Yesterday was so tiring but at the same so fulfilling!
Temone had a great feedback and some observations that I'm sure it can help improve our service.
For yesterday's report we have:
90% of the nobles who came sign the platinum membership. The 10% who didn't signed the gold membership. It's all thanks to Mother and Father amicable (pressure) conversation. Also I cannot discredit my amazing staff, we receive many compliments for the service and products.
We also had many people who passed in front and entered our store. 50% only consumed some tea and snacks, while the other 50% signed membership (Silver/Gold). A lot of people also asked if we are hiring, what made me wondered what was so attractive in working at a tea house.
Talking about hiring, one of the nobles that visited Temone yesterday sent me a letter asking if his son could works under me and could work in any position. His son's name is Leon Alby, and if I'm not wrong he is in the top 10 of my class in the Royal Academy. I think I'll make him my secretary. Answering to Viscount Alby, I asked his son to report in HQ tomorrow.
*tock tock*
"Miss, Master and Madam are waiting for you to have breakfast"
"Thank you for telling me Mary. Could you ask someone to send this letter for Viscount Alby, as soon as possible?"
"Sure Miss"
...
"Good Morning, Mother, Father and brothers. Sorry I was answering a letter"
"It matters not my bunny, sit down"
"Excuse me then"
Today breakfast is eggs, toast, some fruits and bacon. Taking my coffee I start to ask for their feedback.
"So, do you have any suggestions, complains or praises?"
"Well, I like the design you made in each room. And the noblewomen loved that they could read many romances there. They also liked that they could embroidery in a place that resembled a tea party. If I had to suggest something is that you should add cakes on the menu and have a separate part for the tea shop"
"As for me, the nobles that I talked they liked that you offered cigars and all of them complimented the collection of books you gathered. One complain is the name of the rooms and one suggestion is open more private rooms"
"Oh yes the name of the rooms. They will be changed: the commoner room -> rose room, the noblewomen room-> magnolia room, the noblemen room-> tulip room, the nobles room-> echinops room and the common room-> bouquet room. What you think?"
"It's better"
"What about you Niisama?"
"All my friends complimented you. You should just be careful with the books. Also tell you managers to behave appropriately"
It seems he didn't forget about yesterday. I nodded my head, but I'm not confident I can make them change.
"Well I know brother. About the books, each of them have the IP mark, so we can identify if the book is brought or ours and because every client is always has some staff with them is impossible to steal them"
"It is so unfair that only me didn't go!"
Pinching the cheeks of my lovely otouto, I soothed his tantrum
"I brought scones yesterday as an apology didn't I? And tomorrow Fame is going to open and you are invited. Do you want to come with me at lunch or are you going only at night with our parents and Elder Brother?"
"I'll go with you at lunch, don't you dare to abandon me at home!"
"Yes, yes. You are the Master"
"Hmph!"
"Cecile, I forgot about the opening tomorrow and I booked an appointment with a friend of mine"
"You can call them to Fame though"
"Ah- is better not, we agreed to go to another place"
Can't go? Don't tell me...
"Brother She has a lover. Is improper of you to meet her at night, unless His Highness is also going?"
"Is nothing much, she just wants to ask for some advice about Albert. Because she passes the day with him she is only available at night so..."
"Preposterous!"
"YOU!"
Brother I will pray for your soul.
"Have you ever thought what will happen if people discover that you are going to meet the future Queen at night ALONE?! Do you even care about your future career? If you don't want to be the Prime Minister please tell me now, because I have to begin to train your brother"
"What is so good about her that you still don't give up on even after she chose someone else? If you don't get your act together I will send you to the north border as a soldier, I'm sure your Godfather will be please with it"
Niisama godfather, the general who is in charge of the north Brother, Marquis Brennan. He is a huge man, who talks loudly and loves to fight. He also extremely smart and cares about his soldiers. His is the cause that the nomadic tribes at north don't attack us.
I should talk with Brother after the breakfast, he is going to skew from his original path. Because the story of the otome game and the reality are not the same anymore I'm not sure how his future will be.
Even if he is stupidly in love right now, is my duty as his baby sister to bang his head until he wakes up.
