===18 A different kind of housewife===(None Edited)

Rimi Honda is a housewife.

As Takeshi Yusei guessed, it would have been impossible for a woman like her to come out at all.

With such closed customs in Japan, it was really very difficult for housewives to get out and work.

Unless there were some exceptions.

And she was one of those exceptions.

Her husband, who had committed suicide earlier, had committed suicide by lying on the tracks.

The bubble had burst and the family's standard of living had fallen.

The family had no savings left and was in debt as a result of a huge investment blunder.

In the end, the man in the family couldn't take the psychological pressure and chose the path of suicide by rail instead.

Simply put, he left alone with a pat on the back, but left a pile of mess for his children and wife.

Debts that she still needs to pay and children that she needs to look after.

But, as a mother, she can't find a job that suits her needs anyway.

The idea is that the pay is decent.

Before she became a housewife, Rimi Honda was a woman of some standard in the workplace.

It was only after she married her senior in the workplace that she gradually left the workplace and became a full-time wife.

This society is very cold.

It doesn't take any sides because you have a miserable life.

A woman with children, and a woman who brings them up alone, just doesn't stand a chance in Japanese society.

She can't tell you how many times she has come up against a wall and been disappointed.

The little she had saved in the past was about to run out, and if this continued, the family home would be taken away by the bank, and the family would fall completely into the doldrums, never to rise again.

The child was innocent.

That's what Rimi Honda thinks.

But no one would listen to her.

They would only argue on the basis of gender and age.

Until, disillusioned, she came to an employment agency and saw a job listing on a free notice board posted at the door.

Male or female, base salary of 200,000, with an additional commission depending on the workload.

The only requirement was to be down-to-earth and patient enough.

This was the job she had been looking for for so long.

But would a person with such conditions to her liking really accept her as such a housewife?

Rimi Honda was suddenly a little unsure of herself.

But now she had no other choice.

So she followed the address on the introduction sheet to the office building.

Just as she entered the building, Rimi Honda actually regretted it a little.

This place ... was not a serious company at all.

There was only a decent plaque at the entrance.

But when she entered the inside of the building, it was cleaner than the wallet in her pocket.

In the idiom of the Eastern countries, it was described as a family style.

How could a company be like this?

The first thing that came to Rimi Honda's mind was a fraudulent company.

The kind that would roll up and run away as soon as they had made a fortune.

She had seen similar cases on TV.

Then she saw the young Takeshi Yusei.

An unreliable company.

And this owner seemed to be a young and boyish young man.

It looked as if he was only in his early twenties too, right?

Did such a young man really want to start a company with his heart?

"You're the first employee to come here, so welcome, but I'm sorry, I've only just tidied up here, so I can't offer you tea for now."

"Oh no, that's not necessary at all." Rimi Honda said with a quick wave of her hand.

Then Rimi Honda surveyed the office building with curiosity.

"That, I want to ask what exactly this company is going to do?"

"Well, we are an electronic entertainment company, and in the future, we are going to manufacture a brand new entertainment equipment to be offered to entertainment halls and individuals for sale."

"An electronic entertainment company?"

Rimi Honda was not unfamiliar with the term, but it really wasn't common for these types of companies in the past.

"Tell you what, I'll give you a general introduction."

Takeshi Yusei ran to the door and brought over a prototype red and white machine with a TV that he still had in his car, and then just placed it directly on the counter top at the front desk.

Plugged in, the start button was clicked and the familiar Super Mario rhythm sounded again.

"This is what this company makes, a kind of entertainment game that children and adults can participate in, as well as something that can be played in pairs and even enhance the parent-child relationship to some extent."

Rimi Honda peered curiously at the game machine.

Suddenly it didn't seem so unreliable to her.

At least, this thing looked high class.

It wasn't the kind of thing that just cheated people.

This was at least the kind of guy who prepared something that looked like a bluff with care.

If it's really meant to be a scam, then it must be a high-end scammer and definitely meant to make big money.

As long as one is careful enough, then there should be no problem.

"This, I'd like some more information on the pay and what I need to do?"

"This, ah, at the beginning, it might be a bit hard, because I belong to a start-up company, my plan is that the ground floor is the reception and sales area, the first floor and the third floor will be used as a workshop for assembling in the future, I will go tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to find a way to talk about the parts for the manufacture of the game machine, and then, the exact date of starting work will be within a week. "

"I don't have to pay anything do I?" Rimi Honda asked cautiously.

"Huh? Pay money?"

Takeshi Yusei was baffled by the question for a moment.

He was recruiting himself, why did he have to pay money?

"Ah that's good, so the salary is like your advertisement says, two hundred thousand dollars a month and there will be a commission is that right? I want to know exactly what that commission will be."

"Well, I haven't thought about the exact price of the commission yet, but don't worry, it will definitely be a price that you will be very happy with."

"Then I'll go back and think about it, okay?"

Rimi Honda said.

"Of course, it's your freedom, and you are always welcome, our company is eager for any talent, no matter what, after all, as you know, a start-up company is still very short of people, in the future, our company will definitely develop very well, the sooner you join, the more benefits you will have."

Rimi Honda was silent for a moment, but decided to go home first.

She felt that this company was really quite reliable.

But she still had to be a bit cautious.

It was just that the thing that could be played on the TV was perfect for the two children in her family.

If she could have such a game console, perhaps the children at home would be happy too?

The first thing that came to her mind was that it would help her to manage the children to some extent.

Right now her own children are just a bit too wild.
