42 Episode 40: Busy air before opening



"""…………Delodelo~Delodelo~……Magda's cooking~""""What's the theme song of A minor?" Today, after a night of slumming, a selection of Loretta's younger brother and sister came to the kitchen of Yodamari-tei.  Give a lecture on how to make popcorn.  though… "What's wrong with Magda?""...a minstrel who used to come to town did this sort of course. Did the minstrel do something like cooking for 3 minutes?"...I was cooking while singing a dark song that almost cursed someone to death.""Oh, my God! The minstrel, and you who saw it and wanted to imitate it!""...I didn't have to pay for meals, so I was working in a kitchen in a bar on a short-term contract." There's a system in this world that works and pays. "...but there was a curse song coming from the kitchen... ...all the guests except Magda were running away.""Why didn't you run away?""... did you touch the koto?" I wonder if this girl's sensibility is okay..."...I want to make popcorn today, cursing someone.""Make it normal!" We've got permission to sell on the road, and we're going to start selling tomorrow.  Magda is supposed to prepare for tomorrow, but I'm going to tell you what's going on.  If you keep up with the trend, sales will keep going up.  You should be in charge of charge of cooking. "...everyone imitates Magda,"``Ah!' For the time being, we gathered the cooking team all year round because we use fire. It's dangerous for the younger group.  By the way, the older group goes out... they are salespeople. They handle money, they serve customers. I decided to ask the older group's responsible people for that.  That's why eight members of the annual group came to the Yodamari-tei kitchen as representatives.  I'm going to take the form of these kids mastering popcorn and passing it on to the next one. "Mr. ... yes,""'Derode~Roderode~'""You don't have to copy me there!" And it's my job to supervise the technology that's being transmitted so that it doesn't go wrong.  We can't afford to degrade the taste and other quality. "Magda, tell me exactly what I told you. You're not going to make strange arrangements in the future, either. It's surprisingly important that business doesn't change." How many times did you hear complaints from the chain store that ○○ has been changed? "We've revamped our popular traditional products to make them more affordable to more customers!"…. The companies that do this will lose performance. They'll be depressed to the point where they say, "Oh!? That much!?" Furthermore, no matter how hard they try after that, the customers who leave won't come back… I've always wondered why none of them would learn.  You can't do such a thing at the Yodamaitei.  Jeanette won't cut corners, so the rest of us will be able to defend ourselves against a drop in quality. "...don't cut corners, boys,"``Yes!' The hamsters of the year are very fond of Magda.  The church kids were soon in love with me... Magda is popular with children, isn't it? "...but playfulness is necessary."``Yes!'"Make it without thinking!" pinch Magda's ears with one's fingers  ...No, I feel sorry for Magda, like a fist? I don't have to hesitate to do it with Umaro. "...yah, palm...yah...yah...." I meant a little punishment, but there's something wrong with Magda.  The tail is bristling up and very thick.  Both arms trying to touch the head are bent half way and making subtle movements such as "Shall I touch... Let's stop..."  Munchy..."... of the beasts... of the ears... of the beasts... of the rub... of the rub... of the beasts.""What!" Come to think of it, I've had a little trouble scratching Delia's ears before... I've forgotten all about it. "Oh, I'm sorry... I'll be careful from now on."「…………」 Magda nods silently.  Wow... I'm embarrassed... I did something bad. "Oppa~" A hamster chases me in a hurry. "Do you want to touch your ears?""I won't touch it!""Why? You don't like me?""I don't like it... but I'm not close enough to touch my ears. Do you understand?" I can't say bad things to my children.  ...and it's often out of the blue, so the information you get from your children is...  So I carefully picked my words and said... I meant it. "... ...intimate.........." Magda's tail rippled next to her.  ...that's all right, isn't it? You're not afraid, are you? It's hard, Magda... because her expression doesn't show at all..."……………… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …""Magda!? I'm so sorry!? Are you okay?""...I don't mind. Everyday. Magda is an adult woman.""Okay. If you find out you've been so upset, don't tell the lie that you're lying the moment you throw up. The spirit is watching, isn't it in this city?""...the Spirit is...the Mabudachi,""Let's take a break! I'll be waiting for you, Magda!" I refused to give the hamsters a break.I'll return Magda to my room and have her come back when she settles down.  Oh... I really have to weigh myself... but I'd want to pick it if it were twitching in front of me, cat ears. I'd say it's impossible not to pick it. ... Oh, Neferry's fine. I don't want to pick the crowns, the red ones under my beak.  Magda was back in a few minutes. . . . ."...I don't mind anymore. I'll teach you properly... so Yashiro is a little... take it off." He was kicked out.  Magda is also a girl... and I feel sad that I am hopelessly Ossan... But it's a lot of growth compared to the days when 'Do you have pants?', isn't it? It's a pleasure to see Magda grow up a little?  By thinking so, I decided to distract myself from the sadness of being kicked out.  I went out to the dining room and found Delia and Marsha sitting in the corner. Delia is here today as a guest. "Oh! Jillo!""I haven't heard from you for a long time." A river-fishing guild bear girl and a sea-fishing guild mermaid are eating honey popcorn. "I'm sorry, Jiro. I'm so busy with my day job that I can't come to help you.""Don't worry. There are newcomers in, and Delia should prioritize her job.""That will help me,""But come and help me again when you have free time.""Oh my gosh. Do you like Delia?""Is that so?""Oh, no, I... I have a fan who is super-mini-made in Delia. They're asking me to tell them the day of the shift.""Oh, your fan!" Delia seems very surprised, but she has a relatively large following.  It's a rare cool style in a cute style of Yodamari-tei. "Marsha... I'm sorry. I have urgent business...""No! I'm in trouble over here." I'm a long‐time friend of mine. You can see everything Delia says. ... Well, I understand that. "Is there any problem?""Well, there's a little sewage...""Waste water?" A troubled Marsha starts talking, picking popcorn. "Because of this long rain, the muddy water is flowing out into the sea.""Even in the river fishing guild, we are trying to prevent muddy water from flowing into the sea...""Isn't it going well?""It was raining a lot.""And the muddy water, too... and the fruits of human physiology are pouring into the sea.""Physiological phenomenon" is essentially excrement.  In this world it is common to store it in fertilizer.  But the long spell of rain over the past month seems to have caused sewage to flow into the river from some of them. "If it's just a little bit, it'll be nice if the fish eat it. If there's too much...""I'm in trouble because the water in the river is dirty.""Well, we were discussing measures," That being said, it only looks like we're eating popcorn together. "Let me know if there's anything I can do. I'll do my best to help you." But I'll keep quiet here, saying, "I'm looking for a reward." "You're nice. Then I'll ask you to clean the net again. I'll bring it next time.""Then I want to eat popcorn!" Neither has anything to do with sewage, has it?  Oh, but. If the mobile sales of popcorn go well, could we extend the range to the river? Don't raise your expectations.  Oh, that's right. Let me use this. "Delia, are you working in the river tomorrow?""Oh! I'm going to pile up the sandbags a little higher with all the river-fishing guilds. It's going to rain heavily in less than a week." If so, I'll interrupt you there.  But it's a heavy rain... The good news is that the weather has managed to hold out these days. It will probably last for a few more days, so I'd like to leave some track record in the meantime.  If customers are looking forward to the resumption of sales while the rain is preventing them from selling on the road, the sales will explode when they resume.  Is the first three days a game? "Then take your time,""Oh, don't relax eating popcorn.""Thank you for your concern, Mr. Yashiro. But Delia, let's not relax and talk." For the time being, I don't seem to be able to help at the moment, so I'm leaving.  Get out of the dining room and go around to the back of the shop. It's past the toilet and in front of the woodyard.  There were four older hamsters, all male, who helped him. "Oh, there! The nail drives straight!""Yes!" No, you don't have to imitate my tone.  For better or for worse, the hamsters are honest. "How's everything going?""Ah, Mr. Jiro. I'm going to chip away. The two cars that are in a hurry will be completed by the evening."Umaro has a cart made for the mobile sale he promised yesterday.  A cart doesn't look like a rear car, it looks like a stall; it's a complete stall.  The right is the customer's side and the left is the clerk's side toward the handle of the stall.  It has two large wheels on its sides and stoppers hold the stall in place when it is sold.  From the bottom of the stall to the chest level, it is box-like, openable from the clerk's side, and the box is filled with goods and money. The top of the stall is roofed.  Eventually, I'd like to have a small stove built in so that I can cook outside... well, this is what it looks like at first. "What about the hamsters?""There's still a lot left. But motivation and guts are not that big, they're hard to train.""Good luck!""Beyond the leader!""Look, move your hands instead of talking!""Yes!""...doesn't it feel too innocent, for better or worse?" With a sigh, Umaro seemed to be having a little fun.  Is the succession of technology interesting after all?  Come to think of it, my stable master looked very happy when he taught me..."Oira is not sweet! I'll be ready for it!""'Yes!'" He's a reliable man after all.  As a human being, it might be a good match for our stable master.  As I was thinking about it, Magda popped up in the backyard. "... Jillo, are you ready?""'Huh!'"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh`You're not spreading a strange disease!' Fungus worm is raging. There are already four infected people... it's a serious situation.  It's a biohazard. "And what's the matter, Magda?""...I brought popcorn to everyone who worked hard.""'Huh!'""Oh! Magda-tan's homemade popcorn!""""...the sisters made it."「「「「「………………」」」」」 You're not feeling down. "...but all my sisters... ...smoothly.""```………………?`"Don't look like, "What!? No, but...."  What's wrong with you guys?"... Jillo, sample it.""Well, then I'll take one." The popcorn handed to Magda was warm and sweet.  though… "There are too many grains that haven't flown yet. But some are burning. The pan is sweet. Then, honey melts properly with butter and milk. This is too sticky to look pretty.""... oh... strict.""You want to serve delicious food in the best condition, right?""...agree,""Did you hear that?""'Yes!'""That's not it! No, that's the angel's clear voice, and that's important, but Jiro's words!"「「「「…………?」」」」"The Oilers, too, hand over their first-class carts in their best condition! That's professional!""'Yes! Jiro-tan, a real angel!'""Yasilo is not an angel! Excuse me for treating you like Magda!""Come on, five of you. Let's talk with our fists." It's all rude.  What a poor fellow you are, Umaro.  He must still be immature; otherwise he must be distorted.  It's absolutely deplorable. "Magda and Umaro. Get them ready by tomorrow.""What? Isn't it the day after tomorrow that you're going to start selling on the road?""Tomorrow we're going to have a test sale that serves as a final confirmation. I'm afraid we're going to be able to do it says."Oh, I see. Then I can actually move it and see if it's a problem.""...I'll try and see if there's any inconvenience." These two are in charge of coaching and counting on each other in the mobile sales of popcorn. "Tomorrow, I'm going to go to the river fishing guild as a rehearsal.""Is it Delia's?""Oh, it's a great place to practice, where you can earn money, and if you're rude, you'll see a lot of it, and if you fail, you'll be able to make a mistake.""... Mr. Yashiro, you're a good friend of mine, aren't you? You're going to lose your friends?" Hmm. If it's going to be gone, it means he wasn't a friend.  A friend is a guy who will lend you money unconditionally, at any time, under any circumstances. If there's a guy like that, I'll call him my best friend.  That's how the work went on at a rapid pace.  Although there have been many troubles with the preparatory training for the next day, I'll omit it because it's not a particular matter of note.  If I had to touch it lightly, Omero accidentally touched the honey popcorn that was supposed to cross to Delia... and was splashed out by the muddy river... ...that was just the usual daily trouble.It's very ordinary. It's the same as usual.  However, it seems that the preparatory practice was successful and the quality of the popcorn stabilized. It still takes some time to cook, but you can leave it to your sisters, and Magda should be able to adjust it well.  And the first day of opening day.  This is the debut of mobile popcorn stores, Yangdaljeong No. 2 and Yangdaljeong No. 7.  The reason for the second and seventh stores is... "If the quality is high in the second store, it will give customers a sense of security along with the image that the taste is protected, and if things go well, it may make them wonder, ""How great is the main store for this quality in the second store?""" The second store is destined to be compared, for better or worse, and by taking it the other way and improving the quality of the second store as much as possible, they raise the stock in the head office relatively, because people don't think the second store will surpass the head office.  And the seventh store.  This has the effect of making you think, "The seventh store means that there are even the sixth store."  Of course, you can name the restaurant as you like, so even if it's the third one, you can call it the seventh one.  If you have any complaints, go to the ramen shop, Jiro, and say, "Let Taro out!"  The name of the shop is quite strange. It's not a lie at all.  Still, if there's a guy who says, "I don't understand anything," or "That's a lie!" I'll say, "This restaurant is Yodamari-tei No.7 Main Store." That's the name of the restaurant.  I wouldn't care if someone misunderstood me.  Therefore, the second and seventh stores will make their first appearance today.  Jeanette and Loretta put shop work first, Magda is in charge of popcorn, and she has two sisters to help.  I, my brother and sister are going to the mobile store.  The sisters look a little nervous, but the younger brothers can't see any such gestures.  That's because Delia took the initiative in buying large quantities at yesterday's pre-opening. He also recommended to the members of the river fishing guild, saying, "Hey, buy me one, too! I'll give you what you can't eat up!"  The sight of good-looking guts swarming around and nibbling at honey popcorn was outlandish, but the sales were absolutely excellent.  The brothers and sisters were anxious at first, but when they found out that Delia was my acquaintance, the tension gradually eased to a normal conversation at the end.  When the popcorn was sold out, I was having a great time with Delia... ...and I'm glad she gave me a good ride.  My sisters were excited, shouting, "I've never done a high‐five before!"  My younger brothers were so carried away that they wondered, "Are we talented in business?!?"  Having experienced such a great success, the younger brothers gained confidence and came to this day. "Let's sell a million!""Sell a trillion!""Then a billion!" As you can see, it's a gathering of idiots. They might get a little carried away.  However, it is very good that you are not nervous about your first job.  It's no good business if you confine yourself to your customers. "...will it sell?""What if it doesn't sell at all...""Then we're fired?""Oh, I don't like that...""I don't want to..." be negative  They've always locked themselves in a slum and never had contact with anyone other than their family, and only a bad guy like Zoltal came in once in a while... and I don't even know how to feel about being bad about people. "I encouraged them, saying, ""Yesterday, I was able to serve all the people at the river fishing guild properly, so it's okay,"" but I was worried about dealing with the unspecified majority, saying, ""Yesterday, everyone was my brother's friend."""  I'm a little worried here.  I really wanted to follow the idiots and keep a close watch on them. I can't leave them alone. Let's say I'm going to follow them today. "Hey, fools, do it right without me.""Leave it to me!""I'll sell them all!""It's definitely going to sell!""What if they sell out soon?""Let's go hang out!""Oh! Let's go!""When they sell out, go back to the store and replenish them, yo! yo!""Ah!"`What!'`Oh!' Chop the heads of the three idiots and brace themselves.  Well, it's good not to be afraid... ...but there's a limit. "Oh, is this a mobile store?" I was checking the street stall in front of the shop when Estella came. Are you going to visit me as a campaign greeting card?  No, I just came here out of curiosity, I'm sure. "I've been wondering what it will be like since I heard you." Look at that'say!  Estella today isn't the dress she wore the other day, she's not wearing the usual man's dress, she's wearing a flippant miniskirt once in a while. ...I'm sure Natalia's going to stop it. "Oh, you've made a fine thing," Estella, like a junior high school student on a school trip to a sightseeing spot, touches a stall carelessly. She seems to be so interested that she opens drawers and knocks on the roof. ... Oh, stop it. Are you going to break it? Well, I'm sure it won't break to that extent. "You are the master of the Tolbeck factory,""Well, I'm glad you complimented me, but this time I'm doing better than Oira in my apprenticeship. They're the ones to be complimented.""'Toryo!? Thank you!'" He praises his subordinates. He is a good boss who develops and he is a good boss. "...what a bunch of hamsters!""'Ah! Magda, really angel!'" Didn't you guys say it in a conditional way?"Ma, Magda! What about you, Oira! You did a great job, too! You were repairing all the bad and sweet things without telling them! Just keep quiet to give them confidence! Actually, it's almost like Oira did it!" Hey! Even so, no, that's why you can't break it up!? I can't do this after all. No, no. "Everyone! Wait a minute!" Now Jeanette and Loretta come running side by side, pattering.  What, did they all come out after all? Well, we don't have any customers now. "Take this with you." What Jeanette offered me was a square box wrapped in furoshiki. "A lunch box?""Yes. Have some with you." There are two homemade lunches, each of which is as big as a box. They seem to be for the younger brothers and sisters. "I can only do this," No, no. That's enough.  Well, it was a blind spot to take your lunch with you. I mean, I completely forgot about my lunch.  As expected of Jeanette, you're very smart. "Can I look inside?" My sisters look up at me with sparkling eyes. "Hold on till noon.""Look~ That's it!" Oh, come on. I'm leaving now..."Well, Mr. Yashiro. That's fine. I'm just going to look." Sweet! Sweet Jeanette! That spoilt thing makes the kids selfish!"Don't trouble your brother!""... 'Big Brother'?" Estella reacts to Loretta's words. ... Come to think of it, when I met Estella in the house, she hardly spoke.  It's too much trouble to explain, so please take it into consideration.  Estella approaches Loretta, who scolds her brothers and sisters.  I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well, that's all right."  Oh, if you do that, you'll pass out again.""It's the first day of mobile sales, so why don't you do well?""Well... who is it?" ...what?"I'm a regular at this restaurant.""Oh, really? Nice to meet you. My name is Loretta, and I've been a waitress at Yodamari-tei since the other day. Nice to meet you.""I'm Estella. Nice to meet you." What!? Loretta is the norm. She fainted just because she met her eyes in the building, but now she's the norm.  "How do you do?""Yasilo..." Estella often beckons me.  As I approached, I was led by my sleeve into the shade of a stall. "It's a common occurrence,""...what?" Estella told me in a low voice with a slightly troubled look on her face. "There's someone who doesn't recognize me in my dress and myself in my present clothes as the same person.""No, you'll notice?""It's... ...that Jiro is... ...special... ...that's why... ...so, isn't it?" I'm special? Is it a sharp observation? But how come you're so close to me and you don't notice me? And you even gave your name. "I don't think it's possible that I hadn't looked at my face because of the great milk.""Why did you say it twice? Why did you emphasize it?" It's a matter of importance.  But no matter how fashionable he was..."I didn't notice Estella in her dress was too beautiful?""--!? I'm grateful that you compliment me, but hey, I wish you wouldn't say it all of a sudden. ... It's bad for your heart." Then what? "I'll compliment you now. You're pretty!" Which fool is he?"I have seen Delia, Umaro, and Mormat in their dresses, and they seem to have not noticed at all.""...they're all loose-headed men." I wonder if they can't help it. "But that's better for me. When you find out that I'm the lord's daughter, you're all shy, aren't you? I like the friendly relationship I have now.""Well, if that's all right with you," There's no need for me to go around and find out who Estella is. "Yasilo is good, after all right. Huh!? What's wrong with him!?"You don't have delicacy, but you're smart, and it's so comfortable to be with you. I'm glad you let Jiro see you."Uncharacteristically, Estella whispered with a ladyly smile. "Thank you," I wonder what it is.  I want you to stop doing this, for I'm out of shape.  I want to have a relationship with Estella where I can play dumb.  Like this... a little girlish gesture... I'm sure you'll be embarrassed beyond your character. "You don't need delicacy,""That's the most important thing,""Oh, I see," That's right. I like this kind of hate speech. "Oh!" Suddenly a cheer broke out across the street stall.  I guess most of them opened their lunch boxes and looked inside. ... Oh, my. They spoiled me.  With Estella's eyes on us, we go into a ring of excitement. "You're amazing!""You're not my sister, you're amazing!""Why do you go out of your way to say that!? I helped you a little too!" My brothers and sisters are peeping into the lunch box and yelling. "Did you open it?""Ah, Mr. Jiro," Jeanette smiled a little reflecting on my face. "I'm sorry,""What's wrong with you is "I'm sorry." You don't mean to apologize.  Well, I can't help opening it.  Shall I check the contents? "Well..." The brown food in the lunch box tastes good.  I think this is something that many people know from experience.  Jeanette's lunch box this time was brown all over.  It's a very familiar food to me, and if you ask me whether I like it or not, I'm sure I'll be in the food I like. It's a special item that Yodamari-tei also sells.  The lunchbox was packed full of honey popcorn. "I made it with the hope that it would sell like popcorn!" a proud Jeanette  Oh, I see. Didn't you teach him something fundamental? Don't put sweets in your lunch box. "Genet"."Yes,""... remake it.""Whoa!" I've assigned a side dish and had it delivered to Magda around noon.  ... Jeanette, what do you call yourself.........what a pity.  Such a flurry of activity has delayed my departure completely. I'm ready and well prepared.  All we have to do is sell and sell popcorn!"Well, let's go!""'Oh!'" With such a shout, we pulled out two stalls and left the Yodamari-tei.
