Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou! (WN)

The imperial civil war ends, and we return to our normal lives.

Hunting as an adventurer, searching for underground archeological sites by interacting with Ernest, civil engineering work in the county of Baumeister, and occasionally working as a nobleman.

There is no particular confusion as Roderich schedules well.

Winter is warm in the southern continent because it is winter, but the carnival and the New Year have passed, and a certain visitor has visited the place where the moon has changed.

When you are guided to a guest at the Baumeister's residence, the person will be heard in a light tone.

"I don't think there's any good business story."

The person was Arterio, the leading merchant of the Earl of Baumeister.

The merchant in a noble family is divided into a house with only one person and a house with multiple people.

Mr. Arterio's name, who is a pluralist but has the largest transaction volume, became famous in the royal capital.

Other merchants are also there to prevent certain types of complications.

Henrik, the second son of the mentor, was also appointed as a low-ranking merchant of the Earl of Baumeister.

He reportedly earns money by transporting people and objects throughout the county of Baumeister, using three small magic airships increased during the civil war.

"Even if something is unstable?"

"It's not unstable, but the chocolate business is a bit of a policy change."

Chocolate made from cacao from the Demon Forest is sold in the royal capital, but as the development of Earl of Baumeister has progressed and the amount of cacao brought by adventurers has increased, it seems that chocolate prices are falling .

"Is that something you can get so much?"

"Even if you take the fruit from the tree, it seems that it will return in less than three days."

"It's a terrible fertility."

"Greater than weeds"

Cacao is said to see a dramatic rise in price due to growing demand on the earth.

I think it's natural and it's amazing how you can take it all you want.

There are a certain number of people who go to pick and are killed by demons, so that's the only reason why it is difficult to obtain.

"Price reduction is fine.

Established chocolate manufacturing technology at the very beginning, and luxury goods have been used by royal and noble families.

Then, Arterio says it's time to produce and sell mass-produced products to wealthy and other targets.

"Prices have dropped a lot, and low-grade products can be eaten even once a month by ordinary people. However, it is not known to all residents of the capital city. Many people are thinking. ''

"In other words, do you need any advertising to spread it?"

"As expected, it's Count Baumeister. I'm familiar with business."

Because I'm an aristocrat, I wonder if I could be praised for my business talents.

I wasn't glad.

The days as a livestock were never wasted.

"Would you like to advertise a flyer?"

"I'll do that too. Actually, why buy some chocolate, or ditch an event."

"eh?"

I had a bad feeling about Arterio's remarks.

Sure, the month has just changed since the New Year.

"(Is that Valentine?)"

But why Arterio, a human in this world, is Valentine?

I'm actually hiding it from me, but is he also a reincarnated person from Earth?

No, I guess I should have done more on my own before asking for my opinion.

"What happened? Count Earl Baumeister"

"Some thoughts ..."

I seemed to be thinking too much.

I was worried by Arterio.

"We'll work with other chocolate-making firms to make the St. Valentine's Festival alive."

"What? Who is that person?"

Sure, it must be the person who was the source of the dark religious festival “Carnival” that made me decide to spread Japanese style Christmas.

"It's a famous saint. His wife, too, had a good story."

"Well, is that so?"

"Is Count Baumeister a church honorary priest?

"No, refreshing"

If you donate and receive the baptism, you will be named without permission, and you will not be interested in church at all.

In proportion to the church's long history, many past people have been described as saints and great achievements.

Because of the large number of people, it should be hard to remember everyone if you are not very interested.

If you go to the test and do not score to a certain degree, you will work hard and learn temporarily if you want to repeat.

I don't think I need to remember with limited memory.

The most important thing for people is now and the future.

There is no need to look back on the past.

, A teacher of Japanese history in high school said.

"I usually study a little, but ... uh, your wife?"

Mr. Arterio, amazed by my ignorance, talks to Elise.

"I think that's why I am. Cardinal Valentin's wife helped her husband, Cardinal Valentin, by hand-distributing handmade treats to poor children."

They seemed to have always lived in poverty, and never even gave each other gifts for their service activities, though they could live as much as they wanted.

"They knew each other. I would have loved each other without giving such a gift."

However, exceptionally, his wife has given a gift only once.

"The wife gently added a handmade cookie to Cardinal Valentin's coffin, who died earlier of illness. This was her first gift as a married couple."

Elise talks about the saints of the past with an enchanted look.

Sure, I think it's a good story.

Particularly, it is a kind of story that women cannot bear.

Here, you shouldn't think, "I'd rather give my husband the cookies that I made for my children."

Looking around, Haruka, Ina, Luise, Vilma, and Katarina seem to be impressed by the story.

"It's a wonderful love story."

"I like homemade cookies."

"There was real love between them."

"be moved"

"I know this story, but it's always great to ask"

If I die, the inside of the coffin may be full of homemade cookies.

Everybody was so impressed.

"So what's the relationship between the story and the chocolate?"

The calm El alone asks Mr. Arterio a question.

After all, there may be a difference in thinking paths between women and men.

Elle did not show any expression that she was moved by the story.

"That's why, on the day Cardinal Valentine died, don't give me chocolate ..."

"Does chocolate matter?"

"That said, nothing starts."

I understand that sometimes you need to be aggressive for your business.

Arterio's suggestion is that the commoners buy chocolate sweets and cakes at home and eat them together.

Wealthy and nobles want women to give chocolate to men.

"I don't mind my husband, my fiance, my father, my brother, or the servant of a caring home. If you are a nobleman, you might buy a lot of chocolate at a lower price."

After all, it was Valentine.

I think that somebody who gives chocolates seems to be leaning in step, but even in Japan in recent years, there have been advertisements to give Valentine's chocolates to various people.

“ Take care chocolate ”to give to those who have taken care of you,“ Fami chocolate ”to give to family members,“ Friend chocolate ”to give to friends.

It is obviously a confectionery maker's plot to increase sales, but Valentine itself is originally a confectionery maker's plot.

And what is scary?

"(Choice of chocolate will be changed to a lover. No, it doesn't take long for Arterio to say that there are husbands and fiances too ...")

If so, quite a few men will have a dark Valentine.

Yes, in my previous life, Valentine was as if my mother-in-law was 99 percent.

"(If you think, it was just chocolate-in-law ...")

Obviously three times return ... Which five times or ten times return is possible now, is it the only step-chocolate from my mother that allowed the group of white-in-law chocolates for White Day?

My favorite is only once I received from her in college.

If you find employment, you will have chocolates in law from female employees in the company.

The only people you can't get inside the company are those who hate you very much or those who don't think they can go away.

If you can't get it, you don't have a place in the company, but if you get it, the return is more than three times the basic chocolate-in-law.

One month later, on White Day, I just thinned my wallet and it was only an enemy, as I said from Valentine.

I'm busy working on chocolate imports.

Everyone has too much illusion with imported chocolate.

There are ridiculously low quality things inside, and with a lot of complaints we get busy trying to collect the goods and bow down to the seller.

Are commercial rules in Europe and the United States firm?

Speaking of complaints, the Western counterparts who are upset for some reason are surprising.

Someone hangs up and goes home because it's time to close.

It's less than the Chinese who pass their blame simply because their transportation is bad, not because of ours, but their irresponsible personality may not be related to race.

Anyway, Valentine had no good memories.

"(But why suddenly Arterio is planning something similar to Valentine?)

Perhaps something like a butterfly effect due to my reincarnation?

No, too much?

A little smart merchant might come up with an event to give chocolate.

"What about Earl Baumeister?"

"Um ... how about trying it out?"

"Yeah?-Isn't it something wrong?-But I don't always rely on the opinions of Earl Baumeister.

Mr. Arterio decided to hold a Valentine Modoki event in the royal capital.

I did not object, but it is different in my heart.

"(You can eat chocolate whenever you want! I'll definitely crush this Valentine!)"

No matter what else you put, I was swearing to me that I would never do this.

"A new event? Is it a noble job? Vell"

"No, not really ..."

Immediately, I will take action to destroy Valentine.

But, I wonder if Elise and others can be impressed by crushing an event that is so impressive.

It seems unlikely to be very popular, and Mr. Arterio is also a merchant.

Therefore, here we are going to make another event fashionable and carry out “Operation St. Valentin's Festival was not established”.

He called Elle for help, but he lied to him saying, "I'm worried that St. Valentin's festival will settle, so I'll suggest another event."

"Because it's our specialty, why not spread chocolate?"

"Chocolate is delicious, so it spreads on its own. Rather than that ..."

By the way, when crushing Valentine's Day, it is necessary to have a more attractive event.

In Japan, an event that takes place in the same month as February when Valentine is held, which is, of course, that event.

Although it lacks a bit of fancy, I want to compete well there and compete with Valentine.

Anyway, no one knows the original event.

"The hint is in the Duke of Mizuho!"

So he flies with Elle to the Duke of Mizuho in "Momentary Movement".

This time, we were traveling alone, because we couldn't afford to bring Haruka, who could lean to St. Valentin's festival.

The Duke of Mizuho was cold in midwinter, but the food was on sale at the store as expected.

"Roasted beans?"

"This is what anyone can buy."

"It's cheap ..."

In the capital city, it was the most commonly used food for livestock feed before tofu and yuba were spread.

“Setsubun” using this roasted beans should be an event that can compete with Valentine.

No, I raise this event.

"Is Count Baumeister interested in 'Transfer'?"

After arriving in the Duke of Mizuho, Takeomi who received my escort duty from Duke of Mizuho via Roderich heard.

He had low tension today due to the lack of Haruka.

Syscons that are easy to understand so far may be valuable in a sense.

"Propagate this transfer festival to the kingdom."

"Is it in the kingdom? But it's plain. What is the transfer festival?"

It is said that the transfer festival, which is similar to Setsubun, scatters roasted beans at the turn of the lunar calendar and pays illness. I have.

It was an event very similar to Setsubun.

"Your company ... I'm going to sprinkle beans on that side of the year in the church, so everyone goes to pick up ..."

Someone in the family picks up the beans for everyone and eats them at night.

Takeomi explains that the only thing left is to decorate the decoration made from the holly and fish heads at the entrance of the house.

"Hey? It's plain?"

"It's definitely plain ..."

"Well, vel. Can roasted beans beat chocolate?"

Lell points to a painful ear.

Certainly, delicious chocolate and roasted beans without taste or taste will not win.

After all, the original is only Setsubun, so it seems to be crushed by Valentine on a plain basis.

In Japan, the tendency is strong.

But I still have to fight.

To guide the future men of this world to happiness.

My fight will never be understood by anyone.

Still, I fight.

This lonely battle!

To crush events similar to Valentine!

"Not bad, but not good."

L expresses his impression while eating roasted beans purchased at the store.

It seems like you buy it and taste it.

"I think it's better to make Kinako."

Takeomi doesn't seem to think roasted beans can beat chocolate.

"In the Duke of Mizuho, there is a lot of trade with Earl Baumeister. Chocolate is over there ..."

Originally, a special corner was set up in a shop selling Mizuho sweets similar to Japanese sweets, and chocolate was placed there.

Price is expensive but rare, so it is full of many customers.

"I don't like sweets, but the new product" Matcha Chocolate "is delicious."

"(What did you say!)"

It is a fact of shock.

Although they are similar to Japanese people, Mizuho people have already started to modify imported chocolates.

"Is true……"

Chocolate sweets are placed in the special corner of the storefront, and there is matcha chocolate inside.

I try to buy and try it, but it is the matcha chocolate that I ate in Japan.

It's really delicious ...

"In addition ... kinakocho!"

Mizuho people who look down!

There was already Kinako Choco, and chocolate buns and Choco Daifuku were also sold.

"It's a wonderful improvement."

"Mizuho people love cooking and food improvements introduced from outside."

It seemed that there was not much difference from the Japanese.

"If this were to be exported ..."

It is a rare equal, if you are a noble, you buy it even if you hit a large piece.

If Arterio notices and sells at St. Valentin's festival ...

"If you do this, you won't win!"

I will raise a sense of crisis.

"No, cacao, the raw material for chocolate, is our specialty, so it's better to sell it."

El says, but I'm not against the spread of chocolate.

The purpose is to prevent the spread of Valentine's Day mushrooms for the hope of this world.

"After that, let's introduce not only roasted beans but also other foods!"

"I can't really understand Vell's ideas."

"Even if you can't, that's what Miya-serving is like."

Takeomi tells Ell to advise her.

"So, I'm moving like this ..."

"That's okay, Elvin."

-For some reason, El and Takeomi seemed to agree, but then we decided to prepare for a new event with us.

"Well, I'm Count Baumeister, the slayer of the dragon. I don't think the events I recommend would be as losing as St. Valentin's Festival."

"I don't wonder where Vell's confidence rises from."

A few days later, I prepared to keep Valentine out of this world.

While doing the civil engineering work said by Roderich, he was preparing food to spread with roasted beans.

"And this is the" Ehomaki "!"

"Is that a thick roll?"

Takeomi, who was lent to the Duke of Mizuho, asked a question after seeing a large amount of prepared Ehomaki.

Even in the Duke of Mizuho, there was no custom of Ehomaki eating at the transfer festival.

In Japan, customs were originally performed only in a small area.

It is also said to be an event set by a seaweed shop, and it is not surprising that you are not in this world.

"Thick rolls, but of course the contents have been improved."

In order to match the taste of the people of the kingdom, in addition to fried eggs, denbu, cucumber, etc., boiled shrimp, smoked salmon, tuna mayo, fried chicken etc. were added, and they were improved to meet the tastes of as many people as possible.

"Now you can beat chocolate!"

"Is that so? By the way, should I eat this Ehomaki and something?"

"Ell, don't just eat. You're in the direction of good luck ..."

Fly as you eat each one.

By doing this ... that? What happens?

Speaking of which, I knew Ehomaki, but I didn't know what would happen if I ate.

"... become healthy"

"It's like a quick response."

Elle starts to look at me with suspicious eyes.

"Anyway! Expand this custom and sell Ehomaki! Also roast beans!"

On Cardinal Valentin's anniversary, two events were recommended in the Royal City.

One is the St. Valentin Festival, which is held at shops and stores that sell chocolate with Arterio.

The other is the festival that we are trying to spread.

This is the custom of sowing beans and eating Ehomaki.

"Surely our victory should be ours! Elle! Takeomi!"

"Yes. No way, we're going to sell directly ...."

"It's fate of the servant of the palace ..."

Thus, the advertising battle between the two has begun ...

"It sells normally."

"It's good because it's selling."

"I mean, isn't the Ehomaki simply unusual and tasty, so it won't sell? I don't care about the festival?"

Lel's sharp point pierces my pure heart.

"The customer base is also biased ..."

Takeomi, who had been recruiting Arterios for reconnaissance as a reminder, came back and began pointing out what she noticed.

"Is biased?"

"Yes, St. Valentin's festival is almost exclusively female. This is mostly elderly and male."

"If you say so ..."

There are few female customers here.

Men seem to have a lot of manual labor for old people who want to buy it for their family because it is a rare food.

"This can be eaten with one hand, and it's good volume"

"I don't care about the transfer festival, Earl Baumeister. It sells but ..."

"It's a meal for working dads."

Yes, it's selling, but not in the direction I intended.

Ehomaki became very popular when a man busy with work was eaten with one hand and his stomach was full.

"It's good to be lucky and eat this one, but isn't it painful for women, children and the elderly?"

"If you say so ..."

It may be the reason that women and children don't get the support because they have made Ehomaki bigger in order to get a good feeling.

If it is said that you should cut it and eat it, it's until then.

"Do you want to buy souvenirs for your grandchildren?"

"There is old man support"

"If you eat with a few people, you should cut it."

While it sells, I don't understand why.

Is that because I'm just selling new food and not leading to the defeat of St. Valentin?

"But it's good because it sells? It will also promote sales of our specialty rice and southern trout."

This Ehomaki, the rice is from the growing count of Baumeister, and the smoked salmon is from Nampouma salmon that lives in the county of Baumeister, which also started its aquaculture business.

"As a Duke of Mizuho, the museum was pleased with the promotion of seaweed and vinegar,"

"Well, that's a huge success."

"That's exactly what Elvin said. Good thing, Earl Baumeister."

No, it's a commercial success, but it's still not excuses.

I went to a confectionery run by Arterio Shokai to see herself for a while, and found that chocolate and confectionery made with it were sold very much.

Moreover, there are many women.

I mean, almost women.

"Please give me thirty of these smallest chocolates"

"Thank you"

"It's an event where women give chocolate to men. That's also interesting."

A noble lady purchases a large amount of the cheapest chocolate.

Probably distribute it to vassals and servants.

"Let's buy this big one and go home."

It's bad and suddenly approaching Valentine's Day in Japan.

If left unchecked, Valentine will be a sad day for many men in the next few years.

"(But, the way to stop ...)"

If chocolate is sold, it will naturally moisten the county of Baumeister, which will also promote development.

As a lord, I can't help crushing this event.

"(What a dilemma ...")

Afterwards, he returned to work on selling roasted beans and Ehomaki at the Setsubun Modoki's transfer festival, but failed to eliminate the drawback of being sober and unfamiliar.

Ehomaki sold, but roasted beans did not sell much.

"Is it a sake knob?"

A small number of drinkers just bought it because it was cheap.

It seemed to be a low-priced version of pistachio and cashew nuts that would serve as a knob for sake.

"Would you like to sprinkle this roasted bean? Earl Baumeister, I'm not impressed with poor food."

I was preached by an old man who bought roasted beans for some reason.

I can't make an excuse because it's just.

"What's that? It's a face that doesn't float, Earl Baumeister"

Emaki rolled out and sold out, and Arterio appeared there.

"St. Valentin's festival is likely to take hold. We have to work to increase chocolate production. Earl Baumeister was glad that new food was sold. I would like to introduce you to new dishes ...

It may be because you were in a good mood because the chocolate was selling well, but Arterio seems to have misunderstood something.

I argued that I introduced and sold Ehomaki to sell rice and smoked salmon from the Earl of Baumister.

Indeed, selling food while introducing cooking methods is popular in Japan, but I sold Ehomaki to overthrow St. Valentin's festival.

I feel the frustration that you can't understand.

"I have now come up with a shop that combines Onigiri, a favorite of Earl Baumeister with Mizuho's Japanese sweets and Inari sushi. I'm going to talk to Duke Mizuho. "

In the end, both chocolate and Ehomaki sold, and although I made a lot of money, I could only feel defeat for some reason.

Because it is more likely that St. Valentine's Festival will become a real Valentine.

However, the dilemma of the lord who cannot stop it.

I had to admit defeat.

"Let's go away ..."

"It's a weird guy, even though he's successful."

"That's right, Earl Baumeister. In our territory of Duke of Mizuho, many people have invested in business and suffered great damage, and they are ridiculed as" Samurai Business. "

"I'm back"

I returned to the mansion, I was still depressed.

It was decided that a man who could not crush St. Valentin's festival and who did not stay forever would be accused as a war criminal who devised and spread St. Valentin's festival.

I did my best ... no, the result is everything.

Stop excuses.

"Is it Haruka, Count Baumeister?"

Since I've been helping me in the last few days, I've invited Takeomi to the mansion.

He looks happy after seeing his sister's face for a long time.

"I'm fine"

The date of the wedding with Elle was also decided, and now I often prepare and cook with Elise and others.

Officially, she is also a maid and escort of the Countess of Baumeister.

"Is your brother? It's been a long time."

"Haruka, how are you doing? Is Elvin cheating? Are you bullied?"

"No, not at all"

If you bully Haruka for being a Gentile when you are near Elise and others, you will not be able to be in the county of Baumeister.

Elle?

Although the wallet and stomach are grasped brilliantly on the buttocks, the person does not feel any dissatisfaction.

"Yes, I'm fine."

"Is your brother selling thick rolls with the mansion? Is it something that can be sold in the kingdom?"

"It has been improved to fit the tongue of the people of the kingdom and sold out because it is rare."

"Yes, that was good. Oh, yes."

Haruka presents the box with the ribbon in her hand to Takeomi-san and then to Ell, as if she remembered.

"Mr. Alteruo has started the St. Valentin Festival, so I tried buying it as well."

"That's done! St. Valentine's Festival is the best!"

Haruka gave me the chocolate, and they were so glad to hear that loud.

"St. Valentine's Festival is a necessary festival"

"Ehomaki should be sold normally."

They betrayed me with a haste with a piece of chocolate.

No, is that a mistake?

Because my ambition to destroy St. Valentin's festival is something only I know.

"(I'm alone now ... but there is no ambition to crush Valentine!)"

Yes, this is my battle for future men!

Even if you think that even one person …….

"Welcome home, you"

The Elises welcome me all together.

"I'm preparing chocolate today for the St. Valentin festival started by Arterio."

"I made hot chocolate, chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies, and much more, vel."

"Let's eat together after a meal, vel"

"Elysee-sama Ondo, we made it together"

"It's pretty confident."

Elyse seemed to have prepared chocolate for me.

"Did you hate chocolate?"

"No, I love it. I ate it before."

"Yes, let's eat together after dinner."

"Yeah"

I changed my mind immediately.

Can I get chocolate at St. Valentine's Festival?

It is spoiled.

In addition, there is too much noise because you can't get chocolate for one or two years.

Human, if you live, there will be some good things!

"(I love St. Valentine's Festival!)"

After that, by the time I died, the St. Valentine's Festival settled down in much the same way as a Valentine in Japan, and the Ehomaki settled in the kingdom with other nori maki and inari sushi.

The shops developed by Arterio will also flourish.

And whoever may have gained the most ...

"My father sold the Ehomaki, which was advertised by Count Baumeister. Onigiri and other scrolls will sell in the kingdom."

"Yes, my Fujibayashi family was good at becoming a boss at the end, but I was in trouble because I did not have enough money. I was wondering what to do with my side job, but I made the branch house a nominal top Do you want to sell and sell laver? "

"We can expect demand for unsweetened Mizuho tea and matcha as a confectionery ingredient. Why not handle dry matter?"

"Do you want to?"

Even in the Duchess of Mizuho, it is quite difficult to live in a variety of things if you are a poor junior.

The Fujibayashi family will later build a large fortune through the wholesale and sale of seaweed, tea, and dry matter, which began with Takeomi's recommendation.
