Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Chapter 359 Department Store (two-in-one! Please subscribe!)

When Bruno completed his inspection of the territory and returned to the Hanging Garden, the "war" that took place in the Hanging Garden was over.

Avril sat slumped on the ground in a very inconspicuous manner, while the two little ones drooped their wings and huddled in Miriam's arms reluctantly, letting her ravage her wantonly and purring constantly.

"Your Majesty the Duke! You are back!"

Seeing Bruno's arrival, Avril quickly stood up from the ground, patted the dust on her body, and greeted Bruno.

Hearing this,

Miriam Morris, who was immersed in the joy of masturbating the griffon, quickly raised her head and looked at the young face.

Bruno's handsome and handsome face is not as fair as the cream boy, but it makes people look and feel particularly comfortable.

The confidence and composure revealed between the brows, as well as the aura and pressure involuntarily exuded by those who have been in high positions for a long time, made Miriam's heart tremble.

At this moment, Miriam suddenly became extremely nervous.

Even when facing Marquis Valens, she had never felt like this before.

While Miriam was in a daze, the two little ones saw the right opportunity and got out of Miriam's arms one after the other. They flapped their wings and went to have fun again.

"Mr. Duke..."

Although she had a certain blood relationship with Bruno, Miriam Morris still seemed extremely nervous when they met for the first time.

She understood that the eastern part of the empire was now completely under the rule of the Stuart family.

She had also heard about the policies adopted by Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, and other nobles.

Therefore, knowing that she was just relying on others at this time, she never expected to receive a reward from her distant cousin.

After experiencing running and wandering, Miriam now yearns for a stable life. She only hopes to get Bruno's promise to continue living on this land.

"In a sense, you should be considered my...cousin?"

Hearing this, Miriam nodded quickly.

When Miriam observed Bruno curiously, Bruno was also looking at his cheap sister.

After Miriam Morris clarified her identity to the officials of the Idar Immigration Administration, the data and information about her had been roughly obtained by the Idar CIA.

She is kind-hearted and a little carefree. She doesn't have the princess disease of noble ladies and can accept new things quickly.

The above three points are the summary given by the Idar CIA.

It was precisely for this reason that Bruno did not choose to ignore Miriam's self-reported family status, but allowed Miriam to come to the land of Idar Territory.

after all……

A noble lady with a normal personality often brings surprises beyond imagination for Bruno.

Isabel, who is obsessed with mathematics, is a good example of this.

"Do you have any special skills? For example, like mathematics? Love history?" Bruno asked impatiently.

Bruno has already tasted the sweetness of Isabel.

As a mathematical wizard, Isabel even participated in the production of many Idar precision instruments. With her mathematical skills, she contributed greatly to the development of magic industrialization.

so……

Bruno is not demanding anything else. As long as Miriam Morris has a little bit of talent as a tool, Bruno will definitely focus on training her.

After all, a tool person who is related to him by blood is not only easy to use, but also has no psychological burden.

No way, why are we relatives?

"Special...speciality?"

To be honest, Bruno's words made Miriam feel a little confused.

Although she has always been a carefree person, she grew up in an environment surrounded by nobles.

Since she was a child, special tutors have taught her the greetings and etiquette among nobles. Therefore, this is the first time Miriam has seen such a strange opening.

"I'm not very good at mathematics..." Miriam murmured softly.

Not to mention whether it is possible or not, in fact, there is no such thing as mathematics in the coursework of most nobles. Courses such as grammar, vocabulary, etiquette, and history are the most widely studied by nobles.

"It's okay, okay, what about other aspects? Is there anything you are particularly good at?" Bruno was desperately trying to discover the points that could make Miriam a tool person worth cultivating.

"In other respects..."

Miriam seemed a little hesitant. After a while, she finally made up her mind and said softly:

"...Um, does it count that I am very strong?"

Bruno:? ? ?

"really!"

Hearing this, Avril on the side quickly raised her hand and added:

"Really, Your Majesty the Duke, I can testify that Miss Milian is extremely strong! When she was busy catching the little griffon just now, Miss Milian even crushed a vase with her bare hands!"

Miriam Morris looked at the proactive Avril aside with some confusion: Are you sure you're not trying to tear me down? ? ?

Listening to the descriptions of the two people, Bruno felt that his head was full of black lines.

With the popularization of various types of equipment, even in the army of the Principality of Idar, the era of measuring combat effectiveness solely by personal strength has become a thing of the past.

Let alone you, a noble lady, even if you are a handsome boy, what's the use of having so much strength?

The Principality of Idar is a civilized society, and IQ is the key!

"Very good, very good..."

For a moment, Bruno didn't know how to answer the question.

Avril, on the other hand, saw that Bruno seemed a little speechless, so she quickly said: "Your Majesty, Duke, are you going out this time... to visit the department store you mentioned before?"

That’s right!

As the situation in the Principality of Idar becomes increasingly stable, Bruno's eyes are no longer just focused on the military industry of the Principality of Idar.

In order to ensure that he had enough funds to build the wonders, in addition to the taxes collected, Bruno also invested in a large number of businesses through the Idar Chamber of Commerce. With his foresight, he intentionally guided the industrial and commercial development of the entire Principality of Idar.

The department store Avril mentioned was what Bruno suddenly remembered during the recent period.

The business model of this era was still relatively primitive, and the types of goods sold were relatively simple. Those who sold cabbage only sold cabbage, and those who sold potatoes only sold potatoes.

If an ordinary person wants to buy several things at the same time, he may need to run from the south gate of Idar City to the north gate.

Although for the people, regardless of the distance, as long as they have some spare money in their pockets, it is enough to be able to buy what they want. However, as a time traveler, Bruno saw business opportunities in it. .

If you can directly set up a department store to provide one-stop services, not to mention how much money you can make, this approach will definitely be of reference and guidance for the commercial development of the entire Principality of Idar.

Um,

As a detached aristocrat with low taste, Bruno is certainly not for money, but for the commercial development of the Principality of Idar.

At least……

Not just for the money.

Bruno nodded towards Avril and said:

"Although the people of the Principality of Idar are no longer on the verge of life and death, their quality of life has always been difficult to guarantee. In many cases, it is difficult to buy the necessities they need. Therefore, it is just right to open a department store. "

"Department store?"

Miriam wondered.

This was another word she had never heard of before.

Although she had seen too many things beyond her cognition after coming to Idar Territory, Miriam could not help but show a trace of the world.

"The department store you are talking about is a large shopping mall built by the Idar Chamber of Commerce specifically for the people. It will be officially opened tomorrow!" Avril explained enthusiastically.

"Besides, by tomorrow... the Duke should also be there, right?"

Avril turned her head and looked at Bruno.

Bruno thought for a moment, then nodded.

Although for Bruno, the opening of a department store supermarket is not a big deal, from the location selection of the department store to the operation strategy after the opening, he drew on the experience of his previous life and figured it out on his own.

Therefore, when the department store opens tomorrow, he will naturally go and take a look.

Miriam's big eyes were spinning in her sockets. After a while, she finally plucked up the courage to say:

"Your Excellency, can I follow you and take a look..."

"Okay." Bruno nodded slightly.

…

The location of the department store was not chosen by Bruno in the already prosperous East District of Idar City, but in the West District of Idar City.

after all……

Dongcheng District already has the Caracalla Baths and a large commercial street around it. Whether it is day or night, there will be many pedestrians on the vast streets.

But the western part of Idar City is far less lively. No matter what...it should be a bowl of water!

The department store is actually not very high, only three floors high.

Although compared with the surrounding residential buildings, the department store is definitely a tall building, but compared with the wonders of the Idar Principality, it is far inferior.

However, although the height of the department store is not eye-catching, its unique architectural style and exceptionally wide area have long attracted the attention of countless Idar people.

Therefore, when the news of the official opening of the first department store in the Principality of Idar reached thousands of households through the Idar Daily, the entrance to the mall was already crowded with people early in the morning.

Summer mornings are already the coolest time of the day.

The slightly warm morning breeze blew over the faces of the Idar people, and the rising sun spread its brilliance over Idar City, projecting the figures of the people on the glass panels outside the department store.

Under Bruno's instructions, the department store adopted a different design from the past. Large pieces of semi-transparent glass covered the entire department store in all directions. The novel building aroused the curiosity of countless Idar people.

You know, in this era, in the eyes of ordinary people, each piece of large glass made of this material is worth a lot of money.

As time went by, the temperature in Idar City gradually increased, and large drops of sweat began to appear on the foreheads of the people lining up.

finally,

When the time comes to nine o'clock,

The clerks of the department store slowly opened the door of the mall, and the sweaty people who had been waiting for a long time began to slowly enter the mall under the command of the Idar police.

The smooth marble slabs look particularly majestic, and the neat counters don't look like they are for the public at all.

Everywhere they looked, the first batch of people entering the mall were eye-opening.

And that's not what amazed them the most.

What confuses people the most is...

When they just stepped through the door of the department store, a gust of cold air hit their faces.

As a shopping mall that has placed a lot of Bruno's efforts on, the Magic Circle Research Laboratory has also made great efforts. A large number of magic machines driven by ice magic circles and magic crystals have been used in this shopping mall. In the hot weather, In the summer, it provides a rare cool place for the people.

Most of the main items sold on the first floor of the mall are closely related to people's daily lives.

There are not only a wide variety of vegetables and fruits, freshly baked bread, a variety of fresh chicken, duck, fish and various ready-made foods, but also daily necessities that people need in their daily lives.

The second floor mainly sells various clothing and hats.

Although these various types of clothing produced by Idar Textile Factory are a bit rustic in Bruno's opinion, for the people, they are already the best clothing!

Not only are all these clothes and hats brand new, but due to the application of the Jenny Machine and the opening up of sea trade with the Odin Empire, the cost reduction has made the selling price of these clothes far less expensive than people imagined. If you save a little, It is not difficult to squeeze in and buy new clothes for your family.

In addition, the second floor also has products such as spirits, cigarettes, coffee, and some reasonably priced jewelry. Although the prices listed are much higher than those on the first floor, if people really want to buy them, they can It's not a fantasy.

As for the third floor, various restaurants and restaurants gather together for UU reading www. ｕｕｎshu.net The aroma is fragrant.

All kinds of delicious snacks are coming out from the lord's castle in an endless stream, making the children living in this land jump for joy, dragging their families upstairs one by one.

Bruno, Miriam and others have been here for a long time, but...as a Duke, Bruno naturally cannot line up and walk through the main entrance like the people.

Miriam leaned against the fence on the third floor, curiously looking at the crowds of people downstairs and the extremely magnificent decoration in the department store. She was speechless for a moment.

Flat floors, bright magic lamps, transparent glass windows...

In other noble areas, even the shops visited by nobles would not be decorated like this, let alone occupy such a vast area.

But here,

In the Principality of Idar...

Is this a shopping mall just for civilians? !

No more today, thanks to book friends "Rotsen" and "LiziTang" for the tips!
