As an economics student i would like to thank you for this comment!!
I completely agree! Why can't she face things she can't overcome? I want Alphonse to help her more. It's always her doing something and Alphonse is just sitting there. Sometimes he even kisses her out of nowhere and we're expected to think it's cute. Which, I mean.. it is. But like, it kind of pisses me off on how nobody feels uncomfortable. Talking about business and suddenly ya'll get horny and start to kiss. Anyways, I think Alphonse should start helping her more. (づ￣ ³￣)づ
Lol where does Alphonse money even come from though? Sure some of it is old money but he’s literally wasting money not even bothering to bargain when he’s buying things. Both have a I’ll take everything attitude (because they have both done it) and although I’m still a hs student I don’t think that’s a good business strategy I mean king’s who had that attitude tend to put their country in debt...also Alphonse probably has a money kink lol think about it the romance is sweet but always business related.
"Money kink" I- LOLLL yeah maybe.. Idk where it comes from, but I would also like to know. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
I love the story but if she is going to be a good business lady maybe don’t show all your cards it’s really pissing me off. So far she hasn’t run into any problems but you just told everyone what you know maybe keep some for yourself till you get an offer. The rose hip plan maybe tell them you know a cute show people being cured but not what is till you either have a monopoly of the product or at least get a business offer. Same with the tea in general perhaps get a monopoly over the tea trade so other shops like the ones among don’t happen. Plus the empire has been lacking tea for so long a sudden boom would really hurt the economy. First off although trade is good they are replacing coffee something a part of the empire for a long time so most likely has large shops of it and manufactures a sudden loss of it would cause many to lose jobs. And it wouldn’t even help the the tea business would be opening up jobs. Someone working with coffee might not have the skill for tea and tea isn’t grown or opening up a lot of jobs since they just buy it from other countries making the other countries rich while losing your own Noble’s money and peasant jobs. I was hoping she could make a tea farm but I don’t think that is happening based off the story so far and the difficulty of doing such a project.
