To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor - Chapter 294
Episode 294 Aira’s Request (2)
Hafman Co., which laid the foundation in the Holy Land and became a grand corps, is now extending its influence to other countries.
Against the background of enormous funds that are incomparable to the initial funds, they are grabbing public sentiment and credit at once.
So it’s to the point where anyone would think of more than half a million at least once when making a big deal.
Not only the Seongguk, but also the ascending routes to other countries are strong, so even local lords can’t touch them.
It has become a super-giant upper rank that can even aim for deals with the kingdom beyond the grand corps.
Ray returned to Glienne again.
He muttered as he looked around.
“It should be around here.”
When I look at the place where people are gathered, I see a building.
A large three-story building has a large sign that reads ‘Harpman Corporation’.
The business, which was crumbling in the castle country, has opened branches in other countries.
It must be proof that Harpman is doing a good job.
Thinking of him running hard somewhere, Ray smiled happily.
“It looks a bit like him, but he has one trust. If you grow well like this, there will be something you can use forever.”
Halfman was unknowingly entangled in Ray’s plans for a happy future.
He stood in line in a large crowd.
Not long after, his turn came.
Compared to the long line, the processing speed is quite good.
The neatly dressed receptionist looked at him and said.
“What business did you come for?”
“I want to buy some stuff. I want to buy mainly minerals, but I don’t know if it will be in quantity.”
The clerk’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
No matter how branchy it is, this place is more than half that.
Worrying about the quantity in a large group that not only the castle country but also other countries can’t carelessly do.
I don’t know how much I want to buy, but when I said that to the subject wearing a worn robe, I was a little dumbfounded.
However, the words that came out of the receptionist’s mouth were polite.
“What minerals do you buy and how much?”
Ray counted for a moment, then said.
“Two hundred joules of refined iron and two hundred joules of steel. And it should be about a hundred lines of mithril.”
At those words, the clerk opened his mouth wide.
If it wasn’t just a railroad, but two hundred lines of refined iron, the price would be burdensome even for a tolerable lord.
But in addition to that, it is two hundred lines of steel.
This is more than enough to buy a mansion with a garden, and to buy another hundred rows of mithril?
Now the clerk suspected that the masked young man in front of him was playing a prank.
No matter how educated I was, I naturally rolled my eyes.
“…the down payment is five percent.”
can you afford to pay? It’s a question.
Instead of answering, Ray took out a tile from his chest and held it up.
The gold and luxuriously embroidered silver and mithril around the round plaque draw attention.
The clerk looked at it blankly and then screamed.
“Ah! The top state loses!”
“Upper share?”
Ray doesn’t know what this is.
It was only at Harfman’s request that he be called in case something inconvenient happened.
If you look at what is called an upper state hand, it is probably the same hand as Harpman’s.
I never thought I would have given away the card of the top state while giving it away.
The receptionist hurriedly ran somewhere.
In less than five minutes, the head of the Hafman Company ran out barefoot.
A middle-aged man with a bald head folds his back.
“This is Jace, the head of the branch of the Merchant! Come inside!”
When I said that while throwing a respectful gaze, Ray followed the guide hiding his burdensome heart.
Even though it was a branch of a high society, the branch manager’s office was quite luxurious.
Branch manager Jace cleared his throat and suggested a chair.
After Ray sat down, we got to the point.
“I heard you need minerals. Sorry to say, but it will take a little while to sell 100 lines of mithril.”
“If you get it as quickly as possible, how much?”
“I think it will take at least a week.”
A week is incredibly fast.
It would take a week to get 100 lines of refined iron instead of ordinary mithril.
Ray nodded his head in satisfaction.
“it’s okay.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”
On the contrary, he bowed his head as if he had apologized.
“What do you think the market price is?”
“Originally, mithril is valued at fifty platinum coins and refined iron at twenty.”
It is cheaper than expected.
As the story progressed, Ray pulled out a large leather pouch from his backpack.
There are a lot of platinum coins inside.
Even if you simply calculate it, the down payment is an amount that can easily exceed.
As I held it out, Branch Manager Jace shook his head.
“The top lord told me not to accept money from the person who has the plaque, regardless of the reason. You even warned me that those who violate it will be severely punished, but how can I accept it?”
Harpman seems to have tried his hand in advance.
Embarrassed, Ray scratched the back of his head.
“I’m a little sorry to receive it for nothing…”
“Hahaha. Why is the person with the top lord’s card worried about such a thing?”
When I asked what kind of person he was because he was the branch manager, he was a very angry person.
I don’t lose my humility just because I’ve risen to a high position, so I have high expectations in the future.
I could understand why Harfman had made Jace the branch manager.
Ray, who was drinking tea, stood up from his seat and said.
“Take that money, though. I might have something urgent to write about soon.”
The Hafman Chamber of Commerce is a grand delegation that encompasses the country.
Sixty platinum coins are by no means small amounts of money, but they are not enough money to be used closely at a business meeting.
Branch manager Jace said as if he was perplexed.
“It is difficult to handle the order of the upper class.”
Ray smiled at him.
“If Harfman argues later, tell me I did it because I wanted to. The basics of a merchant are trades. A merchant who loses his original intention will perish. Please tell Hafman not to lose his original intention in the future.”
“If you tell me directly, you will like it.”
“I am a bit busy. Bring the items to Grandel’s Forest in a week.”
He went out the door with his horse.
Branch manager Jace, who was left alone in the office, admired him.
Even though there is a hand of the leader, he refuses to use the leader’s money and pays his own money.
The fact that the basics of a merchant is transaction is to remind them once again that they are merchants who have to pay a price even for trivial things.
Because that’s the merchant’s original intention he says.
Branch Manager Jace promised.
“When I asked what kind of person the normally stingy Sang Sang-ju praised so much, you are indeed a person. I will treat you well next time.”
No one knows what will come next.

A week later, more than half a thousand wagons with flags gathered in one after another in the forest of Grandel.
It is an amount of up to 500 lines of minerals alone.
It was not an amount that could be solved with just a few wagons.
Ray, who was sitting on a rock and waiting, helped.
I move the minerals by myself that the other three can barely carry.
Eventually, when all the wagons were empty, the workers finished their work and went back to the village.
Five hundred rows of minerals was a great amount.
There is more than enough to fill up such a huge vacant lot.
Aira walked out from behind.
“This… is amazing…”
Honestly, she didn’t think it would be this much either.
Even if there were only 50 rows of each mineral, the elven village could eat rice cakes.
If it is 500 lines, it will last for the next 100 years.
“I’ll put up with this for the time being.”
“Elf artisans are more picky than humans, but they would be satisfied with this amount.”
If you’re not satisfied, you’re in trouble.
He didn’t know what Ray would do if he complained even a little about not being full.
Aira drew her hand in the air.
When several magic circles overlapped, all the minerals that were over 500 lines disappeared.
“It’s a magic that’s always convenient to see.”
“If you want to learn, just tell me. I’ll have to pay some, but I’ll teach you responsibly.”
I know the pay she’s talking about isn’t money.
“…if the opportunity arises.”
“Whoop whoop. don’t let me wait.”
Ray straightened his backpack.
“Then I will ask you.”
“…Please come back safely.”
Several magic circles evoke mana and embrace him.
Just as he teleported the mineral, his body disappeared from the forest of Grandel.

Princess Celestia muttered with a worried face.
“…is it still?”
It’s already been three weeks.
There is only one week left until the month.
Even so, there was no sign of the saint coming, so they only cared for it.
The lady-in-waiting who had been encouraging Celestia by her side only looked at her with a puzzled expression.
“That’s strange… Maybe something happened?”
“I heard that once a man falls in love, he leaves everything behind…”
“He will come to you after work is over. From what I can see, the saint fell in love with the princess. Is it because there is love in your eyes? So let’s wait a little longer. Who knows that you will come to the royal castle after a month?”
The lady-in-waiting, who found a way to live, started teasing her again.
Princess Celestia had been tricked three or four times so far.
However, even after being tricked, he didn’t think he was deceived, so he only thought that the lady-in-waiting was right.
In addition, Celestia, who loves reading, learned to love through reading.
In the book, of course, only beautiful love stories are written.
Among them, there was a story of a princess who fell in love with a saint, but the saint in the storybook is never talkative or picks on bandits.
Because their understanding was different, the two had no choice but to stray from the start.
Celestia was once again enticed by the maid’s words. “A child’s affection… We’re not even like that
yet …”
You two are almost married.”
The lady-in-waiting spat out a sound that would cause trouble.
When the subject of marriage came up, Celestia’s face turned red.
There is no objection to the marriage because he expected that one day he would have an arranged marriage.
In my imagination, I was thinking of a prince of a neighboring country, but being a saint is also attractive in its own way.
Furthermore, what about the off-white color of the saint?
Even an elf has no problem with her enchanting eyes and white hair that creates a mysterious atmosphere.
A companion who never falls for himself.
As the lady-in-waiting next to her catches the wind, Celestia, who was anxious, managed to control herself.
“…Then let’s wait a little longer.”
The princess was fooled again.
