I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle - Chapter 751

"This is... even harder than I thought. Mercenaries."

"Well, I guess so. After all, there are groups of men who can only fight. It's basically nothing but a golden worm."

A group of Balkan mercenaries walked with pride from the variant.

We're heading south of the variant to Orient Country.

But there's a long way to go.

I go on foot, but it will take more than a month.

It has already been a few days since we left.

The mercenary regiment itself is not particularly problematic.

The mercenaries were bloody young men, but Elvis did not disturb discipline by taking care of them.

But it would be a lie to say that there is no problem at all.

In this short period of time, the problems that the mercenary regiment will continue to face have emerged.

It was a matter of money.

Over 100 Vulcan mercenaries include 10 Hornless Valkyries purchased from Mr. Ars.

Me, Elvis, Ian, and Sula are moving on their backs.

The rest of Valkyrie was pulling the truck and carrying luggage.

Such groups continue to travel to the foothills of the great snowy mountains, also known as spiritual peaks.

It is still a movement in the less popular nature.

You will start your journey before it gets brighter and prepare for camping in the evening and before dark.

Of course, you will eat there.

The portion of the food that we are carrying is running out.

For the first time, I realized that if the men who often eat gather, the food will soon be reduced.

On the way, they collect food that can be eaten from the woods and hunt the proper prey, so it's somewhat covered, but it's also limited.

So after a while, you'll have to go to the right city to get some food.

However, you will naturally buy food there.

In other words, it costs money.

I'm not making any money at the moment.

Rather, it is not recognized as a mercenary group.

As we keep moving, the funds we have prepared in the meantime will be diminished.

... are mercenaries really profitable?

Go to battle and earn rewards for your actions.

But you're not always fighting.

In addition, as well as going to the battlefield, there is also wear and tear, such as weapons, and we will need to replenish them.

When you think about it, you must get enough rewards for each time you go to battle.

Otherwise, they will not be able to stand as an organization at all.

A few days after the departure, management concerns, rather than fighting, dominated my mind.

"Well, as long as it's about Orient Country, it'll be all right for now."

"Really? How can you say that, Elvis?

"Because we have negotiated in advance, Mr. Alphonse. Remember last year, Ars stayed in Brillian Magic Country? At that time, there was already a rescue request from Orient. At that time, I was well aware of how well I would be prepared to accept mercenaries if they were sent."

"There was already such a negotiation."

"That's what I hear. At that point in time, there would have been various alternatives, whether to send troops or mercenaries, each with its own conditions. I didn't think Master Alphonse was going to head the mercenary regiment."

"Hmm. So if you go to Orient Country, you're prepared to accept the Balkan mercenaries?

"Yes, we've made arrangements about where this person lives, and how they can procure weapons, medicines, and other things, as well as the cost of their stay. I should have given that information to Eye, so you should check it out."

"Okay. But is it something that the Orient Nation won't give up on later?

"That may be the case, but you won't do it right away. If so, we do not know what action the mercenary group will take. It's not uncommon for mercenaries to turn into bandits as a result of reluctance to pay."

Looks like Brother Ars has been getting ready for it for a long time.

As a result, I only set up a mercenary group to go to Orient Country, otherwise I would have been operating in a different way.

Ask Eye to tell you about the arrangement your brother made with the Orient Country, and confirm it yourself.

Looks like the rewards are pretty good.

I don't think it's a problem to keep the mercenary regiment going.

But that's not enough.

Sometimes, in case.

After all, a mercenary is as user-friendly as a token.

I don't know what kind of treatment it will be.

We need to think hard about running a mercenary regiment.

When I was thinking about it, Sula called out.

Soon we'll be seeing some big towns together.

Next time you'll stay there, not camp.

I'm sending out a few mercenaries with Sula to secure our accommodation.

The Barca Mercenaries started walking while thinking about many things before they fought.
