Takeo and Alice went into the tailor.
"Lady Alice, Lady Kitamizato, welcome.
The manager says hello.
"Yeah."
"Sorry to bother you.
and Alice and Takeo reply.
"What can I do for you today?
The manager asks what it is for today.
"Right.
What's going on with the trench coat for now?
"Yes, I could wear two commercially available S.M.L.LL's first.
Tomorrow, soldiers will be asked at the Soldier's Stuff next to the castle gate to reveal themselves and confirm their size.
"I see you're moving steadily.
As for this one, I think I'll order from the recruits, thank you.
"Hmm? What does that mean?
"No, because I thought it would be good publicity next month because the joint training of recruits in the three county territories is in the county territory of Godwin.
An order should be given to place an order from the recruit platoon.
"Oh, I see.
"I wish I could advertise well, is this all luck?
"Yes. I hope we get out in the right direction, too.
------------------------
"And, for the record, I thought about new clothes again.
"Huh!? Already?!?
"Yes, there's a problem?
"... ah... there isn't.
The manager and the clerk who was listening make him pull his face off.
"This time I'm going to make 'Best of Down Jackets'.
"What kind of clothes is it?
"Um, there's a vest the manager wears, right?
"Yes, this way, isn't it?
The manager takes off his jacket and shows it.
"Yes, I'll put two of these on top and sew the ends together.
So, you pack feathers inside.
"Oh, I see.
"If you make the seams fine and don't let out the air inside, it's quite insulating and warm.
"I see."
"I thought you might like to make this for the general public, not for a high price.
"Is it for the general public?
"Yeah. I made it my best because I think I can use my existing stuff to reduce the fabric area..."
"... let's make it prototype right away. Will time be all right?
"I'm fine... but, Alice, how's the lady?
"I'm fine, too. Oh, what do we do for lunch?
Shall I get you something?
"Right... manager, can I borrow your desk?
"I don't mind.
"Manager, we're going to go out for a little lunch.
"Yes, I understand.
Takeo and Alice left the store for lunch.
------------------------
Takeo and Alice were on their way to the tailor by purchasing a sandwich at the cafe they had gone to before.
"Dear Takeo, didn't you have to bother to take your seat off?
I went to buy it.
"No. In that case, at one end, you should leave.
"Really?
"Maybe since we left, the store's been bummed again, right?
For now, I'll temporarily sew two vests in cheap fabric and bring some cotton or feathers from somewhere, too.
"Again?... Oh, you saw it on the trench coat, didn't you?
"Yeah, the clerk over there will move quickly. Interestingly enough... you seem to be in the store again.
Takeo laughs couscous.
and arrive at the tailor. "CLOSE" is listed at the door of the store.
"Ah... it's going exactly as Takeo imagined..."
Alice entered the store with Takeo in a half-hearted manner.
------------------------
"I'm back.
Takeo enters the store and says hello.
"Welcome, Miss Alice, Dear Kitamizato.
The manager will welcome you.
"I'm done with the temporary sewing.
"You're as fast as ever.
Takeo says in dismay.
"Well, this time I said 'Best of Down Jackets'.
I thought about the vest shape of a jacket with feathers called down jackets... sleeveless.
Shall I say 'down vest'?
"Yes."
"This is because I wanted to keep prices down so I thought I could have less fabric area... sewing area.
"I see. By the way, where are you supposed to sell?
"From agriculture to forestry, you're for people standing in stores.
You're clothes that warm your body without interrupting your work because you lost your sleeve.
"What is the estimated price?
"... as a store manager, how many is it going to be?
"Right... mass-produced using the S.M.L.LL method of example... is it 1 piece of silver and 10 sheets of copper?
"I see. I assumed one piece of silver.
"Ugh... that's Kitamizato-sama.
"No, I haven't.
Takeo laughs bitterly.
"I don't know if you'd like to advertise a little throughout the city on this.
"And say?
"What I want you to buy is men in agriculture and forestry.
So I figured out what I should do to make those people buy...
"Yes."
"Why don't you make" Father's Day "?
"Father's Day... is it? enact on a special day?
"No, not the day the country or the lord acknowledges.
For example... I will decide on a day next month or the middle of next month at this store and hit the ad for that day.
I'll put it up all over the city thinking about "thank you to my loved ones", "thank you to my favorite father for your day" or whatever your name is.
If you can raise awareness, you think you can work with a restaurant or something to create synergies such as offering special products for Father's Day.
"It's definitely a city tour, that's a good idea.
"We need to create a market in the city guru,
Don't you think it's going to be a surprise?
Takeo said with a bitter smile, and the manager nodded.
