Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 152

“Wait, wait a minute!”

Maybe the young man in front of me was shocked at my intransigent attitude, he raised his head in a panic. Then his body was frozen on the spot, staying motionless.

For him, my appearance must have been vague, but the short brown hair, amber eyes, slightly slender figure gradually regained his memory.

He looked at me carefully with a puzzled expression on her face.

“Ah…”

“What's wrong?”

“Who are you? Miss Britney's sister? No, her relative? Nice to meet you! I'm Kevin, the heir of Viscount Dane.”

“Eh?”

At this moment, it was difficult for me to look right at him with a sudden change of attitude, so my eyes wandered around.

(How is that possible? Does he mistake me as someone else?)

Looking at his expression, I knew that Kevin seemed not to recognize me.

So I decided to introduce myself again.

“I've already known your purpose. I'm Britney Hakusu. This time, my cousin entrusted me to the discussion of the product cooperating. Haven't you heard about it ahead?

“Just for a joke. I heard it from Lord Ryuze. To be honest, I think it will be easier to promote goods if the other party entrust a woman to negotiate, so I come to pay a visit. I don't want to fail for the first time. Sorry, I'm a little impolite.”

“Hum, maybe your task has failed.”

Even though this man was olderelder than Ricardo, he was a little childish.

I remembered, that he had begun to manage Viscount Dane's territory after that dancing party, but he seemed not to grow over these years.

Suddenly, I felt a little sorry for Kevin's parents.

(Brother Ryuze onii-sama, I get it. The first person I'm negotiating with is a beginner.)

It may be my cousin's kindness, but I had mixed feelings about this guest.

(Hmm, what should I do? It's better to have a good talk about it.)

He hadn't recognized me, so I had to get him to know me first.

“Since the dancing party five years ago, Kevin Danem, how have you been these years?”

“What?”

“Don't you remember me? At the party five years ago, you insulted, 'You're in my way, Fatty!' It was me, Britney. Look, the same color of hair and eyes, right?”

“Eh? So…”

“Moreover, in our territory, I have only one relative, my brother Ryuze onii-sama. Do you know that?”

“Just as you said, the survey says so. But it's a dissolute man who eloped with my mother, I think he will have other women.”

In the past, my father ran away from home and eloped together with Kevin's mother.

It seemed that the relationship with his stepmother was not good, and he still hated my father.

“Well, Will Lord Kevin inherit Viscount Dane's territory?”

“Someday, I'll have to do so, because all the rest of his children are female. This time, I just want to practice how to manage the territory.”

Practice? He should speak in this way in front of me. How could he work well with such kind of attitude?

“Don't mention it. Are you really Britney Hakusu?”

“Yes, I am. After that party, I have slimmed down. Because of this, please go back from there.”

I wanted to finish this conversation quickly, but Kevin ran up to me.

“Wait, please wait a minute!”

“No, I willI'll not purchase anything from an impolite person like you.”

“Sorry, it's my discourtesy! Please forgive me for being impolite!”

Now he had learned to apologize. Perhaps he had made some progress in the past five years. 

“Please! I cannot derail this deal.”

“Even if you say so,”

“Please take a look at our products first!” he interrupted.

Because I couldn't get rid of him easily, I decided to listen to him first.

“Recently, silk fabrics prevail everywhere, so we have begun to produce that. Our silk-making technique is more professional than that of other territories, so its quality is comparable to other famous products. But it is not well-known in the country. We want to participate in your new business in some way!”

“But, you know, we don't lack silk fabrics and Earl Astor's territory could provide us with adequate materials. The only thing I'm interested in is the textile technology of your territory.”

“Although cotton is not as popular as silk, we can also produce cotton.”

“Cotton!”

“Yes, do you need it?”

Actually, I had wanted to make various products.

A variety of fabrics used to make clothes.

(So does the cosmetic. In my previous life, I'm also interested in all kinds of clothes.)

In the process of investigating the feeling and washing methods of clothes, I knew there were various fabrics, so I wanted to produce that in this world.

(Up till now, our techniques hasn't it hasn't been up to my standards.)

Even so, I had been thinking about how to reduce the cost as much as possible and create high-quality things.

I wanted some ways to manufacture regenerated fiber.

Natural fibers were natural materials that could be used directly, such as silk, cotton, hemp, wool and so on.

While regenerated fibers were made of thread that consisted of wood, cotton, hemp and other materials, so the regenerated fabric has good hygroscopicity and fast-drying nature. Moreover, it was easy to dye, even if exposed to intense sunlight, it wouldn't discolor.

There was something called cuprammonium fiber in the regenerated fabric, which was the feathery fiber that remained on the surface after collecting the cotton. What's more, it felt like artificial silk.

(Ah, I have a good idea! Put the face mask of missionaries in the hot spring. Goo hoo!)

In Earl Hakusu's territory, the chemical experiment about Nora's mineral had been carried out since a few years ago, and no, they had managed to create some chemicals to derived fibers from cotton and wood.

Although I didn't know much about chemistry, I thought the news was true because all the experts in our territory had verified its function.

They finally made the chemicals that met my requirements, even though it had spent a long time to study that.

Then maybe we were able to get cuprammonium fiber with the chemical they created. 

By the way, if we used wood fibers, then we could get artificial fibers.

(Of course, it will not be used for formal dresses, but for some small parts like shirt, underwear, scarf, etc.)

Silk fabric was really a good thing, but it also had many short-backs.

Clothes made of silk were liable to be stained. If they were exposed to sunlight, they would discolor, and it was very difficult to adjust the clothing.

Of course, I also planned to make high-grade clothes with silk fabric, but it was better to have more choices.

“Lord Kevin, would you like to make new fibers with us? It will be your achievement in Viscount Dane's territory.”

At last, Kevin accepted my proposal.

(Gush, this man is franker than Ricardo. It's really a good opportunity. We just need an assistant to make complex fibers, because we don't grow cotton.)

In addition to the sheep in Earl Hakusu's territory, there also raised lots of alpacas, Kashmir goats, Angora rabbits, and goats. People would cut their hair carefully with scissors when it grew long enough.

For an unknown reason, Serunya raised alpaca as a pet, so I also get a few.

Later, Emirya said, “My brother likes furry animals very much.”

Because I hadn't traveled around in my previous life, I was surprised in many things of the South Country.

I also wanted some camels, but there was no desert near our territory.

“So could I have a talk with Earl Ryuze Hakusu for more details?”

“Eh? In the future, I'm responsible for the clothing business.”

“Miss Britney?”

“Are you unsatisfied with my work?”

“Of course not, but it's a heavy burden for women.”

“I've been working in the territory, even though I've never shown up. Don't worry about it.”

“But…”

“If you are dissatisfied with that, you could turn a deaf ear to it. Goodbye!”

“Wait a minute! I know, you can do it!”

“Ah?” Kevin said in a trembling voice, looking at me who crosse my arms.

“You can do it.”

“I see.”

After hearing my response, Kevin was slightly relieved.

Maybe he had just been entrusted to manage the territory, so he also worked hard just like me.

( I think, all the things go astonishingly well.)

Thanks to Ryze for choosing Kevin as my first guest.

“By the way, Miss Britney.”

“What's the matter?”

“Recently, there was a person who claimed to be your father. Has he come back to your territory?”

“No? Didn't you got the wrong person?”

“Hmmm, perhaps another person with the same name?”

I just had a vague memory for my father, because he had eloped with other's wife a long time ago.

Now, he wouldn't return to his hometown.

After that, I talked with Kevin for some details. Finally, I decided to cooperate with him.
