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

Takeo was talking about his organization and the promises he made to Mia and the others.

"Th... that is. Kitamizato said he would be the director of the laboratory. And all of you here, except Lord Bart and Lord Follett, are your men and executive units, right?

And this time, you're on the job of buying slaves suitable for soldiers and trying to incorporate them into the soldier organization in Wangdu.

says Donato as he thinks.

"Yeah.

I'm looking to see if I can buy it now.

So, you're family.

Terminate the slave contract with a 25-year contract, in accordance with national law.

"Is it true!?

"Yes.

So. What do you want me to do?

In Elf Country, there's a cereal called rice, right?

"Yes. Finely, but I'm making it.

No way. "

"I will have rice made in Elvis territory of the kingdom of Azpur, where I live.

"Is that really? Don't you have to fight?

Bona asks in surprise.

"Yes. You don't have to take the initiative to fight for your country.

Well, you might need to get rid of demons and harmful beasts that raze the fields.

"That's... right.

I know I have to protect the field.

Bona nods.

"Don't worry. I'm not asking you to fight unless there's more to it.

"About the rest of it?

"If a ton of demons show up, you want a little help with the boulders.

"Ah. Okay. Let me help you around there.

"Yeah. Please.

No. It's good to see Mr. Berte and the others.

You're lucky to meet someone who can make rice.

"Should I farm for 25 years?

"Right.

You won't be able to make a lot of money because you're unfamiliar with the land.

You can make rice, make vegetables, and make a lot of things.

I'll try to give you a little assistance, but basically you want me to make a living selling crops.

Figure out how to shake yourself after 25 years.

Personally, I'd be glad if you could stay after 25 years of cancellation of the slave contract.

If you want to go home, you can make an offer to Elf Country.

If you want to stay, you can live there afterwards.

But for now, make rice for me.

"Okay... but the seed..."

"It's okay there, too.

It has been decided to import from the Elf Country next to the Demon King's Country.

And then I think if you can make something that will settle in, you can make it while you import it.

"Then."

"Yeah. If you want to be back home in 25 years, you'll be through the merchant corps.

I'm making a connection right now.

All you have to do is make sure you don't interrupt.

"We have to make rice to make it successful, right?

I'll make the best of it, but is there a problem?

"Yeah. You can make it hard.

You might seem like you're having a contradiction at first sight.

No matter how hard you try, Mr Berte and the others have a limit to the crop harvesting height.

Farmers around will not try to make new crops that way either.

In doing so, I believe that imports must be made continuously from elf countries, in the dual sense of subsidized sources until they begin to take root and in the event of inactivity in the territory.

It's okay. Because we won't let each other down.

And I'm willing to make a lot of things. I was wondering if import volumes would suffice?

Huh. I hope you make it soon.

"Also... are you thinking about cooking already!?

Even we elves have extra grain... "

"Hehe. I've been thinking about a few things.

What dishes do the elves cook?

Takeo asks without any concern.

"It's bread, meat and vegetables.

I wonder if it's probably the same as the human race or any other race.

"... what about rice?

"Grind and flour, just like wheat.

Enough to add water and make it a dough.

"Don't you cook?

"What is cooking?

Bona asks the question with a strange face to Takeo's question.

"Er... boil, but is it closest?

Does the act of cooking simmer rice in water but is it close?

Takeo says as he thinks.

"Dear Kitamizato, Even if it's simmered in water, the rice will soon break the prototype... and it will be drooling, and it won't taste good.

"Hmm...

I can't boil it with other beans, and I don't think it would taste good if I boiled the rice alone.

Then I have to powder it like wheat.

"Yes.

Trial and error used to be that I couldn't make it into bread like wheat, but it really doesn't swell.

Besides, wheat is sown in winter and harvested in summer. Once the harvest is over, you can turn to growing vegetables, so it's attractive to be able to make vegetables as well.

Rice is sown ahead in the spring and harvested in the fall, so... you can't make anything during the winter.

"?... don't you make crops in the winter?

Takeo makes me look strange and ask.

"Huh? You don't grow crops in winter.

Are you relaxing in the house in winter? It's normal to go hunting.

Donato says strangely.

Takeo thinks.

He said there must have been vegetables to sow in the autumn mouth and harvest in the winter.

"Do you think a little bit about that area?

Takeo says as he thinks.

"Huh..."

Donato stayed to reply ambiguously.

"Well.

Bye. Shall we go back to the inn?

When Takeo says so, the platoon faces nod.

"Ah... that! Dear Kitamizato,

This is about the Enma you eared to me when I signed the contract!

"... wait until the day after tomorrow.

Takeo says as he narrows his eyes.

"Is it difficult right away?

"No. It's easy to do.

But today, today. Today tomorrow you will be suspicious.

Excuse me, but this is the situation.

Avoid teaching your opponents how to fight.

It's okay. It'll heal.

Enma. Have a little patience, please.

"Yes! I get it!

Regards!

Enma bowed her head.
