Chapter 10: The First House

「My name is Carlos Gene who is handling land and structures. I am very thankful of being able to be called today」

In the reception room of the mansion, one merchant was bowing his head to me.

「I’m Lucio Martein. Please」

I let Carlos have a seat.

「I am very honored to be of help to the son of Martein House. Please ask me whatever you want」

He’s somehow polite. No, maybe he’s VERY polite you could say.

Thinking what would happen next, I somehow feel bad about it.

「I’m sorry, it’s not something that Martein House is going to buy, I’m going to buy it using the pocket-money I earned」

It’s an adult that I met the first time, so I talked with child-mode.

「That’s why, I want a very cheap house. I’m really sorry」

「What are you saying」

Carlos said while making a wide smile.

「Being of help to Martein-sama is very honorable. And also, I am very touched with the story right now」

「Eh?! Why?」

「Lucio-sama said that he earned his own money, we started our trade almost 30 years. A 8-year old childーーPlease excuse me, I have never heard of a 8-year old boy who tells us to buy a house with his own money. As expected of Martein-sama, I could only say」

……That’s true, it’s normally impossible for an 8-year old child to say “buy a house with my earned money”.

Carlos was praising me with exaggeration, but when I knew that there was a proper reason for that, I felt a little good.

「Well, what kind of lot are you searching for」

「My capital is 50 million Cet」

I told that first.

It’s a line I couldn’t give up.

I bought Nadia for 100 million, that’s why without the backup of Martein House, 50 million was the limit that I could give.

「I see」

「Also a room that you can put a very huge bed. Other than that, I can put up with it」

「A very huge bed?」

「Un, about this much」

I stood up, walked around inside the room, and told him the size roughly.

It’s the size of the bed that is in my room right now.

For Sylvia who wets her bed, I want to keep the bed as big as usual.

「I see」

Carlos touches his chin, and thought about it.

「Well then, how about something like this」

I was taken by Carlos, and went to see the lot in reality.

「Wah〜, So wide」

The place where Carlos took me, was to an empty house in the outskirts of the town of Barza.

It’s a long house that has only one floor, probably has years on it, and honestly it looks shabby.

There is toilet and kitchen generally fixed on it, but it was really shabby.

But as I’ve requested, there was a room that I could put that huge bed in.

Sylvia and Nadia who came together went inside the house, and looked around everywhere.

While standing in front of the entrance, Carlos asked me.

「How is it. Honestly, it’s in the a bit of the extremes, but it matches the conditions so」

「Un, it might be good. How much is this?」

「40 million Cet」
