“Thank you very much. Please take care on your way home.”
The three tigers ordered a dress from Elvis.
Elvis mother took their measurements and I left everything else to them.
The amount of money they paid was 10 large gold coins each, which was too different compared to others.
They also knew that there is a ballroom dance recital next month, so they did not want to rush the order, and said it would be fine as long as the dresses were finished.
“Well, it was kind of amazing.”
Ginjiro brewed a cup of tea to take a break this time.
“I’m sure Ginjiro-san doesn’t realize it, right?”
Milia asks Rachel.
“That’ s right. I don’t think he knows. But maybe that way is better for him.”
I get the feeling that she’s looking at me with a kind of dumbfounded look, but since nothing good seems to be coming out of it, I ignore it.
“How long will it take you to make the dress?”
We received orders for thirteen dresses this time, and the last three that came in.
“I think I can get everyone’s fitting done in half a month. I’ll have the people check the tentative stitches when they are ready, and if there are no problems, I’ll proceed with the finishing at the same time.”
As expected, the tigers dresses are out of hand, but they’re not in a hurry.
I tell Elvis that I will be there for the fitting and delivery of the dresses.

What was decided for the ballroom dance recital was
1. The ballroom dance recital will be held on a day when the two moons are full moons.
2. Tickets will be made by Ginjiro and sold by Rachel and the Commercial Guild. The price is 2 silver coins and includes food and drink.
3. The recital will be held in the dance hall, and the party will be held in the courtyard. Ginjiro will arrange the party.
4. The judge will be Rachel.
We will not rank the dancers in detail because we want the audience to feel the pure enjoyment of ballroom dancing.
The top three pairs judged by Rachel will dance their specialty dances to determine first through third place.
5, Many awards will be created and presented, such as Best Dressed, Newcomer, Best Couple, and Rachel Awards.
We will continue to give out a wide range of awards so that ballroom dance recitals will continue to be held in the future.
The general outline of the event went something like that.
This dress exhibition and ballroom dance recital began with a casual remark by Ginjiro.
I think the dress exhibition was a success because we received a lot of orders.
Now it remains to see if the customers will like the dresses, but I think it will be fine.
Ballroom dance recitals are not about sales or profits, but about having fun.
No, to be precise, I might just want to support Rachel-san’s life.
In a sense, I ask Milia to go along with my selfishness, so I tell her I’m sorry.
“It’s all right, I am in charge of Ginjiro-san. Besides, this dress exhibition, the sales of the thirteen dresses that Elvis-san received were 27 large gold coins. The commission alone was 2 large gold coins and 7 small gold coins. And since we are receiving this commission just for assisting this time, it’s more than enough.”
“I see. I am glad to hear you say so.”
Milia is excellent even from Ginjiro’s point of view.
Ginjiro was happy that such a person was in charge, yet he was sorry that not much profit was being made.
“And do you remember the dresses of Elsa-sama and the others?”
Speaking of which, I left the order to her, and each of them ordered.
Since there were three dresses that cost 10 large gold coins, the commission for this alone is 3 large gold coins.
The three of them alone have exceeded the sales of the others.
I looked at Elvis, who was unusually scratching his head in embarrassment.
“Ginjiro-san, aren’t you forgetting something? That necklace is worth one holy gold coin.”
It was an unrealistic amount of money, so it had slipped my mind.
A pearl necklace costs one holy gold coin. And the zirconia necklace, too, all sold.
Milia smiles brightly.
“That’s right. The fee for the necklace alone is 108 large gold coins.”
TLN: 10%. Pearl necklace 1 Holy = 1000 large gold coin (Fee 100) +8 Zirconia necklace @10 large =80 (Fee 8) 5 bought by the tigers and the other 3 are the couples who ask before .
When I ask about the fees, it is automatically calculated if I pay or receive the payment with a magical tool that the commercial guild has.
The commercial guilds pay taxes to the lords from these fees, I was told.
On the other hand, if you try to cheat by exchanging only cash, the fee up to now will be deducted when you use your guild certificate somewhere afterwards.
Well, since trust is vital for a commercial guild member, just by cheating or getting a rumor going, the business will be lost.
That’s why Milia told me that there are almost no companies that do that kind of thing.
The assorted fruit platter is a luxury item because it includes mango, pineapple, and melon, but it does not incur a commission.
Milia taught me a lot of things, but there were many things that Ginjiro, who has no common sense in other worlds, could not understand.
I think this is an issue for me, so I will continue to ask Milia to teach me and learn from her.
