The next day, the warehouse owner went to the guild again to make a request for tidying up a warehouse. But now, it was a nomination request for us.
Same people as the ones who took the request yesterday immediately headed to the site. Based on the experience yesterday, we prepared more cleaning supplies from the guild’s store.
「「「 Good morning! 」」」
“Welcome. I’ve been waiting for you guys.”
Today’s client is a cheerful aunt. She’s a little overweight, but that’s part of her charm.
“Actually, this time, there are some ingredients that can still be used. Can you sort them out?”
“Ao-chan said to leave it to her!”
“Oh, then I’ll leave to little Ao-chan.”
Today’s client mainly deals with fruits, so Ao is very active. The usable items will be shipped immediately, so everyone pack up the sorted items (those that were left after Ao has finished eating the rotting ones.)
“Auntie, what do we do with the sorted items?”
“You can put it in the cart.”
“Got it~!”
“Oh my, Shiro-chan is very powerful huh.”
The carts carrying the sorted fruit are pulled one after another by the people who work at the warehouse. While transporting Ao’s sorted goods, the inside of the warehouse is also being cleaned. After about four hours, the sorting was over, so we decided to take a break.
By the way, Ao digests the fruit that he has plucked.
“We moved right ahead thanks to you. Here, eat this too.”
“Ya~y!”
Shiro is overjoyed when the aunt gifted her some fruit.
After everyone ate their lunch and took a short break, we resumed organizing the warehouse. We already finished sorting the fruits in the morning, so now we just need to finish cleaning up. Usable wooden boxes are cleaned, and decayed ones are dismantled and burned. After that, everyone sweeps the floor and make it sparkly clean.
“Oh my, you really cleaned it up well. Actually, I was a little worried because the output of the group I hired before was not satisfactory at all.”
“Well, in the end, we relied too much on my familiar though.”
“It can tell the difference between good and bad fruit, so that’s not a problem. It’s also impressive that you guys completed your work properly even without magic. I’ll call for you guys again if I need help in the future.”
“Yes. Thank you very much.”
As expected, the warehouse owner kept a close eye on Ao and on how we cleaned up without magic. I guess those people who watched us work are also observing us.
At this point, another person approached us. It was a man with a slicked-back hairstyle.
“Well, I’ve been watching your work. I’d like to ask you to sort out my warehouse as well.”
“That’s fine, but we’re actually going to take a guild course tomorrow. And, it’s only our second day of receiving requests.”
There is a course on herb collection at the guild tomorrow. In winter, the supply of medicinal herbs decreases, so not only the guild but also the whole country needs as many medicinal herbs as possible.
“That’s not a problem. A capable person will do the job carefully from the beginning. And training is very important too. Don’t worry, I’ll ask you guys to do it the day after tomorrow.”
“Thank you for understanding. We’ll do our best.”
「「Thank you! We are looking forward to working with you. 」」
“Un. Same here.”
Indeed. If you do your job well, the next one will come.
I may not have a lot of credibility yet, but I’ll do my best to earn the client’s trust.
