Chapter 774: Wilson, A Small Entrepreneur

Chapter 774 – Wilson, a Small Entrepreneur

My name is Wilson.

I’m the chairman of a small trading company based in Village Five.

My hobby is collecting buttons.

Yes, buttons of clothes.

Buttons are awesome.

Each button is handmade by a craftsman.

No two buttons are the same.

And each button has a story of its own.

The story of how the person who wore the clothes with that button lived…

I know.

I did not ask you to understand.

However, please take care of your own buttons.

Afternoon.

Before coming to Village Five, eating two meals a day was my daily routine but since coming to Village Five, I have been eating three meals a day.

At first, I didn’t think I could eat that much but I never thought that I would even want to eat that much and might even eat more.

Maa, the reason for that is as clear as day.

It’s the bread I had been eating.

The bread I had been eating was as hard as a rock and tasted like poop but it could satisfy my stomach.

Since I came to Village Five, I no longer eat that kind of rock-hard bread anymore.

It can’t be helped since soft and delicious bread are available anywhere here and they can be bought at the same price.

My food expenses have increased since I eat three times a day now but I don’t really worry about it since business has always been good.

I’m thankful for that.

The only problem is that my stomach has started getting bigger.

My wife and sons are even teasing me for it.

Ah, what can I do?

Can I even think of how bigger my stomach would be if a hamburger set meal is before me?

Let’s concentrate on the hamburger set meal in front of me now.

Burger steak garnished with grilled vegetables between soft bread and vegetable soup.

For such a sumptuous meal, I only need to pay eight medium copper coins.

And the taste is outstanding.

The chef of this restaurant, which serves hamburger set meals, is a top contender in cooking contests so it’s understandable.

No, it would be better to say that he is a chef who was trained by the oni maids, who are regular winners. They teach Village Five’s residents from time to time in order to increase the skills of the chefs of Village Five.

I’m sure that’s how it is.

Ah, truly delicious.

It makes me want to open a restaurant of my own to spread this deliciousness.

Even though I look like this, I have a little confidence in my cooking.

I can’t make it as good as the hamburger set meal here though.

While I was enjoying my after-meal drink after eating my hamburger set meal, an employee of mine came to the restaurant.

I’m sure it shouldn’t be his break yet.

Given how restless he is, did he come here to inform me about something important?

「The Goroun Company is making its move. They are gathering people, especially carpenters.」

….

Goroun Company.

It’s a major business firm in the kingdom whose influence can’t be ignored even in Village Five but that’s not even what should be looked out for.

The most important thing about them is that they are the purveyor of the village chief of Village Five.

The fact that the Goroun Company is making a move that they don’t usually do means they are ordered by the village chief to do it for him.

Of course, we can’t ignore the possibility that it was the acting village chief’s order.

However, it is inconceivable that the acting village chief will ignore the village chief’s intent.

When something big happens, it means that the village chief himself permits it.

In short, there is no problem.

The Goroun Company is doing something not usual.

It is absolutely profitable.

I must make my move fast.

There’s a possibility that we may not have enough funds.

I have to consider borrowing from my father’s store.

The village chief wishes to build a temple on a mountain near Village Five.

Not a temple?

Shrine?

They’re the same.

And a magnificent building was completed.

We were involved with the procurement of building materials so we made a profit there.

Yes, we did desu.

And we did not cheat on anything for greed.

This is all for Village Five’s development!

And for the gastronomy of Village Five!

I’m not lying even a bit.

To be honest, I don’t want Village Five to disappear.

That is why I would like them to collect more taxes but the village chief and the acting village chief don’t want to….frustrating.

No, I’m sure they have deeper plans than mine, a chairman of a small company. They must have plans I could never think of.

I only need to believe and follow their lead.

-0-

Yeah yeah.

With the construction of the shrine, there has been a great change in Village Five.

Until now, the south side of Village Five has been the most popular and most developed.

The road leading to Shashaato City’s there after all.

Shashaato City is in the southwest direction of Village Five.

The west side also benefited from this.

After the teleportation gate was built, the value of that road decreased but the south side was still the most popular place in Village Five.

The east side and north side were not happy about it.

Though no one’s saying it out loud.

There was definitely dissatisfaction.

I think they took that dissatisfaction into consideration.

The mountain where the newly built shrine is located is to the northeast of Village Five.

Right desu.

A road leading to the shrine will be built desu!

The residents of the east and north side of Village Five have already paid for the project.

Those who do not have money also participated in the construction of the road as labor force.

The moment the acting village chief granted the permission, the road was built at an incredible speed.

It will improve the popularity of the east and north sides after all!

The village chief and the acting village chief cared about the east and north sides too!

Hahaha, you south side and west side must be jealous!

…..

No, the residents of the south and west sides also paid and helped build the shrine and the road.

It’s all for Village Five.

Right desu.

Even if something is done on the south or west side, the east and north sides will cooperate generously.

However, this is a wide road.

How many carriages can line up here?

More than twenty(around 50 meters wide).

Since it is the village chief and the acting village chief’s plan, this road will probably be used for some kind of event.

I’m looking for it desu.

Both sides of the road are separated by stakes and ropes.

This is where the stores will be located.

The basic rights are owned by Village Five and the councilor said that they will sell them to those who wish to buy them using draw lots.

Therefore, the separated areas are marked with symbols and numbers.

From the information I gathered, it seems like food and beverage-related items will be included.

I guess they are thinking of serving those who are going to the shrine to pray.

I see.

I would like to participate too.

Even if it’s impossible to run it myself due to the amount of work required, it’s not a bad idea to open up a restaurant.

Should I put my hope in others then?

While I was thinking so, an employee of my store came running.

He seems to be in a hurry.

Has the Goroun Company made a move again?

「Chairman’s child has collapsed desu.」

…..

Huh?

W-w-what do you mean?

Did my father give my son a dangerous job?

He said he had recently acquired some rare cloth….

No no, my father would never do such a thing.

If it was a job that would make him collapse, my father would rather do it himself.

Yes, my father is that kind of person.

So, is he ill or something?

Or was there an accident?

I’m worried about my son.

Let’s hurry up and go to father’s store.
