Chapter 250
Year 7446, Month 7, Day 24
After we discovered {Flame.Tongue} we also found {Big.Freezer} and large-size chandelier(it wasn't very luxurious but it was considerably efficient as a lightning tool) magic tools. Putting aside the chandelier I hesitated a bit on what to do with the freezer.
"But you know~ If we encounter another group of {Roze} again couldn't we freeze the meat and store it."
The glutton of the {Slaughterers} said that but
"Did you forget how much the previous freezer sold for?"
And that was said by her adoptive father.
That's right. It wasn't even a large size one, just a normal 100 liter or so freezer sold for 200,000,000 Z. Even after paying the taxes and everyone's bonuses it still left 130,000,000 Z remaining in my hands. It's not like we have anything that we need to preserve for long periods in the months and we already have a large ice storage room in the sausage factory so we don't particularly need it right. It's only obvious we're selling it. You can even buy ice in the tons for about 5,000 Z from any ice dealer after all.
Tomorrow when brother and the others come it would probably be best to take advantage of that opportunity and carry it to the capital and take it into the mainstream company Duke Sandak manages to get rid of it.
That evening we returned from the dungeon and after selling our magic stones I gave Gwine a two week holiday.
The other members pulled lots on who would accompany the {Butchers} and {Exterminators}. Miduchi and Ralpha pulled the winning lots. The other members besides them get a holiday along with Gwine. The combat slaves are coming along with me to the capital around tomorrow when brother's caravan should arrive.
Ralpha was complaining about not getting a holiday but it was the fair result of pulling lots and in the first place it's not like the combat slaves or I get a holiday either. After Toris and Bel pointed that out and Zenom smacked her in the head she finally was quiet about it.

Year 7446, Month 7, Day 25
Just as planned brother arrived with three carriages along with Rasseg and the people of the Donneoru family. The current members of the Donneoru family are primarily Rasseg as the head, along with his wife Mili, and their 12 year old son Harris. Along with them the former head of the family, old man Rafitto, the four of them were moving here.
Below Harris he had two siblings but his little brother died as a baby several days after birth and his little sister Sara is still 7 years old and young so they left her in care of Rasseg's little brother Bosshu and Myun. That would mean she's living together with her older cousin, their son Ailado. From my impression Sara was a considerably quiet and well-mannered child so while it's just for two years it hurts my heart a bit splitting her apart from her parents.
They arrived in Baldukk just around noon so we had some lunch together and then went to the capital just like that. If they had any space in the carriages I had intended to load various things on it but there was no space so I ended up having to borrow another carriage. It seems Zenom and Gwine intend to ride the carriage together with us to do some shopping in the capital.
After arriving at the capital the Ryogu family were already well prepared and had made reservations at an inn for brother, the Donneoru family, and the others from Bakuddo. We took a short break and after confirming that the Donneoru family had started lowering their furniture I brought along my combat slaves as we went to sell the magic tool we found in the dungeon this time and then on our way back we stopped by the castle and I told a person of the first knight group that we would be making deliveries tomorrow and that I would report the fact that we cleared the 8th floor on that occasion.
I'm sure the King doesn't have that much free time so I doubt he would come out every time for something like this but if he has time to take a walk for a change of pace and I run into him it wouldn't be bad to directly tell him about it. Well, I think he probably already knows though. Personally I just want to avoid the possibility of being questioned later on "Why didn't you say anything".
After that I also came along to show my face and see how things were going with the sausage factory. Since I let Basutoral and Giberuti return from the dungeon early they should be about finished with trial operations. The sensitivity the slaves have towards the work and what kind of reputation it has from just the trial run and what amount of stock we need up until next month, it's important for Basutoral and Cathy to meet and discuss the details like that. It's also necessary to talk to Rasseg and the others of the Donneoru family about what kind of troubles can be predicted in relation to the factory and the capital that might be necessary for that.
We need to cover everything from getting their faces known, greetings, and handing over work duties in two weeks.
I'm sure it'll be a busy two weeks.
