The Economics of Prophecy

One story, culture gap.

I learned that illusion, where the taste transmitted from above my tongue barely reaches further behind my brain. I see, there is something called memories engraved in the soul.

I liked Japanese sweets in my previous life.

I liked white and soft cakes wrapped in a plethora of corrugated fillings, array, which is Ise's famous confectionery, etc., as much as I could eat. As much as I'm sure he would have been offered for my funeral.

The gentle white face wrapped in soft fattening fabric loosened just by looking at it. I'm in the middle of something that fits the grain best. I was somewhat of a filler, but the theory was that I was limited to granules in the middle.

More than ten years after reincarnation. I thought I'd forgotten my thirst for Japanese sweets. But this filling brought me back completely.

"It's Meer. How can this Ricardo come back?

"I'm sorry, Grand Duke. I'm so choro too...... the reaction is a bit. I can't even pretend to be a warrior."

"Okay. Okay, let me explain it to them instead. They're not co-owners either."

"... Yes, sir."

I feel somewhat rude being said there in the back, but I don't care.

"Hey, stay away from Natalie. Why would Natalie eat the same thing?"

It was the tail of gold that danced in front of me that brought me back to reality.

"Oh, I'm sorry"

"What, ah, ah! No, I just wanted to prove that I wouldn't put anything crazy in my jam."

I was pulled away by my daughter, who was attached to my filling daughter.

"Ricardo."

"Ha, ha, uh, that, because it was so good"

Alfina with a worried face peeked into me. Behind Alfina's eyes, I felt something that didn't look like her. I raised my hands like a salaried man suspected of being a moron.

"Is this such an excellent sweetness?"

said Plura with his neck clenched. I guess I was interested because I use sugar.

"Right. It looks like it, but it's as Vinder would say it is."

"Right" "... I can't believe you jam beans, but you're a vinder..."

Central Garden members gathered around me.

"Yes, try it. Uh, Mr. Natalie. I'll pay for it, so why don't you feed them all?"

I said. It doesn't look good, but if you eat it, you know what it's worth. Something must jump in the plura.

When I put the gold out of my purse, Natalie shook her head with a slight look.

"One, four copper coins."

About four hundred yen each. It's not an easy price for ordinary people to eat. If it was Japan, it would be the price of fine Japanese confectionery. However, given that sugar is used, is the cost rate rather strict?

I switched to silver coins while Natalie removed the newly filled bread from the basket.

"Come on, eat it"

I waited for the Central Garden members to react. When Alfina mouthed first, the pulla continued. Seeing that, the other members opened their mouths. And......

………… ………… ………… ………… …………

The five of them were all necked and face-lifted. That's not the reaction I was hoping for.

"I have a touch of teeth. It's kinda disgusting how this bean skin sticks in your mouth."

"Hmm. I thought how much because Vinder admires it, but fruit jams taste better"

"Right. I'm French...... I prefer honey...... Well, I'm sorry."

Alfina also said sorry.

"Let me be frank with you as someone who deals with confectionery. Not sweet enough. It's like a bean habit that ruins the sugar because of it. He's also upset with the foundation."

"... Ah, the Plura Chamber of Commerce"

Natalie stifled her face when she saw the mark of the Plura Chamber of Commerce in Wang Du.

"No, that gentle sweetness is good."

Nobody answers my objections, either. Is that it?

"... I may not hate it that much. But I figured you should eat beans normally."

Bermini, the daughter of a dear vegetable shop, was also a subtle reaction.

"I knew it was a trap. Well, that might be a little hard to grasp at first. Even though it tastes different from fruit if you get used to it. It tastes like nothing else."

I remember what Vinaldia said. I also preferred ice cream and cakes and western sweets when I was a kid. In the first place, this world is western, as represented by bread. Is there also a culture gap?

"... thank you for eating"

While I curse that rice doesn't exist, Natalie tries to leave with a dark face.

"No, it's too early to give up"

I desperately stopped her. Besides me, Natalie and these two Vinardias understand how good the filling is. It should be possible.

"Ho, is that true?

"Oh, oh, I can definitely taste better. It's justice to sweeten the fillings, the beans."

"Let, justice? That's right. That's what I've been making too."

"I'll help you, so..."

"I disagree. I don't know how I'd get caught if I relied on one of these."

Vinaldia rushed between me and Natalie. Natalie compared me to her friend's face.

"Thanks Vina. But I want to believe this guy's face when he ate my jam. Here..."

Natalie has an index finger, pointing next to her own lips.

"The jam stays on."

"Ah, wow. Ha ha."

I plucked my lips in a hurry. And then I turned to Natalie again.

"Mm-hmm. Uh, I'm Ricardo Vinder. Nice to meet you."

We're starting a new project. Try to have a successful filling venture as an angel investor. Spread the flavour of Japanese into the kingdom.

"Vinder's judgment has to be properly explained to Meer."

Lilka said. Belmini nodded cocklessly beside it.

"Oh, oh. That would be part of the business."

"Uh, Ricardo. You're only talking about business with this jam."

Alfina pulled my sleeve.

"Oh, yes, I do..."

".................. ok. I'll work with you as a shareholder."

Grab my sleeve, Alfina said.

"Look, this guy knew it..."

Vinaldia's eyes increased sharpness. I feel like I have a different sense of vigilance in my eyes.

"... you'll have more victims again"

Belmini said softly. Victim? What are you talking about?

Yes, the only Belmini that didn't deny the possibility of filling is promising. I need to ask for the right role.
