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

"That's until you enter and leave the Katlanda Empire, isn't it?

Takeo was talking about the events of his journey again.

Grandpa Elvis, Smith and Frederick were listening with their arms together.

"Um... there's nothing about the workshop, the Victors, the Third Princess.

Takeo, you got a few good points?

"Yes."

"Do you think the Katlanda Empire is in full-scale offensive preparation?

"Yes.

Economic cooperation is taking place in two countries. Imports and exports of all items may adversely affect industry in your country because cheap items come in and out of other countries.

Then the reason for a massive redevelopment in East Town at such a time is to create large quantities of weapons.

I don't know if it's a cheap weapon or a high weapon, but I was wondering if it would be a good idea to think that some kind of military policy was working.

I do not know if that is the Kingdom of Azpur or the Wilip Union or where it is headed, but I think it is a phase of optimism.

"Hmm... I see.

The man I met in front of the workshop... did I mention Seijo?

Didn't he know about the gun?

"Yes.

At least I was familiar with how to handle small arms, and I'm pretty sure I created a scope for small arms.

As you've seen earlier, the scope is a piece of equipment that looks at distant objects.

Although he has never seen or heard of it in the Kingdom of Azpur.

"Hmm... you're the one whose gear and behavior deviate from normal thinking.

Did such a man visit the manufacturer... for the purpose of purchasing or pulling out?

"Was it good or bad from the people in the workshop...

If I went to the man, I might have gotten a lot of money.

It works for me, and we make our own money... "

"If it's just a hypothesis, there's no limit.

But as a result, I came under Takeo.

The rest depends on their motivation.

Plus, as it stands, we're gonna make a ton of pocket watches, right?

I guess I'm generally satisfied because the atmosphere wasn't shaded when I greeted you earlier.

Says Grandpa Elvis as he looks at the pocket watch given to him by Takeo in his description of the Katlanda Empire.

"Right.

Dear Takeo, when Wang Du gave me a diagnosis of the laboratory, I told the head of the city's workshop union that there was a possibility that the laboratory could be integrated and decommissioned.

Frederick comes to supplement.

"Really?

In my opinion, the research institute has asked me to build the prototype in the workshop where I brought it, and I think the actual production will be produced and sold in the contracted workshop.

"I see.

Does that mean there doesn't seem to be any consolidation?

"No, the current number of people is not enough to make a pocket watch.

So I want to take in a few workshops to make the clock.

Furthermore, for shields that will be the first product of the laboratory, it should be considered as one year in the design and prototyping period and be allowed to pass to the soldiers of the three counts in a year or two of manufacture.

"... Frederick, what was the standing number of shields?

Was it like a hundred?

Grandpa Elvis says as he looks in the direction the day after tomorrow.

"Lord, do not make light reality escapes.

It usually brings together 5,000 soldiers. Considering that the inner horse riders will be 700 in the Knights alone and the rest in five rows, 860-950 will expand on the front.

The shield, as the first two columns have... will need at least 1800.

"... 1800 for two years. It's tough.

"Dear Takeo, if it's only Elvis territory, it's about 350, but I was wondering how many of these could be done in the whole city.

Takeo worries with his arms together.

Don't disturb Takeo's reflections, Grandpa Elvis. Wait for your thoughts to come together.

"If you make good things, you can just make them and sell them..."

... I haven't either, have I? Were you a little overly optimistic about the outlook?

Takeo thinks and sighs about the way Bradley and the others sold a while ago.

"Dear Takeo, have you come together?

Alice asks.

"Yeah, you're still an ordinary person.

I believed the shield was high performance, so I assumed everyone would buy it soon (...).

I forgot the basics that if you want to sell things, you can't sell them (...) until you sell them.

"Hmm, how did you make the fix in Takeo?

"The most important part of my actions is to protect the Elvis family.

But you won't need to change it all at once until you make it impossible. It'll be difficult financially, and...

Mr. Frederick, how many shields do you replace each year (...)?

"Oh? Master Takeo, have you noticed?

"I guess... when we talked about the shield earlier, Mr. Elvis said, 'Stand by'.

Is it possible that the shield is held by the Earl?

"Mm-hmm. Because swords and equipment have personal tastes. I make them buy each one, but I don't always carry the shield equipment, so I lend it to them at the Count's house in times of war.

"Was I?

"Dear Takeo, the shields are usually exchanged every four years, and the Elvis family has 400 on hand and deployed everywhere.

I decide to change it 100 times a year.

Frederick explains.

"100... what about size and cost?

"The shield on Elvis territory is unified at a size of 1mx1.5m.

Was it around 110 gold coins for 100 pieces?

"Is it 1mx1.5m? It seems big and inconvenient to carry.

Takeo was thinking of something smaller.

"The Elvis family shield will only be a shield placed on the ground and used to prevent a wartime opponent from storming.

"I see, is it an interception?

... First of all, I'll do a prototype of the shield at the lab and ask you to think about manufacturing again when you can get something satisfactory.

"Um, yeah.

"Right.

I guess we can't help arguing about things that we haven't been able to do yet.

Grandpa Elvis and Frederick nod.

"Yes."

Takeo snorted too.
