Reincarnation of Audemars - Who Am I...?

A Fool Making Things Right

After sending the goods to the store and having corn dogs and other snacks for supper on our wooden benches, some of the women came over when they saw the lights inside it was turned on.

These women were well... Working ladies and can't help to wonder the new products as Patricia, Prius and Rebecca were putting them on display. The working ladies saw some new products and I can't help to compliment on how sweet they do smell.

The lady with the rotten teeth has already gone to the local dentist and gotten a new set to replace those rotten ones that had not being cared for forever since they were born. Hah hah hah...

"Pat... Could you help to make us up? You won't mind, do you?" inquired a working lady as she asked for assistance to put on fresh makeup, blusher eye shadows and lipstick. "Sure... Give me a second while I finish up my work here. Be there in a minute, dearie..."

A moment later, Patricia was putting makeup for the ladies and some passersby came over and can't help remarked the beauty transformation when someone had put on makeup. Soon swarms of ladies became customers as they watched the live demonstration done by Patricia and Rebecca and soon a buying frenzy started once more.

Our 15 couples who were assigned by us as travelling merchants walked past the store and can't help but gasped in astonishment at the buying frenzy that these ladies had shown. It was as if everyone was clamouring to buy as if there's no tomorrow and the stocks were very limited.

Some of the couples came over to me and asked, "Sir, would be facing these type of crowds by the time we move out tomorrow at first light to do the promotions?" I looked at them and answered truthfully, "They would be something like that. Expect at least 30% of the population be grabbing for those order forms and returning them back to you."

"Don't worry, we would be doing the packing over here for the delivery guys. You would just be doing the demo and be presenting them on how to make the orders and make the count. All you need to do is to carry a few samples in your kit and a few basins of water to let those ladies wash their hands and faces to try the X4Li8 facial scrub and head to toe shampoo."

"Once they had done so, your partner would be doing the makeup and during that time, you would be starting to distribute the order forms. Once you had collected them back, put them in an envelope and send it back by a courier. I'm sure every town has it, right?" I explained in detail and they understood since they had been briefed several times in order not to forget the procedures.

"As for the clothes and weapons, how was the procedure like again? They can come here to this town to make the purchase on their own as well as deliver to them together as stated the order form, right?" asked another couple.

"Yes...these clothes and weapons are mainly for men. But it's not stopping the ladies who wanted to become adventurers. They could head over here and make their purchases and test the weapons and clothes first before making their purchase."

"In this way, we also bring the crowd into Ingmery and boost its sales." I finally explain and they can't help to wonder that I am a genius at making things right... But at times I'm just a fool not to notice things happening in front of me as well...

I looked at Patricia and find that I can't help to give false hopes to her. Furthermore, these children had grown accustomed and it is easy to break and make a child's heart and at this moment I've decided to make the ultimatum move. Hope I didn't get transmigrated into another era when I get married like the last time.

The children were very happy to see the crowd once more and after they finished their snacks, the helped to maintain 5 rows of ladies once more in an orderly queue as they let 5 ladies in first to make their purchases. Some of them came to buy the same products but with different scents and added a few more like eyeliner and lipstick.

The much earlier two travelling merchants named Nolan and Otis just passed by and not daring to look at me directly as they saw that the store itself was making good of the sales. They wanted to manipulate others but just too bad they had gotten the wrong kind of prey.

Unlike me offering the 60/40 with Blake, Bruce and the Atelier, they didn't have to fork out any initial credits and these goods were supplied to them at no questions at all. All we need to do is to check their stocks and be paid accordingly. It is simple and most importantly it is based on trust.

"Daddy... Daddy... Could we come with you one day when you enter the Northern Forest? We also would like to learn how to handle a crossbow just like you too. *sswwoosshh sswwoosshh sswwoosshh* and bring home the kill. At least we could learn a skill or two, please... Daddy...?" asked Ingles as she tugged at my sleeves... And what do you know... Right now if I say yes, I would have 4 apprentice Rangers with me.

"Hah Hah Hah... Let's discuss this at home, shall we? I have no worries as long as you are with Daddy and we can hunt deer, rabbits, wild boars and an occasional bear or two... Hah hah hah... Let's see what Mummy has to say."

Right now I think I'm closer to my target then I dreamt it would be since the children have taken up as taking me as their role model in life. At least they too can learn to take up a new class.

....

"Prius, how many rooms do you have upstairs? Don't mind me asking since I have some ideas in my head and I wanted to share with the three of you." I said casually as we entered the Great Hall after sending the children back to their dorms. The matron doesn't give many hoots since she knew the children would be in good hands.

"Oh, we have 6 additional bedrooms, a study, a museum and 2 bathrooms upstairs, why do you ask?" Prius asked since I had never ventured upstairs nor asked about the number of rooms in this Great Hall before.

"If I may say so... I would like to take your sister's hand in marriage, Prius and that make me your brother in law." I explained after heaving a huge sigh of relief because I knew someday the question will pop out and I don't want Patricia to keep on hoping and nothing comes out of it.

Prius was so happy that he slapped his things and guffawed while Patricia was holding her hands to her mouth and tears of joys started to stream down her face. "My God... I've been waiting for the day for you to say that my friend... I mean, brother in law. This would be the best news so far that I had received in my whole entire life...!!! I knew Pat would be ecstatic ever since you had woken up from your deep sleep... "

"Audemars... You had made my dream come true. Alas, I do not have to worry about my future of not finding the right man to be my lawfully wedded husband..." cried Patricia as she rushed to me and literally melt in my arms as she moulded her body into mine and looked up longingly.

"You are my hero and my everything, a man of virtue and yet as soft as a woman's heart. I never knew such a man exists that knows so much about a woman's wellbeing and beauty and I want to have many kids with you..." said Patricia as she hugged on to me on my knees.

"Talking about the kids, how do you find Adam West, Ingles, Jane and Kayla? Do you think they should bear the Macleod's family name as well?" I said as I teased Patricia lock of hair that fell in front of her face.

"You mean to say, you wanted to adopt them for real? All 4 of them and putting the orphanage out of business?" asked Prius as he too had Rebecca in his arms due to jealousy of seeing Patricia doing that to the MC.

"The orphanage won't be out of business. It would be a daycare centre where our employees could drop their kids when they are at work. Don't worry about the finances, it's well under control at this moment."

I reassured Prius and the first thing on my mind was to duplicate the iron amulet to a further 20k pieces for 5 days straight. At least I would be able to earn 2m credits at the end of the duration.

"You mean you are taking control of the orphanage as well?" Patricia asked me since I had made up some decisions to ensure that Ingmery would flourish under the new management head of the House of Keating.

"Yes, that's true, my dear. And also the Strongbow Tavern that is being run by Silas Brown as well." I finally said and told them that the 4 of us would be heading to the orphanage to meet the matron and be taking over the orphanage.

Then we would inform the employees to drop their children there as the Strongbow Tavern would be supplying them with foods. I've decided to go to the Southern Library to meet with the scholars and get them to be educators for the children in the orphanage that would be called daycare centre once we had successfully taken over.

Little did we expect, from a lowly Adventurer, Audemars was able to rise up from the ashes, and not only he was hacking the system to his advantage, but he was also helping the community to a better, healthier lifestyle. He had also helped the business to grow and to somehow help the economic growth in Ingmery itself.

Such a selfless act had earned Audemars thousands of points in Reputation.
