- So, there's nothing for me to do there.

even going back to Thrace with him.

At the gates of the empire's armed forces headquarters, two guards exchanged glances.
- A suspicious woman has been spotted. She appears to be... Hmm, middle-aged. She is showing interest in the base.

Wait, why did Guion's time stop today? He went to see Beata yesterday, and today he was going to philosophize. Or did he spend all his time on philosophy?

By the way, Revan, I should have 10% fire resistance from my cloak.

Spending 1 Order Point takes 4 hours, and traveling to the location of the Philosophers takes 2.

Oh, and 1 bath in the bathroom, since we're leaving today.

- Have you ever heard of the word "tourism," newbies? - the suspicious woman grumbled, shrugging her shoulders as she climbed the icy mountain.

Merel reaches the golf club where the quest giver he was looking for was located.

- Greetings, are you the one who posted the advertisement in the adventurers' guild?

- Have you ever heard the word "tourism," rookies? - the suspicious woman grumbles as she climbs the icy mountain.

— Madam, I commend your agility and determination, but if you do not cease climbing our gates immediately, you will have to spend the night in a very dark place.

He's bluffing. Keep going.

Hooray, a new cellmate!

- Greetings, are you the one who posted the notice at the adventurers' guild?

— Good day. Yes, that was me. My name is Lexicon Venge.

— Sports, perhaps? I also enjoy doing everything possible to make life difficult for migrants here, but there aren't that many opportunities for that.

"Well, yes, I think I've heard similar complaints before, either from me or someone else, behind the counter... 🙄"

— You know, I don't think it's worth wasting your energy. Running your own business is a big responsibility; your hard work and ideas are better put to good use, that is, to figure out how to catch that Firebird. Believe me, productivity increases significantly if you avoid unnecessary things, although it can be difficult. In this regard, it's great that you're starting a business; not everyone is economical and persistent enough to save up as you have. So, let's focus on that...

— Sports, by the way, seems like a great hobby to me; perhaps you should consider pursuing it? It's a shame that there's already a gym in town; what else could you come up with? A hippodrome? I'm afraid His Majesty Purian doesn't favor gambling, so that would be difficult... Today you're on top, and tomorrow your establishment is banned. But if your imagination works well in the field of sports, maybe you can come up with something else? Take a look.

— Since I was a traveling merchant and traveled quite a bit, I tried to notice where and what kind of business people run... Do you mind if I suggest a few options, and you choose?

In fact, the girl was prepared, and if Arthur expresses a desire for a long and productive discussion (if necessary, with pauses and breaks, etc.), she puts cards on the table, simply drawn, but together with the story, they create bright and colorful images in the mind.

— So, the first thing I noticed in Margel was the lack of good bars. No, there are establishments, of course, but in them, wealthy Margelians can only lighten their wallets without receiving any new useful experience in return. At the same time, we don't have a dry law on the horizon, so why is that?

Now imagine:

— The lighting should be warm and evening-like, but unlike cheap bars, bright enough to show the visitor perfectly clean glasses and goblets. The best location: the port district, where sailors gather. The cost of real estate will be approximately 3000 rem... The remaining money will go towards furniture and the initial purchase of alcohol.

— The downside of this option is that your finances are barely enough... Serving two-rem ale and competing with ordinary local bars makes little sense; you need to establish supplies of something more interesting. Vallensian and upper lunar wine, sake from Shiho or the Mitsurugi Islands, cognac, various infusions or liqueurs, aromatic beer – there are many possibilities, but you'll have to look at the average price range (she says). Well, I can give you some contacts, as one merchant to another.

— The next opportunity is quite different: to create a photo studio, you will need a room and a camera. And the ability to use it...

Something like this

— I'm sure this is one of the most reliable options. At a minimum, you are guaranteed a steady stream of customers who want to take photos for documents, but if you show yourself well in photography, the possibilities become even greater. This includes photos with decorations, in costumes, tourist photos against the backdrop of Margel's locations... Some beautiful people and celebrities, whose photos, with their permission, you manage to obtain, can become your business cards to display and attract more visitors.

— The main costs here: real estate, the purchase of very good and bright lighting, a developing tank, and a camera (she lists the estimated costs).

— Third: you could take a bit of a risk and get into the hotel business.

Picture!

— Of course, the Hearth is a good place to stay, but people who want to receive some benefits now have to stay in rented apartments and buy decorations for themselves... In theory, a small but cozy hotel with a sea view, with about 10 rooms, essentially apartments with amenities, should be in great demand. Costs: real estate for 3000 rem, one maid, furniture (she lists).

— The downside? Well, you'll have to put up with it if migrants come to you for services, in order to maintain a good image. Although I suppose this applies to almost any business to some extent...

— Next, something interesting... Pet store.

Happy owner

— Also a relatively simple option: you need to get acquainted with a breeder, and then, where all these cats, dogs, fish, and hamsters will come from, is generally not your concern... People like pets of all kinds, even if they require attention and care, but in return, they give much more. Depending on their character, they can provide a wide variety of moral support to the owner.

— The downside, however, is that... Of course, it's just a rumor, but they say that His Majesty Purian wanted to somehow limit pet ownership. I hope that's not true... And in any case, in terms of hygiene, this is the most demanding option; you can't let the animals run around; they will get sick or acquire an undesirable odor.

— Next, a hairdresser's or barber shop. Well, judging by your appearance, you know how to take care of your hair. It's more difficult for other people, of course, but you need to have steady hands and a desire to learn; again, for starters, you can try hiring a specialist, and then improve your skills with his help...

And arrange it like this

— In my opinion, no one will ever refuse to look more beautiful and neat, man or woman. As a similar option in terms of costs and preparation, there is a massage studio, or you can combine these services in a "salon." With your strong hands, it should be quite feasible, and to make the massage professional, you can learn some medical subtleties by spending extra OD in the Archive.

— In general, at the end, I'll say that if you are willing to learn, there are many diverse options. There is currently no good alchemist in the city, for example; by occupying this niche, you will not know poverty. There is only one master armorer, of course, he is truly magnificent, but his prices are steep... Thus, by opening a cheaper forge, you will not compete with him. An art workshop? A school of professions or martial arts? I certainly can't recommend something that would require you to recruit too many staff or undergo too much intensive training. But if you feel interested in this, then it's a different matter; I can suggest such options to you.

— I'm sorry if I bored you. How do you like the ideas I described, Mr. Arthur?

- Thank you. I won't, but could you at least tell me what this is? My map has many locations, but nowhere does it say where I can go and where I can't. Aside from the guard on the bridge, you're the first reasonable person I've encountered in the last three hours; everyone else just yells.

— This is the headquarters of the "Knights of Welfern" order. We are a separate entity from the guard and the armed forces, but like them, we are responsible for maintaining order in the country and countering external threats. To be honest, you are the first to try to storm us, at least in my time.
