In front of fertilizers that were categorized by its purposes, Kazura folded his arm and worried about which kind of fertilizer would be a good choice.
Then he inspect the description that was written in each bag.
「If only they write ‘It’s for other world’s crops’ it would be nice....... I wonder if this fertilizer is for potatoes.」
While Kazura was mumbling and loitering by himself, an employee, that had seen him, approached him.
「Are you looking for something, Sir?」
「Yeah, I looking for a fertilizer for potatoes. Which kind would you recommended?」
「Ah, then this type is good, Sir. Although it smells bad.」
The employee guided Kazura to bags tin which ‘Manure’ was written in it.
It sure had a peculiar smell but the fertilizer's information box said that it can be used for potatoes.
「Do you want to use the fertilizer for Potato ,Sir?」
(TL Funfact!: This word for the Potato in here isガイモ Jagaimo, while the other potato [without capital] was imo芋. Jagaimo refer to Potato [Solanum Tuberosum] while Imo refer to any kind of tuber part of a plant but also can mean potato. Should I change all potato back to tuber?)
「Well...Something like that.」
That small potato that was eaten in that village had different taste than Potato. But a tuber is still a tuber, so he thought that there will be no big difference between them.
「Then, even if this was manure it’s safe to scatter it. Also,......」
「fumufumu....... Then, I'd like to buy the fertilizer that you just explained.」
Kazura heard the employee’s explanation about this and that on raising Potato, so he more or less, had some understanding about the fertilizer that he wanted to buy.
「Ah, yes, thank you very much. Do you want take one bag?」
「No, I like to buy everything that is in here.」
「...... Eh?」
「I wonder how many kg all this will be...」
Kazura was mumbling while gazing at the fertilizers and walked away. The employee that just heard ‘I will buy everything’ was still frozen in place.
「Wa-wait a moment Sir!」
The employee was half-running to Kazura. Kazura wait for a minute until the employee with 「Manager」 written on his chest reach Kazura’s place.
(TL: Senior Staff? Had a better name? The kanji means person in charge, so Manager? I never work in Retailer shops....) (ED: I changed to manager, since yeah, that is the position in retail referring to those in charge of other employees)
「Sir Customer , I think that I heard you want to bought every fertilizer in the store, but...」
「Yes. Everything, please. Also do you have a folding pullcart? I wonder where do you put it.」
「Uumm, even if you intend to buy everything Sir, the manure is about 400 kg..... If it is for Potato, then for a 100 tsubo field then 30kg manure is enough.」
(TL: 1 Tsubo is 3.31 squaremeter. So 100 tsubo is about 331 square meter or 0,331 hectare. What acre? Please, I’m a metric person, so sorry never heard of it...)
Hearing ‘400kg’ from the Senior Staff, Kazura groaned.
The Manager thought that just like what he expected, the customer made a mistake in the amount he needed, but that expectation was terribly wrong.
「I’m sorry, I want to rent this shop’s truck. If possible, I also want a help for loading and unloading the manure.」
The Manager flinched for a moment after hearing Kazura’s word, if he really intent to buy then it can’t be helped.
The other employees that stood near them were in deep amazement before they started to calculate the total amount of fertilizer, while Kazura was led into the place where they displayed the Pullcart.
