Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?

Chapter 486: A Pleased Looking Papeck-san

When I contacted the Papeck Company in Volton, Papeck-san said he would come to my house.

I was surprised by the merchants sense of smell, but I admire Papeck-sans light footwork.

Well, thanks to Takumi, theyre now the largest trading company in the continent. Hes still coming by personally.

I received notice that Papeck-dono will come first thing in the afternoon.

Today, Sophia, Maria, and, as rare as it was, Akane came with me to Volton. Sebastian informed us of todays plans after that conversation with Akane.

A bit after we ate lunch, Sebastian let us know that Papeck-san had arrived.

Papeck-dono has arrived.

Okay, please let him in.

Then the head clerk of the Papeck Company, Thomas-san, and Papeck-san were led into the room by Sebastian.

It has been a long time, Iruma-dono.

Long time no see, Papeck-san, Thomas-san. Sorry to make you come all this way.

No no, we had made the request because we wished to meet with you. It is only natural that we come to you.

After a bit of small talk, Papeck-san started sounding me out. It might be because Akane was seated here when she normally wouldnt be, so he asked if there was something up.

Iruma-dono, how are you these days? Have you invented anything new recently? Perhaps, if there is something, by all means the Papeck Company appreciate a deal with you.

Youre really buying quite a lot from me.

I smiled bitterly at Papeck-sans straightforwardness, but this is probably because I dont want all the flattery.

Naturally. Thanks to Iruma-dono, the Papeck Company had grown to be the leading company in the continent.

Papeck-san! Nice timing!

Then Akane butted in with a strange excitement.

Misato-sama?

Today, Maria and I have a proposition for you!

Akane talked one-sidedly about what she wanted to say as she glanced at the curious Papeck-san.

Hoh hoh, are these ready-made clothing targeted towards the slightly affluent class?

Regarding clothing stores, theres only the extremes- high class custom-made, or second hand clothing..

The Royal Capital had several stores that sell high class ready made goods, but Thomas, what do you think?

It would depend on the price.

Actually, the stores selling high class ready made goods in the Royal Capital were affiliated with the Papeck Company. They opened several stores on a trial run, but apparently, they were not making a profit at the moment.

A few days ago, we received word that a large quantity of clothing was sold in the shops, but could it be

That would be us. So those were your stores, Papeck-san. You have a good selection of childrens clothing.

Plenty of people buy fabric and make it themselves, and we are struggling because of the high costs.

In short, if the cost goes down, it can be a business, right?

Does that mean you have a method of lowering costs?

Fufun, Takumi, youre up.

Ohh!

Papeck-san and Thomas-san gasped excitedly and looked at me with expectant eyes.

Wait, that, why is Akane boasting all about my achievements.

haa, this is a treadle sewing machine, and this is the sewing machine magic device that runs on magic power.

Practice will be needed, but once youre used to it, its much faster than making clothes by hand.

I took out two kinds of sewing machines from my Item Box, and showed Papeck-san how to use it.

Ohh! We can make plenty of clothing with this! Well introduce it in the underwear workshop!

Master, the capital stores will not be in the red with this!

And so, my proposal is that I want to you to make my clothing designs. The clothes we normally wear are made by Maria and Kaede, so theres no problem, but I want the children in the Sanctuary to also wear stylish clothes.

Certainly, please lend us your capabilities, Misato-sama!

Leave it to me!

And somehow, Papeck-san and Akane were now linking hands.

In the end, I talked about clothing designs in another place, and included Maria when we began showing actual designs.

This, what do you think about it?

Well, both Akane and Maria seem to be having fun, so isnt that okay?

Thats true.

When I handed five of both types of sewing machines to Thomas-san, and he stored them in the companys magic bag and wrote a receipt.

We will test the sewing machines, but it is likely that we would place an order for additional sewing machines.

Understood. Ill prepare a larger quantity.

Leaving the excited Akane, Maria, and Papeck-san, Thomas and I signed patents and of course a provisional contract. Then we joined Sophia for tea.

Its great that Akane and Maria were having fun.
