Three weeks after being there operation the Kuzakabe Food carriage had become a hot topic in La Breon. From morning till noon a long line would be assembled in front of the food carriage.
"I want one spoon of soft porridge with sauce on the side" a woman said as she gave two copper coins to Galla.
Galla made her proceed beyond the line to get her order. Due to Galla past as an adventurer she was very good at spotting thieves and trouble makers. There was a time when a two men claimed that the food had flies in it but Galla exposed them as stall owners who had been put of business by Shoto's food carriage and were trying to frame them. Nora once cought some one try to sneak beneath the carriage all she did was back up the carriage and he got trembled by the wheel she was honestly brutal in her approach.
Right now Shoto was watching everything together with Grysilia from a top a roof. There were times when they needed to step in when things got wild but apart from the everything went great.
(Boss the food is finished) Brianna sent a telepathic massage.
(You know the drill pack up and head back to the Inn) Shoto said.
Shoto had also got closer with his slaves he now referred to them as his people.
"Alright everyone scram foods finished" Galla chased away the the people who were still in line.
"Oh come on really?" A customer complained.
"Really now go home we also have to leave" Galla said pushing the people back with her strength.
"You will be back after noon right?" A man asked.
"Today is Dru so no" Nora chimed in.
"Awwwww!" The entire line whined.
"Get lost!!" And with that shout from Galla the people scattered as they didn't want to be banned from the food carriage.
Brianna and Luca came out of carriage covered in beats of sweat. Even though Shoto had install windows and vents the heat caused from cooking was intense.
"You guys did a good job today" the four heard Shoto's voice.
"Boss!" They exclaimed and bowed.
"Rise" by now Shoto was used to this behavior.
They packed up everything and headed back to the Inn. Once they arrived the put the carriage in the barn and went into the Inn.Vivi's Inn had gotten more customers thanks to the pie recipe Shoto had given her. Entering the Inn eyes watched them but they didn't mind as they went to their room.
Shoto placed a sound barrier over their room so no would evas drop on there conversation.
"So how much did we make today?" Shoto asked.
"About seven gold in copper" Galla said as she was in charge of the money.
"Seven?" Shoto was stunned.
Seven gold in copper was the amount they made after their first week of business. Now they were making the same amount in half the day.
"We need to find a way to sell food to more people" Shoto said.
Galla raised her hand to signal Shoto she wanted to speak.
"Yes"
"Boss wouldn't opening your own tavern help sell to more customers?" As expected of a dwarf business was in their veins.
"True but building on would take time " Shoto replied.
"Sir we could just by a building and turn it into a tavern"
" Hmm that is a good idea Grysilia but let's talk about this later"
Shoto didn't want to talk about increasi production right now as he had something to do today. He took out paper from the adventurers guild.
[An influencel figure had been afflicted with a cursed. The adventurers guild will pay 500 gold to whoever completes this quest. They influencel figure resides in the noble district of La Breon.
Quest Rank: Special]
If quest was ranked special it meant no specific rank was required to completely it.
Grysilia gave Brianna,Galla, Nora and Luca three silver in copper this was there allowance which they received at the end of the week.
"You all know your duty's right?" Grysilia spoke.
"Yes Miss" they answered in unison.
"Good if you're going out to by something then you should go in pairs and you must not be out for to long" she said.
"Yes Miss"
"Master we can leave now"
She and Shoto left the room and it the restaurant. As they were about to exit the Inn a man stood in their way. He had grey hair a, small mustache and wore a suit with a monochrome. All together he looked like a butler.
"Good morning mister Kuzakabe" the butler greeted with a small bow.
"And who are you?" Shoto asked narrowing his eyes.
"I am Norman a personal assistant of Daniel Bran owner of the Bran Merchant Group" Norman said.
Shoto ear twitched he had heard about the merchant group before. The Bran Merchant Group was group of four merchants that banded together to monopolies every business in La Breon. They swallowed up smaller business that they found had potential. They had their hands in the smithy, trade, farming and commerce.
"What do you want?" Shoto didn't want to waste time.
"Master Bran has invited you to his manor he would like to speak with you" Norman said it as if they had to accept.
"I'm busy so no" Shoto refused.
"It won't take long after all you are heading to the noble district to perform your quest aren't you?"
As soon as he finished that sentence Norman instantly felt a sense of danger. Shoto and Grysilia's eyes were narrowed dangerously, Norman had felt like this when he was an adventurer this feeling made aware that his head would fly if he said anything wrong.
"So your the one who has been spying on us" Shoto coldly.
"Please don't misunderstand I just trying to figure out the right time to approach you" cold sweat dripped down Norman's wrinkly forehead.
Shoto know his excuse was horse shit he wanted to walk past Norman when he spoke.
"Mr Kuzakabe this won't take too much of your time so please accept our invitation" now he asked.
Shoto pondered for a minute before agreeing he wanted to be done with this as soon as possible. They rode in a fancy carriage to the noble district. The noble district was built behind a wall separating it from the common and poor district.
The noble district was comparable to a private neighborhood in Shoto former world. It had mansions, social clubs and everything rich people liked.
The arrived at the Bran manor when they entered the manor and where quickly shown the way to Bran's office on their way they there Shoto spotted four women chatting. A woman with green and short blonde hair looked at them and spoke.
"And who are these people Norman?"
"Miss Circe these people are guests of master Bran"
"Oh" she gave Shoto a seductive smile that would make a man's heart skip a beat. She came over to great the young man.
"Circe Bran pleased to meet you"
Shoto's stoic expression didn't change even though a beautiful woman smiled at him . She had a splendid figure with average sized boobs.
"Same here" Shoto replied.
Circe was surprised by Shoto's response. Men would fumble over their words trying speak to her but this you used to words as if he didn't want to speak to which was true.
"Miss these people are in a hurry"
"Oh then forgive me for taking up your time" she said going back to the other three women.
Shoto and Grysilia followed Norman to Bran's office when they reached the office three man came out the door one after another. They looked pleased with themselves their eyes fell upon Shoto and Grysilia.
"Who are these people?" the man with glasses asked.
"They are guests"
"They elf too" the fat man said licking his lips.
"Yes" Norman answered then turned to Shoto and said.
"Mister Kuzakabe please wait here for a short while I'll inform Master Bran"
Shoto nodded. Two of the man left the hallway leaving only the fat man.
"Why don't you sell your elf" the fat man said
"She's not for sale" Shoto said without giving him a glance.
"Come on everything has a prise even if it's used" he smiled like pervert as he was about to put his hands on Grysilia.
Shoto grabbed his wrist squeezing it he the gave him a look dead in the eye.
"She is not for sale" Shoto's voice turned cold.
Chills went down the fat man's spine looking into Shoto's dark eyes.
"Mister Kuzakabe please enter"
Shoto let go of the man's wrist and entered Bran's office. The fat man still felt chills even after the door was closed.
In the office Shoto and Grysilia were greeted by a man in his thirty's this was Daniel Bran.
"Good morning mister Kuzakabe please sit" he gestured for Shoto to sit down.Shoto took a sit and let Bran continue speaking.
"Since your in a hurry I'll get the point of why I wanted to meet you" he used nice words with a polite smile.
"Join the Bran Merchant Group" he said.
