The delivery of the liquor ordered by the King has been completed.I plan to sell it to Raymond next for further input.I wasn't asked to do it directly, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it because it looks like you're looking.

Ask Claire, who was looking for Raymond, about the situation on her phone.

"Claire, have you found Raymond?"

I was in the Adventurers Guild.He said he's on a permanent mission today. "

Standby assignments are assignments where the Alliance stands by to respond to emergencies.I don't know exactly what to do.

"Okay, I'm coming."

So I moved to the Adventurers Guild.Turning to Claire, who was near the counter, Claire points to the back of the Adventurer Alliance.

Then there was Raymond sitting in a boring chair.

"Hey, it's been a while."

When he called out, Raymond smiled and answered loudly.

"Whoa, I've been waiting! Claire told me!Where is the example!? "

"Don't rush me... I'll let you out now"

Move near Raymond and set the barrel in front of you.

"Oh, it's better than I thought....."

"Besides, it's so thick.I suggest you dilute it more than twice. "

"I see. Did you buy it directly from the brewery?I'll do it myself. "

With Raymond's mouth, I understood it was a common occurrence.I have to buy it with that intention next time.

"That's it. Drink it after work."

"Yes, I'll drink it when I'm done here."

Raymond looked a little sad.But what kind of system is this?

"By the way, what kind of job is that?"

"What, you've never done this before?This job is basically "just being".Ask your nearby Adventurer Alliance for backup when problems arise in the city, or have them dealt with by on-the-spot personnel.If you don't have anything, you can sleep. "

Sometimes they take a break or take a nap, and sometimes they spend time in light training or tactical meetings.If you don't drink too much, you can drink... no, you can't.Apparently, they've been silenced.

Adventurers' benefits include floating accommodation fees, knowing quicker winning requests than anyone else, paying a separate fee when things go wrong, and getting a little reward even if nothing happens, which seems to be a popular task.

Well, I guess I don't have to.Looks like it wasn't forced.

So, what should I do with the liquor money?Is that your treat? "

"That's not true. 160 gold coins, please pay."

Unfortunately, I think it's a bottom-up price, but I also wholesale it to the royal castle at this price.

"Hmm? It's a lot cheaper. Are you sure you're okay with that price?"

"No problem."

Are you sure it's okay? You're making a hell of a profit.On the contrary, you'll be worried.

"But this barrel contains more than 200 bottles, even five gold pieces..."

Wow! I wasn't thinking that much!Even if the cost of a bottle of liquor was one gold coin, sales of 800 gold coins were rough.It's too cheap to ask.I'll pay Glenn a little more next time.The purchase is too cheap.

But I bought it at a very low price this time.It hurts my heart to increase the sales value any more, so I'll sell it for 160 sheets.

"Never mind. The price is fine this time.Instead, let a lot of people drink and hear your thoughts. "

"If that's the case, leave it to me! I'll behave like a friend."

"Oh, please."

That's why I left the Adventurer Alliance behind.Raymond knows a lot of people in vain, so I think I can get some additional feedback here.

Next, Mr. Bonanza. I should be waiting for you at Alencia's house, so I'll be on my way right away.

I arrived at Alencia's house, but I don't see any sign of Bonanza.It looks like Irvin's the only one here.Go inside the house and make sure.

"Irvin, how was Bonanza?"

"Ah, welcome back. I was away.He's on a business trip and won't be home for a while. "

Irvin says indifferently. Looks relieved.I'm worried about your attitude, but it's okay.

"I see... then I can't help it."

Mr. Bonanza had one extra barrel that he thought he had left.Well, it's not rotten, and I'll throw it in the warehouse for a while.

The delivery of alcohol is over for now.Next is carbonated water. Return to Elminsule for now.

Finish your dinner and go to bed.Let's do dry ice research tomorrow.That's what Lily was thinking.

"It's the device I was talking about yesterday. Could you look at the prototype?"

"Huh? Are you ready? Isn't it too soon?"

"Ko told me how it works, and it wasn't that hard because it was mostly just a combination of existing magic tools."

Lily put a wooden box on the floor that Leeds seemed to weigh.Is it about the size of a little safe?Much bigger than I thought, but it looks complete.

Wow.

"No, there's a problem.With this device, you can only make about 20 potion bottles even if you move them all day. "

The potion bottle has a capacity of about 50 milliliters.About a bottle of a nutritional drink.Does that mean... you only produce one liter a day?

"Not much....."

"Right? Says it won't save, and it's a failure."

There is no convenient container like a pet bottle in this world, so if you leave it for half a day, it will be normal water.Milgia's bottle was well made, but it will still be water in a few days.

Impossible to improve?

"I can't. I'm short on carbon dioxide."

"Really....."

Absolute CO2 deficiency. After all, Lily opened her mouth when she thought that the only way to burn the tree was to...

"That's what I'm proposing."

"What?"

"Shouldn't we just store carbon dioxide separately and mix it just before we drink it?"

"That's it!"

Gas cylinder. Why didn't I think of this?Definitely faster that way.A pressure-resistant container containing carbon dioxide is needed, but it has become quite realistic.

Let's start with the prototype.

Luna put a small piece of iron on the table, blocking my words.

"So here's the finished product of the reservoir."

I see!

The size is about 350 milliliter pet bottle.It is slightly sneezing, but it has a beautiful cylindrical shape.Looks like a miniaturized propane gas cylinder.

"We have created three prototypes for this reservoir. Please check."

Lily and Leeds lined up a large wooden box.They're all refrigerator sizes, or vending machine sizes. They're pretty big.

Carbonated water is actually quite stressful.If the structure is poor in this size, it is likely that it will explode after losing to internal pressure.

"Are you worried about strength?"

"Yes, I've detonated it many times.We used a lot of iron because it seemed unbearable with trees and leather. "

You've been through an explosion.The injuries... everyone seems to be fine. Good.

Is there any problem with the strength?The crate is just an exterior, and the contents are made of metal that can withstand the pressure.It looks so heavy... I don't want to put it in a wooden house.

"How's the production?"

"I did a lot of thinking, but it takes about half a day to fill...."

Luna's face seemed unintentional, but I think it's unexpectedly early.When I was trying to do something on my own, it was an estimate that it would take a day.

"Enough. Let's mass-produce magic equipment for filling and deal with it."

I wonder if the elves living near the palace could help us produce that much.

"Um... can I have a taste first?"

That's what Luna said and offered me a cup of carbonated water.First, taste. It's important.Put the carbonated water into your mouth lavishly.

Yeah, very ordinary carbonated water.I think carbonated drinks are a little weak. But that's enough.

"There is room for improvement, but there is no problem.Thank you. I want to sell this too, can I keep one? "

"Yes, I'm fine, I've made too much..."

Luna laughs bitterly.Of course, a prototype would be enough.Why did you make three of them?

Well, this was just the right time.I don't know who to sell it to, but I put one in my magic bag for now.Then the transcriber started making noises.I was a little surprised, but I took it out calmly and read the contents.

Climb the castle as soon as possible.

I don't have the usual long greeting.I can see you in a hurry.Did something go wrong?

It's time for ordinary people to go to bed, but I'm calling you at this hour.It's a hassle, but I think we should go because it looks like an anomaly.

"Sorry, he's in a hurry, so I'm going to the castle."

"Yes, be careful. Call me if you need anything."

It's really late at night, so I'm the only one going.But in the event of an attack or a monster, Luna and the others will have to be called.Just prepare your mind.

He rushed out into the usual room of the royal castle.There, the king was already waiting.

"Well done! Let's get down to business!"

Without a greeting, the king yells.

"Wait, wait, let me sit down for now."

"That's not it! Do you still have the liquor you just got!?"

The king sprinkles with a sword like a chopped feather.Such an urgent requirement... I wonder if there was a serious problem with alcohol...

I still have it with me, but what's the matter?

"Sell it now!"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"The civilians drank everything!!"

The king shouted without trying to hide his frustration.

Huh? Already?

I delivered it this morning. It seems that there were about 200 bottles and I drank them all in just one day. You drank too much.

"I was looking forward to it after work!It will be empty by the end of official business!! "

Subtle calculations don't fit.I don't think that consumption will be established unless I drink it at work.

"No, the civilians were working while drinking...."

"I don't care!Just serve the liquor now! "

I don't think it matters, but it's not that important to the king.Fortunately, the barrel that Bonanza wanted was still in the magic bag.It's an extra barrel anyway, so is it okay to sell it here?

"Don't rush me. I happen to carry it with me, I can get it out right away."

That's how I took the barrel out of my magic bag.Because it is difficult, I will also take out the soda fountain.If possible, I'd like to hear your thoughts.

"Mmm...? What is this box?"

"A device called a soda fountain. Carbonated water comes out of here.You can break the liquor with this. "

I've heard rumors that carbonated water is a refreshing drink for me, but it's an important item for drinking.It seems to be an indispensable ingredient for drinking highball and chewy.

I don't know if it will take root in this country, but if it has a good reputation, it can be sold.Natural carbonated water is sold in Milgia for ten gold coins per bottle, so you can make a lot of money if you hammer.

"Hmm...? What is carbonated water?"

It seems to be the first time I've heard of a king. Because Claire and everyone else didn't know, Alencia probably couldn't harvest natural carbonated water.

"It's bubbly water, but it's faster to actually try it."

Say so, serve the first glass and drink it yourself.Then he pours carbonated water into the other cup and serves it to the king.

The king gazed strangely at the bubbling water, and said afraid.

"Mmm... this is..."

The king inclined his head with his mouth.Looks like she hasn't come with the pin yet.Well, you can drink carbonated water as it is, but it's a drink that shows its true value when you mix it with something.

"You can have a drink later.But if you don't like it, you don't have to drink it. "

"Mm-hmm. Thank you for today.I will pay the price at a later date. You can go back today. "

The king said impatiently.Probably too much liquor to hear me. [M]

Actually, I should explain the soda fountain, but I'm leaving early today because I don't seem to be here.

It was such an irrelevant call... no, it's important to the king.She said that she was afraid of food resentment, and she was angry because of the momentum of her teenagers.Would it have been nice if it had been delivered by today?

Now, is carbonated water going to be popular in this country?Because it is a magical instrument that uses a lot of metal, I think the cylinder and soda fountain will be quite expensive.But if you can monopolize it, you'll make a fortune. Looking forward to it.
