"hmmm, do you think sothing like this will work?"
I am waiting for Chris to co in the guest room while reviewing the business plan I made.
Incidentally, there are no computers or printing presses in this world, so the business plan is hand-written.
While I was writing it, l said to , "You're drawing it, it's a little strange," which made a little depressed.
Magic research and experintation with Sandra.
I asked Ellen and Alex to use the attribute quality tester, and I also asked mory to help with my mory and knowledge.
Using these, I was able to do the groundwork to resolve the fuel problem that Ary had indicated.
Now I need to work with Chris and put together a business plan to persuade his father.
Chris is the best at this point, so I contacted him and said, "I would like to consult with you on a new business plan," and Chris replied that day, "I will visit you tomorrow."
When Chris finished, she looked down at the list again, gave a dubious look, and continued talking to with a look of horror on her face.
"...... and is this okay? You said before that it would be a problem, so you'd pass on it. ......?"
'I think so. But unlike that ti, I don't think it's likely to be a problem. I'll contact them in advance and let them know what's happening, even if it's by letter. After that, as much as possible, I think it would be good to have small kids. There will be a lot to rember."
She seed relieved to hear my words and put on a relieved expression.
'I understand. I'm not ready for the case you asked for before, so I'll check it out as well.'
'Yes, thank you."
When the eting was almost over, Chris suddenly rembered.
"Oh, by the way, Rid-sama, there is sothing I would like to ask you: ......"
"Yes? What is it?"
Chris heard my reply and with a suspicious look on her face, she said slowly, .
"When I ca to the ...... mansion, Garn said to , 'Thank you for teaching the art of negotiation to Master Rid. Did I teach Master Rid any negotiating sk"ills ......?"
"...⁉ ‼"
I was sobbing unintentionally.
I didn't think that the exchange I had with Garun the other day would ever co to Chris' ears.
I suddenly coughed up a lung, and Chris called out to in a concerned tone.
"Master Rid⁉ Are you all right⁉?"
"I'm sorry, I'm fine. ...... Thank you, Chris. But ,...... I must apologize to Chris,......."
"Huh......?"
I explained what had happened the other day to her, who was stunned by my words.
When Chris heard what I had to say, she creased her brow and made a grim face.
When she finished listening, she slumped her shoulders and muttered
'What the ...... are you doing to ......? Don't use as an excuse ......."
'Hahaha ...... sorry?"
I laughed dryly at Chris's words and then apologized.
Chris, who was watching the situation, seed to have an idea and grinned a nasty smile.
What's wrong?
"...... would be good. I will tell Master Rid about the " business science" handed down in the Saffron Trading Company from now on, since it is a good opportunity. That way, it will not be a lie. In addition, we will have many more etings in the future, so it will be an excuse for to co to see you regularly".
"I'm sure that's fine, but is it really safe to tell the outside world about the " business studies" that have been handed down in the Saffron Trading Company?"
I don't know what it is, but " business learning" passed down in the Saffron Trading Company sounds great.
Chris smiled happily when she heard my answer and said,
'Yes, it's not that difficult. It's not that difficult. It's more of a study to improve mory. In business, there is a lot of information that cannot be left in written form, so I think it is fundantal to improve one's mory. Of course, there is more to it than that. Well, mory improvent is likely to be useful for you, Master Rid. ...... Be prepared, please....... ......?"
'Umm, yes? Please be easy on ?"
Chris had a wry smile on her face the entire ti she was explaining "comrcial science.
I would later regret my easy reply at that ti.
◇
Later, Chris taught how to improve my mory, which was quite a challenge.
Chris gave a list of numbers orally, and I had to morize and recite them instantly.
Chris smiled and said to as he saw struggling.
, "Master Rid, you seem to forget things easily even when you are told to 'pull yourself together,' so I will take this chance to remind you of so that you don't forget it in the future."
"I will be careful from now on."
By the way, as a result of this training, my mory will improve and I will be able to save the day in various ways, but that is a story for the future.
I'll let you use the hot springs as much as you like from now on, and I'll ask for your forgiveness.
I thought about this, and then I asked Chris about sothing new.
"Chris, thanks for the business plan. I'll talk to my father about it.'
"No problem, I'm glad I could be of help."
"And I have a new item I'd like you to procure for , is that all right?'
"Yes, what is it?"
I gave Chris a list of items I had prepared on a separate sheet of paper, explaining what I would need from now on.
After Chris finished listening to , she looked at the list and made a difficult face.
"One is easy, or rather, I think I can get it right away. But what is this 'tree that produces a white liquid when the trunk is damaged' used for? The na doesn't even sound familiar. ......"
"t's a secret yet, but it would definitely be good for Chris.s, so seeds, saplings, whatever you can think of, please.'"
"I understand i will try to find it "
While I was staring at the paperwork, I heard Deanna's voice from outside the room.
'Chris-sama is here. May I take you to see her?"
'Yes, please."
Chris with head bobbing in the air, entered the room.
Chris and I greeted each other briefly and sat down on the sofa facing each other across the desk.
I told Deanna that I apologize, but I would like her to wait outside the room as we were going to have a business eting.
She heard my words, smiled, and said,
"I'm sorry, . But please be careful not to say anything too reckless to Chris."
"I won't say ....... What do you think I am?
'No, , I'm afraid that everything you do these days, Master Rid, is very unconventional. ...... Then I'll leave you to it."
Deanna spoke softly, as if to nail , and then left the reception room.
Chris, who had been watching the whole sequence, looked at with a dubious expression on her face.
What did you do this ti, Master ...... Rid?"
"What⁉ I didn't do anything. More importantly, I wanted you to see this today ......."
I handed Chris a business plan of my own creation and verbally described the entire plan I was thinking of and the problems I was facing.
I then told her that I would have to convince my father and asked her to check the contents to make sure there were no problems.
As she listened to my explanation and looked over the docunts, she was very serious, but when I looked into her eyes, I could see a complex mix of hope and awe.
I was a little concerned by her appearance, and muttered to myself, "Oh, is there sothing wrong with the business plan?"
After I finished my explanation, Chris read my business plan again from the beginning.
After that, Chris slowly put the docunt on the desk and turned over with her hand on forehead and let out a deep sigh.
"Haaaa...... first of all, this business plan is very well detailed . If you can 'make it happen,' though,...... . Rid, I don't an to be skeptical, but can you really do sothing like this? The initial investnt costs are so great that you'll be in trouble if you can't pay them?"
Yes, that's right. I think we will be fine on that point. I will pay for the initial investnt out of my profits from the lotion and rinse. If the sells is not enough, I may ask Chris from ...... to be a co-financier."
I smiled as I said this.
Chris sighed again, looking a little taken aback by the situation.
'Hah...... well, since it's . Rid's doing, I'm sure he won't make any mistakes, so I'll be happy to invest in it then as well.:
"Thank you, Chris."
I smiled and thanked her, thinking that she was really dependable.
Chris smiled a little at my words, looked down at the docunts again, and seed to find a point
'If you are going to submit this to Rainer-sama, I think it would be better if you write this point in a little more detail."
'What? Where is it?"
Thus, I asked Chris to check and correct my business plan.
Chris was going to check the business plan and make so changes.
◇
After all the checks and corrections were done, Chris and I were taking a break over a cup of tea that Deanna had brewed for us.
Chris suddenly rembered sothing and said, "
." co to think of it, the contents in the Business Plan are about you, . Rid, so you tried them out in advance, didn't you?'
'Yes. As you can see, I couldn't convince my father with just a hypothetical conversation. I tried at the back of the house and at Ellen's place".
Chris heard my words and gave a stunned look.
"I can imagine how 'unconventional' Deanna-san was the very first thing you said ......."
Hahaha ......."
I had returned a dry laugh at Chris's words.
It's true that I don't feel like I'm putting a lot of heart and effort into Deanna.
