"Thank you very much!""Well done!"　A lively voice echoes along the 42nd Avenue. 　The sisters bow deeply to the back of the leaving guest. 　In the meantime, the next customer will send in orders. "Now, two people, with the Souvenian Cup!""Oh, yes! I'm sorry. I'm home!"　The truth is, I'd like to keep an eye on it, but…it's been more successful than I expected. 　My sisters, who are not used to serving customers, are far from enough. 　There is still a long line in front of the stalls. 　Judging from the way things are going, the younger brothers seem to be in a state of confusion. 　I think I need to follow you tomorrow for today's for today. 　If there were any guests who felt uncomfortable today, I'll get them back tomorrow. For the time being, I'll concentrate on them today. It's better to leave them both half‐finished. "There's not much popcorn left, brother!""Run to Yangdaljeong and get some extra!""Ugh!"　I have a sister running at full speed.........fast!? Chocolate choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco choco ch 　I've found another unexpected side. "Huh, it's hot... Big brother, can you take this off?""No. It's unsanitary to get your hair in, isn't it? Be patient.""Uh-huh..."　When selling popcorn, sellers are required to wear triangles. Sanitation is the basis of restaurants. Nothing is more disgusting than having hair in your food. 　Besides, these guys with triangles wrapped around their heads are unexpectedly cute. There are guys who are glancing at their sisters and dyeing their cheeks. That's the effect. "Brother, I think I'm going to run out of the Superior Cup."When it's gone, the sales of the Superior Cup will be over. Please explain to the customers as soon as it's gone.""Yes!"　The Souvenian Cup is an original item that we have prepared. 　It's a wooden cup about the size of a cinema drink. 　This is something I made patiently out of wood, and frankly I'm proud of. It's so good that Jeanette ran around in tears when she saw the finished product with the brand of "Yodamari-tei." 　In this world where paper cannot be used wastefully, we could not sell it in paper packs like in Japan. 　That's why we use the sales method of having customers bring a container and putting popcorn in it. It's like an old tofu shop. 　However, some customers don't have containers or find it troublesome to go home to pick them up. 　I made this Subenia Cup for such customers. It's a little bit expensive, but it's a great deal to get even a cup. 　Incidentally, 'Subenia' means 'monument' or 'gift' in French, and it is a Japanese loan word with the English word 'cup,' but I'm sure they are good at translating 'forced translation magic.' 　The name comes from... well, don't ask. 　I was inspired by a dream and the name used in the magical kingdom. I want to show the people of this city the dream and magic. Ha ha!"Wow! My eyes are spinning!"　My sisters swirling around the stalls. 　The effort and cuteness of the movement create a good gap, which is well received by the customers in line. 　It won't take long for the hamsters to blend into the city. "Good luck,""You don't have to panic,""Yes! Thank you!"　The sisters smile broadly at the cheers of the wives waiting in line. 　This kind of contact must be enjoyable. 　The customer's response is good, and the sales are very good. 　The mobile sale seemed to have been the right answer. 　The only problem that came to light was that... my sisters are slow at calculating. 　It takes a lot of time to pay the change. 　Come to think of it, Jeanette wasn't good at calculating either. 　Since there is no school, they probably don't learn to calculate unless they are born into a merchant's family. 　I'll tell you next time... No, it's faster to make a change calculator than that. A table like "How much change do you get when you order silver coins?" can be used. 　There are a lot of things you can't tell until you actually try. 　But the hamsters are very good at memorizing. They'll soon get used to calculating. "It was delicious!""I want to eat again!""Yes, yes. See you later."　Such conversations between parents and children burst into my ears. 　The young brothers hug the Souvenian Cup with importance. 　When another child sees it, he asks me to buy it, saying, "I want it, too," and the parents give in and buy it. 　The procession calls for more, and the children's smiles attract more children. 　I've got a good run on the right track. 　This will only be a matter of time before Honey Popcorn takes root in the 42nd leg. 　Popcorn continued to sell, and only by the time the sun went down did the lines stop. 　Magda also seems to have been making popcorn at full speed. "S.........oh! They've all sold!""It's sold out!""I'm tired!"　The Suvenia Cup we had is sold out. 　Popcorn also sold out what Magda had given her, saying, "...no more." 　It's genuinely sold out. 　You'll have to ask Yaplock to add a lot of corn and honey. "Well, then, shall we go home?"``Ugh!'　Before they left, the faces of their sisters, who were almost crushed with anxiety, had a radiant smile on their faces. 　Confidence, fulfillment, and the exaltation of accomplishing something amazing are oozing out of my expression.With this, you can leave it to me tomorrow. 　I'll have to make a quick list of the changes after I get home. "I'm sure today's meal will be delicious.""Really?""Oh, you'll find out if you try it.""I'm looking forward to it!"　The sell-out made the stalls light and our feet light. 　At this rate, my younger brothers will get even more carried away. They should have sold quite a bit, if not a bit slow. 　Well, it's going to be a noisy dinner. 　What a thought, I set out on my way home. 　However, my expectations are very different. 　When I arrived at Yodamari-tei, I found the inside of the dining room filled with heavy with air. 　...what?"Ah, Mr. Jiro,"　Jeanette, who was standing near the counter, notices me and runs up to me. "What's wrong with this air?""That's..."　At the end of Jeanette's eyes were three younger brothers, surrounding the table and nodding deeply. 　They are the three of us who used to do mobile sales somewhere else. 　What happened?　Why are you so depressed?"Yasilo...... a little bit."　Estella approaches me and quietly takes me out, followed by Jeanette. 　I felt as if the heavy air had been shut off when I closed the door. "Will you take a look at this?"　When Estella said so, she pointed to the stall of "Yodamari-tei No.7." 　It's a stall used by my younger brothers. 　When I looked all over the stall, I realized that something had gone wrong. "...not selling?"　When I looked at her, Estella quietly agreed. 　There was a lot of popcorn in the stall box. 　And next to it is a huge pile of Subenia Cups. 　It's not decreasing at all. 　Were you scolded for skipping work and going out to hang out? Is that why you're so depressed?　I thought for a moment that... that it was impossible. 　But there should be nothing more interesting to younger brothers today than mobile sales. 　I've been practicing and studying a lot in the last few days, and I've been looking forward to this day. 　There's no way they'll give up their work. 　But then... Why?"They say that there were no guests.""Not one?""Yes... I heard you tried your best to attract him."　Jeanette shows a tearful look on her face. 　They must be heartbroken by the shock they suffered. "Was it a bad place?""That's not the case. It's the second most crowded street after the main street.""...what on earth was wrong with him?"　a dented ginet as if it were one's own business 　The problem of not being able to sell because it's a mobile sale at Yodamari-tei is not something for Jeanette, either... but that's not the way he's depressed. 　I'm depressed that my younger brothers are depressed. "... I'm sorry, brother,"　I was wondering what the cause was, when suddenly a voice came from behind me. 　Looking back, I saw three younger brothers hanging their heads side by side. 　with one's round eyes full of tears "...not at all...""...I beg your pardon."　... these guys. Have you taken it so seriously? 　You've got a lot to see, haven't you? "What's wrong with you? It's only the first day!? If you didn't sell today, you should do your best tomorrow.""But...""Don't worry! My sisters sold me like idiots. On the whole, I'm in the black. I just couldn't get a little customer at the beginning. There are days like that."　stroke one's despondent younger brothers' heads violently 　It's my first time serving customers. There must have been some unexpected problems. It must have been full of things that didn't go the way I wanted. 　Maybe we should have put the stalls together and looked after them all at first. We did something bad. "I'll go with you tomorrow. I'll sell you twice as much as my sisters and surprise you, won't I?""... yes.""Your voice is too small!""Yes!""Yes!""Yes!"　Well, it's aggressive, but it seems like you've got some energy. 　I'm not going to hold these guys accountable. I'm going to hold them accountable for the consequences. 　I hope they'll do their best 'well' and 'hard' work. 　I'll give you a little more energy for fun. "All right, Taro! That's what I told you last time! Are you ready?""'Yes!'""What about Jeanette!"``Popping!'"What about Estella!"「「「………………」」」"Oh, what!""Why, what is that watchword?""What's silent!? There must have been some way of saying it!""Now! Everyone, please confess together!"``...smoothly...ahahahahahahahah!'　The younger brothers burst into laughter. 　At last, my dark face was wiped out. 　That's right. You just have to hang in there tomorrow. "... Jillo... ...why don't we have a little talk?"　I wish I had tomorrow. "I'll tell you one good thing, Estella. It's not a discussion. It's a threat."　It took more than a dozen minutes to calm Estella, who gave me a dark aura, and my dinner was served very late. 　The next day, along with "Yodamari-tei No.7," we came to a wide street that intersected the main street. 　If you go all the way down this road, you will find the lord's residence. 　I see. There are certainly a lot of people passing by. "Where were you selling it yesterday?""There. It's that open place."　What my brother pointed to was an unobstructed open space. 　Is it the site where some building was demolished? That's all there was space left blank. 　It's true that setting up a stall here won't interfere with the passage. 　But I can's not working. "If you're going to set up a stall, you'd better go under the tree over there."　As I said so, I pointed to a fine tree standing beside the road. 　It's a large tree with a large, slender trunk. 　Theory is to set up stalls near such 'easy places to rest.' 　The shade of trees, the seaside, the place where the benches are placed, etc. are great. 　It's a trick to make people think that they should buy food at a stall and then rest. 　That's why I immediately set up a stall beside a big tree and start preparing to open a shop. 　People glancing around me come into view. 　They seem to be interested. Then the strategy is to them. 　Maybe I can give it a try...　I'll put some popcorn in the Souvenian Cup and jump out in front of the stall. ... You're not dancing, are you?"... now,"　Actually, I'm not the type to do this kind of thing... Well, I'll do anything I can if I'm told to do it... Who can tell me to do it? If there's a guy like that, I'll kill him and tell him to do it. 　I was off the subject. 　Why don't you try to imitate a pair of Uiro sellers? 　I took a deep breath and let out a loud voice resonating throughout my body. 　in a clear, echoing voice "Now, sir, ma'am and daughter on the road, and a cat to a dog! I don't know why I'm in a hurry, but I'll stop for a while and listen to you for a moment, and you'll soon be dancing your heart, and the good news will burst in!"　All of a sudden, people on the street and my younger brothers, who were preparing to open the store, stare at me blankly. 　keep one's head above water `Now, here's the rare Honey Popcorn to see and hear!'　......Ummm, no response. "... here. Take a look at it for now!"　Turn back and make a sales pitch. 　... my mentality is not strong enough to run alone in the cold air. 　But I'm not wrong because I got the attention... "My five-year-old daughter saw this and said, 'I'm going to treasure it.' I laughed at it, but, well, it might be pretty. What do you think?"　pick a grain of popcorn and show it to the audience 　Oh... children are leaning forward little by little at the feet of adults. "Next is the smell. Do you know this sweet, exciting smell?"　Slowly slide the Souvenian Cup in a large arc. 　The scent of honey emitted by popcorn incurs the children. "And then there's the sound." . . . . . . . shhhhhhhhhhhhh!"　After a good pause, he shrieks and silences the people around him. Everyone is breathing to keep quiet. 　In the meantime, I'll pinch a grain of popcorn with my front teeth.　and when he was in the spotlight he would bite it down in a momentarily????　with a snap 　--a pleasant noise echoed through the silence. 　Before I knew it, the children's eyes that had come up to my feet began to twinkle. 　All the children are two, four, six, twelve. Twenty‐four big eyes look up at me as if they were expecting something. 　I can't help it. 　Only this time, it's special."Do you want to try it?""'Huh!'"　All right. I got it!　It's already this way!　I'll hold the Souvenian Cup down to a height easy for children to pick up. 　The children's hands reach out to herd first. 　You can devour it to your heart's content and ask for it! "I want to eat more!""Stop it!"　It was a little hysterical, a little hysterical, that burst into my ears, convinced of victory. 　When you look at it, the parents of the children hold their children back and away from popcorn. "You mustn't eat that!""Because!""Come over here, all right!"an indescribable spirit 　The child was forcibly taken away, not even allowed to burst into tears. 　There's no one around me. 　Popcorn hasn't dropped a grain. 　...what?　......what's going on?　.........."Don't eat that stuff."........."That stuff."......　Have they ever eaten popcorn somewhere?　Or have you ever seen or heard of it, or have you had a bad impression.........no, no. 　by all means 　What I did with you know...　I couldn't believe I had overlooked such a simple thing in yesterday's great success... ...no, I should have known it. I just underestimated it. 　The eyes of those people who surround us... I remember those eyes. 　Are is an eye that despises and excludes others. That kind of thing doesn't mean popcorn. It's "Popcorn My Brothers Sell." 　That is to say...　You can't eat anything sold by people in the slums -- you mean. "...I'm going home,""Well... yes."　There's no point in holding on here any longer. 　A more fundamental breakthrough will not solve this problem. 　The repugnance to the inhabitants of the slums was greater than I thought. 　Even a good-natured woman didn't have a good image of the word slum. She should have noticed it sooner. 　... you've hurt them unnecessarily. "What, don't worry. I'll do something for you.""...can you?"　...well. 　I don't know that. 　however "I'm not going to do it, I'm not going to,"　I don't want to give up like this. 　How can I run away with my tail wrapped? 　It's a golden opportunity. 　If you sell it properly, you'll get a good deal of sales. 　But it takes a little time to do that...　Unlike their sisters, the younger brothers are obviously hamsters. 　It's obvious at a glance that you're a slum dweller. 　You can't take the trick of selling it. 　In order for them to do business properly, they must improve their status as hamsters. 　It's to restore trust. 　That's really a big deal. 　Well, we'll have no choice but to work steadily there. "Brother... ...we... don't want it?"　How painful it is for such a young child to deny his existence... "Stupid,"　frame a strong chop "Oops......it hurts...""There's a lot more to be done. I told you yesterday. It's only just begun. It's impossible that it's a big success from the start and there's no problem."　If a problem arises, we can deal with it on a case by case basis. "I don't have time to be depressed. I'm getting busier and busier from now on.""... yes."　I was thinking about doing a mobile sales business for a while, looking sideways at my younger brothers who couldn't even cheer them up. 　I'm really sick of it, but...　Yesterday I was excited, today I was dented...　I had forgotten something important again. 　Estella had advised me beforehand...　so "They're bound to interfere," he said he.　After I went back to the Yodamari-tei with my younger brothers, I headed for my younger sisters. 　Loretta took care of my younger brothers, saying, "Please leave it to me! I'm still my sister!" I'll leave it to you. 　Anyway, now that the stalls have become one, we have to make money on the side that sells themselves.""………………What?"　When I came to the main street, I couldn't believe my eyes. 　There are no people around the stall. 　There is a very heavy and uncomfortable atmosphere that is quite different from yesterday's scenery. 　This is the same atmosphere as it was at the seventh store. 　I can't help but run up and talk to my sisters. "Are you all right?""Oh.........oh......oh......oh...oh..."　One of my sisters burst into tears when she saw me. 　I'll hold him in my arms and slap him on the back. 　But I talk to my sister, who is relatively calm. "What happened?""...I don't understand... ...how come no one is buying me...""Since when?""Today... ...from the beginning."　What do you mean...　There was such a line yesterday. 　There were a number of people around the stall who were watching us in a long way. 　Some parents hold their children's hands tightly to keep them away from stalls. 　What happened?　Something must have happened..."Oops!"　I was wondering what the cause was, when suddenly I heard a harsh noise. 　I saw a thin man, like a mantis mammal, approaching me with a smile. "Who are you going to give me permission to open a shop here?"　He was born in the Showa era. 　Waddle with a crab mat, stretching one's chest wide. 　He keeps shooting guns with his head snapped. "Don't you see it? It's the lord's permission."The roof of the stall is framed with a license to open the stall in Estella's own handwriting. "Huh! Lie!""Does this look fake?""I don't care if it's fake or real."　You don't care?　What is he talking about?　When I stood ready to fight back with a knife..."I don't think the lord will give the slum a green light!"　The mantis man shouted so in a stupid voice. 　At that moment, the uncomfortable atmosphere that surrounded it completely changed. "Oh, that's the way it is..." I was convinced."... Temae?""Ah?""...no, there's no way Mishita, like Temae, could come up with such a trick.""What!? Are you selling fights, Kora?"　There's no time for noisy idiots. 　The enemy reacts too quickly. 　It was yesterday morning that we opened our shop. 　We kept opening stores here all day long. It was only in the evening that we were deserted. 　Yesterday morning, we found our store, followed up on the situation, gathered information, discussed, worked out countermeasures... that alone could take a week. 　Moreover, it takes too little time for measures to be taken and effective. 　Until last evening, ordinary people here were eating popcorn normally. 　Did the rumor spread during the night?　That's stupid. 　Who would gossip at night in such a town without convenience stores or 24-hour taverns, let alone streetlights? 　...no. I don't care what method they've taken now. 　In fact, notoriety has spread, and this is how business is affected. 　How do I turn this over... ...if I don't think about it..."Oh... brother..."　My sisters cling on to me with a pale face. 　...why do they have to go through this........."Hey, what can you say!? Can you hear me!""Noisy,"　I began to lose some sense of reason with the mantis man who was barking in my ear. 　I couldn't help but cast a menacing glance at him. 　The mantis took half a step back when I stared at him. 　If you're a mere talker, that's about it. 　It's a waste of time dealing with. 　I'd love to blow it out of anger, but... that would create even more notoriety. 　I guess that's what "Yatsura" is all about.........the peddler's guild! "I'm out of business today. Put it away.""Well... Uh,　stroke one's sisters on the head and speak to them gently 　Let's go back to Yodamari-tei and have a discussion again. 　My reading was too lenient. 　I didn't expect such blatant malicious intentions. 　......get it together, me. 　All right. 　It's no use being depressed. 　Anyway, let's go home. 　I was about to change my mind when the idiot did something else. "Tae, Taemae! Don't run away!""What!"　A mantis man grabbed his sister by the head. 　Terrified, her sister frantically waved her hand free and panicked over the stall. "Oh!"　I don't know who uttered the voice; it's someone in the crowd. 　However, the voice turned the gaze of the person there on my sister. 　The triangular bandage came off, and it came out.in the ears of a hamster "Look! You're a slum dweller, after all! There's no point in hiding it like this, no use!""…………………………………………"　I wasn't thinking about anything then. 　But the body was driven by more primitive, preinstinctive thoughts carved into the cells. 　That is,--　Kill the enemy. 　In a surprisingly smooth motion, I pulled out my knife and ran a blade around the mantis' neck without hesitation. 　a flash in the carotid artery 　This should have kept the noise out of my mind for the rest of my life. "... killing without a reason in your territory is a death sentence, Obajillo."　Suddenly -- it was so sudden that such words fit right in. 　Natalia appeared in front of me. 　A sharp look is staring at me through my glasses. 　The knife I lifted was entwined in Natalia's and disappeared from my hand. 　There are two knives in Natalia's right hand. 　And on my left hand..."…………………… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …"　The mantis man's head was gripped, blowing bubbles from the corner of his mouth and opening his mouth like a fool. 　You're smashing your trachea. You're in trouble. "Attacking a shop with the permission of the lord agrees to stand up against the lord. That is to say, ... putting mud on my daughter's face. Equal, death!"　No, no, no, no!　You're jumping too far!?"...joking aside,"　That's a joke I can'tisn't it's a joke.　Natalia says in a flat voice to the mantis man with a trashy stare. "I'd like to ask you something. I'll have you come to the lord's house. I don't have a veto.""…………………………………… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …"　Finally, the mantis man is released and falls to the ground with a dull sound.I'm twitching, but I think I'm alive. I'm sure I know the line to die. "Listen to it, too.　Then Natalia, wiping her left hand, which had been holding the mantis, with a pure white handkerchief, turned her voice to the crowd looking far and wide. "This shop is officially authorized by Mr. Estella, acting lord, and whether you like it or not, I, Natalia Owen, will not allow anyone to treat you unfairly!"　When Natalia's voice ceased, the surrounding area was filled with silence. 　The main street of 42 wards, this main street, is crowded with people every day. "...I don't think this will bring back any more customers, but... at least there will be no more blatant sabot.""I'm sorry. I'm saved.""You, yourself, must refrain from short-sighted behavior... from imprinting a bloody sight in your innocent eyes."　my sisters huddling behind me 　Well, I almost did something irreversible. "I'll be careful from now on.""I hope so,"　Clerically speaking, Natalia carries up a mantis man. 　... carry it yourself. Don't you have any subordinates? "...you must manage the rest yourself."　Having said that, I started walking without hearing my answer. 　Oh, I know. 　I'll make it a real success. 　I wonder if I can give up at this rate. 　Don't regret that you couldn't give that mantis a message. 　Well, I'll tell you in person the next time I see you. 　It's a bunch of peddlers' guilds. 　You're from the list that won't hurt you if you knock it down????It's been changed to 'a list to smash everything.'
