Ascendance of a Bookworm

Since Ingo is determined to improve the printing press but also incorporate metal, I ask Benno to bring Johann and Zach with me next time.

"... are you sure it's good, Ingo?

"I only deal with trees because I don't know how and what kind of metal to use. Best to ask a guy who specializes in it."

Calling Johann and Zach seemed natural to me, but it's impossible, Benno said.

Originally, it seems that the blacksmith workshop will not be involved from the design stage in the objects requested by the woodworking workshop. Only, since it is the woodworking workshop that receives the request, they take the form of designing it in the woodworking workshop and asking the blacksmith workshop for the necessary parts on it.

If I am satisfied with my client, Ingo said, and decided to do something unprecedented: design after discussions with different industries.

"... isn't it normal to exchange views between different industries?

"I have ordered hinges and nails from the blacksmith factory in making furniture and doors, but at the design stage I do not discuss them with other industries, nor with the spare workshop"

To clarify who got the request and where it would benefit, Ingo said. Perhaps the system for determining exclusivity is also made for similar reasons.

"Don't you know anything about craftsmen to the chief of the temple, who is noble..."

There's no choice, beyond the sighing ingo, why don't you know? and Benno staring at me.

... You don't have to be a biological nobleman to know. I'm sorry.

I am oblivious to the circumstances of the craftsmen standing behind the workshop because my father is a soldier and both my mother and Touri are only employed in the workshop. Maybe it's because he was obsessed with creating books and had no interest in how the world works like that.

"Well, I'll try to think about as many improvements as I can."

"Oh, I asked for it"

After Ingo returns, I will write down the improvements, recalling as much as possible about the printing press. I can't design it, so it's just words and diagrams, but I think it would be nice if it inspired some kind of idea.

A few days later, Johann and Zach, who were called in, came looking around a little bit. Johann has a purely "what can I make him do this time" anxiety on his face, and Zach looks around the room with a curious face like, "Is there anything interesting rolling in the dean's office?"

"... that's why I called them both because I also wanted to use metal to improve my printing press. Please help me."

Unlike Johann, who immediately replied "OK" when he explained the situation and asked for help, Zach wrinkled his nose head in dissatisfaction.

"Even when it comes to cooperation, the printing press is a request to a woodworking workshop. It's not a request to our workshop, so it won't do us any good."

"Of course I'm going to pay you, though?

When I tilted my neck, Zach shook his head.

"It's not just about money. I'm saying that helping with extra work doesn't raise my reputation at the Blacksmith Association."

Helping others get the job doesn't lead to evaluation. So Johann is underrated even if he only has technology. Because I don't have many visitors to ask for it, and I just help others with their work. The help of Johann, who is good at fine work, raises the reputation of the requested artisan and becomes the reputation of the workshop. But that doesn't make Johann personally appreciated.

"If you order the metal part from a blacksmith, it won't lead to an evaluation of Johann or Zach? That's what I asked you?

Printing machine orders go to Ingo's workshop, metal parts orders go to Zach and Johann, each workshop.

I thought that would be very much the same as a normal request, but am I wrong?

"... Johann is overwhelmingly better at fine work"

Zach shrugged, citing as an example the roller to make the raw paper of Lowe, which is regrettably placed in the corner of the workshop. Machines designed by Zach and built by Johann were easier to use than machines made by Zach.

I know Zach bit his back teeth with regret that he designed it but ended up not being able to make it himself. It's a frustration born of understanding Johann's high level of technical skills.

"The part job is decided to go to Johann. That doesn't lead to my assessment."

No matter how much you think, Johann takes the results, Zach shrugged.

Previously, I showed Johann my design and gave it to him, saying there was no way I could do it, but I found Zach very wary of Johann's technology that would come true.

It is difficult for each other to be vigilant of each other and not have free exchanges of views or ideas. Because I expect Zach's imagination to take the form of vague explanations and hopes.

"I'm counting on Zach's imagination. Can't you get a blacksmith's rating in the form of buying blueprints?

Johann is more certain to make the parts, but Zach is overwhelmingly better at the idea and design. When I said I wanted to buy away Zach's idea, Zach turned his eyes round, as he had been told what he had never thought possible.

"Buy blueprints? It's not a product, is it?

When I saw Zach, who was surprisingly vegetarian, I was once again struck by a culture shock. The behavior of buying blueprints seems unusual here.

"Yep. The blueprints were Zach's idea, weren't they? I want to make that, so isn't the blueprint well worth it? I want to buy Zach's blueprints. If you consider the product to be a blueprint, will it not lead to Zack's rating?

"Uh, uh, that means you're ordering blueprints from me and buying them?... Rosemayne, don't say things that surprise me sometimes"

That's what Zach said, blinking his eyes. Johan sighed lightly as he looked at me tilting his neck, not knowing why I was surprised.

"It's not every now and then that Master Rosemaine says something that surprises me. Always."

All of a sudden I just don't pray or anything. Today is a good day, I mumbled my lips to Johann whining.

The blueprints were made in discussions with the customer, and it became an item, so they never sold the blueprints. If you want the same product you made before, they won't flush out the blueprints because the introduction of the customer will have a new customer.

"I never thought about selling blueprints, but if you ask for them and the blueprints are merchandise, don't even lead to my evaluation."

Zack was convinced that he would help design the printing press by sending a design document request through Benno.

"So how the hell does Master Rosemaine want to improve?

"All printing presses today are made of wood, but we want to make some of them metal to improve strength and printing accuracy"

I took out the diagrams I had written as far as I could remember and spread them out.

"First, I want the printing press to have a table that moves like this. I'd like to put the formwork down and move the paper here, fold and secure this plate, and then move it under this compressor…"

A diagram was shown to explain how it moves with gestures and gestures. Zach is listening with something to say bump, and Johann has a difficult face.

"At a minimum, we want to install metal and make it slippery"

"Oh, then..."

"I can," Johann said, howling, but Zach glanced challengingly at the gray eye.

"... minimum? What's the best?"

"I hope this table can move by turning the steering wheel, you know?

Zach narrows his eyes and roars at the pantomime that moves around holding the handle.

"Move the table with the handle......"

"There were also ways to apply the yarn-winding method to move the table. Is that helpful?

"Hmm, yarn roll...... I see"

I see, so I guess you came up with something. That's right, Zach the idea. Deserves the title of Gutenberg.

Waiting for Zach's thoughts to come together, Ingo put his arms together and looked at me with blue eyes.

"Chief Temple, is there anything else?

"What else?

"That's right. Put aside if it's feasible and say whatever improvements you want me to make and what things I want you to make."

Ingo says "as far as I can think of" easily, but I don't think I can understand it where I said it.

"As far as I can think of, can I say it? I don't think it's gonna happen."

"I can, I can't. With a few words, like Zach right now, you might be able to. There may be something else I can use for you. Whatever you can think of, just state it."

Zach nods loudly at Ingo's words, and he looks at me with a gaze of anticipation. If you're expected, let's shake it more and more impotent, regardless of whether we can or can't.

"Okay. Then I want you to think about using Spring."

"Spring?"

"It's made of metal, so maybe we're dealing with it in a blacksmith's workshop? It's like this, though."

When I drew the diagram and stated how to use it, Johan slapped Pong and his hand

"Oh, spring. … where and how do you use the printing press?

"I don't know."

"Yes!?

No, even if you look at me like that, I don't know anything you don't. Even if I had read the history of printing press improvements, I didn't have any detailed blueprints on them, and even if they did, there's no way I can remember them in detail.

"All I know is that it is used to help the pressure plate move up and down to apply pressure. I'll leave it up to you, the craftsmen, to see if you can incorporate it into the printing press you're going to make and how it works. It would be convenient to use it well, but it's definitely not something you have to use."

Even though it has been improved, it only states what I remember, so there must be a lot of smaller improvements and ideas I don't know about.

If I could take what I have said and make a new printing press, I wish I could, and must, although the history of the printing press would move for about 100-200 years at once.

"Oh, but we're going to improve it anyway, so one more thing"

"Do we still have improvements?

Zach peeled off his eyes and screamed.

I told you to state as much as you can think of, Zach or Ingo, why do you look so surprised?

"I don't think we can do this right away because this is going to change the printing press from the ground up. Now I use a pressing machine to make it, so it's screwed, but I wish I could use a printing press that uses the" principle of the matter "any day."

"Oh, Teconogenri..."

I frowned remembering that Ingo didn't understand the last time I was hearing an explanation, and Johann and Zach made a decent face.

As I explained to Ingo, I explained it according to the principle of Eternity, and while giving a concrete example of whether this principle is also used in architectural and masonry sites, everyone spoke convincingly, oh.

"I know the principle, but you have no idea how to use it."

Zach shakes his head and denies Johann's words with his shoulders flashed and his eyes glowed.

"You, what are you talking about!? This is amazing. A small force can move something big. The most powerful thing in the printing press would be to move this compressor, right? If this could be moved even by small forces, it would mean printing would be easier, wouldn't it? Besides, printing isn't the only way to use it."

"I knew Zach's idea was amazing. As Zach said, both the principle and the spring can be applied to other things. Personally, I'd like you to make a bed out of springs, but first, it's a printing press. Whatever you put down, it's a printing press at first."

Books are more important than comfortable mattresses. As long as the printing press can, it is not in my knowledge how to use the spring and the principles of this to create new objects.

"In the meantime, I'll draw a variety of blueprints.... you can buy it, right?

"I'll make a request for Zack's workshop because of the design of the printing press. And I'll buy what I thought was good."

Zach turned out to be the one thinking about it. There seems to be a lot of ideas in my head.

Seeing Zach like that, Ingo exhales slowly.

"Huh, you're young, but you're amazing. I had no idea what the temple chief was talking about."

"It's Johann and Ingo's job to pick out what's feasible in the printing press that Zach has been thinking about and actually make it. You just have to leave it to Zach, who's good at flexible, free ideas, when it comes to design."

It was the right material, and Johan shook his head, exhaling slowly at me with his chest stretched out.

"I'm only making picture books now, so don't you need to rush to improve your printing press?

"While you're making a picture book, if you don't make a printing press, you'll have trouble later, won't you? What are you talking about, Johann? I'm not aware of you as Gutenberg."

Johann says, "I don't have any consciousness," and he looks at me, but he ignores me. Johann is Gutenberg. I won't give this away.

"While Zach is designing, Ingo and Johan have another request"

I gave them the blueprints.

I decided to put out a typography case and a typography stand on the ingo, and then a request for sticks and Intel.

"Typography cases and planting platforms?... What kind of stuff is this stick or Intel?

"Typography cases are boxes for putting metal typography, considering the size and position of the frame depending on frequency of use and number of pieces. And the typesetting table is the table where the typesetting case is delivered, which is the workbench for carrying out the typesetting."

When I explained that a typeface case had been delivered here and put the manuscript here and put it together like this, Ingo nodded as he understood.

"What's this stick and Intel over here? It's a lot smaller than a case or a table."

"The stick is like an elongated wooden box, used to typeface. You've made it before, haven't you?

"I made it as they say, but I have no idea what I'm going to use it for."

The stick can't even be technically a box because the sides are Co lettering or L lettering and somewhere is open. I don't have to combine a single line of typescripts, so the length is about the short side of the A4, which is about 5-6 cm wide that I can hold with one hand.

The script planter arranges the typefaces on this stick one letter at a time.

"If you're going to put typography in the stick, what's this Intel going to use for?

"Intel is the first elongated plate to put in the stick. It's an excellent way to set the width of a row in just one piece and align the rows."

The height is slightly lower than the metal typeface so as not to affect printing, the horizontal length is used to determine the length of a single line in the body, and the vertical length is used to determine the line to line.

When I'm done typing one line, I'll pinch the Intel, and I'll put the next line together, so I'll need many identical Intels.

"If you're an ingo workshop that prepares boards the same size for your winter hand job, you'll make it easy, won't you?

"For the sake of monotony, it's surprisingly hard to adjust the size. Just right for apprenticeship training."

That's what Ingo said, he took it on.

Johan looks at the blueprints and narrows his eyes in colour with a difficult face. I asked Johann to set up a lot of the contents, but was there something that was so difficult?

"Johann, what's wrong? Was there something you didn't know?

"What is Setten? It's a lot thinner though."

"Oh, Setten puts Intel in the stick and then lines it up with the perfect accompaniment to Intel. It's meant to make metal typography slippery."

I use it to slip it, so it has to be a thin, straight metal plate. I'm counting on Johann's arm.

"Besides, I've already made many of these spaces..."

"I had the space made, but Quatta and Joss haven't, have they? And if we're going to make a book full of letters, we're going to need Malt, Formart and Furniture."

Space is what pinches between words. The space was already made by Johann.

Quatas are used at the end of characters that require two or more characters to be blank, thus requiring many different lengths. Now I use space to fill the end of the sentence, but in order to create long blanks, it would be more efficient to have a quack.

Joss is used when making lines of blanks. You put it big with Don when it's a blank to put in an illustration, or when you need a margin on a page change. It is designed to be lightweight and cavity inside.

Malt, Formart and Furniture are used to make page margins when printing two pages at a time in an opening. It becomes necessary to vacate between pages or to create a space between heaven and earth.

"Now that I've only printed one page of the body in a picture book, I didn't need it, but when I finished making the picture book, I'd use it. If you want to start printing for adults that are packed with sentences, you will need a number, so you will want to be ready soon."

Lady Rosemayne was all around the prep, and whining, Johan took care of the blueprint.

"There are plenty of due dates, but creating a printing press will come in along the way, so get to it early"

Then about ten days later, Benno asked me to see him. I hear Zach's blueprints are up.

Zach, with as many as seven blueprints, enters the hidden room with a cut smile.

When I looked at it as a parallax, there was something in it that was quite close to the printing press I would imagine.

"This! Can I make this!? It's the closest thing I know! Amazing, Zach! I can't believe you could do a blueprint for the same thing so far with that explanation."

With my admiration Zach laughs as he is good at it, peeking into the blueprints and explaining to me which neighborhood he has devised and why he wanted to do so.

Johann, who was staring at the blueprints just like me, took up another blueprint and made his face shine.

"Wait a minute, Master Rosemaine. This one also uses this principle, which is amazing."

"... don't you just want to try something small and difficult? I've only seen fine-eyed parts!

Johann looked bad only for a moment at Zach's pointing out, but soon he shone his blinding eyes as he pointed to the blueprints.

"If you leave it to me, I can definitely do it. Why don't you make this?

"Oh, calm down. Wait a minute."

An ingo watching us spread his hand and stopped us. When I blink my eyes and look at the ingo, the ingo looks around at everyone scratching his temples "ahhh".

"First, Zach. No way, I didn't think I could design so many, and, moreover, so ingenious. You did good."

"Oh, no, it's work... because it's my specialty."

Praised from the front, Zach laughs like a little light. Ingo laughed back at it, too, and then turned his gaze to me.

"Next, the temple chief. I said this is good because it is closest to what I know, but I want you to consider it carefully, including the advantages and disadvantages of other things. I know you're happy, but calm down."

"... Yes"

I reach for the other design books, staring lightly at Benno and Lutz laughing as they scold me.

"Then, Johann. It is important as an artisan to try difficult objects, but whether they are really user-friendly or satisfactory to the customer will be paramount. You can't just show off your skills."

"... excuse me"

To Ingo's words, everyone was to review the blueprints carefully again.

There was a lot of discussion about whether we could not incorporate this part or how to do this one, and Zack redrawn the blueprints several times, creating a pretty advanced printer blueprint.

I think the history of printing has progressed for about two hundred years.

"It's a big winter job."

All the craftsmen entrusted with the task of making printing presses were challenging and motivated. We'll be done by next spring, and we're encouraging each other.

... May my Gutenberg have the blessing of Mestionora, the goddess of wisdom.
