Retribution 3

[Please go through Larushia Trading.

I only distribute our products directly to one merchant per country. It would be a hassle to deal with multiple merchants in one country, wouldn’t it?

I decided to meet you this time because you came all the way from another country, but from now on, I would like you to talk to Larushia Trading, a Yamano product dealer in your country, about such matters……

As I mentioned earlier, I only deal with one store per country.

If the store goes out of business or the owner gets replaced, I will start the re-selection process all over again. I do not choose a store by its name, but by the personality and credibility of its owner.

So I won’t continue to have contracts with places that stores have taken over or someone took over the management rights. This was clearly stated in the contracts with the stores I do business within each country……] Mitsuha

An executive of the Enova Chamber of Commerce had come all the way to the Kingdom of Vanel to contact me.

At first, he asked his familiar merchants to act as an intermediary, but of course, all of them refused.

Of course, everyone doesn’t want to get involved with the plague god. If they try to mediate for him, they might be cut off from Rephilia Trade.

And next, I heard that he asked Rephilia Trade to act as an intermediary……

No, well, it’s widely known that goods from the Viscount Yamano’s domain were prohibited from being resold across countries, but that doesn’t mean that Rephilia Trade only deals with our products. Although our products were powerful weapons, she also handled a large number of ordinary products using those weapons, so it’s no wonder that merchants from other countries talked about having business with her.

In fact, I heard that the member stores of the <International Network of Women Business Owners> were making a lot of profit by buying and selling local products from their respective countries. They give each other preferential treatment.

Of course, they were also doing business with other merchants. If you’re going to run a merchant company, you’d better make a lot of money by carrying a lot of goods.

……But of course, as soon as he asked her to arrange a meeting with me, she said “Please ask Larushia Trade for that, they’re the Viscount Yamano product distributor in your country. I’m not in charge of that country.” And downright refused him.

Of course, I have instructed all <International Network of Women Business Owners> member stores to do so for these types of people.

Well, even if I hadn’t given such instructions, I don’t think any of the members would be stupid enough to be his envoy.

There was no way I would choose such an idiot as a member.

And the last resort chosen by the executive of the Enova Chamber of Commerce was to contact me through a well-connected nobleman.

Well, the nobles of this country probably don’t know about this matter, nor have they been notified by me or Larushia, so if they were offered a reward, they will at least introduce him to me. There’s no downside to this.

I don’t have any feelings toward the noblemen who only introduced them to me without knowing what was going on, and I didn’t instruct Rephilia to limit sales to those nobles. Therefore, I decided to meet them to show my respect for the noblemen.

…Well, that’s exactly what the executive wanted anyways.

So, that was the first thing I said when we met face to face and asked to get down to business.

Yeah, it’s obvious, isn’t it? I’m the mastermind behind all of this.

I had to deliver a final blow to the executive of the Enova Chamber of Commerce, who was still trying to make some kind of argument against my words.

[In the first place, to make a direct negotiation or request to the head of an aristocratic family in another country, not to the owner of the trading company, but to the head of the aristocratic family herself…

It’s outrageous for a lowly commoner to even dream of directly talking to the head of Viscount Yamano!

At any rate, from now on, the Viscount Yamano family will never do business with Enova Trading Company.

Return to your country!!] Mitsuha

This person was not one of the leaders of a big store that has several employees, but the big wig who unites them all, in other words, the No. 2 person after the owner of the whole Enova Chamber of Commerce. You can be sure that any nobleman will interpret it as “I sent you one of my employees, not the owner of the company”.

[Eh?……] Executive

Are? What’s wrong with the executive’s face?

No, that’s right, I knew he was in a hurry because his mission failed after a total rejection.

But it’s not just that, it seems……

Ah!

Maybe he didn’t know that I’m the head of the Viscount Yamano family?

Did the owner of that Enova Chamber of Commerce think that I was one of the daughters of the Viscount’s concubine, and that’s why he thought an executive as the negotiator would suffice?

Well, among the nobles and merchants in this country, it was believed that I am the daughter of a great noble or royal family from another country and that I was given one of the multiple titles that my parents hold. I guess that’s why they call me the <daughter of a nobleman>.

If someone who does not know the situation heard this, it’s not unreasonable that instead of the <daughter of a nobleman (with my own title)>, they’d think I’m the <daughter of a nobleman (parents’ title)>.

The nobles and merchants of this country would want to keep me here and take me in if possible. If that were the case, they wouldn’t bother to give detailed info about me to the nobles and merchants of other countries. On the contrary, I think they were expecting this guy to have a misunderstanding, be rude to me, and make a big mistake……

……But actions based on inaccurate information and self-assumption will always be fatal.

Especially in matters of nobility and commerce.

Well, you would probably not normally see a nobleman living alone in a rented store in another country…….

[That’s all I have to say. You may leave.] Mitsuha

I urged them to leave, but the executive and his two companions, who were not introduced, remained frozen and refused to leave their seats.

So I looked at the three people who were standing and waiting behind them, and they hurriedly grabbed the arms of the executive and his men and took them out of the store.

The three of them were from the noble family that had introduced the Enova Trading Company people to me. There was one person who looked like a butler and two people who looked like guards.

Even the ordinary noblemen were living in a mansion, yet I am the only one here living on the second floor of my store.

That’s why it was an understandable decision to send a handful of people to guard me and gather information at the same time. They’re worried about their position if something happened to me since <They introduced the three men from another country to me, a noble girl who was living by herself>.

……Yes, the three escorts were my guards, not the ones who came to visit me.

Well, I’ve got my own escorts behind me.

Four of the six kingdom’s guards from the guard station next door.

The daily interactions and offerings come in handy at times like this……

When I told them that <a merchant from another country was coming to make a complaint>, they immediately sensed that I, a girl who’s living alone, was in danger and asked me to let them in here.

Well, if a noble girl from another country were to be intimidated, threatened, or even violently attacked by a group of men next to the guard station, it would ruin the reputation of the guards. As the kingdom’s guards, I guess they can’t overlook that.

Therefore, the people who were sent by the Enova Chamber of Commerce as a plan to recover from the situation were unable to achieve anything and had to return to their home countries empty-handed.

While we were wasting time in this way, the rumor that <the Enova Chamber of Commerce had done something> was spreading rapidly, and now even people other than merchants knew about it.

……Every day, I go to the other places by teleportation to listen to the gossiping people in the city, rumor mongers like the aunts or stick around for a slow rice meal set at a restaurant that also serves alcohol……

And if the rumor spreads downwards, it’ll also spread <upward>.

Then that means…

=====

[A few more days before the executive returns…… Hopefully, he worked out a deal with the Viscount Yamano’s people……] Owner

The owner of the Enova Chamber of Commerce has heard that the representative of the Yamano Viscount family stationed in the Vanel Kingdom was still a young girl, and naturally, he thought that she was the daughter of the Viscount family or one of their relatives and that it was <a person whom they don’t mind being sent to another country alone>, <a person who would not be missed if anything happening to her>, or <a person whom someone would like something to happen to her and disappear>.

It seems that she was given a great deal of discretion in terms of trade, but the importance and position of a person were not proportional to or linked to a person’s abilities.

He thought so and didn’t pay much attention to that point.

[… But it’s a shame that rumors are spreading as if we were the culprits of the break-in banditry because of the petty tricks of the little girl from Larushia Trade……

If it’s just the commoners, we can handle it, but when talking about the upper echelons…] Owner

It’s not “as if” they were the culprits, they were “in fact” the culprits.

And then there was the arrogance of calling ordinary people <commoners> when he himself was a commoner.

He’s probably planning to get a title with the help of money. And he probably thinks he’s already a nobleman.

As long as you have money, it’s not impossible to become a nobleman. There are many ways to do it.

In the event that a lower-class nobleman is in debt, he can adopt you and take over his title on the condition that you pay all his debts and give him enough money to live without working as long as he doesn’t spend lavishly……

[Shall I use the guards…?

It’s for times like this that I’ve been sniffing around and handing out cash up my sleeve.

If I don’t use it, I’ll lose……] Owner

Heya!

I’ll be out of town for a month. But wait, isn’t it too sudden, you say? Well, yeah, because it is.

They just told me this morning (February 28) to pack up for at least a month worth of clothes and daily necessities. I can’t even refuse since I’m the one driving.

I’ll bring my laptop with me, but considering where we’re going, I highly doubt the mobile data connectivity, so no promises.

So, there you have it. See you in a month!
