Let's Manage The Tower

(9) Rental store

Kaiseki, who made two magical instruments, quickly took them to Schmidt and Gazelan.

Gazelan is here because basically both magic objects are for adventurers.

The place where they are showing their magic equipment is not the Crown headquarters, but the management conference room.

Now, seriously on the fifth floor (?) I work as an adventurer, so I sometimes want to avoid suspicion.

Schmidt, who was said to have created a new magic instrument for the examiner, initially had his face shining with expectations, but now he is the face of a merchant.

He was teaching me how to use it and wondering if it would really be for sale.

However, as Kaiseki had predicted in advance, Schmidt did not eat very well.

Unlike the innovative magic equipment used to be, it is not widely sold, so naturally it is.

On the contrary, Gazelan looked at the magic equipment with interest.

Gazelan, who was originally a living adventurer, knows the convenience of two tools.

Of course, Schmidt also knows that adventurers are an easy tool.

However, it does not generate much profit, so it can only be viewed calmly.

Schmidt asked me when I had finished touching it.

"Certainly, there seems to be a certain demand... how much do you expect to sell?

"Hmm. On the contrary, I'd like to know how much you can sell. By the way, how much does it cost?

Having said that, I saw the price offered by Kaiseki, and neither Schmidt nor Gazelan had a nice expression.

Both magic items were supposed to be bought by the rush adventurer, but they were too expensive for that.

Of course, if you're a mid-class adventurer, you'll be able to buy it, but once you're in that class, you don't have to bother carrying your baggage or crushing the fields.

"That's the price. How many of them can buy it?

"That's right. I know it's convenient, but if you pay the price, many people will try to do it on their own."

Before the two failed, the examiner did not change his color in particular.

It was within the bounds of expectations to say this.

Anyway, it's a tool that came to mind after receiving a request properly.

I know exactly how much money the rising adventurer receives.

If you think about it, you can understand that the price I just said is unavailable.

However, that is why there is no option to lower the price any further.

"Of course, but... Even if you think about the materials you use, it's impossible to lower them any further.

Well, I guess so.

Schmidt nodded at the words of the examiner.

Even if you look at the materials used on the outside, Schmidt can see that the price that was just decided upon is a setting that is exhaustive.

And that's why Schmidt's reaction just now is one.

Knowing that, the examiner shifted his gaze to Gazelan.

"That's why the meaning of calling Gazelan comes out."

"What do you mean?

Gazelan simply thought he had been called to see if it would help the Adventurer.

Therefore, I didn't know why the examiner said such a thing.

"Would you like to buy this magic item in the Adventurers department?"

The idea is that the adventurer department could lend it to an adventurer who was asked to buy it.

If that were the case, it would solve the problem of prices and also have the advantage of being an adventurer division that can reduce requests for cargo that tend to be evaded.

Gazelan understood the intention of the examiner, but he put his arms together and turned into a difficult face.

"... I see. Sure, there's nothing you can't do about it, but... it's a little difficult, isn't it?

It is hard for the Adventurer Division to buy tools and lend them to adventurers without any collateral, just to reduce the number of requests.

That's because, basically, the adventurer is responsible for everything.

This means that the adventurer will have the tools to make the request.

Now, if you start lending out your tools for the Runaway Adventurer, you might be able to tell the Crown to get their own.

Given that, it is clear to the examiner that Gazelan cannot grant permission immediately.

However, from one point of view, it can be a blind spot.

"Isn't that because you're thinking of just lending out your tools, even if you don't have to?

"What? What do you mean?

It was Gazelan who raised his voice, but Schmidt, who was sitting next to him, echoed what Kaosuke had said.

"I just want to lend it, so I think it feels unequal. Then why don't you just take the money and lend it to me?

It can be quite natural for an examiner to take money and borrow things.

However, there is no so-called rental shop in this world.

After walking around the city for the past few days, Kaiseki realized it again.

Of course, people who are close to each other owe each other things.

However, it was the truth that such rental shops could not be found.

Gazelan and Schmidt looked at each other after hearing the dialogue of the examiner.

"I'll take the money and lend you the magic equipment."

"If the amount offered per run is cheaper, can the outgoing adventurer also do it?"

In contrast to the two faces that feel like they didn't think of anything at all, the reflection aid looks strange.

"It wasn't in the city, so I thought it would be interesting, but there's nothing like a renter of these kinds of tools."

"... no matter how much money you're taking, lending out expensive magic equipment that could be destroyed is a delicate business."

No one is willing to do business until they rent out expensive tools when they may be destroyed or what they lend may not be returned.

I wish I had recovered the purchase price of the tools before the accident, but it's highly unlikely.

Speaking of which, if you step outside the city, it's a very difficult world to track down individuals.

Considering them, rental is a very risky business.

However, in the case of a crown, such risks can be mitigated rather than simply setting up a shop.

In order to belong to the Crown, you must issue a Crown Card.

In short, it's the same as making a membership card and renting something.

Plus, if you're in the Amamiya Tower, you won't have to worry about getting out.

In a way, it can be said that there is a great environment to start the rental.

Gazelan told him to roar after hearing the thoughts of Kaiseki.

"Sure, if you listen to me, I think it's going to work..."

"We need to make sure it's okay."

"That's good. What I just told you was only my idea. [M] Besides, there might be other ways.

I came up with a typical rental shop, but this world-specific method may come from other staff.

Actually, I was expecting that from you.

It is necessary for civilization to develop that the inhabitants of this world come up with and implement something on their own.

Ultimately, Gazelan and Schmidt, who accepted the offer, agreed to discuss and decide within the crown, and the offer was accepted.
