Oh! I've got it all done! It's perfect!

The one who came here in high spirits this morning is Lancelot, the commander of the Knights here. He's bringing a report on the hygiene matters that were discussed yesterday. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do with your time.

I've heard that Masaru can make weapons! You can make me a weapon too!

This commander is becoming more and more light-hearted and carefree every day... and it's only the third day. ....

I'll make you something that'll fit the bill. In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the web site. As with the other day, please discuss and implement these in the council room. Yes, have a good day. I'm sorry.

He looked at me with a face like he was about to cry, but the fact that the old man looked at me with a face like he was about to cry didn't affect me in the slightest. In fact, the creepiness makes me want to double my workload.

"Come on, work, work! Let's get it over with so I can work out!

As if sensing something, Lancelot runs out of the room. I hope you're working hard. This morning, as I walked around the city, I found that as per the plan, as many people as possible with free hands had been used to remove the filth from the city. From today, the digging will be done by those who have the power. I read the report at random and headed for the forge again today.

"Well, let's get to work!

What are we going to make today?

"What are you going to make today?" "Mr. Wade is asking me not to play with you. Wade's eyes were pleading with me not to play. Seeing how many weapons I made and played with yesterday, he might have thought I was a person who only wanted to do what he liked, just like the Commander.

Today I'm going to make a pump to make drawing water from the well easier, and tools to make digging holes easier. After all, it is better to live and work easily and safely. If I have time, I would also like to improve the wheelbarrow. I would like to improve the wheelbarrow if I have time.

It's great that you're coming up with so many ideas. But are you sure you want to sell your technology so cheaply?

As a civilian, he knows that nothing is more expensive than free.

He knew that nothing is more expensive than free. And if possible, I would like to receive a certain amount of materials at the time of their release, so I have to work for that. I have to work for it.

If the materials do not interfere with your livelihood, I can arrange for some. I'll be happy to pay you for materials that won't interfere with your livelihood. You can't put a price on technology.

"Specifically, I'd be happy with some of the ore that's overstocked here. No problem.

"No problem. For the time being, it's more of a bad inventory than an overstock. Just take a big chunk of it, it'll add up quickly anyway. Take it.

After concluding the negotiations, Wade left the forge to do his own work, promising to work hard and not play today.

He left the forge to do his work. "I think it's 60% copper, 10% tin, 30% zinc and a little lead to make bronze. Okay, let's try it! ............... Hooray! It's done! Here's the [appraisal] ....

[Bronze ingot]

Bronze ingot. An inexpensive alloy that is easy to handle and resistant to rust; inferior to iron in hardness and strength, but superior in workability.

I'm not sure what to make of this. I'll make about ten of them and take half of them. We'll need them to secure water sources for the beastmen's habitat. .... I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. It's a margin of error. .... I'm not sure.

I told myself and started making parts for the pump. I managed to finish my goal of 10 pieces and put 5 pieces in the item box... I also got the wood for the internal piston and started processing it. Just before noon, when I'm finally able to catch my breath, Wade and the dwarves come in.

What the hell is this? What's this for?

What's this for?" "Well, this is a Cogsworth, I think.

"It's very fine, but how did you get this... it wasn't there in the morning!

This one's Gaston, right? Or was it the other way around? I can't tell them apart because of their deep beards and similar physiques.

"This is a tool called a pump to make fetching water easier. It makes it easy for small children and women to draw large quantities of water from a well. I'll explain how it works later, and you two will learn how this pump works. I'm sorry.

There's no water with this thing... can't it be used right away?

Yes, it is. You can use it when you assemble it, but... oh, you'll have to make a pipe or something to pump it up from the well. .... Let's do the demonstration in the evening. I just remembered the missing parts. We'll help you.

Well, we'll help you!

You two wait until everything's cleaned up first. You two have to finish cleaning up first.

Wade somehow calmed them down, and after the four of them ate lunch, they started to make shovels out of steel. The shovels in this world are made of wood and only the tip is covered with metal. They are heavy and require a lot of strength, making them fragile and dangerous to work with. Digging in the hard ground is much better than digging by hand, but it is still too much work for the workers. That's why we want to get the product to the people who are digging the holes now. Why didn't I shovel in the morning? I thought that if I could do it in the morning, I could wash my hands easily enough!

"Hooray! Carbon adjustment, and forming as is! It's done! Let's see how many I can make...

Although he didn't care about it, he was, as his title said, "an unparalleled lover of production". About three hours later, Masaru saw 37 shovels of various sizes piled up in front of him. By the time he noticed, it was too late and he quietly left 15 shovels and dressed 17 shovels. Of course, even 15 shovels were too many, but his somewhat working good intentions discouraged him from appropriating more. The rest of the day was spent quietly collecting scrap metal and other materials, making recycled pipes and galvanizing them to make them waterproof.

I'll set up the pump tomorrow morning when it's more popular and show off its convenience... I think I'll deliver the shovel and rest today. I've been riding high and I'm low on magic power. I'll be back.

Masaru, who often worked alone, had already begun to talk to himself.
