Once Izuku has dressed up decently, I told him that I am interested in buying the huge block of unused land near the entrance of the entertainnt district. I also asked him if he knew people who can clear out the land quickly. I saw the astonishnt in his eyes. Since he ca from a family that did not have much money, hearing soone buying a plot of land in cash for 7 gold without batting an eyelid is a very rare occurence.
He imdiately replied that we just have to complete the paper work, make the paynt and transfer the property ownership title. He then said that he knows a group of skilled people that can do the job but he asked if I was fine with hiring people from the slums. I had no qualms about it and told him to prepare the employnt contract and I will give him a finder's fee of 20 coppers for each person he can employ for the job. He thankfully bowed his head for the trust I have given him. I also told him to inform about any good land that cos up for sale. I gave him an earring that serves as a storage device and also a communicator. With this, he can talk to anyti he has a lead and I can also send him the paynts for the workers. This is one of the inventions I made during my free ti that I have yet to get a patent for. Once we have settled the paynt and all the paperwork for my plot of land, I talked to him about signing a mana contract with . This is one of the things I experinted on during my ti alone. I don't believe in normal paper contracts or the usual human mana contracts since they can be burned, destroyed or if one finds a higher ranked mage, the penalties of breaching the contract can be removed. The next option I can think of was to use a mystique mana contract instead since it is unique in this realm.
I discussed with Izuku that we will have a mana contract which will outline what is expected from the both of us in this agreent. It would also list down benefits or inclusions such as my promise to give his family a better place to live in once my plot of land has been developed as well as the amount and frequency of his salary. We will both get a copy of the signed contract for safekeeping and I will also leave a sliver of my mana in his body to seal the deal. He read through the terms and we both signed the contract. Once he signed, I then proceeded with sealing the deal. Oh, I forgot to tell him that the deal will be literally "sealed with a kiss". I leaned on to him and kissed his lips. I slip my tongue to open his lips a bit to guide my mana into his body. I saw his eyes widened but maybe due to shock, he just let do what I needed to do. Everything happened quickly in a span of 10 seconds. I smiled at him and said the contract has been sealed.
Once the deal is sealed, I gave him a reminder on the contracts for the demolition workers as well as my expectations that they will be able to clear up the space and place a temporary fence around my plot of land within the next week. I assured him that I will adhere or even set a higher hiring price for the workers. I also reminded him that there will be no bias on who can apply for the job as long as they can do their part. Gender, age or even the amount of mana doesn't matter. Surprisingly, hard labor in this world pays only 10 coppers per hour which is barely enough to complete the three full als per day so I decided to set my pay rate at 15 coppers per hour. They will wear bracelets to asure productivity anyways so I don't mind setting my pay higher than normal. People will still be paid what is due to them. With this, they can at least provide a more decent life for their families.

Izuku's POV
She's so pretty and her voice sounds really kind. I think I got lucky with my very first custor here in the real estate office. She seems to be really interested to buy land and she even gave a chance to explain things to her at my own pace.
Sadly, my superiors are right that each woman is just the sa since she suddenly requested to speak in a more private setting. I guided her to one of the private rooms. She was just asking so random questions then out of the blue, she asked if I was willing to do anything like removing all of my clothes but the question is, "Do I even have a choice?" I have a family to feed and a father to buy dicine for. It did not even take 5 seconds for my body to follow her request.
I stood up and started removing my clothes one by one. I just looked forward to numb my feelings since it does not help put food on the table. I saw her stand up from her seat and approach . I guess she isn't contented with just watching and she wants to touch too. I stiffened a bit but again, what is the use of saying no. As long as she doesn't want my virginity, I can do whatever and just wash all the filth I'm feeling later. She suddenly held my hands which surprised . Did she just tell to stop? Was it just my misunderstanding? She is asking to put my clothes back on. What was happening? I looked into her eyes and my breath hitched and I felt my soul being sucked out of . I was only able to get my breathing back to normal when she turned her back at and returned to her seat. I imdiately put my clothes back on.
Once everything has settled back in place, we continued discussing the purchase of the land. We also talked about a mana contract that she is offering to hire for so side tasks with good pay. The best part of working for her is that she's willing to give my family a better place to live in. After reading through all the details, we signed the contract. I then saw her leaning into and then our lips t. After a few seconds, her tongue slipped between my lips and a warm and comforting flow of energy entered my body. Wait! No! Did I just lose my first kiss to a stranger?
As quickly as she leaned in, the kiss was gone. Did I just wish in my head that the kiss was longer? No. She explained it was to seal the deal. She gave my next tasks and I took note of it. She then quickly left. Her sweet scent on my lips is still lingering. I wonder when she will visit again.

After I have completed all that I needed to do at the real estate office, I dropped by at my old man's alchemy shop. Once I dropped in, he greeted energetically and couldn't stop singing praises for the inventory and storage system I have installed. He also said that the number of custors have also increased and so are even asking how the paynt terminal near the counter works or which bank is providing the services. Ooh. Interesting. This has given another business idea and a few possible patents. Once done with the greeting, I asked him for directions to the office that manages the registration of businesses. He pondered for a bit then said that there should be one a block away from the royal palace. I thanked him and asked if his shop is registered and if he is willing to register his shop under my company and simply tag it as a partnership. He then said that he is open with it and will also discuss it with his son. I bid him good bye after I got his response. I told him I'll bring him to the business office once it is ti to finalize the paperwork.
Since it is still almost two hours before lunch ti, I hurriedly went to the business-registration office fearing that their workers will take their lunch and no one will be willing to assist . When I arrived at another lavishly designed building with a solid and expensive-looking door, I knew I was in the right place. I knocked on the door three tis and entered afterwards. It was such a hassle that they do not have door bells here. Door bells? Hmm. Let's put that on my growing list of things to do.
As I walked inside, I saw a receptionist and several doors leading to private rooms. I guess they value their clients' security and privacy since they can potentially deal with big ti rchants and business owners any day who may discuss things that can't be leaked to other parties. I approached the receptionist and requested to get assigned to a business consultant. She smiled at but she could not hide the quick gauging glance she did on . She responded in a polite voice that she will call on one. When she ca back, she brought a middle-aged gentleman. He must be around his 20s based on his looks. He seems strict, serious and obviously quite tired.
