535 Episode 525: The Royal Family is thrilled 3. (The Mattari Tea Party of Takeo and the others. Discussion of the Third Prince family. ）

"Master Takeo, this is delicious."

"Dear Alice, isn't it delicious? ♪

How's Ku?

"Kew ♪ Kew?

"Nha."

"Lord, I admire that cu and balls are delicious!

Alice was eating a grilled apple with Mia and Ku.

Takeo and the others had been having tea for Bo, but the little ones said, 'I'm hungry!' And I started complaining about hunger, so I was making baked apples (with butter) saying, 'Well, last time it was just Mia, shall we all eat?'

By the way, the balls made boiled melted apples until they were slightly shaped with more milk, which seems to be popular.

"That was good.

I just made it easy.

Oh, next time I go home to Elvis Mansion, shall I put a baked apple in the bread?

"" Huh!?

Alice and Mia are surprised.

"Oh? What's up?

"Do you put it in the bread?

Because apples have water and air... doesn't that make them snug in the bread?

"Ho... have you done it?

"No... I've never seen it.

"So shall we do it?

"... it will be absolutely soothing..."

"Ha, you can't give up without even trying, can you?

Maybe we can make something delicious, right?

Takeo spoke pleasantly.

------------------------

"His Highness Alma, His Highness Leila.

"Hmm? What's going on? Erica."

Erica speaks to Leila and the others as she looks at Takeo and the others.

"Somehow I'm thinking of a new dish over there..."

"Huh? Is that what Mr. Takeo always does?

"Huh? Really?

"Right. Mr. Takeo, how many ideas do you have?

Do you think you'll tell me someday?

"Alma, if your sister cares too much, you can't do it, can you?

How much more do you pay now than that!

I take Leila's bulleted list seriously.

"Um... we're moving to the neighborhood next time, right?"

Alma bothers me.

"Should I give it a little more when I do?

Erica also bothers with her arms together.

"How much do you think Erica's got on the market?

"Recipes are usually kept secret in stores, where each cook steals a recipe with his own tongue..."

"It is.

I don't usually sell these recipes.

If you come up with anything, it should be a means of selling yourself into a restaurant based on that dish or a royal castle or a nobleman... how you see the value of the dish itself is going to be the key.

Leila nods at Erica's thoughts, too.

"... do you want to pay from my payment?

"" Huh!?

Alma and Leila see Erica.

"I have 3,000 gold coins... and I think I can use them if I want to, like, 100.

"Hey... hey, that's the payment!?

"There are too many gold coins!?

Alma and Leila lurk their voices and stop Erica.

"Huh?"

"Huh? No.

Don't tell me how many gold coins you have in front of other people!?

"Huh."

"Isn't this... not worldly?

There should be no such thing as 100 pieces of gold in the recipe!?

"No... because it's a recipe for a dish that only Mr. Takeo can make in this world, right?

"Yeah, that's right.

"Then in the future, if you monopolize recipes only in the royal family (...), that's all you can serve with a welcome meal when other nobles visit, right?

Then isn't it a shame to give out 100 gold coins?

"That's... right.

"No... Erica, that's a quick count.

Alma agrees and Leila makes a difficult face.

"Why?

"Mr. Takeo is from the Elvis family in the first place.

That means this dish is served at the Elvis family's usual table.

Then it won't be the Elvis family against special dishes for welcome.

I could be the other Earl of Godwin or Count Temple, though.

"I see.

So there's nothing you can do?

"Yep. At least you don't have to pay for the recipe it says here (...).

"... I see.

So what about this payment?

"Mm-hmm... as 20 copper coins per... 260 copper coins... 2 silver coins and 60 copper coins..."

"That's going to be an amount that won't hurt or itch.

Alma answers Leila's estimates.

"Layla, do you think you can add to our royal pride?

"... ten times?

"Is it two gold coins and six silver coins?

"... there's going to be a future with Mr. Takeo, and a lot of it in a place called my sister's husband. Three gold coins?

"Is it reasonable?

"That doesn't sound bad.

Erica and Alma also nod at Leila's calculations.

And the others came in nervously.
