The Support Manages the Adventurer Parties!! Volume 1 Chapter 9

Chapter 9: The feeling of a regular schedule

There is a reason as to Sarah’s confusion over the concept of a schedule.

All the people of this world, not just adventurers have only have a vague sense of what a schedule is.

While they do have months such as, the month of dawn, month of the Green Start and the Month of the Blue moon. There is no fixed time period called a week.

Instead they bundle approximately 3 days together and count them as 1,2,3. It is one month when 16 of these pa.s.ses.

So, adventurers live with a sense of yesterday, today and tomorrow. Many quests also take place over 3 days.

 

Thankfully they have determined that Wheat planting day is the beginning of the year so, they do somewhat understand.

Most j.a.panese businessmen are dividing one day into four parts and separate it using weeks, this creates 20 parts to schedule meetings and other work in a week.

Of course. I do not have a schedule table, nor a business book with me.

A business book&h.e.l.lip; Could I sell one? It is useless, I have no capital to create one.

Well wealthy merchants may feel differently about it.

The farmers and adventurers are people that live day by day.

If I said, “A meeting between the high noon bell and evening bell, five days from now”, they would either be confused or forget about it due to drinking. (TN: The translation was actually noon bell but&h.e.l.lip;)

This is a world where mechanical clocks do not exist yet.

The bells of churches will inform you of the time using mysterious methods I do not understand. While it would be nice to have one in this town, they are very expensive.

Either way I have arranged a way to secure Adventurers. Next it seems necessary to find a way to organise my meetings with adventurers.
