When I arrive at Chief Harvard home, he already returns and wait for me, but ask nothing why I just return now.
”Ah, master Ikki, you finally come. Shall we just go to Lukas place now or you still have something to do?”
”No, chief. I have nothing to do. Let's go to mister Lukas house.
We both leave the house and heading toward Lukas workshop. When we arrive there, the sound of hammer tempering iron can be heard from outside. Chief Harvard must shout before Lukas open the door for us.
”Ah chief Harvard, sorry I'm busy tempering the iron so I don't know you were coming”
”It's okay Lukas, sorry to disturb your work, but I and master Ikki have something that I need you to make”
”Let's get inside and talk about that chief”
We enter Lukas workshop, sit on the available chair, and start talking about what we want to make
”Listen, Lukas, yesterday when I'm going to the beach, master Ikki made something that can make we rider the horse easier. A thing called saddle, and I hope you can make it in a mass product so our horses in the stable can be equipped with that saddle”
”Oh? What is that saddle look alike”
”Master Ikki here will describe that saddle look alike. Please enlighten us, master Ikki”
”Alright chief. Do you have something here to draw?”
”Wait, master Ikki, I get you something to draw”
Lukas stands up from his seat and takes something from the shelf in the workshop. He comes back with a wooden plank and chalk. Oh, this is can be used to draw a picture. So I start to make a saddle sketch on the plank using the chalk. And after finish drawing, I handed the plank to mister Lukas.
Mister Lukas received the plank and start examining the drawing. After finish studying the drawing Lukas ask what in his mind to me
”Master Ikki, To make this saddle we will need many leather right? And what I will do is shaping the leather to sitting place on the horseback, make a belt to tie this leather on the horse, and make footstep to ride the horse. Is that correct?”
”Yes, you right mister Lukas. Your job is to make the belt and the footstep for the saddle. The leather part can be done by mister Matius and Marius since they know better for leather treatment”
”Hahaha…That I can do. Chief, if you want to make this saddle you should ask Matius and Marius for leather, I'll do the ironwork on the saddle”
”Don't worry Lukas, after from here I will go there to make Matius and Marius prepare the leather. I just want to know whether you can make it or not”
”Hmph, only belt and footstep is not big thing chief. I can make it, don't worry, especially after I find that iron source in the hill I'm not worried about lack of source anymore”
”Ah, that's good to hear. Alright I don't want to waste your time, I'll go to see Matius and Marius after this”
