Inari wants to live in peace
Episode 3 Encounter with Honda (3) Chicken Hut
The rice harvest came to a halt, and the village at the foot had room for manpower.
As a result, work began on the replacement of the Omboro office where I live.
It was scheduled to be completed before winter arrived, so it was decided to move to the foot branch for a while.
But even after the rice harvest, the villagers were still sweating and working.
It is somehow uncomfortable that I am the only one in this situation who is worn out at home for God's sake.
I wouldn't mind at least being a little further away, but now I live in a branch at the foot where villagers are active.
As soon as the fox ears were clear, I could hear a lively voice of encouragement to work, gratitude and prayer to Inari God, and just relaxing without doing anything, and my shoulders were narrow.
For some reason, I usually stay at home, but I can't stand the punishment of conscience, so I went for a walk in the name of regular inspections every day.
In fact, it's just hanging around, but if you think it's close to confirming the territory of the dog and cat, it's not a good job.
The village chief seems to be quite busy now, and I took a dogsleigh in the village at the foot of the village and traveled on a daily walking course. I looked around with an interesting expression such as whether there was anything unusual or interesting about the territory.
As far as dog sledding is concerned, I am as small as I look.So the stride is also small, and it really makes me walk chocolate.
I didn't have any inconvenience because of my fox daughter's physical abilities, but because I was bringing a pack of wolves, the woodsman made me a dogsleigh.
It can't be used on the approach road, and when you run on unpaved streets, it shakes tremendously, but if you have the physical abilities of a fox daughter, you won't be shaken off.
So I was always able to run through with all my strength, and I felt like I saw a snow country in a movie or a drama.
By the way, I'm not the woodsmith who ordered the dogsleigh, but I asked the village blacksmith on the same day to make a special order frying pan, so I'm going to collect it today.
However, iron is precious and has a limited amount to use, and it seems that a round frying pan that has never been seen before was extremely difficult, resulting in a square, slightly bumpy egg griller.
I was going to bake a freshly bred egg with a chicken farmer, so there's nothing wrong with the application.
Besides, it's very generous because you made it for God Inari and provided it for free as a top priority.
It would be inferior to a malicious claimant to complain so far.
I offer my sincere thanks to the blacksmith, and as soon as I put the egg griller on the dogsleigh, I get in.
Then, with excitement, pull the rope and go to the next destination.
(Because the beekeeping hive is in trial and error, honey should actually be harvested after next year.
Then I guess the next move is chicken farming!)
Incidentally, when I went to the meeting of the beekeeping box, I learned that the villagers mistook the bees for nesting in the ground called snakes, and decided to fix it as bees to breed in a hurry.
As for chickens, the noise damage from the loud chorus was terrible, so a hut was built along the mountain outside the village.
So I ordered the wolves without hesitation, and next I went on a tour of the chicken farm.
Every time I cross paths with villagers, I greet them, but as I approach the breeding shed outside the village, the number of people gradually decreases.
Soon after I arrived at the chicken farm along the mountain, I stopped the dogsleigh and went down to the ground.
Even though it is a facility for keeping birds, it is not surrounded by wire nets as in the future.
Covering the surroundings with tall wooden fences keeps chickens out.This is the first step in breeding chickens, though it's a simple one with rainproof huts and storage.
I hope that some day, like the Japanese style of the future, a large number of chickens will produce a lot of eggs.
(I can't fly because I cut my wings.
Livestock killing is forbidden, so I didn't think it would be all my fault.)
But to be honest, I didn't have to hurt the animals myself.
But chicken farming is what I suggested.
What about Inari God (false) who is not responsible for his life?
As a result, the wings that became the axis of the chicken were cut off nervously using a hot water sanitized knife that had not yet been conceptualized in the Sengoku period.
Had I not killed the boar, I would have gotten nauseous, but fortunately I just hesitated.
(Live or die freely in harsh environments.Even the birds in the cage have three meals and a nap.
I wouldn't hesitate to choose the latter.)
If you're going to spend your whole life relaxing without feeling anxious every day, you're welcome to do so.
I don't know what the chickens think, but I decided at least to promise a life free of any inconvenience beyond what I've done with my own hands.
As I nostalgized the past at the entrance to the hut, a wolf patrolling to exterminate pests targeting chickens and crops, and behind it young women and children walked hand in hand and came here.
"Inari God!? I came all the way down to this place!It's the ultimate pleasure! "
"Never mind. You're going to have a hard time raising chickens."
These people seem to have lost their families in the war, and the villagers call them backhouses and orphans.
Compared to adult men, I felt much narrower in the countryside, where manpower is the dominant force.
"Not only does it give us this kind of work, but it also gives us compliments! I'm glad to hear it!"
"" "Thank you!!!" "
That's why, as far as I'm concerned, I just assigned the extra people, but thanks to the Inari God, I got to be thanked for everything.
People in the village were very happy that they didn't have to dump it in the mountains or sell it to people to buy it, even though it hasn't produced much yet.
Even though I made the plan, I don't think it will succeed, but will the accumulated achievements and faith in God make me do so?
Well, anyway, now that fulfilling my purpose is my top priority, I cough it up deliberately and change the subject.
"By the way, did the chicken lay eggs?"
"Sorry! When I saw you last night, not yet!"
Chickens that have barely improved their breeds do not think they will be able to lay eggs so easily.Having just moved there, I would be confused by the differences in the environment, and I could take it for granted that the back house responded in a way.
"Please don't apologize. It's within my expectations."
Besides, I and the villagers don't know the clear difference between males and females.Therefore, it is also possible that all ten wings are male.
(This is the chicken sent by Honda's boss, Matsudaira.
First of all, obtaining it was a top priority, so it was natural, and I didn't specify the exact number of males and females)
A little while ago, Matsudaira-san sent me a letter like a worm with ten chickens, so the grades of the ancient and Chinese texts were human. I managed to read it by writing time.
I look forward to the fruits of chicken farming and egg dishes.It turns out that it was, but unfortunately, it was delicious, and it seems that we can still report the cooking recipe.
Incidentally, this seems to be a sentence addressed to me, but since the village chief did not come in and have a direct acquaintance, Honda was a samurai who peered at the onsen and only knew that his boss was Mr. Matsudaira.
For now, it may still be born this morning, even last night.
I can't give up eating egg grill, I open the sliding door of the breeding shed and go inside.
In order to prevent chickens from escaping, it is a structure that cannot be put into rain-fed huts without first passing through the warehouse.
As I followed, I confirmed that all the villagers entrusted with the management of the chickens had entered and closed the entrance door securely.
And when you shift the sliding door that leads to the rain shack sideways, you can see the chickens walking freely through the grounds surrounded by wooden fences.
"Seven, eight, nine... one is missing."
"Inari God! I'm crouched in the corner of the rain shed!"
When I looked at you following the words of my child, the keeper, I found a chicken crouching in the corner of the rain shed to protect something.
There are no signs of movement from the scene at all, so there is a possibility of injury or illness, but there seems to be nothing abnormal about what I saw.
Excuse me.
Heading towards the crouching chicken, he grabbed it with his pale expectations and lifted it a little.
There was only one egg hidden under his stomach.
The soil is dirty and the variety has not improved, so it is a little smaller than modern times.
(It may be a small step for mankind, but it's a big step for me!)
I jumped into the joy of being able to eat egg dishes.
After this, there is a pile of work to be done such as raising males and females separately in order to increase the number, but I will leave it there for now.
But because of the floating, the chicken held in both hands is free quickly!And, I didn't realize at all for a while that I was rampant with a koke-koke-kun noise.
