710 - - 21-22 1 Year Goals





On the morning of January 2nd, Jin woke up at 8:00 a.m. Horai Island time.

There is a time difference of about 2 hours and 20 minutes from the village of Kaina, so he has enough time to see Hannah.

He eats breakfast prepared by Reiko with Elsa, who wakes up rubbing her sleepy eyes.

The menu consists of white rice, miso soup with fried bean curd and okara, dried plums, grilled dried horse mackerel (or similar fish), and hojicha green tea.

"I'm sorry, but I couldn't make zoni because I couldn't find glutinous rice."

Zoni is a New Year's dish, and the rice cakes essential for it cannot be made with glutinous rice, but with glutinous rice instead of the Uruchi rice that the people of Japan eat.

The starch in glutinous rice is highly viscous when cooked, which is essential for making the rice cakes.

By the way, glutinous rice is written as <> and <> refers to a crop that contains no or very little amylose (a type of starch).

"No, this is my favorite food," Jin said.

Jin drank the miso soup with relish.

"Jin, I like this one too.

Erza also liked the miso soup with okara.

"That's good. Okara is full of fiber and good for beauty ......."

When Jin said this, Erza's eating pace seemed to speed up a little.

Reiko, who cooked the meal, watched happily as the two ate.

After breakfast, there was still some time left, so I went to ask the old man how he was analyzing the transporter he got from <<700672> yesterday, and he made an interesting suggestion. He made an interesting suggestion.

"Yes, let's hear it."

<<"Yes, let me hear it. Send the marker out with the transporter, use the transporter, and transfer the whole transporter to the marker. Wouldn't this be called a <>? >>

"I see. ......"

The magical brain that Jin has created, Lao-kun, sometimes comes up with ideas that even Jin would not come up with. That is, after all, a proof of his extraordinary ability.

"Indeed. You can say that you have realized a in a pseudo way.

The key to the transporter, the azimuth measuring instrument, is the same as the <>. The distance between the two measuring instruments increases the accuracy at a distance, because it uses triangulation.

"Wait a minute. If the marker has the function of <>, we can see what is happening at the destination.

This is effective in terms of safety, as it allows us to know if the destination is correct and free from danger.

"It would be interesting to experimentally put this on something."

<<< Shall we build a large aircraft, a Condor 4? >>

"Yes, that's right. Yes, you can try it experimentally.


If we can build a warp engine, it will make travel even easier. Jin thought that this method was also interesting, even if it was pseudo.

At the scheduled time, Jin, Reiko, Erza, and Edgar moved to the village of Kaina.

On the 2nd, the village of Kaina was back to its normal life, without any of the excitement of New Year's Day.

(I wonder if modern Japan has too many vacations. ......)

Jin looks at the villagers and thinks about such things.

In the village of Kaina, which has no concept of holidays in the first place, everyone thinks that life as usual is the best.

"Onii-chan!

Hannah ran up to me.

Except for the children.

Since their lives have become easier, they are now free from helping out at home and can spend more time for playing and studying.

Since the study session starts on the 4th, the so-called three days of the week are winter vacation, so everyone was playing happily.

"You were making snowmen?"

"Yes! Look at this!"

Hannah's snowman was made in the Japanese style, i.e., two snowballs, one large and one small, stacked on top of the other. The face is made of black stones.

"Oh, it's very well done!"

"Hey, this is my grandma and this is my grandma's grandma. This is Reiko and this is Elsa. And this is me."

Five snowmen of slightly different sizes stood in a circle. Jin patted Hannah on the head,

"Good work. Aren't you cold?"

He patted Hannah on the head and said.

"No, I'm fine. I have a glove that my grandma gave me.

The gloves made of rabbit fur keep out the cold and moisture.

He wears boots made of snow tiger leather on his feet, by the way.

Hannah and the other children of Kaina village, who are naturally tolerant of the cold, were all flying around with full of energy.

The good times fly by.

It's almost noon, and it's time for Jin and the others to go out.

"Bye, honey!

Hannah sends Jin off with a smile.

Jin vows to do his best this year to keep this smile on his face.

"Mmmm, a 40-meter ship!

Richard Valois de Cerlois, King of the Kingdom of Cerlois, was outraged upon hearing the report.

On December 12, off the coast of Koup in the Kingdom of Celuloa, the story of the passing of of the Shoro Empire and of the merchant Ecarte Tecles reached him.

"Is there such a huge ship in practical use that even our own Royal Kingdom of Selroa's military does not have?

The great rivers Asur and Torres flow to the east and west of the capital city of Esia, and the giant lake Lake Asur is located in the north.

The Kingdom of Cerroa was not allowed to lose in shipbuilding to any other country because of the pride of the king.

"Immediately, make a national plan for the construction of giant ships. This year will be the year that my Kingdom of Cerroa will reign over the nations.

In the Kingdom of Cerroa, the king's orders are absolute. The First Secretary of the Interior, Lambreaux, immediately called a meeting to discuss the project.

What about the budget?

What about manpower?

Will it be built in ...... Lake Asur?

No, then how would it be transported to the sea?

There is the Asur River and the Naudarya River!

After much debate, it was decided to build a dock at Lake Asur and to collect the best magecraftsmen and shipwrights.

Temporary taxes are also levied, and the people's discontent grows.

However, no one admonished the king for fear of offending him.

Then...

"Father, this plan is too hasty!

The first prince, the Dauphin, was the only one who complained.

Cesar. Do you have a complaint?

Richard, the king of Celuloa, looked down at the prince from his throne and opened his mouth.

"I am not dissatisfied with the plan itself. I am not dissatisfied with the plan itself, but I think you are being too hasty. Impatience leads to oversight, and oversight leads to accidents.

But the king snickers.

"Hmph, do you really believe in our magical technology so much?

"It's not a matter of belief. It is better to be a little less worried.

"You have a point. But think about it. The prestige of our country is more important than some vague fear. Do you really think we can remain defeated by the private sector, let alone fall behind the Shoro Empire?"

The Dauphin turned his head down, but quickly looked up and countered.

"No, it's not that we've lost, but rather that we should show that even the private sector has this much technology, don't you think?

"Well, that's an interesting idea. ...... Kupu is under my brother's jurisdiction, is it not? I will inform Alan and commandeer the ship of that merchant named Ekarto or something.

Commandeer. That is to say, the state will requisition them.

Father! That's not good for the people!

What are you talking about? This land belongs to the crown. The people who live here belong to the crown. What's wrong with bringing what belongs to you?

"Father, ......"

"Cesar, if you are to be the next king, remember this. The trick to a prosperous kingdom is to know when to let your people live and when not to kill them."

"...... Excuse me."

The Dauphin Cesar dropped from the king's presence with a droop.
