After completing the construction work, I will return to the shop today to do another job.

We have many allies, but we've never crossed it! So, as I was talking to Dalson and the others the other day, I decided to meet with the people who left on the way to the meeting, but before that....

"Now I'd like to start today's briefing."

Seven men from the Duke's family gathered in the office of our shop.

Before Mr. Dalson and the others arrive, I will exchange information on the progress of the day's work.

Nevertheless, we were all at the construction site this morning, and the four guards and I were always together, so only the maids were acting differently....

So I met Riviola, a great ape.

"May I speak on behalf of the maid?

"Please."

"After leaving the construction site in the morning, I went on to buy land, set up a security company, and prepare for hiring people at a commercial guild in the morning. There was no particular problem with these, but we have some documents that you would like to have signed with Ryuma, some owners, and Fuse and Jill, who will be in charge, so please check back later.

In addition, the requirements for the establishment of a security company and the recruitment of personnel will be disseminated from each Guild with branches in Gimr tomorrow morning. "

"Thank you very much. The process seems to be going well."

"Yes, and then I came back this afternoon, but in the meantime I got some contact.

First of all, Libble, the leader of the slum city, replied that people who had been waiting for a reply regarding the relocation of residents would continue to “accept”. Also, the owner of Children's House, who has not responded so far, has apologized for the delay, as well as a message from there saying, "Please do not hesitate."

"That's good!

I think the people in the slums were originally quite cooperative, but some of them weren't there right away.

Moving is a big problem, and if you lose your home in the unlikely event of a mistake, it's natural to worry. It's natural that you can't respond right away, and the owner of the child's house has no choice but to live with the unaccompanied child.

But the fact that these people have been cooperative

Looks like the morning magic worked.

"I guess. I can't think of anything else. Camille pointed it out after the demolition and immediately after it was rebuilt, I thought," Hello, "but did you do it deliberately and so flashy?

"I really wanted to do the experiment, but I was hoping it would appeal to work faster. I was almost convinced that rebuilding could be used for dismantling anyway… If we spend a lot of money in the future and start several projects at the same time, it will stand out anyway. I know it can be a hassle, but if I look like an amazing wizard, it could be a bit of a deterrent. Above all, there are people who can support us now."

"Next time, tell us more clearly before the experiment."

When I said with a smile that I was relying on, I was returned with a bitter smile.

"Next report. After a discussion between the administrators, we received word that the children's house, which was due to be demolished next if work proceeded properly, was to be relocated from this evening to the makeshift dwelling where the residents' children had been rebuilt this morning. So the rest of the building can be demolished at any time."

"Have you already emigrated? I don't know how many, but are there enough places?

"It's a former warehouse of the same type as this morning's building, and the floor rots and falls out due to aging. There are many dangerous and off-limits places in the house, such as parts of walls and ceilings peeling off and falling, so they lived together in small places from the beginning. So even if it is narrow, it seems that the gap wind is more painful at this time, and it is heaven without it! And they say it's the same joy as the kids."

"Nh, well, if there's nothing wrong with them... tomorrow, I'll give them a nuisance fee. And it would be helpful to dismantle the next building. The plan is to buy the land and dismantle the building. We were going to build the headquarters of the security company later."

It was Mr. Hughes who heard it and raised his voice.

"Oh? Does that mean we can get our base ready sooner than planned?

"That's how it will be. Dismantle and rebuild with sand magic."

I was planning to build a solid house for the kids, so I only made a rough shape with sand magic and made a few adjustments, but the security company building is more detailed, and I plan to put a waterproof coating with sticky liquid. Compared to temporary residences in the short term, such as other waterproof paints, it would be just right to see how much the presence or type of coating affects the condition of the building.

"Mr. Hughes, Mr. Jill, Mr. Zeph and Mr. Camille, please consult with the four of you to determine what equipment you need and what interiors you want."

"" "Copy." "

"And finally, this is a call from the Duke. The“ dispatch of a trusted physician ”Lyoma wanted, but would you let me accompany four young apprentices? I got a letter."

"Rapid increase? Can five people come for me instead of undoing it?

"It doesn't seem like it's just for Lyoma. Everything was suggested by their five mentors, Mr. Arafural... and Mr. Lyoma knows Mr. Arafural, right?

I know. An elf doctor who lives and works in the Duke's house.

"A little while back when I was at the Duke's. I have been consulted about the magic healing medicine that our employee Ox prescribes."

"Probably at that time. Mr. Arafura seemed to have greatly praised Mr. Lyoma's knowledge, and when he consulted, he made an earlier proposal.

He said, it's good to learn under yourself, but sometimes it's good to learn from others outside. In addition to following the treatment of the four young apprentices, it seems that it is time for them to start gaining experience in diagnosing and treating themselves, and they said that they have acquired that much knowledge. "

In other words, are the four of them in a position like residents?

Regardless of what you can learn at my place, I understand your desire to gain experience.

"It's in case someone gets hurt at the security company, and there's no reason to refuse. You're welcome."

Well, I'll let you know.

Thank you very much.

Now, this is the last report for today... ah,

"That's right. I'd like to talk to you about one last thing. Can I keep a little goblin in the northern mine where I live?

When they heard that, the seven of them looked at each other once, and now Renaise opened her mouth.

"If you contract as a subordinate magician, I don't think it's a problem. But what happened suddenly?

"It is also related to the previous study story... I would like to prepare a fairly organized study time and produce quite a result, and I think it is a courtesy to those who take the time to teach me.

And you've come, and I'm going to split the work in order to save time in the future, but I was looking at the workers that you collected in today's work, and I thought again. I knew it would be helpful if there were someone who could handle the simple work...

For example, daily slime feeding is not painful, but as the variety increases, it takes longer to make sure it's prepared and served. "

That said, it seems that everyone was immediately convinced.

"Oh no, how many Lyoma slimes are there right now? It's like I just remembered over a thousand...."

"No, I'm sure we could combine the same kind of slime.

"As Jill said, there are more than 100 species. There are more and more types of slides, and I am worried about more and more slides, so I need to count the number of fine slides again. Especially the fast-dividing stones and Weeds are growing every day."

I feel like I'm getting closer and closer to the zoo keeper when I prepare bait every day.

I've never worked as a breeder, so I imagine... is it far away?

"No matter how much you like it, the more it is, the harder it becomes to take care of it."

After everyone nodded at Renaissance's words, I returned to Goblin.

"As for Goblins, we are now finding footprints before leaving the house in the morning. Thanks for sniffing around about the potato fields I planted the other day, and I think I'll be back soon. In that case, I thought it was necessary to exterminate it for the sake of the fields and even if I was entrusted with the management of abandoned mines."

"I thought I'd use it as a workforce anyway. During construction work in the morning."

"That goblin was lucky, too. Better than being exterminated."

Jill and Hughes were right. I don't like it as much as slime and limousine birds, but I don't have a hobby to hurt for nothing. If you work for me, I will guarantee food, clothing, shelter, and rest, and I will cherish as much as the Clever Chicken provided with eggs.

"But in that case, you don't have to go out of your way to hire someone, do you?

Lillian suggested it to me.

"When I was researching slime, I occasionally had evolutionary abilities that I couldn't say to others, so in terms of information management... I didn't think Goblin would be able to tell people that even if I was known."

"That's true. Excuse me."

"No, I appreciate your input. Sometimes I'm wrong, and I think someday the day will come to hire people."

There was a sudden increase in the number of trips, and depending on the results of future experiments, there seems to be an explosive increase in the number of types.

"Anyway, I was wondering if we could hire Goblins as a workforce and a source of food for cleaners and scavengers."

Everyone exchanged words to check a little and finally came to the conclusion that “there are a few things to watch out for, but Lyoma (me) won't have a problem.”

"Well, next time I see you, I'll hunt down the goblins."

"Yes, Lyoma, I was just wondering."

"? What is it, Mr. Hughes?"

"No, you know Lyoma's talking about some kind of nobility involved in the situation in this city, right?

"Yes, just in case. I don't know who it is."

"Then I think it would be better to talk about it somewhat...?

"I'd like to know if you could tell me."

When I looked at the other six people with Mr. Hughes,

"Since Lyoma is cooperating rather than being irrelevant anymore, should there be a minimum disclosure of information?"

Despite his difficult face, Jill explained to me politely.

"I don't think it's necessary to remember because perhaps Lyoma won't be involved… but in this case, it turns out that five people have clashed:“ Baron Lancel "," Baron Ruffled ",“ Count Fergatton "," Count Danietan "and“ Count Sandrick ".

"Five?"

"Yes, but Baron Lancel has no reason to antagonize the Duke of Jamil or Lord Reinhardt, and the other four seem to be forced to cooperate."

According to the description, Baron Lancel was once a petty nobleman who ruled a small, unimpressive territory.

But when I was an ancestor, it seemed to me that there was a large gold vein sleeping in the mountains of the territory, and it was said that I quickly became wealthy... but that wasn't really the case.

The Baron Lancel family at the time the vein was discovered had no mining or defense know-how. As a result, I had to rely on the Vicomte Fergatton, who had a small mine nearby, and while I was happy, I was unable to operate the mine without the cooperation of four other houses.

"The Baron Lancel family looks wealthy with Kanayama on the outside, but actually distributes a lot of money and gifts to the other four houses every year behind them. It's called“ investor, "but it's also“ lower end, "and it works like the limbs of four other houses."

"... an enemy, but a poor man, Baron Lancel."

"Don't worry. Lord Reinhardt is moving to separate Baron Lancel from the other four.“ Cut off the funding ”necessary to execute various projects. They have gathered enough ingredients for that.

Baron Lancel was one of the bad guys in this case, but if he didn't want to do it, he said he could pay compensation. If mine operations cannot be carried out without the cooperation of others, the Duke will replace them. "

I see... the Duke will take away the position of the other four houses...

"Mr Reinhardt is not too shrewd to take Kanayama's rights."

"Of course. But Baron Lancel will be much better off than he is now."

Now that Dalson and the others are getting closer, unfortunately, this is the end of the story.

"Mr Reinhardt plays a game between social circles at the end of the year. Starting next year, enemies will lose their sources of funding and won't be able to do much. Until then, we stick together and win."

Last but not least, I'm very happy to see a clear goal for how long.
