"I could help her now, but I'd rather ignore the obvious that's about to happen if I don't help her, so I can get more brownie points later when saving her from slavery -- I mean, woah, I totally didn't see this happening..."
@KTheXIII When it comes to this MC and his obvious capacity of taking proper action (or lack thereof), it's not really surprising at all.

While I do wanna give MC some flak for not price-checking his wares, his means of production are different, so this is honestly not a bad deal for him. It draws attention and tanks the local economy, but as established in the first chapter, f*ck this kingdom.
Slavery, huh? The perfect employee/bodyguard for him is in a pinch! The question is, will he pay off her debt and hire her, or just outright buy her? I mean, either way she'll be in debt, but there's still a bit of a moral difference between taking a corporate slave and literal slave.
I mean, he could also pay off her debt for free and she can follow him out of personal loyalty, but somehow I don't like that idea. It draws even more attention, gives me a bad self-righteous aftertaste, and is kinda emotionally manipulative on a narrative level.
As a side, she really should not be using swords. For someone with as much obscene strength as her, blunt weapons would work better-not to mention she wasn't very good at avoiding unnecessary clashes with a sword.

Thanks for the chapter!
Guy really should keep better track and check ahead for prices of things. Considering he got a booze tree after burying a practically empty bottle does that mean if he plants a broken weapon he'll grow one or more broken weapons or whole weapons just like new? Be a good way to provide her with weapons then get more money by planting the broken ones and growing more. Although considering even mithril doesn't last one fight seems he'll need to carry six or seven extras per trip in case run into bandits more than once and maybe help her hold back enough to damage the enemy without breaking her weapon. He should have enough money to get her out of trouble or buy her as a slave. Curious to see if slavery is just by applying magic to change person's status, specialized skill/magic, or using magic items like an enchanted collar or something. Since she's on the cover I'd say it's a give he's going to help her out somewhat. Although whether as his slave or employee will remain to be seen.

@Psychronia - agreed. There is no need for a merchant to just go along with established prices. He is a heroic merchant anyway, he is supposed to be better than normal merchants.
@xwhiteray @boag
Destroying the local economy? It's screwed anyway, since they have a food shortage. Maybe it'll drive the misfarming cartel out of business and pave way to proper food production in the end.
Economics isn't all about protecting existing businesses. It's about new businesses appearing as necessary and driving out the ones who are bad at their work or too greedy.

Two things:
[ol]1.- The country is currently in a rather severe crisis/shortage; while it's certainly true that his method will tank the economy in the long run, him selling essentials (such as food and clothing) at such low prices will allow the common people to get out of the crisis much quicker and help them focus their resources into other things that are also in dire need of manpower.
2.- The sword was made out of mythril, a legendary material said to be next to indestructible; true enough a blunt weapon would be much better suited for her inhumane strenght and would last much longer, the sword was NOT supposed to break in the first place, or at least not that fast.[/ol]

I doubt she'd be any good use as a sex slave either; pretty sure she can easily kill the "weapons" of her would-be customers
