Isekai Nonbiri Nouka

Chapter 309

Plow .

I plow to my heart’s content .

Feels great .

However, it doesn’t go well .

The size of the field of Big Tree Village is the same as last year .

After this, I have to go to Village One, Village Two, Village Three, and Village Four .

It went well because each village has already decided where should be the field and what to cultivate .

The only field I won’t plow according to my schedule is the field at the Big Tree Dungeon .

There’s a request from Asa . He wants a field in a place a little far from the hot spring area .

He wants fruit trees too .

Affirmative .

I also went as far as the south dungeon and the north dungeon . I plowed new fields near the entrance .

It seems like the lamias were interested in fieldwork when we went there last winter .

I thought that it was good for the lamias but unfair for the titans so I asked them .

Their fields are only small so the lamias and titans can eat the crops as they want .

If you want to start full-scale farming, just let me know .

Finally, Village Five .

The most important thing here is to be careful .

Therefore, it was the last .

First, change clothes .

Yes, I wore good clothes .

Greetings .

Yes, hello .

You don’t have to kneel, waving your hand is enough… . who is it? Who the heck taught them “banzai sanshou”!

This is the demon king’s territory .

What if some misunderstand that the demon king has come?

My apologies for only greeting you now .

However, didn’t you already see me last winter?

Please take care of me this year too .

There’s no need for tribute .

Ah, I should take it .

Then, you have my thanks .

Ah, I can’t receive it directly?

Youko should be the one to receive it for me… . and before Youko receives anything, the mercury Hih received it for her .

What a hassle .

No, Loch seemed to be in more trouble since he’s the one writing the inventory of tributes .

Yeah, hang in there .

It took me half a day to receive all tribute .

After that, a banquet .

Even if I say that it’s a banquet, I can hardly eat because of greetings .

Is this some sort of harassment?

Think about me a little more… . .

This is because there are few opportunities to show my face?

Even if you say that…

Besides, Youko is the representative of Village Five .

「I’m only the acting village chief, remember?」

「Yes, that’s right . 」

I think it will be more beneficial for them to connect with Youko than me .

Maa, let’s just greet them all with a smile .

I’m tired .

However, this is only the first day .

Endure .

The next day, finally, time for work .

Yeah, it’s just good that the gatekeeper only looks at me as someone suspicious now .

I’m going to do something on the small mountain of Village Five .

Originally, I was planning on planting something when the mansion was completed but because of Pirika’s affair and winter, I put it temporarily aside .

The AFT can grow anything regardless of the season but I don’t want to overdo things .

I think there should be a food shortage in this country .

Perhaps the dungeon potatoes were effective . It might have spread to the who’ll demon king’s kingdom .

It seems like no one died of hunger last winter .

However, it seems like we have to worry about the drop in food prices next year .

That’s just great and I hope it lasts a long time but the world is having a hard time .

There’s not much green on the small mountain where Village Five is so I decided to grow fruit-bearing trees .

「The trees near the inn of Big Tree Village . Please plant some of them . 」

That is Youko’s request . What’re the trees near the inn?

It is not short… . . AH, cherry .

「Areh? Could it be that you prefer ornamental value rather than fruits?」

「Shouldn’t we make its beautiful flower bloom? We have enough leeway for that, don’t we?」

Of course .

Ah, is that the reason why Youko has been going to the inn lately?

Now is the time for it to bloom .

Then, let’s plan some cherry trees intensively .

Though it will take several years, on the days of its full bloom, cherry blossom viewing here will be fun .

「What is cherry blossom viewing?」

「Hnn?」

How should I explain?

That evening .

We decided to have a cherry blossom viewing in Big Tree Village .

I explain the cherry viewing tradition and etiquette to them .

Maa, it was supposed to be cherry blossom viewing but it has become a banquet held near the cherry trees .

Everyone is used to banquets .

That’s not a problem though .

The free nyunyu-daphnes gathered and made the night shine instead of lanterns .

They also light up the cherry trees .

The wooden chaise lounge is covered with a red-dyed cloth giving it a slightly luxurious feel .

The music is also soothing .

「I understand now . 」

Yoko is more than happy .

Maa, she’s having a hard time in Village Five .

This is good, right?

「Village chief, I brought it . 」

The dwarves brought eight large barrels of alcohol .

Thank you .

You may begin to drink .

The food will be here in a moment .

The oni maids are cooking in the inn’s kitchen .

Today’s main dish is lobster .

The lobsters we’re culturing seem to have increased more than expected .

I think it’s okay even though it hasn’t been a year .

But I have my doubt .

This is so easy . Are we culturing it correctly?

「Vilage chief, is culturing lobsters difficult in other places?」

Since the lizardman who’s cultivating it says so, it might be… . what do you mean?

Could it be feeding problem?

Maa, I have no complaint since the lobsters are delicious .

When people gather and the dish cooked by the oni maids was brought, the banquet begins .

Kuro and the others… . . ah, he’s waiting near where I’m seated .

Good good .

A little later, the children’s group, led by Loo, Tier, and Hakuren, arrived .

It may be boring for the children because it only has atmosphere .

Fried lobster, steamed lobster, roasted lobster .

The smell of alcohol… . is not good .

Ursa and Guraru were turned off .

Drink some juice instead .

Here, take this cup .

Look up .

Enjoy the cherry blossom .

… .

I’m sorry, spiderlings .

Were you hiding in the cherry trees and were preparing something?

It’s okay, please go on .

It might ruin the atmosphere?

Come on, don’t mind it .
