Chapter 23 The First Customer
“Ya, put it there ..”
“Be careful, please, put symmetrically on both sides.”
“…”
Akabane was busy ordering her workers to decorate her shop.
“It looks like your hands are full? How long will it take to complete it?”

Just when Akabane was busy ordering, a voice came from above her.
He looked up and saw Tsunade in his practice uniform standing on the ceiling.
“I'm busy now.”
Akabane swept her temple. Akabane has been renovating her shop for a few days now. He had to use the Jutsu Shadow Clone at least three times a day to reduce the workload. During these past two days, he had used over 100 points to increase his chakra by 1 point and his physique by 5 points.
“I'm here to see your progress. By the way, did Jiraiya visit you recently?
Tsunade's insulting expression was somewhat worried.
He had not seen Jiraiya for two days since the last time he hit her after she showed him the comic.
“Jiraiya?”
Akabane was a little surprised, and she also misunderstood what she said last time when she parted and left with a joyful expression, did her feelings just disappear?
Tsunade realized that Akabane's expression was a little different, and immediately asked again, “Did you see it?”

“Yes, I've seen him, he shows his two-page picture, and I try to explain that he still has a lot to learn, but it seems like he misunderstood my words.”
Akabane pondered for a moment and decided to guess her guess, “I want to find her, you might as well check out every woman's bathhouse in Konoha.”
“Women's bath?”
Tsunade was stunned for a few seconds. After thinking about it for a moment, he clenched his fists and said angrily, “That pervert! I have to teach him a few things!”
Then he left angry.
Akabane was silent for a moment.
He had not expected Jiraiya to be so enthusiastic after hearing his comments.
“Ah! Forgetit. I have other things to deal with now. ” Akabane thought for a moment and decided to ignore it. He's already full. Why bother thinking about something else.
After all, Jiraiya will still be fine even if he gets caught?
After several hours of renovation, the store gradually became neater and slowly approached what he had planned.
“Akabane, there's a wagon waiting outside carrying hundreds of your comic books. It seems like it was not sent from our clan. ”
Akabane's father told her about her comic book delivery.
“Oh, finally arrived! Thank you, dad, will you help them put those things inside? ”

Akabane looked very happy.
The printing factory delivered his order on time, which made him a little excited. He wanted to open the box immediately.
After a while, Ichiro Noda from the printing factory greeted Akabane personally while carrying boxes of books behind her.
Noda Ichiro bowed and greeted Akabane sincerely. “It's nice to see you again, Kurama-san, I've brought your order as agreed. Where do you want us to put this? ”
“It feels mutually beneficial, Ichiro-san, please set it accordingly in the cabinet there.”
Akabane spoke while pointing at the closet.
Word “drawing” written in closet.
My greatest knowledge I brought from my world was this drawing method. This allows customers to spend more than they should.
“Understandable, please let me and my workers do the unloading, and you can rest assured.”
Noda Ichiro nodded again, and the other workers began actively lowering his comics into the closet.
Akabane took a moment to observe their work. They had dropped the boxes off quickly. After all, they were printing agents recommended by Mito's own grandmother.
Just by seeing how smooth they worked, Akabane was relieved. Otherwise, he would need more time if he did it himself.
After they finished unpacking, Akabane had just finished arranging various prizes for the lottery. It will take a long time for so many people to help. After the comic books were full of shelves, Akabane had just completed various prizes in the draw.
…
Akabane once again checked the list, as she saw a figure slowly appear on her doorstep.
It's Shikato!
As he approached, he looked up and saw Akabane holding a wooden board.
“Akabane Comics Store, huh? I think I'm your first customer then. ”
Shikato then greeted him.
“Yoh Shikato! Why are you so punctual? ”
Akabane wonders why Shikato always comes at the right time.
“Yes, I saw your shop yesterday and decided to see it.”
Shikato answered truthfully when Akabane put up the sign.
He walks into the store, picks up the comic from the shelf, then takes it to the cashier.
“The total is 100 ry, and there is a gift in the form of a poster because you are my first customer, and you will get one chance in the draw to get a chance to get another prize!”
Akabane explained the details while thinking about what poster Shikato got as his first customer gift.
Then he finds a scroll of Shikamaru Nara posters, which he thinks are best suited for Shikato.
Shikato had just come to the store to see how Akabane was doing and bought her comics. He did not expect any other gifts, so he was surprised, and then saw Akabane pull out a box with the words “Draw”.
“Should I take something from inside?”
Akabane replied with a nod.
He froze for a moment and then grabbed the lottery box.
Since he didn't expect too much, he simply took the first thing his hand touched and took it out.
It was a piece of paper, Shikato curiously opened the paper, and there was a letter written: “Thank you for your protection.”
The letter did not satisfy his curiosity. He glanced at the text on the side of Akabane's cardboard box.
% probability: Thank you for your protection.
% probability: small poster
% probability: poster is
% likelihood: custom poster
“In other words, there is a 50% chance that I will get nothing?”
Shikato felt somewhat annoyed and helpless keeping the note, then took his first customer's gift and spread it.
It was a boy with dreadlocks and a lazy face, and his appearance was somehow similar to her.
“Who is this?”
Shikato was a little surprised, “This looks like someone from my clan, but I never knew him?”
“Ah, I created that character based on your appearance. So I thought you might want it as your gift. ”
Akabane pointed to the bottom right corner of the poster.
Here, the character name “Shikamaru Nara” is written.
“Shikamaru... huh? Well, thank you, I guess.”
Then Shikato carefully rolled up and thanked Akabane.
After which, he turned around and walked slowly, while hurriedly opening the first page and reading it while walking home.
To be honest, Akabane did not expect Shikato to be her first costume as she thought of someone else who would rush over once she opened the shop.
“True, it might be nice to have a teammate like Shikato.”
Akabane sighed a little, and then she threw her seal to summon the clone.
“I'll hand it to you. I want to rest.”
“I.. have no choice, right?”
The clone helplessly accepted the order. Although there were other staff in the store, they did not know how to use the lottery.
Anyway, it's only the first day.
The clone sighed a little and sat down and waited for the next customer.
There is a high chance that a big wave of customers will come soon.
