A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 826 Let's negotiate rye.
"Now, can I make some wheat tea...
Chef, who manages grain purchases?
"It's me, right?
Takeo stops working on the chef's words.
"... Victor, work with Mr. Meyer and the others to find out how much rye is sold and where it comes from at grain inquirers and distributors around the royal castle.
"Ha!"
"Gina should discuss with Smith Boy and Miss Alice the price of wholesale directly from Count Elvis territory (...) based on information brought to her by Victors.
"Okay, sir.
"Dear Takeo, do you wholesale directly to the royal castle?
Smith turns his strange face to Takeo.
"Yes."
"But don't you have an inquirer you're dealing with?
"There will be.
But the chef has declared that he only buys rye to match all the varieties.
I'm not asking you to stop the current deal, so it won't be a problem.
And as for the demand for wheat tea... well as using 1 kg every day, would you need 4 years if you think 30 kg a month, 360 kg a year, roughly until His Royal Highness Selina's child turns 3?
I still have to buy new rye for a long time.
Then maybe a small amount of the grain produced in Count Elvis' territory from the whole area, until we wanted to help farmers by securing a delivery destination.
"I see."
Smith nods.
"Plus, when His Highness starts drinking, the others may start drinking and the price may fluctuate slightly.
I don't know what to think there... Ah.
Something flashes as Takeo looks at Smith.
"... I have a rather unpleasant feeling there..."
Smith is frightened.
"Smith boy... no, the next Lord of the Elvis family.
I propose to wholesale the rye directly to the royal castle.
"Master Takeo, what have you changed?
Smith looks at me with his jito eyes.
"No, if I think about it, I don't think I can negotiate because I don't seem to have the authority to sell cereals.
So next Lord, why don't you take his place?
"?... Master Takeo talks about a lot of prices, right?
"As for the stuff I invented and got made, right?
Crops would basically be Elvis family jurisdiction, wouldn't they?
Besides, you might want to try from these splits and easy negotiations.
"But I'm still a minor, and I've never negotiated properly.
"Really? Then this is your first experience.
Takeo tells me that.
Smith is convinced that no matter what he says, Takeo will not change his mind.
"Ha... Dear Takeo, what do you do if you fail?
"You won't do anything.
Smith boy, isn't rye popular and eaten within the kingdom?
Until now, items that have not been delivered on a large scale will just not be adopted in the Royal Castle.
It didn't originally happen, so it doesn't hurt or fail.
Instead, if you're going to buy it, you can just have a track record of building one sales channel.
"Mm-hmm..."
Smith's gonna drool. Think.
"... things begin abruptly without separation.
Takeo groans bosomly.
"Ah!"
Smith looks up and sees Takeo.
"You're just getting your sisters together.
Shall I ask for help there?
You should talk to the chef about what kind of explanation you will give and what you will do with the amount offered and delivered.
Takeo says in a flamboyant manner.
"Will Master Takeo not think with me?
"I have barley tea to make.
I'm not leaving here.
Think in the Elvis family 4 sister brother (...).
Oh, you can come and talk to me if you want the materials and advice you need... but drop Gina off at the message at that time.
Gina, are you okay?
"Yes, sir. I'm in awe.
Gina will thank you.
"What about the chef?
"I don't mind.
Either way, I still don't know if I'll buy it.
If negotiations show good terms, I'll let you decide to buy within your discretion.
"Yes, thank you.
Then act, Victor, Gina, and Smith boy.
Oh, Gina, tell her I'll be taking the barley tea prototype in about three hours.
"" Yes.
Victor and Gina reply.
Smith nodded in dismay.
Smith and the others left.
"Well, I'll take it off for a second.
Takeo, who was in arms, tells the chef.
"Yes, I understand.
Which way? "
"I'm going to the Proprietary Office and the Economic Bureau.
"Okay.
What should I have the equipment for?
"For now, about three sets of frying pans and tea utensils. A few more smaller vessels, right?
"Okay.
"See you later.
Takeo leaves the kitchen behind.
"Well... I wonder how much the rest of the budget was now.
The chef also moved.
------------------------
In a room with the princesses in the royal castle.
"Excuse me, I'm back.
"Excuse me.
Gina, Smith and Mari come in when permission is given.
"Ah, welcome back.
Gina, did you tell Master Takeo?
"Yes, tell me I'll bring the prototype in three hours... ah..."
Gina solidifies.
"Hmm? What's going on?
Alice listens back.
"No... I forgot to tell you how Lord Konoha said it would be made.
"?? But you said Master Takeo would make it, right?
"Yes."
"Then you know.
Alice laughs bitterly.
"Was Takeo also willing to make barley tea?
Konoha is tilting his neck.
"Yes. He said he was going to make it for pregnant women and children.
So, Dear Alice, Dear Jesse, Your Highness Leila, your husband has asked for you.
"What is it?
"Yeah?"
"Sometimes?
Alice, Jesse and Layla listen back.
"Master Smith is now negotiating amounts and quantities for the delivery of rye with the head chef of the royal castle.
She wants help.
Gina tells him seriously, but the faces on the spot are solidified.
"... Mr. Takeo, you're as quick as ever.
Selina says in a sigh.
"It reminds me of Uster Sauce.
Lorna also tells me as I make her look the same as Celina.
Erica also makes a subtle face with the other princesses and children.
It's the usual look on Mr. Takeo's face.
"Ha... I get it.
Smith, sit in front of everyone.
And Gina, will you let me know how you interact in the kitchen?
Jesse started partitioning places.
