Volume 2 - Chapter 9 – HOURAI ISLAND IS CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT (1/2)
Upon returning to Hourai Island, what awaited Jin was a mountain of reporting.
「The result of investigating the west side of the wasteland, granite, oya stone and other materials can be collected in large quantities. For mineral resources there is an abundance of iron ore, but not many of the other minerals were collected」
「Please store the high quality iron ore that is mined」
「A fence has been made on the east side of the grasslands, preparations for a farm has been made」
「Aah, as soon as it’s done, purchase cattle and sheep with money」
「The establishment of the port of Tatsumi Bay has finished, two fish tanks for experiment have arranged」
「Please continue to investigate the types of fishes」
「The orchard of the plateau is finished」
「After this I’ll make a refrigerator, so please leave the harvested fruit in there」
「A list for the forest area of the north side has been completed.」
「So there a rubber tree there, huh? That is good」
Etc, etc, etc. After all that, the reports continued until the next day, going to Beana’s place became a rest day.
「Of course I’ll be tired…」
The work the Golem Maids did was more than Jin expected.
「How is it going on your side Father?」
After finishing the report, Reiko came to ask.
「Aa. The prototype of the refrigerator is complete. Also the popcorn」
「Popcorn?」
「It’s food made from this corn」
Jin took out the bag of corn he had brought and showed it. The one to receive it was Topaz.
「I will see to immediately sowing this in the field」
「Aa, please do so」
Topaz gave instructions to her subordinate golems.
「Now then, let’s go ahead and make a refrigerator」
「I will help」
Reiko headed towards the workshop with Jin.
「Rather than putting in a 《Magic Stone》, using a 《Magic Crystal》 should be fine」
Taking out a water type 《Magic Crystal》, Jin immediately carved a 《Magic Formula》.
A 《Magic Crystal》 compared to a 《Magic Stone》 is dozens of times to hundreds of times longer lasting so he directly used carving for the 《Magic Formula》. The frequent need to replace 《Magic Stones》 is why 《Plates》 are used.
「It doesn’t produce ice but directly cools it」
It would be impossible for Beana, but Jin was able to easy configure the《Magic Formula》.
「Father, the case is complete」
Reiko had made the body of the refrigerator.
「Okay. The case just needs to be given an insulation barrier. With this it’s done」
「It is complete」
