Naria was ready to listen to the financial matter that Aiko wanted to discuss.
The girl, in writing and possibly verbally, depending on what was easier to understand, politely reports on the expenses incurred and states that:
1) It would be good to replenish the emerald and topaz spent in battle and purchase similar stones in Abundance (420 rem with a discount).
2) For food until the end of the month, 20*5*10 = 1000 rem with discounts (if I am calculating the discount correctly, otherwise, please correct me).
3) For salaries at the end of the month, 1814 rem including taxes.
4) Experience with unexpected events shows that it would be good to have some money in reserve, at least 500-1000 for emergency expenses. If they are not needed, they will simply remain for the next period.
5) As a reward, Aiko would like to treat the soldiers to a more festive lunch than usual today, specifically 3 (presumably) Krakens at "The Young Drowned Woman." The gnome has heard about this dish, that it not only has a curious exotic taste that the guys will enjoy, but also has a good effect on productivity. Of course, it is entirely up to Her Highness, if she thinks it is appropriate. With a discount, it should cost 560 (?).
In total, Aiko requested 3334 - 3834, taking into account the amount the gnome has on hand, of course, if she managed to justify all the expenses convincingly enough (she tried).
