I Became the Demon Lord and my Territory is an Uninhabited Island
Episode 184: When I Bake a Brick
In the morning, as I declared yesterday, I make a brick-burning oven.
That said, I haven't burned the bricks yet, so I have to burn them.
The soil is pitted, and the waste wood is laid there. Dried bricks are laid side by side with a gap, and three layers are piled on top of it, and charcoal is put in the gap, and wood is put on and fired.
I want to be more efficient, but I'm the only one and decided to do it casually.
Because I'm burning bricks to burn bricks, and it's not efficient. Ring kiln? No need. I'm oversupplying
Rather, you can increase it as needed.
With a long wooden stick, you can put burned and crumbled wood on bricks. When wood becomes ash, it's just a matter of adding it.
Near noon, sandwich the single top brick with a wooden stick, place it on the soil, and wait for it to cool.
No problem if the surface is not hot to the touch. It was confirmed that it was no longer dry brick by hitting it with the second joint of the middle finger.
It is very similar to the stiffness of when I was migrant.
I smash the bricks on the stones rolling around them and halve them. It's still hot, but the fire is on. If the fire goes out and it burns out on its own, I think it's done. I want to cool down a little slowly, but it's not a kiln ...
"I don't think it's a fire ..."
The charcoal-like thing is stored in the bottom of the hollow soil, and the ash blows when the wind blows, but it doesn't feel like a spark.
"Fleur, watch out, I'll write some papers in the afternoon."
"I understand. I'll tell you if the fire is going to spread."
"Thank you. Maybe if you leave it, it will probably disappear tomorrow morning."
It's slow if it's going to spread ...
After lunch, I write papers.
"Construction of a selenite distillation facility (draft)"
Yeah, it looks like that.
Rent the land of an abandoned house near the slum of Selenite and dismantle if there is a building. If there is a warehouse where the distillation facility is likely to enter, renovate it.
Raise the profile of beryl liquor, aiming for a slightly lower salary for minor criminals who employ slums or lower-class dwellers and cannot work nearby.
Strict liquor management and, in the worst case, security. If there is a demand, consider storing the original sake in barrels and immediately shipping it without storing it.
To learn the procedure, dozens or more of long-term employment, and in the case of simple work, day employment is also possible. For long-term employment, there is a promotion. Unskilled labor involves transporting liquor to the warehouse, transporting raw materials, and replenishing fuel.
Even if it is difficult to write, it is not. I don't want to read that there are too many technical terms, such as Party A and Party B ... It's a personal opinion. So I think this is fine.
And at the entrance to the warehouse, do you write down the work of day laborers? The lower the threshold, the better. But I don't want to be lined up for day employment.
Next is the price of raw materials and fuel, such as wheat, for 30 sunrises. The total salary when the number of employed or day laborers is less than ten per day.
And the amount of liquor that will be made and the price of selling it. The deducted sales, the land cost, and the estimated tax to be paid. End all other calculations.
"I have sore eyes. I don't wanna eat blueberries."
I don't think my eyes got better, I felt that my eyes wouldn't get any worse.
I think there was a guy who made a bank around the eyes with bread dough and filled it with human skin butter.
I don't know how to open my eyes in the oil, but it seems that my eyestrain can be reduced. But do I put up with warm towels?
I got out of the back door a little bit, picked fresh mint and refreshed with herbal tea.
"I want to put it in a fancy glass pot and steam it .... I use cork for the lid. I want a glass cup, and the saucer is of course glass."
It's also important to look at glass crafts from a famous place for private use. Focus on practicality? Sometimes I want to ignore it. And when it's hot, she pours tea into a saucer, drinks it, and gets pulled. I don't.
In addition, I eat a few cookies in a basket woven from wood bark and replenish my brain with sugar.
The door was knocked, and he answered.
"Calm, why don't you rest a little?"
"Ah……"
"Ah--"
A little awkward time flows, but responds with a smile.
"Well, I'm just happy when I started to lose my concentration."
I did not do it.
In the office, take a rest with three people including Parlor.
There are some stories on the island that are casual and the ships that come to the island to buy are only about the gossip of the sailors, but there are also things that can't be silly.
"Is it true that the islanders have heard from a tribal sailor that it is true that they are accepting people on a trial basis on the island? Is corundum steadily selecting?"
"I heard it from Harde."
Harde? The parlor makes friends with the dog-eared uncle, so is that uncle? No, it's no use, I don't know even if you call me by name because the old guys with chemo ears have settled in me.
"Well, I'm telling the brave man in the royal capital of the race the demands of the staff of the fourth village. Do you think it's time to decide?"
Answer the gossip while drinking coffee.
"Then, what about recruitment from Serenite? Did you get permission from Karza?"
She seems to be worried about the demons who are not moving.
"The manager of the tavern, where the troys of the third village hanged, said that the rumors had spread in the slum, and we should have been there. It looks like they're making a voice, maybe it's going to happen soon, because somehow Trow is returning to Serenite with Iseria from time to time. "
"I see, there are fewer problems if Mr. Trow puts it together."
"I'm from an orphanage and it's kind of caring."
The talk breaks once, and everyone drinks coffee.
"Oh, so what about Rush?"
That? What is it?
"Yes, I haven't come because I haven't come yet, but I think it probably won this time."
I spouted the second cup of coffee sideways in a big way.
"Is there a man here once?"
I think it's probably a child. As a first aid, wipe the floor yourself.
"What are you talking about? Mr. Calm. You have two wives, each with a child, but are you still up?"
"No ... Isn't it a problem to be told dignifiedly? And did you tell him (Keith)?"
"No, not yet. I haven't decided yet. I'll tell you if I don't come about once more. Of course, stay confidential."
Rush is drinking coffee as usual. Are you okay? I will tell you casually later.
"Well, I wouldn't say so ... but I'm always a good adult, so I won't be upset."
"Is Calm upset when you have a child?"
"No, no, my hometown friend was so upset? I was nine years old."
It's about Wurst.
"At my time, I was prepared, I was reluctant to aim ..."
"Hey, it was not youth and momentum."
Then I talked a bit back in the old days and said that he had made some money, so he thought he could make a child without any problems.
"I've always been personal. I've grown up to the point where my parents worry."
The parlor is squeezing the cookie while saying he is sober.
"I was told by my father-in-law. I am more adult than me. Well this is all I can do."
I'm a reincarnation.
"Well, I'll continue writing the documents."
"Ah, I'm a little worried, so can I show you anyway?"
"it does not matter"
I didn't skip it, so I brought in the documents that were in the works.
Rush opened his mouth a bit through the documents.
"I plan to make it near the slum ..."
"Yes, I'm smoldering because there's no employment in that area. If that aristocrat doesn't care, I'll just use it to sell my favors to both."
"I'm scared of Mr. Calm's smile at such times."
"I agree, my face is thinking about bad things. Oh, I'm also considering day employment."
He turned over the documents one by one and asked Rush, who was checking them.
"Yes. Well, I think security issues and ethics are a problem at first, but I would like to do something in a community-based way. Even if the worst warehouses are open and festivals, and if you distribute sake, food and sweets, your feelings will improve. I guess, and maybe some people only work when they don't have the money, maybe even some kids who have to work. "
Well, it's a kind of dissemination. Also consider the conditions of day employment for children. Otherwise, it would be the same amount of work as an adult.
"Are you not profitable?"
"It's just the first time the liquor is made. It's better than being burglared or set on fire. Attract a cheap public canteen in the neighborhood or build a worker canteen in the distillery. is not it"
It's like a canteen.
"I'm thinking a lot"
"I want to make the welfare well."
"" Is this the same thing? "
"Oh. It's an environment where workers and their families can work satisfactorily."
"Then, this island doesn't seem to have any problem. I have a rest before noon and before dinner, and I have three meals ready. So is your tea time right now?"
"If you take it broadly, it will be abolished when it gets bigger, and I think it will be left to each workplace. Well, I want to continue as much as possible, and I also want people who work to cook meals exclusively."
It's not enough, but it's probably necessary.
"I'm really thinking."
"Well, I want everyone to work comfortably."
"I have such a personality since I was a child. I'm a little less confident about childcare."
"Yes, me too. I'm too nervous, which makes me anxious. I heard that Mr. Cravatte was naughty when he was a child."
"Why do you go back to my childhood story? Well, I'm worried as a parent even if it's a child who can't handle it .... I might have been really worried ..."
Hold your mouth slightly and make a slight bitter look.
"I didn't realize I was that way ..."
"Yeah ... but sometimes there's something childish, so it's good or bad that I don't think the contents have grown since I was a child ..."
Rush takes something seriously. I guess it's terrible ...
"Well, well, it's really good for my childhood. I'm going to move in this direction."
I returned to the office with the documents as I ran away, and without helping, drained the coffee with [warm water], washed it lightly, and returned to document preparation.
"Ah, the towels I mentioned earlier, but if you don't do it early, it will stain ....
Parlor dropped in after seeing a towel hanging on the window sill.
Maybe I was also taking my mother's job.
