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

The room had a strange vibe.

Grandpa Elvis is a bitter face. Alice and Smith look surprised. Frederick is as usual.

In common, it felt indescribable.

"Uhm... you think you're from another world?

"You're saying it yourself and you're doubling your lies.

But I also thought about it yesterday, because all I could say was yes.

"... um. So, how do you prove it?

"Yeah."

and Takeo line up on a variety of removal desks from the back.

wallets, notebooks, cell phones (powered on before breakfast), LED lights, cigarettes, lighters, ballpoint pens, etc.

"Hmm, nothing I've ever seen.

And Grandpa Elvis is looking at things lined up as he says.

The other three are looking at each other with interest.

"Mr. Elvis. I'd like Mr. Frederick to see it, too, so would you mind sitting down?

"Mm-hmm. I was wondering if Frederick would sit down and join the story.

"I'm in awe.

and sit around your desk like everyone else.

"What is this? Though the skin is leather.

Alice shows it to me.

Wallet.

"This will be my purse. For once, we are processing cow skins.

Inside, there are banknotes and cards.

and let it out inside.

"Where I was, the national currency is banknotes and coins.

When the numbers increase, the coins become more valuable.

"This paper is well written, isn't it?

and Smith asks with a 10,000 yen bill.

"This note uses machines, not handwriting, to make thousands or hundreds of millions of identical pieces.

Details are designed to prevent counterfeiting.

If you put it on the light, you'll see that a technique called watermarking is used.

A painting would come up in the white, wouldn't it?

"Ooh.

And Smith is surprised to see the watermark.

"These coins are surprisingly artistic. Does that make any sense?

and Frederick is watching with a 5 yen coin.

"The coins we have now represent agriculture, aquaculture and industry, which are the foundations of the country.

I also have something to say about the plants painted on the other coins.

"I see."

"Takeo. What's with this card?

I was looking at all kinds of cards.

"It will basically be a store card.

For example, if I bought one item at a store, I would earn 1 point and save 10 points to redeem it for something.

"Hmm. Is that profitable for the store?

"I do. You have a better chance of getting it to you first.

Because customers are vulnerable to the phrase "free" or "special".

And by aggregating what sold, you're creating a mechanism that tells you what sold.

"I see. Is business profitable?

"Master Takeo, what's this?

and Alice had a notebook.

"This is a notebook, isn't it? Write down your daily plans or write down the actions you took that day.

"I see. By the way, I have numbers ranging from 8 to 22, what's this?

"Yeah. This is where I was, isn't it?

"Is it time?

"By the way, Miss Alice, what is the interval between each hour of the day?

"Huh? The bell rings eight times a day, so I'm checking.

"Where I was, I divide the day into 24 pieces.

I'm starting to say that's only been an hour for every one of them to go on.

and Takeo show his watch.

"It's supposed to be an hour when this short thing moves for one memory minute.

Alice watches.

"... Dear Takeo. We only split 12 of these?

"Yes, we decide to denote every 12 hours because it is difficult to see the interval between each hour narrowed when divided into 24 pieces.

"I see."

"This machine is for talking to people far away.

Takeo started talking with his phone.

"How far is it?

"... you can talk about it even if you're in another country or further away.

For a moment, Takeo almost said, "Anywhere on Earth," but I don't know how to think here, so I made it a familiar object.

"What does it mean to talk? Is it going to take a few days?

"No. I can literally talk to other countries as far away as I can from them as I'm talking to them right now.

"!? Is that awesome!? Can you use this now?

"Unfortunately, I can't use it. Because they have to have this too.

By the way, I can take a picture of this.

"What is a photo?

"... it instantly paints a detailed picture.

"Nano!?

"Miss Alice, can I take a picture?

"Yes!? I don't like it because I'm scared!?

Alice seriously refused.... but.

"Ha. Well, I won't bite.

... Then let's take a picture with me.

"... if we're together, we'll figure it out..."

And reluctantly, acknowledge.

Takeo moves next to Alice and points at the camera.

"Watch here, will you?

"Ha... yes.

and pretty nervous.

Pasha.

I took it normally.

While showing Alice the image.

"There was nothing, was there?

Explain.

"It's strange. I'm drawn. But you look weird.

and squeaks as he stares.

"You're pretty nervous. Of course, it's prettier to look straight at it this way.

and try to include a follow up.

Alice blushed suddenly.

"You're a master of mouth." and it's a bit of an anger mode.

I take a lot of other things and ask questions.

Takeo also explained one by one.

------------------------

"Mm-hmm. It's full of rare things.

"It was a strange experience.

"There was also a lot of interesting stuff.

"That was quite interesting.

and each member's thoughts came out.

"So. What's Mr. Elvis's decision?

and Takeo asks Grandpa Elvis.

"Mm-hmm. I'm half-hearted about coming from different worlds.

It's all unusual stuff and unknown knowledge, but it's not a certainty.

"I guess.

Is it reasonable to come from another country?

"Um, about that would be the compromise.

"So, do we talk about this too?

I say Elliot Henry Elvis.

In the kingdom of Azpur, this is my county territory.

and Grandpa Elvis niggles and talks.

"Yeah."

and Takeo strike a relationship.

"Takeo. I have a faint reaction. Not my Count!?

"... I know it's great, but can I ask you the basics?

"What?

"What are you, the Count?

"" "" Huh!!?

Everyone was surprised.
