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

Everyone went back to their room, but Takeo and Meyer stayed in the dining room.

"Director. You threatened the Bertes.

"I'm not threatening you, though.

The Berte family's role is to make rice in one.

Cultivate the seeds bought this time in two and see if there are any items available on Elvis territory.

Suppose we make the varietal improvements to the existing crops just mentioned in the three.

"What was the reason for those three?

"Perhaps the Bertes won't be able to make a living from rice alone.

If you say that, like other existing farmers, you will not have a distribution route, so you will be disadvantaged by the wholesale value.

You can buy it at the Count's house, but then I don't think the city's union will shut up.

Then I won't accept it from everyone unless I add value.

As I said earlier, I think it's easy for everyone to accept that they handle crop seeds, such as sweet potato seed imos, seed imos that make a lot of shipped child potatoes, etc.

I want the Bertes to be more of a seedling farmer than a regular farmer.

The seller sells to the farmer, not the average household.

So we need to always make an effort to maintain quality and keep it steadily supplied.

"... you've thought hard.

"... To be honest, not many people would want to eat crops made by other races... think there would be that much prejudice.

Takeo lowers his gaze and says Boso.

"... it's certainly not strange to have.

Then you make seed imos, find their value, and let other farmers create crops for the average household.

"Yeah.

Just put one in the consumer's hands and people will change the way they see it.

Besides, I'm also referring to the producer as someone who raised more than the source of the seed when looking at the farmer.

... but I'm sure I find this method quite difficult as well.

If only the seed imo delivered by the Berte family in one year had been hit by wind and earth disease and misbehaved, perhaps more prejudice could erupt against a species called elves than a family.

So you have to see what's good and what's bad by the time you sell it, tell the farmer exactly, and then let him ship it.

It will probably take years with one breed.

Besides, it feels different that I direct you from the beginning, doesn't it?

I hired an expert (...), so for now, I need you to think about what you can do to improve the variety...

"I see.

And what I said at this stage, you make me think a little longer.

"It's only about now that we can think slowly that we're going to start building fields early when we get over there.

You won't be able to imagine it since you started making fields.

"Perhaps so.

Meyer nods.

"And I've made something like this.

Takeo spreads his notebook to his desk.

"Is this an organization chart?

"Yes.

Meyer will put the Beltes and Nilde, Gilda and Assena under Victor's control for a summary of the test platoon and the researchers.

Steno Technologies, the Howorth Chamber of Commerce, etc. are only my collaborators, right?

This is also under Victor's jurisdiction, but only money exchanges, etc.

"And yet... agriculture is your direct jurisdiction.

As the director said earlier, you can't make a profit, can you?

"... agriculture-related personnel will work basically on a salary from us.

The base salary is... well, probably low, so do you get the missing portion out of the crop sales?

Let Assena own a store to sell rice, new varieties of vegetables and varietally improved crops.

If rice and seeds are to be bought regularly... well. There won't be any sales for the time being.

Is it the sales of vegetables for precision coffee shops?

In the meantime, more farmers are going to make it if it gets popular in our coffee shop.

"With that said, Lord Assena was a salesman.

But it was other industries... could you?

"I'm a salesperson in another industry, but I think it's faster to get used to it than someone who doesn't know anything.

Either way, you need creativity.

Farmer opponents are the basics... so that sounds tough.

In the meantime, would you like to experience the farmers with the Bertes?

"I see.

When you let the farmer experience it and then sell it to the farmer.

"You can't sell stuff unless you know who you're dealing with.

And about rice. It would be for coffee shops and countess mansions at first, too.

Shall I also ask the Count Elvis family for the imported items?

I'll use half of the rice for my hobby anyway.

"Hobbies... do you do well?

"Konoha's gonna do it, right?

Failure will not make a normal failure.

I can just do unsavory alcohol.

"... Mm-hmm. Is it an unsavory drink?

"When I get back to Elvis territory, will I have to ask President Walt, who makes Walt whiskey for the northern town, to borrow about two artisans?

"Really?

"Yeah.

Contractually, the liquor I recall can only be manufactured in northern towns.

Konoha will stand on your head this time, but only knowledge will explain it.

So I have to borrow someone who actually moves.

Alice, you can't even let a lady go every day.

I'll even borrow it somewhere and have it brewed.

"Do you borrow that too... do you have the funds?

"... I guess I'll ask the investors in Wangdu.

Takeo says Boso.

"Do you burn the royal family?

"It's not necessarily royal, is it?

Just say royalty is the first thing that speaks...

Ma. I don't expect them to ignore me and Conoha when they say they're going to make new booze.

"Director. You look bad.

"Oops.

I'm not really worried about the funds for that reason, and if not, I don't have a problem with it, as we can all think about it in Earl Elvis territory.

"In the meantime, I found that there was a lot to do in every department.

Meyer snorted half-hearted.
