Takarakuji de 40-oku Atattandakedo Isekai ni Ijuu Suru

About two hours after breakfast.

Ichiran was at the entrance to the barn zone, where he had reconfirmed the work before 300 servants.

Next to Ichigo is Liese, who listens with a serious look to Ichigo with his eyes on the servants.

Beside Reese was refrained by a squire with a large, clothed umbrella, blocking the light of the sun pouring down on her.

The umbrella is a square flat part of the umbrella, and the squire with the umbrella supports the umbrella pattern with a fixture attached to his waist.

Eira is not here today because she said she will be working on the move, so it is another maid who is holding back beside Liese.

Eira had suddenly been ordered to live in the mansion by Zirconia this morning, so by now she would be very busy working on the move.

Marie is accompanied by a good person and is waiting with other squire and escort soldiers a short distance away.

Reese is not dressed as usual, but wears a light armor of bronze reinforced skin over a thin, long-sleeved jacket, with a long sword inserted at her waist.

It is probably because of her physical problems that she is equipped with composite armor that looks relatively light, rather than complete bronze metal armor like zirconia.

I wondered why she was wearing armor when it wasn't military training, but it's normal for them to wear armor when doing these kinds of work outside the mansion.

In addition to the reason that it is easy to move, the armored appearance is more intimidating than the personal clothing, so that even women who are often seen as sweet can behave with majesty.

Isaac and Havel also appear in front of a carriage parked nearby.

Together with their obedient squire, the two carried fertilizer packed cloth bags out of the wagon even while Ichiyoshi was talking, loading several cloth bags into the sixty cars parked around the wagon.

Isaac seems to be coming to work more strained than usual because of Reese's appearance.

Ichigo saw Isaac like that,

"(I knew when my pretty daughter was watching, she'd stick it out)"

And, with a slightly misguided feeling, I was intimate with Isaac.

Because the material itself is very good, not only does Reese look like the usual dress, but she looks like whatever she's wearing, such as a rough outfit for early morning training and armor like she looks like right now.

Leese, dressed in armor and tightening her expression, looked so beautiful that the Rin atmosphere added to its pity that she accidentally fell in love with it.

A beautiful girl like this would stick around to show you what's good for most guys.

"From the progress of yesterday's work, I think we can finish spreading the contents of all the cloth bags on the field in half a month. Any questions?

When Ichigo said so after re-describing the working procedure, the servants being gathered after a few moments were bothered a little.

I didn't say anything strange, but the atmosphere of the servants has become a little noisy.

I wondered what you were so bothered about, and Reese and Isaac were also pointing a strange gaze at the servants.

One young man raised his hand after putting aside a few moments as such.

"When it's time for lunch, can I go home once?

"No, the meal is prepared here. We'll hang up the order when it's time, so get together and take a meal break."

"Will the cost of the meal be deducted from the salary?

"I will pay for all the meals at the Istel family. Rest assured that there is nothing like deducting it from your salary for any other work related costs. We're going to have enough meals, but if it doesn't seem enough, we can increase it, so say it then."

When Ichigo answered the question, the servants raised a voice of joy.

I have consulted with Zirconia during yesterday about the meal I will provide them with.

It will make you work long hours in flames, so if you don't feed it well, you will also lose your working efficiency.

As a result, we prepare more meals per person than we typically do.

Since there will be a lot of sweat, I have been instructed to add a little more salt.

"I can't stop working all the time, so pinch a little break every half hour. Instructions for the break will be given by Isaac, who will oversee the work. Servants with water buckets will patrol the group, so make sure you drink water even if you're not thirsty when they come. Any other questions?

He hears a good explanation and has the same look that convinced both the men and the other servants who have asked him questions.

When I nodded that there were no new questions after waiting a few seconds, I multiplied the order to start work.

"Eh, it's this place that installed the water wheel yesterday, so do we make it around here next? I wonder if I can manage to install about five or six by the end of the day..."

Leaving the servants who started the work to Isaac and Habel, Ichigo walks to the barn zone towards the river looking at the map he brought with him.

He watched the servants doing the fertilizer spraying, either to fit into the sun umbrella or next door as Leese leaned in perfectly.

"You do a lot of work. If you sprinkle what's in that bag onto the field, will the crop come back to life?

"I can't have a crop that's already withered, but I think what's still alive will come back to life. What you're sprinkling is fertilizer, it's like a medicine to revitalize the soil in the field."

"Cheer up the soil......?

When YiLiang explained to Lize, who looked at the work intriguingly, Lize looked back at YiLiang and inquired in wonder.

It is the exact same reaction as the first time we explained fertilizer to the Vallettas in the village of Grisea.

After all, the very concept of spreading fertilizers does not seem to exist in agriculture in this world.

I guess the idea that crops grow thanks to God's grace, blessings, etc., is common sense in this world.

"That's right. To do this, you mix something called rotten soil, which was originally made to look like soil with fallen leaves rotting in the woods, with soil in the fields. As things stand, that's not going to keep up, so I'm sprinkling the fields with the special fertilizer I've prepared. He's powerful."

"(Hmm, so Master Kazura prepared a pile of cloth bags containing fertilizer... is that it?

Answering himself that way, Reese was hammering but leaning on her inner neck.

"(Master Kazra left Isteria eight days ago for sure, and he came back two days ago, so it's at least three days each way... because you can never do it three days each way to the city of Clayrats... eh, where have you been?)"

Yes, Leese has no idea where he was going while Ichigo was away from Isteria.

When fertilizer is spread over such a vast barn zone, the amount should be considerable.

You'll need time to prepare that much fertilizer, and even if you had plans in advance to have your stuff ready, you'd need a place to store it.

While Leese thought that it might have been supposed to be handing over fertilizers somewhere in advance, the interest was geared towards where the best country of origin was over fertilizers.

"(Rich and of great nobility from a country at a distance where you can receive your luggage in three days each way. Since the Barbell line disappears at the time you're handing over your stuff with your mother, all that remains is Clayratz... but I've never heard of a rich aristocrat that far in Clayratz...)"

"Oh, yeah, I got a little on the subject yesterday when I was talking to Mr. Zirconia"

As Leese turned her thoughts as she walked, Ichiyoshi raised her face from the map in her hand.

"I heard that normally it would soon be time to sow, but I forgot to ask what kind of crop I would sow. Does Mr. Reese know what he's going to do?

"What, is it a seed?

"Yeah, I don't know much about agriculture in the area around here, and if you did, you could tell me."

Suddenly told such a story, Reese recalled what she had previously learned in a lecture from a civilian.

I wasn't very interested in agriculture, so I listened to it seriously for once, but what I remember is vague.

Especially when it comes to the types and methods of rituals of abundance prayer, it is quite dangerous to remember, but if it is about the time and type of sowing, it was somehow remembered.

"Uh... As usual, temperatures will be dropping soon, so I'll be wearing winter imo and beans. The harvest is just before it snows."

"Is it imo and beans? Is there anything else?

"Uh... a couple of round green onions and leafy vegetables... and then, when it's autumn mouth, we'll start seeding bread and latta wheat"

I never dreamed she would be questioned about agriculture, so Reese regretted it all the more now that she should have taken the lecture more seriously as she hastily dug out her memories.

If they ask me any more questions, I'm honestly not sure I can answer them all correctly.

"I see... you know what those beans are used for? Something to process and use."

"There are several types of beans, but I have certainly heard that winter turtles are dried and kept for preservation or oil"

"Is it oil... how do you take it?

"Ya, it sure seemed like a way to put it in a crate, push it and squeeze it...... oh, you know, sorry. I should have taken a lecture from a civilian before to study, but I have forgotten the contents and don't know how to learn more..."

"Oh, don't worry about it. I mean, if that's all you know, it's a big deal.

Ichiyoshi smiles and thanks Reese for saying sorry.

I don't originally think I can listen to you in so much detail because I don't normally think Liese is involved in work such as politics or agriculture.

Leese seemed busy with the interview yesterday, and I guess she's studying between those jobs.

His status as an aristocratic maid seems quite arduous as well.

"(Do you squeeze away things like soybean oil in Japan? Did you say" pressed "?"

I don't know any familiar methods, but I do if I know enough to be able to squeeze oil out of soybeans and vegetable species.

A closer examination of the pressing methods in this world would also make it possible to improve efficiency with regard to the amount of extraction and working time.

"(But does it take a long time to compress? If you're going to squeeze it, you're going to be able to do it quite efficiently using a centrifuge...)"

A centrifuge is a machine used when squeezing objects or separating components in a liquid using a centrifugal force obtained by rotation.

Ichirano had seen his father Maiji use a centrifuge and cut the oil of the metal material immersed in oil, so he figured it could also be used to squeeze oil from the beans.

In fact, since oil extraction using a centrifuge is also carried out in factories producing soybean oil, olive oil, etc., a good idea is not a mistake.

When Ichigo was conceived with a serious look as he walked, he noticed that Fuji's neighbor Liese was eager to snap a good look with an anxious face.

You must be concerned that you were unable to answer the oil extraction method in detail.

Reese doesn't seem to like agriculture or food processing techniques, so it would be better to change the subject.

"Speaking of which, I was all over the city when I first met you before, does Mr. Reese usually walk around the city a lot?

"Yes, I walk around the city a lot to change my mood."

Reese looked a little relieved that the topic had changed.

"I always get disoriented when I'm in the mansion... and when I go out to the city, I can talk to a lot of people, so it's a lot of fun. You can observe the city in person, so you can learn about civic life."

"Oh, Mr. Reese is keen to study, isn't he? If you go everywhere from time to time, are you familiar with city shops and civic food, too?

"I often go out to the city centre, so I'm pretty close to the shoppers around there. I'm familiar with delicious food stores because I also dine out with Eira. If you don't mind, why don't we go out together next time? I'll show you everything."

"Oh, that's good. If it's convenient."

When Ichiyoshi, who received it as a common social dictionary, replied that way, Reese was really happy to shine his expression.

"Wow, I'm glad! I will continue to help you so that you can make the time to go out!

"What? Oh, yes. Best regards,"

Unexpectedly he received an aggressive statement, and Ichigo nodded while slightly amused.

I can't figure out how far I'm serious, but I seem to be willing to help with my job.

Nevertheless, as things stand, there are too many things we need to do as soon as possible, not very much, but we can't afford to go out or anything.

If we're really going out, it's going to be after a paragraph about the barn zone.

Ichiyoshi told Reese that he was happy to do it,

"(You're a very social person. Popular amongst the citizens. I'm convinced.)"

and I was in the mood for a glimpse of her popular secrets.
