I love time travel the most!

Kazuma Sato is aware of the sponsors.

When he was a high school student, he participated in large-scale events organized by the school, such as sports meets and school festivals. Poor high school students also often engaged in some rudimentary collaborations with nearby shops.

The shops will provide ingredients and tools for free or at a low price, and the high school students' job is to either build the shop's reputation or give the shop a certain percentage of the profits.

This is a common occurrence in island nations.

However, Kazuma Sato was a cunning person and never experienced the joy of school life.

This is really a sad story.

Kobayashi added, "I've reached a cooperation agreement with a magic item shop in town. Although I haven't received substantial financial support, I can obtain magic items worth 20 Eris for free from their shop every month."

Our job is to help her gain fame, and when she defeats enemies using magical tools, she must state that the tool was purchased from Wiz's Magical Tool Shop.

In this way, when they do missions, they will not only have to promote the team, but also Wiz's magic item shop.

Kazuma Sato understood after a little thought.

"Isn't this just advertising?!"

"Bingo! You were right!"

Kobayashi's explanation wasn't complicated, and combined with his conversation with Sato Kazuma, the others also learned about the details of the collaboration.

"A magical tool with a monthly allowance of 20...?"

"Very good! That's quite a sum!"

"I can drink so many glasses of sparkling wine!"

A giant frog costs only 5000 Eris, and after deducting labor costs and transportation fees, less than half is left. 20 Eris is indeed a considerable sum.

Although it can't be converted into money, it indirectly saves the team's expenses.

But Kazuma Sato was not satisfied.

He lowered his voice and asked, "Senior Lin, don't you think this limit is a bit low?"

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Kobayashi raised an eyebrow, signaling him to continue.

Kazuma Sato continued, "We have Aqua and Kobayashi-senpai, don't you think a mere 20 Eris for advertising is too little?"

He's truly a born businessman; he has an incredibly keen sense for money.

20 Eris is a considerable sum for novice adventurers; however, with advanced professions and the help of goddesses and cheat codes, Kobayashi and his companions are bound to grow very quickly.

The impact of their fame is unimaginable; at that point, the gains are no longer proportional to the efforts.

Kobayashi gave him an approving look.

“You’re right. But don’t worry, I’ve thought of that too. Also, there’s a clause in the contract with the store manager that says the investment will be adjusted based on the store’s reputation.”

However, there will be very few.

Wiz's willingness to provide funding stemmed not only from his appreciation of Kobayashi's potential but also, and perhaps more importantly, from his trust in him.

In order not to betray this trust, Xiaolin naturally wouldn't push her luck and ask for more.

“In fact, if we agree to help her increase her turnover and turn around her long-standing deficit, we will receive even more sponsorship…at least double.”

"Is what Senior Kobayashi said true?"

Kazuma Sato suddenly became very agitated.

In fact, he had many novel ideas he wanted to come up with, but he lacked a suitable opportunity to showcase them.

If he can help the store turn around its losses, he can also receive a considerable reward, which can be considered a win-win situation.

I advise you not to overthink it.

Kobayashi poured cold water on his enthusiasm: "That store manager is not someone an ordinary person can handle."

"……Why?"

Kazuma Sato was very puzzled.

Kobayashi crossed his hands under his chin and said with a serious expression, "Because that shopkeeper has the talent to [even if she earns 20 billion Eris, she will spend all the money on high-quality magic crystals that can't be sold in the newbie village if she's not careful].

"Can this be considered talent?!" Kazuma Sato exclaimed loudly.

Kobayashi shrugged: "In a sense, it can be considered a talent."

Hearing him say that, Kazuma Sato also gave up the idea of ​​taking this opportunity to show off his skills.

After all, he didn't want the money he earned to be used by shop owners to buy random things, and then experience the devastating feeling of going back to square one overnight.

"Okay, let's go look at the house now," Kobayashi suggested.

"House?" X4

Everyone was puzzled.

“That’s right. The contract we signed included a house that would be rented to us for free. Otherwise, how could I have been dismissed with a mere 20 Eris?”

Kobayashi gave a slightly smug thumbs-up, "But the house isn't very good, so it's best not to have too high hopes."

"how come!"

"Having a house is already pretty good!"

"That's right! It's better than living in a stable!"

Everyone was excited.

I never expected that Kobayashi-senpai would arrange a house so quickly after we just talked about sharing a place. His efficiency is just too amazing!

however--

"It's better than living in a stable... But even so, a dilapidated warehouse isn't much better than a stable!"

Kazuma Sato couldn't help but roar, "That was just a polite remark!!!"

At this moment, the group is in the northern suburbs.

On the way there, everyone argued endlessly, discussing the layout, how many rooms there would be, even how many floors there would be, and which room each person wanted to stay in, etc.

They were all caught up in the beautiful fantasy of luxury homes.

But the dilapidated warehouse roof had been torn off, and a large hole had been exposed in the wall, allowing even a slight breeze to swirl inside and then pass through the hole on the other side.

To put it nicely, it's a warehouse; to put it bluntly, it's a ruin!

That makes sense. How could the lich shopkeeper, who was so poor that he could only survive on vegetable leaves, possibly let them live in a mansion?

"Don't be so angry."

Kobayashi smiled and reassured the group, who were looking disgusted, while encouraging them, "As the saying goes, 'self-reliance leads to abundance,' let's build our own mansions!"

No problem. There's no shortage of building materials on the mountain behind us. You can find whatever you want there.

Let me show you natives what a true infrastructure powerhouse looks like!

Under Kobayashi's command, everyone then rolled up their sleeves and got to work.

Aqua and Kazuma Sato experienced the work of cement workers, a job they had never experienced in the city wall construction team, and Darkness and Megumin also experienced a job they had never imagined.

Moreover, they spend the mornings adventuring and completing raiding missions, and the afternoons and evenings working like infrastructure construction maniacs.

This went on for seven days, finally stopping amidst everyone's complaints and lamentations.

The mansion was never built.

But after filling in all the holes in the torn roof and walls, it was barely habitable.

"Yeah, very good."

Kazuma Sato stands with his hands on his hips, admiring the warehouse he built.

Kobayashi patted him happily, "Now you don't have to hide when you reward yourself in the middle of the night. You can come and go as you please in your own room."

"What are you saying? I don't understand."

Kazuma Sato awkwardly turned his head away, pretending to be an innocent young man, but his back had already unconsciously slumped.

Kobayashi's lips curled into a mischievous smile: "You know what, Sato-kun? Except for how Aqua got close to me, I basically know everything that happened last night."

"?!"

"And Aqua probably knows that too. After all, even in the darkest of nights, it's as bright as day to her."

"?!!!"

"It's okay, it's okay. I understand the restlessness of adolescence."

"Please, stop talking."

Kazuma Sato covered his face in embarrassment and shame, not daring to let Kobayashi see his awkwardness.

Huihui and Darkness asked in confusion:

"What's up with him?"

"He's fine, he's just too happy to have his own room."

Xiao Lin deliberately teased him.

He then shouted to the rest of the team, "Great! The house is finished! Let's have a good celebration tonight!"

"Yay!!!" X3

"Yay, hehehe..."

The boy didn't seem very interested.

Looks like someone's going to be so worried they won't be able to sleep tonight.

Chapter 11 The First Time, A Brief Transmigration

The rebuilt house cannot be occupied immediately; it needs some time to air out.

In addition, they have worked very hard during this period, and everyone hopes to rest for a few days.

And during this period.
