?You really want to do that, Sir??

?I think it would work out nicely, it has just about everything we could use. It has the space, and it?s been renovated recently. More so, with a few changes we could make a spacious lobby, throw in some nice restrooms, make the 2nd floor an administration office and use the rear warehouse as the meeting hall. Hell, I think we can even manage a small coffee bar in there.?

?Well, that?s true. There is a lot of space and it?s a good strong building. ?

?You should know, Felix. After all you were the one who restored it. And even if we can?t fit that coffee bar, we still have Yotsuba?s Cake Shoppe directly across the street, not to mention the Bon Bon down the way.?

?You?re gonna make me blush, Mister Ravenlock. An hey speaking of tasty places, did you see that new place they?re building on the north end of the marketplace? Apples & Bees or something, I think? Someone said that they?ll be doing earthen foods and the onion rings are to die for. Can?t say I?ve ever had a food to die for, thankfully. I like living, personally.?

?Y?know I did see the big sign with that bee hefting the large apple, I was wondering what that was. Also, cake is to die for Felix? Never forget that.?

?I?ve never had an onion ring before, I thought onions were round. Alright, I?ll remember that too, Mister Ravenlock.

?Alright, alright back to the matter at hand. Can you and your friend Ralph handle this? We have the funds to hire on another to help you guys out if need be, what about that Manuel kid??

?Oh you mean Manny? Yeah, we can bring him on, sure thing! I figure between the three of us, we can have this done in a week or so. Will that be alright??

?Felix, I think that would be more than alright.?

?Then we?d best get to work, I?ll grab Ralph and Manny! We?ll see you at the work site, later.?

?I?ll see you there soon, Felix. And thanks again, for all your hard work?all of you.?

?It?s what we?re here for, Sir!? That said, Felix stood and extended his hand.

Brian in turn, stood and shook the contractor?s hand firmly with a smile, ?Take care, Felix.?

?You too, Sir.?

Felix turned, and exited the office leaving Brian to look over the paperwork pertaining to the name change of the building in question, and the work order for permits from Town Hall for the additions. A faint smile took form, as he recalled the first renovation for the building that had once been known as ?Renna?s Flower Shop?.

The very same building that would be the new home for the Greater Rhy?Din Marketplace Chamber of Commerce.

Soon the other members would be informed, and discussion would begin for their first meeting. Slowly but surely things were coming together.
