Magi Craft Meister Chapter 316 The salt!

[A wagon is spotted moving through the Togo mountain pa.s.s. It seems to be Roland, the merchant. He is accompanied by an unfamiliar face. Probably a newcomer.]

Laojun got to know about Roland’s arrival promptly by the info received from surveillance system, Kous.h.i.+n.

[He is a merchant who supplies goods which can’t be made in Kaina village. He brings no harm, so guard him in secret.]

With that order, Land S was now secretly guarding Roland till Helme river. Of course, the person himself, Roland, wasn’t even slightly aware of this.

“Ah! The merchant uncle came!”

Seeing the girl waving at him from the bridge, Roland also waved back.

“That’s Hanna-chan. Energetic as usual.”

And when the wagon came near the bridge,

“Oho, this was made of wood before but it’s stone now. Looks st.u.r.dy.”

Saying that to himself, Roland advanced, walking his horse. Hanna ran back to the village to inform them of Roland’s arrival.

“Executive director, what is that?”

Roland looked at the direction Bothe was pointing. And his eyes opened wide.

“What in the world is that?”

It was Jin’s castle.

Roland arrived late in the afternoon so he decided to talk business the next day and spend the night at mayor Gibbeck’s house, as usual.

“Ehh, Erik didn’t come?!”

Barbara exclaimed, looking disappointed.

“I am sorry, he has also been appointed with the duty of technology manager, so he has gotten quite busy. Please try to understand.”

br>“I… wonder if I should head out to Alban… But I also don’t want to leave this village…”

Barbara grumbled. To which Gibbeck rebuked,

“Oi oi, this is not the time for that, right?”

And then Gibbeck started talking to Roland again. He explained how Jin was the owner of this land now.

“I-I see… So Jin-san is this village’s…”

“Yes, for the next 50 years, he will be the owner.”

Gibbeck summarized and narrated Jin’s achievements.

“So something like that happened… and I didn’t hear a thing, even though I was in the capital.”

It all happened inside the royal castle, so it isn’t much of a surprise that the common merchants don’t know of it.

“And so, the building in question is Jin’s ‘castle’.”

“Castle, eh… I don’t know what I should say… It is very Jin-like.”

“If you would like to spend the night there, I could talk to the representative Butler A.”

“N-no, I will just stay here, where I am more comfortable, if that’s okay with you.”

Roland said panickedly.

After that, Roland brought up the matter that was troubling him.

“Well, you see, there’s one thing that’s bothering me.”

“Oho?”

Then Roland went on to explain how the salt was stolen and he couldn’t sell any.

“There’s no salt, eh?… That is troubling. Even at my house, the amount of salt left is very scarce. I think it is the same with other houses, as well.”

“I am truly sorry. After this, as soon as I get to the shop, I will send salt here even if I have to use horses.”
