14-03 Jen's Activity
"What is this..."
"Oh, is this it? This is a dish called" Pashta "that I recently started making in Toka village. Finish the flour, round it thinly and stretch it..."
"Huh?"
Lisia's explanation suggests she's extending each bottle to make it. If you look good and good, the thickness is subtly varied like a hand-cut udon cut by an amateur. I hope so.
"... that's a shame"
The sauce you are hanging from is too inappropriate.
It is hung with a sauce like a thin sweet vinegar sprinkle. I know some people like this flavor, but it's not suitable for everyone, Jen thought. At least not Jen's taste.
It's not an inedible flavour but it's not balanced. I feel like it would taste delicious if I sprinkled it by the baked noodles instead of pasta.
"… spices, or"
Pepper can be found in this world, but it can be picked in the south, just like Earth. The same is difficult to cultivate from seeds. Normally it is a tree insertion cultivation.
The cultivation method is not known to Jen, but since Penglai is subtropical, pepper can also be cultivated, which was obtained via row 5 (Quinta) earlier and cultivation had begun.
Aside from that, Jen thought while eating pasta that if he could find a spice to replace the pepper, he might be able to make it a specialty of the village of Toka.
After lunch, Jen was just looking for a hot spring water vein. I don't like to stand still because I'm poor, and it was easy for the common folk Lisia and Saki to keep pace with Jen too.
Neither does Elsa have a hard time fitting in because her life with Jen has been so long and she has remembered Jen's pace.
But it seemed a little harsh on Berche, the lady who was born, and Jen told me not to force it, but it's okay, and he was following me.
"Underground Exploration (Grand Search)"
There were fewer water veins in Toka village with no volcano nearby than in Kaina village. but when I looked carefully, I found one thing that seemed to have a lot of water.
"Oh, there seemed to be a good"
"Really? Good!"
Lisia rejoiced in a small leap when she heard the results.
"What did I tell you, I found a copper mine nearby..."
"Is it copper? Is mining easy?"
There are several types of copper ore, but what is buried here seemed to be a brass mine. It is an important copper ore.
"I think it's easy because it's near the surface. If you can afford it, you can try mining it."
"Thank you!
The tax system in the Kingdom of Klein is in the form of payments made by the inhabitants to the Lords and by the Lords to the State. Since the amount paid by the Lords to the State is determined by the number of inhabitants and the tax rate, the increase in income within the Territory was to enrich the lives of the inhabitants.
If a new copper mine is possible, Toka Village's income will increase. Not that it's a specialty, but an immediate goal was achieved for Lisia.
But now it is a hot spring first.
"Well, can you make it here?"
Braak, the village chief of Toka, determined the location. It is by a small river.
Liscia called it in order to make hot springs. Several other young people and children watched with curiosity about what Jen would do.
"Elsa, this is also an application of earthly magic."
Jen uses magic while explaining that.
"" Digging ""
Magic for digging holes, water hoards, tubs, drains, and sedimentary ponds of waste water, and Jen digging.
Elsa also learned the procedure with interest for a task different from the usual workmanship.
However, no matter how much it activates in contact, I don't realize that Jen can dig holes as deep as dozens of meters at once.
Such Jen goes on to work at my pace.
After following the procedure carried out in the village of Kaina, a hot spring was formed immediately.
However, the hot spring here is a simple spring. It doesn't smell like sulfur, it's colorless, clear water. The temperature is also about 50 degrees Celsius, and there is no need to mix the water and cool it. Store it in a hoard of water and it will warm up properly.
"All you have to do is have a little roof."
"Yes, I'll do that here! Mr. Village Chief, please. I'll give you a daily allowance...... Mr. Village Chief?
Toka village chief Braak had seen Jen's hand for the first time and was hardened by the shock. Lisia speaking up again.
"Mr. Village Chief!
"... Ha, yes! Oh, oh, you just need to roof here and surround yourself, right?
"That's right. Let the villagers use it. I'll take care of it."
Nor is Licia willing to talk about details from the beginning. It is her own idea to get a daily allowance out of the reserve and revitalize the village.
"Okay. Let's get started."
"Thank you, Jin!
Back at the Lordship Hall, Lisia bowed her head to Jen.
"So what can I do to thank Mr. Jin"
"No, if you ask the person..."
"No, because I want to be honest with Mr. Jin"
Even if Straight says so, Jen can't say anything inadvertently. Pull out your knowledge when you were working.
(Since I am a technician, I pay about 5,000 yen an hour, and 2,000 yen in four hours. The travel time is 2,000 yen as 10 hours round trip when calculated at 2,000 yen per hour. 1000 yen as a travel allowance, roughly 5,000 yen, 5,000 torr for torr, etc.)
"Well, then, at 5,000 torres"
"Huh."
Lisia doubted her ears. Hiring a common free magician (magician (Magicraftsman) or healer) will not lower 10,000 torres per day. I was wondering if Jen, the magic engineer Magicraft Jazz, would ask for about 50,000 torres.
But Jen seems to have taken Lisia's reaction in the opposite sense.
"Uh... Was it a little expensive?
I said something like that. Neither Elsa nor Berche could say anything about this because they basically don't know the market because they don't do those financial exchanges themselves.
"Yes, no, the other way around! I was wondering if it would be so cheap..."
"Uh... Lysia, so that means your friend's price..."
Jen deludes herself in an aggressive manner. But Lisia was happier than Jen thought when she heard the words.
"Oh yeah!... Friends! Ugh, thanks!
Elsa stared alternately at Lisia and Jen's face like that and sighed small.
I will be staying in the village of Toka that night.
Since there was still time before sundown, Jen accompanied Reiko around for a walk in the village.
"Ooh, Gutsuzu, you're new!
"Damn, I'm a doozy."
If Jen sees such a voice, it is a garrison of soldiers.
Sixteen or seven or so soldiers of appearance who said he was still a boy were being smashed by senior soldiers.
"Oh, come on, get it."
He held the package for five, and the boy soldier was fluttering but walking with him after the senior soldier.
Almost in a place called the barracks, one of the soldiers going in front kicked Marutai in front of the boy.
The boy, whose feet were not visible because of his luggage, is taken off his legs and falls. Naturally, the baggage I had was scattered.
"Shh, excuse me..."
"Oh, shit. Drop your stuff. You got dirty."
"I'm sorry"
You're out of dinner tonight.
Coldly so, the soldiers walking in front picked up their baggage and wiped it with one of the wraps rolling mud on the baggage and went into the barracks.
"... that's terrible"
Everywhere I go, they have something called junior snoring by seniors. Jen could no longer watch, and went to the boy soldier.
"Are you okay?
He hit me in the knee when I fell, and I saw that boy who couldn't quite stand up,
"Cure"
I used healing magic. Only in the beginning could Jen do it, but it seemed to work well enough.
"Oh, thank you. It's easier."
That's what the boy said and stood up, thanking Jen for picking up his stuff.
"Oh, wait a minute"
Jen told the boy to wait a moment when he saw the mud rubbed for the four.
"'Purification (Cleanup)'"
It is an engineering magic that removes dirt. Look at the cleaned luggage, the boy bows his head again.
"Oh, thank you! I, no, myself, say Fred. I became a soldier this year!
"Fred? I'm Jin."
"Lord Jin, right? Is Lord Jin from this village?
"No, I'm a resident of Kaina Village north of here."
"Huh? Kaina Village?... Jin... also, could it be Lord Jin Nido!?
"Oh, yeah..."
By going to Toka Village next door, you would have heard quite a bit about Jen, Fred wolfed and nearly dropped the luggage he had.
"And I beg your pardon!
Fred hurried into the barracks when he saluted him most cleverly with his luggage.
Jen was concerned about the boy named Fred even after he returned to the Lordship Hall in Lisia.
When you put in a group that is already able to calm down, you tend to get into trouble until you're really familiar with it.
A stressful group of soldiers would be even worse, Jen thinks.
Even in Jen's orphanage, it takes time for a newly arrived child to be accepted. Of course there is a personal difference, with some children early and others slow.
Jen is the oldest stock in the orphanage...... he was an old man, so I've seen a lot of those new kids, and I've been hanging on to them.
Such a Jen-stained habit probably makes Fred care.
"Lord Jin, what's wrong?
At dinner, Jen, voiced by Gloria, told her and Lisia what she saw in the evening.
"Hmm, half the garrisons were replaced today, but that's..."
Gloria only used to be a former instructor, and she looked like she had chewed up a bitter bug when she heard the story.
"Let's just keep an eye out"
Licia also contracted.
