Daru began selling instant noodles at the price of one silver five bronze or if in rupiah to 15,000 rupiah per pack. He sold it for five times more than the purchase price, making him reap tremendous profits. (note: instant noodles in the author's territory cost three thousand)
"If you want to cook it, you can go to the kitchen. Especially today I allow you to do it. But in the future, you can cook it in your own homes" Daru said. Daru said it because he wanted to make it clear that he did not intend to make a restaurant. Lyd as the representative of the Blue Star Restaurant smiled because of it.
The representatives who had obtained instant noodles were flocking to Daru's kitchen. Leaving some people who regretted being too full after eating the dishes on the second floor.
"For those who are still here I will explain other products ...," Daru took a bar of soap and showed it to the representative in front of the counter.
"It's called soap, a magical thing that makes your body fragrant and your skin soft. If exposed to a little water becomes slippery, but do not abuse. How to wear it stay rubbed into your body when you shower. Do not forget to rinse your body when you finish rubbing this. Frey, try it in the bathroom" Daru said.
Frey excitedly nodded and grabbed a bar of soap and rushed to the bathroom.
Shortly after, a fragrant smell was smelled when the bathroom door opened. Frey came out of there with a sparkling face.
"This is awesome! My skin became smooth" said Frey, whose entire body was still wet.
All the men's eyes were on Frey. Their faces were flushed and Daru was no exception.
It's too erotic, Daru thought.
"Ehm .., like that," said Daru trying to calm himself.
"That's amazing! Imagine if you take a shower using this and wear perfume, flower garden walk!" said one representative.
"How much?" add that person
"Two silver five bronzes per rod," Daru said.
Even if the price on earth is very expensive for a bar of bath soap, but for people who have never seen anything of the kind consider it cheap.
Daru also explained all the items in his store, and almost everything in the storefront has been sold out. Not felt, the sun was setting.
"I've explained everything I've sold here. I hope you will visit my store in the future" Daru said.
"Oh, and please spread the word about my shop that has been opened to everyone in Moon City. Don't worry about my inventory, I have more supplies than you think" Daru added with a smile.
All the representatives smiled and took turns shaking Daru's hand as he said, "meet you."
When it was Lyd's turn to say goodbye, Lyd brought his face closer and suddenly kissed Daru's cheek saying, "I'm waiting for his cooperation, Mr. Daru".
Daru slightly blushed and replied, "Sure Miss Lyd,"
Lyd is not as beautiful as Frey, but his body shape can win thin when compared to Frey. Moreover, the clothes that Lyd was wearing right now were indeed too "inviting".
Frey who saw Lyd's behavior was looking at him sharply.
You brainless baboon. The couple of people you kissed are here. I've never even kissed her. Where's morale? Have all the logical thoughts in your brain flowed into that fat lump in your chest? As long as I live, I will continue to curse you! thought Frey.
Lyd only smiled faintly when he saw Frey. Then he went out of the store towards the teleportation portal.
Now it's Ronald's turn, the Representative of the Crec Trading Company who wants to shake Daru's hand. Ronald's expression was like he wanted to say something but he could not get out.
Daru thought that Ronald wanted to say something about the secret business of selling slaves to other Kingdoms that Daru knew about. Slavery exists in this world, but the rules are very strict. Slaves who come from the citizens of a Kingdom should not be sold to other Kingdoms. If caught, slaves, sellers, and buyers will be severely punished.
"Calm Mr. Ronald, I will not do anything that is not in my favor, not even impossible to cooperate in the future" Daru smiled.
"Mmm not that ...," Ronald said.
Daru frowned because his guess turned out to be wrong.
Then, Ronald continued, "Did Mr Daru sell chickens? Hehe." Ronald's breath sounded heavy when he said that.
He's the guy! thought Daru.
"Mmm .., Mr. Ronald .., That ... Please respect your wife .., hehe," Daru said.
Ronald lowered his head and walked out.
"Mr Verlin, Miss Rennesia, if you don't mind, please stay here. I want to talk to the two of you" Daru told Prince Verlin and Princess Rennesia.
"Of course Mr. Daru" said Prince Verlin.
All the other representatives had already walked out of the store, leaving Daru, Prince Verlin, Princess Rennesia, and Frey.
Daru let everyone sit in the small chair in front of the counter.
"I would like to ask you about the information you get from the traitors of the kingdom" Daru said. Daru could have checked out Islagram, but he did not want to be seen as someone who was easy to get information on.
Prince Verlin began to tell me everything they could. Although the information was confidential, Daru and Frey were already considered good friends of the Royal Family.
Prince Verlin told me that the evidence of the five Noble Branch Families involved only stopped at them, there was no evidence whatsoever regarding the Core Nobles Family involved. Although King Vanir was also convinced that his younger brother was the mastermind of the Princess' abduction, there is no solid evidence to support the allegation.
"Then how did Mr Daru find out that my uncle wanted a coup?" ask Princess Rennesia.
"My information network is very wide, I can tell the movements of a person only by his name, but I can not provide evidence. Please tell Mr. Vanir to be careful" Daru smiled.
"I'll tell him" said Rennesia.
"Oh, about the Teleportation Portal, the kingdom can maintain and withdraw tax fees from its use" Daru said.
"Didn't Mr Daru ask my father to make Sarren Hill tax-free?" ask Rennesia.
"Yes right, but I put him inside the capital. It's just that, the taxes withdrawn are not too expensive and please make sure no fugitives or bad guys are using the portal. I will also close the portal from midnight until sunrise."
"Then I will tell my father."
The four of them also talked about everything, starting from the Princess of Rennesia who was still a little traumatized by the hill of Sarren, Prince of Verlin who had the fiancee of a princess from the Kingdom of Morin, who was still a little traumatized, until Frey wanted to curse someone.
As Frey recounted that, Prince Verlin and Princess Rennesia laughed except Daru. He knows what's going on.
He was behind me! thought Daru.
Shortly afterwards Prince Verlin and Princess Rennesia bid their farewells home, leaving Daru and Frey in a tense atmosphere.
"Fre-"
"Shut up and buy me an artifact that can curse someone" Frey said coldly.
"You're kidding, right?" asked Daru nervously.
"I've never been this serious. Oh. .., are you trying to protect that baboon?" Now Frey's gaze turns like a lion finding new prey.
"Then you can buy a curse artifact for yourself" Frey added.
I have to melt her heart, Daru thought.
"If you're jealous, do the same thing Lyd did to me. Besides, I'm sure you don't have the courage" Daru said.
Frey stood up and approached Daru.
Come Daru! Do it like a man! Don't disappoint a woman in front of you! thought Daru.
He settles his heart and grabs Frey's cheek with his hand and kisses Frey's lips. The kiss lasted about 10 seconds, long enough for Frey and Daru who were immersed in his romance.
Deg deg deg
Only the sound of their heartbeat disturbs their romance, even small insects will think twice about making a sound.
When the lips of the two of them bid farewell to each other, Daru and Frey lowered their faces that were currently still close together.
Maybe I should ask the author to add a romance genre to this novel. Hahh, thought Daru.
"Ehm, we have to clean up, the upper second floor is too messy" Daru said as he gave his best smile to Frey.
"Good!" frey said as he tilted his head and smiled sweetly.
The two of them also cleaned the second floor which was still full of dirty dishes from the banquet this afternoon. They also brought the chairs to the lower second floor, storage, and replaced them with a set of sofas. They also arrange the items they will sell for tomorrow, considering the storefront on the top one floor is too empty.
"It's done!" Frey shouted while stretching his waist.
"Good work" said Daru sembark smiling
"I'm going to Moon City, you want to come?" he added.
"Why do you want to go there?" ask Frey.
"Certainly celebrate today's results. We get more than three thousand gold coins" Daru said.
"Emm, why is ki-we ti-ti-don't celebrate here be-be-be-be-double?" ask Frey while pulling the tip of Daru's clothes.
Romance attacks really happen in this novel! shouted Daru in the heart.
Glug.
"W-what do you-you want?" tanya Daru stammered.
Frey approached Daru, brought his face closer, and said, "Instant noodles."
Jedarr
The sound of lightning sounded in Daru's mind.
I lost to instant noodles, thought Daru.
"Let's make it together" asked Daru.
They also headed to the kitchen together.
....
Meanwhile in Moon City, news of the store in Sarren Hill had already started its business spreading rapidly. Although there was an incident where the Government had captured five Royal Branch Families, but few people were bullying them, they were more interested in cigarettes.
Bull's Horn Bar, Moon City.
"I'm going there tomorrow to try a cigarette" one customer said.
"But the price is quite expensive .., one gold coin for twelve bars. My income alone is only twenty gold per month. If I could, I'd buy per stick" said another customer.
"Haha! Expensive? The price is comparable to the taste. I'm telling you, something as good as that is too cheap for a gold coin to pack" said one of the men behind the counter. He is the owner of Bar Bull's Horn. He was also present at the opening of Sarren hill shop this afternoon. His name is Klein.
"Is that really Mr. Klein? But still I don't have much money" the customer sighed.
"Of course it's true! There are also other items sold there and are not inferior to cigarettes. Bring some gold coins tomorrow, you'll know for yourself" Klein said.
"Hey, you're my friend, right? Lend me some gold coins" said the customer to the person next to him.
"We are friends when I am in trouble. But not if you're in trouble."
"Haaa!?"
They both got into a mouth fight.
"Daru ... huh? I'm sure the business in Bukit Sarren will grow rapidly. I started thinking about setting up a branch there," Klein murmured.
.....
"So why did you invite influential people here this afternoon?" ask Frey while eating his instant noodles on the upper second floor. Frey hasn't told Daru about his goal.
"You didn't ask, I thought you understood. Hahh, I invited them over because with their support, no one will antagonize me in the Resia Kingdom. Yes although I have connections with the Royal Family, but preventing is better than treating. And I'm sure the Noble Core Family will cause trouble one day" Daru said.
Frey placed the now-empty bowl on the table and leaned against Daru's shoulder.
"Whoever it is against you, rest assured I'm always on your side, Daru" Frey said.
"I believe it" said Daru as he wrapped his left hand around Frey.
Both of them were silent with shame. Suddenly Daru remembered something.
"Oh, I have to buy supplies. Supplies on the lower second floor are thinning" Daru said while removing his Smartphone. After the items on the lower second floor were transported towards the storefront, the amount became few. Daru was on guard if only tomorrow there would be a huge wave of customers.
He only spent 25 million Rupiah, as his money is currently limited.
"Mas, who's that beside? Wife?" tanya Veux who stood behind Daru and Frey with a pile of packages.
Daru and Frey turned around and saw Veux there. Frey was surprised, even though he had seen Zoref suddenly disappear, he had never seen Veux deliver packages, let alone those many packages.
"Do the two of us look like a couple?" ask Daru.
"Nights cuddling spoiled, what else if not husband and wife?" answer Veux.
Uhuk uhuk
Daru and Frey pretended to cough and then moved away from each other.
"Oh right? If not a wife, get married soon. By the way, sign it" Veux said as he handed him a letter of receipt.
Daru just kept quiet and signed it immediately. Veux left after his business was done.
Right now, the atmosphere is very awkward. The two of them do love each other, but the author has not thought to add the genre of romance to this novel.
Bangke's author! thought Daru.
"Ehm, Daru, let's move those things down to the lower second floor," Frey invited to try to melt the atmosphere.
"Yes .. yes ..., come on," said Daru.
