Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 96 Merchants (6)

This was a beautiful face with stunning flowing orange hair, a pair of piercing orange eyes, finely drawn thin orange brows, a perfectly shaped nose, and a pair of soft pink cherry lips, all atop the fine white canvas that was her face.

And then there was her figure.

Even though she wore a dress that was somewhat loose so that she could move around easily, there was no hiding her perfect hourglass figure. Her chest wasn't as big as Cecilia, or even Baroness Rose's but her hips were something else.

They were so wide that one would even think that they could crush a man's pelvis under them.

As I stood there with a stunned look on my face, this beautiful orange haired woman walked over to the clerk that had been helping us. She went to his side and after having a few hushed words with him, she turned back to us with a smile and said, "If you still have any questions, you can direct them to me."

The clerk didn't move away, but just stood behind this orange haired woman.

After a moment's pause, I came back from my surprise and said, "Sure, I'd like to ask a few more questions about this item."

Since there was someone new who had come over to help, I wanted to test them as well.

So I started asking all kinds of questions about the same product as before, ones that were even more in depth compared to the ones that I asked previously. They were so in depth that the clerk on the side had a trace of relief in his eyes over the fact that he wasn't the one who had to answer them.

However, none of these questions even fazed the orange haired woman.

She just calmly and casually answered all of the questions that I had.

I didn't know if the answers that she gave me were correct since I wasn't an expert on this topic, but the confident way that she spoke made it feel like she was correct.

Finally, I couldn't think of any more questions to ask about this thing.

So I just said with a smile, "Thank you for your help. You really are a thorough and dutiful employee. I'm surprised that this store was able to hire someone as good as you."

Before the orange haired woman could say anything, the clerk who had been silently listening on the side suddenly came forward to say, "That's because there's no one more skilled than our boss lady, that's why she's our boss."

I couldn't help being surprised when I heard this before turning to look at the orange haired woman with a strange look. I asked in a doubtful voice, "You're the boss of this place?"

The orange haired woman just gave a simple nod in response to this before asking, "Is there something wrong with that?"

I shook my head and said, "No, nothing's wrong at all. I'm just surprised that such a beautiful young lady would be in charge of a company that can be considered the third biggest in this city. You must really be a talented person."

When she heard this compliment, the orange haired woman's expression couldn't help changing. It was an awkward look at first before she revealed an embarrassed look with a blush on her face.

I couldn't help being surprised by just how easily she was flustered by some simple compliments.

She hadn't been fazed at all when I gave her the third degree earlier over the product, but when it came to simple compliments, she had no resistance at all…

But she also quickly recovered as that blush disappeared. She then gave a cough and said, "Thank you for your compliment. Is there anything else that I can help you with today?"

I shook my head when I heard this and said, "Thank you, but we'll need to think over this and come back another day. Thank you for all your help today."

The orange haired woman wasn't bothered by this at all as she said with a friendly smile, "Thank you for coming today and we hope that you will come again soon."

With that, the three of us walked out of the store while being escorted by the two of them. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹．𝐨𝐫𝗴

When we were back at the carriage, I suddenly revealed a smile and said, "It's decided, we're going with this store."

After hearing me say this, both of the girls sitting beside me looked at me with shocked looks. It didn't take long before those looks turned into looks of doubt and confusion.

It was clear that they didn't see the same thing that I did in that store and they didn't support my decision of buying from that store.

But I didn't bother explaining to them why it had to be this place.

After all, they wouldn't understand my point of view in the first place.

I had tried explaining to them twice, but each time, Nicole had gone against my opinion.

Still, I didn't mind that.

Other nobles might not want someone who would go against them this openly, but I actually didn't mind and welcomed it. I didn't want someone who was clearly a yes man and would just tell me what I wanted to hear, I wanted someone who would give me actual advice instead of just trying to please me.

It was clear that Baroness Rose thought the same, which was why Nicole was here in the first place.

She tried to convince me to go to the first two places, but in the end, she had no choice but to accept my decision.

After all, I was the baron and her employer. As her superior, my decision was the final say and all she could do was offer advice.

I was very happy about being able to find a supplier this quickly, even though we hadn't made a deal with them yet. So to celebrate, I suggested that we go out and have a nice meal together.

Both of them were surprised by this offer, but they also happily accepted since this would be their opportunity to make a move…

I just chose a random restaurant that we had passed earlier that had seemed decent, but I was surprised to find that both of them were very happy about going there. I learned from Nicole that this place was a store that only rich people would go to since the dishes were quite expensive.

I didn't know about that earlier, but since I had already said that we would be going there, it wasn't as if I could back out now.

At least I had some money since I was the baron, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to pay.

Seeing their happy smiles, I also decided that it would be considered a treat.

Every now and then, you needed to provide some kind of reward to your employees for their hard work, so it didn't matter to splurge a bit.

It wasn't because I was looking forward to eating the fancy food as Nicole had described it.

But as we passed by the restaurant, there was a voice that suddenly caught our intention.

"You stupid woman, can you be any more useless?"
