It Seems I Came to Another World, Now What Should I Do

Episode 394: The First Step to Making Salt

"Kabia, what about the communication sentences you bring to the pigeons?

"Yes, based on what I received. After that, you'll send it with the permission of the village chief."

Mr. Mermaid's todo is bordered by the rest of Mr. Mermaid's members. The kids can't eat that much originally so they already recover and watch Taro and Hime eat bird moss with interest.

My people will be able to get up in a little while, although Ray is embracing them.

Leaving the soup at this temperature is likely to hurt, so when it cooled somewhat, I decided to let it cool with ice.

"I wonder if I can lend you a pigeon for emergencies... It's not an emergency in the village."

"Baron...... Saying the Baron will be raided is more urgent than a village emergency. Don't worry there."

He smiles and answers bitterly as Kabia embraces Tiana.

"How late did you tell me it would be?

"Because it's about the Baron. We talked about it around noon, so it's still okay."

Kabia tells it with a mixed face. I wonder if I don't have that much credit.

"Because the Baron will stick around at events that will please everyone to say this. The results are visible. Since it will also be an interaction with mermaids, the village chief has spoken to me about it."

Hmm. I did plan on getting them to eat and make quantities until I was todo, so is that assessment correct? I don't know what to say, I want to feed Kansai's aunt until she's full of temperament. I want to satisfy you.

"Ko...... I apologize for this attitude. This time, too, I have given you an exaggerated response... Thank you......"

Belhemia, can't you jump full? I'll roll over and say thank you.

"No. Glad to hear it. Above all. The children's smiles are hard to replace."

"Since before, the lord looked forward to seeing when he could come. But it far exceeded my expectations. It was delicious, and I was surprised. I didn't know there was such a dish."

Simple baking dishes, boiled and cooked would be done by those in the village. But there will be no tempura or change sphere.

"It's local food. I thought it was rare. I'm just using a lot of oil, so I might get a little heartburn."

However, the tempura itself did not hit that many. It would be about three sayoli and two shrimps. I tried pretty hard to fry it down, but before this number I was helpless.

"I don't think a little heartburn is an issue before the deliciousness. And I'm not going to say it's that hard. One way or another, I got a lot of seafood grilled, so I'm stronger full."

Belhemia answers with a smile. I'm sure you haven't heartburned that far. The amount I ate is enough, and I don't know if it bothers me enough. Oil is still in stock. The rest of the mermaids can eat it too. I guess I'm just worried about securing the eggs.

"Well, can you take care of the mermaids?"

Speak to Belhemia, then head to your people.

"Ray, what's your situation?

"Well, I was wondering if there's a problem because I eat too much every time. Rest in four and a half hours and you will recover."

"Okay. There is instruction on salt production work at the village chief's office. I'll handle that one. Once everyone's recovered, keep them in training. With the grass, you won't need an escort. Only the soup serves ice over there, so if it cools somewhat, I wonder if you want it to cool in ice water. I use shrimp gala, so this warmth is going to hurt me."

"Okay. I'd like to accompany the escort if I can, but with the help of the Baron, don't you even need... Yes, priority will be given to this response. Kabia, if you need anything, please respond. Remember the minimum VIP protection?

"Yes, at least it will be a shield when it comes to the first shot"

Ha... It's not SP, so you don't have to do that. There is "alert", and even if there is "hiding", it can react if it moves nearby. To say you can react is synonymous with saying you can shoot through with a simulator. I've grown so proficient. Ranged shooting is not verifiable, but as long as it's not a gun at the moment, it's not possible. I know Longbow has not been developed, and I don't particularly care because Crossbow is relatively dangerous, but the killing distance is within my 'alert' range. It's a threat that 'hidden' possessions will hold in the future, but as things stand, only one of Rossa's is real, and it's useless to think about.

"You don't have to worry about it because I'll do something about it myself. Bye, Kabia. I need guidance."

"Baron, it's not worth protecting."

Kabia smiles bitterly, leading the way.

Walk some way from the cove and enter the village from the cove side entrance. Heading to the village chief's house, he seems to be eating well over there.

"Oh, Baron. Thank you for responding to the mermaids."

"Well, it's like a hobby, so don't worry. Caviar, the example thing."

"Yes."

Finish the unpleasant and troublesome things first.

"Oh, my God, such a thing... I wish we had talked yesterday."

"No, because yesterday I couldn't make it in writing. Later, because the raids were dodgy, it was not necessary to consider the impact until the village, and it could be a useless worry. There's nothing unusual about intelligence, is there?

"Yes, we have confirmed everyone as of the noon call, and we are not experiencing any particular problems. Oh, is it a tiger? We're telling you about it, so we're trying to stay away from it more than we need to."

The village chief answers.

"Okay. So, salt maker, shall we get started?"

With that said, the village chief will direct you to Shioda.

Store seawater manually from the sea in a seawater bucket via a first flow plate. As it is, some evaporated seawater accumulates in an intermediate barrel, which passes through a second underflow plate. When passing through the flow plate, the water gate is opened and closed so that the appropriate amount can flow thinly overall. When dark sea water flows through the circulation tank, sprinkle it with jouro onto the branch rack and let it drip. Adjust here to increase the salt concentration and lead it to the indoor kanji tank.

In case of rain, the flow into the water tank is prevented by a water gate, and the intermediate barrel and circulation tank are graded so that the water can be drained straight into the sea.

"This is yesterday's kanji tank for today."

There's water shaking in a pretty big pool. Make little balls out of earthwork, lick them and lick them. The salt concentration has risen considerably. The salt concentration is also high for the portion that is allowed to go around with the branch rack. However, the ash juice is tight and sinister due to strong stiffness.

"That's enough for a thing. You can take a fair amount of salt even if you make it. By the way, how many people are involved in salt making as it stands?

"There are four people outside, and we have two sixes planned for kettle cooking in the future. Spraying on the branches is the main task for the four of us out there."

"Don't you talk about how hard it is to work?

Ask the village chief.

"No, not at all. On the contrary, I'm half-hearted that this is such an easy task."

Uh. People in this world really don't have a compromise on manual labor. Farmers are heavy laborers every day, so when you get used to it, how easy is it to just water them with Jouro?

"Including cauldron cooking for six, make sure you can rotate. It would be desirable if one could have enough time to rest completely."

"Really...? No, I'm saying we can still afford it, but still?

"The cauldron cooking is harsh. And if this succeeds, it will increase in scale. I have trouble being told to cry then. I need you to make an effort to turn it around when you're proficient and on a larger scale."

"You said exams. It's called a test in a facility of this size."

"Increase the number of cauldrons in parallel if firewood self-sufficiency begins. If that happens, I don't think we'll have enough people. Consider future responses in view of replenishment."

That said, he leads me from the kanju to the cauldron. I can see a unique cauldron about two meters in diameter and thirty centimeters deep. When I look to the side, he also puts a barrel for filtration.

"So, do you want to start a rough fire?"

Well, we need to fight for six hours from here. Let's get in the mood.
