The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

That was a shocking figure. Eric smiled as he observed our reaction. If I could gain this much profit, that would also mean Eric would be earning a lot from it, too.

Eric said, "I compared it with similar kinds of merchandise sales abroad, and I found out that their merchandise profits can go up to several billions in a year. If we convert that to our currency, that would be over tens of billions. "This doesn't include copyright profits or other various kinds of profits. If we can globalize the project, the profit would be rather significant."

When Eric first took over the project, he hadn't expected much from it. When Zane explained his future plans to Eric, Eric thought that Zane was simply biased toward his girlfriend and that Zane was simply exaggerating things. However, when Eric got to know more, he realized that the merchandise industry had a lot of potential! It also had many ways to bring in profit. Because of that, Eric finally had a shift in perspective.

On top of that, Zane promised Eric a large commission ratio. With that, Eric became all the more willing to put effort into the project.

Upon seeing the results, Eric smiled and said, "I shall get back to work now."

"Okay," Zane said, seeing Eric off.

Then, Zane patted me on my shoulder and said, "Hey, it's time to come back to reality."

"I couldn't believe it when we could earn 500,000 dollars. But I hadn't expected a sudden six-fold increase!" I said sincerely.

In response, Zane said, "This means the market is much larger than we can imagine."

I agreed with Zane's words. I said, "I hope our income can be maintained at the same level. That way, in just a few months, I would have enough funds for Mom's and my retirement. Once retirement is covered for, I can do what I want with the rest of the money."

"This is only the first of our many peaks. After this, the profits would only increase," Zane explained.

"Think about it: the comic isn't famous yet, but it's already performing so well in sales. When we start advertising it, won't more people get to know about it?

"Plus, there are so many people in this world. If they all know of your comic and are willing to buy your merchandise, then how much money would that bring in?"

I could imagine the extraordinary and awe-spiring amount of income that it would bring. With my hand on my cheek, I said, "That's nice."

Perhaps I had been too used to being a housewife. In the past, I never imagined myself earning so much money.

After explaining his analysis of the market potential, Zane asked calmly, "You said that you will do what you want after you have enough money. Can you tell me more about what you want to do?"

Without much thought, I said, "Sure! But I only have a vague direction.

"Whether it's starting a retail business or a manufacturing business, I just want to provide a good work environment to other

people I don't care if I earn mone

from it, but I want to share most of

the profit with them by making it their salary.

"That way, they can earn more money without having to work 12 hours every day only to earn 3,000 dollars. Would also decrease their work hours. They would only have to work half-days. This will make living more comfortable."

Zane said, surprised, "You can continue to think about it, then. When you're clearer about what to do, you can tell me, and we can discuss it together." I asked delightfully, "Really?"novelbin
