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

The topic had moved to the wholesale market proposed by Erica.

Erica had distributed the materials she had prepared in advance to everyone and had completed the summary description.

"Um... report or letter. I knew the contents beforehand..."

Jesse is listening arm in arm.

"I read that report, too... but, Your Highness, William, you thought much of it.

Temple also makes a difficult face.

"The proposal was made by Erica, but it was the Third Prince family (us) and the new directors of our bureau who sanctioned it.

Now I think it would be interesting to realize something called a new distribution.

"3 The purpose is to gather supplies from noble lands and set up a place to buy what you want in each of them, right?

Smith, who knows what Takeo thinks, asks William.

"Initially Smith is right.

At this stage, the goal was to have you come from a territory other than ours.

"Where else but the Three Noble Territories?

"We can provide anything in Wang Du in a crude way, so there's no point in bringing it out of Wang Du?

Jesse and Temple ask as they make a strange face.

"Brother Neil, they also picked a rare grain from the place above, so they're going to sell it.

"" Second prince territory... "

"More participants means you have expectations that the buyer will (...) spread.

Smith says pleasantly.

Jesse and Temple only set their sights on Smith.

"You seem to be thinking about logistics on the ship... but what about it, actually?

Temple asks.

"... Erica, what's the status quo?

"Yes, Your Highness Leila.

Ladies and gentlemen, with regard to the earlier material, it will only be for the general description of the Civilian and other nobles of the King's Capital (...).

In our current overall process within the Third Prince family, we will finish building the city's zoning and mansion by the time His Royal Highness moves.

Furthermore, we believe that one year after being transferred, we will strive to put businesses in the agricultural and specialist offices and other territories on track, and that two or three years from now we will start testing operations on the wholesale market, and four years from now we will be operating in full.

If you have been placed, please take a tour during the test operation and confirm the operation details, etc.

"As for the future process, Erica explains.

Well, this wholesale market business also comes with river water remediation projects... "

"We can do it from our home to Your Highness's realm without any problems.

"We'll do something about it by the time we're fully operational as it's all the way to Count Godwin territory.

"Mm-hmm... if we are fully operational in 4 years, I think we can maintain it by then, including the port of unloading, etc.

Temple, Smith and Jesse report as they consider their current business in the Territory.

"Really?

To be honest, the wholesale market made it fully operational in four years' time, because it's going to be two years before we embark on water treatment projects in our territory.

So I think it would be desirable for you all to move towards 4 years from now.

"" "Yes.

Three chief classes of aristocrats respond to William's request.

"The Second Laboratory Director, by the way.

I hear you're talking about prototyping a small or medium-sized transport vessel, but as things stand, is it going to be possible to operate in three years (...)?

Erica asks Takeo.

"I'm sorry, Consultant, but I can only answer that 'difficult as it is'.

"Is that true?

"Consultant, the way the ship operates as it stands is a sailboat of a type that will be sailed and winded.

In contrast, what I do in my laboratory is that those with magical aptitudes become captains and develop drives that do not rely on the wind (...).

In short, it is the development of a ship that goes on even if it is windless.

It is not possible at present (...) to put that into practice by three years from now at a stage where we have not even built a theory.

But I'm the one who advocated it, so let me just say that with some glory, it's difficult in the present situation.

I'll make an effort. I will also work hard to find personnel and places where they can do prototypes.

But let me assure you that practical application in three years' time will be 'difficult as it stands'.

"Really... then please report back to me on the progress of the transport vessel.

"Okay.

Takeo nods.

"Your Highness William, as expected...

It's still difficult (...). "

"Yeah. You'd be right if you were to make the decision that even Mr. Takeo is difficult.

If you want the talent or materials you need, I can help you, too. Is there anything?

"Right... can you introduce me to someone who can design a ship?

"Hmm...

Count Temple, is it possible to introduce Mr. Takeo to a craftsman who won't be shielded?

"... it must be difficult for a major shipman.

Because they're stubborn.

... We will select it after we return to our territory and send the list to Lord Kitamizato.

"Yeah. Is that good for Mr. Takeo, too?

"Yes, you can be slightly younger.

I don't mind if you tell me who's willing and greedy to do something new.

"Okay, then that's it.

"Transport ships should be considered and operated on sailboats for now.

And since we're going to and from the four territories, we'd like to discuss shipping coverage, security issues, and traffic rules with our owners again after we move to the territory.

"" "Yes.

William's three chief classes of aristocracy replied.
