Frau-san brewed some coffee and brought it over. It wasnāt in a coffee cup, but in a mug, which somehow seems to fit Akane-sanās vibe.
They probably have regular coffee cups for guests, but since itās just me, she went with the mug on purpose.
[Hou~~ What a nice aroma. As expected of a product from Kuromu-samaās trading company, they are of excellent quality.]
[Miyama-sama, please be cautious not to be deceived. Sheās acting like she knows what sheās talking about, but this president usually only drinks cheap coffee.]
[Whatās wrong with that!? I donāt care if coffee is drip or canned, theyāre both coffee! Well, not like thereās canned coffee in this world.]
[Really? You picked out the sample beans so quickly, I thought you were knowledgeableā¦ā¦]
Akane-san seems to like coffee, but she doesnāt seem to be too particular about the types. Itās like how a salaryman would drink a can of coffee or grab some from a convenience store on the way to workāāāā Coffee would just be part of their morning routine.
However, she did pick out the beans quickly earlier, and now sheās talking about the quality just from the aroma, so she does seem knowledgeable.
[Ohn? Me, knowledgeableā¦ā¦ Oh, I see what you mean! Itās not that I know a lot from drinking different kinds myself; itās because I can judge the quality of the products my trading company handles. But when it comes to my personal coffee, Iām not that pickyā¦ā¦ Besides, if I stock expensive beans for myself, Frau and the other idiots will drink them without asking.]
[Nah, I think itās your fault for leaving high-end products where we can see them.]
[Thatās why I donāt leave those things outā¦ā¦ Ah, Frau, thereās some gift sweets on that shelf over there, serve some to Kaitoā¦ā¦ You can only have two.]
[ā¦ā¦Iāll have ten.]
[Try negotiating a bit more modestlyā¦ā¦ Three, and any more will be deducted from your pay.]
Theyāre having their comedy-like routine as usual, but I notice the sweets have already been placed in front of me, showing Frau-sanās efficiency.
Well, sheās also made herself some coffee and is drinking it, which certainly is just like Frau-sanā¦ā¦ I can see why she gets along with Luna-san.
[Well, thereās Ozma-san, one of the Five Warlords, Shea-san, a High-rank God, Amel-san, the Chief of the Wingedsā¦ā¦ that would be all at the moment.]
[You know, youāre saying that so casually, but those arenāt people you can just meet easily.]
Iāve also given some to Elise-san, but sheās just a regular person, and as for Makina-san, we only talked in a dream, so I didnāt give her any samples.
[Well, in this case, since Kuro is the client, if she really wants to, she can handle the promotion herself.]
[Ah, guess youāre right. Kuromu-sama knows a lot of people, and if she seriously wanted to, she could include her wide connections in her sales strategy. She probably just casually asked you to hand out some samples.]
[Rightā¦ā¦ Ah, speaking of which, the sales of the accessories I entrusted to Akane-san seem to be doing really well.]
[Well, of course, theyāre accessories made from the Dragon Kingās scales after all. Thereās no reason they wouldnāt sell. The Dragon King is widely revered, especially among merchants, so thereās a huge demandā¦ā¦ In fact, we even had to place some purchase limits on them.]
I already knew from Anima and Caraway that the sales of the accessories made from Magnawell-sanās scales, which I had entrusted to Akane-san for sale, were doing extremely well.
Speaking of which, I remember Lilia-san mentioning before that Magnawell-san is regarded as some sort of God of Commerce in certain circlesā¦ā¦ Apparently, itās related to things like the Flying Dragon Courier and the trade of monsters, but I donāt know the details.
[But if weāre speaking of promising results, it looks like Kaitoās tea brand is also thriving. You got a big boost from the initial buzz, but the fact that it continued to sell well afterward means the quality is being recognized. Arenāt you thinking of opening branches?]
[It seems like there are plans for that, but it looks like it could cause issues if we donāt open them simultaneously in the three Human countries. So if we do open stores, it would likely be in the form of a simultaneous grand opening for three stores, but weāre holding off because we donāt have anyone who can oversee those stores.]
[Yeah~~ If youāre going to expand across three countries, youād at least want someone who can use Teleportation Magic. It would be tough to manage all three stores if you focus on just one country, and since the products are aimed at the wealthy, youād have to be mindful of various things.]
[Right. Well, weāll figure that out graduallyā¦ā¦ once we find the right people for those stores, that is.]
As Akane-san said, it would certainly be easier to entrust those stores to people who can use Teleportation Magic. Using Teleportation Magic Tools could work too, but while weāre at it, Iād also prefer someone well-versed in magic.
Well, thereās no need to rush into it, so Iāll just keep it in the back of my mind.
[Afterword]
? ? ?: Since we have an Omnipotent-class being on standby, there shouldnāt be any problemsā¦ā¦ Good!]
Serious-senpai: [Which part of that is āGoodā!?]
