"Shiloh, Artur. Could you hang out a little after school today?
When I spoke to Shiloh and Artur, who became completely friendly, they both nodded with strange faces.
"But it's unusual. I'll go to my part-time job after school."
"If you say so, so is Shiloh. How's your day off?
I can hang out a little bit from night ~
Shiro made the OK mark with her fingers and smiled.
"So what are you going to do?"
Arthur, with a strange look on his cheek, looks at me.
Market research, Kana
So I take Artur and Shiloh on one of the main roads in the school capital.
The structure of the Centro School City is slightly similar to that of the Royal Palace.
There is a school in the middle, from which the main road stretches from east to west and from north to south.
East Main Road [Arvent]
There are many shops where adventurers like weapons, armor, and magic tools often stop by.
Not only are there students partying at school to do quests on the ground, but there are also professional adventurers who are already earning their living as adventurers.
West Main Road [Merchium]
Shops lined up with groceries, groceries, and other essentials for everyday life.
Those living in the basic school capital city do their daily shopping here.
South Main Road [Diaz]
Entertainment facilities such as restaurants and theatres line up. If you say you're going to play in the school capital, you're going to go to Diaz.
North Main Road, [Lasheni]
Mainly related to costumes. Decorations, jewelry, etc. Many are more expensive than those in Merquium, and there are many so-called brand stores lined up.
Due to the different characteristics of the shop in the east, west, south and north, the area around Merchium is inhabited by ordinary people, while the area around Lacheni is home to many noble mansions.
Incidentally, Julia's antique shop slightly enters the alley from Merquium and proceeds to Lasheni's side.
The products I originally sold were furniture and teacups, so this is the place.
That's why people who come to buy what adventurers like Magic Stone want know that this shop exists.
This time I'm going to market research with Merchium and Racheni.
The goal is to find a shop where you can sell the furniture that is fattening the shop.
I was glad to be alone, but I would like to hear the opinions of a third party, and I invited Shiloh and Artur, but when I walked between them, my size became noticeable.
No, actually, I think it's taller than the average height of the same age.
How long Artur is older and taller than me?
Shiro is even older and taller than average.
My overwhelming seniority.
I can't help it, but I feel like I've lost a lot!!
"Why? Which store did you see?"
I secretly despise both of you, Gilly! Arthur bent over a little and asked me that.
Stop. Don't bend over. I'm not tiny. Average height. It's still growing because it's a growth period!!
"For now, it's a grocery store. I want to buy some writing equipment for school."
"Ohhh. I also want to buy it and it was just right. We're going to the grocery store.
That's what Shiloh said to me when he bowed down even further.
What am I supposed to look up at when I'm bending over??
How much do you want?
Hmm. I don't know if that's it. "
The first place in the commercial war zone called Merkium is also the first place. A grocery store with shops in such a place [Fradino]
Although we have a shop on a communal street, its name value is a brand shop at one end.
Besides, as far as my usual story goes, Fradino seems to have grown so much since his current manager woke him up in a generation.
I'd love to hear that know-how, but if that's impossible, you can get a hint of it from the store.
When I entered the store, it was sometimes the end of the school, and I was busy with students.
In the meantime, I walk around the shop with all the consumables I use at school.
Shiloh started shopping separately from me as to what she wanted to buy.
Artur will follow me to see if there is anything else he wants to buy.
"Hey, Artur."
Ah?
I stopped in front of a showcase with a little expensive stuff on the side of the register, and there's a core and magic stone corner.
As I may have said before, the core is like a stone containing magic that can be removed from a monster, and the Magic Stone is a fossil containing magic.
Of course, Magic Stones are more expensive, but the core is enough for students to use in school.
Many of the magic stones lined up are second-hand if the amount of magic alone is used.
In other words, the store's products are low-end and students can't buy them if they work hard.
Well, it's still expensive.
"Do you think this is cheap in terms of quality? You think it's expensive?
Of course it points to the core and the magic stone.
"Cheap"
Immediate answer.
"I don't know. I don't know how much profit I could make if I sold it."
I think it's cheap, too. It's rather too cheap.
If you subtract it from the purchase price and the selling price, the profit would be negligible.
I line up at the cashier's office to buy groceries that are much cheaper than other stores as well.
"I don't know about the management, but does it have anything to do with the low sales value of other stores?
I see. Everyone wants to buy it at a cheap place. But we can't sell it at this price. "
"Hmm...?
Explain the reason by biting Artur to pieces.
Even if the price is low, the reason why this store can do it is because it can be recovered with low profit margins.
Each profit, if at least a lot is sold, will ultimately be a far greater profit.
"Our store is small and we can't sell a lot because the purchase hasn't been going well lately. We don't have many customers in the first place."
After explaining, Artur replied alive that he had already lost interest.
Shall I punch you?
Really? Name of your shop. "
Next up, I pushed my foot to the voice of the man hitting the cashier and put the product on the soccer stand.
It's an antique shop Juno
