There are ten children in front of me.

Four are about four years old and the remaining six are about eight years old.

In short, it's a kid abandoned ... Why is this timing?

I should be patient in January and February.

If you're too serious to be patient, shouldn't you throw it away in winter?

"The child is thrown away twice, the first is the wheat harvest season. In the case of poor harvest, the village mayor elects it. The second is after the end of the new year. This will be slower in the second half of the winter, when it will only be known that we will not be able to survive the winter. Some parents want to send them out after the New Year's celebration at least. "

"I see. Thanks for the commentary."

I ask the children the names and assign a house.

Saved lives help as much as possible.

It's okay, as Griffon's support lasts until the wheat is harvested.

And next year, I'll give you a good harvest.

"Hey, Almus"

"What?"

"Wheat is enough?-Next year, if you don't have enough crop, you should prepare for about fifty people."

Tetra says that his savings will definitely bottom out for the second consecutive year.

Is growing wheat enough now? That's Tetra's question.

"It's okay. I'm raising my fertilizer to make wheat. I can harvest more than usual. I have a lot of fields and I grow barley."

This area is dominated by two-field agriculture.

In short, once the wheat is harvested, the field is rested for a year.

Food production efficiency is very poor.

On the other hand, we are agriculture farmers. Production efficiency is completely different.

There is no need to worry about Tetra.

"But, isn't it really possible for two consecutive years?"

"I don't know. But this cursed group has a lot of pretty good sorcerers and has enough money to make sacrifices. So maybe it's been a year ... … "

"However?"

"The kingdom of Rossais may be different."

The kingdom of Rossais ... Is it a middle nation on the south side of the Romano forest?

"How can I say that the kingdom of Rossais is safe, not the other great powers?"

"Because there is Yulia"

Is Julia from the kingdom of Rossais? I've never heard of it.

Looking at my face, Tetra answered.

"She is quite a celebrity"

"But other kids were the first time they met?"

"... Someone in the upper class. She's twelve years old this year, she'll be working as a sorcerer for Rossais."

Is Julia 12 years old ...

"I want to change the setting to 12 years old instead of 11 years old?"

"... if I do it myself"

Good. I'm 12 years old from today.

I don't know the exact age anyway. Eleven years old and twelve years old have not changed much.

I mean, I'm actually over 20 years old.

"Let's just think that the workforce has increased. The harvest will rise. I'm more worried about the old man. Why not work the old man ..."

Not very efficient.

In fact, it's just about rice.

"The old man is not much thrown away"

"why?"

"... I have one of eight children, but only one mother and one father."

I was convinced.

"In the first place, they usually die before they reach the age of fifty. Long lived old people are like proof of health and are hard to kill."

Is that auspicious?

If you live for a long time, people around you seem to have strong feelings.

Is there more resistance than abandoning the child?

"Do you not ask?"

"what?"

"Why I knew about Julia"

Ah, the "famous among the people above" remarks?

"I'm worried but don't listen. Please talk when I'm up."

"so……"

Tetra was relieved, but fell slightly lonely.

____________

"That's amazing! Wheat grows so much. What kind of magic did you use?"

"I'm not doing anything special."

In front of me are golden wheat ears.

Did you say it was a great harvest?

"Where are you?"

"Huh! I'm fine thanks to me. I won't go to a good harvest, but this year I don't have to worry about starvation. My dad was happy."

Really. That was good.

"Where is it?"

"It's barley."

Julia listens in a mysterious voice.

"Do you need to rest the field?"

"It's good. I have a little trick."

When I answer, Julia looks straight at the barley.

But he didn't seem so interested and immediately turned his eyes on wheat.

"Then we should do the ceremony immediately?"

"Oh.

Julia moves forward.

There is a table in front of Yulia, on which wine and deer meat, grapes and olives ride.

Wine, olives and grapes are what I have obtained in exchange for Sueki.

"I'll go now."

Yulia said so and started dancing slowly.

After all it is beautiful.

My heart grows naturally.

I want to see it forever. But the dance ends soon.

"How about?"

"Yeah. It was beautiful."

Julia smiled a little shyly when I complimented me so obediently.

"So I'm this"

"Oh, I'll send you."

I send Yulia to the lake.

"That's right. I'll give Yulia a present when I get the bread. Thank you."

"Fufu. I'm looking forward to it."

________________

Naturally, wheat cannot be eaten as it is.

It is necessary to thresh.

Remove wheat from ears and separate from rice hulls.

Doing all this by hand would be a lot of hard work.

So I will lend the wisdom of the ancestor.

"This is really easy!"

So Young talks to me while threshing the wheat with a thousand teeth.

I'm glad I can praise my own.

It's a human prick.

By the way, the original comb of 1000 teeth is originally made of bamboo or metal, but the bamboo is not native and I did not have blacksmithing technology, so it is wooden.

So very brittle. Please treat me carefully.

"Um ... the structure is simple, but it's a great idea to be more efficient ..."

Tetra is muttering while watching a thousand teeth.

"Isn't it amazing if this spread?"

Ron excites.

Well, work efficiency will increase.

But it's not just a good thing, because it's also about taking away the threshing, which is a widow's job.

If you spread it, you have to think about the widow's work together ...

Maybe I'm worried. After all it is a child's leader. When the time comes, this group will disband.

________________

Now we have to take the chaff.

Prior to the introduction of machines on earth, every area was threshing with millstones.

There are two types of mortar, one of which rubs a round stone against a stone plate.

The other is a method of stacking two disc-shaped stone plates and rotating one of them.

It seems that at least the area around this uses the former mortar.

Threshing can be done with this method, too. You have to sit back and do the same work for a long time, which can cause back pain.

I don't want to suffer from back pain this year.

So I made a disk mill.

It was very hard to make.

Because you rub the stones together and make them round and flat?

I do not know how many times the devil in my heart whispered that I should give up and do it in the conventional way.

But once this is completed, the work will be much easier. I believed so.

Bless you? It is unfortunate that the rubbing of stones was not so difficult thanks to.

There is no help for it in such a delicate place.

By the way, I had to sit back and make it, which caused back pain.

Looks like a stupid.

"But this is so much fun!"

"Bo, let me do it!"

Rosword and Gram are dry.

… I wish they would be happy.

It was worth my backache.

"From now on, you can take turns working with everyone. What makes you alone?"

"Because I want to be surprised."

I was amazed by Tetra.

"I was surprised enough to handle a thousand teeth."

"Huh, there's still another surprise!"

"That weird guy?"

"I'm sorry for the weird guy. It's Karin."

I touch Karino in the corner.

It's a whole body.

Naturally, I'm nothing of a farming enthusiast, so I only know what it looks like in a history textbook.

However, I know that it is a mechanism that separates by wind power.

If you know the principle, you can do something like trial and error.

It's not perfect, but you can improve it little by little.

After all, when I was in elementary school, I had the ability to get ◎ (can do well) as a drawing artist.

Naturally this much.

"Okay. First of all, I'll put the wheat mixed with the husk here.

I move Karamin to try to explain it to everyone.

Baki

......

......

It looks like it still needs to be improved.

In the end, everyone worked hard and separated.
