Shirou's clones number 30 million

"What happened regarding what we just discussed?"

"What is it?" Emiya Shirou asked instinctively.

"Yuri and I were just discussing the profit issue when Tohsaka happened to be nearby, which led to the idea of ​​joining Yorozuya."

It turned out to be the case.

Shirou Emiya realized what was going on from just the first sentence.

With the Tohsaka family's jewel magic, no amount of money could ever be enough.

After all, gemstones are not cheap items. Even if you are very frugal when practicing magic, you will need to use one gemstone for each magic trick.

When practicing magic tricks, it's impossible to practice a trick only once.

For Rin, it would be strange not to be tempted to hear that two high school students around her age were making so much money.

"The results of it?"

Why are you asking that too?

Shirou Shiro sighed helplessly. The Hashiba project was already scheduled for next year, so he had no plans to open a Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop) in Type-Moon for the time being.

If you bring Rin Tohsaka to him, there's an eight or nine out of ten chance he'll throw her at him.

But on their side, the Yorozuya in the original world hasn't expanded yet; there's only one in Tokyo. How can they have the time to expand their business to other worlds?

"Why don't you open your own Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop)?"

It was just a casual remark, but the moment it left his mouth, Shirou Shiro suddenly realized that it seemed to be a good idea, and he immediately became confident.

"Don't you really enjoy helping others? The Yorozuya business model should be quite to your liking."

"Huh...? You mean, I should open a Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop)?"

"That's right, since you live there anyway."

"I've never run a shop before, is this feasible?"

"Me too, I've never had any relevant experience before. In fact, I still have many shortcomings."

Shirou Shirazawa then changed the subject, saying:

"However, given Hashiba's personality, if he knew you were planning to open a Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop), he definitely wouldn't refuse to help."

"In other words, let him send a clone to help, and push all the more troublesome tasks such as attracting customers and expanding publicity to him."

"As for yourself, learn what you can, and if you can't, just do what you're good at."

That sounds pretty good.

Emiya Shirou looked excited. He had thought about his future after graduating from high school, which would be either further education or employment.

As for work, I can do anything with my abilities, but I just can't find a job I like.

He even once thought about traveling the world and exploring the universe.

Looking back now, opening a Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop) was indeed a good idea.

The Type-Moon world is not peaceful, and with Hashiba's abilities, he should be able to take on many interesting missions.

Although he didn't intend to fully inherit Kiritsugu's dream and become the second Kiritsugu, helping others has become a guiding principle over the years.

Occasionally, they might mention something like "partners of justice."

Thinking about it carefully, the Yorozuya (Odd Jobs Shop) is indeed the most suitable job for me.

As his heartbeat quickened, Shirou Emiya nodded slightly.

"Good idea, I'll go talk to Qiaochang about it later."

"You've agreed to join the Yorozuya?"

"Yes, please guide me in the future."

"Oh...please guide me."

Shirou Shirawa smiled and extended his hand to shake hands with Shirou Emiya, then looked at Rin Tohsaka:

"That's right, Tohsaka."

"After this Star Festival ends, Emiya should open a Yorozuya in Fuyuki City. You can just contact him directly."

"Huh...?" Rin Tohsaka looked the two of them back and forth and couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me, what's the difference between this guy's Yorozuya and yours?"

“It’s the difference between branches,” Shirou Shiro said as he thought. “The founder of Yorozuya, Hashiba, doesn’t acknowledge the existence of a main branch. He said the other day that each Yorozuya branch is independent and there is no such thing as a main branch.”

"Even the Yorozuya that he frequents is just a branch, definitely not the main store."

"I think we can understand it in a different way: when all the full-time employees of Yorozuya gather together in a branch, that branch is the head office."

"For example, right now, during the Star Martial Festival, all the full-time employees of the Yorozuya are here; this Yorozuya is the headquarters."

Yuri Tensho, who had been listening with great interest, suddenly realized something and couldn't help but ask:

"Wait a minute, there are only the three of us in this Yorozuya. A Yorozuya that spans multiple worlds can't just have the three of us as full-time employees, right?"

"Of course not." Shirou Shiro laughed for a while, then shook his head slightly. "There are still two or three people who haven't come yet."

"Our Yorozuya only has five or six full-time employees?"

"Yes."

"This is just too much! How can it possibly function properly?"

"Don't worry, it'll be fine."

Almost every Yorozuya branch has either Hashiba or his own shadow clones inside.

Of course, he took the lion's share, while he only received a small portion, some of which were dead clones.

"So, full-time employee positions are really that valuable? I don't think I went through any assessment process."

Seeing the surprise on Yuri Tensho's face, Shirou Shiro naturally knew that she had misunderstood something, so he just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Emiya, how about we have a competition to see who owns more branches?"

"No," Shirou Emiya said without hesitation. "What's the point of me competing with you? Besides, you've gone so far ahead, how could I possibly win?"

"Besides, the inside story of each world is different, so there's no way to compare them."

"That makes sense," Shirou Shiro said with a smile. "Then let's compare sales over a certain period of time?"

"Why do you insist on competing with me? Is it even fun?"

"Isn't this to motivate you to work harder?"

"Thank you for your ill intentions."

"Ha ha……"

Chapter 656, Section 657: Teach a man to fish.

"Emiya, since you've also decided to join the Yorozuya, that's perfect. I have something to discuss with you."

"what's up?"

"Our Yorozuya has been organizing events lately and has accumulated a lot of experience in this area. We even helped Aizen with his banquet. So, when should we hold an event exclusively for our Yorozuya?"

Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Shirou Shiro paused and deliberately emphasized:

"Of course, not now, but after there are more Yorozuya branches."

"Is it appropriate to discuss this with me?" Shirou Emiya asked curiously. "I just joined the Yorozuya, and the shop hasn't even opened yet."

"There's no one else I can discuss this with besides you. If I talk to Hashiba, he'll definitely agree without hesitation, but then he'll leave the decision of what to do with me."

"So, you want to shift the pressure onto me?"

"What makes you say that? I was just discussing it with you. Two heads are better than one."

"So, do you have any good ideas?"

"No, I thought of a lot of things, but they all felt like they were just parroting what others had said."

Shirou Shiro paused, then added with a smile:

"By the way, there's no need to rush. Let's think about it for a few months first. Even if we hold it in three to five months, it's not too late."

It turned out to be the case.

Emiya Shirou seemed to be deep in thought; it was clear that Hakutaku only had one intention and had not yet made a decision.

"Are you just itching to join in because everyone else is throwing parties and events?"

"Well... you could say that." Shirou Shiro said bluntly.

"Then what do you think about holding a huge live-action gaming event?"

"How to say?"

"For example, prepare some giant eggs, and let the contestants pass through many tests before they can smash the eggs. Each egg contains some rewards such as cash, props, and treasures."

"That's so cliché!"

"Then let's hold a literary competition. The Star Martial Festival is a martial arts competition, so we can do the opposite. The literary competition will mainly consist of knowledge quizzes, poetry contests, and painting competitions."

"So cliché! Variety shows all follow this formula; just watch TV."

"Compete on talent, let everyone compete on the same stage, with no restrictions on the content of the performances, and then let the audience vote."

"It's so outdated! Ancient audiences might have been okay with it, but modern audiences are already tired of it. Even if you performed a performance of breaking the moon with your chest, nobody would watch."

“Buy an unclaimed planet, seal away all abilities, and then let the contestants play a real-life survival game.”

"It's already been on TV; it's just copying what others have said."

"Choose an evil faction, send them equipment and items, nurture them, and then hold a war game."

“Not everyone in the evil camp is evil, and doing this will definitely harm innocent people. Besides, if we’re going to do this, we might as well just bring Aincrad back. This isn’t just copying others, it’s outright plagiarism.”

"or..."

Emiya Shirou opened his mouth, but then hesitated and stopped.
