Volume 8 Chapter 6: How About A Bakery As Well?

"These guys would have to start in another city." Actually, they could never start a store anywhere that had affiliations with the Rustchil Duchy. What they did was probably known by every supporter of the duchy. No one would want to make a deal with them unless they want to feel the wrath of the grand duke. 

These merchants understood it as well. They were begging left and right to gain the grand duke's mercy. However, Keith could tell Edmund would never reply. 

"Do they think my father is a fool?" Krystal frowned. These merchants were running into a brick wall. If Edmund accepted, it would only ask for more people to betray him!  

"What are you doing?" Krystal noticed how he was staring at the merchants. 

"Nothing much. Just remembering some faces."

"?" 

"Young Miss, Sir Keith." The maids greeted them. The two nodded as they headed inside, but he was met with Cedric. 

"Hello, Grandpa."

"Little Gem, how was it outside?" Cedric grinned. 

"It's better with Father returning." 

"That's nice." Cedric then turned to Keith, "You cooking for dinner?"

"...You know I'm a guest, right?"

"So?"

"...Grandfather." Krystal's cheeks turned red. 

"...Fine." Keith shook his head. He couldn't believe the shamelessness of this man. 

Cedric grinned. I may ask him for that as well. He was already shameless enough.  

...

"That dinner was amazing, Keith." Violet wiped her mouth as she stared at the child. He had made steak and potatoes. 

"Indeed. Delicious thing ever." Cedric felt like his stomach was about to explode. 

"..." It was delicious and messed up. Edmund couldn't deny it, but to ask a guest to do this? It was really embarrassing. However, there was another thought in his mind. Should I ask him for more coffee? He had three cups today. 

"Thank you." Keith took a sip of his tea. 

"What kind of meat did you use?" Cedric was quite curious about the meat.

"Oh, that's meat from a dragator." 

"What?!" Edmund and Violet's expressions froze, "You fed us dragator meat?!" 

"Keith, do you know how expensive that is?" Dragator meat was a delicacy! A piece would have cost a couple of gold coins! 

"I'm fine. I have a lot left." Keith grinned. He had like 8.5 left, "I also used dragon honey as well."

"..." Edmund and Violet had no words to say about this. Just one cost a few gold coins. The honey was even more so than the dragator! Plus, the way he cooked it, a platinum coin was the least amount. 

"By the way, Kid. I was thinking about it. How about you opening a bakery here as well?" Cedric had been meaning to ask him about this. 

"You want me to open a bakery in the duchy?"

"Mmhmm. You have so many in the northern region! There's one in the royal capital and academy as well. Why can't you have one here?!" 

"Uh,"

"And it doesn't help that the one in the royal capital is loaded with so many people!" The bakery in the Royal capital always had a long line. It didn't matter who the person was; they would have to wait.

"Wait a moment, you're not living in the city?" 

"No,"

"Then why do I see you every day?!" Hold on a second. That kinda didn't make any sense. Cedric was a residential customer at his cart. So how could he come every day if he wasn't living there? 

 

"Oh, I just take the gate."

 

"Holy, that's expensive!" To and from the city was just crazy enough; the number of coins spent was enormous.

 

"For my granddaughter, I can do it!" Cedric grinned, "Also, I have a yearly pass, and I'm good."

 

"…There's a yearly pass?" What? When was this?! Keith turned to Krystal, who looked away, not wanting to meet his gaze. Where is a hole I can hide?!

"So, how about it? Make a bakery in my duchy!"

 

"Ahh, I think it would be too expensive."

 

"How?!"

 

"Father, calm down." Edmund felt his father was going to explode in a moment.

  

"Using teleportation gates like that isn't cost-effective." Most of the materials the bakeries used were from his farms. Getting those materials over to the royal capital and then to the city required a teleportation gate, which cost coins. 

That was why he never considered making more than one, as each carriage would cost a lot. Of course, he would probably pull a Cedric and buy a pass. 

"We would need to take a trip to the royal capital and then to the duchy." That was what John did.  

"Just tell your father to set it to duchy as well." Teleportation gates could be set. The one in the Freed territory was set only to the royal capital. 

  

"Yeah, then you need to discuss this with my father." This was not his place to say.

 

"Kid, are you really going to play coy with me? You're just like your grandfather."

 

"Thank you, I'm glad I take after him." Lionel was pretty cool.

 

"Scratch that, you're more cheekier."

 

"Heh." Keith grinned. That only caused Cedric to glare more so. He was too calm about everything. They kept talking about it for some time before Keith walked away. However, 

"That kid is too tight-lipped about everything!" 

"You can't blame him, Father."

"What's the matter, Little Gem?" Cedric noticed how Krystal had kept silent throughout the conversation. 

"Umm, he's planning to put a trading shop here." That was Keith's plan. 

"Mmhmm." Edmund agreed with it. 

"Then wouldn't he use the same teleportation gate?" It really didn't matter that much since he would be getting goods over here. Plus, it might be even cheaper because it's in bulk.

"?!" 

"Brat!!!!!!!" Cedric didn't even wait as he stormed in Keith's direction!

Violet laughed, "How much do you expect Keith said all of that to make father in law get off his back?"

"Is that even a question?" Edmund chuckled.
