I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle - Chapter 824

"What do you say, Garius? Isn't it pretty good?"

"Hmm, it's not bad. It's not that I don't, but it's not that I don't have anything to think about."

A few months have passed since Galius arrived in the village of Balka.

In the meantime, the orphans are getting along well.

Eat well, sleep well, and move your body. Everyone's fine.

I named them orphans and mercenaries from Vulcania, so everyone in Vulcan use Watch Practice .

Using the Watch Practice , Galius's lectures and demonstrations were held daily.

First of all, the first thing I did was make pottery.

Combine soil for pottery and crushed hardened bricks from nearby lands to make earthenware pots.

I've always made pot-shaped magic tools to cook rice, but it's time to finally improve their quality.

Observe Galius' handcrafted pottery after everyone "watches the practice."

Among the peculiar sights of being watched over by many, Garius's hands did not go mad and quickly created a stunning earthenware pot.

And those who learned it with the magic of Watch Practice will try it on their own.

It was going well.

But it didn't seem perfect.

At least Garius, a craftsman, is dissatisfied.

"If it's not bad, isn't it okay?"

"The finished product itself is not so bad.But these are not highly regarded pieces. "

"What do you mean? Galius made everything that looks good to me."

"Of course, this is not the work of the awkward.I was in a neighborhood called Neighborhood, but I'm not proud that my arm itself is falling.What I'm trying to say is that the mercenaries made it.All of them are pretty good. But I'm not out of the realm of selfish monkey imitation. "

"Well, that's because I imitated it in [watching lessons], right?"

"It's true, but it's not.Would you mind? Thank you very much, Alphonse.Craftsmen like me don't make pots without thinking.It is not until we have comprehensively considered all the elements, such as the mixing of the soil and the cured brick we have, the state of the soil and the temperature, humidity, water state, or kiln state of the day.Of course, it's not in that form. "

"Hmm, that's a craftsman's opinion."

"Isn't that right? As a result, the earthenware pots produced were born as imagined by the awkward before they started making.As the only unique work that only the awkward can make.But what about the products of the people who watched the movements of the handicapped in Watch Practice ?It is similar to the work made by the awkward.However, the quality of it has definitely fallen. "

"... I see. So you just remember the procedure perfectly and you're missing what you need in the process.Same as in swordsmanship.Even if the mold is made, is it weak in practice? "

"That's right. Watching Practice does have the effect of speeding up the acquisition of technology.That's very nice. However, in order to be authentic as a craftsman, it is necessary for each person to think more and make things. "

Apparently, Galius' opinion was that everyone was dissatisfied with the mass production of the shaped goods, imitating only Galius' movements without thinking about anything.

It must be a natural idea as a craftsman.

Because craftsmen value personality and originality above all else.

No matter how well you make something, it's not always highly regarded.

It is the first time a craftsman has ever been able to make him think that he is the only one who can make it.

Otherwise, it's like Gran's hard tooth sword.

Even in this Orient country without monsters, it seems that a hard tooth sword can be seen to be a work of Gran by a person with a fat knowledge.

This is because Gran's work features in the making of swords and the like.

At first glance, knowing who created it may be important as a craftsman.

But the pottery made by the mercenaries and the orphans doesn't have it.

Something similar to Gallius's.

If I may say so, it's a fake.

Gallius must have created a large number of masterpieces based on his work in front of him and shown it to him.

You must be feeling sick somehow.

"But this is fine, Galius."

"Yeah? What does that mean?As it is, even if you only imitate the selfish monkey rather than Watch Practice , you can't expect to improve as a maker. "

"So that's the wrong assumption.I don't really want these guys to be good builders.They just want to improve the quality of the magic equipment they make in Balkan villages. "

"Of course, that's what I said when I first brought the selfish here, isn't that right?"

"It's okay. I mean, in the country where I was born, I would have made clothes like that.In a city called Dressina. The city, which bears the name of Ars' wife, the Queen Liliana, makes clothes all over the city, but most of them are ready-made. "

"Is it ready-made clothing?"

"Yes, Mr. Ars and a crazy doctor named Meem took statistics on the size of the human body.So, the size of the body obtained was classified into several standards to come up with a common term.So I started making clothes that fit each size.There, one garment artisan thinks about designing clothes in large quantities, and the rest of the subordinates match each other's sizes. "

"... that means that craftsmen do not finish their work alone, but divide their work.In this Vulcan village, it is my role to think about the basics of magical instruments.Those who learned how to make it in [watching exercises].The aim is to mass produce something of the same quality.Individuals do not need artisanal personality or originality for this purpose. "

"Yes, this Vulcan village is its own workshop.Ask Galius to create a work other than Galius'.The personality of the person who actually makes it is not so necessary.They're all like Galius' assistants, to tell you the truth. "

"... I see. That's not an interesting story, Alphonse.Well, that doesn't mean my job involves supervision.I will not only show you how to make it, but also teach you the formula ratio, how to bake it, and how to identify it, and create a large number of awkward works throughout the village.That's an interesting story, isn't it?No matter how skilled a craftsman is, it is impossible to create a large amount of his work in a short period of time.That doesn't mean that the selfish can do it, right? "

"That's right, Galius' job is to teach these people [sightseeing lessons], but they don't need to grow up as top craftsmen.Instead, you can use it as a hand or a foot to create whatever you like.Well, I'll have Christina and I take into account what kind of product we're going to make and sell. "

My words changed Garius's face.

Until then, he would have come to a land he didn't know and given technical guidance.

I only came here because I was cured of Marlon's illness.

I think it was that kind of feeling in Galius.

But turning out that the entire village was a Gallius supervised workshop raised his level of motivation.

Well, originally in Orient Country, he was a renowned craftsman and had quite a few men named apprentices.

The number of personnel slightly exceeded at that time and the situation where a certain quality of work can be entrusted in a short period of time by Watch Practice .

The amount of work that can be done by one person is overwhelmingly different.

I'm sure there's a lot I want to do.

Since this conversation, Galius has become more passionate about teaching.

In order to make use of this Vulcan village as a workshop, the quality of Vulcan's products rose rapidly as a result of teaching more than ever before.
