I am the Entertainment Tycoon

In a spacious room within one of the Student Council Complex, several student council members gathered around tables piled high with boxes filled with fake money. The atmosphere was a mix of focused determination and bubbling excitement, as the council meticulously prepared for the upcoming festival. Each box contained stacks of brightly colored bills featuring a cute snow princess at the center of each note, printed with the school's emblem and denominations ranging from small amounts to larger ones. The fake money would be the currency used by festival-goers to purchase goods and participate in activities, with the top ten earning clubs receiving special rewards.

That's why each note had the highest level of security that the printing machines from Fuji Co. could afford to print.

Each note had a unique serial number, a QR code, and other security measures. Consequently, someone couldn't counterfeit them, as the security measures assured that each note was unique, and if a single double or counterfeit appeared, the student council would be almost immediately notified.

The fake money was called Yuki Notes by the student council, and it was divided into notes of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 Yuki Notes.

Council president Vivian Darktower, a calm and organized presence, supervised the operation, ensuring that each box was properly sealed and labeled. Vice-president Aurora Gray, known for her attention to detail, was counting and recounting the stacks, making sure the amounts were accurate. Treasurer Carolla Wembley was updating an inventory list, marking down the number of bills in each box, and coordinating with other members to ensure a fair distribution.

Around them, a few school inspectors and teachers helped the student council diligently, some organizing the boxes into neat piles while others double-checked the security of the seals. The room buzzed with quiet conversation as they discussed logistics and confirmed plans for the festival's currency exchange points.

At first, someone suggested employing stands all over the campus with cashiers employees at each currency exchange point, but when they calculated the number of exchange points needed to attend the enormous school campus, they saw that if they continued with this plan, they would need to employ so many people!

Long story short, they were already dealing with a shortage of staff, and if they allocated people to work in the exchange points, they wouldn't be able to maintain the basic organization of the festival.

It was then that Carolla, the student body treasurer, suggested that they should use the tens of vending machines placed around the campus.

Just like any other place in Sakura Abode Country, the Yukihime High School had tens of vending machines allocated around the campus selling all kinds of meals and drinks.

What they would do was adapt the vending machines to function as currency exchange points instead of meal vending machines, and with a little modification these machines would be the perfect currency exchange points. Plus, they would be able to place these modified vending machines in many more places, so when they saw many good points this idea had, Vivian, the student president, asked the school to use the vending machines.

The school was extremely supportive of this new festival, so they almost immediately agreed with Vivian's proposition.

That was why tens of vending machines were gathered in front of the student council building as the tech guys had just finished the adjusts that would make them function as currency exchange machines.

Each machine would work like this. The person would insert the amount of money that he/she wanted to convert into Yuki Notes (The name of the fake currency money that the student council decided on), and the machine would return the same amount in Yuki Notes. For example, if someone wanted to convert 200 dollars, they just had to insert the money or their credit card into the machine, and shortly later the machine would return 200 Yuki Notes. The customer could even decide if he/she wanted the money in notes of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, or 100 Yuki Notes.

All in all, the whole machine was very user-friendly, which would make it much easier for the public to convert their money.

When the council members finally finished counting and checking each note, it was finally time to load them into the currency exchange machines (a.k.a. vending machines).

"I think everything we are ready to load the money into the machines." Aurora said with a tired voice.

They had been counting Yuki's Notes for the past hour, so it was normal for her to get tired of the repetitive task of counting and checking the money.

"I think so as well." Vivian agreed, "Carolla, have you already decided the amount of money for each exchange point?"

"Yes, I did my calculations and some points will see a higher traffic of people, so the vending machines of these places will receive more money. While the places with less traffic like..." Carolla started explaining her calculations and the amount of money each area would receive as she pointed at the campus map.

Vivian, Aurora, and the others listened to her explanation with rapt attention. Although they didn't need to know the details of this specific operation, they still needed to know the overall situation. And as they listened to her explanation, they had to admit that Carolla had done a great job as they could see that each calculation was made with frightening accuracy.

For example, the area where the Mini Music Festival would happen was a key area where crowds of people would gather, so Carolla calculated the approximate amount of people who would go there and the amount of money each person was willing to spend, from these calculated data she calculated the amount of Yuki Notes she had to allocate to that area.

This was just one area of the Club Festival venue as Carolla had done the same for all the other areas.

Everyone could see that Carolla had put a lot of effort into this task, and the girls couldn't be more happy and proud of their friend.

"Great job!" Vivian said with a bright and proud smile when Carolla finished her explanation. "Yeah, you did an amazing job, Ca-chan!" Umaru exclaimed.

"You're amazing, Ca-chan!" Aurora smiled happily.

"..."

Carolla got shy as she listened to her friends' compliments and her face assumed a deep shade

Of red.

"Aww, our little Carolla is shy!"

"I can't control myself, I have to squeeze these cute red cheeks!"

"..."

Just like that, the girls attacked Carolla's cute frame and teased her.

Although, everyone there was super busy, they were having the time of their lives, especially because they were among friends.

A while later, they resumed work with Carolla's on command as she allocated the amount of money each machine was loaded with.

The student council knew that the Yuki Notes were crucial for the festival's competitive spirit, and their meticulous efforts were aimed at ensuring every club had an equal opportunity to compete for the top ten spots. As the currency exchange machine was checked and sealed, a sense of accomplishment and anticipation filled the place, they knew that they were one step closer to finishing their preparations for the festival!
