Chapter 64 – The irl

After taking a ain

The wind, which has been blowing down froed in a particularan adverse wind that blew from the downstream direction

If one was to spread the sail in this wind, their speed would be delayed instead

It was also Eiji and Fernando’s first trip by boat

They couldn’t allow thehtest adjustment in the vertical sail

Folding up the sail, they entrusted themselves to the river’s currents

The boat that travelled solely with the water currents became considerably slow

– Oh my, still, we did some nice transactions back there, didn’t we?

– That’s right It see method

– Yup Personally, I think we obtained the best result this time

– However, I wonder why did Pierro went through the trouble of testing us out

– Dunno But, he was applying that much pressure on us the entire time, so he probably had his reasons

Fernando shrugged his shoulders in a giving up manner

Eiji as well, had sis

What Pierro did should have been a dangerous ainst him, were he to do it unskillfully

Even if you cannot judge so the transactions So, perhaps it’s even possible to grasp so with a small trouble

The reason, which ure it hurriedly, is that I don’t seehtest idea as to what it can be Well, whatever – He thought

Recalling the cotton that was tightly packed inside the boat’s hold, Eiji smiled broadly

The cotton which he acquired wasn’t just enough to make 2 sheets of a mattress but also to weave a new fabric

Currently, the weaving was continuing to progress theprocess little by little toward the mass production

Because of that, Eiji could forecast that his village will monopolize the production of cloths, such as hemp cloths and cotton cloths, from now on

Making wool and fur, Siena is a great producing area

Once they becole aspect of life's necessities, they will probably be able to get the upper hand in negotiations

And then, there was a new otiations in form of iron products

Eiji thought that the future for Siena looked bright

shi+fting his sight toward the front, Eiji thought about the village of Au toward

Just what kind of place is it, I wonder?

In the end, Pierro didn’t tell Eiji what he wanted; nevertheless, he gave hie

The village of Au area on this island

In the first place, the village was surrounded by extending grasslands

The environment was easy to habitate, therefore, it was natural for horses to gather there

Catching and taers

Despite these, it also had its good sides

Half of the people in Au wild horses and doently do field work

Pierro revealed that in the past few years, horses of unusually high quality had been raised every year, beco purposes

However, apart from that information, Eiji couldn’t expect that he est surprise of this trip

Really, what is awaiting me there?

Eiji became anxious

– Fernando-san, what do you think it is that will surprise us the most?

– Hm? Ah, you mean what Pierro-san said? Are you bothered by/about that?

– Even if I hate it, I’d be bothered, were someone to tell me that way

– Well, I think you’ve got a point Maybe there are ridiculously large horses? I can’t say for sure though

– Yeah, I’m also curious about that

– At any rate, you will probably knoe arrive, so there’s no use in worrying about that here, right?

– I guess you’re right

As soon as Eiji agreed with Fernando’s answer, he switched his thought to so else

Regarding the boat trip as well, Eiji planned to return back as soon they visit one e after this one

The last thing to do will be to trade for salt at the village near the seaside and go back upstream

And once he arrives at horess with the preparations for his wife's childbirth

There were lots of things he had to do

– Oh, the forest has ended

– It’s as you say The whole surface is a lovely grassland…To think that such view existed

– It’s also the first time for me to see it

A gently-sloping hill and a turf that reached near their knees

Near the riverside, there were unknown, lovely flowers bloo

The whole field which also gave the feeling of spring was fresh and green

– Hm?

– What’s the matter?

Fernando strained his eyes toward the front as if noticing so

Could it be that so was there?

Eiji too, gazed in front of hi hooked
