Earth With Dungeon: Saving the World With an Economic Boom

ectedly too good-nya.
At this rate, we will run out of available vegetables-nya.”

“I see.
Is there any way to solve that?”

The documents include the sales figures for the past three weeks.
The sales for the first week were 620,000 yen, the second week was 930,000 yen, and the third week was 1,520,000 yen.
These figures are if we count the purchase price of cores, labor costs, participation fees for hunting tours, and the sales of dishes and vegetables.
The hired employees earn a daily wage ranging from 500 to 2,000 yen.
Finally, Karin receives a 20% share of the procurement expenses as compensation.
The net profit is approximately 20%.

There are about 700,000 yen in my possession, and the rest is allocated to Karin to buy vegetables and flour.
If she were to run off with the money, I would deal with that situation when it happens.
It would be unfortunate for Karin, but I want to believe she understands that.

“The area around Amatsugahara Corporation has calmed down in monster attacks, and employees are patrolling, so there are fewer occurrences-nyan.
And the rumors about the market in the abandoned city are spreading rapidly.
I can handle a maximum of 2 million yen worth of weekly transactions-nyaan.
Anything beyond that will attract unwanted attention-nya”

“That’s not good, we’re in quite a predicament.
Is there no other way?”

Leaning back on the sofa, I wear a troubled expression.
That’s an extremely troublesome situation.

“If it’s seeds or seedlings, we can be flexible and increase the number of fields for cultivation-nya.”

“But that won’t be enough in time.”

“Well, if that’s the case, I already know the answer-nya.
We should buy the wheat flour and vegetables being circulated by those in the nearby outer city-nya.
From what I’ve investigated, they’re being bought at much higher prices by Sakimori than what I can offer-nyan.
Oops, I shouldn’t have said that-nyaan.”

She says, hiding her mouth behind her hand and laughing to cover it up.
But this exchange was what I anticipated.
And the next exchange, I wonder.

“I can introduce you to those officials if you want-nya.
In return, I want 5% of the purchase price from you-nya.
As the amount increases in the future, it’s a reasonable fee-nya.
Isn’t passive income wonderful-nyaan?”

Karin winks and suggests, and I squint my eyes and nod in agreement.
She’s quick on her feet.

“All right, that works.
Make the introduction.”

“Thank you for your swift decision-nyaa.
I already have a contact-nyan.
Are you okay with potentially attracting the attention of the influential people in the outer town-nyaa?”

“Well, it’s a path we can’t avoid in the future.
It’s not a problem.”

I should establish connections through this transaction.
And then, shortly after, the store will expand its lineup.
If I suddenly expand the lineup right after starting the market and face difficulties in procuring groceries, it would raise suspicion.
It’s best to wait until after the transaction is complete.

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve visited the outer town.
I’m sure something interesting awaits me there.
