“Good work Edel!”

It was getting late in the evening, so I asked Edel to go home first.

The fruit platter was a popular item for a little snack after the dance.

The couple who liked it ordered to bring it to their house next time.

Good for Edel.

Tomorrow he will go to the Mainz Cathedral, so I will give him the cooler box with the ice inside.

I asked Harry to help carry the cooler box and the fruit plate since Edel cannot carry them by himself.

I also told Edel that if the ice in the cooler box was no longer usable due to melting, he should come to Hungry Bear tomorrow morning to get more ice.

It would be easier if we had a freezer, but there is no such thing in this world.

Ginjiro wondered if there was anything he could do.

—

“Thank you very much. We will inform you about the ballroom dance recital at a later date. As for the dresses, we will bring them to you as soon as they are finished so that you can check the sizes and designs.”

At first, I was thinking of delivering the finished dress to Rachel’s dance hall and having the customer take it there.

However, since it was necessary to check the dress once it was fitted and sewn, Elvis and Ginjiro decided to bring it to them.

Well, I think it was Elvis’ own decision.

The dress exhibition was over after seeing off the last customer.

“Good work, Elvis. Thank you for having your mother come on such short notice.”

Since the mother is for her son, there is no problem, but since she asked for the yokan, I will give it to her obediently.

I feel like I’m always paying tribute to Elvis’ mother.

But the mother is straight on instinct, so Ginjiro doesn’t feel bad about it.

“How many did you sold?”

All the customers who came to the exhibition bought dresses. Some customers wanted to buy more than one dress, but I asked them to buy only one dress this time because we had to have enough dresses for everyone in time for the recital.”

Elvis had not taken a good break, and as expected, he looked tired.

“I’ll brew a pot of tea, and we can start cleaning up after a short break.”

Ginjiro suggests to everyone, and at the same time, the door to the dance hall opens.

“Rachel-sama. May I have a moment?”

Sebastian is the one who came in.

Since he is the Mainz family’s butler, he is also acquainted with Rachel.

“Our guest insists on seeing the exhibition, would you mind giving us a few moments of your time?”

A guest? Sebastian’s presence means it’s either the tiger or Sophia.

The answer is tiger.

Adelheit-san and Francesca-san, whom I met yesterday, and a lot of attendants also came.

“Madam Rachel, it’s been a long time. I’m sorry to bother you so suddenly. I heard you guys were having fun, so I came over.”

I didn’t think she would come, but Ginjiro doesn’t let it show on his face.

This could be a good customer for Elvis, and no one can stop this tiger in the first place.

I’m just surprised at the number of people accompanying them. ……

“You must be Elvis. Aren’t you a nice guy?”

Elvis was like a child to the tiger.

“Ginjiro-san, this is going to be a big deal.”

Milia is nervous.

It was unusual, I thought, but I had to deal with the tiger to get started, so Ginjiro responded.

“Everyone, thank you very much for yesterday. It is a pleasure to see you again. Before we look at the dresses, could you please register your names here?”

Ginjiro asks them to write their name on the exhibition participants.

What’s wrong Milia? They might become customers.

I just asked the tiger and her friends to write down their names.

“Well, this is interesting. Do you want me to write my name here?”

Franzeska-san, whom I met yesterday, is happy that this is an exhibition.

Adelheit-san is laughing.

The attendants, Rachel-san, and Milia aren’t laughing, since I wanted to end it quickly, Ginjiro proceeded indifferently.

“Umm. We are giving necklaces to people who came to this dress exhibition, could you pick out a necklace with a stone you like?”

Ginjiro shows the visitor a power stone necklace.

“Oh my, I’ve never seen these stones before. It is rare to see stones in colors like pink and purple.”

Adelheid-san seems to be interested in the necklace.

She takes it in her hand, places it around her neck, and looks in the mirror.

“Each of these stones has its own meaning, but it wouldn’t be interesting if I told them all. The one you think is good is the one you need right now, in my opinion, so please choose one to start with.”

After telling it to them, they are thinking about it with serious eyes.

The tiger asks me which one suits her better, but I ignore her.

Do that with your husband.

If I make the wrong choice, I’ll be in trouble, so I try to stay out of that domain.

“You are not fun.”

The tiger complains but I ignore her anyway.

Ginjiro can’t see a good future for getting involved.

The tiger chose a brown, gold, and brown striped stone.

The Japanese name for this stone is torame-ishi (tiger’s eye stone), and it is commonly called tiger’s eye, a stone that brings fortune and good luck.

It sounds like a stone of fate, but I can’t tell her that, so I tell her that it is a stone that is said to bring money and good luck.

“Ara, really? That’s why I knew it was destiny from the moment I found it.”

I explained the stones that the other two had chosen, thinking in my heart that it just coicidence.

The stone that Adelheid-san chose was ruby, so I told her that I was envious of her because it was a stone that promised unchanging love to her loved ones.

Franzesca-san chooses pearls.

She was delighted when I told her that the stone symbolizes female beauty.

The tiger chose tiger’s eye, Adelheid chose ruby, and the petite and pretty Francesca chose pearl, which in Ginjiro’s opinion is perfectly suited for them.

“Ara?　What’s this one?”

“That’s a necklace for sale, would you like to see it?　It’s expensive at ten large gold coins, but if you like it, just let me know.”

The three of them take the zirconia necklace and think about it for a while.

“Ginjiro-san?　Are these ten large gold coins?”

The tiger’s eyes are scary.

“It’s expensive, isn’t it? I’m sorry.”

Ginjiro apologizes, but on the contrary, they are astonished that it would be strange to sell a jewelry necklace that shines so much for 10 large gold coins.

I look at Milia and she nods, but never comes close.

“If it’s okay with Ginjiro-san, I’ll buy them all for that price, but are you sure?”

All five zirconia necklaces were purchased by the three of them.

“Elsa and I will get two, and Franzesca will get one necklace with this pretty pink color.”

It looks like it’s been decided.

Each of them took their favorite necklace, as Franzesca-san had a lot of other jewelry, so it was kept as one.

“I’m happy because I wanted a pink necklace, but do you have any others, Ginjiro-san?”

It’s an offer from the lovely Franzesca, but I refuse because I only have very expensive things.

“Do you still have it, Ginjiro-san?”

The tiger and Adelheid were both biting, but Franzesca insisted that I show it to her first, since she was the one who asked me about it first.

“I still have one, but this is expensive. It’s a famous stone in my hometown. …… come to think of it, it’s the same color as the one Francesca-san picked out earlier. But this one is really precious, so much so that it took all my money to buy it. It’s okay?”

I refused, but it seems that I’m inciting these three people.

Milia and the others, who had been watching from afar until a while ago, have gathered nearby.

“Here it is.”

I take out the famous brand pearl necklace that I bought by mistake.

Silence follows.

Ginjiro, who can’t stand the silence anymore, “will you try it on?” said.

“Umm, Ginjiro-san, is it okay with you?”

When I told her, of course, the lovely Francesca-san’s eyes changed to the same eyes as Elsa-san’s, aiming for the same prey.

Thinking that women are scary, I try to hand her the necklace, but Franzeska raises her hair and turns her back.

Should I?　I thought, but I guess that’s the way this goes.

I was so nervous with Sophia that my hands were shaking, but I wasn’t nervous with Francesca-san.

“There is also a mirror, so please check it if you like.”

As Ginjiro holds the mirror, Franzeska-san happily looks at the necklace.

The tiger and Adelheid join in, saying how beautiful Francesca is.

“Thank you, Ginjiro-san.”

After that, I had a talk with Francesca’s attendant with Milia and we agreed to sell it for one holy gold coin.

How much is a holy gold coin?　I wondered, but I was told that it was the equivalent of 100 large gold coins, or 10 million yen in Japanese yen. (USD 69.376)

It sold for an unexpected amount of money.

When I saw Milia, she said it was worth that much, so I decided to sell the pearl necklace for one holy gold coin.

Francesca’s attendant pays for everything with a kind of credit card.

The payment is completed when the card is held over the magical device that Milia brought.

Ten million yen by credit card, Francesca-san is super rich?

Arigatoo gozaimasu!
