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

"And Lord Erica and Lord Cassandra.

"I'll see you first.

My name is Erica Kiros and I am a consultant to the Third Prince family.

This is Cassandra, the escort.

"My name is Cassandra Hart.

Erica and Cassandra make a meeting.

"Um. Welcome out.

I've heard a lot from Takeo and Alice, but now I hear they work under His Highness William.

It's hard to build a new city.

"Yes.

There's more to seeing and hearing than I thought.

It's a trial and error every day.

"Uhm.

We are a city of 50,000 people, but did His Royal Highness become a city of 30,000 people because of royal familiarity?

"Um... actually... it's a 30,000 person city right now, but thanks. Every time I overestimated with territorial policies, etc., the population needed and the projected population growth rate increased and went...

Ultimately, if it goes well, it's turning out to be a 50,000 person city... "

Erica says sorry.

"... is that... is that okay?

... 30,000 people, even on the size of a city. It's hard at first... "

"Yes.

His Royal Highness William, His Highness Alma, His Highness Leila, and each director of the bureau have all sorts of plans in a city of 30,000 people saying, 'It can't all work out, so it's okay,' but...

I fear that if we do well and in the case of minimal growth, the opening is getting bigger.

I shouldn't have said it here, but I really wanted to expose it.

I'm sorry to disturb you.

Erica bows her head.

Grandpa Elvis and Frederick are looking at Takeo.

He consistently complains, "Do something."

Takeo said, "Huh? Is that me here? Mr. Elvis will do it," he says with a gaze of dissent, but "Say hello more," Grandpa Elvis defies his gaze.

"... by the way.

The Elvis family is all moving with the willingness to make the population 80,000 to 90,000 in 15 years.

Takeo says without changing his complexion.

"Huh?... now it's 50,000, so... 1.5 times?

Erica sees a surprise Takeo.

"Yeah. Clothes, sauce, booze and rice are the fabric stones for that.

If this fails, it's going to be a big deal... and we're moving because we think it's going to work.

But that's why I'm not looking to build an additional 80,000 people in the city right now.

You just have to let them build more when you need them.

So isn't it good with a 30,000 person city plan as it stands now for now?

Now that we're 50,000, why don't we just expand?

"Mr. Takeo. That easy.

"It's not at this conceptual stage for a governor to think hard.

Why don't we implement it and fix it if there's a problem?

You never have to make it a city of 50,000 people because the assumption is now 50,000.

"Is that what it is?

"Erica thinks too much about the future.

You can't even think about it at all, but we don't have 30,000 people at the moment, do we?

"Yes. He said it was still a little over 10,000.

"How many years from now will it be 50,000?

If there aren't enough people, there will inevitably be people from somewhere.

Now all you have to do is figure out how to make it 30,000 people in front of you.

"Is that so?

"Yeah. I think so.

Now is the time to consolidate.

You can't worry about getting more out of the estimates.

Estimates are estimates. It's a good story if people start living in a city the size of it, and if they run out of it, they'll come for a request.

"Really..."

Erica thinks.

"Erica, by the way. What caused the assumption to go from 30,000 to 50,000?

Alice asks.

"... that's what we don't all know.

We each try to take in the accumulated policies of other cities and territories so far and make it work, but when we add up to the estimates of each department, the 30,000 people urban plan becomes 50,000.

I repeated the estimates over and over again... the assumed arrivals, shipments and crop turnover are in accordance with the reference values based on the actual results.

I don't know.

Erica makes me look tired.

"Mm-hmm... why do 30,000 city estimates result in 50,000 city results?

Alice also thinks.

"... Erica.

His Highness William's city had commercial and administrative districts by the river, as well as agricultural and industrial districts, right?

"Yes. That's right.

It's an eccentric city like never before.

"... wasn't that for two cities (...) for sure?

"Huh?... two minutes for the city?... It was definitely longitudinal..."

Erica wrinkles between her eyebrows and starts thinking.

"I don't know how you estimated it.

Are you possibly estimating 30,000 people on both sides (...)?

"Dear Takeo. What do you mean?

Smith will listen.

"No. City records facing the river and city records in the heart of agricultural land.

Suppose they both had records as 30,000 people cities, based on that, right?

"Yes. Estimates are calculations based on past performance.

Naturally, I suppose.

"... Wouldn't it be more if we estimated separately?

No, in the first place, how can you use two 30,000 city results to estimate 30,000 cities?

Is it okay to estimate by raising 10,000 to 30,000 people and lowering 60,000 to 30,000 people?

The unit price of things will be different, and the amount of things and people flowing in should be different on the size of the city... "

Takeo thinks.

"Ah. 30,000 riverside cities and 30,000 agrarian-centric cities.

If the products are handled differently, the number of merchants coming and the number of merchants leaving seems different.

Alice flashes.

"Yeah. One or every week a merchant comes and one or every season changes dramatically and...

Apply that to each of them... will it work?

... as a calculation of substantial inflows. Is that still good?... but is that the view that a certain number increases or decreases from one season to the next?

Is that it? Isn't the only place the Proprietary Bureau's track record is at His Royal Highness Cliff and His Highness Neil's?

When that happens, the location conditions and handling products will change next time, so can we use the entire track record in the first place?

That means... "

Takeo starts thinking.

"Mr. Takeo... I mean, you think the track record you're based on is a problem?

"Yeah.

As far as I'm concerned, you'll see it as a problem.

Surely... you said in the Wang capital that things made at His Highness William's place and His Highness Neil's place would change in the future.

If the sales items change when that happens, you can't count on the results of the sales office in the first place.

Do we have to use a more segmented track record?

And shouldn't you think based on your track record as a city and a small town as well?

No. Wouldn't it be quicker for us to imagine that achievement for ourselves in the first place?

"... okay.

Your Highness will be informed of that shortly.

Erica nods.

"Yeah. Right.

You should revisit the fundamentals again.

"Yes. I'll tell you that.

Erica snorted.
