Let's Manage The Tower
(11) Lira Amamiya
"... over a thousand people...!?
Kaiseki, who was visiting the village on the fifth floor, was surprised by the information from Gazelan.
Gazelan returned a bitter smile to the examiner.
"We'll double the number of people waiting to register."
The number is the number of adventurers registered with the Crown.
The reason for waiting for registration is that the number of crown cards produced does not match the number of registrants.
Those who said so are handed temporary cards to deal with.
Recently, I have hardly come to the fifth level.
In the meantime, the number of adventurers enrolled was unexpectedly high.
"Schmidt, is the money okay?
The first thing I worried about when I heard about the increase in the number of adventurers was the question of funding.
The more people you have, the more money you move, the more money you get.
"Yes, fortunately, there is a problem with the number of cards issued. It doesn't increase in numbers at once, so we can handle it."
I see. I'm glad. "
"Yes, it will be fine in the future. More than that, the money coming in is bigger."
In short, the business was going pretty well.
In reality, the number of merchants held by the crown is among the top.
"I'd say the crafts department is doing better... but to be clear, we don't have enough manpower."
The current village on the fifth floor is already off the scale of a village to be called a town, given the number of people who are active.
In contrast, the number of buildings has not kept up.
"We've managed to increase the number of apprenticeships, but it will take some time to keep up with the demand."
There are also Crown members from the existing Crafts Guild, but the current situation is that architecture has not kept up.
Rash adventurers live in tents.
Incidentally, people who wish to settle in the city (buy a house) are prioritizing the allocation of housing.
Residences are available for both rental and selling.
For the seller, the sale fee of the house and the rent from the land are the Crown's income.
"Well... so? What's the biggest problem now?
In response to the question of the examiner, the three of them looked at each other and said this first.
Please name the crown as soon as possible ().
If the scale of the boulder is so large, it would be bad without a name.
It may be too late, but they think it's a mistake to be a guild named Crown.
The examiner sighed at the hope that most of the three were pleading.
I couldn't come up with a good name, so I postponed it, but I thought it was time to decide on the boulder.
"So... what about Lila Amamiya?
"Lira Amamiya, is that you?... what does that mean?
Schmidt leans his neck against words he has never heard.
The other two had similar expressions.
I know Amamiya is the name of the tower, but I don't even know what it means.
"Yeah, well, it's an idiom. Does Lila mean calm or relaxation, while Amamiya means castle in the sky?
In short, it is meant to be a place of peace of mind for Crown members.
The three people who heard the explanation were murmuring and thinking in their mouths for a while.
"Yeah, well, that's good, right?
That's right.
I agree with you.
Therefore, the name of the crown was decided on this occasion as "Lira Amamiya".

"So, do you have enough building materials?
I like the architectural rush, but if you don't have enough materials, it doesn't make sense.
Incidentally, the main building material in the city is wood.
"For now, there's a forest nearby, so we're on time for supplies from there."
For now...
"Yes, for now, it is. If the current pace continues, the forests of this layer will certainly disappear."
Are you still thinking about planting and logging?
"Of course. However, trees take time to grow."
Schmidt adds to Dales' words.
"Luckily, we get cheap wood from Nansen, so it won't be a problem for now."
Nansen is just a city at the foot of a mine, and you can get plenty of timber.
Originally, Nansen was oversupplied with wood, but he was pleased to see that the stock was out of stock due to purchases from Lira Amamiya.
The lumber industry, which was stagnant, was apparently vibrant because additional orders had been placed.
"In the end, there will be more arrivals from Nansen, so I think there will be no more forests in this category."
"Is Nansen okay?
"There were originally too many trees around there, and sometimes there were wildfires. So even though I knew the stock was going to crash, I had to cut it."
"That was the order from here."
"Not only that, but the forests around the city will be delighted to be cleared moderately."
Dales agreed with Schmidt.
I see. Is that okay with you? "
"If there is, there will be a problem with Nansen's commercial guild, but, well, it will be fine."
"Eh...!? Are you okay with that?
"Everywhere in the world, there's a lot of new organizations to see."
Oh, that's what I mean.
The pile that comes out will be struck.
I knew that it was impossible to work without anyone looking at me in the first place, so I decided not to pay particular attention to the examination.
"Well, there will be as many of you as you want to eat in pain."
Schmidt replied bitterly.
In any case, the most dynamic organization in the Central Continent is Lira Amamiya.
It was only natural that an organization should emerge that would enter or acquire the organization.
"I think that's the problem?
"There's nothing you can do about this. It can only be an organization where you can't complain from anywhere."
In the first place, as long as there is no monopoly, hostile organizations emerge as a normal world.
"In addition, Lira Amamiya has a commercial sector as well as an adventurer sector. There will be no fool threatening with power."
Regardless of other continents, there is no state in the Central continent.
In other words, it would be an urban state, but from a military point of view, at best, it would be a force to protect the security of the city held by the aristocrats.
Speaking of city defense, it is a defense from the monsters, so it has not been thought of from the outset to attack other cities.
It is not the security forces that will be at the forefront of the defense from the monsters, but the adventurers.
"If it's this big, anyone who thinks about using it in case of trouble will have no fool to threaten it."
It was Gazelan who laughed.
There is no continent that can ignore an organization of thousands of adventurers.
Not to mention that it is certain that the number will increase even further, so it is natural to say Gazelan's words.
For adventurers, the result is a clear understanding of how shocking a crown card was.
At this point in time, the organization that can ignore Lira Amamiya has become so large that it does not exist in this central continent.
By the way, the proper name of Lilla Amamiya was decided, and the name spread throughout the continent.
