Helping with Adventurer Party Management

Episode 92: I'm Not Here For A Friend

Thus, I became rich and happy by founding my first stock company in another world and developing groundbreaking products. Congratulations...

And I just want to say, that's not wholesale by the Inquirer.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

I'm pretty sure my life has changed.

Indeed, my life has completely changed since I started selling "protective shoes".

Leaving a bright, clean second-class neighborhood inn, behind a thin gorgogo workshop on a leather street that smells of chemicals and various smells, he has an office and residence with scattered garbage and paperwork.

The reason for the ultimate job proximity was that the workshop work was sometimes busy, but security issues were the biggest.

If you don't move, you won't be targeted.

Leather streets are safe in isolated areas throughout the city and restrict unwanted human access.

I said only Sarah could stay in a comfortable second-class neighborhood inn, but she was supposed to follow me and live with me in a more natural face.

Well, he was originally an adventurer and slept miscellaneously with his parents and brothers in a large room in the countryside where he was born, so maybe he's tolerant to some extent.

Now, Gorgogo's workshop is not very operational. Orders received from aristocrats, merchants, and leading adventurers gathered on the occasion of the event are too advanced in the content of the customization request, and the half-service craftsmen I hired don't have teeth.

They're in the middle of just tapping into simple motion until they can make a single move to the level I demand.

In this situation, I arrange for shoe parts, inspection and logistics to be delivered by leather street craftsmen.

Here's the main course of business.

Now, information on almost every order comes into the Sword Tooth Corps.

Most of them are through Jilboa.

There are many handouts of large merchants and nobles in Jilboa, so they are requested face-to-face directly at a feast, etc., or given a stamped letter by an accompanying squire.

All of that comes to me.

Precisely, every morning I go from Leather Street to the office of the Swordtooth Corps to check on the status of my order.

I can't help it because there are no human beings in the Sword Tooth Corps who can classify requests and make outsourcing and in-house decisions.

I review the request and sometimes leave it to our Gorgogo to match the technology and delivery times required, or outsource it to Kwan Workshop, which has previously undertaken 100 pairs of advance mass production.

There were times when I suspected that it wasn't Kwan Workshop who leaked the information, but I'm not complaining about their technology. He is good at partly designing according to the tastes of the aristocrats, and is highly skilled at wearing strange flickering decorations and gems.

I don't know if Jilboa has said anything to me, and I haven't looked particularly nasty since then.

But my day isn't over yet.

I inspect all the products that have been finished so far.

It's a situation that hasn't even gotten ten ten ten pairs of Nissan yet, so it's possible, but I'm the only one who keeps the last quality.

Are there any scratches on the skin? Is the shoelace broken? Is there any glue sticking out to close the sole? Are the stitches to be sewn on leather too open or bent?

It's not that I don't trust the craftsmanship, but I can't help but really understand the quality that I demand from my shoes.

At the end of the test, it is packaged.

Design a standardised luxury box with a baking mark and frame the finished shoe on the inside of the box with a red cloth and a blush made of soft straw.

Completely unique numbering for each shoe.

I also wear luxury oil and soft socks for care.

Sometimes I tell Sarah, "Are we gonna do this far?" Though frightened.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

A few days ago, I asked the Adventurer Guild to check my roster and confirm my enrollment in order to find out where the booking slip I had previously handed out by sewing between operations that would turn my eyes.

Because some of them may have stopped being adventurers or become unknown.

Nearly six months have passed since I first took my foot shape. I didn't expect them all to continue being adventurers, either.

But I lost my word when I heard the findings.

Thirty percent of adventurers were either dead or unaccounted for. The unknown location is whether he was wounded and retired or returned to the countryside. I wanted to think it was the latter.

I was stunned to see the result, as did Sarah, who happened to be present.

Because the roster of unidentified persons also included Kimberly, who had previously spoken about the bow.

I closed my eyes for a while, prayed for an unfortunate friend, then shut up and resumed my work.

As I negotiate with the big guy every day, paint him oil, hang out with the craftsmen, and watch him look over the books until late at night, Sarah says, "Did you stop selling shoes to the runaway adventurer with one big piece of copper coin? I stopped saying."

For rushing adventurers, sell shoes. Reduce the number of injuries. Reduce the number of defects. I haven't changed that mind.

But I need money to do that. I need a geographic edge. There is power.

Firstly, thoroughly sell the "Shoes of Guardianship" as a luxury brand.

That's how I earn my initial funds. Run the workshop with that money and increase production.

Increase the number of production until the market is saturated. That should bring the price down.

A brand is not what you do, it's what you don't do. There is a word.

So, normally, luxury brands squeeze production numbers. To keep the market hungry.

Besides, products produced with craftsmanship lose quality when produced in large quantities.

Skilled craftsmen don't grow up easy. So limiting the number of productions to keep prices and quality is a sensible way.

But I dare you, I'm going to break it.

Place a large number of quality branded products on the market with a thorough work process that breaks down the operations of skilled craftsmen.

In that sense, it destroys the market and makes it bigger. Make a product that reaches the runaway adventurer.

Hide that intention, and now just, bow your head to the nobles and the great merchants to earn the money in front of you.
