Chapter 1043 - 1043. Clothing And Forging

"Please take the guild master position. This is a new start for every single blacksmith and crafter out there. The crafting guild is going to be a huge face when it comes to crafted materials and trade. Everywhere there are different buildings and groups when it comes to forging, woodworking, leatherwork, stone carving, everything. This will unite them all and you are a famous figure throughout the kingdoms. Even the dwarves hold you in high regard." 

There had been many people from many kingdoms that stopped by the wandering blacksmith's personal forge and shop. They had all spoken about the same things; being the guild master of the crafting guild. Rodney had learned that the wandering blacksmith had a personal shop and forge so he had gone to make his case as well. He was young and could really make a name for himself by putting in the work. He had already secured a position working in the crafting guild. 

"You have already helped so much. You helped organize the forges and even changed the blueprints of the building. Why would you want anyone else to walk in and take it over? You can maintain freedom of how and what you work on. Please just take the lead here." The reaction was just another shake of the wandering blacksmith's head. He had gotten used to reacting this way through the years. 

Many people that had seen his skills had tried to rope him in to large forge buildings or even merchant groups. But all of them would limit the way he forged and found materials. Even the ones that said he would have complete freedom would end with him being unintentionally limited. It could be clientele, materials, or even just meetings that would cut in to his forging time. 

The reason that he enjoyed his relationship with the party was that they allowed him this freedom. They recognized his skills and challenged him often. This had brought him to places he had never expected to be and even brought materials that he would otherwise struggle to come across by himself. Not only this but they had taken their hands off unless he wanted help and when he had gained help they followed his directions without argument. 

"What if you worked as a consultant? You can have an honorary title that allowed you full access to the crafting guild. You could teach, forge, and buy materials the same way that the guild master could. You wouldn't even need to come in." Rodney knew that this was his last chance to succeed where the others had failed. So many had given up before him. The only reason he was still trying was the fact that he also knew the party and how close the wandering blacksmith had gotten to them. 

"No restrictions?" The two words formed a question that Rodney had to jump on. 

"I promise that if they restrict you I will leave the crafting guild too. I can go there right now and force them to sign it in a magic contract even." The final pleading received the first and only nod that Rodney had managed to get. "I will be back with it soon!" The shout was ignored as the wandering blacksmith continued his work. 

The showroom of his personal shop was nearly three quarters of the way full. He had crafted pristine spears and elegant sets of armors. He even ignored some of the beautiful aspects of swords and shields to make them tougher and more durable. He wanted to have things for everybody to buy and not just rich nobles. His hammering was nowhere near over. He had a list of blueprints to complete. 

"Miss Lisa, is there anything else we can do to set up the showroom today?" Lisa had also started her set up. She had found three people to help her. On e was a demon woman that had received a merchant system and had looked for a way to build themselves a home. The other two were demi-humans that had feline traits. Since they had experience with unique clothing styles Lisa had hired them for their input end experience in assisting all kinds of shoppers. 

"No, that was great work today. I wasn't sure how well it would come together but I think we are almost ready. I want to go through some test purchases first since we need to make sure the runes that were carved work. If the adventurer guild bank cards do not work properly then we won't make any money. I also think we should have the crafting guild come over and sign a contract. Those are on tomorrow's list though." Lisa was very proud to see that she had chosen the proper employees and that she had a nearly full showroom. 

"Should we scout out some other seamstress or tailor system users?" The feline trait demi-human with a red haired tail and red haired ears looked like she was excited for this. 

"Yes, but we need to see three pieces of clothing that they made themselves so that I can decide if they can work here. My dragon scale boutique needs the freshest and highest quality clothing." The name had come from the first monster materials she had been given. Midnight's scales were part of her needles. There was also the entire line of harvest festival costumes inspired by the ones that Lisa had made Midnight before. 

"I'm excited to start selling everything. The gloves you made are going to be a hit for the season. I want to wear the pair you gave me everywhere." The demon woman was more than excited. She hadn't taken off the sleek green and white gloves she had been given by Lisa just that day as a sign she was an official employee. 

"I can't wait either. We should be able to open earlier than expected. Just get some good rest tonight so we can start early tomorrow." Lisa sent them away to rest while she looked over her newly filled boutique with joy.
