I’ve asked Ein-san and Jutia-san to promote our tea, so they will recommend it to other tea enthusiasts. Is this all I can do for the time being? No, there are many other Six Kings and Executives that I can recommend to, but if I do too much promotion, it could lead to things becoming too big of a burden on Anima and the others.
As for Ein-san and Jutia-san, the subject was decided after consulting with Anima and the others, and if we are going to try promoting our tea to other people, I think I should also consult about it with Anima and the others before deciding.
The general sale is apparently scheduled to start next month, and they’re about to begin widespread advertising…… I don’t know how well it would sell at the moment, but since Ein-san and Jutia-san gave our products high praise, I think it would turn out pretty good.
At the moment, Anima is selling wholesale to several referrals, including Mikumo Trading Company, who have contact with our company, but she also said that depending on how well our products sell, it might be better to set up a dedicated shop.
[Do you haaaaave some worries in miiiiiind?][Eh? A- Ahh, rather than worries…… I was just thinking it would be great if I could do something more for the new brand……]
Hearing Illness-san’s voice, I responded. I’m currently having my hair cut by Illness-san, and she, sensing that I’ve been thinking about various things, asked me about it.
While deftly using the comb and scissors in her hands, Illness-san tidies up my head and speaks with a gentle voice.
[I understaaaaaand how you feel. I’ve alwaaaaaays been leaving such things to Anima-san until noooooow, so being able to cooperate with her noooooow, we couldn’t help feeling very motivated, riiiiiiight?]
[It certainly is rare for me to be involved in this kind of thing, so I’d like to do more. On the other hand though, forcibly intervening might end up with me just causing more trouble, bringing me to a difficult position.]
In fact, since it’s Anima we’re talking about here, she’ll let me take part in as much as I want to do. Knowing that I’m inexperienced in these matters, she has already incorporated measures to handle it in case I make a mistake……
In reality, it’s one thing if all I’m doing is just advertising, but when it comes to sales strategy and product development, I, a complete amateur, have no place to intervene. What I would come up with would probably be something that’s just a matter of course for Anima and Caraway, and there’s almost certainly no area where I can be of help.It’s precisely because I know this that I’m feeling distressed.
[In that caaaaase, I have a suggestioooooon.]
[A suggestion?]
[Yeeeees. Why don’t Kaito-samaaaaa think of an original bleeeeend? The tea leaves Nebula made this tiiiiiime, it can change its taste veeeeeery diversely, so wouldn’t it be very interestiiiiiing to try various combinations to find the oooooone that Kaito-sama thinks is the perfect bleeeeeend?]
[I see…… That does sound interesting, but will that work?]
[If it’s not too much troubleeeee, I shall assist youuuuu.]
[That’s really reassuring…… but is Illness-san available?]
[Yeeeees. I’ve been pretty busy latelyyyyyy, so I have a lot of time on my hands noooooow.]
Perhaps influenced by Nebula, Illness-san’s work abilities have increased significantly, which is something Ein-san noticed as well…… using that mysterious “Maid Power” metric system of theirs.
If Illness-san, who could calmly deal with dozens of times more work than an ordinary maid, has further increased her abilities…… It’s frightening to think that even with a massive amount of work, she still seems to have some free time on her hands.
However, it really would be reassuring if Illness-san cooperates with me. Even though I’m unwilling in this matter, it seems I have quite a bit of recognition among the nobility, so even if I don’t directly mention my name, using my initials or something like that might make them realize it’s my original blend. If I can come up with a good combination, it might help with the product development.
