Takarakuji de 40-oku Atattandakedo Isekai ni Ijuu Suru

Twenty-five stories: Who are you?

In the morning four days after I sowed the herbs.

At the garden tip of the village chief's mansion, Ichiba, dressed in the same rugged top and bottom as what the villagers were wearing, was arm-wrapped and conceived looking at a pot planted with peppermint and lemongrass.

Because their growth has turned out very differently than originally anticipated.

By the way, the clothes worn well were stitched up by Barletta yesterday, perfect length and comfortable.

"Um, I thought we'd have more rapid growth. I wonder if the nature of fertilizers is changing"

The two herbs in front of Ichigo are somewhat larger than they were when they were brought, but if they grow to this extent, they are no different from growing in Japan.

Lemongrass, which has not been fertilized, has grown very normally with the condition as it has been bought at the home center, and peppermint mixed with fertilizer in the bowl has grown similarly.

In addition, the seeds planted four days ago with Barletta germinate only in large quantities in basil, while the other seeds are only germinated in two or three luccolas.

Both the seed planted on the ground and the seed planted in the pot have the same germination condition, and the number of days it took to germinate is as per the information written on the paper I received at the store where I bought the seed.

As Ichiyoshi roared watching the herbs, Valletta turned up from the entrance to the mansion.

When Barletta finds Ichigo roaring at the garden tip looking at herbs, she herself comes out into the garden and lines up next to Ichigo.

"Unlike village crops, herbs don't get bigger all at once...... Ah, Luccola sprouts!

I found a little bud that hadn't come out until yesterday, and Barletta touched the little leaves with her fingertips gladly as she crouched on the spot.

I couldn't see the rapid growth that Ichigo had initially anticipated, but it seems to be growing normally for now, so it's going to be a look at things for a while.

The place where the seed was planted has the same number of wooden planks as its type and the name of the herb planted is written in Katakana.

Baretta wrote it in oily magic, but she was able to write it quite well.

"Hmm, I thought it would grow a little faster. Well, it looks like you're normally growing up, so do you think it's a good idea"

"It would be enough if you grew up normal. Let's raise them."

Barletta smiled once again gently stroking Luccola's leaves before rising.

"Breakfast is ready, let's go back to eat. I'll finally be assembling the water wheel when I eat it, so I have to work hard!

With that said, Ichiya naturally loosened her cheeks to Barletta, who was working her way into a mood by making a grip with both hands in front of her chest.

It is unfortunate that the result of the rapid growth of herbs was not achieved, but the vegetables planted in the village fields continue to grow with tremendous momentum.

The potatoes have grown even more than once since then, and even though the leafy vegetables have only been sown for two weeks, they are growing enough to start lining up at the villagers' table in a few days.

Until about four weeks ago, the villagers' expressions were so vibrant that I very much don't think it was a village on the verge of devastation due to famine, that everyone is happy to sperm out their daily field work and waterwheel making.

Given that, it seems trivial that the herbs didn't grow rapidly, and the purpose of bringing herbal seedlings into this world in the first place was not to produce herbs in large quantities, as it was originally intended to examine changes in the efficacy and properties of fertilizers and plants brought in from Japan.

The intention was that the herbs might be bred, but from the point of view of the investigation, the purpose is well achieved.

"Right. I hope it turns around properly...... looking forward to it but anxious."

"If you don't turn around, it's a reflection. I'll brew you a hibiscus tea full of honey to comfort you."

"Mmm, that's fascinating too...... although Mr. Barletta will just want a drink!

"Eh heh."

I feel that we have become more and more friendly before because of things like since we came back from Isteria, herbal observation, field grazing, waterwheel parts making and post-dinner study groups, and Ichiyoshi and Barletta constantly acting together from morning to evening.

Barletta has now barely shown the same reluctant attitude she used to have towards a good cause, and whatever it is, she has had more natural smiles all at once in the last few days.

We have solved all the water shortages and food shortages in the village that we have been anxious and unable to help until now, and we are able to learn that the hope since then is very different from what we have in this world.

With no more seeds of anxiety, his own hopes have been fulfilled, and this life now, for Barletta, may be enriched without this.

"Everyone in the village made the parts very carefully, and I'm sure they'll turn around. Plus, if it's what Mr. Kazra designed, it's absolutely fine!

This is the first time for Ichigo to design a water wheel, etc., so no matter how much they say it's ok, the anxiety will remain, but it won't start even if I'm just saying it here.

In the meantime, I assembled and installed the water wheel, and I decided to be optimistic that if I didn't have to turn around successfully, I would be able to do something about it if I rebuilt some parts.

"Right, Mr. Barletta reviewed the blueprints with me, and I'm sure you'll be fine"

"Ugh, when they say that, I'm anxious..."

"It's okay, it's okay."

This is how well we hemmed Barletta's responsibilities, while Ichigo went back to the mansion to have breakfast.

After breakfast, Ichirano and Baretta, along with ten villagers who had joined in making the water wheel, had come to the riverside where the rear car was loaded with water wheel No. 2 parts and installed the water wheel previously brought from Japan.

The waterwheel installed on the riverside waterway, reinforced by wooden planks, continues to spin, sending water to the waterway leading to the village of Gricea.

As the midsummer sun poured down intensely, I saw the waterwheel turning vigorously with a glitter up, and someone from the villagers

"Beautiful."

and said honest thoughts.

"So do you want to assemble the water wheel? Nice to meet you all."

When Ichiyoshi spoke to the villagers looking at the water truck carrying the water, the villagers quickly unloaded the parts from the rear car and began to assemble the parts by being seated next to the rear car.

When we assembled the Japanese water wheel the other day, it was just a task to assemble the parts that we were already able to do while looking at the instructions, but the parts of the water wheel that we assembled this time were handmade by Ichigo and the villagers themselves.

Because the villagers understood which parts would play what role through part making, the slippage of assembly work looked superior.

"Well, shall I and Mr. Barletta be ready to replace the water wheel first"

"Yes, you're going to stop the water in the waterway"

Barletta removed a thick wooden plank about ten centimeters thick from the rear car, and when she went upstream of the waterway bordering the river, she stuck a wooden plank in the waterway to block the river and the waterway.

The water wheel that was turning well also slowly stops its movement as the water that was pushing its wings disappears.

While Barletta stopped the water in the waterway, Ichirano took two towels embroidered with "Shino Seiko LLC" from the rear car, making sure the water in the waterway was gone before turning the waterwheel with one hand and emptying all the water that was in the crate for the water discharge.

"The sun is strong, and if you wipe it gently, it's going to dry soon"

Barletta, who stopped the water in the waterway and came back, received one towel from Ichigo and said so, gently stroking the waterwheel that was dripping water.

"Right. But after a little while, turn the water wheel and keep the sun adjusted. It would be hard if I slipped my hand when removing it because of the moisture."

When removing the water wheel that is now installed, even though a few people work together to remove it, it is difficult to slip your hand because it is wet in river water and can also be underneath the water wheel.

I mean, let's keep the water wheel dry for that, but it seemed like if we left it to the kan-lit sun, we could dry it coarsely in half an hour.

The continuous sunshine that has tormented the scattered villages so far is going to be a reliable ally this time around.

As the two of us used towels to wipe the water in such a way as to pinch the water wheel for a while, they noticed the letter of the towel in their hand and stopped the working hand and asked nicely as they spread the towel.

"Mr. Kazura, is it the store in Kazura's country or something that says' Yuzuna is here 'on this cloth?

"Oh, that's the name of the company my father runs."

When Yiliang answers that while wiping the water wheel, Barletta moves her gaze from a towel in her hand to Yiliang with a hazy look on her face.

"... Mr. Kazra's father?

"Yeah, that's right. Even when it comes to the company, it's a small town factory that my father and mother operate in."

When he stopped working on Barletta's question, he glanced at Barletta's towel "Shino" and the embroidered part with his finger.

"This' Shino 'is my last name, right? Speaking of which, I wonder if you've only named the name below since you got here...... what's wrong?

Ichiyoshi leans down to Barletta, who stares a little at herself.

"No... Um, Mr. Kazra, you..."

Barletta, speaking halfway through, looked back at the villagers who were hacking and assembling parts beside the rear car, exhaling howlingly and small.

"Hmm? What did I say?

inquire. At best Barletta laughed a little like she was in trouble,

"Eh, the rest of this story goes on again at night...... more than that, I just realized that even though this waterwheel shaft is made of metal, the new waterwheel shaft has the tree sticking out even the part that hits the bearings, are you okay?

and has changed the subject.

As a matter of good, I'm curious about what Barletta's about to say, but I don't even have to insist on eating it down.

Switching his head to a new topic, he opened his mouth to answer Barletta's question while resuming the task of wiping the water wheel again.

"Oh, I think that's fine. I have fewer parts than the water wheel I used as a sample, and the amount of water being discharged has been reduced, so the burden on the shaft shouldn't be that great. If you want to keep using it and wear it, you can go to Isteria again and buy copper or bronze."

I don't think so, but if the axle of Waterwheel 2 wears out, it is necessary to dismantle it once and recreate the axle.

It would be a hassle at that time, but I would go to Isteria again to buy copper or bronze and manufacture contact parts for the bearings and shafts in the village.

Either way, it shouldn't mean that the axis will be out of use so soon, so if it's moving when Isaac, a servant of Narson's, arrives, there's no problem.

You just have to create a few extra shafts if you have to, and roll them by the side of this water wheel as a replacement.

"Bronze...... do you melt it in the village and process it for shafts?

"I'd prefer that if I could, but it might be quicker to ask a blacksmith to make it in Isteria...... ok, I guess I'd be fine if I wiped this much"

Coarsely wiped away the noticeable water wetness, Ichigo looked up at the water wheel and exhaled.

After this, once the water wheel unit 2 has been assembled, the water wheel installed now must be removed and the columns used for the bearings must also be dug up.

It's quite a heavy labor, but it seems like we can do it without difficulty if we are villagers with a good brought in food that strengthens their health.

"Will we join the assembly of the water wheel?"

"Yes... but it looks like we're almost done."

When I looked at the villagers, Barletta said, the water wheel was almost up already.

After all, it is only a matter of assembling the parts we made ourselves, and it is an early one.

"Well, it's true. Then, is it a short pause until the water wheel dries up?"

"Right."

No matter how much the water wheel is assembled, it takes time for the water wheel to dry.

I decided to take a short break, especially since I didn't have to install it in a hurry.

He then rested for about thirty minutes drinking the river water with the villagers who had finished assembling the water wheel, and was to carry out the removal of the water wheel.

Ichirano tried to join the removal of the water truck, but to the villagers.

"If this is the case, we will do it, so please rest, Master Kazra"

It has been said, so watch the work with a few villagers, and Barletta, who cannot be added to the removal work because of the size of the water wheel.

Thanks to the Cancún lighting sun, the water wheel was well dried and the water wheel could be safely removed from the bearing without anyone slipping their hands out.

The excavation of the bearings fixed to the ground is also done immediately thanks to the powerful villagers, and the new bearings made of all wood are put in place and securely secured.

Similar to the sample water wheel, the bearings are constantly hung with water drawn up by the water wheel, so the cooling of the heat generated by friction is adequate.

"Now we'll install a new water wheel."

When the villagers put in a good rejection, they lifted the water wheel, which had been assembled and put to sleep on the ground, with a shout.

"Finally the water wheel we built turns...... me, I'm going to take off the board that's partitioning the waterway"

"Please...... I wonder if I'll turn around properly"

Elsewhere such an uneasy one, the installation of Waterwheel 2 was soon completed, and later only the river water was drawn to the waterway.

Valletta confirms that the water wheel has been installed, giving everyone

"I'll take the board off."

declared, removing the wooden planks separating the river from the waterway.

The newly installed water wheel Unit 2 is pushed with wings by the running river water and slowly begins to spin.

"Oh, I turned around. The rotation speed is uneven..."

Elsewhere, Yiliang checks the waterwheel with a serious look from the side as the villagers clap at it and slap each other on the shoulder, rejoicing at the waterwheel that began to circle.

On such a good basis, Barletta came back with the planks she was filling in the waterway.

"What do you say, Mr. Kazra?

"Hmm... yeah, this would be fine"

When Baretta heard a good reply, she smiled in a hospitable manner and looked at the waterway from the spinning water wheel to the village of Gricea.

The water volume is less than half that of the water wheels installed so far, but Unit 2 is firmly sending the river's water to the village.

"Well, we've been able to replace the water truck safely, and would you like to dismantle the water truck you removed and return to the village?"

"Dear Kazura, shouldn't we carry it like this without dismantling it?

A good word is suggested by one of the villagers who was beside the water truck that was removed.

"It would be better if we could carry it as it is, but it's heavy, and it'll take quite a while to get to the village, right?

This water wheel weighs nearly 400 kg in the combined state, even though each and every part does not weigh much.

If it has a handlebar, you can take turns and manage to carry it, but when it comes to transporting a water wheel without a handlebar to the village, there seems to be something quite painful.

"It's nothing. It's okay, I think we can take turns carrying it. See?"

"Oh, don't be able to carry it like this normally"

When the villagers said so, the six of them made the water wheel lying down vertically, splitting it with two in front, two on the side and two behind them, and started walking as they came towards the village.

The two laterals are essentially lifting the water wheel because it is about supporting and balancing from the side.

The rest of the villagers also walk around following the water wagon being transported.

"Yeah... I'm sure you're lifting nearly 100kg per person, why are you all looking fine..."

"Mr. Kazra, let's go too"

Ichiyoshi, who was just stuck to the expansion, turned to Barletta, who came calling out and scratched an unpleasant sweat on her back as she looked at Barletta's adorable face.

"Oh, uh, what's wrong?

Barletta stared at me and turned red and lit up. When Ichigo rushed to dispel the delusion of "Barletta gripping the apple with one hand," he followed the villagers to the village.

That night.

Dinner was over, the two of us lined up in front of the firelit enclosure, as usual, and Ichigo was studying with Barletta.

The content of today's study is human body functionality, and he learns about how the body works and functions while looking at a reference book.

I'm a good amateur about this area, so it's like being with Barletta and studying, but obviously Barletta swallows faster, so it was lightly dented.

Currently, the content of the study taught to Valletta changes daily and takes a little way to learn from day to day.

I teach various types of studies with one hand, from precisely "sitting" things like mathematics and physics, to things like how to brew good tea and how to process preserved foods, but Barletta is intrigued by everything and packs from one end to her own head what she teaches like a properly dried sponge.

I also take my notes well, but the letters I'm writing are in Japanese and I already seem to have mastered Japanese.

As I watched the reference book for two and listened to Barletta read out the contents: 'Blood vessels are rivers, red blood cells are ships', I remembered that Barletta was about to say something at once during the day when Yi Liang was desperately taking notes, waiting for Barletta to finish reading the items in the reference book and teasing her.

"Mr. Barletta, it's daytime..."

"Mr. Kazra, what is plasma protein... oh, yes, what is it?

Barletta, who was trying to hear the meaning of a word that she had never seen, responds well by switching heads that were focused on her studies.

"I remember Mr. Barletta was about to say something to me during the day, and it was pretty much what he was trying to say..."

"Ah..."

On that question, Barletta looked perplexed for a moment, but turned to her best with a serious look as to whether she had decided to do something within herself.

I wonder what they will say about Barletta's serious appearance.

"Mr. Kazra, you are... you are human, aren't you?
