 The old lord gave him some advice.

.

"What do you mean?"

 Jin looked doubtful because what he said last night was different from what he said last night.

<"I've tried to organize the information. First, take a look at the map>>

"Okay. <."

 Jin headed for , which had landed beside .

 A topographical map sent by the old man was projected on the magic screen in the cockpit.

"Yes.

<>

Yes, there are indeed.

"Yes."

 Now Jin has an idea of what the old man is trying to say.

"That's right, isn't it?"

 Jin nodded.

"But we checked underground when we built the house, and there is no underground water vein, isn't there?"

<
"Oh, I see."

 Jin scratched his head. The old man is right.

"If we search around the bedrock here, even in the shallow part, there must be underground water veins, right?"

 Jin nodded.

"That's right. If we are going to build a canal, we need to do a thorough investigation. First of all, let's look for underground water veins. Thank you, Mr. Old Man.

 Thus, Jin found an underground water vein about a kilometer north of .

 It was flowing through a crack in the bedrock, and the volume of water was considerable.

 However, the water that had been flowing underground for a long time was so hard that it was not suitable for drinking, so Jin built a water purifier to deal with it.

 Since the water contained slightly high levels of , it was converted to soft water by passing it through a water purifier.

 The alum and magnesium oxide that are produced in this process are kept in stock to be used effectively as chemical substances.

 Alum can be used for color fixing of pickled eggplants, and magnesium oxide can be used as laxative.

 That's about all that ...... Jin knows, but the academic book that <> brought to this world may contain a little more information.

"Well, it's not a problem at this level."

 Onsen...... No, it is a cold spring because the water temperature is about 15 degrees Celsius, but it is classified as an aluminum-containing spring. It is said to be effective for skin diseases.

 However, the content is low, so the extent to which it is effective is unknown.

"There is no problem to boil the water. All the wastewater will be cleaned up and taken underground. That's it."

 He is happy because now that the water is running, he can live for the time being.

"Now all that's left is the yard. ......"

 The area around the house is just graveled, so it is a bleak sight.

 The view from the window still lacks greenery.

 Even though the area is recovering, it is still mainly grass.

"I think I should plant some trees in the garden and build a small pond.

 While Horaijima is mainly a laboratory of his predecessor, so he did not play around with it much, this is a place where Jin can configure it as he likes.

"I dreamed of having a pond from the porch and keeping goldfish in the pond ...... when I was in the institution."

 I used to think it would be nice to have a little house of my own," Jin recalls fondly of the past.

"We've come a long way. ...... Oh, plant some low trees there."

 Jin looked at the craftsman (Smith) and the foresters who were preparing the garden and muttered to himself.

 Since he did not have a firm idea about the garden, after three hours of trial and error, he was satisfied with the garden.

 The house was surrounded by a low hill about one meter high, and on the hill were planted azaleas, satsuki, sasanquas, camellias, yukiyanagi, yamabuki, lengyou, kodemari, oodemari, hydrangea, and other shrubs.

 The names of the plants are unified in the Japanese style.

 After a few years, when the leaves grow thick, the inside will be hidden from view. However, there is no one who can peek into the house.

 The total area of the site is about 500 tsubo.

 From the porch facing south, a pond can be seen in front of the house.

 Although it is in the style of a Japanese garden, it is not designed in a formal manner. It is more like a pond in a park.

 Of course, Jin's favorite cherry trees (cherries) were planted, as well as fruit trees such as plum (plums), peaches (persica), and apples (april).

 The north side of the house is still paved with gravel because I want to build a garage for a size aircraft.

"What about the bugs?"

 I asked Reiko,

"Yes, Father. The number of bumblebees that were originally here is gradually increasing, so I think pollination will be fine.

 Bumblebee is a general term for bees that pollinate pollen, such as honeybees, bumblebees, and bees.

"It seems that <> was concerned about the preservation of the ecosystem, and there were protected areas at that time.

 The protected area was left unattended after the Originals left Hale, but most of the species survived.

 Reiko said that the fact that the protected area that <> had built was nearly maintenance-free may have helped.

"When was that?"

  Jin had never heard of it.

"Yes, I found that out when your father made a detailed survey of Hale four hundred years ago."

"Is that what you mean?"

"That's what you mean." "Yes. Since that time, he had been planning the redevelopment of Hale, including the redevelopment of 700672 for your sake.

"Is that so?"



 It seems that four hundred years ago Jin also thought that it would be a waste or a shame to leave this heirloom.

Reiko knows about it, doesn't she?

"Yes. I'm sorry about ......."

"Sorry for what?"

"...... for not telling your father the whole story."

 Jin smiled a smile that was neither wry nor compassionate.

"If you're doing this for my sake, don't worry about it."

 Jin patted Reiko on the head.

"It's true, there are many things that would be uninteresting if we knew them.

 Tricks and culprits in mystery novels are one of the best examples of such things.

"Well, if I ask you, you can tell me."

 Jin casually let this matter slide.

 For lunch, I made porridge with water from the newly installed tap.

"Yeah, no problem.

 If all the minerals were removed, the water would be tasteless, just like distilled water.

 So I set the water purifier to remove harmful and too much components, and it seems to have worked well.

"Now we'll work on it little by little."

 Jin smiled with satisfaction after his big job.
