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

Before lunch Grandpa Elvis and Smith, and Frederick were sighing around the desk.

"Ha... it's another difficult thing to get from this Takeo.

"Grandpa, this is an interesting policy for me to look at.

Is it difficult?

"Dear Smith, I know it's interesting from the side, but it's financially difficult.

The three of them only think "heh" about the lab, the workshop and Meyer's room.

The lab moves on its own if it asks the Maintenance and Military Departments, and the workshop is fine if you teach the Curtis family to move it.

Meyer's room ends if Takeo corresponds with the Maintenance Bureau and the Curtis family as intended.

... the problem is the nursery.

"Um, financial matters are the biggest problem.

Next is the question of jurisdiction... in which bureau jurisdiction, how much budget is needed, and who is responsible for educating their children... there are many challenges.

"Really?

Although Takeo-sama's idea of hiring former civilian and martial officer women seems to be fully implemented as a way of hiring.

"Indeed, the idea of expanding women's employment is sufficiently implementable.

But keeping someone else's child can be a problem that isn't compensation in case something happens.

I wish I could stick around... this would take a minute.

"Mm-hmm. It's actually a matter of asking the directors to show their wisdom while listening to Takeo.

"Yes.

This writing alone is nothing... "

"Um, I was wondering if I'd talk about this when Takeo and the others get back.

"" Yes.

"Well... is there anything else?

"Looks like Takeo is willing to build a coffee shop on the ground floor of the institute.

Frederick says as he looks at the laboratory drawings and specifications.

"Apparently.

Coffee shop on the ground floor of Takeo's office... isn't it decent?

Grandpa Elvis says as he looks at the day after tomorrow.

"Ha, is it going to be a restaurant serving dishes that satisfy Master Takeo?

Smith smiles and says.

"I don't know that shop, do I?

"I don't even know. How's Frederick?

"When I say the highest cook in this country right now... don't you mean the cook at the Royal Castle or this Elvis mansion?

"Hmm... well, because I'm seeing Takeo cooking.

... I don't know what Takeo is going to do... "

"Lord, I was just thinking... wouldn't this be a benefit to a civilian or a martial officer?

"Hmm? What do you mean?

"Yes.

Master Takeo won't know that much, but there aren't many restaurants in that corner where the institute will be built.

"Well, because it's a government building town with lots of civilian places to work.

"Yes.

So, it's... it's a measure to hold off the civilian, martial arts officer I said before, why don't we make it a discount if we're going to have lunch at this coffee shop?

"Um... instead of raising your salary... no, you feel like your salary has gone up in a way, don't you?

"Yes.

The coffee shop itself will be independent, but the discount will be paid for by the Elvis family, plus the cook will be satisfied with Takeo and everyone if they take turns dispatching two people each month from the Elvis residence.

Some cooks also want to be independent.

Therefore, I was wondering if it would be a good place to learn about cooking, other chores, etc. from purchasing at a coffee shop.

"I see.

It is certainly good to learn how to create menus, exchange funds, and purchase materials throughout the month.

But when we're all independent, it's not sneaky to keep our food... uh... from anyone who says they want to open a store.

If you want to quit to own a store, you have to smile and send it away. "

Grandpa Elvis makes a difficult face.

"Hehe. Lord, isn't it true that no one wants to quit while Master Takeo is here?

"Really... it's the cook's dream to have his own shop, isn't it?

Well, there are people who will say at the Elvis house for the rest of their lives, like our chef, because that's unusual.

"Surely the likes of George will be rare.

"Also about that, let's say we pack it when Takeo gets back.

"Yes.

Finally... Master Takeo is the butler hired... "

"Former Count Fallon and his daughter.

"What shall I do?

"Well... all it says is that Takeo hired a good man.

Besides, he said they'd be working for 25 years for now... but it would be the first time the butler and the family decree have worked.

I'll leave the education to Frederick and the others.

"Yes, I'm in awe.

Education will be provided in the General Inspectorate.

"Um... well, because you look human (...). There's not much confusion.

"Right.

"Grandpa, is your appearance a problem?

"Mm-hmm. Humans attack with something different from themselves.

It starts with appearance and looks for differences (...) in the wind of habits, cultures, and ideas.

Nothing depends on race, not even humans.

"Is that what it is?

"Uhm.

Our common sense in Elvis territory may not be the same as the aristocratic territory facing the Katlanda Empire.

If I said that, if I met him in Wang Du, he could say something.

I don't care.

"Lord, I hope you care there..."

Frederick laughs bitterly.

"Isn't that wonderful?

This common sense, this life suits this land (...) Then there's no choice.

Rather, it makes no sense to talk to the less tolerant who can only use it as an attack material.

"Huh... the Lord gets stubborn in a different way when it comes to talking about race and race.

"Frederick, I'm sorry.

I'm not like this.

Grandpa Elvis laughs bitterly.

"? Frederick, is your grandfather stubborn?

I think you still have the generous idea of acknowledging the Fae in your current story?

"Yeah, I'm stubborn.

The Lord will never bend over acknowledging the Fae race (...).

So I've been advising you for a long time that you could offend someone if you were talking to a heterogeneous dissident... "

"I'm not going to.

But Smith doesn't have to imitate me.

Especially since next year in the dormitory.

Of course, I don't mean to change my mind, but we need to talk to each other.

"Huh..."

"I know that much..."

Smith replies raw and Frederick sighs.

"By the way, what does Smith think of the Fae?

"I haven't seen him much, but... is he a neighbor?

He is one who lives in the neighbouring country, and there are some beastmen in the territory... but the human species and beastmen are the same inhabitants.

I think it is the position of the Lords to treat each other separately.

"Hmm, that's a good answer.

Well, because when I'm in this city, I rarely see the Beast Man. You don't know the essence, but...

When you get back from the dormitory, it's good to take a look around the area.

You know the good and the bad.

"Yes, I understand.

Smith nodded.

"Well, Frederick.

Do you want Curtis to suggest Takeo?

"Okay.

I will be in touch immediately in a formal form (...).

"Uhm.

After Curtis, he was the Director of Maintenance.

"Yes."

Frederick started getting ready to call each of them.
