A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 284: Day 2 of the Journey Preparing for dinner tomorrow and a conversation with the platoon leader.
Takeo is currently cooking admirably by buying various ingredients and bottles.
Cookware such as frying pans and pans are borrowed from the inn.
Alice killed her time reading magazines she bought all over town, and Mia is taking a nap.
"Um... Master Takeo, what are you making?
"Hmm? I'm making meat for tomorrow night now.
"Isn't it dried meat?
"You're not. I'm cooking a dish called Roast Beef.
"Roast beef... um... what is that?
"Hmm? That's the dish where you cook the chunky surface of beef and then steam it later.
I'll have a tasting in a little while.
"Yes! I'm waiting!
Takeo cooks while listening to Alice's cheerful voice.
Roast beef is being admirably steamed in a pan.
Takeo is now frying onions in meat broth, making sauces while simmering tomato and apple rinds, a little red wine and a bit of shredded garlic.
Takeo is boiling for now... but I was a little anxious to see if it would work.
"Well, worst of all, do you even wear apple jam?" and also explore alternatives.
Moisture has flown in a good way, so transfer to a bottle for the jam I bought.
Remove the roast beef from the pan, cut a few ends, and then watch the baking add or subtract.
I take it to my desk with my current sauce on a few pieces I cut as complete because the blood from the meat doesn't come out.
"Yes, it's a tasting ~."
"" Tasting!!
Running over at the fastest it feels like Alice and Mia have said whether this is still the case.
"Is that it? Mia, wasn't she asleep?
"It happened with the word tasting!
Takeo smiles bitterly at the words.
"Well, I made the sauce appropriately, shall we eat it to see if it fits?
"" Yes ""
3 people start eating roast beef.
"Hmm... a little short of salt?
"The meat is delicious.
"Hmm, are you sure it's a little thin? But the direction of the taste of the sauce seems okay.
Shall I add a pinch of salt later?
"Please. So, Master Takeo, is this tomorrow's dinner?
"Isn't that right?
Alice, don't ladies really like the saltiness of dried meat, do they?
So since this was all I had in me when it came to meat dishes other than that.
Because at worst I was thinking about putting this meat in the soup.
"Oh, did you remember?
"Hmm? Different?
"No... thank you.
"Hehe. You'd like to have a delicious dinner at Nojuku anyway, wouldn't you?
Now, will the roast beef take the water and turn it into a basket?
And do you want to start preparing for dinner today?
Takeo takes his seat and tries to return to the kitchen.
"Yes! Please!
Alice answered with a full smile.
------------------------
"Ha... I'm satisfied.
"I'm hungry.
After dinner Alice and Mia are drinking their tea after dinner satisfactorily.
Takeo sees Nico with those two.
"Dear Takeo, are you ready for breakfast tomorrow, lunch, dinner, breakfast and lunch the day after tomorrow... for a total of five meals?
"It's done.
I'll take it with me except for breakfast tomorrow, so I crushed the bread thinly though.
"Oh... I knew you didn't come in.
"I added that sauce, mayonnaise, apple jam, salt, ham, dried meat, dried shiitake, carrots, potatoes, apples, oranges and bread to the roast beef.
"That's a big load.
"Right. Plus I have a biscuit in my pocket for Mia.
"Lord!"
Mia hugs Takeo to Takeo's words.
"Well, the more I eat, the less I plan to pack.
"I see."
"I really wanted to add other vegetables.
You couldn't get into the boulder.
Takeo laughs couscous.
"Well, it's the two of us, so you can't help it, can you?
"A carriage might be better at times like this because you can put a lot of things on it.
Now, do you want to get ready for Yuami?
Takeo was headed to the hot tub.
------------------------
Takeo enjoys his clothes in front of the inn.
I was never kicked out of the room because Alice would do the water.
"Oh... you're tired today."
Takeo looks around the left and right of the road and observes those walking.
No one had a gloomy look on their face and everyone was relaxing.
You can hear some fun laughs coming from the tavern, and the streets are ragged.
"Mr. Elvis and the others have good governance, don't they?" I admire it.
The town and village are relaxed.
A face walks down the street that I find wondering if there is less dissatisfaction if the end of the territory looks like this.
"Hmm? Captain North Platoon?
Takeo makes a voice out of it.
North, called by name, is surprised to see Takeo and approaches him.
"Dear Kitamizato, why are you here?
"No, I'm traveling to Wang Du.
"Oh, did I?
With that said, it's like the soldier chief was saying that... "
"Ha, what about Captain North?
"I came to this town with patrol training for the 17th Platoon.
"How's the rookie?
"You move better than usual.
It still looks like the big exercises ahead and the actual battle have been a good experience.
"That's above all.
Well, I'd hate to have that actual fight every year.
Takeo laughs bitterly.
"Absolutely.
I'm here as a teacher, but I've had a lot of scolding this year and it's hard to find coarse.
North also laughs bitterly.
"Ha, you can't point out too unreasonably, can you?
"I know.
Because the instructors have already met around there.
"And yes. Because that training is over in this town?
"No. I'm going with North Town, East Town and South Town before returning to the city.
What's the matter, sir?
"No, if you get a chance to go to a liquor store in town, write me a copy of the item.
"Yes? For what?
"What's common and sold in 4 town taverns,
And you want to see what's special about it.
Soldiers are likely to go to a tavern closer to the people.
"I see... I get it.
Include it in your training so you can write it down at the previous store you went to.
"Huh? You don't have to make it that big, do you?
"No, aren't I supposed to be 1st Platoon?
The investigation is for real, so I thought I'd combine my training to see the difference in town as part of it.
"Hehe, is that right?
That sounds like an interesting training. Well, I don't want to take it.
"Ha, it's a nasty training if you do get one, isn't it?
And I'm with this. Dinner with the other instructors.
"Yes, good luck.
"Now if you'll excuse me.
North disappeared into the crowd.
"Well, do you want to go to bed?
Takeo went back to his room.
