Ryoko giggled when Rayne gestured to her.  She could tell just being around her was enough to get him flustered.  She finished off her apple, licking the juice off her fingers again after throwing away the core, glancing seductively at him.  She wasn't sure if she was actually interested in him yet, but it was always fun to tease.<br/><br/>"I think I agree with the two of you.  Staff's important, but we should see about doing most of the work on our own, at least until we're ready to actually earn money.  Still, a few professional remodelers might come in handy, I can have a talk with the guilds and see what I can come up with.  I can also swing by the moneychangers and see about getting a loan.  We've got a bit of a reputation around here, and we do have the mercenary thing as extra income, so we should be able to get some extra gold to kick-start the business.  I think Rayne's right about the location as well, the first floor makes sense for all the buisness.  We might also want to make one or two of the rooms on the second floor into some sort of guest lounge as well, for business deals, or any sort of big VIPs."
