After installing the deep well pump, Jin and Reinhardt were treated to a sumptuous dinner as a token of appreciation from the innkeeper, who was very impressed.

The innkeeper was so impressed that he begged Jin to install the same pumps in the kitchen, bathroom, and washroom wells.

Reinhardt, feeling that the situation was getting out of hand, discussed with Jin after dinner about transferring the pumps to the Magi Engineers' Guild.

He set two conditions.

First, that this technology be passed on to the Guild of Magical Engineers in this city.

Second, that they do not monopolize this technology.

The first is to share this technology with the Guild of Magi Engineers in this city.

Later that night, the guild leader himself arrived from the guild of Hatata.

My name is Coates Lordite. My name is Coates-Laudite. Mr. Reinhardt, I've heard a lot about you.

"Pleased to meet you. We don't have much time, so let's get started right away.

Jin then made a pump out of bronze, which the guild had prepared for him.

"Very interesting structure," he said.

As might be expected from the head of the guild, Coates-Lordite's skill and understanding as a magical engineer (magi engineer) were quite impressive.

"I see. The key is this cylinder, piston, and valve, isn't it?

"That's right. At the very least, the sliding parts should be hardened, preferably coated with adamantite. If not, periodic inspections and maintenance are necessary.

"I understand. But adamantite is not possible, so hardening is the only way to go.

Jin had Coates-Laudite build one of the pumps, and he was impressed that he was able to build it without any problems.

Later, when Reinhardt told him that he was one of the top ten magi engineers in the Shoro Empire, Jin nodded his head.

He nodded his head and said, "Oh, no!

"Well, Jin, good work!

With the help of Coates-Laudite, the pumps were installed in all of the inn's wells by 11:00 p.m. Reinhardt, as expected, was tired.

Reinhardt seemed to be tired as expected, and after saying this to Jin, he disappeared into his bedroom. Jin was also tired and was about to enter his room when Matheus stopped him.

"Jin-dono, you did a wonderful job today. I am sorry that I could not do anything to help you and could only watch you.

He expressed his feelings in this way.

"Well then, have a good night."

Thank you. Thank you. Good night."

Jin answered in the same way and went into his room this time.

"Father, thank you for your hard work."

Reiko said to him.

"Oh, thank you. I didn't get a report from the old man, but did you notice anything unusual?

When Jin asked her, Reiko answered.

"Yes, Mr. Locke and the other five returned safely to the rest house.

"Oh, that's good to hear."

Rand R and S found Mr. Locke and the others on their way back to the village and are escorting them secretly to the village.

"Yes, that's good. Good work."

Jin was relieved that the conscripts had returned safely.

Then he heard that the castle was finished.

"Oh, I see."

Jin was happy.

"Well, I'm tired tonight, so let's go back tomorrow night.

"Yes."

When Jin was tired and knew that there was nothing more to report, he lay down and slept soundly until morning.

What?

"What! The road was open to traffic before you knew it?

"Yes, it seems that the "Nostalgia Party" has been working on it in the middle of the night.

"The Nostalgia party again. They're ...... a bunch of pussies."

And then there is silence for a while.

"...... buy up all the salt."

"What?"

"The village of Kaina does not produce salt. The salt is carried by peddlers. Buy up all the salt at every village along the way.

I've heard that a merchant's trust is his first priority. Will they sell all of it?

"You can leave a little. I'll give you three times the money. And use threats.

......

But don't mention my name.

Count Walter Quinta, Deneb 29, was listening attentively.

"I can't believe Jin-san had the village of Kaina as his leased land. ......"

Licia muttered as she combed her hair on her bed at home.

The story Gloria had told her was an unofficial one, but Licia had heard it directly from the Prime Minister who had come to work that day.

"As I thought, it must be Mr. Jin, isn't it?

Licia, upon hearing the story, reconfirmed that the Honorary Magical Craftsman of the Kingdom of Egelea named Jin was the same young man she knew.

"I see. Well, that's a good thing. Farheit, you are hereby placed on leave of absence from the Order of Rescue as of this day. And you will be our emissary to the village of Kaina.

Messenger?

Yes. You'll be our ambassador in the leased territories. You know each other well, so you'll make a good impression on Jin-dono. You will arrange your own accommodations. You will be provided with a sufficient budget. I'll send someone to brief you on the details later.

"Yes, sir."

Licia was pleased to be able to officially meet Jin, whom she had been unable to see due to a misunderstanding.

"When I go to the village of Kaina, I would like to assign one of my knights as my escort and squire.

The Prime Minister asked, to which Licia simply replied, "No one in particular.

"All right. Then we will make our selection. Schedule your departure for the day after tomorrow.

"Yes, sir. Thank you very much.

Meanwhile, on May 9th, in the village of Kaina.

"What the hell is this building?"

Rock was the one who said that. He has just returned and doesn't know much about the background.

"It's Jin's castle!"

The inhabitants of Kaina village are whispering to each other as they look at the castle tower that stands close to the Erme River.

"Wow, so this is what the castle in Jin's hometown looks like..."

The white walls and tiled roof on top of the stone walls, five stories, six floors, and two basement floors. Matsumoto Castle is probably the closest in image to this castle. However, the site is square and there is no small castle tower.

The top of the castle is properly topped with a golden orca, and a lightning rod is attached for safety.

"How could such a huge structure be built in such a short period of time?

"What the hell is that guy?"

Rock shouted at Barrow, who looked at him in confusion and said he didn't understand.

"Oh, you didn't know, did you? Jin brought him here, his name is Barrow.

"I see, you don't know much about Jin, do you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Barrow cannot hide his confusion at the unfazed people of Kaina Village. Behle, on the other hand, was already getting used to them.

"Jin-san, you are amazing! You built such a great thing before you knew it!"

"Hmmm... Brother Jin uses a lot of golems that do this kind of thing. If you give them instructions, it's easy to do something like this.

Erza, who knew the situation to some extent, explained.

Seeing that most of the villagers had gathered, Chief Giebeck decided to take the opportunity to explain the situation.

"Listen up, everyone. Jin has taken credit in the capital, and in return, we are going to lease this village of Kaina for fifty years, ...... well..."

Giebeck continued, choosing expressions that were easy to understand.

"Well, you can think of it as a temporary lordship. Well, you can think of it as a temporary lord, so Jin built it for his official work.

The village head was familiar with the situation, having been briefed by Butler A, Jin's deputy, as a deputy.

"We usually live in the house we built at Martha's place, and we will manage the village from here. There is a pantry in the basement that can be used as a shelter in case of emergency.

"Oh! That's what I'm talking about!

Someone shouts.

"However, I will continue to work as the village head as usual, so practically nothing will change.

Jin, after consulting with Giebeck about having him as deputy, had settled on paying him about 10% of the taxes, or 50,000 tol as his annual salary.

"Do you have any questions?"

"Oh, what should I call Jin from now on? "Oh, what should I call Jin from now on?

This question rocks.

"Jin said to keep it the same as before.

"Ha, that's just like Jin."

Locke's laughter echoed in the clear sky of the village of Kaina.
