Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear - Vol. 4 Ch. 31

[aurafort]

Capitalism, Ho!

 

[dharman]

she introduces one-time-use-only plastic to the other world. many monsters will be choked to death.
*drop*

@Leo80221 - because normal people buy their eggs in tens, not dozens. Using dozens just to mess with people's ability to calculate is something Americans do.

@Sakai - she will still have adventures, don't worry. Even full-time merchants like Satou and Kraft Lawrence have adventures, and an adventurer with a sideline in commerce like Yuna sure has them too.

 

[cryum]

And thus, the bear introduces the first forms of long-lasting pollution. /s Hinged earth containers is pretty freaky though. Magical compression OP

More seriously, she just sent kids to interact with non-domesticated, non-tamed animals. There's a reason that cockfighting exists. She's also putting human-grade vegetables as their feed, which is both questionable as a nutrition move and inefficient for costing.

 

[Tesla]

Where are the bear theme on the eggs pack?

I'm sure that no-one would complain about pollution if it was Bear plastic!

 

[GodGinrai]

Yea, I find the egg carton to be BS. They should have just had her use a basket (like they used to do in the past) if they weren't going to come up with some crazy explanation for how she made the carton.

 

[SuppeBargeld]

Let's introduce plastic to this medieval world that has no knowledge about the long term consequences of environmental pollution. That won't backfire at all!

 

[ValKnight]

@GodGinrai that would have been a better idea, straw/wooden baskets that the kids could make too. The author probably just didn't think of it and thought wooden (from the LN) would have suited it.

Either way I'm looking forward to seeing how she does commercially. Cuz we already know back on Earth she was damn good with money that she earned bucket loads from investing in stocks. This would be more up her alley than fighting monsters.

Thank you for the chapter!!

 

[Doenyon]

Love how you guys cringe about plastic polution, but nobody cares about young child labor.

 

[natchu96]

Considering how orphanages in stories like this usually pan out it's generally a good thing someone wants to give them any work...

 

[Bluedudu]

@Doenyon So helping out the family with chores is child labor? LOL sounds like a rrly spoiled childhood there

 

[zetarn]

The eggs container that make of paper do existed , i donno why the manga using see-through plastic in this.

 

[Doenyon]

@bluedudu Chores ? Sounds like someone who's never had to take care of a business / farm animals... And also the rest of the things she'll have them do. (won't spoil you if you haven't read ahead in the ln, but trust me, they are going to be working 18+h days.)
All for a salary, not an allowance. :)

 

[yuu-oniichan]

@aurafort I came here for the recettear reference, I was not disappointed. *thumbs up*

 

[boag]

CAPITALISM HO!

@ValKnight
It would not surprise me at all, if by the end she owns the entire kingdom.

 

[Dezaki]

why sell the eggs using a container? using container only giving you a extra work. i believe people always bring their own basket at that level of civilization. so, it's enough to put them into a basket with hay in it or a crate if there's lot of it.

 

[CountryMage]

Very few people noting the child labor, but nobody pointing out that she used the same speech as the corrupt noble opening the child brothel, 'if you don't work, you can't eat, you won't always get a handout,' very heavy pressure on the director and children there.

 

[stilgar]

I wonder ow long it will be till she makes mayonnaise

 

[alidan]

@meatballs well if i remember right the rank in this world goes to S, so fairly large spoilers below, wont go into fine details, but will give details

Spoiler

The next bs thing she does gets her quite a bit of fame on a national level, and the bs thing she does after that nets her a 'you know what, screw it, you choose your rank, i'm sick of giving you new ones all the time' only being held back due to needing more guilds to approve an S rank.

Her merchant rank will go up to s steadily over time due to some other bs she did on a whim

Effectively this means she maxed out her adventurer level before she maxed out her merchant one

@Doenyon
Have taken care of chickens due to family hobby of raising them. but of a pain in the ass, but nothing a child would find to be hard labor. now spoilers due to future happenings

Spoiler

at her cafe they work as waitresses, and choose to, partially as a means to support the orphanage, and also because its also functioning as an apprenticeship. considering that when the women came over from the seaside town for work and they were shocked they got time off on a regular basis, yunas work is probably the best place to be for anyone

@CountryMage
well you are now talking about morals, which when you don't have a state sponsored safety net effectively means I don't like that you are doing something to gain money, you should starve instead, just go over to that corner over there and die. granted, and spoiler for story reasons

Spoiler

we find out the orphanage was being embezzled from under the lords nose, to which when he finds out he orders prompt executions of everyone involved because of how shittey they are being

but even then, it just shows that the money from nothing can't be trusted/guaranteed. overall, its small chores for the kids and they are better off then they were before.
