I Shall Survive Using Potions!

255 Unexpected Enemies 1

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kaol!"

"What is it? What is it?"

One day, the branch manager came to Little Silver.

... and your complexion is not good.

That's a bad story...

"In the meantime, go inside....."

Then they asked the children to prepare tea and tea confectionery.

Yeah, I also have a variety of technologies and hospitality so that I can become a maid and a waitress in the future.

There are many other things like cooking, washing, sewing, etc.

For the future of the children.

... the most important thing is to make it easier for us, though.

No, I pay my salary and hire it, so there's no problem.Nothing, I'm not letting you work for abuse or for free.

Right now, Reiko and Kyo are on a business trip.I'm the only adult here.

The children wait outside the room after Meine serves them tea as a waiter, while others make dried goods.

The branch manager seemed to have settled down slightly after drinking the tea that Mine had brewed.

Ah, we always call it "Branch Manager," but the official title is "Muno, Branch Manager, Tavolas Branch of the Relinas Chamber of Commerce."

The Lelinas Chamber of Commerce, with its head office in King's Landing, seems to be the fourth to fifth largest store in the country.

Anything, it seems that the top three stores are called the "Three Major Merchants", and it seems to distinguish the line from the fourth and below.

In other words, they are part of the second group that follows the lead group.

"... so, what's the matter?"

When I asked him that, Muno lowered his head just to the table...

"The owner of our Chamber of Commerce......, Drain is planning to sell exclusive products wholesale from Little Silver, and it seems to be somehow soft..."

"Yeahhhh! I mean, right now, we're all in charge of sales in King's Landing at Muno's... King's Landing Store of the Lelinas Chamber of Commerce, right?You already sell exclusively! "

Yes, in order to avoid trouble and reduce clutter, the lord is collecting and wholesaling everything about King's City to the Lelinas Chamber of Commerce through the branches of this city.

That's why I just told you that Mono-san had it unloaded from us, but formally or correctly, it was "unloaded from the lord here."My name is not on the table.

"That's right, the chairman of the chamber of commerce is not tired of it alone, and seems to be trying to buy all the things that are sold to this territory, the surrounding territory, and other nearby cities, and send them to the capital of the kingdom, that is, the headquarters of the Lellinus Chamber of Commerce..."

"Ah ~, you're greedy... But you said at the reception that we would never admit it, right?That should make Muno a proper jetty as branch manager..... "

Yeah, I should've asked you to deal with that.

"Yes, of course, as branch manager, I promised to be a jetty to the best of my ability, and I was going to do everything in my power to do so.

But.... "

"But?"

"I was relieved of my duties as branch manager and became a hirasha employee....."

"Nh, whaaaa!!"

Not even the deputy branch manager or the warden, Hihei!No wonder, it's just a formality...

"Mono-san, what the hell are you doing... you can't be here.

A new branch manager from Wang Dynasty brought his men here to monopolize the business..... "

"Ahahah...."

Laugh without strength, Mr. Muno.

Yeah, this is the only way to laugh...

"Even if you're planning an exclusivity, why don't you tell Mono-san?

Well, it doesn't matter if Muno accepts it or not, that's what you order, right?

But I haven't talked to you before, and now suddenly you've brought me such a story..... "

"Yes, as you can guess, this is the first instruction.... in other words, it's all the new branch manager's business without asking questions.

The monopoly of the product is certainly a big purpose, but as important as that, the purpose is to get the new branch manager to take advantage of it.

Well, the reason is easy to guess..... "

"... there, learn more!!"

Yeah, it's the merchant's hobby to crush his purpose to the point where he doesn't have perfect skin, to make him lose even more, and to make a big announcement of his incompetence.

The merchants gathered in the garden of merchants pass through the merchant gate with an innocent smile like Ebisu-sama's today.

Wrapped in dirty body and mind are dark colored garments.

It is a good idea to walk slowly here so that the contents of the pocket drawstring bag are not reduced and the Dafuku Book is not flipped.

Of course, there can be no such thing as a disgraceful merchant running away with a deficit.

Little Silver.

This is the first chome of hell.

... shut up!



"... I see, it's easy to understand!"

Yes, Muno's story was too easy to understand.

The trail of the big shop is a political wedding with the daughter of a big shop in a neighboring country.

It is meant to strengthen the connection with each other's shops and close the eyes of betrayal, without love for each other.

And as a matter of course, not mistress... but concubine or second lady...

A woman who is not a disposable person with no rights, such as a mistress, but is properly recognized by her true wife and ensured a decent identity, with the payment of living expenses and the recognition of the child, as well as the child's right to inherit the home.

At home, I live with my wife and children, and sometimes I raise children together with my wife...

So....

The eldest son: the son of his wife, the eldest daughter of a large store in a neighboring country.Seriously, I'm going to be a real merchant.

Second son: The son of the Second Lady.The procedure is good, and my head turns around.... in the direction of wisdom. Femininity is bad, and women employees and the wives and daughters of male employees are also targeted.I don't care about evil.

... and naturally, a succession struggle.

Normally, it would be natural for the eldest son, the son of his first wife, to succeed him.

However, the eldest son was forced by his predecessors to marry the son of his first wife, who greeted him reluctantly.

The second son is the son of a woman he truly loved, who had been socializing with before he married his first wife.

Yes, the owner of the Chamber of Commerce wants his second son to inherit the trail.

However, there is no way that his wife or his parents will admit such a thing.

However, many of the employees are positive about owning a second son, considering that a good man and serious eldest son is unsuitable for supporting a large shop, or drawing on the will of the owner of the Chamber of Commerce.

... yes, the Lillinus Chamber of Commerce certainly does not leak to most of the big shop examples, and instead of yawning and illegal wrestling behind it..., it also obviously does' cross the line with a big crotch (again) and across the other side '.

If [serious, good boy] becomes the head of the Chamber...

Yeah, it's no wonder we have employees who feel at risk.

It has nothing to do with that. Lower-end employees may welcome you, but those who are up there, those who share the burden of bad deeds, those who stain their hands with bribery, corruption, or fraud will prefer turbid water rather than "clean water" as their place of residence.

... of course, the second son comes as the branch manager.

Normally, the branch manager of a regional city is the "foil seat before the birth"... experience and achievements as a commander... or the left transition destination for intruders and smokers.

And this time, of course, the former.

If you let your second son do a great service, then you let your eldest son make a big mistake, and let your second son get engaged to the daughter of some big shop, you will think that his wife's parents can't complain.

... yeah, well, that's it...

Ah, it seems that there are three daughters in total, but it seems that you have nothing to do with the inheritance problem.

"That's why, unfortunately, I can't keep my promise...

I'm sorry, sir. Please forgive me..... "

That's how Muno lowers his head.

Well, it's not like Mono-san's fault.Muno did not lie, nor did she betray us.

That's why I naturally replied...

"I won't forgive you!"

This is the only way.

Yeah, yeah!

And Monsieur Muno was astonished.

No, I'm not going to apologize for anything.

I'll have to explain that to you very carefully from now on.
