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

Takeo and Frederick were in front of the conference room door in the government building.

"Oh... I'm nervous.

"Hehe, this is what they've been through, isn't it?

"Something similar... I always do nervousness.

Besides, in my case, I decided to discuss it beforehand, and I also decided in advance on the explanatory content, until I questioned the assumptions.

"You've been here since you've had enough content to prep.

"Yeah. But this time I'm only preparing the explanatory content of the three proposals.

Well... I wish I could answer any questions you might have.

"Master Takeo would be fine.

Because I've been doing it right until now.

"Highly appreciated is... well, I'll do my best.

"Yes. So shall we go?

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

The door to the meeting room opens and two men come in.

The executives in the conference room are standing up.

"Good luck, everyone.

Takeo's over here.

"Yes."

And when the two of them get to their seats, everyone sits down.

The desk in the conference room was arranged in a round table.

Each is preceded by a department name plate.

"Well. Gentlemen, this is Lady Kitamizato.

Takeo takes his seat when Frederick says so.

"Nice to meet you all.

This is Takeo Kitamizato, engaged to Alice Henry Elvis.

Best regards,

and thank everyone lightly and take a seat.

"Heh heh, that was easy, huh? Well, it'll be good.

So, Master Takeo. From this side, the General Secretary, the Finance Director, the Economy Director, the Maintenance Director, the Environment Director and the Military Department are the Knights and Soldiers Directors.

And I'm the North Town Director, the East Town Director, the South Town Director, and the West Town Director.

Takeo meets with each said director of the bureau.

"Now, these are the civilians of Elvis territory, the executives of the martial arts officers.

Dear Takeo, can I help you?

"... especially... ah, shall I say it first?

Director Kitamachi.

"Ha... yes!

Randall is suddenly called and nervous.

"Exploring alcohol. I'm sorry.

I received it last night and it was delicious for everyone.

The president of the winery brought it directly.

"It arrives safely and more importantly.

"Yes.

You know, the alcohol isn't very strong... was it okay to try it at the winery?

"was, to be honest, the first Brandy tasting, but I was wondering if I managed to get in shape.

"Hehe, is that right?

That alcohol is what I call 'whiskey' at my place.

They haven't decided on a name yet here... and I'd like to sell it in 'whiskey' if I can.

"Yes."

"As for reporting, right?

We had a meeting this morning at Mr. Law's liquor store in this city, but it's going to be a haul to sign a contract with Mr. Law and the winery, and with my three.

"Yes."

"I can't say on this occasion what the contract is about...

Maybe as early as now, you've decided to buy and sell all the barrels of whiskey?

"What? Is it all barrels?

"Yeah.

And the plan is to make this whiskey popular from the taverns of this city.

Well, even when I say plan, I leave it to Mr. Law.

"Whiskey, a new alcoholic beverage made in North Town, is to be held by you all with today's souvenirs.

Frederick adds that.

"For once, there are four basic ways to drink this whiskey, so drink whatever you want.

It also contains notes on how to make it, so enjoy yourselves.

Be careful not to drink too much.

Each director laughs bitterly at Takeo's words.

"That's all about alcohol.

Takeo says to Frederick.

"Yes, then, Dear Takeo, on the matter of securing factory land that I told you this morning. Explain."

"Yes.

I shall now describe the history and the current situation and the content of yesterday's meeting.

Takeo started explaining Trench Court's factory project.

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

"So the two real estate businesses in the north and south of the city began in-house consideration to secure land.

That is two proposals, but as far as I am concerned I would also like to come up with a proposal that the Elvis family buy up farmland as a third proposal and lend it to the Union.

That's it. "

"Yes, I understand.

It feels like it was added to what I distributed in the morning... but what happened at the meeting?

"Yes. This project will be headed by our Maintenance Bureau, which will come to the presentation, the source of cooperation between the Finance Bureau and the Economic Bureau.

Dear Kitamizato, may I ask you a question?

"Yes."

"The farmland proposal could really be inferior to the north and south of the city, what do you think of that area?

"Hmm... I'll return the question before I say my thoughts, why do you think I'm inferior in the first place?

"It is still not facing the front and back streets, so it is expected to take time to move the luggage.

"Right.

The city south proposal is likely to be seen as the best candidate...

The reason for this is that it is located closest to the tailor's store manager, so the advantages are that it is easy to instruct work and close to major streets... but to the contrary, it has the disadvantage of congestion in order for people to be there all the time.

The North of the City proposal is clear, because there is less traffic than the South of the City, it is possible that you will be able to leave the main streets sooner than the South of the City.

And both the city north proposal and the city south proposal have the greatest advantage of saying that securing land close to impoverished areas will help combat poverty.

Then, by contrast, it's an agricultural proposal... but if you think of it as the greatest benefit, it would be its future.

"Is it future?

"Yep. We're trying to secure the 300m ² lot in anticipation of it being as large as three times its current size.

but... 20 years from now... if you want to make it even bigger, I think it's good for the future to be able to buy up the farmland right next door and not have to bother splitting the plant, relocating it.

Also, it's the travel distance of the luggage car... if the farmland is secured the same distance as the castle gate and the back castle gate.

I don't consider it a downside to that because I can choose a street for those who aren't crowded.

And since it's not a residential area around, we can load it until late at night... and you won't get complaints if you make a noise.

And because of the conversion of agricultural land, can the cost of buying land be kept lower in the first place than the city south proposal or the city north proposal?

It's a public sector purchase, so it minimizes costs. Want an advantage in your monthly rent?

From the above, as far as I'm concerned, I don't see the proposed agricultural land as having any less advantages than others.

Makes Takeo's explanation attract the faces of each director, "Is that all you think about?"

"Okay. We will be briefed and give you even more compelling consideration.

The Director of Maintenance bows his head.

"Okay, please.

"Director of Maintenance, please give me a summary of the rest.

Once the presentation is scheduled in two months, the date of implementation will be determined as soon as the tailor union's intentions are confirmed.

Nice.

"Yes, I'm in awe.

"So here's the next one.

Frederick will summarize the site project.
