After being introduced to Mr. Franz and Mr. Oscar, a month later.

A new shop opened in Wang Du.

It is a shop run by the Chamber of Commerce chaired by Mr. Franz.

The location of the shop is on the street lined up with shops for nobility.

Sometimes the customers of cosmetics to be sold are all aristocrats, and they became this place.

However, it is also close to the streets lined with shops for ordinary people.

Let's just say that in the future, not only the aristocrats, but also the wealthy common people are expected to be customers.

That seems to have met Mr. Franz's expectations.

Not only are the shops visited by nobles, but also by people who seem to be the ladies of some merchant.

And in addition to the young lady, there were people with her, so the store was very crowded.

I wonder if it's unusual for a store to be so busy in the corner with upscale shops.

I was looking at the store that had just opened, a little further away, and I thought so.

"Pleasant."

"Right. Looks like Sei's cosmetics were more popular than I expected."

"Only noblemen should have bought it at the original store."

"They were making amazing money over there, too, so hey. Looks like he was famous among the traders in Wang Du. It seems to be a rumor amongst the merchant ladies."

"Was the original store only for sale to aristocrats?

"Sounds like. I can't keep up with making it or something. No, Franz was grateful that Sai's suggestion allowed us to expand our purchasing base."

It's Mr. Oscar who talks in shattered shape.

This past month, because of so much to talk about in preparation for opening, I somehow started crushing and dealing with it so far.

It felt more awe-inspiring at first, so I guess I can handle it depending on the TPO.

It's easier than being awed, so I don't blame it, I keep it that way.

But I'm the only one who thinks so, and anyone who pinches me and opposes me next door seems concerned about Mr. Oscar's attitude.

Unusual, he throws a faceless, sharp gaze at Mr. Oscar.

He's the captain who followed me as an escort to the Wang capital.

"What's a suggestion?

"He suggested that we divide the types of cosmetics by the height of their effect."

The captain of the regiment, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth, wondering what Mr. Oscar's story was about.

I don't know if you noticed the captain's gaze or if he wasn't there, but Mr. Oscar explains it in a tone for nobility.

What I suggested to Mr Franz was to offer cosmetics at a lower price.

It's a little pricey because the stuff I've been offering was made by people with pharmaceutical skills.

However, sometimes cosmetics themselves are recipes that were common in the original world, and can be made by people who don't have pharmaceutical skills.

In that case, it would be less effective than anything made by a person with pharmaceutical skills.

So I suggested, what about offering it at a reduced price?

The results are as you can see.

The store also explains that it will be less effective than what you have been offering, but still many people seem to want it.

"Doesn't the store seem to have a problem?

"I don't think so. A lot of new hires are good, so I think they'll be fine."

"Then good."

"Will Sai stop by the store another time?

"Yep. It's a crowded day."

"Rikai. So, you're going straight home after this?

"I'm planning on doing that."

"It's a corner, and why don't you stop somewhere and go home? It's a store I recently built, but it has a popular cafe."

"Really?

"Yes, it's a café for aristocrats, but they can drink unusual tea from foreign countries, and it's popular among new-favorite aristocrats."

I also got a peek at the store, so I thought I'd go back to the royal palace, but I got a little interested when I heard about the store.

Foreign tea, I'm a little concerned.

But when it comes to going to the cafe, the captain, who is my escort, has to come with me.

I'm taking advantage of the holidays, but the captain isn't.

Can I let you go out with me even though I'm at work?

It won't work.

Just thinking about it made me feel kind of sorry for myself.

Even if that's not the case, I feel like I've got more extra work to do because I want to see how the store is doing today.

There's a huge desire to stop by the cafe, but I knew you couldn't bother anyone else.

I was a little worried and was about to say I was going home without stopping by, and the captain overtook me.

"Where is that cafe?

"Where is it..."

Huh? Why?

I haven't said anything yet, have I?

Was the captain interested?

When I saw the captain listening to Mr. Oscar's explanation, I gazed at the captain who noticed this gaze.

"You care, don't you?

"What?... Yes"

"Then let's drop by for a little while"

Is that okay?

If they say that with a smile that seeps sweetness, feelings lean heavily towards those who want to go to the cafe.

Were you spotted troubled, or were you in an easy to understand facial expression?

When I broke up with Mr. Oscar and asked the captain why I figured it out on the way to the cafe, he replied because his eyes were shining.

Apparently, when he heard about the cafe, he was just as brilliant in his eyes as when he talked about medicinal herbs and potions.

When the answer was somewhat embarrassing and I dropped my gaze at my feet, I was laughed at.

You couldn't help but stare at the captain who killed his voice and shook his shoulder with half an eye.

"Sounds like it's here."

"Wow!"

After breaking up with Mr. Oscar and being rocked by a carriage for a few minutes, he arrived at the café of his choice.

The walls facing the café's roads have large glass windows and you can see what's inside even from the outside.

It wasn't crowded because it was a shop for nobles, but it seems to have quite a few customers in it.

Escorted by the captain, he dived into the entrance to the store and the employee greeted him with a smile.

It goes straight through the back of the store.

Inside the shop, the wall on the right hand side depicted a side, a landscape, with several mirrors embedded in the wall on the left hand side.

Thanks to the mirror, the inside of the store looks wider than it actually is.

Is it because it's a shop for nobles after all, or is it investing in the interior as well?

With that in mind, I got to the seat I was guided to.

Without even looking at the menu, the employee smiled and nodded when he told her he wanted a drink he had picked up from a foreign country, just that he had learned everything.

After the employee walked away, she realized she should have asked for something to pick from.

I couldn't help but notice the new tea.

"This is the coffee we recommend"

Coffee!?

You just said coffee, didn't you?

I stare at the seriously offered cup, surprised by the name that popped out of the employee's mouth.

From the black water swinging in the cup, I thought maybe, but I can't believe it was what I expected.

With the mysterious specifications when summoned, the words in this world may be replaced by the words in the original world, but the words after the substitution have a profound impact on my impression.

Since I came to this world, I guess Mr. Oscar's words have also been replaced as tea because all I mouth was water or tea.

Or maybe Mr. Oscar thought of coffee as a kind of tea and said it was tea.

But I didn't know it was coffee...

"What's up?

"No, surprised it was a beverage I know..."

"Of my country?

"Yes."

The captain sounded worried because he was staring at the cup without a hand.

Explain why, and you'll see it with an increasingly caring look.

When I smiled back that I didn't need to worry, the captain also loosened his expression.

It's been a while since I've had coffee.

I had to drink it while it was warm.

Lifting the cup and transporting it to the mouth, the nostalgic scent tickles the nasal cavity.

Unexpectedly makes me laugh deeply.

You drank in Japan every day, didn't you?

"It tastes darker than tea."

"Right. It looks delicious even with milk."

The coffee served has a stronger flavour than what I was used to.

Tilt the cup, I could see the coffee powder precipitating at the bottom, so maybe it's close to Turkish coffee.

"Hmm? Didn't Sei ever drink?

"I've drunk it before, because it tasted different from what I was drinking in Japan. Probably brewed differently."

"How to brew it?

"Yes, because the coffee also changes the flavor quite a bit due to the way it is brewed"

I hear the captain questioned the word "looks delicious" butt.

There was a lot of canned coffee and paper drip brewed to drink in Japan.

There were many other brewing methods including Nerdrip, Siphon and French Press, but I've rarely had coffee brewed in these ways.

Not to mention, I never had a Turkish coffee.

"Were you drinking a lot in Nihon?

"You drank every day. Because drinking coffee makes me drowsy."

According to one theory, there were also stories about drinking coffee and losing my sleepiness because of my mind.

However, you used to drink a lot after lunch in your habits somehow.

Drinking more than two drinks makes me sick, so I couldn't keep drinking all the time though.

Still, I couldn't stop a cup after breakfast and lunch.

"Really?"

"Sometimes you drown yourself."

"Yourself?

"Yep. If I had the tools, I could brew them here..."

Speaking of tools that might be used to make coffee here, is it a beaker or flask in the lab?

But I can't think of a way to make coffee using a beaker or something.

If it's Nerdrip, should I have cloth and wire?

"Did you come up with something?

"Yes, I think I'll have the tools to make coffee."

"Right."

If tools are available, there is one thing to do.

I don't have to say anything, it seems I anticipate what I will do, and the captain's eyes sparkled in anticipation.

I know.

Of course, if I can make coffee safely, I'll behave myself to the captain.

Can you buy coffee beans at this store?

It doesn't start without beans as well as tools.

I asked the clerk that the beans were for sale.

Like me, they want to try and brew it themselves.

Then I bought a sachet and went back to the royal palace.

I was just picking it up from a foreign country and it was a pretty good price.
