Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

"did it……"

In front of my eyes, or under my feet (Ashimoto), is an island about 200 meters in diameter, about 500 meters away from the coast.

The whole island is rock, and the shape of the island is a natural thing called "almost circular but slightly distorted", but the upper surface is unnaturally flat. And this is also an unnaturally accurate, so beautiful columnar towering tower in the middle of the island ... Koyama?

No, it's too hard to call it a natural thing. I'll have to call it a "tower" anymore. A luxurious mansion built with its back attached to the tower. Three warehouses built near it.

The circumference of the island is a steep cliff all around. The height from the sea surface is at most about 10 meters ...

Climbing to the top would be quite difficult, except for the stairs from the dock and ramps for the wagons.

"... Okay, perfect mother!"

Yeah, if you're 500 meters offshore, you won't be attacked by land.

It is unlikely that armed soldiers can swim 500 meters, and in this world, the effective range of the New Continental musket is around 45 meters. If a rifling was engraved inside the barrel and a real bullet of a vertebrae was developed, something like the "mini-gun" on earth was developed, with an effective range of less than 300 meters. … The maximum range is around 900 meters, but that number has no meaning.

If it is a cannon, it reaches from the shore, but when the enemy carries the cannon to this place from the land side, it means that this country is already ruined, so at that time you have to escape now right. Either on my transfer or on an escape boat that I plan to prepare on the ocean side of the island.

Later, cut out the rock to create a secret bunker and hide a small cruiser there for the time being. A guy who can blast nonstop from here to the neighboring country.

: You can bring that much. It's a one-of-a-kind artifact that doesn't leak technology.

Early archeologists, suffer from seeing the Ouparts found at the ruins of Bunker! Puphahahahaha!

Ameno Ukifune or Katsufune? Or maybe Vimana ...

No, if the future is such that archeological sites will be excavated, has it been developed as a power ship?

Okay, I need to get a used ship and teach Beatrice how to steer.

In order to get a license for a small ship on the earth, you have to remember various things such as the Maritime Collision Prevention Law, but in this world it has nothing to do. It's easy if you just learn how to drive. Maintenance can be carried to the earth.

However, despite the appearance, this mansion is made of earth. It is a building that cuts rocks and fits the base completely, and because it was built on the sea side, it seems that measures against salt damage will be taken, but it is assumed that electricity, gas, water, etc. are running So you can't use the bath, kitchen, or washroom. I have to put the water tank a little higher and connect it to the water pipe, or manage the bath.

Even though Beatrice lives, you can't forgive her without a bath!

… What about water?

It can be anything while I'm there, but basically it's okay if I get out of this world or need to hide, and with a low probability, I'll lose my metastatic ability That is the basic policy of leveraging my Yamano territory. So, of course, things about this island will be based on that policy.

Do you carry it by boat?

Aside from peacetime, when war comes, it is too vulnerable to rely on external transport of water.

Make fresh water from seawater with a water generator?

The multistage flash method requires oil and gas, while the reverse osmosis method requires electric power to operate a high-pressure pump. About 3 kWh to make 1 ton of water.

And the water made from seawater needs to be sterilized, and because it is unpleasant in ingredients, it is necessary to adjust the taste by adding minerals ...

Of course, it is not an adventure story of the Meiji era, and there is no way that there is a river of underground water flowing under the roof of a mansion built on the top of a steep rocky mountain. No matter how much you dig, you will have to pierce at least the buried rock mass and dig deeper to get fresh water.

… Probably, even if you dig, seawater will come in when you go through the rock mass.

Is it okay?

Install some earth-made water tanks and let them be replenished by boat.

It will also be a job creation and a source of income for our fishing village.

Of course, the payment is Earl Bozes. With shipbuilding and the naval economy, you probably won't be in trouble.

Not many people live here, and Beatrice is not always here.

Then Beatrice feels lonely, and Countess Bozes and Iris can't forgive that in the first place.

Naturally, a day trip. I wonder if I go once every few days. If the weather is bad or the sea is rough, of course, pass. This is a symbolic and excuse to say, "Island spanning the Counts of Bozes and the Countess of Yamano", and it is not necessary to do all the work here. We will have a working room for Beatrice in our territory.

Then slowly take Beatrice into the Viscount Yamano family. Fuhaha!

Everything is bad for me to do it alone. Then, throw it to Count Bozes.

There are many things to think about whether you are going back and forth by boat, whether you will be connecting to the land with a floating pier, or a floating bridge, but for the time being, that's fine.

Okay, I wonder if I couldn't help today!

Transition!

The next day, take Randy to a rock-cutting trace. Next to it is a trace of rock cut.

The purpose is, of course, to investigate whether there is any promising ore because there are deep holes. Randy is an expert in metalworking, so of course he can identify some minerals.

... I mean, there is no other human resource than Randy.

That's why I asked you to check ...

As a result, there is no outstanding ore.

Well, if you can dug properly and find a valuable vein in one shot, the mining technician will not have a hard time.

That's why the trick is activated!

Yes, there may be resources whose value is not yet known at the technical level here, so call on the experts on that path!

…… and my blog in Japan, “Help everyone! I contacted regulars and King Yama of "The Viscount Management" and asked me to come. When I contacted me, I took two replies.

This time, because it is a specific job request, I paid the part-time job properly. Indeed, it would be too apologetic to just squash the holidays and work the whole day to eat lunch and dinner.

The rewards seemed to be more pleasing to gold coins, but they were too dangerous. Mainly, in the sense that my identity as a blogger is outweighed by agents from other countries.

And the survey results ...

Achievements, none.

It's really bad!

Well, it can't be helped. Let's switch! !

I paid Yamao for part-time work in Japanese yen. 25,000 yen.

That is the price. …… If this gold coin is converted into Japanese yen via the dollar, it will be about that much. Well, the image alone is a "reward for one gold coin" ...

After that, a channel was drawn from the river, and the site where the rock was cut out was turned into a large pond. The waterway from the pond to the river was also drawn so that the water returned to the river via the pond, so that the water in the pond would not rot.

Among them, aquatic plants grow and fish settle in, and it may be a good fishing place.

Of course, the main purpose is irrigation (irrigation) water for agricultural land. Even if the river is running low, this much stock will keep it to some extent. With that in mind, he cut a rock mass near the river.

... I'm thinking about it, me too!

Then, sand was transferred from a certain place to the site where the bedrock was cut out, 50 meters long and 2 meters deep. About 1 meter deep.

If you put the sand all the way up, you have to scatter it around with wind or something.

… Yes, it ’s a huge sandbox

Children, dogs and cats seem to be happy.

Do not use dogs and cats as toilets! !

At first, I decided to make it a pool, but I cut it out in this way, but in the case of a pool, it is too much troublesome to manage water quality and water temperature, prevent accidents, etc. Here's how to maintain water quality where there is no chlorine.

I don't want to be a source of illness, and if I die from a child in an accident, I can't help it.

So I canceled the pool plan.

The alternative was the huge sandbox.

As expected, no one dies in a sandpit one meter deep.

In a pool, humans drown even at a depth of 30 cm, not just a meter.

Yoshi, this is a paragraph. Would you like to check a little bit on the new continent?

It's about time to move ...
