"It's hard to handle money." Will there be people out there who will stop working? "
A social experiment using a new function-mounted bracelet conducted in several lands dotted with mountains such as the town of Biden.
Therefore, I felt that the observed phenomenon would be a good study.
Because, while there are people like Lambda who are beginning to make a profit from the loan, there are also people who are lazy to work until then.
Biden came to consult with the Barca church in the town.
This time, a new problem has arisen due to the fact that you can borrow money just by paying back a certain amount, and if you sell the magic stone to repay it, you can get En.
This is because a few people thought they could live without having to work in the town until now.
Towns are not large, and most people earn their living growing crops in fields.
Therefore, agriculture is the most important thing for the town.
Monstrous materials and kiwi fabrics available in settlements at the foot of the peak are only a few, not the main ones.
But farming is a tough job.
Leveling , Soil Improvement and other magic will free you from the heavy work of plowing soil, but it will still take time to plant seeds, take care of them, and harvest them.
And when planted, only a small number of things, such as hatukas, grow quickly, and basically it takes time to harvest.
In the meantime, just because there is a possibility that the harvest will not be possible due to weather and disasters, it can be said that it is a work that is really tiring both physically and mentally.
How about that?
The Church of Barca has begun buying the Magic Stone.
I used Magic Stone Generation magic to create magic stones, and Magic Power Infusion magic to add magic power to magic stones.
I bought up the magic stone that contained a lot of magic power for a fixed amount.
The quality and quantity of magic stones that can be created by the amount of magic power of an individual is determined to some extent, but on the contrary, it means that you can get a certain amount of money for the same amount of work every day.
It seems that some of the young people who lived such a life for a few months thought so.
I wondered if it was necessary to do tiring farm work.
Even if you do your best to grow crops, it can be heavy rain or something that makes everything go away in an instant.
If that happens, you will lose all income in the period up to that point.
In that case, it would be better to make money from magic stones from scratch.
Apparently, someone has come up with something to think about.
Of course, only a few of them.
Not everyone thinks so.
And people with money like Lambda aren't just hammers.
You will not be able to lend money anymore.
So the idea is completely broken.
But as for Biden, I'm sure she cares.
After all, I've been watching out for my surroundings as the face of that small town for a long time.
How much more farmland can I use magic? If fewer people work there, it's over.
So, if no one makes food anymore, they'll lose even what they eat.
Even if it's just this year's stupid act, the food shortage is going to see hell.
I suppose that's why I came to the Barca Church for advice when I saw such an unpleasant future.
I thought it was an interesting phenomenon.
This is because there was no significant flow in the small group of countries, or in the Orient countries.
Well, I haven't even used the function bracelet to lend En.
But even without it, the situation is different here and there.
After all, I was following Eye's instructions to carry out large-scale construction.
There was a limit to selling magic stones.
No matter how much magic you put in, the amount of magic power that ordinary people can put in is very small from humans with a lot of magic power.
Therefore, the purchase price of such magic stones was enough to add to my life if I were to live in Japan.
And since there is a construction job that would earn more than buying magic stones, I could live a better life working than not working.
Therefore, it was not like I was concerned that there were people who chose not to work.
By the way, with regard to food, I and Ai are improving the agricultural land that they bought during the recession, and they are also producing it, so it doesn't seem to have any impact at the moment.
“I see. Let's use the Mutual Aid Association to direct people to work.”
Shit, it doesn't matter what happens to a small town away from the Orient.
No, I can't keep seeing how it goes and collapse.
But it's also bad for Biden, who asked me for help.
Moreover, those who can use magic are followers of the Barca religion, and the Barca Church is also in a position to protect the followers of the Barca religion.
So I decided to hit him.
It meant using the Mutual Aid Society in the Barca Church.
Mutual aid clubs are organizations that help believers.
But helping each other is not free.
If there is anything you want help with, you pay the money to make a request, and if the person belonging to the mutual aid association completes the request, you will get a reward from the request fee.
This was done in New Barca and the Orient.
Let's use the Mutual Aid Club the same way in Biden town.
And at first, let's make a request from us, or even pay a portion of the reward.
Maybe we can send out a request for farming and buy out the crops.
What is more, it is the evaluation at the mutual aid club that is important.
This system is based on the evaluation made by Brother Ars for adventurers in the far west jungle.
Those who have worked for the world at mutual aid clubs are graded with symbols such as S to F to evaluate how well they have worked.
Shit, although this system has been introduced, it has not been very helpful so far.
For example, if you were to ask if there would be any change in the C rating, it would be enough to make you think that you are working hard from around you.
But how about limiting the lending function because of this high rating?
If the number of people who want to borrow money and live like this is going to increase, it can't be used in the Orient country.
It may be possible to do so, such as not being able to lend if the rating is not higher than a certain amount, or setting a maximum amount that can be borrowed at a high rating.
In the meantime, I've been hearing opinions from Biden and sharing my thoughts with Ai.
