I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle

"So I'm thinking about building a new city, but what do you think, Lillina?

"Is this your new city, Mr. Ars? Um, I don't know, but maybe it's okay. I think it would be nice if it were to be a base for those who have lost their places of residence."

"That's right. So, I have a favor to ask Lillina. Can you listen to me?

"Ah, is this a request from Ars? Of course, I'd be happy to ask, but what is it?

"There was a clothing artisan who left it with Lilina, right? I want those craftsmen."

"Are you a garment artisan? Sure, but I'm one of them, so may I ask what you're going to do with them?"

"Oh, sorry, sorry. The order of explanation is strange, right? Actually, I was hoping to set the direction of the city in building a new city. I'm thinking of making a city that specializes in garment making."

"Eh... are you going to make the city itself the main garment maker? I've never heard of it, but will it work?"

"I don't know. I just thought I'd try. We're going to split up the people who lost their place in the earthquake and are looking for work. To the city of Fontana, to Bartolia, my part-time brother, and to Arbarest, Bargas. But it may not be enough, so I thought I'd gather it in a newly built city and let it do needle work."

"Well, it's a craftsman's job to make clothes, but will someone with that kind of skill come? It's not an easy job, Ars."

"I know. I've been thinking about that, but I'll leave it there for now. We renovate Kawakita Castle in between the city of Fontana and Vulcania to create the city. Then I want to move the craftsmen there."

I decided to build a new city.

For now, it is also a response to the victims, and we want to accept people from the noble realm.

There may be people in between, but no matter how much you think about this, it can't be completely prevented, so you can only tell everywhere to be careful enough.

As a general rule, in Fontana, immigrants from the Urk District will be accepted as much as possible in Baltonia, the heart of the territory ruled by their part-time brother, and the Arbarest District will be taken over by Balgas.

Both of them are understaffed, so it will be possible to accept and handle them to some extent.

And if it exceeds the acceptance limit, or if it flows from the entire Fontana territory, or from another noble territory, it will be accepted in the city of Fontana.

But I'm trying to build a new city as an aid to that.

The city was decided to be built around a castle by the river, just north of the city of Fontana.

Kawakita Castle, this is also my first castle.

This castle was built against Raymond's Fontana army during the Balkan unrest, pouring river water into the moat to boost their defenses.

But then, after defeating Raymond, I agreed to a ceasefire with Carlos, and Kawakita Castle lost much of its raison d 'être.

Even so, it is a defensive base that can accommodate soldiers, and it is still the home town of merchants headed for Vulcania with minimal troops stationed there.

In fact, during the truce agreement with Carlos, a maximum number of soldiers could be kept in this Kawakita Castle.

Of course, that is still a valid arrangement, but I am the one running the Fontana family today.

You can change the terms a little.

Not where people originally lived, but here in Kawakita Castle are the Balkan knights and soldiers, and the rest are guests.

Even if you build a city around this castle and gather people, you won't have to worry about rubbing it big with existing residents.

Make clothes here with goat hair that you can pick up on a barca ranch.

Recently, the number of goats has been increasing, and up until now, only the finest yarns carefully selected by Liliner have been used as fabrics, but it would be good to actively use a lower rank of yarns.

"Um, I understand what Ars is thinking. I think it would be nice to build such a city over there. But are you still thinking too easily about needlework? You can't imitate the work of a craftsman that easily.

"I guess so. It's just that the clothing I'm thinking about might be a little different from Liliana's. I want to make clothes for the public."

"For the public?

"Yeah. Now clothes are still expensive, and craftsmen are doing a fine job of matching precious fabrics with nobles and knights. But eventually, I want to be able to make enough clothes for ordinary people to wear. To put it mildly, you want to grow the garment industry, which is dominated by ready-made garments from tailoring."

Is it ready-made clothing? However, garments need to be cut based on firm measurements in order to be tailored to the person's body. Properly cut and pasted clothes do not suit the human body, Arus. "

"That's right. It would have been if I had cut the fabric and made clothes without thinking about anything. So I'm going to create patterns out of patterns."

"Pattern? Pattern? What is it?"

"Everyone's body is different. The artisans take the difference and cut the fabric in three dimensions to match it. But the human body has both individual differences and commonalities. In other words, we're going to divide the size of the body into small, medium, and large for men and women. That way, you can choose and buy clothes that fit your body to a certain extent without having to be measured by a tailor."

Although I am in favour of building my city, I am suspicious of the idea of creating a city specialized in clothing.

I told the liner about making clothes I think.

Making clothes for Liliner is, in a sense, close to making artwork.

Anyway, they only have bespoke clothes that are crafted by craftsmen with skill.

Those in the upper ranks, such as aristocrats and knights, need to grow up as craftsmen in order to wear clothes that suit them.

A maestro that makes clothes for one good, demanding in taste and skill.

Such a professional group was what Liliner called a clothing craftsman.

But I'm a little different.

As my old man told me before, clothes are basically expensive in this world.

Just because we can produce fabrics and yarns ourselves doesn't mean that prices will be cheaper immediately.

Still, I wanted to drop a little more clothes to a price that I could easily buy.

To do this, it is good for experts to carefully make one piece at a time, but I think there is also a mechanism to make clothes that are mass produced from patterns.

And not everyone sews with needles and threads when it comes to making clothes.

Fabricate goat hair brought from Vulcania.

The job of dyeing the fabric into various colors and patterns.

A designer's job is to make clothes that are popular with the public.

The work of cutting fabrics using patterns based on their design.

And the job of sewing cut fabrics.

Alternatively, there are a wide variety of places to work, such as jobs related to food, clothing, accommodation, etc.

We need water to dye the dough, but we can use running river water for that.

Furthermore, the river leads a little downstream to the Kyle Dam where the slime inhabits.

Even if there is water contamination by dye, it will have the effect of cleaning it.

The castle in Kawakita has good conditions to build a new city and specialize in clothing.

In this way, I kept explaining to Liina many times, and I was successful in getting someone from among the clothing artisans who felt empathy for my way.

As a result, he quickly began redeveloping the area around Kawakita Castle.
