I Shall Survive Using Potions!

"Oh, that's... we're happy to buy it for the price, but..."

With that said, I gazed at the guildmaster, the merchant.

Well, do you mind? As a commercial guild, you're totally crushed.

“No, I don't really want to sell it where it's going to be the most expensive.

As one of the goddess's servants, it is desirable that the profits gained from the dealings with me fall into the hands of the righteous, who are also the servants of the devout goddess...

That way, the profits from the jewels I sold will also pass to the next righteous person, and some of them will be used in a good way, and the circle of good will will spread.

At least that's much better than being in the wrong hands, wasted, lavished, or used to fund the next evil. ”

"... oh, oh! If that's the case, please!"

Yes, no merchant would say no.

Especially if it is a transaction that is sure to yield significant profits.

As if the guild was a bad person, and by buying it at the price of a small amount of iron, the guildmaster who wanted to make this matter "finished" instead of apologizing to me, had a reluctant face, but he would not be able to complain. In fact, that appraiser who was a guild official was a "bad guy"...

Besides, even if you buy it at the offer price, it doesn't mean that your guild will run into a deficit and lose money.

Even if the profits are slightly reduced, the profits will be well earned.

... I'll let you do that instead of apologizing.

"Well then, let's continue the story at the merchant's shop....."

Yeah, you don't have to go out of your way to let the Commercial Guild know about the deal between me and the merchant, or about any further consultations.

And the other merchants who are listening.

So, let's just get out of the conference room.

And while passing through the guild towards the entrance...

"Now, I will continue to give merchants who are more trustworthy than the commercial guilds a deal cheaper than the guild buy-in price!"

When I said that out loud, the merchant... looked a little surprised...

"I appreciate that!" Kind regards, Hahaha! "

... yes, he's doing well.

Of course, I wouldn't say that out loud if it was normal. Especially where there are a lot of merchants.

Therefore, I instantly understood that I had some intention and would have said intention, and even though it was an unfavorable information disclosure for me, I got on.

... you're not a big merchant, are you?

Now I know that I value trust over a small difference in selling price, that I give priority to dealing with trustworthy merchants over earning the goodwill of guildmasters, and that I still have a lot of merchandise to sell.

And even though it is a wilderness that does not belong to the temple, the priestess, the shrine maiden, is treated with respect.

At first glance, of course, many nobles and rich people think that they are more great than priests, etc., and some bandits attack shrine maidens without any problem.

... Of course, some nobles, rich people, bandits, and thugs will never touch a shrine maiden, and on the contrary, it seems that it is not rare to find a shrine maiden in trouble to help them.

"After all, this is the 'real world of goddesses'..."

And now the merchants in the Commercial Guild (here) are the same.

A minor child, a shrine maiden, who throws personal property and continues her charitable work.

A duck leek that sells expensive gems for less than the buy-in price of a commercial guild.

And perhaps my parents' house is super thick (...).

With all these conditions, if anything happens, the merchants will be on my side.

... mainly to sell me my gratitude and take it in.

It's a bit far from the guild staff, including the guild masters instead, but the guild staff are just hired people. Just because you're on my side doesn't mean you're getting paid more, so you won't be on my side until you're at risk.

And on the contrary, even if the guild loses money from me, as an employee, I don't care.

I'm just an employee.

If you have a strong sense of justice, in the sense of "helping a child in need", some of you might be able to help.

Well, the Guildmaster may feel a little unpleasant about "being crushed in the face", but the reason for this is the wrongdoing of the staff, so it's my fault that the supervisor is not careful.

So, at most, it would be enough to spill bumps and folly and not harass.

If you do that, you'll be ashamed of yourself. You just lose the trust of your employees and merchants.

Guildmasters aren't stupid, either. Don't be such a fool.

... even the same guildmaster or hunter guild might be that kind of idiot.

But big merchants don't confuse work with their own personal feelings.

That's what people under the age of three do.

That's why commercial guilds are neither poison nor medicine when it comes to things other than the business under their jurisdiction, but when they become shopkeepers, they do things to the extent that they do not take too great a risk, because of their connections and connections with golden vines.... according to my experience so far.

Well, if you can't read Risk and Return, then you can't be a first-class merchant.



And here comes the merchant's shop!...... the Opportunity Office.

Not a small booth, but a decent reception room.

The tea and sweets served are also pretty good.

... I wonder how to treat my guests.

As expected, the [Scorching Battle Maiden] was not given anything.

... or is there any escort to mouth the food and beverages served to the other side?

If something were to happen to them, they would kill them, and even if they survived, no one would ever hire them to escort them again.

I wouldn't hire an escort that stupid and untrustworthy.

So, as I said earlier, can you buy it for 90 gold coins?

"Yes, I hope so, but... are you sure you want to do this?"

While the buy-in price of the guild has the advantage that non-traders can sell right away without being tricked, it is considerably lower than if a decent merchant were to make a decent deal, as they need to add more profit than being caught between the merchant and the guild. If it's cheaper than that, we'll have a hard time...

It's also a fund that will be used for charitable work.... "

No, I know that from the beginning.

"No, it would be much safer and easier for a merchant to find a 'decent merchant' and challenge the challenge of 'getting a decent deal'." If that's the case, then it's not a big deal, as long as the selling price drops by a few percent.

All you have to do is increase the quality of your offerings by a little or a little. ”

…………

Well, merchants, you're stuck with words.

Well, my current dialogue is like saying that I don't care about the number of gems, and it's not strange to be told that I have so many gems...

Ah, it's not necessary to sell only gems.

"Shrine maiden, I have a favor to ask you..."

Oh, a serious request from a merchant with a strange face?

I don't think you're the kind of person who would say something strange, but I think the appeal of the rich was a little too strong.

"What the hell are you going to say..."

"Um, please, it's time for you to remember my name and stop calling me" Merchant "..."

"Ah....."

Yeah, well, that was my fault.

I don't really remember the names of people other than those who decided to continue dating, such as "merchant" and "guard", which is only a temporary contact.

That wouldn't be funny to them.

No, I'm sorry.
