Chapter 848: Teriyaki, Model, and Gold Coins

Just before noon.

Girar was strolling through the village with the orthros Oru.

Not an unusual sight.

Recently, Guronde has been training Hiichirou and Guraru so the lonely Girar and Oru hit off.

Well, it doesn’t mean they’ve stopped fighting but you could say they’re getting along better.

They are currently not fighting for the lead role but are walking side by side.

By the way, Guronde, Hiichirou, and Guraru are training together.

And it seems like Raimeiren managed to join them.

Dors reported back to me with a very good expression on his face.

That isn’t bad.

He should be happy too.

Ah, Kuro and Yuki complained to me.

I’m currently walking Kuro and Yuki.

I have to concentrate.

After the walk, it’s time for lunch.

This time, I’m going to cook.

I mix soy sauce with sugar and alcohol while heating it.

Yup, it’s teriyaki sauce.

I dip a thin hamburger steak into the jar of teriyaki sauce and take it out.

This isn’t shiny enough, isn’t it?

As long as there’s no problem with the taste, all is well.

Taste it.

……..

Okay.

I’m accompanied by an oni maid.

And, there’s also one angel who’s helping us.

Alright, let’s all taste it again.

Yeah, it’s good.

「This sweetness is good, isn’t it?」

「I think this taste is something the children would enjoy.」

「I think even adults will like it.」

It was well received by the oni maid and angel who tasted it.

I should have made it sooner.

With that in mind, I mass produced teriyaki hamburger for today’s lunch with the help of the oni maid and angel.

The teriyaki hamburger was popular with the children especially to my and Senna’s daughter, Stte.

She asked for three more refills.

Sette is currently looking forward to the birth of her little brother or sister.

What do you think will happen when you have a little brother or sister?

Have you thought of a name?

She talked about it to the other children wondering if they’ll all get along.

I can’t help but smile at Sette and hope that Senna will give birth safely again.

……..

Later, I’ll offer some teriyaki hamburgers to the fairy queen.

There are a number of empty rooms in my mansion and some of them are being used by the spiderlings.

When I entered a spiderlings’ room, I found a magnificent wooden model train.

It was about one-hundredth the scale of the real thing but the tracks of the railroad were laid out and an uncovered carriage was placed on top of it.

The spiderlings were playing on the carriage, pushing and pulling it and when they saw me, they asked me to play with them.

Sorry.

Sorry for interrupting you.

The spiderlings here love crafts.

They can use web to a point but they are not interested in just making some decorations.

They are more interested in crafts like the mountain elves were doing.

During the domino tipping we had a while ago, they watched with excitement and after it was over, they lined up everything again and knocked them over themselves.

And now, they are fascinated with model train building.

They were fascinated by the wheels running on the rails.

They were impressed with the way the wheels work, especially when going around curves.

The wheels they made were conical that taper outward.

This conical shape adjusts the contacts of the wheels when moving on curves.

If the spiderlings here could scream, they’ll probably all scream out loud in joy.

In reality, though, they were having a joyful tap dance.

The scale of the model is gradually increasing.

Using the spiderwalk, not catwalk, in the ceiling, they even deployed the railway model across multiple rooms.

Incidentally, the room where I am now is modeled after Big Tree Village.

Yeah, they were also building dioramas.

There are many places to see but the most impressive one should be the big ring that encircles the perimeter of Big Tree Village.

And the central line that runs to the east and west of my mansion.

This central line leads to the next room modeled after Village One.

Traveling further is another room which is modeled after Village Two.

Village Three is currently in production.

They are only making familiar places because the spiderlings here have never been to Village Five, Shashaato City, or Howling Village.

I want to take them there if possible.

And I also wanted to show them the railway in Village Five.

I came to this room to help them build a model railway.

The spiderlings are building the rails so I’m mainly building the carriages.

Alright, today, I’m going to build a locomotive.

Well, just the shape though.

A working one would need to burn coal.

……it’s made of wood so there’s no way we can burn coal there.

Should we make one out of steel then?

No, making something that moves would be very difficult even though it’s just a model.

W-well, if it’s just the engine part, I’ll do what I can.

Don’t get your hopes up though.

I enjoyed building models with the spiderlings leisurely.

I put some gold and silver coins on the table.

No, I’m not showing off my wealth.

I have been calling them gold and silver coins but there are different types of gold and silver coins.

They are all circular, the same size, thickness, and weight but they differ in design, pattern, and characters.

The difference is probably due to the country, organization, or group that issued them.

Apparently, the gold and silver content actually varies slightly depending on the type.

However, this doesn’t mean that the value of gold or silver coins increases or decreases depending on its type.

All gold coins have the same value as a gold coin and all silver coins have the same value as a silver coin.

Well, of course, the value of gold and silver coins fluctuates depending on the economic power of a country or region but the final value remains the same.

This is because any kind of gold or silver coins in this world can be used to negotiate with dragons.

In other words, the final value of the gold and silver coins in this world is guaranteed by the dragons.

In addition to that is the amount of gold and silver coins in circulation.

The countries, organizations, and groups that issued these coins have all died out so the actual amount in circulation is unknown.

However, it is said that dragons are storing large amount of gold and silver coins and releasing them periodically to regulate the amount of money in the market.

……

Are Dors and Raimeiren doing this?

Given what they’re usually doing, they don’t seem to do so.

Or am I not just seeing them do so?

Let’s ask Hakuren about it.

「According to the outside world, the dragons are doing it but we don’t. We, the dragons, don’t care about details that much.」

Right.

So, no one manages the amount of money in the market?

「The ones who manage it are the devils who serve mother and father. They’re good at it and they are doing a lot of things.」

Heh.

「However, those devils are monsters when it comes to economy. They’ll happily do it even though it is impossible to control.」

Happily?

「Yeah. The like dealings with out of control things.」

W-well, there are all kinds of people……

And there are all kinds of devils too.

Frau makes a follow up.

「In general, all gold coins are worth as gold coins and all silver coins are worth as silver coins…… However, gold and silver coins that are unfamiliar will be suspected of being counterfeit, hence, losing their value. Gold coins, in particular, is something the commoners are unfamiliar with so they are more likely to be suspected.」

I see.

「However, there are some enthusiasts who collect unfamiliar gold and silver coins so their value sometimes rises.」

In other words?

「It depends on who you are dealing with. In the demon kingdom, it is rare but when dealing with human kingdoms, the type of gold or silver coins may vary.」

Heh.

So, should we separate the different types of coins in Big Tree Village as well?

「……the slider type coin calculator made by the mountain elves, can it also separate different types of coins?」

It only identifies the type of coin depending on its size, weight, and whether it was gold or silver.

I guess it won’t be able to distinguish coin patterns.

No, that means if we can determine the patterns, we would be able to do it.

If we could do something to get it learn all types of coin patterns, perhaps we could……

I looked at the nearby mountain elf.

You should be listening, right?

The mountain elf thought for a moment, said that it would be fun to make but it would be around the size of a small house.

Is it that difficult that you can’t even make it portable?

「Ano……considering the amount of gold and silver coins we have in the village, it would be one heck of a job.」

……..

Okay, let’s not do that.

Just make a type sorter or something.

Take your time too.

Mountain Elf: What’s with using coal to make it move?

Village Chief: Have you been peeking…..?

Mountain Elf: I thought you were doing something fun.

Spiderlings: (Another playmate!)

Village Chief: A locomotive is……something like this?

Mountain Elf Maa: Eh? Locomotive? That compact? Eh?

Devil: By the way, please take some random gold coins and lock it in your nest.

Dragon(impure): I just need to lose them randomly, right?

Devil: Yes, please lose them. You must absolutely lose them and you must not take them back.

Dragon(impure): Yeah yeah, for the sake of the economy. Understood.
