Magicraft Meister Part 1

891 - - 26-11 Factory

"Where is the ...... factory, though?"

The answer to the question about where bicycles and rickshaws were made was quite ordinary. Or rather, the information that Jin wanted to know was hardly included in the answer.

So, he repeated the question.

"Where is this factory located?"

"......"

Mii hesitates to answer.

"Can't you talk about it?"

Jin asks, and she shakes her head.

"......It's not moving anymore."

"What?"

"From what I've heard, it stopped working about 300 years ago and never worked again."

Jin pondered. 300 years, that means .......

(I wonder if it's the Aether Stampede, after all.)

"Is it simply that the materials have run out?"

Erza also expressed her opinion. Jin nodded inwardly.

"So now, the culture of this country is slowly beginning to decline. But we had a visit from Mr. John Dinney the other day, and he helped us a lot.

"So that's what you mean. ......"

"Brother Jin, what do you mean?"

Erza asks Jin with a question mark on her face.

"I mean, this is what it means. In Mitsuho's country, they have not been able to produce such advanced tools and magic tools on their own.

Mii sighs at Jin's point.

"...... Yes, I'm ashamed to admit it."

I don't know who built that factory, but I guess it went differently than they intended.

Probably because the <> didn't work, Jin thought.

Although he had not told anyone, one of the reasons for his visit to Mitsuho was that he wanted to know how the <> had managed to establish an advanced cultural civilization.

I know that educational automata for leaders like <> are part of the answer. But I wanted to know about the other part: ...... measures for the general public.

But, as I should say, it didn't work out so well here in Mitsuho.

It seems that people have come to simply accept the tools that are given to them from somewhere as a matter of course.

(I wonder if we can call it a depravity, though.)

After all, the step was a little too high.

Jin regretted that he had given up on it, seeing it as an unclimbable cliff instead of a climbable step.

Jin wanted to learn how to pass on his knowledge and skills in today's world from someone who seems to be a pioneer in this field. .......

"I won't make it worse, but could you tell me where this factory is located?"

"Well, um, ......."

Mii hesitated for a moment when asked again, but then remembered that Jin was a ,

"North of Miyako here ...... is northeast.

"Well, can we try to go there?"

"Yes, grandfather ......, if you notify the sheik."

"Okay, then ......."

Erza stopped Jin as he started to walk away.

"Brother Jin, calm down. It's almost eleven o'clock. If you want to go, go after lunch.

Jin regained his composure.

"That's true..."

"Yes.

So Jin and Erza spent the rest of the hour or so touring the museum as planned.

"This is the loom. And that is the threader."

"Well, I guess it's not a mechanical one. ...... No, I can't judge that from this. ......"

There was no sewing machine.

In principle, a loom is not structurally difficult because it only passes the weft threads between the warp threads.

Jin has heard and knows that the invention called the <> (shuttle) has greatly improved efficiency .......

However, when it comes to the sewing machine, Jin cannot understand how the upper thread gets entangled with the lower thread, along with its precise processing.

And it seems that the same was true for Mags, whose mitsuho does not seem to have a sewing machine either.

As an aside, I wonder if Jin would respond by making a sewing golem.

Other items seen in the morning were cooking utensils.

"...... a vegetable knife, right? ......"

The kitchen knives that Jin saw when he came here were all of the form of a gyuto or santoku knife, but among the items on display here were what appeared to be a rapeseed knife and a willow-blade knife.

"It was quite interesting to see ......."

As promised, Jin explained to Saki what he had found and what he had noticed while eating lunch at the cafeteria adjacent to the library.
