Ascendance of a Bookworm - Chapter 227

When I returned to the temple, I asked Gil to contact Benno. Have the letter delivered to the store in anticipation of a snowy day.

It seems that there is not much work in winter, and Gil returned immediately with Benno’s scribble reply that he wanted to meet in the afternoon.

“Now I’ll be able to talk in the orphanage room from the afternoon”

“I’m smart”

Lutz returning to lunch seems to have returned with a message, and members of the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce came to the bell of 5. Benno, Marc and Lutz.

I entered the hidden room and jumped into Lutz. During the winter, he talked to Benno about selling teaching materials at the castle while supplementing the rutz that he could hardly meet.

“If you sell at the castle! Wait a minute!”

“Eh? I can’t wait so much. I have to sell it early.”

“That’s not true! There aren’t enough clerk in my house to take me to the castle now”

Gilberta Chamber of Commerce, with a focus on lower-class aristocrats and expanding sales to middle-class nobility. Although I was able to catch my mother as a jump with my connection, there are still only a few shop assistants who can move up to the castle, as can be seen from the current situation where only Benno and Marc are able to bring goods.



Some people rushed into courtesy manners to serve an Italian restaurant, but they still seem a bit uneasy about raising them to the castle.

“… Is it a clerk? Do you bring me some gray priests who are well-trained and well-educated with such clothes?” If there is no problem in standing behavior, I think it would be okay if I could calculate it. ”

Transactions with aristocrats are basically made to order after receiving an order. Unless it is a consumable item such as plant paper, the product is not taken and sold.

Recent Linshan is also made to order for senior nobility. After taking some samples based on the types of oil that can be used in the season and the materials that can be used for scrubbing, they receive orders in the desired combination.

I bought the sample from the sample that was brought to me as an example of the combination, but I put out an order form to say that I ordered it to arrange the appearance of a senior aristocrat.

“Will you take what you hand-made in winter and sell it as it is? Rather than take an order?”

Benno has rounded eyes, but I whispered.

“Sell it as it is. We need it right away. For next year, Benno and Marc will be able to deal with aristocrats who want to pay special prices for elaborate things, but soon. For those who say that it is necessary, we will sell the product as it is, so I think it would be no problem to use a gray priest who can calculate “

“… I understand. From me, Marc and Leon go. Then I want you to choose a gray priest who is about two adults. Will I have to dress up?” [19459002 ]

As expected, I can’t take you to the castle in the clothes of a gray priest. If you go to the castle, you will need to wear the right clothes.

“Gill, who is better? I decided to have Franc because of the Holy Grail.”

“I think it’s okay because Fritz served the nobility”

“Let’s ask Fran and Fritz”

Once the number of people to take is decided, the next is to check the price and quantity.

“The picture book is one small gold coin, Carta is five large silver coins, Trump is a black one with three large silver coins, and one that uses colored ink is one small gold coin”

Compared to picture books for millionaires sold in the initial period, the price of plant paper and ink has been reduced, so the cost has been reduced a little.

Since Carta’s paintings cannot be completely drawn by Vilma, they use gully printing. Carta uses a board, so it costs less than paper.

Trumps are even cheaper because they have fewer cards than cartas. However, if you use rare color ink, it is very beautiful but the price jumps. For senior nobility who want to differentiate.

“Let’s prepare 100 quantities for the time being. I think that’s enough for the number of children.”

“Okay. Pack 100 wooden boxes.”

Talking about how to sell. The biggest problem is that the other party is an aristocrat, so it cannot be done in the same way as selling to the commoner.

Talking about how to sell, Marc went home alone saying “I’ll get ready soon”. Benno asks Franc and Fritz for help, measures the size of the clothes and makes notes, and then starts selling education. Gil and Lutz are heading to the workshop to start product confirmation and boxing.

Talking silently, Dermuel sees everyone moving around with a slight eyebrow. I could see that non-floating expression on top of Filine’s expression.

“Dermuel, what about?”

“No, especially”

“If you have noticed something, please let me know. There are things that we may not understand”

In my case, I don’t know anything about common sense, and Benno is a merchant who has a business with a noble but has never stepped into a castle. From the aristocratic eyes, if there are any problems, you must tell them.

“Do you say you’ve noticed … I know that Rosemine’s picture book is great and it’s cheaper than buying other books, but it’s not easy for a lower class noble to buy. I was worried that there might be a child who feels regretful. “

Dermuel said, “I am not a wealthy aristocrat.”

Poor aristocrats among lower aristocrats have less money than the rich people of the common people. I bite myself because I couldn’t come up with such an easy thing. An easy-to-understand and easy-to-learn book is necessary for those who cannot hire good teachers, but here too, the presence or absence of money has a major impact.

Benno glanced at me.

“Even if you are an aristocrat, not everyone will be able to buy it … but it is not possible to reduce the price any more”

“Yeah, I know. This is the one with the price cut.”

Benno doesn’t allow you to reduce profits from things you sell to aristocrats, and considering the future, you can’t sell cheaply from the beginning.

“But it seems better to think a little so that everyone can get the book. Is there any better way? Lutz, what do you think?”

“I can only borrow what I can’t buy”

Book is expensive. It’s so expensive that owning it is a proof of wealth. It’s not easy to buy or even borrow.

The temple library is designed to be entered only by temple officials, and books can only be borrowed by blue priests and blue priests.

In the library of the castle, identification is required, and you cannot borrow a book unless you have a security deposit. The deposit is high because it is a compensation for damage or damage. The principle of free library is impossible.

“If you can’t borrow easily now, how can you make it easier to borrow now?”

“… If I can’t borrow because the deposit is high, can I make it cheaper?”

rent the rental fee cheaply and get a stroke from the parent to get the compensation for any damage or damage. It may be abuse of power, but if you start with the form of renting my book, the adopter of the lord, I think that you will be able to handle the book carefully and make sure that you are compensated when something happens.

“Isn’t the money needed for borrowing somehow if it is exchanged for a new story?”

Refused several stories from Filine and other girls. If you pay for the manuscript fee, it is not enough for the purchase cost, but will it be a rental fee for books and teaching materials?

“I think it’s better to think about the number of characters rather than just one story. The length is completely different depending on the story.”

“Yes, I’m going to do so when I pay the manuscript fee”

Calculating the manuscript fee based on the number of characters and making them part-time jobs for children makes me happy with a new story. Children who are not beautiful enough to copy can be used for studying characters, making money and making money.

“It seems better to think about the manuscript fee a little more. Let’s try a low-cost loan this time”

As a basis for bookstores and private libraries that can be used for a small fee, let’s think about renting teaching materials to lower-class nobility.

And the sales day.

I put a rescuer at the front door of the temple and watched everyone carry their luggage.

100 picture books, playing cards, and cartas are prepared and packed in wooden boxes.

Franc and Fritz are supposed to go together by the merchants of the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce, so Benno is given the same clothes as Marc and Leon. Unlike Fran, who was used to wearing clothes to go to the downtown area, Fritz seems to be unfamiliar with the clothes, and seems somewhat uncomfortable.

“Rose Mine, do you really want to put the Gilberta Shokai on this?”

“Yes, it’s faster and more reliable than going in this snow with a carriage. Will you get stuck in the middle of a carriage?”

The Priest looks up at the Lesser and looks at his eyebrows.

“I understand what you say, but there are no other nobility to carry merchants with you”

“It’s okay. I’m ready to be precedent.”

“There are no aristocrats who want to follow. Only you.”

When the priest told me to sigh, he turned his gaze away from me.

“Fran, Fritz. It’s hard to be swayed by the Lord’s self, but do your best. And Benno, you’ll have a lot of effort, but as long as you’re going out with Rosemine, there are many similar deals. It ’ll come. It ’s the edge you picked up. Give up. ”

“… Yes”

Everyone glanced at me and whispered with a mysterious face.

…… I think it’s a bit terrible to give up.

“Please do not ride”

While urging my cheeks, I opened the doorway of the Lessers and urged me to get in.

franc, who is used to riding, gets in first, and Benno gets in a face that looks eerie. Marc always smiled, and Leon touched various places and entered with a loud voice.

When Fritz gets frightened and closes the doorway, the voice of surprise comes out.

“Everyone, please fasten your seat belt. Fran, can you tell me how to fasten it?”

“I’m smart”

Brigitte entered the passenger seat while Fran taught how to fasten the seat belt. If merchants get in like today, escort is essential.

The rear seats became noisy when the Lessers began to run through the sky.

Flying through the sky is an impossible experience for the common people, so there is no way out, but the majority of the opinions were “I feel dizzy” or “I feel sick”.

Considering the reactions of Gil and Nicola who were delighted, today’s customers are stiff because they are getting older.

“Come back, Rosemine,”

Norbert rounds his eyes as people come out of my beast.

After all, it seems surprising that commoners come out from my beast one after another. Watching them as they lowered the wooden boxes of luggage, Norbert put his eyebrows in trouble.

“Rose Mine, are they from the Gilberta firm?”

“Yes, here is the permit from Aub Ehrenfest. Norbert, head to the children’s room. Please show me.”

“… I’m smart. Now then, please.”

Norbert laughs with a smile after showing a momentary crawl. At the same time, the chief priest who cleared up the beast put his hand on the temple and exhaled a deep sigh.

“Rosemine, originally merchants enter from a different entrance”

When I was pointed out that the entrance for the lord family to come and go and the place where merchants who are commoners come and go are completely different, I am drowning. It was something that had to be understood without thinking.

The merchant and I have different gates to enter the aristocratic street, and the gates to enter the castle are different. And merchants are supposed to come in from the entrance for ordinary people to enter and exit.

“That …. I’m sorry. I …”

¡I was embarrassed, and when I tilted my head, the chief shook my head lightly.

“Because there are no merchants who are brought down here by the beasts, this time it can’t be helped, but be careful afterwards. Norbert, I will tell Rosemine later in detail. Do it “

“I’m smart. Ferdinand-sama”

I will follow Norbert and Priest. A single-seater lesser. Behind it was the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce with a wooden box of merchandise.

“Good morning, Rosemine”

“Good morning, everyone. May I play with you until I’m ready”

The children’s expectations are heading here. 誼 ( Yoshimi ) Perceived as a great opportunity to connect with me Today, there are many parents who are looking at me.

“Slow, Rosemine”

It was Villefleet who was greeted by the standing of Nio. I’m asking for sales help today. I am overwhelmed with the work I am assigned to for the first time.

“Villfleet brothers once carted with you and show them how to play with them. It’s easier to buy if you know how to use it. This is an important mission. “

“Yeah, then we will win a game”

“Hey!”

Villefried enthusiasts made this winter began to line up the carta. Aristocrats with faces that seem to be interested in the demonstration of Carta that boys take the initiative will gather.

Talking to the girls, I found that the girl was on hand.

“You and your parents read the picture books to your father and mother. Your parents will know how much you have learned.”

“Yes, Rosemine”

After a while, the girls started holding a picture book and rushed to their parents, starting to read. Ask them to read today as they always read. My voice is a little nervous.

“Cornerius would like to play cards with friends”

¡When I handed Pong and Trump, Brother Cornelius shook his eyebrows.

“I’m Rosemine’s escort”

“Now there is no Angelica, only Cornelius can speak to the students of the Aristocratic House. Thank you in advance.”

“… as you said”

Cornelius brothers who gathered students and started playing like blackjack with playing cards gathered together with aristocrats.

When all the lines of sight were pointed to the demonstration, we immediately started preparing for sales.

I looked at the stand that was prepared in the corner of the children’s room as I had a meeting, and put my words to the caregivers.

“The stand is already ready. Thank you. Benno, please line up the products there.”

“I’m smart, Rosemine”

Align the products according to the meeting and prepare for the change so that it is easy to make an account. There are two chairs and a table in front of the table on which the product is placed, which is a seat for me and Villefried.

And, in the position where you can look around the whole room, there is a seat for the chief priest who is the supervisor of the teaching material sales this time, how the nobles move, Gilberta Shokai will enter and leave the castle I’m supposed to keep an eye out if I can make the right move, I will not make a stupid mistake.

The priest who took over the role of the supervisor was peeking at all the demonstrations one by one.

Benno and Marc, who can negotiate with aristocrats, stood beside me and Villefried’s seats, with Leon playing cards, Francs picture books, and Fritz lined with Carta.

“Rosemine, I’m ready”

Listening to Benno’s words, I wait for Villefried to win and speak to everyone.

“Thank you for your patience. From now on, teaching materials will be sold by the Gilberta Chamber of Commerce”

Villefried pushed the carta cleanup against the boy next door and came up and sat in a chair.

“If you are considering purchasing, please come here. This time, we will give priority to those with children”

When I smiled, a noble with a child came forward and asked.

We received greetings from children but not from parents, so we exchanged long greetings. Of course, this is the order of identity. Because this greeting was long and it was impossible to handle alone, I asked Villefried for support.

Rather, boys line up in front of Villefried and girls line up in front of me. After all, in order to be close, the same sex will be prioritized.

After finishing a lengthy greeting, I asked the two to stand up and offered an order form.

“What would Count Greschel use for?”

“Rosemine’s picture book is wonderful, and Carta and Trump will be interested because my sister will also be interested … I’m a cute daughter’s request.

Earl Greschel picked up the pen, smiled gently, and looked down at the daughter who looked at the purchase order next to him.

“Rose Mine-sama’s picture book is very easy to read. May my father see later”

While narrowing my eyes on a girl who laughs with great strength, I confirms the order form and gives it to Benno, who stands aside.

“Benno”

“I am ready”

Earl Greschel ’s side and Benno exchange money and goods according to the order form, and the sale is over.

“Please use it for your study”

“Yes, Rosemine”

When Count Greschel leaves, the next nobleman will come. It is a greeting again.

Looking at the side, Villefried responded to the nobility with a dignified attitude. I give Marc the order form I had written.

“The count of Kirnberga, this is very useful for studying. I remembered the names of the letters and gods. I encouraged them too.”

“Excuse me, Mr. Villefleet”

Listening to a long procession with me and Villefleet.

Only senior aristocrats who could afford it were able to purchase everything. As intermediate aristocrats, many brothers purchase carta and cards that everyone can use, and fewer people purchase all the picture books that are expensive.

Since the gods come out with the reading card of Carta, it seems to give priority to Carta over picture books.

It seems that when you become a low-class noble, it is finally possible to buy one. Still, the motivated children with carta and playing cards that they bought “I will win next year” are still good.

There were several children who had nothing and looked envious. Parents don’t know if they know from the start that they can’t buy. There is Philine with a face that does not float in it.

“Finene, do you think your parents aren’t there?”

“… Yes, there is a requirement today”

Other than the parents who didn’t come, they turned their eyes away, just like Philine was laughing and saying that she didn’t want to be talked about.

“Yes. Then we are considering renting picture books and carta that we are using at the end of the winter, so if you want to rent, please talk to your parents.”

“Thank you, Rosemine, …”

The money did not make a voice and only the lips moved small.

“You don’t need money to rent my materials”

Eh? And everyone looked up and looked at me with a sharp expression. As I laughed a little at the expected response, I put my hand on my mouth and screamed a little like a secret talk.

“I want a story that I don’t know. Please collect various stories.”

“That’s the story my mother taught me?”

“Yes, Filine taught me three more. I can rent three picture books.”

The faces of children of lower aristocrats including Filine shone.

“Rose Mine, can you rent a carta if I talk to you?”

“Yeah, I’ll lend you a carta if you don’t know about it. But be careful not to get it dirty or broken, and use it carefully.

“Yes!”

Get a parent’s stroke about using it carefully, getting it compensated if it gets damaged or damaged. In exchange for an unknown story, we decided to lend out teaching materials from spring to next winter.
