「Huh? Goivejon-san and, Foeldan-san?」
On a certain day, with the cafeteria taking shape, Haruna was waiting to open shop when Goivejon and Foeldan appeared at Rufeus Workshop.
「We ca when we heard that you was beginnin’ the cafeteria.」
「Is it goin’ alright?」
「Oh, there are a few concerns I have, but it’s going fine at the mont.」
Goivejon and Foelda, large luggage hauled on their backs asked Haruna, who responded with a smile exuding confidence. The cafeteria was, in fact, proceeding better than expected.
One of the grounds for concern, securing chefs, was quickly resolved when ten of them appeared out of the blue, and highly skilled ones at that (seriously, where were they hiding?). Thanks to their overflowing determination, Azuma Workshop as able to offer all the planned nus without any problem whatsoever.
「Are ye all good with the veggies, eh?」
「We have plenty of them stocked up just in case. I’ll tell you if we ever start running low, so when that ti cos please help.」
「Okay, we got any amount of veggies ye want. Please ask away, eh.」
Haruna responded to Goivejon’s question with a smile. If they had Ortem Village’s backup of diverse and varicolored vegetables, it was super easy to profit if all the people they served a day numbered a few hundred to a thousand. That was just how much of a surplus of agricultural production Ortem had.
「But wow, there’s a great sll in there, eh. I kinda feel hungry now, dood.」
「Then how about you eat inside? The tab’s on us and we’ll just call it sampling.」
「Thanks for the offer, but no need to worry. We got quite a bit of money.」
Foeldan, who had expressed his hunger, grimaced when Haruna offered them free food, to which he chided her.
Goivejon and Foeldan both had a lot of money, which was an actual problem. After all, despite having a large enough population in Ortem Village to count as a town, they did not have a monetary economy. Generally, the economy revolved around trade and the village’s location was isolated from the rest of the world, which ant that the money they had saved through peddling couldn’t be used other than to buy marine products in Wulls. As a result, there was a hefty amount of money in the hands of these two, who frequently worked away from ho.
Still, Haruna’s side didn’t exactly want that money either. At the current mont, not only did they have plenty of money; Goivejon and Foeldan’s money should be circulating throughout Farlane. And even if it wasn’t, they were taking away quite a bit of money from Farlane, and it would be rather problematic to have any more money taken out of the country.
「We do have room in our funding for samples on opening day, and they would be practice als, so taking money for that would be a little bad anyway.」
「That right?」
「It sure is.」
Goivejon asked doubtingly, and Haruna suppressed that with her own definitive answer. Even if it wasn’t a bad thing to have pocket money ready for opening day, it would be botherso to account for the revenue at this awkward timing. Haruna, who wanted to do all of this properly, wished to avoid receiving money from Goivejon and Foeldan for more reasons than one.
「Yeah, so eat a lot and tell us what you think. It’s the kind of flavor that appeals to the people of Rufeus, so it might not sit too well with your taste buds, but it’ll still be useful information.」
「Okay dood.」
「Ti to chow down, eh.」
While feeling a bit tricked by Haruna, Goivejon and Foeldan just nodded ekly. Picking their seats in the cafeteria Haruna guided them into, they waited leisurely for the food.
「It’s a simple building, eh.」
「Ye got a lot of seats. Are ye sure ye can deal with all of them?」
「I intend to investigate that very thing once we open. The nu currently only has seven different varieties, and the system is one where you pay money beforehand and clear up the tableware yourself, so I think we’ll manage with that. We’ve also implented magic tools for automatically washing and disinfecting the utensils. In addition, depending on the circumstances and demand, we might even increase the amount of people.」
Goivejon and Foeldan got the gist of what Haruna ant. She appeared to have put a good amount of thought into constructing a system that didn’t need more personnel.
「So what are ye doing fer serving tables?」
「Oh, we have them get the food themselves after paying.」
「Then we should go get our own food too, eh.」
「Ah, don’t worry about it today. It’ll be a slightly different layout than usual.」
Haruna said, bringing along a tray with large amounts of food on it. Every al had quite the quantity to it.
「The lunch sets generally consist of one of these als along with this bread and this salad, and then cheap tea attached.」
「Ye got quite the volu there, eh.」
「The youngsters will love the volu packed in these dishes, eh.」
As they listened to Haruna’s comntary, Goivejon and Foeldan split up appropriate amounts of this food for the youth between themselves. Since Foeldan was here, both of them could certainly finish up, but if it was Goivejon by himself, even a third of this stuff would have been pretty impossible.
Not only that, but the bread and salad that Haruna said ca in sets also had ample mass. The bread was regular rye, but much higher quality than that of the school cafeteria’s, with the size also being sowhat bigger than the regular kind. The salad also had enough to distribute, and it was unlikely that the nutritional value would be heavily biased.
「This stew’s tasty, eh.」
「The fla-broiled ats all have salt ‘n pepper on ‘em, eh. Seems to be a seasoning anyone would like.」
Goivejon and Foelda said as they divided and checked the food’s flavor. They also made sure to dip the bread in the stew and put so of the at between slices.
After trying various ways of eating the food, the conclusion the two of them ca up with…
「I say it’s a matter of taste but it’s purty decent, how about you Foeldan?」
「Yeah, prolly is a matter of taste. I felt it was a bit lacking, but it was purty good for ye eh Goivejon?」
「Aye aye.」
…was this.
「How much ye pay fer this?」
「25 tirols per individual product, 30 tirols per set, so far is the plan. So if we decrease the amount, we’ll also decrease the price 5 tirols, and we increase it, it’ll be 5 higher.」
Haruna responded to Goivejon’s question with the prices they had planned. Hearing this, Goivejon and Foeldan agreed that these were cheap prices.
「If these prices correspond to these amounts, that’s purty darn cheap. While I can see the taste bein’ a split of interest between other countries, they also ain’t dramatic flavors to the point where they’re inedible, so with the price ‘n amount I doubt there’s room for complaint.」
