The Obsessive Second Male Lead Has Gone Wild Chapter 5

Rumor has it that mining was not producing enough profit, so it was hard to imagine how much the price will go up in the future. It was a risky business.

If they proceeded like this, everything might have a dominos effect with everything being knocked down in one fell swoop.

But Duke Burcke took faith in his abilities.

“There's already a lot of top management for the noble families. We must turn our eyes and attack the free people,” Gust said. Gael was furious, but Gust was unmoved from his position.

“If it doesn't produce results, the entire Espeda family must be held accountable!”

Gael went forward with the business plan and continued to threaten him, but Gust did not bend.

As a result, the Top of Bruque flourished under Gust's guidance.

Since capital was being created, the permission for business expansion did not drop. It seemed that Duke Burcke's pride was not to be tolerated.

Well, even on that epic scale of events, Gust continued to be a very busy guy.

He did not have time to dawdle, so he brought a variety of new products to the class that teaches the history of countries around the empire.

“It's a broom today. Five of them.”

Thanks to this, Rurutia had a lot of fun looking at various items.

“I'm sorry I'm late. Where were we last week?”

“The class was discussing relations between the Divine States and the Empire,” a student volunteered.

“Then the next chapter… Oh!”

Gust, who was holding a broom as if ready to strike in case of danger, threw it on the floor.

Rurutia, who was looking down at her book, glanced up and saw the fallen item. She ran up to it and picked up the broom.

“You don't have to do that,” said Gust.

“The two of us have to contribute.  So that the task ends quickly. That way, lessons will commence as soon as possible,” Rurutia suggested.

Gust was a fast learner and could rapidly calculate time and profits in his head without the help of ink or parchment. Knowing the importance of time, he nodded his head.

“You're right.”

He listened to the young Rurutia's opinion without being impatient. Unlike with other teachers, Rurutia felt at ease as his pupil.

Rurutia smiled at him and picked up the broom that fell on the floor.

“Huh?”

“What's wrong, Miss?”

“They are all different brooms.”

When viewed from a distance, they were similar, but when viewed up close, the colors of the handle and the comb were all different.

“That's right. This is the only thing at the Top of Bruque. How is it in your eyes?”

It was a broom that was unnoticeable because of its toxic color.

“I can't see very well.”

He smiled embarrassedly at the childish, honest answer.

“Right. The rest of these broomsticks are from the top of the competition. We have to start selling our products next week, and I'm wondering how to display them.”

“What are you going to do, Gust?”

He picked up all the brooms and lined them up against one wall. The broom at the Top of Bruque was in front.

“I've been thinking about it for days and days, but I think focusing on the presentation is the most noticeable thing to do. I'd like to ask the store owners to arrange for a fee.”

The broom he had picked up was right next to the brightest colored broom.

Rurutia noted the contrast. Is this an expression of light and darkness?

Although it was noticeable, she wanted to choose a bright broom rather than a dark broom.

Frankly speaking, the broom of Bruque was like a thing put into good use.

“Does it have to be dark?”

“Yes. Because it is made of juniper wood, it has a subtle scent. The strength is much stronger than other products, so it can be used for a long time, but the dark wood color is a flaw.”

“It's like a chimney sweeping broom.”

“Ugh.” Gust made a disagreeable sound with his nose in agreement with her.

With a full sigh, he scratched his back.

“Ha, it's ruined if you display it like this. You'll know it's a good product once you try it on…”
