Villainess Is Changing Her Role To A BroCon
chapter-46

……Ah, I see, of course, it’s because of the freak old hag!

You’re not just bullying mother, you’re also doing that!

And you, brother, I’ve been aware of it for a while, but I knew you were made to do the work of the dukedom even before the death of your father and the old hag.

You’re the kind of old lady who should have been eaten by a magical beast and turned into a piece of shit!

….Calm down, ne. The old hag is not of this world anymore. When a person dies, they are being sent off to be judged by Buddha.

There’s no Buddhism in this world, though.

But let’s calm down. What’s wrong with me?

And you want me to promote the brilliance of jewelry?

It’s like a tourism ambassador promoting a specialty product…… Can a villainess be a tourism ambassador?

Halil then added.

“As for large jewels, people would say that they would not be suitable for a young lady, but with a beauty as dignified as yours, I’m sure they will look great on you. I will prepare a gem that will make even the Empress envious, so please do use it as you please.”

After thinking about jewels, he then continued.

“Your Excellency, the “Heavenly Blue” as you call it, is perfect for the young lady, isn’t it? My Lady, please take this as well. It’s about time for the Empress to come up with the next fashion trend. This is a good opportunity for you to determine what the next trend is.”

Halil-san, you’re really trying to use me as a free billboard.

I don’t know what “heavenly blue” is, but I’d be happy to help you. But you can’t expect it to work just as planned…

“Ekaterina, you don’t have to use the jewel or the Heavenly Blue if you don’t like it. You can do as you please with them. If you like the imported silk fabric, buy as much as you like. If you want to entertain the Empress, it’s safer to do so as well.”

Alexei suggested, then explained about the empress.

“It was the Empress who started the trend of imported silk fabrics. Her family’s home, Yurisein, is located in an important port for East-West trade, so it will be prosperous if imports flourish. But not only that, the amount of imperial products exported to the east has also increased, benefiting the entire empire. She is a wise one.”

“Oh my……”

I couldn’t help but marvel at Alexei’s words.

“I understand that she is attracting merchants from the East by making high-margin silk textiles popular. The fabric alone would have left a void in the holds of the cargo ships, so they would have brought in other goods that could be sold in the Imperial Kingdom.” (Ekaterina)

He then told me the details about how goods from the port are distributed in the Empire and at a slightly lower price, along with the high-margin silk fabric, making it a prosperous trade.

Along with how the Empire’s goods are being circulated when they return to the East, increasing the Empire’s export.

Hmmm, Her Majesty the Empress is very talented.

In my previous life, the ideal Empress was a princess of the Warring States period, or a woman of Renaissance Italy, who could bridge the gap between her parents’ family and her marriage family, and make both thrive.

“What a splendid thing she has done. She has revitalized the economy by leading the fashion in costumes, which is a natural thing for an empress to do. She is the epitome of what a person in the position of Empress should be.” (Ekaterina)

“…Ekaterina-sama, you understand that instantly.”

Novak exclaimed. Is there any other 15-year-old girl who can instantly understand this level of information?

This is because I’m a retired woman, and I’m also a Systems Engineer who has developed commercial systems such as logistics systems and ordering systems, and I like to watch economic documentaries a lot.
