For the shop itself its not any better, its actually alot worse as now unsold products "costs" money.
Unless she actually sell all the fish, she is going to be loseing money.
But it alot better for the people selling the fish.
They allways get paid in full for the work they do, unlike before when they only got paid for the fish that got sold.

If this was a real life store, it would only be done to increase to variety of the stores merchandise in hope off attract a bigger customer base.
Basically selling exotic products that might be hard to find elsewhere in hope off increasing overall sale even if some products always costs more money then they earn in sales.
Store actually do this quite regularly, usually with products that have a longer shelf in chase of 101 different types of coffee, or in limited supply in chase of shorter shelf life items like fruit.
After all you rather go to one store that sells all you need instead of going to 4 different stores.

The fish she sells now however is processed unlike from before where they sold raw fish.
So now she can take extra pay for it, but she probably also have to pay someone to do the work for her so the total profit might not be much higher.
Depending on the culture and spare time of the buyer the overall sale might be abit better or worse then selling raw fish.
Now they dont have to do the work of gutting and de-boning the fish and at least in today society most would be happy to pay a bit extra for saving an hour or two of work.

This is her mindset in a nutshell, she hopes to make the store and her land as good as possible for her people, even if she dont make alot of profit from it.
As long as there is a tiny profit, it's good enough for her and she is more then happy to sacrifice profit for the benefit of her customers / subjects.

Actually, before the invention of shiitake mushroom farming the shiitake mushrooms were considered luxury goods, like black truffles. They were seasonal and highly dependent on foragers who had other jobs to do and could only search for mushrooms as a side job to make extra cash. You could go out in the woods and never find any, it was a bit of a lottery whether you made any money. Although (in the novel) she had to import the shiitake spores from Earth so I don't know the cost of the mushrooms would be with no prior demand?

Also unless your a history buff you may not realize how revolutionary mushroom farming is to the market and under price the goods based on how plentiful they are in modern day Earth. Though other types of mushroom farming existed, shiitake grow on wood. Before people had microscope it may have been a lot of trial and error to get the method to grow a different kind of mushroom. Morels for example, the kit for sale online says to specially prepare a patch of earth with sand and wood ash in the woods, not use oak logs like shiitake or hay bales like oyster mushrooms...

I wonder what will happen if she can't travel between world again

 

[AaniK]

I love seeing all the progress and more strategic aspects, it's really fun to see. Buuuut has she prepared for the possibility that her ability to travel between worlds may cease to exist?

@Doomer
Depending on the terms of the deal, buying outright prior could have a discount since you could be buying a set amount each time reguardless of demand or quality. Also, she improved the rate of catching fish, so they can likely be bought cheeper too. Her recipes and preservation knowledge keeps them edible longer.

Also, her shop's prestige in the capital, set up an interest. Now she can build upon that interest by providing a larger shop with a lot more products. This brings more customers from all over. More customers = more sales.

She has electricity to an extent, so secretly freezing them is likely possible too.

@AaniK Pretty sure the whole basis of the manga (saving 80k gold coins) is for when she may lose the ability or not.

Also, not sure if it was this series or another, but I'm pretty sure there was some cat thing she talked to about her ability, so she probably knows whether or not she'll lose it - though I can't remember so don't quote me on that.

Thanks for translating

Lol. Poor mountain village guys.

 

[Shakur]

What the hell is she teaching the kids ??

 

[sarshi]

that milf maid
ooffhhh

 

[HermesPasser]

Shakur the ways of the world lol

 

[AaniK]

@Ira_Acedia The 80k gold thing is for her retirement not in case she gets trapped. I mean it wouldn't make sense to prepare for being trapped when she's relying on the ability to travel between worlds.

And I think I read that cat thing too but I don't think it was this comic? I'm not sure, can't remember either.

Poor mountain village, lol

 

[xathrya]

so what happen to General Store Mitsuha in the capital? is it still managed directly by Mitsuha or handled by other?

 

[Savok]

So what are the odds they find a hot spring in the mountains that solves everything?

 

[Goldenzeal]

@xathrya

Chapter 35.1 page 9

she closed it down untill she got her land fixed up, so unless i missed it somewhere, its still closed.

@Savok

that or a undiscoverd mine location.
Hot springs are hard to find outside of the right conditions, so i dont think its likely she is going to find one considering her land is close by a lot of water.
At least natural once, if she makes on its a diffent ball game.
