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

"Well... Mr. Dan, your wife is willing to do it.

I'm sorry you're newly married.

"No, this is the first time in a long time I've seen Cloy motivated so far.

I will give it my best thought with a slight force.

Keep your head down while Dan says so.

"And then... what about the ship?

"Yes, that's me there.

I'm thinking about using this medium-sized ship.

Dan puts the drawing in front of Takeo.

"Hmm... that's a big thing.

"Yes, it will be one standard fishing boat or the other in Count Temple territory.

"Hmm.

Is this a modification of this?

That's a good thing.

"Is that a good thing?

Dan listens back.

"Yeah, ship technology can't be done overnight.

It's an industry that needs years of accumulation.

So? "

"Yes, Master Kitamizato, what about the ship carpenter?

"... mmm...

Yeah, well, it's something I need to let you know someday, so let's talk about it.

Give me this one first.

Pass Dan the black slime plate Takeo took out of his backpack.

"This doesn't seem to be... iron... but it's stiff.

"This is the state in which the Elvis family set fire to the 'certain liquids' they are going to sell.

Takeo says so and puts out a vial with black slime fluid at his desk.

"... new material..."

Everyone on the spot sees and solidifies what Takeo has presented.

"With that said earlier... the specific gravity to iron was said and calculated... and the container?

Carol says.

"Yeah, it's slightly inferior in strength, but iron-like, and the weight is expected to be 1/3 of iron.

"Awesome..."

"This kind of material..."

Everyone is stuck.

"I can't use it a lot because the quantity of ingredients is small.

I'll use this for now.

Mr. Dan... do you have any idea what this means?

"Phew... you'll almost lose your job as a ship carpenter.

I'm going to say it with a face like Dan decided to.

"... correct, but incorrect.

Takeo says as he leans his neck.

"Huh?"

"You will no longer need the visibility of a ship carpenter's tree, but the job of moulding a ship is just a new addition.

"Is that... a ship carpenter?

"I don't think it's a big deal, such as a name.

If we were to define a shipyard as a shipyard, wouldn't we be together on a classification basis in the form of shipyard craftsmen?

"That's right... but I know what it means to try to make it in this land.

This is even a difficult way to propose in the territory of Count Temple, where the ship carpenter is located.

"Well... I guess so.

Takeo nods at Dan's words.

"By the way, Master Kitamizato, do you bake this size?

Dan says as he looks at the drawings.

"Bake... Mr. Roach.

When Takeo asks Roach.

"As it stands, I can't.

Roach responds instantly.

"Right.

There are no kilns of this size.

Carol nods too.

"When it does, it means it's going to be cooked in portions...

Well, what's the problem here?

Takeo asks 4 people.

"How do you bake it?

"That too.

Cloy answers, Takeo nods.

"How do you handle the bonding part when you split it it, right?

"Sure.

Takeo nods at Carol's answer.

"This... baking as designed means... isn't the drawing accurate enough?

"Correct."

Takeo answers Roach's words.

"Ahhh..."

Dan's complexion turns white.

"I'm assuming as things stand. It's easy to make.

1. Make detailed drawings.

2. Make an elaborate model as per the drawings (with soil, clay, wood, etc.).

3. Cover with material to take the outer mould of the model.

4. Cover with material to take the inner mould of the model.

5. Bake in this condition and solidify the mould.

6. With the model removed, combine the inner and outer moulds and pour this liquid into the area where the model was located and cook.

7. Unmould and complete.

Wow, easy.

Takeo whispered.

Four people are leaning down and listening.

"By the way, it's a covering material to mold, but I'm going to use white slime fluid (another new material).

Is this, uh... is this it?

This is also liquid, but when cooked, it becomes like a stone in this way.

It's slightly brittle, but it'll be enough to make it.

Takeo puts a fire-resistant plate in front of everyone.

"... new material again..."

Everyone says as they lean down.

"Make it with these two ingredients.

Well, I don't know if I'm going to use this liquid as it is until I've tested and evaluated it in the lab (of which).

The general flow will not change.

Well, when additional technology is available (...) Shall I include some information?

Questions? "

Everyone is feeling a little relieved.

"Mm-hmm... did you surprise me with the new material?

Takeo says as he looks at the four.

"Yes."

Assena, who was a clerk next to Takeo, raises her hand.

"Yes, Mr. Assena.

"Dear Kitamizato, shouldn't you describe the current product of this special new material?

"I see.

If you have new materials that you have put out since then, we plan to make them into products at the Howorth Chamber of Commerce as interior walls.

I've greeted you earlier, but you're currently at the stage of explaining to the craftsmen how to build it.

The application will be a refractory plate with a refractory material.

It is expected to be used in the interior of the room where the kitchen and fire are used to delay the extension of the fire.

Takeo tells 4 people.

"Lord, please keep that and confidential.

"Right.

Currently, if you ask a civilian in the Elvis family for this new material... where was the department in charge of Victor?

"It will be the Department of Resource Management of the Bureau of Economic Affairs.

"Contact the Resource Management Department and they can sell it.

But this is still a new material, created at the Elvis family.

Even the friendly Earls of Temple and Godwin will be kept secret for the time being.

So there will be confidentiality.

I taught you. I brought a confidentiality contract to the four people's workshop here later... was there a Mr. Carroll?

"... no, that's a separate case.

Let me tie it firmly in this matter.

Carol answers weakly.

"Please.

Well, the fact is, the sales volume is low at the moment.

It's a stage of deepening research and performance rather than depleting it.

So it's a secret until the sales system is in place.

One day the Elvis family will publish it.

Until then, no need to say anything else, and tell the people in the workshop.

That's good, right?

"" ""... yes... ""

Four respond weakly.

"Yeah... okay! Did I say what I wanted to say?

Victor, Mr. Assena, is there anything left to tell you?

"... as it stands, I wonder if there's any more.

"Neither do I.

Victor and Assena answer to Takeo's words looking at everyone.

"Victor, consult with the Bureau of Economics and prepare a confidentiality agreement.

Let it be concluded early.

"I'm in awe.

And the way the ship was made earlier, I will also draw up a contract and sign it with you.

"... I'll leave it to Victor.

Takeo thinks a little before saying.

"Yes, I understand overlapping.

"All right, gentlemen, thank you for coming to Victor's shortly.

We'll discuss that and blueprints when we can.

Oh, you can drop me off.

Victor, Mr. Assena, shall we go?

"" Yes. Excuse me, gentlemen.

Takeo and the others left the conference room.
