“I spent 2,000,000 pence on raw materials because I was rushing to buy them.”
The cost of raw materials alone is 2 million pesos.
On top of that, if you calculate distribution costs or the cost of mobilizing wizards, the cost goes up.
If it doesn’t sell, it will pile up as a loss.
Rune spoke even more worriedly.
“Also, the money. You got a loan from a bank for chogori, right?”
chogori.
Raymond did not borrow money from Lady Rose’s bank this time.
It was because it was embarrassing to borrow Lady Rose’s hand any longer.
‘... ... Already astronomically indebted. I would have nothing to say even if I was sold to a shrimp fishing boat.’
Raymond almost fainted when he checked the amount of debt he owed to Lady Rose.
It was because he had to spend money for one reason or another in the Peninsula Kingdom and incurred additional large debts.
I won’t tell you the exact amount. because it upsets me In fact, Raymond also closed his eyes while calculating, so he didn’t know exactly.
Anyway, it was a huge amount.
‘Oh, it’s okay because I’ll pay it back soon anyway.’
Raymond thought while breaking out in a cold sweat.
Anyway, it was difficult to lend a hand to Lady Rose.
Instead, she borrowed from another bank, but unlike Lady Rose, who had an interest rate close to zero, the interest rate was staggering.
I took out a loan of 2 million pena, but the short-term interest rate was a whopping 20%.
Even compound interest, if you can’t pay back the money, the amount is supposed to go up exponentially.
‘As expected, the Peninsula Kingdom. What kind of vicious loan sharks are doing business with the name of the bank openly.’
Raymond trembled.
Normally, I would not have dared to take out a loan.
But it was fine.
Because Raymond has a cure for hair loss!
Two million pennies will be paid off in an instant and you will be swimming in gold coins.
“Rune, you are worrying unnecessarily.”
Raymond shook his head.
“There is no way that hair loss treatment will not be sold.”
Yes, it will never sell out.
Even if it’s 5,000 pennies instead of 1,000 pennies per tablet, people will line up to buy it.
‘Should I change my course at this point?’
It means a career path as a player.
Currently, he is climbing the ‘Tower of Medicine’, but he said that it is possible to change jobs when he wants.
‘I’m going to focus on making money for the time being. Let’s change it to Golden Road. I’m sure you’ll get skills that will help you make money.’
With that in mind, I opened the system window and selected it.
‘Former Golden Road!’
A message immediately surfaced.
[I have chosen the former Golden Road!]
[Qualifications determined! I analyze your commercial potential!]
Raymond put on a confident expression.
Last time, I got a ‘minus hand’ rating and failed.
But this time it was different. I’m already prepared to make a lot of money, so I’m going to get a ‘Midas Hand’ rating, not a ‘minus’.
however.
[Your commercial potential is ‘absolutely negative’! We recommend cultivating commercialism!]
[Job change failed due to insufficient qualifications!]
“... ... .”
Raymond kept his mouth shut.
‘What kind of nonsense.’
His pride was hurt, but he snorted.
‘it’s okay. I will prove that I can do well without the help of the system.’
Yes, swimming in a bathtub full of gold coins, I will shout proudly at the system. that you are wrong
All preparations had already been made.
“I set up a promotion to make sure.”
“A promotional event?”
“huh. Is that right, disciple?”
Christine appeared.
She was wearing an unusually elegant dress.
Her originally beautiful face shone with splendor.
“Yes Master. As you said, I prepared a banquet for nobles at the best hotel in La Pentel.”
Raymond kept his mouth shut.
There was definitely something odd about this.
The faces of the disciples also hardened.
Then, finally, the first guest came.
“Your Highness Lawrence!”
shouted the waitress welcoming the customer.
Lawrence.
He was the head of the Royal Faction and the first heir to the throne until Raymond came.
He entered the banquet hall with a gentle smile, just like the last time we met.
“Are you here, uncle?”
Lawrence was Raymond’s mother’s cousin. So the two decided to treat each other privately as uncle’s nephews.
“Yes, thank you for inviting me. I’m sorry for being late. however... ... .”
Lawrence looked around the banquet hall and tilted his head.
“Did I come at the wrong time?”
Raymond kept his mouth shut.
“that is... ... It’s not time to start yet.”
“Is it polite to arrive 30 minutes before the banquet and greet the host?”
“... ... .”
Raymond’s heart sank.
It made me face the reality I had been ignoring.
This was a strange situation for anyone to see.
“Who did Raymond invite?”
“Marquis Rodrigo and Archduke Gideon... ... And other nobles.”
“Hmm.”
Lawrence crossed his arms.
His expression darkened.
“Okay, let’s wait a little longer.”
Lawrence went and sat down.
But there was no change.
Even though it was time to start, no one came.
The manager of the hotel cautiously approached Raymond.
“... ... It’s time to start charging, what should I do?”
“... ... .”
Raymond couldn’t answer.
He turned his gaze to the banquet hall.
All kinds of rare dishes, splendid flower decorations, and a specially invited musical band.
All of that was left unattended.
The faces of the disciples who grasped the situation also hardened. Linden, who was carefully stealing the lobster, put her hand down.
“... ... I’ll wait another 30 minutes.”
“all right.”
But it was still the same.
no one came
Only then did Raymond have to accept.
Even if I wait for the next few hours, no one will come.
The reason this happened was obvious.
Finally, Archduke Gideon and Marquis Rodrigo began to check Raymond.
* * *
That’s how the banquet ended in the worst way without even starting.
‘I can’t forgive you.’
Raymond clenched his fists.
I checked and it was as expected.
Grand Duke Gideon and Marquis Rodrigo forbade their nobles from attending the banquet.
Even Raymond was very upset about this.
‘I spent 100,000 PENANA to prepare for this banquet.’
All the prepared food was distributed to the poor, but in the end 100,000 pence was blown into the air.
Money is money, but the wounds in my heart were great.
How much did he expect from this banquet?
It felt like a dream that was right in front of me had been trampled on.
The disciples were also greatly enraged.
But the problem wasn’t the banquet.
‘This means that he will seriously interfere with my work from now on.’
