Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

"Ha... So, Mr. Simon, what do I dig like? If you're just digging, it's not easy..."

It won't be as simple as having an easy basement with it.

We need columns to handle the walls and support the ground floor, and we need to think about foundations and foundations.

"Hmm. I don't know how much you guys can do with your magic... can you fix the walls exactly?

Yuki nods effortlessly at Simon's words, who put his hand on his chin and twisted his neck, thinking a little.

"No problem ~. Right, Nao"

"... Well, it depends on the hardness, but if it's about a normal block"

Making it glass like a bath kettle is magically harsh, but if you just normally stiffen and solidify the soil around here like stone, you don't need that much magic.

Thinking about the dirt walls before the dungeon, it's an easy job.

"Well, that depends on the depth too... Mr. Simon, how deep do you want it to be?

"Right. At first, I thought about the first basement floor, but if I could do it, I could do it upstairs, no, on the third floor."

Quite unscrupulous.

"No, the third floor, Mr. Simon, that's a mess, isn't it? How many meters are you?

"What, if you could dig about a meter or two, that would be enough"

"One or two meters..."

So the third floor, isn't the ceiling high?

Even considering the thickness of the floor and ceiling, it would exceed three or five meters, and it is quite high.

Maybe it's because it's a brewery, not a normal room, but when you dig that deep, our magic is just as harsh.

"In the first place, Mr. Simon. If I dig that deep, I won't even be able to get out?

"You've decided to put together a scaffold, haven't you? How do you think Nong and the others will work?

Mr. Simon told me to be a little shy, and me and Yuki nodded face-to-face.

"Oh, right. If you dig holes and cement walls, it's not over, is it?

"Can you do that? And then... what about groundwater or something?

"There's no problem around here. Luckily, there was an old village around. I know the depth of the water. Look, the well behind your house, that one's deep, too, right?

"Uh, sure...?

In our case, we can magically get water out, so I don't really have a chance to peek into the well, but I do think it was pretty deep.

"You should leave that matter to the professionals. I hope you guys dig a hole."

"Is it? Okay."

"Well. It's time for the other guys to bring tools and wood. I'll wait in front of the gate."

Mr. Simon urged me to wait in front of the gate for a while.

Here comes the collection (...) group (...) that pulled the luggage.

Larger than expected, though I was going to build a little cabin to the point.

Ask me, they're going to make the ground part two stories too, and the construction is going to be pretty big... what if this fails to brew?

Definitely a big deficit, huh?

Right, well, we didn't ask for it, so it's okay, right?

"Parents! We've got it all!

It was the young man from Mr. Simon's workshop who stopped the luggage car in front of the gate and came in and out.

Many other people are young, but this is because the first thing you do is a lot of hard work, right?

"Ooh. Bring it in! - That's good, right?

"Yeah, I don't mind. But don't hit the wall or anything flashy, okay? Security equipment, we have it, could it be a little dangerous?

"Ooh. You guys heard!?"

"Yes! I'll be careful!

Mr. Simon and the youngsters nod a little while pointing to Yuki, who replied pointing to the exterior wall of the house.

But in fact, if you try to get over the wall or destroy it, the security device activates, so it's not a little dangerous.

But the security around here doesn't seem any worse than I thought, and the device has never been active before.

"I'll be fine because I won't die ~.... I guess"

It was Yuki laughing nicely to reassure him, but it is counterproductive.

The fact is, they walk through the gate in a slight freak, pulling their luggage, because they walk as close to the wall as possible.

"Well, then, please."

"Ok...... but what shall we do? Overall, recklessly?

"If magic keeps you, do it. But you can't, can you?

"Uh, I can't, can I? Nao."

"At least not in a day."

"I guess. In the meantime, scrape it along the wall and stiffen it up. Inside, Nong et al dig and carry out the soil. I was planning on doing that in the first place."

I also feel a little less stylish about digging this many holes with manpower, but this world without heavy machinery, if that's normal, I guess.

In the first place, this guy has more strength than anyone in our world, and maybe he's still better than I imagined.

"Let's do it."

Dig a groove up to one or two meters wide and about three meters long at once first.

Ask them to scaffold there and twitch at its depth to widen the length of the groove to the left and right.

Once you have dug right, next to the left, make scaffolding and drill holes, work efficiently alternating, occasional breaks.

Meanwhile, in the middle part, the other workers are using the shovel to dig up the dirt and carry it out in Moko... yeah, it looks pretty tough.

By the way, it's a full force job, so Toya is also calling to join us.

"Mr. Simon, how long does this take?

Simply think of it as 5 x 10 x 12 meters, 600 cubic meters.

Even assuming a specific gravity of one 600 000 km.

Even if one thinks of it as 30 kilometers, it has to go back and forth into the hole 20,000 times.

Besides, the more you dig, the more distance you travel......

"Right... at this pace, will it take a few days? Maybe we should get more people."

Looking at the people working on it, Mr. Simon puts his neck...

No, a few days... I wondered how terrible it would be.

Doubling the number of people isn't going to end very well, is it?

"Are you okay? The... the funds or something?

The truth is, 'With that kind of black, wouldn't employees run away?' I just want to say, 'If you run away from work, I cloud my words in this world where my life is about half over.

"You don't have to worry about it. Thanks to you, Noon made a lot of money. That's a reduction."

Last year, Mingki, which we brought in, is flowing through Mr. Simon to other workshops in this town.

Mr. Simon never seemed to be outrageous, but on top of the luxury timber he was originally, he seemed to have a lot of money and a lot of profits.

If you ask me, it also seems to make sense that many of the young people who work now are young people in other workshops to restore the profits that Mr. Simon has sucked up to those workshops.

They also make the wages they pay higher than the market, and their hard work seems to have an impact on that.

"Phew, but I just want to be a little more efficient."

Exhaling, Toya, who was in charge of the shovel, came to where me and Mr. Simon were talking. That outfit, it looks great on you.

It works twice as well. That's the beast man.

"Thanks to that shovel, it's a lot more efficient, isn't it? You're the one who made it, right?

"Well. But... well, that's not a good idea.... Do you want to make a cat car?

"Ah? What, what's that?

"It's a tool for transporting dirt and sand efficiently..."

A cat car is a wheeled handheld car that is commonly seen at construction sites.

Basically more dirt and sand can be transported by themselves than by two people, and it is less tiring because there is no need to lift it.

As a means of transporting dirt and sand, it is a fairly effective tool.

If I were to raise my faults, would I be able to use it if I didn't make a slope?

"Yikes! Let Tommy make it! I was hoping for some business ideas!

"Oh, come on!

Quick to say, Toya ran away as she stabbed the shovel into the ground around it.

I'm pretty sure he went to Tommy's, but I just ordered, and I don't think he's gonna make it to this construction, okay?

"Is that it? Toya, what's wrong?

Yuki, just up from under the hole, looked at Toya's back running away and tilted her little neck.

"He wants Tommy to build a cat car."

"Uh, it might be useful if it did happen. But even if I go now..."

"Yeah, right? Excuse me, Mr. Simon."

"I don't know about the cat car, but it doesn't matter. I told you it would be made by Nong et al. There's no problem with him falling out."

"... and what about us?

"I don't think you guys have an alternative! Magic is convenient.... you guys, if you have trouble with your work, I'll hire you."

"Huh!? We're adventurers? Mr. Simon."

"Isn't that a job you can go on until hours? Especially Yuki, you can't marry and have kids."

"Ah, haha..."

To Mr. Simon's words, Yuki smiles bitterly and sees me chillier.

Ugh, hmm......

If it's modern Japan, it's instant: 'Sexual harassment!' It is the words of Mr Simon, who is likely to be said, 'but in this world it can be an extremely honest statement.

If the adventurer is just a little special, and generally about Yuki's age, he is normally married and has a family.

And if you get married, you're naturally asked to have children to leave the house behind.

Even in Japan in the past, they were separated when they said that they could not have children, such as the stone girl Yuzuma, but it is such an era.

Well, if you don't have kids as a real problem, if you're a farmer, if you're a farmer, if you're a craftsman, you can't keep a workshop, and if you think about old age, that's inevitable, too.

Speaking of which, Yasue got married.

Did you have a kid or something?

I kind of feel strange that my classmates might have kids or something.

"Hmm? What. Is Yuki good friends with Nao? I was wondering if Nao was stuck with Hulka."

"Yep. I'm with Halka."

"Me and Natsuki, you're going to take care of me collectively, aren't you?
