The Villainess Aims For A Peaceful Life 34 Solving And Getting Problems

Money, soooo much money.

'I thank thee, oh G.o.d of DIY, who made possible for me who was a business graduate to know how to do so many things'

As always a pray for my patron G.o.d, DIY kami-sama.

Now that all the four are open I will wait until their heat die down to continue the expansion of my empire. If I open all the things that I want at once the element of surprise will disappear and the profit with be lower.

So for the next 4-5 months the focus of IP will be to maintain a stable clientele. Because in 2 months we will be changing stations the department store will bring different designs. I'm excited to see what the designer will come up for autumn.

Ah, IP will also be working on Mother's birthday party. Because I'm the organizer I decided that we will not do at home like everyone else does, we will make at Temone.

Since Temone was initially a mansion anyway it won't be hard to organize a party there.

What we will do is close the tea rooms and use only the main hall. We will move some of the sofas to hall and puts some tables for the guests.

As for the theme of the party will be a Masquerade Ball. I will send the invitations tomorrow, in which inside besides the invitation will be a catalog with 40 different types of mask. The guest when confirming his attendance will have to say which mask he chose and what color. A day prior to the party the mask will be sent to the him according with the specifications given.

Of course if the guest wants to prepare by himself it's okay.

For the other details I still have two weeks to think about, now I will focus on the reports that keep coming to my desk.

The department store is all about having different brands in one place. So this week I schedule many meetings with different types of stores and designers meetings to convince them to sell some of their products in Asters.

Independent of the fame or size the store, we decided that 15% of the price of the product will IP's and the 85% will go to the brand. After many and many meetings 20 stores agreed with our terms. 10 of them are clothing brands, 8 are accessories brands and 2 are beauty products. Between the brands that agreed with us the one I'm most excited about is 'Papillon' by Ms. Brennan. She is one of my favorite designers and I originally wanted to pull her to my side but she refused my invitation since we had different goals to our brand in mind. But now that I will have Papillon dresses in Asters the clientele for sure will grow, since many are faithful clients of Ms. Brennan.

Besides the many meetings that I had to attend this week, I had to solve the same problem in two different places.

Both the cafe and the tea rooms were having a high demand of to-go type of orders. This caused big lines to people who just wanted to pick something there and go home and disturbed the traffic of both stores.

For Temone was simpler to solve since the mansion is really big. We just had one of the vacant room redesigned and put someone as clerk. We also needed to ask for the factory to send in more quant.i.ties some of the tea blends that were usually sold out.

But in the cafe was different. I didn't have s.p.a.ce sparing. As such I spent the whole week negotiating with the owner of the building beside Asters. I wanted to buy and he only wanted to rent. After a fierce tug of war I finally bought the building for three times the price I originally bid.

When I signed the contract I needed to recite 'I am rich' as a mantra to see if the heartache of spending so much money became nonexistent. But alas, was for nothing it gutted so d.a.m.n much!

Until now I can feel my money flying far, far away from me. Baby don't gooo!

With tears in my eyes and maybe murderous aura I ordered people to reform the building to a patisserie. Although it won't be one the design fits what I want. The store beside will sell all the snacks that the cafe has + different types of bread. It will only have sofas in case the client need to wait for one of the products to be done. Also the store is linked to the cafe. So now when the clients want to take some food home, he will need to go to the cafe express (name of the anexed store) and order there.

When I finally finished dealing with all that I looked at calendar
