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

Episode 220: Day 14: A debriefing after dinner. (Proposed expansion of the city. )

"All you have to do is have a conversation with Takeo and the manager at the tailor.

"Uhm."

"The tailor's manager says he's leaving tomorrow for Wang Du with three union managers, a store manager and a craftsman.

"Isn't this the meeting I was saying about the terms of the deal with the other union?

"Yes. I was prepared that it might be tough content.

"Mm-hmm. There's no easy bargaining for a tradesman in Wangdu on a boulder.

"Yeah. Looking forward to seeing what happens.

And then the sartorial union wants to build the factory.

"A factory in a union?

"The basics are that it's a trench coat sewing factory that other union members can use.

"Um, I see.

By the way, how many people did you say you'd hire?

"The first time is with 20 people.

So he said the factory wants at least 60-70m ²...

I think we should give you about 300 m2 of security if you think about the future.

"Um... there's no extra 300 m2 in this city..."

Grandpa Elvis leaks a sigh.

"... isn't there still..."

"Except in people's residential areas, because we make them into stockpiles and fields.

Frederick also looks difficult.

"Can we expand the city?

"... if I may, I can get out.

"... can you twist the cost... right?

"Is it still gold..."

"By the way, where did you think we were going to expand?

"That's the exercise area in front of the castle gate.

Is it a commercial district surrounded by a new wall of 800m wide by 600m deep?

Could the wall be about 7m high?

Write briefly... "

And, Takeo starts writing a picture briefly on the paper that was around it.

"Takeo, 7m is low on boulders. The walls are 10 to 15 meters high.

Well, the bulk of the cost is in the stone bills on the walls, so if the walls are higher, it costs a lot... "

Grandpa Elvis and Frederick laugh bitterly.

"... what's the meaning of the walls?

"Preventing foreign enemies from breaking and entering.

It's 8m that demons can't fly over.

"... then. At 7m.

"What!?

"It was strange to see the walls here...

Why don't you have a dig?

"Digging about 2 or 3m wide at a depth of 1m is no use to the demon opponent.

Because it seems that goblins and orgasms come climbing scaffolding without worrying about the bodies of their people.

Besides, it's going to take a lot to maintain the moat.

There is also a city within the kingdom of Azpur that uses moats... but I hear it's hard to repair the moat after it rains.

That's why our city doesn't use moats.

"Really..."

Takeo was surprised that the moat was shallow in size and narrow... and wondered if the moat itself was less cost-effective.

"Um... first of all, the image of my castle digging is about 7m wide and 5m deep...

If you're from the bottom of the moat, the wall will be 12 meters tall.

"It's wide and deep.

"7m wide... even an amateur with a bow and arrow is going to manage to guess.

"The excavated soil will pile up about 2 m on the edge of the moat opposite the walls of the castle as a dirt base.

The drop from the top of the earth base will be 7m, right?

Think normally. Can you jump over a wall 7 meters high 7 meters away?

"Wouldn't it be possible if the Beastmen could get help?

"Beastman??

"It's a generic name for a big beast. Four foot walking, two foot walking. A lot of things.

I don't see much around here.

"Beast... shall we then enclose the back side of the earth base 1 or 2 m with plantings up to the waist length?

I want you to grow regardless of the season, so... are you a broadleaf?

And then you plant roses...

Do the trees behind the waist lengths increase density and even plant pines?

"... I know the rose tree is to keep me from getting help.

Why do you plant pines?

"Pine is fuel. I was wondering if I should create firewood.

I have to do regular logging and planting to circulate it, though.

It burns well, so if you have enemies lurking there, you can burn pines, right?

"... you say terrible things.

"With 7m of open moat and hip-length trees, it won't be hard to extend the burn over here and...

Besides, red pine trees produce delicious mushrooms, right?

"What!?

"I grow mushrooms that smell good... well good.

"... let me hear it one day.

"If you get a chance... and you're talking about an empty moat.

It's this moat... but on the dug slopes, I'll try to stone up and increase the strength.

Plus, if it's a stone pile, I think it's less repaired than just digging.

"Is the stone pile a brick?

"Bricks would be good for buildings, but...

I don't know you made it into a moat or river, do I?

Takeo said in his head, "There was no barbecued stone walls, was there??? Think."

"Um... how do we collect natural stones... that's not a problem either.

"... why don't we let the magicians make a ton of them in stone?

Trained to produce the same output every time.

"Um... that's not one hand.

"Yes.

And you want to build the castle gate on both sides, not the front.

Takeo writes the castle gate to the left and right of the walls

"Hmm? Isn't that inconvenient?

"Really?

It's easier to come in from the front of the city... but defensively, you think there is.

Besides, if you only use one side for the entrance and the other side for the exit, there will be no traffic inconvenience, and it will be easier to check and manage the load? and. Will the width of the road leading to each castle gate be easy to accommodate for about two carriages...

Well, so I was wondering if it should be a castle wall - open moat 7m - road - earth base - plants - forest.

So, within the walls, go straight through the current castle gate and create a path that leads from about 400m to the gates on both sides.

Takeo makes a T-shaped intersection in the painting.

"We will set up a soldier packing lot on all the frontal piercing sections from the current castle gate.

Later it opens up as a commercial district. I've been thinking about how I wish I could have a lodging, restaurant, or factory.

"Hmm, that's an interesting idea.

... well, for now, this proposal is not something we can do right now.

Frederick, give it to the city planning department for consideration.

I think I'll have to do some expansion someday.

"Yes, I'm in awe.

Frederick gets Takeo's graffiti and gets nostalgic.
