Tadashi Tanaka (41) Birth of a Kingdom – ‘Medieval Europe Is Too Harsh!’

It was finally completed this winter.

It is a rocket stove.

The main unit is made of total iron because I asked the blacksmith to do so, and sand is used for insulation, but it is structurally a positive (false) rocket stove.

The size is about two vertically loaded pale cans.

In the chimney area by the heavens, Wudong was also installed so that it could be cooked in a pan.

This neighborhood references things I made myself when I was Tanaka.

However, a problem arose quickly.

This total iron rocket stove will be heavy.

When I made it before, the body was made of stainless steel, and the insulation was made of Nantcalite like a light stone.

But when it comes to sand on iron, it weighs quite a bit.

Me and Rollo finally carried it to the Mansion Square with the thought of saying hi.

This mess is heavy. Here it is.

At this point, the advantages of saying "it's easier to carry if you turn it down" disappeared.

I can't easily carry this weight in this size.

"That was heavy...... is this going to be the enclosure (a lot)?

"Oh, that's heavy because it's a chunk of iron and sand...... let's give it a try"

I rammed fine firewood into the inlet and ignited it with the fire I borrowed from the kitchen.

Although smoke comes out only when it begins to burn, because of its great thermal efficiency, smoke hardly comes out immediately.

The burning sound of the rocket stove-specific "goooo" is reliable.

When I boiled the water to try it, it seemed to boil fine.

It's a corner, so I asked Lolo to look for food by telling him to try to bake something, and he found 'The Root of White Beats'.

I put white beets roots and stones in an iron pan and turned them into 'stone roasted white beets'.

Looks like it burned fine, too.

I think the trick of stone burning is to collect a lot of small stones, without bothering.

"I burned it... you want some?

"Yes, I miss white beets."

Me and Rollo chew the roasted white beets silently.

I'm sure Lolo remembers Lorna, too.

The other day, a letter from Rona said, "I'm getting married next spring".

Next year, she will also be 16 years old… at the right age for marriage.

They're free folk merchants who lost their wives early, and Lorna's going in later.

It's not much of a business scale, but it looks like a serious merchant entering and leaving the mansion of Lioncool in Wangdu.

Rona, who can read, write and calculate, is also in charge of interacting with merchants at the Mansion, where she was seen?

The same goes for Lolo, but if you can read and write calculations in a time of low literacy, it's no wonder the merchants keep an eye on you.

Besides, Rona is cute, and there's no way she's going to sell it.

… Nevertheless, Rona is married………

This is a story that was signed up by the Lioncool family in a kick-ass way from the other side, not something I would say.

I bite the roasted white beets, feeling indescribable.

This bitterness is not just because of the white beets.

By the way, the roots of white beets are better to cook than to boil.

"Don't feel sweeter if you bake it."

"Yes... but if you make it into juice, you'll get more songs."

Hmm, it's more than flavor. I don't have a choice.

"Pretty sweet, like sugar if you don't have a little more crunch..."

In a moment, a lightning bolt ran behind my brain.

... this is a sugar dice... a vegetable...

I opened my eyes and stared at the white beets.

I don't know how to make it, but sugar should be able to be refined if it's a pickled vegetable.

I have heard that in times when there was certainly no post-war stuff, sugar was sometimes made at home.

Then you can make enough for me.

Study the method and cultivate more sugary varieties.

…… you can, if you make sugar, you can get as much wealth as you want, if you have gold……

I drank sauce and spit.

It is honey when it comes to sweeteners in the Amoros region. Even that is a luxury that rarely enters the mouth of the common people.

I've only spoken of sugar at Robert's wedding since I came to the kingdom of Amoros.

Sugar is a super-premium product that is imported only marginally from abroad.

It is not a metaphor, but more valuable than gold, and it is an item that the common people have no connection with for the rest of their lives.

"Lolo, it's you... no, the... why don't you go buy Rona's wedding celebration"

"Huh!? Don't do that!

Lolo raised his voice in surprise.

It was dangerous.

I was about to say, "Ask Millet's parents about the price of sugar."

Since me and Lolo have been setting fire to the rocket stove since the other day, people are rarely coming over.

I can't even look at them when they talk about it in a broad way and smell the sugar secrets.

I would torture anyone who knows how to make sugar, but I would draw information.

That's all it should produce.

We need to overlap prudence.

"Your sister is... a slave, and you're going to marry her..."

"What? You can't expect me to interfere with Lorna's happiness. I wonder if it's linen cloth antimatter?

Lolo says, "It's too expensive!," he shook his head desperately.

Certainly giving away luxury goods weirdly could be annoying.

Flax cloth is a luxury fabric.

"For me, Rona is a dear friend. I want to do something, but I can't talk to Smina..."

It's not that I have any feelings of guilt or guilt, but there is just too little delicacy to talk to Smina.

When I was worried, Lolo scratched my head like it smelled like "I'll talk to Millet."

This sister and brother have a very similar illuminated face.

At a later date, we made our own "washboard" and "Double Six" plates.

There is no color, but it is the result of adopting Millet's idea of giving away memorabilia.

Then, the accompanying letter stated that it would be the last newsletter.

There are many obstacles to communicating with a wife.

I miss you a little, but I think this is a good idea.

Given my history with Smina, if Rona had been on my side, I would have definitely pushed her down.

... and Rona probably accepted it too...

If that happens, Rona will be in the shade for the rest of her life.

She would have concealed an unwanted child and had an unnamed parent and child.

That's good to know.

... missed the conversation. Let's go back to the rocket stove.

Something went wrong with the rocket stove that we used continuously while we were talking to the public.

Firewood inlets and chimneys held heat and iron burned to red.

When I brought the dry twig closer, that alone ignited it… it seems like it could be about 600 degrees.

Indoors in the Amoros region have as many flammable objects as laying dead grass on the floor.

When that happens, I fear a fire.

I didn't care because I used it outdoors when I was in Tanaka, but I want to use it indoors this time.

Maybe it needs a little improvement.

And the rocket stove is wonderfully warm, but the burning time is short.

Since this is a structural problem, there is no choice.

I just have to add fuel to the mame.

At some point everyone gathered to say something like "awesome" or "warmer than a bonfire" to my mouth.

It seems generally well received.

However, the results of the presentation to Rudolph were inconceivable.

"Barian, this is certainly an excellent one. But you can't put it in the hall."

Is it important that Rudolph "surround the furnace" with his squire?

"I can understand that communication is important, but you just have to cover it elsewhere"

This is what I would think.

But this kingdom of Amoros, though I had felt thin, is an extreme customarism, precedentism.

There is no soil for accepting new things as "convenient".

In fact, there is no rational thought in the Middle Ages to honestly accept and use something convenient because it is convenient.

This medieval tradition and customism is so stubborn that it is called 'Yesterday Forever'.

In other words, the idea of "yesterday was a good day, let's do the same thing today" is stronger than adapting to changing circumstances and circumstances.

In the end, this rocket stove was accepted as a convenient (kamado) with strong firepower and good fuel consumption, followed by less smoke.

This is also a great advance and change, but from Rudolph's point of view, he said, "Because of this, my son made it."

The ministers also said, "In the Count's mansion, the clams are made of iron. You're rich," he seems to recognize.

I'm disappointed, to be honest.

Iron is produced from the mining city of Faire in the territory of Count Lioncool, but iron is nevertheless expensive.

Iron rocket stoves didn't even spread because of cost.

This was a shock to me.

Because I thought that if I made something convenient, it would spread on its own.

... That said, laundry boards were not popular either...

Once again I remember my life in the King's capital and sighed.

Here are the problems with prototype rocket stoves:

- Made of iron and expensive

- Short combustion time

There is a fire hazard during continuous use

-It's far from my previous lifestyle and hard to accept.

... It's not easy to clear this many problems.

In the end, I guess it's a shortcut for me to become great and command rather than to proceed with the spread and improvement of the rocket stove.

"Use it, you guys, because I want to use it"

It may take this much forcefulness to change your life in Amoros.

You'll be resented at first, but if it turns out, there's no problem.

If you use it, it will surely convey the goodness.

It's martial arts to be great.

Let's rebuild ourselves tomorrow to be active in the war.

I'm going to be great.

And there have been studies of removing sugar from vegetables (tensai) … this needs to be done in a way that does not go unnoticed.

Let's start by looking for a place.
