She had tiny lights as well
“Very well. I have received your order then.”
“Yes, thank you.”
After getting advice from the servants, I finally ordered what I needed from Ms. Isabelle.
As I already had decided on most things, it was mainly just asking what their thoughts were after actually seeing the price.
In fact, as I had to buy tools for the kitchen, I had wanted Ms. Helena or one of the other cooks to accompany , but they were busy today.
And so in the end, it was decided that I would get what I could, and if Ms. Helena needed sothing else later, it could be ordered.
Still, I had no idea that the stoves they used were powered by magic.
So were their food storages. They even had sothing like a blender that moved through magic.
They used magic instead of electricity, but it seed like when you made things for convenience, you ended up with similar things… Though, it was possible that soone from another world ca up with it too.
“Still, you have quite a lot today. But then again, it is no surprise, as it will be a house for nobles to live in.”
“Indeed. Personally, I wouldn’t have minded buying cheaper things… But there were matters to consider.”
Ms. Isabelle sighed while looking at the order list.
Claire and Sebastian had insisted that many of the things I buy be the expensive pens.
Especially when it ca to furning spaces that guests would be in. The main entrance, hallways and guest rooms.
To be honest, there were a lot of things that I didn’t understand. But as Claire would live there too, I did want it to look nice.
“Ah, I almost forgot. I gathered the tiny lights that you asked for last ti.”
“Already? That was fast.”
“While so people like them, they are mostly considered to be failures. So there is plenty of stock in other places. It was not hard to gather them.”
Ms. Isabelle said as she picked out a box from behind the counter.
They were all green, just as I had asked.
“Alright then… Hmm?”
“Here. There are fifty, exactly.”
“Thank you. So that’s 25 coppers. Please count them.”
“Oh? There is too much. And there is a silver in here as well.”
“It’s my way of thanking you for your speed. Also, for the tea as well.”
“You do know how to please people. Fine. I will prepare so delicious tea and food when you co next ti.”
“Thank you.”
As I ant to co here often, I thought that I would add a little extra…kind of like a tip? Besides, she had served us tea and even given a discount.
Regardless, with that business done, we left the store.
“But Mr. Takumi…what are you going to use those lights for?”
“Ah, I haven’t told you yet…”
While we headed to Mr. Halton’s store, Keith asked about the box of lights.
And so I told him that I was thinking about giving them to whoever I hired, as they might enjoy them.
Well, they were cheap, so it probably wouldn’t an much.
“I see. So it is like a reward for hard work?”
“…I wouldn’t say that. Surely no one would be very happy if they received sothing like this as a reward?”
It wasn’t quite the sa thing as preparing sausages for Leo…
