Eh

I didnt understand what Tina was saying.

This 500 billion spina is my savings for Halt-sama.

My mind froze, so Tina politely explained it once again.

So I didnt misheard it, apparently.

Tina had worked hard and saved a fortune of 500 billion for me.

If Halt-sama needs it, I can transfer this whole amount to you.

N-No. No, I dont need that! T-that kind of fortune

Even if I belonged to nobility now, I spent my entire life of 17 years in an ordinary family in my previous life.

My sense of money was that of the commoners.

I got a feeling that I might go crazy if somebody suddenly gave me 500 billion such a huge fortune.

Thats why I refused, but

I-is that so

Tina was depressed.

Ah, s-sorry, Tina. Im super happy that you worked hard for me. Really, thank you so much.

Thoroughly flustered, I apologized and thanked Tina while gently caressing her head.

She did it for me, after all, even if it was a bit too much.

I couldnt just treat it dismissively.

It was only right that I should appreciate her efforts as much as I could.

Y-yes! I will do my best for Halt-sama!

Tina smiled.

I was glad, seemed like I wasnt mistaken.

Well then, I will keep the money for now like before, but if Halt-sama needs it, please do tell me. If the amount is less than the what you saw earlier, then it is possible to withdraw the funds immediately.

Y-yeah. Got it. Thanks.

Wait, I wonder, if Tina withdrew the entire amount, would it affect the economy of this world?

The price of commodities was relatively the same as my previous life, but the population was only a hundredth of my previous world.

Thats why the circulating money was quite few.

In terms of value, Tinas 500 billion should be the same as my previous lifes 500 billion. However, in terms of the worlds economy size, Tinas money should account for a bigger percentage of this worlds economy. And so, I felt that it would be a bad idea if we were to simply withdraw her entire deposits.

I had only studied very little about economics, so I couldnt really explain why it was a bad idea.

However, my intuition told me that itll be bad.

However, there are a lot of delicious foods available in this world at present.

That is correct. And the most popular among them is mayonnaise.

Mayonnaise is now the second most popular condiment for people in this world after pepper.

The sales are said to be quite good, too.

So thats how it is

Ah!

W-wait, perhaps

The person who popularized mayonnaise in this world was that you, Tina?

Fufu, thats correct, Halt-sama.

Tina patted my head.

Lately, Ive been the one who patted her head most of the time, but Tina used to pat me on the head like this in the past.

It had been a while, but it made me really happy.

Back to the story, so Tina was the one who popularizd mayonnaise, huh.

Then, Tina was already ahead of me when I initially planned to use mayonnaise to make a fortune back when I transmigrated here.

It was a bit frustrating, but if its Tina, then its fine.

So using the sales of mayonnaise, you were able to get the money that you should me earlier.

Yes but thats not the only reason.

What do you mean by that?

Do you know the H&T Corporation?

Of course.

I knew it, naturally.

Its the biggest trading company in this world, after all.

It was said that about 40% of the commodities being distributed in this world are sold by H&T.

So, what about it? Are you selling mayonnaise through that company?

Haruto and Tina Corporation.

Hm?

As I said, H&T is the initial of Haruto and Tina.

Huh?

I created that.

T/N: Lol is that a nod to the online shopping platform amazon? XD And Tina, goodness, youre so perfect!!!! Smart, wise, brave, kind, virtuous, gorgeous inside and out with the biggest melons in the entire Haltiverse, has a great business acuity, billionaire uwuwuw, how to become like you or at least have a waifu like you?!(Missed Chap 7/15)
