.
"Those of Satie who were losing their power will just regain their strength by mouthing their meal happily. I've never been so proud of myself."
"Yeah, I'm glad to hear that too."
"Thank you so much. To me, Asta is hope itself. I will continue to serve Asta until this body decays."
"No, Yun-Sudra -"
I almost said, "No" to Yun-Sudra.
"That's not what I meant. It means only as one kamadoku number. Because it would be unworthy for us to wish for Asta's companion."
Finally, two letters of "partner" popped out of Yun-Sudra's mouth.
I look back at Yun-Sudra's smile as she sweats on her back.
"But I have just turned fifteen, and until I am sixteen or seventeen, I will not be stuck asking you to take my son-in-law. So until then, I want to continue to hone myself so that I can build the strength I deserve as Asta's partner."
"Yun-Sudra," this time I tried to speak up.
But it also gets whispered "no".
"I know. That there is no place for me in Asta's heart right now. Still, I want to live in faint hope until Asta marries the other women to her daughter-in-law."
"Yun-Sudra... you are with Lyelpham-Sudra..."
"No. I haven't talked to my parents about anything. Even if we don't talk, I know Asta's mind. Because I guess no one is following Asta's heart more than I am. … except for just one."
Saying so, Yun-Sudra smiled with a grin.
"I guess I don't have a winner or anything with such a nice bunch of women against me. Still, I can't stop thinking about Asta."
"Yun-Sudra......" I repeated like an idiot.
"But you'll never beat the other ladies. I'll let you get all that power. Therefore forgive me that I am with you in the future. … I love Asta."
Keep smiling, Yun-Sudra keeps away from me.
"If Asta is bound to the person she wants, she sends the utmost blessings from the bottom of her heart. Then I cry one night, and then I look for a companion for Sudra. Still, Fa and Sudra will remain friends forever."
Beyond the darkness, Yun-Sudra's figure disappeared.
I looked up at the blue and white moon, chewed up the whirling emotions in my chest until I missed them, and then slammed on the doorboard of the Vera family.
The ladies of Vera with their candlesticks lead them to the same room as yesterday.
Ie-Fa was lying on his bedding, turning his back on this one.
Ai-fa is on the wall today. I can lie in silence instead.
Because of the 'sacrificial hunt' for crackling, Ai-Fa's body was wrapped in a sweet fragrance by the bewitching.
"You're back, Asta"
After all, Ai-Fa was not asleep or anything.
I look up at the ceiling beam, and I say, "Oh."
"Do you have anything to say to me, Asta?
"Right. I think I should just say one word."
"Uhm."
"Yun-Sudra had everything under control. And on top of that, you said you wanted to respect my feelings."
"... well," Ai-Fa snaps, keeping the wall facing.
"Those women have a lot of fine sexual roots."
"Yeah, you are"
"Whoever accompanies such women will happen to be able to possess happiness"
"Yeah, I think so."
I gently closed my eyelids as I felt the smell and temperature of Ey-Fa right next to me.
"When Yun-Sudra gets a mate, I want to send the best of blessings too"
I = fa still only said "well".
That was how the second night in the settlement of Sauti passed very quietly.
