"Excuse me for a second. What's all this fuss about?

I don't feel bad about being talked to by a pretty girl with big tits. The young man, about 17-18 years old, who was talked to by Pauline, was happy to explain.

"Oh, the three of you over there. Looks like the shopkeeper here, the big Chamber of Commerce owner, and the Baron's butler.

Anything, the baron lady was sick or something, and she tried to pick up the biologic medicine she was waiting to arrive, and the owner of the Chamber of Commerce broke in from the side to buy it. "

The young man told me so, pointing to three men who were arguing in some way.

"" "" Eh... ""

It won't.

All four of us thought so.

In the first place, if the store owner clearly says no, "because it's an item from an appointment".

When Pauline says yes to the youth.

"That's true. It's just that it's hard for a small shopkeeper to resist a big chamber of commerce. There's a lot of hard talk about factions in commercial guilds and power."

"But if they're ordinary people, aren't they the ones who use nobility! Can I defy the nobles?

When Pauline asked, the young man clasped his shoulders.

"Dear nobleman, it is not uncommon for a poor baron to be in a weaker position than a large chamber of commerce. Regardless of how aristocratic you are, you can't disrespect civilians like that in Wang Du. It's not just that when they become big dealers, they see it as intentional murder for profit.

Besides, that's just the butler there, not the nobleman himself. You're weak. "

…………

Pauline, thanking the youth, turned to the Miles. On its face, there was an obvious expression of discomfort.

(((Oh, here I come...))

Miles and the others have seen that look on Pauline's face several times. Yes, that was the same as miles of faceless expression.

Apparently, he got hooked on Pauline's "Being a Merchant," but Pauline's doing pretty nasty things, too, and for one thing, I couldn't grasp that criterion of judgment. Also, when I said 'as a merchant', Pauline was the daughter of a merchant, and it didn't mean I was a merchant.

But to put it that way, I'm not sure what the mileage criteria are, and Mavis is making his value judgment in the position of a knight, but it doesn't mean he's a knight now.

... a topic that should not be touched upon. Everyone never tried to touch them.

"So it was for the lady, who is sick to you, that my Baron family!

"But it doesn't mean we exchanged contracts, or we paid in advance, does it? Then selling it to those who give it a high value would be the right option as a merchant.

Isn't that right, storekeeper?

That being said, honest but weak shopkeepers did not have the courage to turn leading merchants against their enemies, nor the courage to unilaterally refuse requests from aristocrats. So that's all I could say.

"Well, if you both decide to wear it..."

Yes, several times now, this response from the store owner was the culprit who created the adhesive state.

Pauline turned a blind eye to the other three, making sure they all snorted before interrupting the conversation between the three men.

"May I have a word?

Normally, around the Chamber of Commerce owners say, "Whoever doesn't matter, pull in!" or something like that, but I don't know if it was because the story was glued, because the Chamber owner was convinced of his advantage and could afford it, or because he was intrigued by the entry of the foursome beautiful girls, but I got an unexpected reply.

"Yeah, that's fine. What is it?

Pauline, who was going to interrupt forcefully, was a little overwhelmed, but this is fortunate if you say yes, I asked her a question.

"Um, I naturally understand why the butler wants the goods because of your daughter's illness, but what is the reason why the owner of the Chamber wants them? Are you still better off sick?

In response to Pauline's question, the Chamber Lord replied with a laugh.

"No, it's not like that. I am a merchant, so I buy what is worth the merchandise. That's all."

"" "" "Huh?

Surprise and bewilderment were leaked not only by Pauline and the other members of The Red Vow, but also by deacons, shopkeepers, and people who were gathered at the look.

Everyone thought that the owners of the Chamber of Commerce were also eager for that biological medicine under some circumstances, and that was why they were pushing it with forceful means.

That's just for making money?

Is that why you embezzle the biological medicine for the sick aristocratic lady?

Besides, I won't even try to hide it, and I'll spread the word shabby.... was an act of questioning common sense.

"... is that such an expensive thing?

Pauline asked the shopkeeper that now.

"Yes, no, it's thin because it's not much to pick, but it's not something that sells that way, and the biologics are almost unprocessed, something that stays picked, so it's not that much price...... That's about five gold coins for six days."

Five gold coins, worth about 500,000 yen in Japanese yen, are used for biologics that I don't even know if they will work. But to that extent, it is by no means cheap for the common man, but for aristocrats and rich merchants, it is not much.

"Do you imitate selling fights to aristocrats for that degree of stuff? Besides, if you spread the word about it, it will discredit the Chamber of Commerce. How could you do that on purpose..."

To Pauline's question, the Chamber Lord answered flatly.

"No, because at my place, we specialize in large deals and wholesale, and we don't do retail, except for noble opponents. It doesn't matter what the reputation of the civilian population is.

And the five pieces of gold that the shop owner there says are normal, if that's the case. If someone really wants it, the value is the seller's value.

Later, you can sell 'I really want it, I don't know when I'll get it if I arrange it from now on' to this Baron family for ten times the value, or to the aristocrats who conflict with the Baron family for a higher price.

I don't know how that rival aristocrat would use the medicine he bought. "

Deacon of the Baron family who hears that and turns pale.

"Ha, sure...... But as a merchant..."

"Outside road, is it?

Chamber lord ahead of Pauline's words.

"So what about the auction? It's a way of squeezing as much money as you can get out of whoever you really want, regardless of the value of the item or the value of the purchase, but no one can accuse you of that, right?

"Ugh..."

That's what they say, Pauline, stuck in words.

Sometimes Lena says, "Help him" on the back of a mile, but no matter how many miles, she doesn't come up with a good return.

Miles is arguing that, uh-huh, there has been a suggestion made by the Chamber of Commerce owners.

"Even if we do this, we will not give in to each other.

What do you say, the word 'auction' just came out, and now we have an auction here, and you win it, you buy it? Doesn't that make the shopkeeper's house profitable, and you don't have any complaints?

Of course, the money is to be paid in full here now, no late payments. "

With that said, the Chamber lord took the wipe bag out of his nostalgia.

(Because of the swelling of that wipe bag, even if everything in it was gold, it's not that big of a deal.

When you add the reserves you always have in case of unforeseen circumstances that you don't know when you will need them, and your personal money, no matter how you look at it, you can't go below the contents of that wipe bag...)

The aristocratic butler gazed at the wipes bag with sharp eyes and decided so.

"Nice to meet you. I agree with that decision!

((Ahhh...))

And Pauline with her hands on her forehead and miles to clasp her shoulders.

Lena and Mavis seemed completely unaware, but Pauline and Miles, of course, did. That there is no way that a merchant of this hand can hold a winless battle on such occasions. And the modus operandi, too, was somehow speculative.

And many of the surrounding audiences, especially the majority of the merchant-like ones, looked at the butler with the same face of shoulders, bitter laughter and pity......
