“This is …”

That’s how the guild length settled.

Turi used this hair ornament only during the baptismal ceremony. Was there something at that time? As she suddenly disappeared from her darling smile, she turned to Benno for help.

The guild head has hardened, is it okay?

Unlike me who was worried, Benno showed a smile as if a carnivorous animal licked his tongue for a moment, and smiled with a smile.

“Isn’t the hair ornament the guild leader was looking for?”

“Do you sell this?”

The chief guild opened his eyes and looked at Benno and I alternately. I’m scared of a biting face that doesn’t have a smile.

…… Lutz, sly! Hiding behind Mr. Benno!

I tried to sneak behind Benno, but Benno grabbed his shoulder and got out.

“Oh, it’s going to be a winter handicraft”

“Winter handwork … would you sell it now?”

The chief guild tried to pick up my Turi hair ornament. I rushed my hair and put it in my bag, with a shining eye that would never return.

“No, this is what I made for Turi. I can’t sell it”

“Let’s just get this out”

Three fingers were raised so that they slammed. Probably it is a sign representing the price, but I don’t know what it means.

Looking at Benno while looking down, he smiles deeply.

“Hmm, that’s right … If you give me a little more color, I can make it preferentially. What do you think, Mine?”

“That’s what Benno says,”

I can’t think of any objection. Follow Benno with a smiling smile.

“If I make it now, it will be enough for the granddaughter’s winter baptism ceremony. Yes, Mine?”

“Yes, all right”

… Oh, I see. The granddaughter who saw Turi’s hair ornament at the summer baptism said he wanted something similar.

In Benno’s words, I finally understood the situation.

The head of a commercial guild cannot find a hair ornament even though it is supposed to have the most information about what is distributed in this city.

My family just made it for Turi, it wasn’t for sale, it wasn’t selling similar decorations, and the winter baptism was getting closer and harder.

“… I only have about a month, but can I make it?”

Speaking of that, my mother says that it’s so busy in the current season that I can’t make it very much, even in the winter when I don’t have to be trapped in snow because it takes time and thread to make small flowers. It was. But if you get money, it doesn’t matter if you get it.

It will take a little time to buy yarn and ask about his granddaughter’s hope, but it is still in time for the winter baptism.

“Yes. This isn’t for sale, but there’s no problem with making it new. Lutz?”

“Oh, I can do it”

When I and Lutz crawl and undertake, Benno, who was listening to the story while whispering next to me, added a grinning smile.

“But it’s a shame that you can’t buy or sell it even if you make it because of the fact that they aren’t registered …”

“Kuh … Then let’s order after temporary registration …”

It seems that Benno and the guild leader have decided easily.

Benno is happy to be able to register temporarily without being overwhelmed, without providing paper information, and tries to leave the guild head room.

“Well, are you going down?”

“Wait. Kids should wait here for a guild card. I want to order.”

Benno looks back with a smile with a slight palpation of the words of the guild chief.

“If I leave it alone, I don’t know what kind of rough it will be, so I’ll be waiting here”

“No, no, it seems to be well-kept children. Isn’t there any problem without Benno?”

The smile of the guild chief seems to be planning something even though it looks kind. I felt Bengo’s hand unintentionally because it seemed to be rolled up.

“Because this is the first place, I want Benno to be there”

“It seems so”

With a proud smile, Benno sits down on a hard chair like a sofa in the guild room.

When I picked me up and sat on my thighs, I squeezed and said that I did it well and boiled my head. It looks pretty good.

After that, I moved to a location next to Benno, and Lutz sat next to it. The head of the guild sat down in front and the business talk about hair ornaments started.

“Now I have one hair ornament. I will ask you for the baptism in winter”

“Well, what color flowers do you like? My grandson’s favorite color or a color that matches my hair …”

“I’m not very familiar with that, it’s fine”

Referring to my tote bag, the guild leader said so. However, it’s a problem even if you can say that.

Perhaps Benno should have paid a fee, so I would like to make hair ornaments that will make my granddaughter happy. Grandpa who would have gathered information for his grandchildren must be a granddaughter’s smile priceless.

“If you can talk to your grandson, can I ask you for your wishes? I think it will please you.”

“I want to surprise you with a secret”

Out! Annoying surprises!

Secret gifts will only be appreciated if you are familiar with your preferences and wishes and you are right when you want them.

Grandpa, who says that she is not familiar with the granddaughter’s favorite color, is quite difficult.

“… But, hair ornaments need to be matched with clothes, and if they don’t match the color of the hair, or if you have already prepared other decorations, it can be very troublesome. Maybe? “

“Is that so?”

For winter christenings, costumes should already be prepared. Maybe the granddaughter and her mother are preparing things for her hair.

“Because I make it from scratch, I think it’s much more important to give something that suits your preference than to something that doesn’t suit your taste. A happy face is better than a surprised face. Do n’t you think? ”

“Oh, I see …”

The head of the guild turned up to think about something while stroking a broom.

“Did you say Mine?”

“Yes”

“Would you like to come to my shop?”

“Rejected!”

Benno immediately dismissed, faster than I would react.

“It’s bigger than Benno’s store and has been in business for a long time. The conditions are good? It’s not yet officially an apprentice at the end of the baptism ceremony, so it can be an apprenticeship How about? ”

How is it? However, I don’t intend to do anything unreasonable that suddenly changes the store.

“There is an irresponsible return to Benno-san”

“Fum, I’ll give you back”

“Eh? Um …”

I have refused, but have not refused. Benno ’s mood suddenly drops when he ’s afraid of the long-running guild.

¡Benno squeezed me as he struck the eyebrows sharply and tapped the temple with his finger.

“Mine, please answer the guild leader clearly. No, no.”

“Oh, I refuse!”

“Mu, I’m sorry, but I’ll give up this time. If I’m scared, I can’t really say anything”

What is this time! ?

I’m going to sing really!

“Is it okay to come to my granddaughter Frida tomorrow? Is it better to decide early?”

“Are you okay with Benno-san?”

As a lesson today, “Do not meet with the guild leader alone” is engraved in the heart. It ’s dangerous to meet up with no one to deal with the guild leader.

However, the guild head shook his head.

“Unfortunately, Benno and I will have a meeting. To meet girls of the same age, isn’t it necessary to be accompanied by an uncle?”

“… Yes, if they are children”

In the fight between Benno and the guild leader, I imagined my granddaughter Frieda’s hope, and I suddenly stumbled upon the words to meet girls of the same age.

Benno struck next to me who agreed with the guild’s opinion.

Yeah! ? Something was wrong! ?

Comparing Benno, who revived the eyebrows, and the guild leader, whose smile was revived, realized that he had made a detour. If you agree with “children”, you can’t even get to follow Marc.

How about what to do, turn his head desperately, look around and look at both sides.

“Yes, I’m making it together, so it’s good for Lutz to go, right? This is kids!”

It ’s too scary to go alone. Benno’s expression was slightly tempered by a proposal to involve Lutz.

“Well, that’s fine. Then how about 3 bells in the central square tomorrow? Let’s pick up Frida”

“Yes”

An employee with a temporary membership card came in as if waiting for the story to come together. Apparently, the temporary registration seemed to be over.

“This is a commercial guild temporary card. It’s also a kind of magical tool. It’s always necessary for business talks. For more information, ask Benno. The two cards follow the store’s apprenticeship. That’s why we can now go upstairs. “

A mysterious card that reflects in rainbow colors when exposed to light with a thin metal card. There is too much difference from what I usually touch. It ’s a fantasy card, no matter where you look. There is no choice but to blink the eyes of the magical tools.

“Let’s finally push each person’s blood against his card to make them aware. Then, others won’t be able to use it on their own”

“Wow! Blood?”

Is blood necessary for magic? It is new to my memory that I used to hurt my finger with contract magic and pressed my blood.

“Let’s give up, Mine”

“Lutz …”

“Take your hand because it’s good … I can’t do it myself anyway?”

“Wow …”

ば If you put out your crying hand, Lutz struck your fingertip. Press the blood that has been swelled into the card and soak it.

At that moment, the card glowed.

“Uhya !?”

¡It was a card that only flashed for a moment, and after that it did not change at all. It was a beautiful thing that hadn’t changed at all in the sense that no blood stains or fingerprints remained.

Magical tools may be useful but scary.

Lutz instinctively finishes work, probably because I was scared to bleed or see the card glowing and panicking.

“This is the end of registration.”

“Thank you for your help”

We chase Benno as he left the room as soon as he had no need, and we left the commercial guild.

I’m just tired of registering.

“Please come home. It looks like you have successfully registered.”

Marc was waiting for me when I returned to Benno. Sometimes a black smile like a merchant also emerges, but basically, Marc’s smile as a friend feels healing.

“Oh, it was a complete victory today thanks to Mine”

“Well, it’s rare”

“I didn’t see that damn old man”

“… Looks like something tricky”

The impression of Marc’s guild length seems to be awkward.

I sincerely agree.

“Please come here. We are ready to settle the prototype.”

“Well, do you want to end it crisply?”

Marc opens the door of Benno’s room and invites us. When I heard that the prototype was settled, I raised my hand.

“Yes! There is a request. Can you tell me about money?”

“Ah?”

Benno’s eyebrows just because he doesn’t understand the meaning. Marc leans the same way.

“Well, I’ve never touched money … I can read numbers, but the numbers and money aren’t tied well. I don’t know how much I should pay. “

“Wow !?”

Not only Benno, but also Marc and Lutz shouted.

“Gold, I’ve never touched … Well, not a merchant, isn’t it unusual for a child of that year? No, isn’t it unusual?”

“… Yes, Mine has never been to his mother. Because he falls down”

“Oh …”

Lutz’s words leaked a sigh of convincing from everyone’s mouth.

“I have never seen money exchanged with merchants even though I calculated at the gate, and when I went to order with Mr. Marc, I actually exchanged money just by issuing a purchase order. I didn’t, and when I went to the market with my mom, I saw you paying a small coin, but I don’t know what it is. “

Marc with a cloth bag in my words advanced in front of Benno, and Jalari and Marc spread coins on the desk.

“Now let me tell you what kind of money you are”

There were three types of copper-like brown coins and large and small silver coins and gold coins.

Lutz screams and sees gold coins on the desk.

“This small copper coin is 10 lions. The medium copper coins with holes are 100 lions, the large bronze coins are 1000 lions, the small silver coins are 10000 lions, and so on.

It ’s so easy to learn that it ’s just 10 cards that are big and can be exchanged.

Lutz shouts a little screaming next to me listening convincingly. Apparently, it was completely lost when the digit increased.

Let’s study hard in winter.

If you have your own money, you probably don’t want to calculate the money.

Benno brings six prototype papers and places them on the desk.

“A sheet of parchment is a small gold coin. The size of a contract that you usually use is one large silver coin. If it is about this size, there are two small silver coins.”

2 small silver coins in postcard size …

I knew that the paper was expensive, but I can see it well when it is arranged with money in front of me. Speaking of which, it should have been said that the contract size is one month of my father’s salary.

“This time, I will decide the price based on parchment. Forin’s paper is 2 small silver coins, and quality Trombe paper is 4 small silver coins. (19459158] It ’s another, I ’ll ask you to divide the bills for the girder by 50% as the cost. ”

“Yes”

Since a prototype was made, it will be firmly incorporated into the cost when ordering tools and raw materials.

When I asked, Benno grinned.

“How about your share of 20% this time? If the price goes down as a result of purchasing wood from the timber shop or distributing paper, it will need to be reviewed again. …… “

“That’s fine”

When I whispered and looked at Lutz, Lutz also whispered with a face that was not well understood.

Benno put a don and a calculator on the desk and pushed them out in front of Lutz.

“Lutz, do you know how much it costs with 3 folins and 3 trombones?”

Lutz, who had moved the calculator a little and entered three forins, but then stretched and bent his finger, swung his head. Even if single-digit calculation is possible, it seems to be raised if the number increases or the types increase.

“What is Mine?”

“Well, ’32 is 6 and 34 ‘, so it’s 18 small silver coins. That’s 20%, so 3 small silver coins and 6 large copper coins are the share of me and Lutz. It will be one small silver coin and eight large copper coins. “

Marc laughed back behind Benno staring at me with a slight blink.

“It’s correct. It’s amazing because it can be calculated immediately without using a calculator.”

In my case, I can’t use a calculator, so I have to practice with Lutz during the winter. I want to be as familiar as possible with my surroundings.

“The rest is the cost of Lutz slabs and brushes, but this is not collected from the individual. Two large coins are drawn from Lutz’s share.”

Lutz pulled two large copper coins and received some stone plates and brushes instead.

“You can give cash, or you can leave it in a commercial guild if you have a problem with the storage location, but what do you do?”

Apparently, the commercial guild seems to have a bank-like function.

I am scared to have a lot of cash, and I want to save someday to buy books.

“Please give me a large bronze coin. I will give it to my mom.

It was a dream of the Reino era to filthy family with the first salary. Can I make my dream come true here?

“I understand. What do you do with Lutz?”

“I am the same as Mine”

“Is that so”

I got 8 large coins and matched Benno’s card with my card. After the sound of playing a pin and string, the card returned, but nothing has changed.

“You can now get your money on the third floor of the guild. Of course, you have to go to practice.”

“That’s right”

Benno smiles at me when I turn the card and turns, and Marc agrees.

Lutz also received 6 large copper coins after matching the cards in the same way. My heart is raised by the cold weight in my hands.

“I have money for the first time”

“Is this what we made?”

Reflecting the number of failures until the paper we were able to convince was completed, and looking at the money filled me with excitement.

“When spring comes, make a lot of paper and sell it a lot”

“Rice”

As I was mesmerized by the first money, I looked up at Benno with full satisfaction.

“This is all done, right?”

However, Benno concealed my words and played my forehead with a finger.

“Hey, don’t say stupid things. Your battle will be tomorrow. When you’re not an adult, you’re going to fight with that damn granddaughter?”

“Eh? But you’re children and girls?”

I don’t think it would be a battle. I’m just going to hear Frida’s hope, and the guild leader isn’t at the meeting, is there anything he can do?

“According to rumors, it is a damn granddaughter granddaughter who looks like the most grandfather of a number of grandchildren.”

“Oh, grandfather resembles?”

I imagined a girl with a guild face, but I can’t imagine it at all.

“Well, it’s just enough to bring Lutz. Don’t be ruined. Lutz, you don’t have to go into the conversation, so if Mine seems to be pulled out like today, absolutely Stop, I don’t know where the old fox is lurking. “

“I understand”

Lutz crawls with a serious face, but is it necessary to make it to that level? Is your partner a girl before baptism?

When I leaned my head, the coins rubbed in my hands and made a noise.

“… Speaking of that, how much did you pay for Frida’s hair ornament? I didn’t understand the sign of the guild’s finger”

“The sign from the spear is three small silver coins. Let them be colored and four small silver coins”

Benno’s words are scary. Considering the price of the thread, it’s too much for one hair ornament.

“Oh, eh !? It’s too much!”

“Fine finish. It will be an advertisement for winter handicrafts, and it will be related to sales.”

“That ’s the correction of money …”

My first wish is a mist of Benno.

“Do you think I’ll make that a serious opponent?”

“No, not at all”

After answering, hangs down.

There isn’t much pressure here because you have to make a decoration that only matches four small silver coins.

“Even if I consider my referral fees, fees, and costs, will your share be around 50-60%? I’m fine. It’s okay. Finally I found it and the decoration you have now The guilt of screwing up during the busy winter preparations, and a special baptism ceremony for the winter baptism that nobody has put on before the sale.

Do n’t worry too much.

How much is the reason for putting a rip-off?

Please take it seriously.
