Chapter 6

"Shiro-niichan, this is the town hall."

The town hall was located in the center of town.

It was a two-story brick building, and it was said that anyone, not just the town's residents, could use it.

Under Aina's guidance, I entered the town hall and began the procedures.

The procedures were very simple.

First, I wrote down my name and the business period, and then I chose whether it would be a standing stall, a market stall, or a shop.

Thanks to the ring left by grandma, I could write in the foreign language without any problems.

I chose the market stall option and set the period to five days for now.

The cost was 50 copper coins, which is about 1,000 yen per day in Japanese currency.

Considering that the cost of setting up a stall at a flea market in Tokyo is 3,000 yen per day, this could be considered a bargain.

According to the town hall staff, the mayor was the sponsor.

To attract people and merchants to this town on the frontier and promote its development, the fees were set especially low.

Moreover, the town watch patrols the area, so it's said to be very safe.

The mayor is really doing a good job.

"Here, I'm done. Is this okay?"

I showed the application form to the lady in charge.

"Shiro Amata, right? A market stall for five days starting tomorrow. Is that correct?"

"Yes, that's correct. Well, if it goes well, I might extend it."

"I see. For the town's development, I hope your business goes well. I'll accept this, so good luck."

"Thank you very much. I appreciate it."

With that, the application process took about 15 minutes.

Alright, I'll head back to the market and think about what to sell.

I returned to the market once again.
