Lazy Dungeon Master

Mount Zia is on the Pavela side, the village of Drag.

Dyne, a merchant who bore the finances of the village of Gorene, was visiting the residence of the village chief of the village of Drag.

Relative in a simple reception room that is not yet decorative is the village chief of Drag, Sid Pavela. Even though he is still a young child, the prodigal and famous Himself (Mizuka) were challenged to negotiate this business negotiation - the magic prop that leaves the hot spring, its rental fee.

"You've come a lot today. It's Sid Pavela, the village chief."

"Ha. Wye is a merchant in the village of Gorene, Dyne. See you later."

"Lord Dyne. Let me start by thanking you for visiting me."

"No, no, don't worry about it, Master Sid. Anyway, Wye is a civilian, Lord Sid is a nobleman. It's only natural to leave."

And although he is out lousy with the pavela, this is Dyne's jab. The side to be visited is naturally the upper position, and it is the Dyne side in the lower position that makes the concession and gives way to the profit.

If it was meant to be, Sid was the one who wanted to go to the village of Gorene and negotiate at the village chief's residence. I wanted to show my position as the one making the opposite of the status quo, but I received a letter from Kama saying, "Don't work from the deputy village chief, so I'll send a merchant over there".

There's no way Sid's going out to the store more than he told me to send a merchant.

It is very normal and impossible to refuse a visit by a civilian merchant to Sid, a nobleman, and vice versa is out of the question because Sid overturns his plans and pushes him to the store instead of annoying him.

One letter from Kama, Sid, that fixed the first stance. How we can recover from this and pay more - how we can return the accumulated gratitude in the form of gold - is a livery negotiation. Sid orders the facial expressions he has worked out as a nobleman and smiles.

"Yeah. But we're negotiating a price today. I want to discuss fair prices only on a reciprocal basis"

"Yeah, sure. Wye and the others are in business."

"Well, I'll pay for the visit first."

Saying so, Sid offers a bag that smells like a coin rubbing. but Dyne glanced at this (the best) and burst back with a grin on his face without even looking at the contents.

"Ha ha, Master Sid. Is that a bad idea?

"... still?"

Sid pounded his tongue in his heart "chip".

While it's good to be in your ankles, this contents clearly contain excessive amounts of money. I mean, it was a bribe.

How Sid reacted to the bribe, he tried to put on Dyne's vessel, which he would have a long relationship with in the future in connection with Gorene Village.

First, it is a trinket if it is to be received honestly.

In this case, Sid's bargaining power would allow him to round anything up. This is the easiest.

Next, such as a righteous merchant if you push back that you can't accept bribes as an agent.

An honest and fair deal would be expected. This is good too.

Then, if it includes and receives it, it is hand-worked.

It could be convenient to ignore the purpose of the bribe and say, "I have accepted the bribe, so I have to make a concession." But still, it's a bribery-worthy loss. Or it would be a bargaining power battle.

But finally, the most troublesome thing in the supposed reaction. That's what I don't accept after I've figured it out. And with advice (restraint).

This means that, in a way, we are not even willing to negotiate. I undoubtedly understand that it is an overwhelming top position, and I refuse to bribe that can also be a factor in breaking my position on it.

He says that even without such a bribe (a small thing), he can afford to make a profit.

And that was a reaction that made me feel a strong connection to Kama, the village chief of Gorene.

"Sorry, let me give it a try. Make sure you didn't see this."

"No, never mind. Because I know exactly what it is. I asked Dada to work out for the village chief."

You can afford to ask all questions about the fact that you gave a bribe, which is a small flaw.

Sid could only tell that the merchant vessel named Dyne was considerably larger than expected.

That's right, let's call him a merchant trusted by the cake. I would shrug my legs if I didn't respond to Kama herself or anything more than that...... no, my feet could break. Sid took a breath.

"I wonder if Lord Dyne is a Pavela merchant because of his admiration."

"Yes, but now think of it as a merchant from the village of Gorene."

"Ha, I wonder if I can ask you softly for a favor from Pavela"

"Yes, let's be the birthplace of Wye and cheap (...). Don't tell Mayor Kama."

"... haha"

You know what I'm saying, Sid, and I can't hide my dry laugh.

And negotiations began.

"First of all, you should stop paying like how much a month is fixed than you don't know the performance of the real thing"

"Well, I heard from the Mayor of Kama that" it should be enough water and temperature to make a bath, "but the braces above and below are dangerous and the fixed rates are dangerous."

"If so, I'm going to put together a story based on the money generated by the magic props."

"There is no difference. That's what I thought."

The first agreement was reached, and the two laughed. First we present the first line to each other.

"I intend to pay water royalties, bathing fees such as baths, etc., without any shortage considering (...)"

"... 80% (...). This is the line of concession."

"Hmm... 80% of the sales, would be good"

Sid offering his hand that it was decided early. If Dyne shakes this back, the negotiations are over, but naturally Dyne doesn't shake that hand.

"No, no, I'm kidding. It's tight, stay teasing me. You can't have that many. Wye is naturally 80% of net income."

(Associate Audio: What am I mistaken for? That's set at 80% of the net profit!

"Oh, my God. So you have little money?

(Associate audio: Damn, I still can't.... but that's clearly past concessions!

In Sid's "sales" and Dyne's "net profit," even the same 80% is about the same difference between heaven and earth.

Let's be brief.

For example, if there were 500 yen per lunch box, "sales" would simply increase to +500 yen if one was sold, whereas "net income" would be the value from here minus various expenses such as costs, labor costs, taxes, etc.

When the profit margin of this lunch is 25% (profit of 125 yen per sale) and the sold lunch is to be discarded (loss of 375 yen for discarding one), even if the "net profit" is less than 25% of the "sales", 75 of the 100 lunch boxes are finally sold and the "net profit" 0 yen (tons) is only a liability (negative) for that amount if it is not sold more than that.

What Dyne asked for here was 80% of its' net profit '. A value that could even be negative in terms of expenses, etc.

Exactly. Sid can't pull this either, so I can pull my hand in. If we keep going through this, we'll be more and more thankful.

Lord Dyne, if you're a merchant, I think you should seek more money.

(Associate voice: That line is just unacceptable)

"That would be a celebration of the village of Drag and if you would accept it. And, well, I also said the demon props and the Kama Village Chief, who was dead. I don't know if it's going to work properly, and I've evaluated the amount of risk you're willing to take."

(Associate Audio: Newcomers after you listen to what people say. Besides, I'm not going to use it here anyway, it's a magic trick that Mayor Kama had in his possession. Is it enough to get a little money? You know what I mean?

"Hmm. But still, that's a story that wouldn't be made without demonic props in the first place. Shouldn't you be taking everything you've made?

(Associate voice: Wait! Then how about at least all the black ones?

All profits originally generated by demonic props should only be of 100% kama. Because without magic props, it doesn't happen. So this was Sid's idea of a real, critical negotiating line...

Phew, and a sigh of dyne.

"This is a deal for friendship? It's in the best shape to get just the right interest from each other to make it a long relationship. Rather, it's about as good as 60% at your friend's price. Mayor Kama is also a good friend, but this is within his discretion to let him study."

(Associate audio: Huh. You know what I mean? "Friendship" or "friendship". That's such a good deal. Sweet sweet. Oh, even 60% of everything. Yeah, right?

"If it's for friendship, you get 60% too much of this one.... is 80% reasonable if you think about it"

(Associate Audio: Okay! Drink terms! 80% fine)

"Maido. Really, is it determined by 80% of net income? Hey, I'm glad you made up your mind. Wow."

(Associate voice: Oh, I want to bear 80% when I'm in deficit. Yikes? Do-do?)

"Oh, no. Right, I'm Lord Pavela's son, so I'm given some privilege. I won't put out debts or anything, and even if I do, I'm not going to be so shameless as to push that against Lord Kama. I'd like to make it a contract that takes into account."

(Associate Audio: Please! Please! At least make it 80% only when it's black! In the first place, it's my business, Lord Pavela's son's business, and it can't be in the red. So this is about as good as it gets, right? Please, please! Think you're gonna help me!

Dyne nodded honestly at Sid's proposal.

"Really, the contract is about making eight cracks of money. Yeah?

(Associate audio: Hmm, shan't. Well, then, yes. Then it's up to you this time)

"... and would you also need a security deposit in exchange for demon props?

(Associate Audio: Uh, would you also accept some pooled money? Huh?)

"I'm told I don't need that. Mayor Kama seems to really like Sid."

(Associate Audio: Foreigner Terrible)

Thus the discussion of rental fees associated with the magic prop loan came together, and Sid and Dyne exchanged a hard handshake.
