Chapter 60 (2/2)
Also, various artisans and skilled craftsmen are making a piece of fancy shogi … …,
Eh, what, this three dimensional piece!
It’s almost like a chess piece! .
Every pieces are well defined…
Everyone’s doing a great job . It is likely to be sold higher to the n.o.bility .
Well, the last thing on the list was the feudal lord’s Army .
For the time being, I am the general commander .
The field commander is William-san .
Mitsuha 「How are you feeling, William-san . 」
William 「Yeah, well, it’s a bit of a crock . …」
Soldiers have a spear and a short sword .
After all, a long weapon reach is good for beginners . If it’s a single function, you can use it well even if the skill level is low . You can make a spear reverberates, or a precise thrust, with the proper movement of the waist .
Because defense is more priority than the attack, I do not think that anyone will rampage towards the enemy alone . But, not only spear, but also a short sword is given in case the stabbed spear does not come out or getting approached by a small and quick enemy .
Crossbows, are still… .
No, it’s a weapon that has been around for a long time on Earth, and the mechanism is simple, so I’m thinking about introducing it, but when I give the crossbow first, everyone has an interest in it more than a spear or a short sword, and I’m anxious that they won’t get into the basic training, and I’m afraid that it will be a mistake . Besides, it takes time to ma.s.s-produce … … .
The crossbow, after all those training, is now ready to become a part of a soldier .
The spears and short swords can be purchased from this country .
It’s tough to build dozens of incredible weapons, and you can’t be relieved unless those weapons are originally made by specialized craftsmen .
The money used to purchase these, came from the territory’s budget . When the former Lord left, I did not use all the money in the territory, but only the former Baron family’s personal a.s.sets . Because otherwise, the territory would go bankrupt, the kingdom seems to be watching closely .
Still, he seems to have made quite a lot of budget as an individual … .
Although the training of all the conscripts has not been carried out yet, some people seemed to be motivated and talented, so they were listed as a candidate for permanent soldier .
The 4 former mercenaries including Sven-san, are working hard as well . Especially the spear-master Zepp-san, he is working as an instructor .
I was not conspicuous in the related events, so far … until now . Well, I hope she will be able to show you a cousin . (まぁ、いいとこ見せて彼女ができるといいね。)
Oh, let’s plan an example for Sven-san and William-san .

Oh, let’s plan an example for Sven-san and William-san .
Yeah, it’s called a [firepower cheat in case of emergency] plan .
Specifically, 5 people will trained on how to shoot a sub-machine-guns in case of emergency . There are no maintenance or anything, just disengaging the safety lock, shooting, and changing the magazine . Certainly, only for [absolute emergency]…
In preparation for my absence, the weapons and ammunition that has been kept will only be used, when 3 of the 4 of my trusted aides . The Butler Anton, the General Staff Miriam, the Lord Commander William and Colette (no t.i.tle for the time being), gave their permission . (TN: dunno who is the 4th one) When I’m here, I’ll bring it from the room I rented at the wolf fang’s base .
Oh, I asked for a sub machine gun, because I did not want to choose a very powerful weapon that could possibly escape from my hand and also, guns and ammunition that are small and lightweight and easy to handle .
It’s called a sub machine gun, but it’s only a sub, so its power is considerably weaker than an actual machine gun . Because the bullet is the same as the (9mm) pistol .
Like a full-size rifle bullet or an a.s.sault rifle bullet in between of a full-size rifle bullet and a handgun bullet, there is a small projectile in a large sh.e.l.l case, and The Shape of the bullet is not made for long-range .
Anyway it sprays a lot of bullets at a short distance, and it is said that it is irrelevant to sniper or something . Even from the fact that there is something called [spray gun], it’s clear that it’s a weapon totally different from something like that .
Well then, for the time being, let’s go slowly with this aspect .
For the new things let’s hold it for now, carrying out what you are currently doing, or after your profit has declined and then you need a trump card for your next hand .
Because it’s troublesome to change things so suddenly .
……Somehow, I feel like it’s already too late .
Yeah, don’t mind it, don’t mind it!
… . Try not to think about unnecessary things .
Mainly for the peace of mind .
For the time being, a major incident will not happen, so let’s take it easy . (TN: A flag has been raised)
By the next social season, I would like to bring papermaking and corn to the next stage…
There was a time when I was thinking, such thing .
Although I chose a territory that is not in contact with the borders so as not to get caught up in a dispute, I suppose it came from behind … …
After the children returned to the Viscountess Yamano residence, the next stop was the fishing village
I understand that fishing and net fishing are going well, but we’re having some problems with salt production
In fact, villagers came to say that it was a quite difficult, but I believed that the [down-flow salt production method] was overwhelmingly labor-saving compared to the previous method

Since the situation was a little strange, I investigate various things, indeed, it was much harder than I thought . The effort to pump up the sea water many times was more difficult, but compared to the previous method, though, there was surely no need to stir up salt sand and wash it in the sea water . It’s not possible to use the tides like the beach method…
