Episode 37: Wilderness Beware Stick! (Exclamation mark is the point) "

Then about two days went by nothing in particular.

Hagg came to force a ton of cutlets every night... And every night, Narnia turns up in the room wondering if I can get away with it. If you don't have any money, I won't do it.

Haggs don't feel comfortable around it anymore, as they did on the first day.

If I get paid for the ingredients, I won't make them, but it won't be the amount I can prepare for my kids.

You can do it in luxury, but it's not for Narnia either.

Hagg and Yalarai are rewarded with bad gossip every time they face each other, but they haven't even gotten into physical fights.

It was a busy but peaceful day.

————

That day, when we finally had a paper and charcoal prototype, Chelina and I cancelled all the noon business talks and moved. It is outside the city once out of the city walls.

The location is along a river that flows east and west south of the city. It was around the east gate of the city wall, heading south along the walls and hitting the river. Precisely right along the river, they have a place to pick up the raft, pull it up, and dry the wood. I could see the big trees piling up from a distance, but the destination didn't seem to be there, which is where I went east along the river about a few kilometers from there.

It would suffice if you somehow recognized it as a moderate distance from the city.

"What is this place?

I got off the carriage and wondered if there was an unexpectedly large cabin lined up.

"It's a property owned by the Veriero Chamber of Commerce. It's a river fish treatment plant."

"Fish treatment plant hey..."

I narrow my eyes and walk around the cabin. There is no smell of fish here more than around the Chamber of Commerce in Cerina, and more importantly, there is no indication that a single eagle is dried.

... but there are no boars in the river.

What bothered me more than that was that the hut was made of dry bricks and thick wood and a building that seemed sturdy, and then four sharply armed humans with eyes were each equipped with spears and swords. It would be a private soldier because it's a different kind of weapon from the city entrance or the soldiers of a country that patrols at times, no fool would let a person who seems to do it and be strong protect the fish.

"Hmm, what's the real use?

"Of course, of my Veriero Chamber of Commerce... no, it's my laboratory"

I guess.

As always, I don't hesitate to reveal the secrets of the Chamber of Commerce to Cherina... but rather to me, Melvin.

There's nothing you can do about staring at me...

"I had to build a coal kiln outside on the boulder, but I immediately covered it with a fence. I had the ingredients. I don't have to blindfold you, but if someone gets close to this beautiful spot, you'll find out."

I guess you've chosen this place by thinking that far.

"See you, Dauro. Let's hear the report."

As we entered the biggest cabin, there was a little chubby middle-aged artisan Douro waiting inside.

"Lady, this way, please"

When he was guided to the back chair and seated, Dauro quickly placed a large piece of paper on his desk.

"You're about the same size as parchment. But it's good to be completely square."

"Heh. I struggled a little to get the hang of the task of scraping paper, and because I needed clear water to use it, I struggled with two things, but the tools themselves were all made on the first day."

"So mass production of the tools themselves is possible."

"As much as you want."

"I see. But is this paper..."

Chelina is pinching or pulling paper a little bigger than her desk "

"There is still a lot of room for improvement, especially with the plants used. Come on. This is easy to get. I bought and treated the wood down the river before it dried, so it's inexpensive."

"How long is this?

"If you sell one of those for 10,000 yen, you can make a fortune with the tools."

"... what?

Slowly Cherina raised her face.

"With as little as a million dollars to produce the tools in general. Come on. So this guy's got practice, make another 100. Come on. I don't have enough room to sun-dry the most, and I'm about ten pieces complete. This is the one who cut it into sizes called" Erm "and" Erm. "

What Dauro took out was Japanese paper cut into A4 and A3 sizes.

It's still thick and uneven, but this much can be made in a few days, and thin Japanese paper will be made in no time.

"This larger one is close to its size for parchment letters in circulation,"

"Heh. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to sell this" er "size and this uncut max size as well"

I'm attracted to A4 personally.

"It would be nice to cut it into A3 and sell it in bunches like this, someone get a pen and ink"

Melvin gently places the feather pen and ink from the top of the shelf on the paper on the table before I get my gaze around. Incidentally, the ink bottle is ceramic.

"... a little bit, the tip of the pen catches, but the ink nori is very good"

"Chelina, the ink should be dry soon, too. Try layering another piece of paper."

"This is... amazing, because parchment really takes a lot of time for the ink to dry."

I always knew Chelina was struggling until she was dry when she was working on parchment, so I tried to tell her, but it seems to be well received.

"It's uniform in size, has a good writing flavour and user-friendliness, but also considerably reduces the price. Douro, what will the price of this A4 one eventually be?"

"Ten yen a piece is enough to make a profit. Come on. Wouldn't it be profitable to sell one at a time in less than a year if the research went ahead?

Melvin, not Chelina, was stunned by what it meant.

"Overwhelmingly inexpensive and high quality compared to parchment, and it doesn't scuff...... this... definitely sells"

"Ma'am, there's only one thing wrong with you, okay?

"Is there a problem?

"I don't need to be told high quality to this extent. Come on. If you get seven more days, I'll show you this piece of paper with my nose. He said he's finally starting to understand the trick of paper."

Douro laughs niggly.

"That's great. Then we will aim to commercialize it in ten days. At that time the price...... let's sell one for 300 yen. It's still much cheaper than parchment."

"I understand. I'd just like to increase the number of papermakers, but what do we do?"

"The task of flattening the dry ingredients with nets is to do so."

"Yeah, if you keep the process of making that ingredient top secret, it'll make you wonder if it's okay to add more papermakers."

"Okay. Begin by asking the courtiers of the Chamber of Commerce if they want to become professional craftsmen and gather them together. If we don't get together, you guys do something about it."

"Understood."

"Excuse me, can I talk to you for a second?

I'm sorry to interrupt where I'm getting clustered, but I have a job to do as your opinion number.

"... lady, I've been thinking about this for a long time, what is this guy?

"Didn't you explain that you were a consultant last time?

……

I'm not convinced. It's a face.

"So, young man, are you complaining?

"Well, it's a prototype, but I want you to make some different kinds of directions."

"Huh?"

"One is something close to this paper, isn't it? The fiber is still rough and thick, but on the contrary, it is good with this thickness, so it is more durable, water resistant, and eye fine."

"You think it's water resistant?

"Have you not tried? Japanese paper is also quite resistant to water. Or one thin, fine eye, white if you can."

"Hmm..."

"The thinner is mainly ideal for paperwork. Thick items also have a wide range of usage. If you devise a way not to burn, surrounding the candle with Japanese paper will be a gentle light, or you can use it for a little partition. It's a little bit of a cage story, but sometimes you use paper at the end of the toilet."

Well, I use a pocket tissue.

I don't wash the toilet anyway, so I don't feel comfortable using it.

Dauro was silently arm in arm.

"... if you're going to use it that way, you have to make it pretty soft"

"If you can get a nice piece of paper, you can snap your nose."

"I haven't tried it yet, but this japanese paper burns, right?

"Yeah, it burns well for a thin minute, so it's strictly no fire. I'm sure it was written in its entirety."

"Oh. I remember you. I make it the furthest away from the charcoal shed."

Good, it's an item I haven't understood yet, so I was a little scared.

"I see..."

Dauro whines bossly as he stays in his arms.

"I thought your daughter had bought that book by boat... was that you"

I can turn my giraffed eyes. Are you mad at me?

"That's right..."

"No prying, I said... yes. It was Akira who brought you to our Chamber of Commerce."

Say it!

Well, it doesn't feel like I can hide it.

"Uh, I just happened to get it far away. I didn't understand half the content."

I'll try to deceive you for once. I guess it's true you didn't understand the second half of the whole book very well.

"Hmm. Yeah, well, look at the charcoal, lady."

"Okay."

Get out once and move the place.

A kiln was built in a place surrounded by veneer-flavoured cheap blindfolds. I am already raising smoke in my current progression.

"I am still trying a variety of things. It's easy to work with more kilns every day, and it's easy to increase the efficiency of experiments every day."

After a closer look, there was also an enclosure a little further away and a few places where the smoke was raised. One armed person stands politely on all of them.

"You're thorough."

"Of course, Master Akira. A rat comes in when you're alarmed. Technology is power. There's no one like Akira who gives technology to others."

Sounds like I'm different. No, if you think this is exclusive technology, is it an asshole act at the bureaucratic level with insufficient crisis management? I guess I'm just an idiot when I think about it.

"Lady, there are some finished products that are easy to find. Here."

The next time I was guided was a much smaller cabin than earlier.

Several charcoals arranged on a desk.

"The first few failed when the air went into the kiln. It was made easier by comparing the burning time and the size of the wood in the kiln that was subsequently added. Those are the ones, but I just can't figure out which ones are better and worse."

I don't care what you think, some failures, others look good.

"Well charcoal is said to take ten years to be able to make high quality things, so now you just need to aim for a sufficient level. Basically, you can see the good and bad of charcoal by burning it. If you don't have smoke, you won't mind judging it as good coal."

I don't know the details either, but I've heard that if it's only fine charcoal, it won't produce smoke, flames or smells. Actually, that's the kind of charcoal I want, so you can go for it.

"I hope there are seven wheels or something."

"What is that?

Chelina ate the word that leaked with polarity.

"Uh, that's..."

Stop looking up with your eyes shining. Don't shrink the distance, you'll see the valley of your chest, young lady.

"Er... oh, I could only have acted"

[Seven wheels = 3840 yen]

I can't compare it, so I'll give you about ten.

I whisper to Chelina sneakingly.

(I'll get paid later)

She nodded, so I'll line up about ten of them seven wheels.

It's a huge bag of capacity.

Shit, I wasn't even aware of you.

"It's a vacuum cleaner that's passed on to my house."

"Well done on bringing it up."

Um, the more I open my mouth, the more suspicious I feel about the old man.

"... I ran away from my parents"

"Hmm."

I feel this has discredited me as a merchant. Was I such a bad liar? I need to remember the Black Age and get back on track.

"Let's test the charcoal. It's good to check in the same environment as possible, so we've got seven wheels, and we'll use the same amount of charcoal to check how it burns."

"I understand. Let's do it outside."

Dauro tells me in the first half and out in the second half for Cerina.

When I give instructions outside, another executive craftsman arranges seven wheels outside and sets up charcoal for each type. Quite handy. Is this the strength of the executives?

The results were not very satisfactory.

Most charcoal already gives up smoke, and the flames are huge. This is not what I'm looking for.

I stayed to ask Dauro to go for something where the flames wouldn't go up without smoke.

"Charcoal is going to take a while."

"No, the Japanese paper just went too well. Charcoal is just amazing enough to make a prototype."

Me and Chelina were talking in the carriage on the way home. Melvin is your man, accompanied by about two armed men from the escort.

"The use of Japanese paper spreads your dreams."

"Paper is the foundation of culture. It can also be a weapon that controls information."

"... what do you mean?

"Do prints or something exist?

"Prints...... never heard of them"

"Simply put, you write the text on a wooden board, carve it in, ink it, and copy it on Japanese paper. Actually, I have some detailed work on inversion processing... but the basics are printing a lot of the same sentences and patterns on paper... it's a technique to write without the use of your hands"

"… in large quantities…"

They don't come with pins.

"Well, if Japanese paper production seems to be on track, maybe I can reach that way"

I don't know how far you can use it when you think about literacy, but I'd rather you use it to increase literacy.

You won't go that far in a month before then.

"No, forget about that one now"

"Then don't say anything that bothers you"

Chelina with a little pointy mouth and obstinate.

Maybe it's her fault, but I think these childish tricks are her essence. I was wondering if you were forced to use reverence to keep yourself contained and alive, just like me.

... No, assuming it was, I guess if it was her position, I'd have to grow up. The Chamber of Commerce is so huge. There's no way I can be a child.

Somehow, I can't believe I want this guy to unload some more shoulders... not like me. Yeah.

Women are horrible creatures. Double check. Don't be fooled. Me. If I believe you, I will be betrayed. Definitely betray. All right. You'll never be fooled by what you look like.

I look out with my legs together. Exactly, it's not a glass window, it's a wooden drawer, but when I opened it, my eyes met with the escort, and I accidentally closed it as it was.

Please don't stare at me like that.

I noticed this later, but it seems that getting around in the same carriage as your daughter Chelina is pretty much lifting the human hates around her. You couldn't help it because you didn't know!

Chelina takes it for granted that I ride with her in the first place, so if you want her to stop, you guys can go straight to Chelina!

I want to go home soon.

Damn it!

The carriage swayed and stopped suddenly. The horse is missing.

"Aah!"

Chelina's out of balance and stuck it in me, so I can hold her in a hurry.

"What's up?! What happened?!

If you open the wooden window of the carriage and peek outside, isn't the escort man spearing?

I open the door and try to get out, but I immediately say to the other escort, "You idiot! Don't come out!" and they yelled at me.

"Whoa! What happened!

"Don't worry, he's just a burglar! Never get out of the carriage! Protect the lady!

One of the escorts gets off the horse and sets up a spear. The other is looking around without a gap from the horse. Professional work. If I go outside, I'll just get in the way. I decide to wait in the carriage.

"Chelina, I don't know what's gonna happen, so just hold on tight."

"Yes."

I wanted her to grab me by the railing of the carriage, but she's been clinging to me.

I can't shake it off now, and I decided to keep supporting her. If Melvin sees me, he's going to look amazing again, but when he peeks into the small window, Melvin on your stand was not the other way around, he was always up to running at all costs.

Peek into the window of the door again, finally you start to see a group of escort humans confronting you.

They have a lot of rocks and bad vision because they're off the trail, so they're definitely not, but there's about six of them. It's unclean and gully from the looks of it, and I don't think it's robust.

"... Could it be a slum person"

"Slam."

"Yes, it extends around the city's southeastern walls and Riveri River collide. The area is poorly drained and sanitary, so normal people don't get very close."

I haven't been to the back of the slum, but I've stepped into the residential area and the border of the slum.

Actually, the church can be nearby. I don't know what it's like to have to build a place like that, but it's enough that that cleric was a little worried. She's beautiful. Or are there no humans in this world who would lay their hands on Ni?

If we get to the deepest end of the slam, it would mean that this bad gala guy is gobbling up.

"The castle gate closes at night, but there are many criminals out of the slums, as some pass along the river."

"Are you going to be a clandestine immigrant or something for once?

"I don't think there was a clear law, but that's just about it..."

Maybe he hasn't made a particular decision because he physically tightens it up.

It's better than that.

The battle had already begun.

Seriously.
