A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

"Even trench coats can crumble if you don't look for big mouth customers.

"Mm-hmm.

Can't you just say you want to make this in the king's capital?

King Azpar asks Takeo. The manager makes his face catch on to the words.

"Please stop. Are you willing to crush what sprouted here because of this?

Besides, contractually, we're not going to call this product a trench coat, so... if we find a counterfeit in the city, we're going to impose sanctions.

If you find something similar, it's the king's capital, but you're going to punch that contract in the shield, right?

"Huh. Wang Capital's union doesn't know the contract.

King Azpar laughs at Niyali and Takeo.

"... and when that happens, we'll distribute even more new products to troublesome Wang Du tailors, right?

Besides, all the people in King's Capital can do is replicate, right? You don't think people who don't understand the concept of a coat can make more than a trench coat here.

"Mm... it's..."

King Azpar worries about Takeo's unexpected counterattack.

"An outdated tailor, or a third class who thinks nothing of the people because the idea is poor because he only uses nobility? Wouldn't it be troubling if we let the rumors circulate?

So, this one will make a variety of products for each region.

"... you won't wholesale it to Wang Du?

"I'm not going to defend people who ignore contracts, so you just have to wear irreplaceable things and be great at all times.

I will strengthen the sales and design skills of the tailors here to create and show exclusive clothing for each region.

"Mm-hmm... don't bother with that... the Wang Du will no longer be cutting edge.

"If Wang Du wants to be state-of-the-art, he needs the forgiveness to recognize this contract.

And merchants are required to look at clothes of various concepts and have the originality to fuse and develop them independently.

To be honest, I don't think the artisans in Wang Du can create new concepts of clothing even if they can dress beautifully.

A new concept of clothing... have you ever made it?

"Right, huggers don't make new clothes.

If you look at the products here, you'll see that they're making derivatives.

"Right. The product here is very unique.

"If you can redesign and wholesale the products here from store to store, I think there will be more variations than making them over there, right?

And because it's a region, you can think of all kinds of ideas that don't stain the glory of certain nobles.

Maybe I'll just deliver the basic design clothes and then decorate them over there, so I'll buy them out of the blue.

"Well, so is that.

... Store Manager, would you be willing to arrange for a trench coat sale contract between the union here and the union in Wangdu?

"Huh!?

Suddenly the manager doesn't hide surprises.

"Is it okay for Mr. Alan to decide?

Isn't this the kind of thing that unions discuss with each other?

"Well, that union is full of nobility and we can't talk about it.

Then it would be better for me to move closer to His Majesty just now.

Besides, I think the product here is interesting, so I want to wear all kinds of variations in the future.

"Is it that easy for the union to move?

"Hehe, Takeo doesn't know how awesome I am.

But I'm busy too, so I'll make it William.

"Oh, me?

"You're free, right?

"Well, you're not busy.

William accepts a compromise with the union.

"Really..."

Takeo thinks a little.

"Do you want to do it, manager?

"Yes!! I'll be happy to move our union!

"Really... shall I give you a little of my opinion?

"Yes."

"I don't want the basic trench coat specifications to change, but I think we need compromise enough to leave the decorative relationship to the other side.

But only in this city, please, the factory that makes the coat.

"Yes. Non-changeable specifications and counterfeits in that area shall be a sanction clause.

"I'll take care of it.

"So, we will summarize it with the policy of delivering trench coats with the basic design that Kitamizato said earlier, but we will deliver the commercial use that we are making now.

It's a hassle to change the design from now on, so...

Assume that if you do not change the position of your pockets, collar, etc. after delivery, you will be allowed to change the design.

And be sure to ask us to send one.

"I see, to find out the popularity of Wang Du, right?

"Yes. I will look and study within our union.

"That would be good. The fashion changes all the time.

Trench coats are tied, but it's ants who try to refer to other clothes when selling them in Wangdu, isn't it?

"Yes. As far as we're concerned, we'll make it that way.

"I don't mind. As far as I'm concerned, it's more troublesome about discussions between unions.

"Really?

"Yeah, it's a tailor union where Wangdu's pride seems high, isn't it?

Then I think this one needs to play a little play.

"Ho. Takeo, you know.

"On second thought, you'll see.

The scenario I have in mind is simple.

First, I would ask you to discuss it with Wang Du and the union here, but I would also ask Mr. William to be present in the name of making it fair.

"Yes."

William nods.

"In that seat, this union would like to make a fairly high demand.

"Erm... in how long?

The manager asks.

"Absolutely not changeable, if you want me to change it, turn the design over here. The delivery date is determined here. The sale price is determined here, etc.

From the side, it's impossible.

"That sounds like something that would come to mind if you were told to be a merchant.

"So, where the other union got angry, Mr. William, have the shoulders of the union of the King's Capital.

"Yes."

"Then it's all too profitable for you, so instead of admitting to producing clothes there, he wants you to be free to make some changes and decide on the selling price.

"I see.

King Azpar nods.

"So, exit at one end, open up time, and then set up your seat again, and this side promises absolute strict adherence to earlier specification requests and delivery times.

For example... is it assumed that the delivery time from receiving the order to the store is two weeks, subject to the purchase of every 10 clothes in a single order?

"Actually, is it about a week when you think about transport... not hard, but you do it a little bit impossible.

The manager says as he estimates in his head.

"Yeah. You'll see that over there, so why don't you show a compromise by saying, 'I can't do this one either'?

"I see that sounds like the union in Wang Du is going to snort, too.

William says with a nod.

"And why don't you go like this for the general story? I thought so.

"Hmm, if Takeo's way of saying it, the union in Wang Du is likely to compromise, too.

Then pack the bottom prep with the union here and William.

"Father, I understand.

"I'm in awe. I'm going to explain it to our union tonight and persuade them.

"I'm sorry, it's like a business meeting all of a sudden.

Takeo says with a bitter smile.

"No. As far as we're concerned, it's a delightful event.

and the manager says it back in a flamboyant way.

And, Layla and Alice are coming back.

"Oh? Looks like your stepfather and William are having fun.

"Oh, that was a meaningful discussion.

King Azpar says as he nicks.

"A new job has come to me.

"Oh, the show of arms.

and William and Layla converse with each other.

"Then we're next.

King Azpar and William were headed back.
