Another World Net Shop Master - Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Rachel-san and Mirror

After the discussion at the Thomas Company, Ginjiro went to Elvis’s store.

I ask Harry and Milia to buy some vegetables at Grandma’s place, give them some money, and then we part ways.

Harry had a rental carriage, and nothing would start unless I forced him to be alone with her.

“Elvis, how are the preparations going?”

“Hey Ginjiro, I’ve been waiting for you.”

After being greeted with a passionate hug, we continued talking in the back of the store.

“Rachel-san is really looking forward to it. The guests seem to be of all ages, so I’m going to bring all the fabrics and samples I have here.”

Ginjiro agreed with Elvis.

“For now, let’s bring what available. The rest is for tomorrow.”

Ginjiro receives dress samples and fabrics.

Elvis says he will treat me to a drink next time, and promises to make a lot of money and have another drink with Manny.

“The preparations on my end are fine. I think the dress exhibition will keep the customers waiting because only Elvis can take measurements. So I’ve arranged for tea and cake, and I’ve asked Edel to bring some fruit to snack on. There seem to be a lot of customers coming as a couple, maybe the husband can get a drink if allowed.”

Elvis said that was too much, but he laughed and said it would be fun.

In addition to serving tea as a welcome drink, it might be a good idea to make a simple cocktail.

And Edel will bring lots of fruit.

Oh, and maybe sparkling wine for when the negotiations are concluded?

I have seen something like that on TV.

Ginjiro makes a note of a new idea.

“What do you do with the guest who don’t buy the dress?”

“I don’t know what to do.”

I looked at Elvis with a look that said, “What are you saying?”

“This time, it’s Rachel’s introduction, so I think a certain amount of people will buy it. They might buy it when we do another exhibition, and I think it would be good for both Rachel and Elvis to do something that would make them feel good about coming to the exhibition.”

“That’s certainly true,” Elvis nodded.

“I had an idea, how about making this into a necklace and giving it as a gift to all the female customers who come in.”

Saying so, Ginjiro hands Elvis a power stone he purchased from the Net store.

Elvis had made a handmade necklace with a single power stone.

Elvis himself mistakenly believes that power stones are expensive jewelry, but power stones are not that expensive.

Besides, if this necklace spreads, Elvis’s affairs will be less likely to be discovered.

Just be careful not to give a necklace with the same color as the eyes.

Don’t make the other partner think something weird.

Does Elvis like expensive stuff?　I asked, and I suggest Elvis make his own brand with this.

The dress also needs some decorations.

“Thanks, Ginjiro. I’ll make the necklace today, but if someone asks me to sell it, Ginjiro will sell it and take the money.”

I’m helping Elvis purely to support him, but if that’ s okay with Elvis, we both decided to do it.

I think I’ll buy some other ornaments that look good from the Net store.

Maybe there are people who might want them.

“Now just take these.”

Ginjiro hands him two large mirrors.

“This is awesome …….”

Elvis is surprised to see the mirror.

He says this is too much, but I tell him that it is not expensive in my hometown and that he should keep the mirror because he needs it to help his clients visualize themselves in the dress.

I also told him that I would give the mirror to Rachel as well, since she helped me out this time.

Because it would be better to have a mirror in the dance hall so that she can check her own dancing.

I headed to Rachel’s dance hall with Elvis to have a meeting with Rachel.

—

When we opened the door of the luxurious building, we found ourselves in Rachel’s dance hall.

With its high ceilings and wooden floors, even an amateur dancer like Ginjiro could tell that this was a good dance hall.

Rachel is playing the piano and two pairs are practicing ballroom dancing.

One of the pairs is a couple from the lumber company I met the other day.

They told me that they found ballroom dancing after they retired from their jobs and made it their hobby. I think it’s wonderful that they enjoy their hobby together.

After watching for a while, the song ended and I greeted Rachel.

Elvis exchanged a passionate hug with Rachel-san.

Rachel-san looks like a graceful lady, but she is a very passionate person in action.

Ginjiro also hugged Rachel-san, she smelled sweet and good.

Rachel and Elvis have a discussion for tomorrow, so the two couples decide to take a break.

Since we had stopped practicing for our own reasons, I asked Rachel to get hot water and prepare tea and snacks for them.

“Ara, excuse me. Is this the pound cake you served me the other day?　I can’t forget the taste. My son doesn’t believe me when I tell him I put sugar in the tea.”

Madam Lea, the wife of a wood merchant, is happily enjoying a cup of tea with sugar.

“I didn’t get a chance to talk with you at that time, but this tea is also very fine. There was a guy who knew a lot about tea at the merchants association in the Royal Capital, but this tea is definitely better than the one they served there.”

The husband, Carl, seemed pleased with the tea.

The other couple was also pleased.

“Tomorrow is the dress exhibition, right? Can I bring my son?　This cake and tea are definitely top-notch. I’m sorry, but I really want to show him how this tastes.”

Ginjiro was pleased to receive a compliment from madam Lea and told her to come tomorrow as there would be an assortment of delicious foods.

After a while, Rachel-san and Elvis with his guitar came over here.

“I’m so sorry. I’m going to have a talk with Ginjiro-san now, and could you all please dance for one song along Elvis’s songs on the guitar?”

Elvis bowed with his usual grace, and the couple stood up.

“Ginjiro-san, would you make me a cup of tea, too?”

Ginjiro replied, “Sure,” and prepared a pot of tea.

“That’s true. I asked without thinking about it, but it takes time just to have Elvis take measurements and decide on a design.”

It seems that customers will have to wait a lot more time at tomorrow’s exhibition, so I propose to make the lounge space a little larger so that customers can interact with each other there.

“I’m fine, but are you okay with it, Ginjiro-san?　If it’s going to cost more than you think, I’ll also pay for it.”

She was concerned about the money, but I tell her that is not a problem.

Rachel is looking forward to the dress exhibition and the dance recital, and is worried that money will be a problem and the recital will be cancelled.

“There is no need to worry about the money.”

I tell Rachel that we’ll have fun with the exhibition and the recital.

“Also I have this, if you don’t mind, could you use it? I think we can check our dance if we have a mirror.”

Ginjiro took out a dance mirror from his item box and hung it on the wall.

“Well what a thing. Are you serious?”

Mirrors are expensive things, and Rachel-san had only heard about them.

“I want to thank you for teaching me how to dance the other day. I would like you to teach me again, and if there is a mirror, I can check my dancing.”

Rachel is stunned, but I think it is better to have a mirror for dance practice.

With the help of Elvis and Carl, we installed a dancing mirror on the wall, and Ms. Rachel began to dance.

“Rachel-san is so beautiful ……”

Rachel-san is so sparkling that I can’t help but mutter.

Knowing that she was so happy was a good thing for Ginjiro.
