A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

"Hee... I don't like bread."

Takeo was talking in admiration.

“Yes, the Elvis cook baked the wheat for bread imported from the kingdom of demons, and made it fluffier and softer than the kingdom of demons.”

“Just asking makes me want to eat it.”

I'm also impressed with Viktor's report.

"... if it spreads all over the city, there will likely be more imports."

“Yes, in fact, we have orders coming from all over the city, so I don't think it's far from being known.”

Viktor says to Takeo's murmur.

"... I don't think Count Elvis will miss this opportunity... it looks like we'll be able to differentiate ourselves from the wheat varieties in the realm in a few years."

Takeshi says while thinking about it.

“A dozen years from now, things may have changed across the kingdom.”

"That's a great story, isn't it?"

Meyer is impressed by Viktor's predictions.

"... I want to put a constant on the imported wheat stably... but I have to think about the added value."

"Speaking of which, Lord Konoha said that the accuracy of the powder was improved."

Viktor says to Takeo's murmur.

Increase the accuracy of the powder?... you mean it's fine powder?

Is it possible to add value by making a mill or something? "

“I think the mills are all over the city?”

Meyer will tell you.

"Ground is considered good in restaurants."

Besides, the quantity is also necessary, so the transportation after grinding is also bulky and difficult.

Therefore, there are many places that are ground at restaurants.

They sell more bread and pasta than they buy wheat, and they may not use it much to feed their people. ”

Viktor says.

... finely ground wheat, difficult to transport...

Can you go to the monopoly bureau and spin a prototype of the water-resistant bag? "

Takeo whispered as he thought about it.

Director?

Lord?

Meyer and Viktor looked strange.

"Hmm? Ah... I'll think about it a little more and then move."

"... you're moving, aren't you?"

Meyer and Viktor said in amazement.

"Yes, something interesting is about to happen right now."

I see, the mill... let's join the cooperative. "

"Hah... then we'll need some materials when we're on the move, so we'll have some from the city's mill before we get back from the war."

Viktor says.

"Yes, please, but not right away."

It's fine as much as you can. ”

"I understand.

Now that the Lord wants to do more, we will move on to the intel of the Kitamizato family and the laboratory.

Currently, the Kitamizato family's income includes Worcester Sauce, Walt Whiskey, trench coats, and other clothing, stationery, and toys, all of which are reported to be selling well.

Among them, Worcester Sauce, Walt Whisky and Trench Coat have been deposited.

Um... this is the document. "

Viktor places a piece of paper in front of Takeshi.

... yeah, well, that's about it.

Takeshi lifts up the paper and looks at it.

“Yes, the idea fee is relatively cheap under the Lord's contract.”

"The more you sell, the more you get, so it's good to have less."

"Yes, each contract has been made according to that idea."

This is the estimated income and expenditure of the Kitamizato family for the current year, which reflects this income in the salary of the children, etc., but here is an estimate. "

Viktor places a new document in front of Takeshi.

... ah, it's not negative.

“Yes, we can expect to manage a positive balance.”

Viktor says.

"Hah... good.

There hasn't been a deficit since the first year. "

Takeo was relieved.

“We expect earnings to increase in the future, but I don't think there will be a sudden increase, so please don't waste the money.”

"Yes, ah! Yes, I will let you know that the Institute's budget will increase from next year."

Huh?

The two of them are surprised.

"Hmm?... you said that, didn't you?"

I heard that it would be a three-platoon platoon, but I think it's about that budget increase... have you decided yet?

Meyer asks.

"Yes, Your Majesty told me.

In person in the office after receiving the order.

I was told in front of Gina and Smith that it was 6,000 gold coins. "



The two of them closed their eyes and were wrinkled between their brows.

"That's right..."

Takeo smiles bitterly.

"So... I thought about the breakdown of the laboratory funds as 60 people could be hired for three test platoons while I was returning.

This is it. "

Takeo places a piece of handwritten paper in front of them.

Meyer and Viktor peered into the paper with their glasses on.

... well, it's good that the director's salary is 300 gold coins...

Huh? Is that okay?

Takao was surprised by Meyer's murmuring.

"Huh? Isn't that good?

If it weren't for this, wouldn't it be possible for a nobleman to hire a maid or a butler? "

Meyer said it with a strange look on his face.

"Oh... I see, thank you."

Um... basically, I tried to raise the monthly salary of the executives who are going to see a lot of employees.

General Manager Meyer has increased from 6 to 7 gold coins, Company Commander Andersen has increased from 5.5 to 6 gold coins, and his fellow laboratory manager, Tracy, has increased from 5.5 to 6 gold coins. ”

I see.

“Thank you.”

Viktor nodded and Meyer lowered his head.

"I'm budgeting for two or three more researchers, such as the current bell tone and Pana."

"Hmm... you're going to expand that, too."

“I don't know what kind of people I can meet, but I shake it from the beginning because I don't have a budget when I want to hire.

What about the draft at this stage?

If there is anything else I need to do, I hope we can discuss it in the future. "

Takeo says.

“It's basically fine.”

“Yes, I think it's good.”

The two of them were going to say it while looking at the budget proposal.
