“Yes, it’s dyed not only with lapis lazuli, but also with an alternative dye found in our territory.” (Ekaterina)

The discoverer is my great-uncle Isaac, the younger brother of my grandfather Sergei. According to Aaron, a mineral enthusiast with a sparkle in his eye like a maiden in love, he is the most outstanding mineralogist in the history of the Imperial Kingdom.

This dye is said to be able to be created rather than being mined, and it may be that something similar to the synthetic ultramarine used in my previous world has just been discovered in this world.

“This new dye is far cheaper than anything we’ve ever used before, and more beautiful than ever, and it can be used to dye Heavenly Blues. I would like the Empress to see it and evaluate it as a new product of the Imperial Kingdom.” (Ekaterina)

“At a reasonable price?” (Camilla)

Quickly, Camilla took the bait.

“It’s wonderful, right…well, with the power of the Yurinova Duchy, I don’t have to worry about the price though. But I want more and more ladies to be able to wear this beautiful variation of blue.” (Ekaterina)

“I hope so, my lady.” (Camilla)

It was really good that the abhorrent person who hated this and sabotaged its production was now gone. After all, this item was discovered by my great uncle Isaac about ten years ago.

After that, they were working on research and development to ensure stable production, but after grandfather passed away, the old hag said she wouldn’t allow such research saying that it was outrageous that the Heavenly Blue, which should only be worn by a select few noblemen, should be made affordable and used by lowly commoners.

Halil and his team continued to research and perfect the product in secrecy while nodding their heads in agreement. But even after the old hag passed away, they still couldn’t sell it as a product because it wasn’t trendy.

……The reason why brother and his men are so busy is partly due to the fact that there are so many other things that they can do now that the old hag is finally out of the picture.

I’ll make Heavenly Blue affordable and accessible to the common people, so you can grit your teeth behind the weeds, you old hag!

“Also, I’d like to incorporate some gems from the dukedom into the design. You can choose whatever you like from here.” (Ekaterina)

Mina then pulls out a case containing various gems and shows it to Camilla. I got this one from Aaron. The colorful, sparkling gems were all several centimeters in diameter.

The colors are vivid. I don’t know much about the quality of jewels, but I have a feeling that in a previous life, they would have cost a ridiculous amount of money. I know that the price would reach millions, no, hundreds of millions.

It’s just for free ! I’m not giving it to you, I’m lending it to you!

“I know it’s not the latest fashion, but since I’m representing Yurinova and welcoming Their Majesties, I wanted to show the unique characteristics of our territory. I’ll make it into a brooch with a simple base, so I’d like you to design something that can incorporate that.” (Ekaterina)

“Oh my goodness, what a wonderful collection of exquisite… gems and this beautiful Heavenly Blue. The design should be simple and elegant, but the colors should take center stage. I can create a mystical beauty like a goddess with these. I love the idea of a new concept for a dress…… instead of following the current trends. I’ll do my best to work on it!” (Camilla)

With that said, Camilla quickly started scribbling her pen through her sketchbook.
