Episode 30: Finding a Home
Take them all shopping in the morning.
"Master Agil has become a nobleman, so you have to have the right thing! Homes, clothes, furniture, and servants! You have as much as you need!
And the most tenacious one is Nonna.
"The house would be nice to have a big one, but after that, it would be nice to have it appropriate. Even better than that."
"Stop! In that case, you buy the laughter of those in Ichii. Can Master Agil be a laugh!?... Fortunately, the money is in the luxury. Let's go."
"I don't know about furniture or clothes, but I can do my chores without a servant, can't I?
Maria didn't miss cleaning the room even when she was in the inn.
They say they can't calm down until they cook, wash and cook.
"You got clothes and a house first. Come on, we just need to get it all together."
I'm sure Nonna describes the finished aristocracy of her parents' house, but I wouldn't even think about being a semi-accompanied aristocrat.
"Then let's buy clothes first. Kara! You're going to be a concubine too, so don't wear nasty clothes! Especially Mr. Melissa, who has too much body out. That's enough for the night."
He was a little sloppy, including me, on the tense nonna.
Carla groans "like a little aunt," and nonna in hell's ear pounds her ass because she just listens and grabs it.
"Ugh!" "Hih!
The punishment seemed to have worked well and the peaceful shopping was protected.
Nonna and Maria seem to have been strolling around the city from time to time. They quickly put on a hit and go around the store.
The fabrics in the store that are not brilliant luxury stores but tailor clothes for wealthy citizens and small and medium-sized aristocrats seem to be medium elegant and definite in arms.
Exactly. A woman's eyes on her clothes seem harsh.
"First of all, I want everyone's outfit and Lady Agil's outfit to be formal, approximate, and at least three indoor outfits."
"Regardless of the outfit, do we need to make new outfits to get to and from the outside?
"Yes. If a close aristocrat invites you, do you go in formal or everyday clothes? It's the same even if you're at home. You'll think you're wearing just the same clothes if you don't wear at least three, and if you don't increase the variety!
In the beginning, it was Nonna's private stadium, but the women were originally getting excited about their clothes.
Yeah, but not like this. Of course my clothes, I started choosing mine, and it was a pain in the ass, so it all decided while I was throwing round.
The women had two outfits and two indoor clothes when they had visitors. I bought four outfits and four spare clothes.
"Thank you! I'll tailor it as soon as I can, but there's plenty of time..."
"Then please start with Mr. Eigil's share. Women in order from dress."
"I understand. Was it Mr. Hardlett or would like to deliver it from the finished product?"
"No, I'm coming to pick it up"
That would happen, somehow I still don't have a home.
"? Are you on your left? Now, if you'll excuse me... 50 gold coins in exchange for the merchandise?
"No, I'll pay now"
When I gave him the gold coin, he started counting it in a polite manner.
"Hey, what's going on with fifty gold coins on your clothes? It didn't say the price."
"It depends on the tailoring of the store, so it doesn't have a price tag, like a companion."
"I'm starting to get scared. Wow, that's a great price."
"Yeah... I guess you're not mad at me for getting on with it, Mr. Agil"
"I am better than all of you because I have a small cloth to use!
Probably the majority of the price is my outfit and nonna's dress.
The other clothes are hemp and wool, whereas mine and Nonna's are made of silk.
I saw her belly-black side.
When it comes to fifty gold coins, it's the amount that a family of civilians who live on average here in Wangdu can live for more than five years.
Unless it's a store that does business with upstream aristocrats, it's not the amount you see early.
Apparently not, this store was dropped off with its head bowed not only by the store owner but by all its employees.
"I don't think there was anything unusually expensive about what I bought, but it's rare for people to buy dozens of clothes..."
is nonna's valve.
"I know about this one, but if you don't decide on a house first, it's gonna be a lot of inconvenience."
It's a comedy where nobles without homes shop.
"Well, let's look at the house first"
When it comes to buying a house, there are a lot of things about whether to build it or buy a used one, but this time we don't have time to build it from scratch.
If so, we'll have to find a good used property.
"I know very little about the house, too..."
No one has ever bought or sold a house in this, not just Nonna.
Then you should go the general way.
"Welcome. My name is [Milder] and I am buying and selling houses and land in Wangdu. How kind of you."
"It's a hardlet. I want to buy a used home. I'd like something as big as possible."
I'll try to convey all the other hopes of wanting a horse shop or bath for some of them.
"I see, who's on the budget?
"Right, a thousand gold coins." It's 800 gold coins!
Nonna interrupted.
Speaking of which, you said you'd buy furniture or something.
"There will be a slight shortage of large mansions with 800 pieces..."
I tried to tell him if he couldn't, but Milder would break in.
"But Master Hardlett was the one who had martial arts in the insurrectional uprising of the example! We've featured specially cheap listings. Can't we just!
That's the merchant, the information is fast.
If you look at the property first, it was decided to head to the site to be pushed on the back.
The location was close to the city centre, a district lined with homes of small and medium-sized aristocrats and wealthy merchants.
"Wow! It's hilarious ~. The kitchen is bigger than our inn too!
"This is amazing! I can't believe I can live here."
Maria and Melissa, who don't usually make a lot of noise, rarely thrive.
Melissa seems to be twice as committed to the house, maybe something used to happen.
Should I even ask in bed when I get a chance?
"The stables are the size of the stables, and I think there's two other Schwartz heads in there."
"The interior is also huge, so it looks like it can be properly furnished"
"The walls are also high and firm. They say security is easy."
They all seem to like it quite a bit.
But I haven't seen the key part yet.
"So what's going on with the bath?
"Yes, of course, it's the biggest sale of this building, so we have plenty of it."
The bath guided is certainly large, the bath itself is about the size of one room, and the bathtub is likely to contain about five people.
"This size tub is unusual in the nobleman's mansion..."
A tub is a hobby and not necessarily a noble mansion.
I'd say it's pretty rare when it's a tub for many to put together.
"This bathtub creases water from an external well into this one."
The point is, do you want to heat the water from the well once it's out in the big jar, and when the temperature is right, unplug it from the inside and put it in the tub?
Is it a prerequisite to hire a servant because if you do it yourself, instead of going outside and inside for a hassle?
"With all this size, the structure, the exterior walls are sturdy, and I know 800 pieces of gold coins are pretty cheap for even a large tub."
While everyone is convinced, Celia is the only one who looks at Milder silently.
"Then this document will be the contract, so as soon as you sign it, I will assign your rights."
I feel a little anxious about the haste and the attitude, but I confirm the contract, but the price and the location of the mansion are written precisely.
Celia grabs her hand when she tries to sign that she won't be able to delude herself with this.
"Dear Agil, this man is crazy"
Pull over to your ear and say it in a whisper.
"There's something a little suspicious about it, but the contract doesn't seem strange."
"No, I'm definitely lying. I don't know about the house contract, but I know who you're lying to. Believe me, no doubt about it."
Put the contract on the table in front of everyone if you want to say so much, and make sure slowly.
Milder pretended to be calm but was clearly in a hurry.
"Hey... what's wrong?
"It's not like that, but it's normal to make sure before signing, right?
Exactly what I find suspicious.
Did everyone feel something disturbing, look out at the contract from there.
And finally Melissa found something.
"This! The rent on the land is 100 gold coins a month!
Everyone makes a small scream and Milder's face catches on.
"Eight hundred houses, a hundred pieces of land in January... that's a lot of rent"
"Damn, that's so inexpensive selling homes, so naturally!!
"I see. So can I ask my peers if there are any sales methods like this around?
Milder stares at this one.
"Help yourself! But I hear that many of the new nobles have resentments. Shouldn't you prefer not to go out carelessly?
Cheap provocation, but I dare you to ride.
"Thanks for the concern, but I killed all 20 Kingsguards in the battle that made me that new nobleman, but will there be more outlaws out there?
Celia has a steel sword on her hips.
If you give a nasty answer, your neck will fly in a second.
"I have done nothing illegal! It is also written in the contract about the terms!
"You're right, I didn't say you were evil either. It's just a country thing, neglectful of business in the city, and I'm going to use it as a seed for conversation the next time it suits your majesty. It's hard to buy a house in the city..."
I don't plan to see His Majesty, and I won't have time to talk sloppily into it.
But it would work if you knew I was one of the new nobles whose eyes His Majesty had laid eyes on me.
Now Milder is turning bright blue and trembling.
But I have no intention of succeeding or overhauling a bad realtor.
"The land rent thing would be a mistake to describe, so fix it, and this house is in season. 80 gold coins if you repair them just a little" 700 pieces! "... there's nothing different about buying them for 700 pieces"
Milder doesn't have a choice.
But for him too, 700 gold coins would be hardly a loss to put in the repair costs.
It's too light a price for trying to scam people.
And I thought Nonna was less money bound, but this time changed my impression a lot.
Wouldn't the blood of a luxury aristocrat be a waste of money in the future?
Milder modified the contract with a pungent, relieved, indescribable face, and the letter-readable Nonna and Melissa, Maria, checked and signed it many times.
"You're a cheap shopper."
"I almost got my money fooled!
"Okay."
"... maybe I was sold like that too..."
"If I could read the letters... even me..."
Since the repair work will go in, the occupancy will be a little later, but this ensured the house.
Later, the furniture is fine, but Nonna's eyes are burning, so it would be nice to leave it to her.
Because for me, the sofas and stumps made by artisans don't change much.
In the end, it looks like Nonna and the others bought a variety of pieces of furniture for fifty gold coins while I was taking a cup of tea and tea treats at Celia's and Furniture Maker's.
Nonna had been pushed into Carla and Maria trying to make the table a hundred luxury pieces of gold coins.
"Having good furniture is an excellent aristocratic status. It's never too expensive..."
"You're not stupid! You're crazy about a table of 100 gold coins! Five couches of gold doesn't make any sense."
"I think it's a little strange, too. Hey, I think it would be fine if it was made properly."
"Is the table the same price as mine ah... it's like this tance because it's ten pieces for sale... haha..."
Not just Kara, but everyone attacked me intensively. Exactly. Nonna seems to have compromised.
All the furniture will be made by artisans, so it will take some time.
Nonna regained her mind when she asked him to bring it in to repair the house,
"The dishes are next. Dishes are the status of nobility, compromise is unacceptable!
I don't think I can help but keep the Knight's house and the traditional Count's house together.
I've fallen from nobility to the lowest level of slavery, and I've had a lot of hard feelings.
Luckily I still have the money and I'll let you like it.
We're going after Carla and Maria to contain the rampant nonna.
I guess you can't be so impotent because there are two people with a common-flavored sense of money.
"The problem is you're a servant."
Celia speaks up.
You're right, you can buy things, but people are the hardest.
Luckily, it's a lady's belt, except for me, and I have Maria, who likes housework, so cleaning and laundry cooking won't be a problem.
But I can feel free to let you do the bath water draw and even the fire, and Nonna won't be convinced that the servant is absent.
When it comes to hard work that women can't do, it means men live together, and if something happens to them that will get their hands on them, there will be extra blood, and it's not a good idea to let the untrustworthy into the house in the first place.
"How was it when you hired a servant?
Ask Nonna, who is making a scene around the silver dishes.
"I'm sorry. I'm not sure..."
Oh well, how can a noble lady hire a servant, etc.?
"But the family order we were in was definitely the second son of a neighbor's house... er, the butler belongs to the Knight's House..."
I can't help but ask about upscale servants from the aristocracy, but they may not have had the chance to have a conversation with the average servant if it's Nonna's position.
"Isn't it usually the edge of an intimate house or something like that?
Melissa pinches her mouth with a blur.
"We were not that big a house either, but we were in business and there were a few of us... I don't know about the noble house"
That's enough, whatever someone you can trust anyway.
But when I say lucky, all I know is Bruno and Captain Eirich, and then Andrei.
If you want to hire someone who knows Assault Squad face-to-face, etc., you should also speak to the Bandits.
"So you came to me?"
We visited Bruno's house together.
He rents a house and seems to be more calm and looking for a home than we are.
"Agil...... no, should I call you Sir Hardlett?
Each captain, including Bruno, has been given a knight's lord, and as a new nobleman, he plans to stay in the king's capital just like me.
He said his last name was [Renster] and he took it from a place name he used to live in.
"It's not necessary in a private setting, Sir Renster."
When I tear him up, I wave to him to stop.
"Nevertheless, Eirich...... Sir has received an associate baron above us. Besides, I'm running to reinforce the national army, so I don't think we're talking about very servants."
"Then I'll have to ask you."
Unfortunately, Bruno raised his hand.
"I just got here a year ago, too, huh? Besides, it almost takes a mercenary corps, and there's hardly anyone I know I can trust. Barely......"
Twenty years old from behind. A woman there appears, not to say an amazing beauty, but I felt a calming atmosphere as a decoy.
Above all, the belly where the child lived was sticking out loud.
"It's Marie. She and her family are trustworthy. So when I bought a house, I thought I'd ask my sister or brother to help me."
Bruno caresses Marie gently, leaving Marie to herself too.
In the end, I thought I'd curse it, confront it and stick my hand in Kara's groin, but if she gets angry and jumps at me, it's disastrous, so I'll stop.
"We can't help this time, but we're new aristocrats with few allies with each other. Talk to me about anything you can do to help."
And there's nothing different about it.
He's quite a good man, and he's sure of his strength.
But now Andrei... Loricondandy is the only one left.
"You're a servant... it's hard indeed. Even the employees we hire used to run away with money."
A classic when talking to Andrei, he talks as he chooses liquor across the counter.
"I'm not interested, but your house is full of beautiful women. It's dangerous to hire a man. I'm not interested."
"I don't want any extra blood."
Hmm. Andrei laughs lightly and continues.
The usual female employee is blushing in the shadow of a pillar.
"Is work a heavy labor?
"You pumped water from a well for a bath and burned a cauldron. Anything else cleaning or laundry?"
Maria's willing to do her chores, but she'd better be there to help.
"I don't mean heavy labor to the extent of water intake... you do. I have an idea. Follow me."
Andrei headed for a stone building, a large but quite painful size, which would not be a noble or rich house.
Andrei speaks to the woman cleaning the entrance.
"Aurelia, how are you?
"Mr. Andrei! Thanks for everything!
The brunette, known as Aurelia, bowed her head to peck.
I don't suppose the woman is the year to say girl, but she was very small and skinny.
Everyone's gaze pierces Andrei, including mine.
I've told everyone about Andrei's sexual preferences before.
"What can I do for you today?
"I need to talk to you about something. Is Dorothea here?
"Yes. I think my mother is in the courtyard right now.... and the people behind you?
"Oh, they're fine, I know them."
Is the girl wary of us, throwing out the cunt and sticking to Andrei, that attitude seemed more to me against a gentle father than a man.
The courtyard...... was like an easy field with various objects planted rather than the original garden for viewing.
The woman in care at its center, there were a bunch of little kids around.
"Oh, Andrei. What's wrong with you today? Bring in a lot of people."
"Andrei!" "Uncle!" "Kinniku"
The children flock to Andrei at once.
The woman would be about forty years old, she is not small in stature but she had an impressive lean hand and sprinkled cheeks.
Nonna puts her hands on her mouth as if surprised to see her thin, thin body.
"Dorothea, aren't you eating satisfied again?
"Hehe, if the kids don't starve, that's fine. Plus, I'll be getting potatoes soon, so I'll be fine."
Andrei takes out the blown potatoes he was putting out of his pocket at the liquor store, but Dorothea gives them to the kid next door as they are.
"Agil... what is this place..."
Exactly what I noticed, too.
This is an orphanage where unaccompanied children, abandoned children, are taken and raised.
"What are you talking about, ladies and gentlemen? Everybody stay in play, don't step on the field!
Looks like the kids started chasing after us while showing interest.
We are led to a table in the building.
Worn out. That would be inconvenient for a meal, too.
"I gave away the original fallen merchant's mansion cheaply, but I can't even repair anything."
I'm sorry about the borough shop, and Dorothea, who laughs, seemed happy behind her back with her slender face.
She was originally the daughter of a merchant, but she said she jumped out of her parents' house and built this orphanage without being able to watch the starving children in the city.
Andrei said he frequently assisted the orphanage with food and such.
"Well, let me tell you something, this guy is a new nobleman born out of a commotion over the last king's collapse."
"Well! Was it noble, this is disrespectful"
"They don't need that kind of gratitude. So they bought a house in Wangdu, and they're looking for a servant, but they don't know each other very well, so they can't find it."
"So... with my kids?
Dorothea's eyes narrow just a little.
"Oh, if you're a servant, you'll be living in and feeding me dinner. I thought it might make things a little easier for you."
"My kids are good kids, but they don't teach you the courtesy to work in noble mansions, do they?
"That's not a problem. I don't even know how to be polite. All I care about is nonna...... its big breasts"
"Become!"
"Oh, so... can you tell me what your job is?
"Do you want to help with water intake and fire, and then housework?"
Dorothea doesn't seem to be riding at all.
They may be worried that the children they serve will be sold out or made comforters.
"Dorothea, I know I haven't been with this guy that long, but I'm not a bad guy. What you're worried about doesn't happen."
"If that's what Andrei says..."
"Look at that. Do these women look unhappy?
"I'm happy ~," "Me too," "Night is long." Shut up, pervert! "" I am a squire!
Dorothea smiled back.
"Well, I'm going to have a pretty good eye for people, but they seem happy. So how many people can I serve?
"For now, maybe three, water pumping is a lot of heavy labor, so I have trouble being a very small kid. I'll prepare a place to sleep and a meal over here."
"Then... Aurelia, call [Chlor] [Mitty] [Alma]"
Eventually, one boy and two girls appeared naughty.
"It's chlor! …"
"I say Mitty, thank you"
"Alma... it's... it's nice to meet you"
A boy named Chlor is strong but trembling.
Mitty seems to be the oldest and calmer.
And a girl with a face out of Mitty's back is Alma, the smallest and most blatantly threatened of all.
"Chloe is twelve, a little busy somewhere, but she has strength. Mitty is fourteen and everyone's sister, anything can be clever. Alma is eleven. I'm a little scared... you're good at sewing."
"Nice to meet you"
I offer my hand to shake hands, but other than Mitty, I can't seem to get any nervous.
Andrei speaks up as he follows.
"You guys have been feeding Dorothea before. Just work a little and make it easier. Especially Chloe. You're a man. Do it right."
"Whoa! Of course you are. You're not scared!
Chloe is going to shake my hand thoroughly.
That's how good you should be.
Alma also comes close with a puffy swing.
I stroked his head and he silently went back behind Mitty.
"Even if you say you will work for us, it is in the capital city of Wang. It would be easy to come back here again if things were to happen. Don't take it so hard."
I was told that I would be back again and the children's faces would be brightened.
It's only natural that they still want to fall in love with their mother of their children.
That is also proof that Dorothea is doing a good mother.
"See you later for more information. Now that the house is under repair, I'll come back and tell you when it's done."
That's how I take my seat.
"And the master. Let everyone eat something with this guy, and Dorothea's going to go back to being a good woman."
Andrei nodded small without saying anything when he secretly gave him a smaller forehead.
"Nevertheless, he seems to be admired a lot, but I didn't know the master had a charitable hobby..."
It stops when I say it.
That's not true, he was supposed to be helping them by being struck by pitiful children and devotional women.
Never defile that noble aspiration with impure delusions.
"Toddler girl...... no it's not sneaky for a child to starve, that's all"
Let's not ask.
"Sometimes you come here... it's a bunch of shit. Toddler Girls... No, the kids."
I can't do what I didn't ask anymore.
Dorothea's eyes are suspicious.
Aren't you letting dangerous people in and out?
Andrei, who laughs thinly with me dropping his shoulders, could have looked quite hardboiled behind him.
"Did you hear that? They're paying for their food, and there's 30 of them, and they don't have 10 copper coins a meal."
……
"Table of 100 Gold Coins"
"Huh!"
"Some kids are sitting in broken barrels with broken chairs. My butt would hurt."
……
"Sofa with five gold coins"
"Huh!"
Behind the two men walking in front of each other, Kara's thorns were piercing Nonna.
From now on, Nonna has learned to save a little.
