Chapter 390: Takumi’s shopping spree
It was owned by one of Gnomstoll’s leading companies, and it specialized in the sale of magic devices.
They sold an array of magic devices from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor.
「This is the place most abundant with magic devices in the capital.」
「There are Dwarves in the Sanctuary, but most of them took part in making alcohol. Let’s take this chance to buy all sorts of magic devices.」
「Indeed. There might be ones that might be perfect for the Sanctuary Citizens.」
The residences in the Sanctuary were fully equipped with water and sewer services. The residential areas of course had been installed with a Purifier MD, and it was standard for each house to be installed with a Toilet MD as well.
But when it comes to cooking, many still use a traditional stove. Lighting was also typically with oil lamps too.
「Sophia, Maria, let’s buy all sorts of souvenirs for the people in the Sanctuary.」
「Understood. Let’s buy plenty of Light MD and Stove MDs.」
「Right. It would be very convenient to have a magic stove for cooking.」
Maria, who usually cooks ins the Sanctuary mansion with Marnie, agreed.
「Y-yeah. I think it would be convenient.」Fiind updated novels on no/v/elbin(.)co/m
「Sophia-san, you aren’t usually in the kitchen, though, no?」
「Urk.」
「Now, now, if you have anything else you’re interested in getting, you may as well.」
There’s nothing Laeva and I can’t do if we try to get all the magic devices the Sanctuary needs. But I have way too much money accumulating. So I should buy the things I could.
The first floor displayed a mass of magic devices. Maria and Marnie headed to the second floor to look at kitchen-related magic devices. Akane and Lulu-chan went window shopping, wandering around to see if there’s anything interesting.
Now then, I should also go around
I’ve seen catalogues of light fixtures in Japan, but the Dwarves in this world wouldn’t lose. Ahh, by now, Japan would even have catalogues on the internet huh.
Lighting MDs of various designs were on display, ranging from the stand type and ceiling lights, to even the complete art pieces like sconces and chandeliers. We informed the clerk of the quantities we want of the items we liked, and the clerk noted down the type and quantity of each product.
We haven’t really had the chance to spend money like this. Volton was one thing, but there’s absolutely no opportunity to spend money while living in the Sanctuary.
Maria and Marnie were having some sort of discussion in front of a large magic stove.
「What’s up?」
「Ah! Takumi-sama. Please look at this oven. It looks very easy to use.」
「The design is simple, and it think it would be very easy to clean too.」
It looked like they were mulling over whether to buy it or not.
「Hmmmm, then shouldn’t you just buy it?」
「Is that okay?」
「It’s a little pricey, you know?」
「Even if you say it’s expensive, it’s not like our family can’t buy it, right? You can buy whatever what you like.」
「「Thank you very much!」」
Maria and Marnie thanked me happily. Was the stove at the mansion lacking? Oh well. I’m not much of a cook, so I’m sure there are methods of cooking that I don’t know about.
In the end, we spent the day shopping in the store until dusk. The mountain of products stored in a warehouse were all stored into my Item Box, but that in itself took a lot of time to do. Needless to say, the shopkeepers all looked pleased with the money that flew their way.
