Now it is Gilboa's turn to show his cards .
"A reward . In other words, how much do you value the future of Kenkiba corps?"
Gilboa's handsome face bore a smile .
"Suibelie, how much do you think it is worth?"
Suibelie slips into though .
"3 large silver coins sound reasonable . "
"And why is that?"
"He managed to solve a problem I could not solve for the past six months . "
Thee large silvers! That's 10 times the amount of 1 silver, 1 silver is 10 times the amount of a large copper and a large copper is 10 times the amount of a copper .
(TN: For convenience .
1 large silver = 10 silvers
1 silver = 10 large coppers
1 large copper = 10 coppers
So, he made 3000 coppers in one deal where he normally gets 300 coppers in a month)
What is 3 large silvers?
I normally make 3 silvers a month meaning that is ten times my monthly income .
That should be about what a vice-captain of a top clan would earn, I calculate .
"Is it lacking?"
Gilboa looks at me .
"It is unsatisfactory . "
I answer without hesitation .
"Because you have not heard my solution yet, do you think it is alright to put a price on it?"
"There is a chance I may not pay after hearing the solution?"
"The Captain would never do something so shameful . "
Adventurers are creatures that care very much for their names and reputation . As a Captain of a top clan, you must have a strong arm, hold your liquor, have good luck when gambling and have a reputation for being generous . If the Captain is not generous then are the group members going to follow them? Besides, I am now in a situation where I am a manger for novice adventurers . It is a situation where my reputation increases for better or worse .
He understood that I was only kidding, when his face returned to be serious and he told me .
"The reward is promised on my name Gilboa of the Kenkiba corps, that should be enough reassurance . So, will you talk about the future that you see?"
Oh yeah I forgot to mention this on the previous post but I have setup patreon If anyone is interested in either getting stuff a day early or getting it as I translate it .
