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

"Mm-hmm... you have a big place in Pana.

Konoha says as he looks at the drawing upstairs.

"Oh, Konoha, we haven't separated the lab yet.

I've been thinking about distinguishing between ringtones since Mr. Tracy arrived.

"It was... it was a pleasure to have this size.

That's Takeo, Slime's fluid research, though.

We use fire, don't we? I think firewood is dangerous for boulders, what do you do?

Pana asks.

"... what about alcohol lamps?

I consider red slime fluid to be like alcohol, I heard it burns weakly before, so I have that image... "

Takeo says as he thinks.

"Is it an alcohol lamp?

"Yeah, that doesn't sound like a problem if you can even ventilate in a private room, does it?

Plus you need a thick string in the bottle and... oh... a part to support the core and a lid to extinguish the fire.

Well, it seems easier to make than a gas burner.

"... Shall I let Suzune make it?

"Konoha, when you use the ringtone again, it's time to fall overworked, isn't it?

"Um... Takeo does?

"Do you want to do a prototype?

Do you actually want me to be manager Taylor?

At first, it will be produced in small quantities because we will be the only ones who will use it, and it will not be something that we will mobilize until Satella Manufacturing.

"Even Takeo isn't manned in the end.

"I'm clumsy.

You can't sell prototype level items at the same level as you can.

In the end, it's better to let someone who seems to be able to do it.

Plus, there's King Jen, and he's going to help us in case.

"Well... yeah.

What else does Takeo make?

"Hmm... the body fluids of the white slime are described as having properties that, when touched by the air and ignited, become as hard as rocks.

I think it's a liquid mortar in my image.

Make this a little more specific... mortar plates... can't you?

"Ah... a partition for Pana.

Isn't that good?

"If we do well, we can expect demand as interior materials, right?

Maybe we can put some fresh air into the wallpaper business.

"Hmm... I see.

Surely the wallpaper changes depending on whether the basement is mortar white or stone or tree.

Maybe some brighter colored wallpapers will come out too.

Are mortar plates sure they have fire resistance?

Well, it would be to a different extent than where Takeo was.

"You want a 30 minute fire resistance, don't you?

That doesn't make Pana miss a big fire, he says.

"... Takeo, I'm a spirit, right?

"Hiro also has the admonition of a great enemy at all times, as the word" brush error "suggests.

No matter how cautious the pana is, it will be.

Both Mr. Tracy and Tetto with the ringtone will be able to use the magic of the water system, so they will be able to extinguish the fire in case.

If you're in Pana, you have to make it a room where you can stop the overcooking until someone comes.

Besides, this is not only for the Pana room, but also for the other two.

This is my order, the facility manager.

"Okay.

Pana snorts.

"... hey Takeo, I know I'll make you an alcohol lamp, Pana, but...

Pana, you can't fire, can you?

Konoha makes you look "if you say so".

"Ah... um..."

Takeo thinks.

"Takeo, it's okay there.

There was a firestone in the grocery store.

"Firestone... would you even make it with an oil lighter?

"There's no firestone for oil lighters from natural stones, is there?

That must have been an alloy of cerium and iron.

Even if you use natural stones, ignition isn't stable, is it?

"Um... Victor, how was the ignition?

Takeo asks Victor, who can't use magic.

"No... it's the pyrotechnic stone Konoha is talking about, but you have quality pyrotechnic stones.

Whoever was using it to make a maid was on fire.

I would have normally started a fire if I struck it twice... "

"Really... um... that's what this place is all about.

So, Victor, does that firestone make a difference from what you're selling in this city?

"No... I don't know the difference, but both Gina and I have started a fire for our own meals and hot tubs, and we've never had that much trouble, so it seems to perform well.

"Hmm... then would you like to process the flint stone to create a flint stone for the oil lighter?

Do you want to see it powdered once... and further mixed with ignitable minerals?

"... it's a fire prone mineral-- I wish I had the cerium I just mentioned.

"I'm looking at the minerals handled by Wang Du's Proprietary Bureau... I wonder if there was one.

I'll check that later, won't I?

"Okay.

Then what Takeo lets others do.

Taylor uses red slime body fluids for the production of alcohol lamps and oil lighters.

Development of mortar materials for the Howorth Chamber of Commerce.

"... Konoha, you know very well that I'm thinking of making the mortar material the Howorth Chamber of Commerce.

"I know Takeo, and he's the only one with knowledge of the exterior walls, right?

Besides, all the other workshops are machines, weapons systems, clothes and carriages.

Then I'll have to ask you over there.

"You know exactly what I mean.

Well, that sounds like a good offices job for the Howorth Chamber of Commerce.

"There... I'm doing everything from furniture to stationery, but I'm here to make a room.

The refurbishment business is going to work, right?

Looks like you can order a whole room from the furniture to the wall.

"Would you be happy, Monica?

"You'll be delighted in tears.

"Takeo would be happy to say.

"It's your chance to expand your business, so you'll be delighted.

Konoha, Pana and Victor laughed bitterly at Takeo's words and agreed.
