Inari wants to live in peace

I dragged myself to my home in the middle of the mountain.

Having fully played with my family, I wondered what happened to the well I dug and decided to go down to the village at the foot for the first time in a few days.

After a few rounds of journeys, I got used to it and ran down to the village without stopping. From time to time, I greeted the neighbors appropriately and went to the well of interest.

"What happened?"

"Anyway, we gathered the men and made stone masonry, so we're almost done!"

There was a village chief nearby, so when I called, he answered me with excitement.

You said you couldn't dig a well because you didn't have enough manpower or money.

Still, it seems that the work I did was very big, and the rest can be managed by gathering men from all over the village.

"Inari God was digged deep, so there was a danger of collapse over time ─ ─"

It was also explained that it was my fault that the construction was going through all night, and I feel very sorry for it.

However, I was still close to completion with a low budget, so I was able to contribute to the village, so I opened it up again.

If the water shortage could be alleviated, it would have served as a god of Inari.

Besides, well water filtered underground is less likely to go down than water from a river full of germs.

It should certainly be positive in the long run.

And while I was thinking about this, the excited village chief kept talking.

But when I realized that I had only dropped my voice a little along the way, I was pulled back into reality.

"But there was only one problem ─ ─"

Issue?

When wells are completed, they are less susceptible to water shortages than relying solely on rivers.This should be for sure.

I await the continuation of his words as to what the problem is.

"Because the well is deep, it is difficult to pull up the fishing bottle."

When I hear that, I accidentally lose my words.

In the future, it can be pumped up with an electric pump, so just push the button or twist the faucet.

However, there are certainly no such convenient goods in the Sengoku period.In other words, it depends almost entirely on manpower.

The deeper the well, the harder it becomes to pull up the fishing bottle (vine), and if it is a healthy young man, it may be hard work for women, children and the elderly.

It would be much easier to pump water to the nearby river than before, and even if you might get hungry, everyone in the area would choose you.

(Could it have failed?)

Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well.

Still, if the river water dries up, you'll use the well like a shitty one, and you'll need to be prepared in case of an emergency.

Therefore, the effort spent cannot be said to have been wasted.

But as it stands, the well I dug desperately is very likely to be forgotten.Rather than pragmatizing, Inari's reputation could decline.

(Do something!... We have to do something!)

When I saw a woodworker hanging a fishing bottle with a rainproof roof on a well that had been made of stone, I put out a fox fire that I no longer needed, and somehow asked myself a lot of questions.

"Don't you have pulleys in the well?"

Oh, pulley?

Instead of the village chief, the village carpenter tilted his neck, so I picked up the stick of wood that had fallen around it and held it in my hand.

"Um, pulleys are..."

And at the top of the wooden stick, I will briefly draw a well with pulleys that appeared in the era play.

It is helpful that I am blessed with pictures, but the artisans in the village looked at my paintings and put their arms together to think about it.

"Only the part of the ring rotates, allowing the bottle to be pulled up by pulling down."

In the first place, people should have pulled out the Ohachi in the era play.

Basically, it is the same principle, so I thought it was strange that it was not in the Sengoku period, but even if it existed, the road in the village at the foot was bumpy, and if it rained and became moist, it could not move immediately.

Rubber tires may be a little better, but wooden tires can't help it.

So, thinking in the corner of his head that there must be something but it didn't spread, he suggested that the village craftsmen start with a model before creating the actual pulley.

And the same technology is used for the water wheel, but it is difficult to miniaturize at any time, so I had to put it in the corner of my head, and now I am desperately gesturing so that I can use the well, and I continued to give an awkward explanation.

Even though the wells I dug were heavily pumped with water, for some reason the villagers used them very often.

It seems to be called Inari-sama's holy water, etc., and depending on how you listen, you may be mistaken for the R18 meaning.

It was very embarrassing, but the water quality was good, and it seemed tastier than the river water, and I was glad that the users weren't zero.

However, it will only jump because of the rarity of things like the new opening sale, and it won't last that long, so I'm sure I'll soon get bored or forget.

So before that happens, I'd like to install a pulley and make it a little more convenient.

With such agony, the mayor of the village came all the way to the Omboro office and told me that the woodworker at the foot of the village wanted to hear about the pulley.

Since the structure of the pulley was simple, I was optimistic at first that it should be made soon even in the Sengoku period, but when I went down to the foot and went to the woodworker's workplace, there was a heavy air and I was very confused.

"Lord Inari! Thank you for coming!Take a look at this first! "

The parent who had just been waiting showed me a prototype pulley instead of a model, so I would hold it in my hand and observe it from various angles, and actually turn it around.

"Apparently, there is a misalignment between the inner and outer circular sizes."

A certain amount of play is necessary, but when the gap increases, each time it is rotated, it shakes and becomes fragile due to the load.

However, since it is made of wood, it cannot be helped that it is difficult to endure.Still, if you just pump water a few times and it breaks, or if it shakes strangely, or if there is a corner rather than a circle and the rotation doesn't go smoothly, you can say that the pulley has no meaning.

Above all, it hurts the name of Inari God, who taught him knowledge and skills.

"Well, I'll make the first one."

"Inari God himself!?"

"I saw and learned about the structure of the pulley earlier.I can handle this.... maybe. "

The fox's daughter's physical abilities were incredible and she quickly completed the pulley.

Before that, I failed about three times, but it was extremely short because I shaken the tool at a high speed, and my parents were happy to say that you would publicly exhibit it for the education of new recruits as a noble sacrifice and a useless sample.

As for me, there was a spicy feeling of grandiose disclosure of black history, but I didn't think of any reason to dispose of it, so I could only shamefully turn my eyes and reply that you should like it.

Regardless, I received a cedar of tools and materials from a woodworker, told my physical abilities to dig a circle accurately at an incredible speed, and was explained to the craftsman on site, so I often stopped my hand on the way, but I managed to complete pulley number one safely.

"Is this the pulley?"

"Yes, it is a tool that draws water by pulling down rather than up by attaching a rope to a central groove."

There are many other applications, so in the future I will try to create with this in mind, and I will give them the pulley No. 1 after I have finished my work.

"Is the installation work OK?"

"It's okay! We're all set!I can't bother God Inari any more! "

Sure enough, just fix the pulleys to the rain cabin, so it's as good as done.

I smiled satisfactorily and said I was looking forward to it. I turned my back to the woodsmiths who looked down deeply and went back to the mountains.
