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

Takeo walked into Low's liquor store.

"Hello, uncle.

"Dear Kitamizato, welcome.

Excuse me. The store is busy with year-end stuff, ho ho ho. "

There were a lot of shoppers looking around the store.

"No, this is how business has to be.

"Dear Kitamizato, what is it for you?

"It's about Walt whiskey.

"Hmm...

Shall we talk in the back?

and Low took Takeo to the back of the store with a serious look on his face.

When I get to my seat, Low serves tea.

"Thank you.

"No. So what is Walt Whiskey talking about when it's the end of the year?

"Right... there's one difficult decision for my uncle and one story about future prospects...

Which one do you want to hear from?

"... from those who are difficult.

"Really?

Now for Walt whiskey, we would like to sell 450 copies of 15% (...) of the production of 3000 copies per year for the first three years, and 1800 copies of 15% of 12,000 copies for off-territorial use starting in four years' time.

Well, you can say it a little more harshly... but this will be enough for your uncle.

"... are you selling it out of your territory from the first time?

Dear Kitamizato, what developments do you have in mind?

"We are now multiplied by the availability of grain called rice, which is said to be produced in the elf territory of the next demonic kingdom.

"Are you the elf of the demonic kingdom?

And a cereal called rice... "

"Yep. I want to try to grow that grain in the territory and make a new breed of liquor (...) for the slowness.

Low makes me look stunned.

"Still, the first few or a dozen years will fail, but if we can do this, there will be another one-of-a-kind drink out there.

As far as we're concerned, we want to make sure we get rice first. To do this, we want to raise the prestige of the Elvis family (...) in the Demonic Kingdom.

"You think one end of it is Walt Whiskey?

"Whoa, I'll use the uster sauce, too.

The point is, the Elvis family wants to make you think that they have the ability (...) to create new ingredients.

And we want to make sure we get the rice and do the cultivation on this land.

"... Dear Kitamizato, does the Count know the idea?

"Yep. I'm already starting to consider (...) where to build a new (...) village.

I am breathing when I wait to get it and then say it makes no sense to consider it and put the draft to the New Year's Bureau meeting.

"Mm-hmm..."

Low puts his arms together and troubles him.

"However, this new breed of liquor has not established a manufacturing method.

So you might be able to do it the next day, and you might come able to do it in your next son's place, not your uncle's.

To be clear, this will be an investment for the future.

Unlike what I said Walt Whiskey or Wuster Sauce can sell (...) I know (...), it can be an area of betting where I don't even know if it can be made delicious or sold.

"... but Master Kitamizato... at least come to think you can make it, right?

Like Walt whiskey.

"That's a diversion of an existing facility. It's natural to be able to do it.

Rather, Walt whiskey was more of a question of what the taste was like.

... Finally, the maturation period of the new breed of liquor that I consider to be one year.

"That's short!?

Aged in a year and had good liquor?

"We believe it is desirable to establish a way to create booze first, and then determine the flavor.

Well, I think you need a ton of rice to make a new breed of liquor.

"We have to make a lot of rice first.

To do that, use your current Walt whiskey. But you think you should get it?

"In the opinion of the rulers, there are only a few specialties in the territory that are good.

I don't know about demand... but Walt whiskey will also be a headache at some point.

What is the maximum demand expected when it spreads successfully?

"... don't tell Mr. Walt.

I expect domestic demand to be up to 60000 bottles per year.

"What do you think outside the country?

"Mm-hmm... I was wondering if I should have 10,000 bottles.

"It's 12,000 in four years, but how much would your uncle want you to make?

"... 48000 copies.

We expect 40000 in the country and 8,000 outside the country.

What does Master Kitamizato think?

"If you think about personal purchases, liquor stores, or wholesale entertainment areas where women serve customers.

20,000 in the territory, 50,000 in the surrounding 3 county territories, 20,000 in other countries, 6000 in other countries... can't it be multiplied?

"No... Dear Kitamizato, that number on the boulder...

My 48000 copies are also a fairly promising figure in a good direction.

It would be even more dangerous at this stage.

"Hmm... you might want to look at the status of your order.

And you shouldn't let quality be lost because there's a lot of demand for it.

"Yes.

I teach my sons about the quality around there properly.

And I'm also discussing it with Mr. Walt.

Never imitate a crude product.

"Trust can only build up as a trick, but disapproval spreads at once.

I don't think it would be easy to wipe if the quality got worse.

"Yes."

"And, uncle, can you prepare 450 copies for extraterritorial use?

"... I'll try to get it all together.

Low snorts.

"Yes, please.

Takeo snorted.
