Capítulo 101: 500,000 Yen

The store owner's reaction was positive.

After eagerly devouring the sample products, the charm of the new ingredient was undeniable. All that remained was to finalize the terms and close the deal.

Once the atmosphere was set, Wataru proposed the price he had in mind: fifty silver coins for a 500-gram bag.

Roughly converting to about 500,000 yen, it was significantly cheaper than sugar but still caught the store owner off guard.

"F-fifty silver coins for this bag? That's a bit steep… How much can we make with this amount?"

"Generally, about 10 to 5 grams for every 200 grams of flour, depending on the recipe. Some adjustments may be needed depending on what you're making," Wataru explained calmly.

The owner's frown began to ease. "I see, so only a small amount is needed. That makes it more reasonable, especially for high-end pastries."
