270 summer palate

"d*mn, it's hot. ............. It's a good thing.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea.

"You're sloppy. It's much hotter in Japan than here, isn't it? It's much hotter in Japan, isn't it? Here, you can get a cool breeze in the shade, and if it's really hot, you can bathe in the water.

"Even so, it can't be helped if it's hot. I don't know why you seem so calm, Masaru-san. Today's weather is quite hot for this city, you know.

"Hmm? Ah, I'm a god... -40C or -40C doesn't matter much. I don't really care if it's minus 40 degrees or 40 degrees. What's that?

What is that? That's a total cheat!

I was living a normal life before I became a god. Don't keep complaining. Don't complain.

I'm not sure what you're talking about.

What are you doing? I'm not sure. Oh!

I'm not sure what you're doing here.

The merchant who came this morning brought a cart full of them. Do you like it too, Mikoto?

"I love it! It's corn, isn't it?

Yes, there was corn in Masaru's hand. It was not yellow like most Japanese corn, but orange like a tangerine, which reminded me of another world, but it was definitely corn.

Do you think it should be grilled?

Of course you should boil it!

In such a case, there is no quarrel here in Vintaria.

"Okay, let's do both. "Okay, let's do both. Mikoto, go to the kitchen and keep the kettle door open, otherwise we won't be able to boil it. Okay.

"Yes, sir!

He smiled at Mikoto, who had disappeared in a flash, and carried the barbecue set to the plaza for his request for grilled corn.

I'm glad it's not really hard, dry corn... There are other ways to eat it, but grilling or boiling this raw corn is the most luxurious. Oh.

There are other ways to eat it, but baking or boiling this raw corn is the most luxurious..." "Oh, Master Masaru, you know a lot about eating cheap corn? In this town, they don't sell corn unless it's fresh, so I decided not to buy cheap, easy-to-store corn this time. What does "corn" mean?

That's what the merchant who brought us the corn said.

Oh, you grow all kinds of corn? I'd love to have some. Let's work together to improve the variety! We won't interfere with your business by growing our own, so why don't we work together to research new varieties and see if we can get more of the good stuff?

"How is that possible? It sounds like a great idea to me, but I'm not sure if I can afford it. .... Hmm?

"Hmm? If that's the case, why don't you supply us with a steady stream of goods? I'm not sure what to do, but I'm going to do it. "Really?

"Really? If that's the case, then by all means! I'll be sure to talk to the villages that produce it to make sure it meets Masaru-sama's wishes.

I'll be sure to talk to the villages that produce it to make sure it meets your wishes. Good business.

Happy business. But I'll make sure to nail it down.

"I'll also check the profit margins of the villages and make sure they're not making exorbitant margins along the way, okay? If you get greedy, you know what I mean?

Yes! Even if you don't do anything unreasonable, your profits will increase as your trading volume increases. The better the product, the more profit you will make, and we will never get greedy and let others take our profits. If you know what you're doing.

It's all right if you know what you're doing. It's almost ready. Let's eat together. Let's eat together.

The smell of the corn cooking brought people together. When the corn was cooked, the place was filled with drooling people.

"Mikoto has some boiled corn, so everyone will get a turn at handing out the finished product.

"I see that everyone is lining up properly, giving priority to children and women. I want my people to learn from this. .... I want to learn from them.

When can I get some grilled corn from the side of the line? The merchant sighs as he looks at the young merchants scurrying from one side of the line to the other, wondering when they will get their corn.

"You get used to it. If you can afford to be kind to others, others can afford to be kind to you, and it will come back to you. It's like business. You have to benefit the other person first. I'm learning.

I'm learning. If you'll excuse me for a moment, I need to talk to one of my young men. I'll be waiting in line when you're done. Excuse me.

Take it easy on him. Take it easy.

With that, the merchant hurried off to join the young merchants. After this, corn was so popular that it became a popular food in Vintaria. ..........

"Oh! My corn...I gave it all away. I've given away all my corn.

This is the first time I've been able to do this.
