"Mr. Maddock, would you like to help me with my work?
I understood the origin of the woodcutter's wrath, and after a while I thought about it, I said so to Maddok.
"What are you talking about at work? Are you talking about your pioneering work?
"It's a little different. I've been listening to Maddok and thinking. I'm going to manage the forest from now on."
"Forest management?
"Yeah. I think it's the only thing that's good for me to get rid of the discontent of the wood-loving woodcutters and start digging. I think we should create a man-made forest, not a forest left to nature today."
"Wait, wait, you can't do that. Forests are not like that. The power of nature is beyond the power of man."
Mr Maddok will immediately disagree with what I said. [M]
But I'm not going to say anything so wrong.
It's not just an idea.
I conclude that knowledge of the past life is better.
I think my pace of development is unusual.
I hear that the forest extending north of the village is vast, but no one in the village knows how vast it is.
Because they say if you get lost, no one will come back.
However, if I combine my magic with the power of the Valkyries who inherit it it, I believe that the size of the forest will be greatly reduced.
Deforestation is serious environmental damage.
The loss of trees from the earth will drastically reduce the water retention of the land.
The harvest will then be lost in the field, and rain may wipe out all the nourishing soil.
In severe cases, desertification may occur.
Environmental destruction is not the only problem.
Speaking of environmental destruction alone, it's probably not while I'm alive, so it's more likely that another problem will arise.
It is the disappearance of firewood.
If you run out of all the trees, it will be difficult to get firewood.
This is a terrible incident if you live here.
In my previous life, I didn't think about firewood when it was heated by gas or electricity.
But in this world, firewood is used for heating.
It is possible to ignite with life magic, but without firewood there is nothing to burn.
If winter comes in that state, everyone will surely freeze to death.
I don't think it would be a bad idea to think about measures for that from now on.
In terms of forest management, I think I'll do forestry.
I have heard that properly managed forests are very beneficial to humans.
It is also possible to reduce the impact of deforestation, as mentioned earlier.
In addition, there will be stable access to quality forest resources.
In the woods left to nature, trees and grasses grow to the point where they do not deliver light to the earth.
It's too thick for a solid tree to grow.
Proper thinning and better sunshine will make it a durable piece of wood.
Besides, my business plan also includes cultivating magical mushrooms.
We need logs to produce magical mushrooms.
I don't want to go out of my way to eat up the woods.
"That's why I want to keep the forest under control. It's like planting a tree in a field. But even though I've grown vegetables and wheat, I don't know much about trees. That's why I was wondering if I could use the help of a forest expert like Maddok."
"Hmm. To be honest, I can't imagine it really happening after the forest trees are gone....."
"Maybe so. But you can see the effectiveness of forest management somehow. Besides, if Maddok doesn't approve, I might end up knocking down trees in disorder. I don't think it would hurt to act with me to prevent that."
I feel like it's becoming like half a threat by saying it yourself.
But even though I'm lost, Mr. Maddok seems to be starting to show interest.
After a while, I asked everyone else to talk to me, so I went home that day.
After all, a few days later, Mr. Maddok convinced the woodcutters of my words.
The woodcutters were half-hearted about what I said. [M]
However, it seemed calm to me that Mr. Maddok would look at the child a little bit more.
This is how I decided to manage the northern forest while exploring it.
It doesn't matter, but would it be better to admit that I control the forest than to admit that the forest belongs to me?
Should I say that I look at the trees and not at the forest, but at the trees and not at the land?
During this period, the atmosphere that the north of the village was somehow my jurisdiction began to spread in the village.
