I Shall Survive Using Potions!

242 New Merchant 3

"So, you want to use the two floors, the first floor as a shop and small storage room, and the second floor as a residential area?"

"Yes, we don't handle a lot of items.We don't store hundreds of wheat bags, so we don't need a big one.I have enough stock to put in a part of the store or a part of the room upstairs.

So upstairs, three small rooms are enough. "

When Cao and Reiko arrived, they were alone.The remaining room is a warehouse replacement.

Kaol and Reiko will rarely come, and even if they do, they will all be together except for sleeping, so they won't have to stay in each room.

And I'm not sending outsiders upstairs.

Therefore, three rooms on the second floor are sufficient, but if you set up a sales floor, a small storage area, a toilet and kitchen area, and a bathroom on the first floor, it will be quite an area.Naturally, since the second floor would be the corresponding size, it actually looked like it would be more than four rooms.

That's right, at the civilized level of this world, we'll have to go upstairs.... externally.

Because it is a shop, so the customer may ask me to use it.

Besides, Reiko may be magical and kaol may be able to make potions, but Kyoko doesn't have that much useful ability.

Moreover, even if water and hot water can be managed, there are various problems such as drainage, floor strength, moisture, and other people's eyes.

Anyway, normal is the best.

(... ah. Is there a way to make a toilet, a bath, a factory on the mother ship, or to remove one of the ones on board?!There was no need for drainage pipes, atomic decomposition or anything on board.....)

Kyoko, who knows how to use the ship he built, of course has knowledge of the ship's equipment.

And listening to Kyoko's wishes, Bence, a sales chief, roared.

Probably assumed a larger property with a warehouse.Therefore, it seemed that I was removing the originally thought property from the candidate and searching other properties in my head at a high speed.

"Ah, and please use the pass to face the front street, many people's streets, and the center of the city.I'm not good at making noise.

It's torture to have a temple side or a clock bell ringing every three hours!Do the priests think everyone gets up with a bell in the morning and sleeps with a bell in the evening?There are many people in the world who work night shifts, who sleep early and get up before sunrise, who sleep late and get up before noon.... "

"Hah, hah..."

As for Bence, I just wanted the terms to be summarized first.

And...

"There are five properties that meet the criteria, but two of them will be removed from the scope due to the location conditions and other reasons mentioned later.

And of the remaining three, I will introduce you to the most suitable one.... this is it. "

I didn't see any papers and just thought about it for a while and suggested that, Bence.

Apparently, he remembered all the properties this store deals with.That's all there is to the sales chief.

And I gave Kyoko the paperwork about one property...

"No, I decide which property is the most suitable for my wishes.

In the meantime, please show me a map of the city and its five explanatory documents. "

Yes, Kyoko wasn't an idiot or brave enough to throw everything at a first-time dealer to decide his castle.

"Hmm...."

Kyoko looks alternately at city maps and property descriptions while thinking about them.

In the meantime, everything meets the conditions I mentioned at the beginning...

"This is too far away from the city centre and the slums are close. Bots!

This is too close to the temple.Pass because the clock bell sounds loud.

This is too big. This one has a slightly narrow sales floor.... so can you show me what's left of this property? "

"... what's left is the property I recommended earlier."

……

…………

………………



"This is the recommended property."

Bence, the sales chief, unlocked the entrance and led Kyoko inside.

... and for some reason, the store owner and the warden are following me.For a job like this, which is just one of the ordinary real estate contracts...

(I wonder if the store is free...)

"Hmm, it feels pretty good..."

The building has two floors made of bricks.It seems to have been a shop before, and although there is no general furniture or dishes, shelves and product displays using wall surfaces are left as they are.

Is it cleaned regularly? There is no roughness.

"The water....."

"There are no wells, so we need to use naivety to extract them from nearby co-wells.A property with a well in the backyard is desirable for a industry that uses a lot of water, but Saraettes only sells goods and will not be engaged in the manufacturing industry, so I wonder if it is a property without a well..... "

"Ah, yes, water is enough for drinking and normal life...."

I'm not familiar with drawing water from the outside, so Kyoko stays a little longer.

Kyoko puts a lot of water in the item box, so she won't actually be incapacitated by the water.Far safer and more delicious water than well water can be freely removed at any time.If the stock decreases, you can also pump a large amount of fresh water from the back of the mountain, sterilize, filter, and replenish it.I can refill the water synthesized on the mother ship...

Well, even if it hits the water, there is no problem if you drink the potion from the kaol, but mentally clean and safe water is still desirable.

(But there's something external about hiring people to pump water...I don't plan to hire any employees other than those with the minimum required, reliable identities, so I wonder if we can provide orphans with a place to earn money as a day job.)

Water pumping is a safe, physically trained job.An orphan would be a very thankful earner.

(... orphans are much cheaper than hiring adults...)

Kyoko is basically a good person, but she wasn't so popular and sweet.

And I checked every corner of the building...

"I bought it!!"

Kyoko made a quick decision to buy expensive shopping as if it were a supermarket instant sale....

I bought it instead of renting it to increase the credibility of the store, of course.

Naturally, the reputation as a merchant is very different between owned stores and leases.

And I'm not in trouble with money.Because there are a lot of gold coins saved by kaol in this world's "First Season"....

Since most of them have not yet been exchanged for cash, it is an "ancient money of another country", but Kyoko's position now... is the daughter of a leading person from another country... If it is a gold coin of a distant country, or it is a little old, it is not a big problem.It would explain everything, such as the gold coins that I had stored from my ancestors' days and slept in the warehouse.At the same time, it may be good to have some cash exchanged.

In addition, if the old gold coins show difficulty, there is a way to exchange the gems for cash or pay them as-is.I don't think they'll buy it by looking around, but even if it's an introduction from the Guild Masters of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry.You won't be imitated like that.

It is also because I believe that I bought it at the quoted price without much investigation about the store price.

Besides, I'm not in trouble with money, so if you're tricked, that's fine.

Kyoko thought so.

All you have to do is let the deceiver get a full reward later, and make him regret it.

This is the basic policy, so it is okay to be somewhat annoyed at the initial stage.

What happens to those who cheated and licked Kyoko?

Someone who can show off will improve the educational effect on others.

(We have plenty of items in the item box, so we can start selling them right away.)

Not only items made in Little Silver, but also items bought in distant countries, chemicals and perfumes made by kaol, spices, potion container series (pots, vases, glass bottles, skits, etc.), and simple industrial products made at the shipboard factory of the mother ship.

They were waiting for their turn.

In addition, the materials acquired by the new American hunter, Cannes, will be around in the near future.

Some of what was left without being sold to the Hunter Guild was for kaol charity and the rest for Kyoko's business....

Of course, the amount spent on Little Silver is kept in a separate frame.

(Ah, first, we have to decide where to install the bathtub....)

Kyoko and the three of them were able to maintain their cleanliness even without a bath, thanks to Reiko's method of "storing sweat and old waste in an item box."

... but not like this.

After all, baths were a necessity for women...
