Watching Olivia play on the 3DA, our first customer appears. The customer began to look at our menu from the sign. Thinking that it was too expensive, she left.
I guess not everyone can afford prices like these. It was a shame that our potential first customer had left our stall.
A while later, another customer appeared. This time it was a male somewhere in his forties. Looking at the sign, he also frowned slightly.
"Good morning, would you like to buy anything? I guarantee that the food we sell is of the best quality." I tried my best to appeal to him with my smooth talking.
He was flustered when looking at me. He coughed slightly and began ordering. "I will take a beef meal set to increase my stamina." Paying three giant silver coins.
Olivia waved her hand and made a small cube of beef. Stabbing the meat with a wooden stick, I gave it to the man.
He looked confused about why the beef was small. "Try it first before you complain." I didn't want to deal with an angry customer.
Listening to my advice, the man looked skeptical. Taking a bite of it, his eyes widen. "UWWWOOHHH!!!" He screamed as his muscles began to grow. Was this the effect of someone would who couldn't use mana? It looked like he took some drugs to make himself stronger.
Everyone who was nearby had heard the commotion. The other men were wondering what was happening to the man before them.
"I have never felt this good in my life!" He was flexing his muscles wide in the open. He made a great advertisement for our store.
Before anyone came to our stall, I had changed the price of the stamina meat to five silver coins. I hope that Olivia's food wouldn't have any side effects.
"Jerome! When did you become so muscular!" An unfamiliar man who knew "Jerome" appeared and was surprised by his appearance.
"Do you see that show there? Their stamina meat made me like this. I could work all day!" "Jerome" left excited for the day.
The man who bought our food had directly advertised our food. This was a great start to our business.
The money will be raking in no time if this keeps up. With Jerome's help, more men came and asked for a lump of meat that helped boost stamina.
Olivia, who was still playing on her gaming device, had waved her hand with one hand and summoned multiple foods dealing with all the customer's orders.
At first, a man complained about the portion of the meat we gave, but after he ate it. He had nothing he could complain about.
We had earned five gold from ten men. "Olivia, how much mana do you still have left?" I needed to check on her and see if this wasn't too taxing for her.
"I have plenty. I didn't use much mana for the meals that I created." Since men didn't need much mana, Olivia could continuously make them without being tired.
Should we raise the price for women? Olivia would need more mana for them to be satisfied. I should ask Olivia how she would feel about it.
"Olivia, do you think our business will be better if we raise the female prices?" Ultimately, her products would be sold at the price of her mana.
"Please do. I don't want to get tired too easily." Women in this world are not only more robust, but their profession makes them earn more money with their magic. I don't think they would be complaining.
The decision was made to double the price for all females. This way of money-making was much quicker than going into the dungeon.
It wasn't long before a student came toward our stall, looking at our prices. The female student looking at me had her eyes widen. "Aren't you Charlie from Class S-1? What are you doing here!"
A curious one, wasn't she? "Making money?" I mean, there wasn't any reason other than to make money here.
"That's pretty expensive." The student looked at the price and spoke in an exasperated voice.
"And why do we girls have to pay more?" She thought it was weird that the price would be higher for females.
"The food we sell is made out of mana. Men use less mana, so the cost is lower for them." I told the female student the reasoning behind the price.
"I see. I will buy the mana recovery chicken." Paying 16 giant silver coins, I got the chicken that Olivia had already summoned.
The female student was surprised by the portion. But knowing that the food was made of mana, complaining wasn't something that she wanted to do.
Her eyes widened like the first customer we had earlier. "I didn't expect my mana to return this much." She was talking to herself when saying it.
After finishing, the girl left with a happy face. As the day went on, more and more customers appeared, and Olivia's mana was going to run out.
"Olivia, look how much money we earned." Olivia was drained from the food she had made. It was cute how she was leaning on me with our cheeks connected.
Our stall had closed, ensuring no customers were going to order. "Olivia, we earned about 80 gold coins today. Almost doubled our money from a dungeon."
"That's great." Olivia wasn't in the mood to celebrate with how low mana she was on.
"How about we go get lunch in a restaurant?" I doubt Olivia would want to make food in her state. Also, my trust in stall foods became much lower, making it almost impossible for me to go there.
"Hmm," Olivia grunted, not in the mood to talk.
"Why don't we take a short break first?" Olivia looked like she could barely stand up in her state.
Instead of Olivia's face on mine, I put her head onto my lap. Maybe I was a bit too hard on her. I should tone the amount of food made for our next service.
