I'm the Descendant of the Goddess Eat?
Chapter 17: Deal!

"Hibis.. what? Which freak gave such a difficult name to a flower." Khan grumbling.

"So, what do you think, sir? Can we talk about the cost of materials, sales prices and marketing methods?" retia asked, he had spent too long in this place without any certainty, honestly also quite afraid that Khan would even hold him to be dredged by knowledge from the modern earth.

"Before that, can you cook another dish? The fritters were less for me."

"Had I guessed you would say this, the Chief Chef should have prepared the dishes in the dining room. Let me deliver."

"Ho? Are you intending to replace Chief Servant Ron? It just so happens that soon the man will retire." Khan's eyes were round, his eyebrows were up. Khan seemed to expect Retia to say, "Yes."

However, Retia's goal still remains the same, winning the cooking competition. That was his goal from childhood. "I refuse, I'm here just to tie business with you."

"Is that so? Maybe next time if you're interested."

"Then, come."

Retia and Hans left the kitchen and headed back to the dining room.

...•••...

About two hours after the two of them had discussed. Khan came to a conclusion and prepared to hammer the deal.

"Okay, it's decided. Soap products from waste oil from fried— business will be sold at the cheapest price, which is three bronze. Soap products for washing without any additives will be priced at five bronze. Multifunctional soap products for washing and bathing are priced at ten bronze. Hair-specific liquid soap products are priced at fifteen bronze per-bottle. Soap products with the name 'Jasmine' that focus on aroma will be priced at twenty bronze, the last soap product with the name 'Hibiscus' those focusing on skin health will be priced at one silver coin per rod, each named product will be made also its liquid product with some additional bronze. Do you think this is fitting, Miss Retia?"

"Yes, I agree."

"The cheapest is nine thousand rupiah and the most expensive one hundred and five thousand rupiah, if we can later produce each one thousand pieces per day, the profit seems to be exploding." Retia.

"Now the royalty cost of the product and the initial funds of the construction of the factory. For product promotion, as you suggested earlier, we will put on a show to introduce soap. Giving those present fried know the contents and tempe free as a promotion and give a piece of multifunctional soap as a sample to make them become accustomed and start dependence."

"The royalty fee was changed to a comfortable mansion and preparation support facilities for the upcoming cooking competition in less than four months."

Retia was stunned, there was a reason why Khan was called a hero in this kingdom. Putting aside the fact that his emotions and attitude were unstable, Khan was a cleverly skewed man who was very well versed in socializing.

Khan may be the only new nobleman who is not hostile to any faction because of his actions that always deviate from the political world. In addition to his talent in attracting connections, Khan is also a top artifact maker as well as a magic swordsman who ranks in the top five of royal knights.

More than that, though, the rumors about Khan who had access tokens going into the kingdom at will and also the rumors about him being the son-in-law of the Sahara Empire made all the girls want to have a bond with him without even hesitating to sell themselves to be a concubine. Retia did feel very scared and agitated when she was near Khan, but just being together was the best and quick way to build a name.

Retia also does not need to take care of anything because Khan will take care of all trades as well as those who will try to imitate or annex his soap business. Retia was sure that if anyone had done that, Khan would have decapitated her and grinded her to know.

"For the initial capital and the plant, I will provide three hundred gold coins as the cost of building the plant and one hundred gold coins for the purchase of raw materials each month."

"Eh? Wait, isn't it too soon? one hundred gold per month is equivalent to three hundred and sixty-seven million rupiah, you know? Isn't this too big for a business that hasn't even been born yet?"

"What is a rupiah? I think that a hundred gold is even less. Ah, it seems you misunderstood something."

"Misunderstand me?" Retia was confused, to be honest she did not really understand about business matters, let alone this other world.

"Yes, this first soap was a cleanliness revolution. Second, this business will explode quickly after the promotion of the show you recommend. I will specifically invest in this promotion one hundred gold coins per month. Third, I intend to market soap to the rest of the world through the Sahara Empire which has access to a total of five major kingdoms and nine small kingdoms. So, the soap and Retia's name will explode as you dream, Keke." A sharp grin was engraved on Khan's face. The serious expression that amazed Retia disappeared like it was swallowed by air.

"Isn't it too fast and too big? Wouldn't you lose everything?" Retia asked.

"Then what should? Starting small and then getting destroyed after people know how to make soap is not difficult? You don't think you're the only one with revolutionary thoughts, do you?"

"That.., I was wrong. Sorry for my rudeness and stupidity." Now that it comes to Retia's mind, even without her intervention, the soap will eventually be discovered intentionally or unintentionally. Because in the world of origin of soap starts from animal fat mixed with soda ash.

"No-no, if you really want to apologize, then use your mind to revolutionize everything else as well. However, rest tonight properly, tomorrow we'll leave for the far east of Kansas City" Khan said. Now he really returned to that unpredictable attitude.

"Ah, before going there, can I go somewhere first to pick up some of My things?" ask Retia. However, Retia must take the supernatural frying pan and the recipe books of her grandmother at the Khan residence.

"Where is that inn? I'll tell Ron to take it."

"Ah, actually before meeting you, I was granted temporary residence by a Guardian named Hanshell Destramagi, I also want to say goodbye to the servants there, too, they must have been worried since I disappeared from a week ago, ", Retia explained.

"Then meet him in the morning before leaving. However it seems you need a break, it seems there are a lot of things you think about, rest, tomorrow we have to leave early in the morning so as not to camp twice."

"In that case, I'll resign."

"Yes." Yeah."

Khan was still there. Standing up, then flicking through the window curtain, his mind far away glared into the outer space.

"Mid Guardian, huh? So the person I'm going to meet tomorrow is the one called the strongest person in this kingdom? The number one, Hanshell Destramagi? Looks like it'll be interesting, hahaha."
