《The Villainess just don't care ~》Chapter 7.
Advertisement
3 days have passed.
I was at the capital with Mary and Rufus.
I'm currently looking for a building suitable to be the ice cream parlour.
We brought a good looking building. It was quite expensive but I have the Duke as my investor. I asked Mary to decorate it. I recently found out Mary's hidden talent she's great at internal designing.
After that we went to the chrysanthemum trading house.
"John!"
"Mylady" he did a respectful bow.
"How's the work?"
"Since we are all working we'll be able to finish making hundred ice boxes by tomorrow"
"Great! Now I need you to give me five iceboxes"
"What? Why?"
"I'm opening an ice cream parlour.. You guys are invited too"
"Yes, thank you Mylady"
Everyone there thought that ice cream parlour was in fact eyes cream parlour and they thought that they'll be getting an eye massage.
"John, do you know anyone who's good at cooking or someone who can cook?"
"From the back alley?"
"yes"
"There's a few"
"Alright I need you to bring them to me.. Don't worry I'm planning on hiring them"
"Alright Mylady"
"Mark, we'll be opening our store tomorrow so make the preparations for it"
"Of course my-lady"
I feel like I'm a leader.
On the way back home in the carriage ~
"Mylady, surely you aren't hiring the people from the back alley to work in the parlour are you" Mary asked nervously.
"I am"
"What? Why?.. You could've just brought someone from the Duke's mansion or some professional chef"
"I know Mary.. The point is not just about selling ice-creams but it's also about giving job to the unemployed. We have seen the condition of people in the back alley. Even the government officials are turning a blind eye to them. We can't just let them be. We have to give them a decent life "

" Mylady... You really care about the people *sniff*.. You should've become the crown princess "
" well.. It's his highnesses loss "I shrugged.
" I feel like it's the loss of the empire " Mary said with tearful eyes.
" Stop crying now Mary. We can't tie ourselves to people who don't want us. And genuinely even though I was really hurt before I'm alright now "
" Really? "
" yes. It's all because of you, Sir Ballad and.. my father.. You guys made me feel better "
" Mylady ~" Mary stopped crying and smiled happily while hugging me.
" There, there " I softy patted her head.
The next day (the grand opening)
Today is the day.
I'm currently in the carriage on my way to the capital.
I'm wearing an orange dress and a mask which resembles the chrysanthemum flower.
I'll be hiding the fact that I, lady Salvair is behind the chrysanthemum trading house.
I'm currently meditating.. Sort of..
I'm recollecting all of my experiences as a sales executive.. My experiences when I was working in the sales department... The times when I had to manage a difficult client.. The presentations.. My part time job as a high schooler..
All the Gods of Sales please guide me..
Alright.. Now, I'm ready..
Our carriage arrived at the capital.. The carriage was designed as a chrysanthemum flower.. It was to attract everyone's curiosity.
The front side of the trading house was already bustling..
*kaboom*
Wow.. They even arranged fireworks..isnt that a bit too much?
I got out of the carriage.. Everyone was staring at me.. Some already started gossiping.
I walked towards the front. Carter handed me a mic. It's weird that they have mic that works with magic but they don't have refrigerators.. yet..
"Ladies and gentlemen" I changed my dialect

"Everyone must be wondering what we are selling in this shop"
"It's a new product and it's...."
"An icebox!"
The murmurs have began.
"So.. What's an ice box?.. It looks like a box doesn't it?"
"Can someone guess?"
"beautiful lady in blue"
"me?"
"yes you right there"
"Beautiful Lady.. What do you think is an icebox?"
"A box which gives us ice.. I don't know.."
"Your answer is almost correct.. Infact it is correct.. It does gives you ice if you put water in it"
"Now what's the use of producing ice?"
"Ice can be used in drinks and many beverages.... Also.. There is something more to this icebox than just producing ice"
"What can that be?...... Let's see.....How much of food is everyone wasting every day?.. A lot I tell you.. Now is there a way to preserve food... Yes there is you can store your food in the ice box for a long period.."
These nobles are beginning to loose their interest. It was expected as none of them care about the food they waste.
" We all know the Winderwurt dukedom... "
Aha.. Everyone's listening..
"we've seen the way they treat their servants.. They are known as the noblest of all.. They save their food and don't eat luxurious food everyday" please buy it please buy it.
"Their chefs are also marvelous"
"The chefs of noble households are struggling everyday with the food they have to prepare.. How about us as masters lighten up their work.. Just like anyone from the Winderwurt duchy would do.. Then we too can become the noblest of all nobles" come on buy it you guys.
Alright let's go to the next phase.
"We are currently meeting someone who works as a chef in a noble household"
"Tell us sir. How's your work?"
"Let me tell you it's hard to buy groceries everyday. Did you know the price for groceries, meat and egg have increased drastically in the shops because of our purchases?. Commoners can't even afford meat at this stage. I hope everyone can uphold the noblese oblige and be like Winderwurts "
That was a critical hit.
Why?
Cause the Winderwurt dukedom is the most powerful dukedom in the Rultaz empire. Everyone look up to them with awe and admiration. They are on a different level.
There's also one thing.. No one has ever seen the heir of the dukedom.. The Winderwurt's seclude themselves from the rest of the empire... They don't even want to associate with them.. That might be why they hid their heir.. But I know where he is...
" Let's see how we can use an icebox.. It has a small opening where you can insert magic ice stone..and viola... The ice box will start to work "
" An ice magic stone can used for two months besides ice magic stone is quite cheap so this is quite profitable "
" Also.. For our first time selling this product we'll be giving magic stones that can be used for half an year for free! "
Everyone is hesitating..
I nodded at Carter.
" Me!.. I want one.. Here's the money "" it's mark disguised as a nobleman.
When Mark came first the rest of the nobles came flooding in... Finally..
We sold out everything and even got a nice sum of money..
It's all because of the blessings from the Gods of sales.
