A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 393 Discover Pocket Watch 2. Invitation to Elvis territory.
"Really?
By the way, where are you going after closing?
I also want you to maintain your pocket watch, so please tell me where to go.
"Well... you haven't actually decided yet...
I'm thinking about going around the village to the east for now.
"?... do you close the store without deciding where to go?
... that's kind of weird... "
Takeo said, "Hmm?," he says, twisting his face.
"Yeah, well... there's a situation.
Alejo makes a difficult face.
"Really... well... good.
There will be circumstances, and...
Really... haven't you decided where to migrate... "
"I'll let you know when I've decided where to settle..."
Alejo says sorry.
"Hmm?... Mrs Meyer, what do you think?
Takeo talks to Meyer.
"Lord Kitamizato, can't you help it because either way it takes time?
"Right...
So, Vicente, how many of these pocket watches do you have?
"Erm... if you match the wagon with the inside of the box... there are probably about 50 of them.
"50..."
Takeo said in his head, "You're from the Elvis family, right? They're from the lab, right?..." begins to conceive.
"Um... what's up?
Alejo gets anxious and asks because Takeo shut up.
"No... I thought it wasn't enough.
Takeo says with a difficult face.
"" Huh!?
Vicente parents and children are surprised.
"How many pocket watches can you produce per month?
"... there are fine parts, etc... I was wondering if I could make about 5 a month.
Takeo narrows his eyes without saying anything.
"Lord Kitamizato, how many do you want, by the way?
Follett asks.
"Minimum 20 monthly births.
"" Yeah!?
Vicente parents and children are surprised.
"What's wrong?
Meyer asks Alejo.
"No... I didn't see this product coming at all..."
"Hmm? Really?... and it's 5 monthly births... that's too little.
"Yes, my son makes it all by himself... and most of the parts were made in different workshops, so when it comes to making them himself... there will be fewer pieces.
"... hmm... is that right?
Um... Vicente manager, son, are you coming to our house?
"Huh?"
"As far as I'm concerned, I want you to make 20 a month... so why don't you start a business in the city I'm in?
There's a problem with the parts... but I'll provide some funding, including those, so could you increase the number of people in the workshop a little bit?
"Huh?... is that... good?
"Good or bad, I just want you to make it.
I'd also like to go to the city as an industry if I can... and if you don't want to, you can say no, right?
Ah... just... "
"Just?"
"We are not human beings in the Katlanda Empire, we are human beings in the Kingdom of Azpur.
It's conditional on you changing your country.
"" Yeah!?
Vicente parents and children are surprised.
Takeo explained why he came to this country (the replicator of the sword).
"Really... look for Mr. Steno Workshop..."
Alejo groans as he nods.
"Yeah, it looks like they were out of business, so... we just have to give up.
"Really... do you have time to think?
Alejo asks Takeo.
"I'm sorry... but we're only willing to be in this town for at least two more days.
There is no Steno workshop, so there is no point in staying.
So Vicente Store Manager. Decide now.
Do you want to come with us and start a clock workshop, or do you want to start over in the Empire like this?
If you're not willing to leave the empire where you were born and raised, you can't do that either.
I know where you're born is important.
"Hmm..."
Alejo puts his arms together and worries.
"... is proof that I am of the kingdom of Azpur.
But you can't say anything about me here.
Allow me to introduce myself again after crossing the border.
and Takeo show Alejo the crossing permit.
Vicente parents and children see the crossing permit as serious and confirm that Takeo and the others are not lying and are even more troubled.
"... Vicente Store Manager.
I'll borrow one pocket watch.
In exactly 3 hours... I'll be back, so make up your mind by then.
I'm sorry, but that's about the time I can give you guys.
"... okay.
"Okay, I'll be free once.
Takeo takes his seat and puts his crossing permit in the inner pocket of his coat.
"Gentlemen, I'm coming.
Everyone takes a seat at Takeo's hanging voice and leaves the store.
"Thank you for the tea.
It might be interesting to follow this guy, right?
Follett, who was walking at the rear of the line, left in a gentle voice to Vicente's parents and children.
------------------------
Takeo and the others left Vicente Workshop in front of the store.
"Lord Kitamizato, what will you do after this?
Meyer asks.
"Hmm?... would you like to take a look at the front street a little?
I don't want to wander around here and be found by the soldiers earlier.
"Three hours... well... what decision does that parent make?
Lord Kitamizato, what would you do if you couldn't?
Arkin asks.
"I don't mind if I don't.
In doing so, I will buy a pocket watch and let the blacksmiths on Elvis territory replicate it.
I just invited him to move because the replication seems troublesome.
May I? The fact that things were made and sold also proves that you can do the same thing by following the same steps.
I want people because I skip thinking about procedures.
"Yes."
Arkin nods.
"Now, do you want to blah blah blah for about 3 hours?
Takeo and the others headed toward the front street.
------------------------
Takeo and the others left and the store at Vicente Workshop was silent.
"... Dad.
Bachito speaks to Alejo.
"Yeah... what do you think?
"I think we should go.
There's no place for us in the Empire anymore... then I think we can rely on that one to relaunch in New Heaven and Earth.
He knew the concept of watches well, and he's not going to treat us without... "
"Right... yeah...
We won't be able to have a relapse in this empire anymore because the Union of Mages is blinding its eyes.
... Bakito, bring Mr. Sintron in.
Sure enough, those people are in the store today... and with that guy, we can make watch parts.
I want you to hear my thoughts.
"Okay, I'll bring them right in.
Baquito left the store.
"... New Heaven and Earth... well, it doesn't change where you go from scratch.
Then it's more likely that starting a business in a land where the clock is completely unknown... "
Alejo was determined to emigrate.
