The Cheat Plant Mage Hides to Live a Slow Life!! ～ I’ve Been Banished from the Court and Want to Raise a World Tree but my Territory is too Strong～

Plant Mage 18

 I’m Thinking of Buying Land (4)

I counted my assets in front of the receptionist.

In total, there were about 96 million yen in my leather bags.

I was 4 million short to purchase the land.

「In addition to mithril coins, you even have a large number of big gold coins….」

「Yeah but it is still not enough.」

I can’t help but shrug my shoulders.

I thought I would be able to purchase my ideal land smoothly but….it seems like I was a little naïve.

「How about joining a guild? It looks like you’re a mage.
If you enter the mage guild or magic tool guild, not only this is more than enough but you can also get a loan.」

「No, I would refrain.」

I immediately denied it.

I don’t want to join an organization where I need to socialize.

「So, are you going to give up.」

「No.」

I can’t do that either.

「I’m going to make some money.
I’ll be back by evening….no, by afternoon so would you please prepare the land for purchase? This is so nice so I think someone might buy it immediately.」

「Eh?」

I took my wallet back and left.

There must be something I can do.

The receptionist stared at Riito’s back in amazement.

「It’s nice?….that land in the middle of nowhere?」

He muttered “What a strange kid” and took out documents here and there.

Usually, the phrase “I’ll earn 4 million yen by the afternoon” can only be thought of as a lie but he thought he should prepare the registration just in case.

—Scene Change—

「So, four million yen.」

I’m thinking about what to do while walking around the city.

That’s an amount that you can only earn with time.

When I was still an adventurer in the empire, I earned money by completing quests ordered by the country.
Dangerous and difficult monster subjugation would earn me around 500 to 1000 gold coins.

However, there are only a few requests like that per year and there are no new monsters appearing on the upper continent.
The Hundred Year War Against Monsters ended in victory for humanity.

「Then, I can only think of business but….」

I need something that can be sold for as expensive as possible.

The only thing that I can do is to make plants grow faster.

If I produce too many crops, their value will plummet.
Even if there are a lot of crops, there is a limit to the amount that people can eat.
