(Walson)
I'm lying on the chair, looking like a zombie, and I'm starting to feel a little regretful about letting lon go to school now.
Rember that I said that I've rent a store near the Academy? Today is its the first day of its opening. It's right next to the school area, in other words, it's at the edge of the residential area.
Alright, when back to the Earth, what do people like to sell near schools?
-The answer is, FOOD!
During break ti, the students can either eat in the cafeteria or hang out around the Academy.
Of course, stores can't just 'open' and expect the business to survive, strategizing is required. The food at the Academy is actually not bad, so if you want to have a restaurant there, you'll want to sell food that can lure students away from the cafeteria.
There are thousands of students in the Academy, and the maximum capacity of the cafeteria only holds up to 10% of the students for one lunchti. So nearby restaurants are important, but that also ans I'll have to compete with others.
That's why I'm selling my marinated at/bacon, made with all kinds of rare spices! By the way, in this world, at and spices are still counted as luxuries, so these will definitely sell. Ehehehehe.
The sll from the roasted at had always been the favorite thing during altis amongst our group.
But, I raised the price a little because the Academy is full of rich students. When you run a store, it's important to decide what kind of custor you want to hold on to. But looking at the regular prices of at and spices, my price is really too cheap in comparison.
As a result, my restaurant was full of people right after I started cooking.
My level is 33, even though I don't have as much endurance as lon, but it is enough as a Commoner. Plus, it's been really easy to produce food by using my Minecraft skill… But now my muscles are SORE! The custors simply were that nurous.
...Alright, a set of roasted at cuts is one silver and 50 copper. Just in one day, I got 10 gold, deducting the costs (which is basically nothing), I have gained 10 gold total.
Sowhere around 600 roasted at cuts were sold. But that's too tiring. Maybe I should set a limit, like 200 sets per day.
I can already afford lon's tuition fee within only two days of work. I think I have created a money-making monster... Running a restaurant seems pretty fitting for right now. But without lon, I can't do it just by myself or I'll work myself to death.
Today, after I closed the restaurant, I went to [Mart Chamber of Comrce] again. And the chairman was startled by my tired appearance.
I like to finish all the work as soon as it begins, so my schedule is very full these days… It's kinda rude to do business with others in this regard, but I'm only here to sign a contract.
I'll sell them a bottle of MPOH Beta, plus 10 bottles of the diluted version per month for a year. Maybe I'll think about contract renewal later because I still don't want to sell that many potions.
I didn't tell them those 10 potions were diluted, of course, just stated that they were of lower quality. Letting them think that it's not easy to produce potions that can heal mutilations. Looks like they've analyzed those two bottles I gave to Maron, that's why they're so interested.
With this contract, I can get 500 gold per month… I can't carry this much money on , so I need to make a bank account.
Banks are really cool in this world. They use so sort of magic to confirm your identity when withdrawing money. There is no chance for those fake identity scams, so your money is truly safe.
It'll be better if there are bills/paper money. But what a pity, this world is not that modern.
After all these things, I got back to the restaurant. In the dark of the night, there are only lamps to guide back. By the way, I live in a restaurant. On the second floor and above.
Only the first floor is being used for a restaurant. We live on the second and third floor.
There are rooms for , lon, and Grace... Grace, might co here often... maybe? I don't want to think about the answer. Maybe I'm hoping for sothing, but that's ridiculous.
I made the bathroom a little bigger, and there's a redstone heating system, so it's fine to just bathe in here without going to the public baths.
Redstone powering systems, training room, potion brewery, and plant cultivation room… I spent a whole day upgrading this house to the level as "high-tech" as the secret base used to be.
And I have a space for Rifle near the door, so he can beco a Watchdog(Watchwolf?) when the restaurant is open. This is why I gave the na "Dog House" to the restaurant.
In short, lon had left for two days now. I upgraded the house on the first day and started working on the second day. I didn't have ti to have a break at all.
Even now, at night, I'm still busy.
Because... Grace has got a new friend. She brought her to the [Dog House], asked to make her a al, and repair a weapon.
In the night, at the [Dog House], indoors.
"This is our signature al, enjoy." I served her a fried hamburger steak, "How's the Brandy? Is it to your satisfaction?"
"It's really good, thanks for having , Walson." She is an elven girl with Curly Blond hair.
She has clear-cut facial features. Elegant, but with signs of temperant and bearing of nobility. You can also see so... naughty feelings from her eyes, the look of a prank scher.
Oh, by the way, her breasts are approximately D Cup, lon's lons have been surpassed.
Her na is Aurevia.
Well, as a gentleman, when a beautiful girl is in front of , I shall serve her with great wine... And I feel oh-so-regretful now. After a few glasses of wine, I found out this woman is really good with alcohol.
When I got back here, Grace had already entered the closed DogHouse.
Looks like they're busy with all sorts of procedures in the school, so Grace and Aurevia didn't have dinner, but every restaurant is closed, so Grace brought her to .
How did she know that I'm running a restaurant….? Oh, maybe she heard the rumors. Because the DogHouse had already gotten very popular on its first day opening.
"...Walson, this is my friend, Aure. Feed us, and repair her weapon, now." I was lying on the armchair tiredly when Grace just ca in and ordered straight up.
I'm not really happy about Grace talking to with this attitude, but she looks to be in a very bad mood, so I did what she said. It's not really a big deal, anyway.
I served them the al and with wine, of course, wine is for Aurevia specifically. Grace doesn't like wine.
When I started to drink wine with Aurevia, she just sat there watching us drinking quietly….Hmm, maybe our relationship hasn't gone that bad?
Even though I wanted to talk to her, to fix our problems, I still didn't do it, because there is another person - an unfamiliar person - here.
- Okay, the topic has strayed too far, now back on this elven girl.
She looks polite like a lady. But has a really straightforward personality and unquenchable desire for alcohol. I'm getting drunk just by a few glasses, so I surrendered and let her drink by herself.
"There's a saying that goes 'You make friends through wine,' so do we count as friends now?" After a WHOLE BARREL of Brandy - Oh boy can she drink, she still looks fine, and I feel her taunting smile, mocking at my low drinking capacity.
For your information, these Brandy are my test brews - moonshines, basically. The actual amount of alcohol is much higher than regular Brandy!
This girl is bad bad. A bad girl, bad girl. Alright, the na Aurevira is too troubleso, I'll call her "Barrella".
"Yes, we're friends, Barella. You're a Barrel of a girl."
"You're so rude! What kind of person talks to a lady like this? This na makes feel like I'm fat."
"What kind of 'lady' drinks a whole barrel of Brandy?!"
Maybe she was right, you beco friends after drinking with them. We even co into a relationship that we can quarrel with each other, she acts just like a man.
I didn't say it out loud, but I only pretended to despise her. And our strange little eting of three had finally co to an end. It's midnight already.
"Take it, this is your bow," Before they left, I returned the weapon that Grace wanted to repair back to Barrella.
This is a bow with dium-level quality, and it was broken very badly. When you say a bow is "broken," it usually ans that the bowstring is broken. But this bow had literally beco two broken sticks.
I thought every elf should have his/her own "Elven Weapon." Like the [Elvenized] staff Mirabella has. This bow clearly doesn't look like an Elven weapon… Whatever, it's not my business.
I used so better ingredients to repair the weapon. Even though it's still not comparable to my [Apollo], the bow is still better than what it was before.
"W-when did you fix that?! Within this short amount of ti? I thought it should take a few days..." Barrella looked shocked, she stared at her better-than-new bow.
"Trade secret," I said.
With my Minecraft abilities, I can repair anything in just a few seconds.
"Good night, Grace," I said, before Grace left with Barrella.
"...Good night, Walson," Grace hesitated, and replied in kind.
It will be great if that can fix our relationship a little. Alright, ti to prepare things for tomorrow's opening.
After that, Barrella had co to the DogHouse very often. Sotis she even ca without Grace and smooched off for so als, but it's another story.
After they left, the whole building had gone very quiet, different than in the morning.
My neck and shoulders are so sore after these days of working, if there's a place that can let relax… Oh! I rember that the people of [Mart Chamber of Comrce] have invited to go to the red light district with them, to celebrate the success of making the contract.
You guys know what red light districts do, right? No? Well... it's a place where you can get massages from pretty girls.
...But I'm not fifteen yet, so I probably can't get other services rather than actual real massages.
…
…
…
Later on, I have no idea how Grace found out, but she beat up for going to the red light district.
