I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle - Chapter 523

"That's why I'm trying to build a city of adventurers in the West. I don't know, old man.

"What are you talking about, kid? What city of adventurers?

"So, you told the old man about the Western exploration that meant preparing for the future that might come, right? Maybe the day will come when knights and nobles who want territory will want territory in the West."

"Oh, I did hear that, too. But how does that make you talk about adventurers?

I see. Let me explain it again in order from the beginning. "

Talk to your part-time brother in Vulcan Line, and then exchange information with the old man.

What I told my old man was about how to run the West End.

I'm thinking of turning the west into a city of adventurers.

As it stands, I discovered land bordering the western sea.

There, the Fontana kingdom was blessed with sea delicacies that were out of hand.

Therefore, if you pick seafood in the west and bring it to us for sale, it will all be worth like a jewel.

We are already putting in Valkyries on the ground to secure control of the land.

And in this western land, as I told my part-time brother, it meant preparing for the future.

Perhaps the kingdom of Fontana did something like unite the kingdom under control of all the nobles.

In order to create a stable country, we need to put an end to the conflict.

In order to do this, it may be necessary to disarm as well as Fontana, the united driving force.

When that happened, what could have happened was the unemployed soldiers.

In a peaceful world without contention, we will not need the number of troops we have been looking for.

At the very least, there will be personnel to keep the peace, but the army is basically a golden worm organization.

Maintenance costs are so high that we have to move in the direction of reducing them.

But that's where the problem arises.

Because there are also those who have been fed by their presence in the army.

Some are demanding compensation as a territory, but many will naturally be reluctant to be disarmed and lose their workplace.

It is unlikely that such people will be dissatisfied with the country's policies and cause new unrest.

Therefore, it meant to be prepared.

However, the western part of the country is also quite difficult to handle.

After all, there are many monsters, and they are strong.

With the help of Valkyrie, it is difficult to keep spreading even though we have secured a dominant territory called territory.

More importantly, we needed a system to retrieve what we got in the west and convert it into money.

So my idea was to create an adventurer.

Adventurers are the names of brave people who work in the West.

The job description looks like this for the time being.

Initially, use the Transfer Magic Faction installed on the Vulcan Line to fly west.

Then register as an adventurer at the base over there.

Anyone who registers as an adventurer takes an adventure in the jungle or towards the sea.

And the purpose of the adventure is to bring back information or goods.

Any information is fine.

For example, you may have discovered a new species of plant in the jungle, or you may have reported that it was something you could eat.

Or you could defeat a monster and have it bought at its base registry.

They also collect and buy fish and other things from the sea.

The purchase cost is set to a slightly higher value.

If it's monster materials that aren't in the Kingdom of Fontana, you can definitely sell them at a high price just by taking them back to the Forwarding Magic Faction.

It would not be a loss to keep the purchase price high.

Initially, the adventurer's work may be dominated by the walls built by Valkyrie.

However, the area of activity gradually goes further and further, and the adventure begins in a true sense.

You will be searching with no idea what will sell at a high price.

"Wait a minute, kid. It would be nice to create a system with the adventurer, but do people come together? If it's dangerous, nobody's gonna do it.

"That's not true, old man. Basically, there are still many poor people in this world. In Balka, it may be decreasing, but in other lands, some are thrown out of their homes to reduce food support. They are now captured by the Fontana army, but we will replace them with this adventurer system."

"... I see. Sure enough, some of them are still volunteering for the Fontana army, which was supposed to be conscripted. I mean, they're looking for a job. Does it spark the hope of an adventurer as a job to make money there?"

"That's what it is. Whatever the monsters may be, it's important to make them think they can target thousands of dollars. If you think you might get enough money to take home a new species of monster without having to work for years, some of you will do it even in danger."

"Really... Let's get closer to the Labyrinth City Explorers' Union. But that must have been a big one. Not only the monster materials, but also the weak ones who dug the magic stones turned into gold, so they could continue to work as Explorers."

"That's right. So, as the first simple task of the adventurer, we need to prepare a replacement job for picking up magic stones."

"Do you have any guesses?

Oh, it's a tree sap recovery.

"Sap?"

"That's right. I named the forest that stretched west as the jungle. The tree growing in the jungle was damaged to the epidermis and a tree sap of an unusual nature was collected. I think that beginner adventurers can also try to collect it."

"... is the sap that can be taken from the tree worth it?

"Of course, old man. Speaking of the best harvest in this Western expedition, I think I can say it was the discovery of this sap. Even so, I can't say for sure because I've just started researching this with Gran."

Adventurers are dangerous jobs, but they are also attractive jobs that have the potential to turn life around.

By doing so, we may be able to send young people who are sick in Tsuura across the country to dangerous lands full of monsters to work on their own wishes.

But no human wants to die.

Perhaps many who have crossed west with such sweet words will not get a lot of money in reality.

Therefore, you should also prepare job descriptions for such ordinary people.

It's a standing offer in the Adventurers Guild.

That said, it's not like killing a goblin in a story.

What I was going to prepare was sap collection.

When I tried to retrieve the sky dragon body in the jungle, I cut down a tree and made a road.

At that time, I noticed that sap came out of the cut tree.

And when I looked at the tree, I felt like I had somehow seen it.

Plants like cedar may be wrapped around, but the tree wrapped around the cedar is probably a rubber tree.

Even so, I've only seen it once in my previous life, and I don't really know if I can make rubber from the sap of the tree.

I don't know, so I'm just going to ask Gran to make some rubber.

If that's the case, I'd appreciate it.

If we get the rubber, there will be more new things we can do.

Rubber that can be applied to anything.

I'm thinking of making the job of collecting sap to make it a professional safety net for adventurers.

And all the items collected by the Adventurer are bought at the registration office by Barca, who has a transfer magic team, and then brought into the city of the magic train called Barcaine and sold.

No matter how much you pay the Adventurer, it should be much less than the amount Barca is selling.

In other words, Barca gives jobs to young people heading west with hope, buying and selling what they have earned with their lives.

At least it won't hurt.

Because there is no current competitor.

"That's why I'm trying to build a city of adventurers in the west, don't you think, old man?

"... maybe. Then the profit will go up. It's also an advantage that we can make money without having to fight monsters ourselves. I think it's worth a try."

So, with my old man's approval, I decided to create a city of adventurers in the west.

It wasn't unfortunate that the Alliance of Adventurers promised to reincarnate into another world, but apparently I could make it myself, and an unexpected smile spilled.
