There was nothing for them to be embarrassed about. In fact, we got down and bow to show how much we appreciated them. It was genuine. I gathered Natsuji, Goro and Hinata together. "What to you guys need from me to make this a massive success for the village and clan?" They looked at me and smiled. There were 2 tasks from each of them. 1 was optional. That optional task determined how well regarded and prestigious the wedding would be. For Natsuji, it was writing over 50 of them. There were that many households in the village, there were not only ninja living here. There were also farmers and a tanner. The Tekkas' father was the resident blacksmith. If I had to help, this was the worst one for me. It was a daunting task to write that many. If I wrote another 50 on top of the ones that he had been working on, there would be enough to invite people in the nearby town. I would just love having that mayor attend the wedding. The real task would be delivering them all to the people in the village and the town. That was something I could get to work on and do all by myself without help.
Goro did not have money on hand for this task. He was so far down as the fifth son, it would be seen as rude and shameful to ask for that amount of money for a friends wedding. Even if his father was that rich or magnanimous to him, he could kiss his own marriage prospects goodbye. I was not going to do that to him. He was a chunin and a good shinobi. His task was to get $8,000 for the decorations that he wanted to buy in town. The optional task was split. I could either create decorations on my own somehow, or give Goro $10,000. That would increase the prestige by quite a bit. I had not the foggiest clue how to make wedding decorations. That was not happening. I just had to give him the money. I had not spent any of the money that was given to me this whole time. Everyone stated out with 1000 lin. Lin was the currency of the big server with the main game. Sub-worlds could be radically different. I bought the game in the first week of FOG's launch. That gave me a bonus 1500 lin. The current exchange rate was 1 lin for $100. I had $250,000 at game's start. I also was making money.
With all the missions we had done for the clan, I was up to $365,930 now. Giving Goro $10,000 was not going to hurt me. When he saw the cash, he nearly fainted. "This is going to go a long way. You're wedding is going to be a massive festival!" he said. I just smiled at him. That was one of the members done. We had 5 more to go. I just cringed thinking about it, but I needed to go see Hinata. She had to find a place for the consummation ceremony after the wedding was over. It had to have a bed and a set of chairs on either side for family members to watch. We had to get a room first. The new houses for us had not come to fruition. The next best thing would be to go to an inn. With the amount of money I had, I could easily buy a house. It was on rural land owned by the clan, so it was not that difficult. I could purchase a nice building company to make it for me. For $15,000, I could get them to make a nice house. After browsing some really good designs on the internet, one caught my eye. For a little over $340,000, I could build a really nice house. It was 2 floors with 3 bedrooms. 2.5 baths.
