Chapter 1 – Where am I? (part4)
The parrot anthropoate returned with two soldiers in tow
I guess they're going to inspect the carriage He said about entry tax before, so it see to be taxed as well In such a case, a large aold and silver…
“Norbert-san, ?” (Yashi+ro)
“He?” (Yashi+ro)
“Salt, armor, fur, fruit, and… the most expensive merchandise is pepper” (Norbert)
“Pepper, is it?” (Yashi+ro)
“Yeah, this is the finest product of Baocliea Oh, do you knohat Baocliea is?” (Norbert)
“Yes, that's the spices producing territory” (Yashi+ro)
“Oh, so you're familiar with that place… then, perhaps he's a southern noble in murmur so it wouldn't be heard by Yashi+ro
No, I'm not I mean, anyone could draw such a siuy
Yashi+ro saw the soldiers leaving after inspecting the carriage, and then he spoke to Norbert again
”Pepper is really expensive, isn't?” (Yashi+ro)
”Yeah, that's exactly right!” (Norbert)
Norbert's nostril expanded as he laughing an unpleasant laugh Then he took out a pal out of the wooden box hidden in the back, and started bragging again
H contains the pepper Frorah-quality and well-priced high-class item, but this year's harvest is exceptionally the best Norold, but… this pepper is different This is worth at least twice the aht!” (Norbert)
Oh, this indeed is a high-class ite its worth inside his head
If I reold price in japan is rararams of pepper so, 200 × 5,000 = 1,000,000 yen Moreover, he said the price should be at least twice of that of gold There's , is this for real…!?
“Then, the contents of that bag… are worth 200,000 Rb?” (Yashi+ro)
“No, it's still cheap even if I sell if for 500,000 Rb!” (Norbert)
Five million, huh…… Yup, I want it…!
“Oh, excuse me I need to use the toilet” (Yashi+ro)
“Toilet? But there's no toilet around here…” (Norbert)
“Then, I will finish my business in the bushes around here” (Yashi+ro)
“O-Okay, please be careful… Should I accompany you?” (Norbert)
“No, it's fine I'ht, this is a very important object, so could you please hold it for me? I don't want to accidentally drop it, after all” (Yashi+ro)
Yashi+ro took out a cheap wallet from his boso He's afraid that I will just disappear before returning the favor I owe him That's why I leave an important object here, to make hi hi later
“Oh, I understand But please hurry up, because the iration procedure will be finished soon” (Norbert)
“Yes I will come back soon~!” (Yashi+ro)
Speak in a clear and friendly manner, that's the iron rule of fraud
Yashi+ro get off the carriage, running left and right between the other carriages as if sewing theht the figure of Norbert's attendant, the parrot anthropo the taxes to the soldier, and approached that place
“Oh, what's the matter?” (Parrot)
He noticed Yashi+ro's presence and asked hi face and then peeped into the paper he was filling in
“Nothing, I'ration procedure of this city” (Yashi+ro)
Yashi+ro exa alone
It's really been converted into kanji The taxes are written for each product and is finely calculated
“Hey, you're in the way!”
Suddenly, a soldier shoved Yashi+ro as peeping into docu for it, Yashi+ro fell on his butt with a conspicuoushis neck
“Ouch, that's terrible… as that for!?” (Yashi+ro)
Yashi+ro secretly took out the 500 yen coin hidden in his collar and then dropped it The coin bounced on the stone pave a clear metallic sound
“Oh no, this is bad…!!!” (Yashi+ro)
Yashi+ro picked it while pretending to be panic, and he put the fallen coin in his pocket in hurry
“Oi, what is that?”
“H you're hiding in your pocket Show me!”
“Oh, no Norbert-san will be worried if I don't coo first…!” (Yashi+ro)
Yashi+ro ran away fro words
“Oi, stop!”
Yashi+ro ignored the soldier's calling and kept running toward the carriage He glanced back and confirmed that the parrot anthropomorph has been apprehended by the soldier, instead of hi money is a serious crio, it was silver coin with poor quality… sterling silver, I guess?
However, the color was dull and the pattern was simple Their size is similar with my 500 yen coin but their appearance is not even close It seey in this world is also still low
I dropped si suspiciously Of course I was suspected of doing soal
Thus, a poor parrot anthropomorph has become a captive……… because of e and told Norbert that his attendant was apprehended by the soldiers
“There's a suspicion of (…” (Yashi+ro)
Hearing that, Norbert lost his temper and bit the bait
“To i rude torude to Wishart house, I can't overlook such a thing!!” (Norbert)
“You are right, Norbert-san You better go protest now!” (Yashi+ro)
“Yeah, but… I can't just leave the luggage here” (Norbert)
“Don't worry, because I will keep an eye on it” (Yashi+ro)
“Okay, then please do it I will talk to the soldier and come back soon” (Norbert)
Norbert juate The one that ree was Yashi+ro, various merchandise, and five millions yen worth of pepper
Fufufu~ I'd like to leave this place with the pepper immediately, but it seems only in this city I can communicate with the people froet lost in the plain again
I need to put a little uess…
Yashi+ro couldn't suppress his s the pepper
Yeah, I got five millions yen… La~la~la……
Few minutes later, accompanied by some soldiers, Norbert and the parrot anthropoe
“Good, you're still here I thought what should I do if thehad disappeared” (Norbert)
Frog? What is this guy talking about?
It seemed Norbert was really pissed He lashed out at Yashi+ro with open hostility
“What's your explanation?” (Norbert)
“Explanation?” (Yashi+ro)
“Don't play dumb! I've heard the story… You're the cause of this matter!!” (Yashi+ro)
“Cause… of what?” (Yashi+ro)
“bastard!!” (Norbert)
Norbert grabbed Yashi+ro's collar
…it hurts, but I need to maintain a smile in this kind of situation
“What do youabout since a while ago?” (Yashi+ro)
“You're hiding counterfeit coins! Thanks to you, I was also suspected!” (Norbert)
“I don't have such things…!” (Yashi+ro)
“Don't lie if you don't want to turn into a frog!” (Norbert)
Frog again… is that some kind of proverb? Well, I don't have time to think about that now
“Do you have a proof?” (Yashi+ro)
“That's…” (Norbert)
Norbert released his grips from the collar Yashi+ro s his disheveled clothes
“You said I have counterfeit coins, but where is the proof?” (Yashi+ro)
“Fufufu~ I have it here!” (Norbert)
Norbert showed a triu for those words, and took out ht?” (Norbert)
He dumped the content of my wallet on the spot with a presumptuous manner One thousand yen bill, ten thousands yen bill, and soround freely
