Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement Chapter 190

190 . Strangely Shaped Rock Island 2

Anyways, somehow, the matter about the island has been approved by Count-sama and Iris-sama… Of course, the matter about Beatrice-chan too .

If you’re wondering why they easily approved the matter about Beatrice-chan too, of course, that’s because Count-sama and Iris-sama were thinking the same as me .

[They don’t want to let Beatrice-chan go away, they don’t want to let a weird man marry her and make her unhappy!] .

At least, if Beatrice-chan takes a groom instead, it wouldn’t be her who is unhappy . However, the heir of the house is the second son Theodore-sama . So Beatrice-chan cannot afford to take a groom . And there’s where my plan comes in .

It’s not as if Bozes County is troubled with the territorial management . So they don’t have to present Beatrice-chan to connect with a well-funded n.o.ble family . On the contrary, high-ranked n.o.bles that are in trouble due to fiscal difficulties and declining faction powers, seems to be the most concerned whether they can push a marriage proposal to bring in the Bozes House .

Many n.o.bles are eager to connect with Count Bozes, who has become the center of s.h.i.+pbuilding industry and the creation of the Navy, and it is almost certain that he would be promoted to a Marquees . Be it junior n.o.bles or senior n.o.bles… even the royals too .

If he’s pushed by the royal family, no matter how far off the line they are, it would be hard for him to refuse, no matter how much of a doting father he is .

And this is where my proposal comes to play .

It is to a.s.sign her to become the key figure of the company that would be the trade center between the rapidly developing Bozes Country and the territory of Himemiko of Thunder, the Yamano Viscounty, and effectively become the key to economic activity in both territories . On top of that, it would also serve as an artillery island to respond to enemies from the sea . Of course, it is possible to get a lot of revenue .

[Well, I can’t possibly let my daughter, who is keeping the lifeline of my territory, to go elsewhere . My daughter should take a groom and have him work for my Bozes territory…]

So if he could say something along that line, he can refuse the marriage proposals for his daughter . And if Count Bozes is promoted to Marquees, even if the opponent is a senior n.o.ble, he can’t be forced to present his daughter as a bride to another family .

And then he can just take someone with good future prospects, good personality, …and someone that Beatrice-chan is attracted to, as a groom . Although I pity to the one who would be the groom, that he would live in a place where Count-sama and Iris-sama can reach…

Maybe, Iris-sama will be wearing her sheep’s clothing at first too . Fuhaha!!

“Call Beatrice!” (Count-sama)

Count-sama shouted at the maid who is waiting behind the door .

And the three of us looked and nodded at each other .

“I do! I absolutely do! I will accept that role!” (Beatrice-chan)

She decided in one shot .

Yes, naturally, there are very few places in this country where women can play an active role in society, like the new continent’s Vanel Kingdom . The best they can do is to make connection with each other and gather information for their husbands at social parties .

That’s fine for those who like it, but every day will be a little boring for those who don’t like it .

…and Beatrice-chan obviously belong to the latter part .

Moreover, this is a pretty big job, and on top of that, it is a request from me . I didn’t expect any other replies in the first place .

Well, one of the words from Count-sama that [You might be able to marry the man of your choice], might have been a big factor for that . A romantic marriage is a dream for every n.o.ble daughter .

And count-sama only said [Might be], he doesn’t affirm anything .

Well, I guess that’s natural . It would be unbearable if she were to bring a weird man .

And I have already thought the design of the company flag .

A bear that stands for the strong and mighty Bozes County, and on its shoulder, a little squirrel who is giving the impression of [I will lend my wisdom, so protect me!], that stands for Yamano Viscounty .

Yeah, it’s perfect!

And, because of the language barrier, the people of this world would never understand the meaning behind it .

k.u.ma to Risu . (Note: Bear and squirrel)

Bear to Risu .

Beatrice… (Beatorisu)

Urusai! Don’t say anything! Don’t ask the Yamano Family for their genius naming sense!

Yeah, of course, the design was commissioned to that child from the orphanage, codenamed [Conspiracy Girl] . She did a good job as always…

Count-sama has granted his permission .

In addition, fis.h.i.+ng villages and coastal people are instructed to evacuate just in case and fis.h.i.+ng boats and moving objects near the coast are also evacuated . …the evacuation instruction also serves another purpose, that is to eliminate witnesses .

For safety, I can’t just do this sneakily in the dark at night . So this needs to be done in the midday . At night, it might be difficult to evacuate the villagers, and it is difficult to observe the sea conditions .

After confirming that there’s no one near the coast, I transferred the [rocky area beside the river in the territory] which had been confirmed several times in advance using continuous transfer .

“Come! Ma.s.s of Rock!” (Mitsuha)

I transferred the rock ma.s.s on the sea surface about 500 meters away from the coastline, which I had checked the water depth and various conditions in advance .

And at the same time as it appeared, I transferred the seawater below, just about the same volume as the ma.s.s of rock, far offsh.o.r.e . Then a huge volume of seawater falls and spreads .

However, since it’s on the middle of the ocean, I think that even if the waves rise a little, it won’t have much effect . It would have been a big nuisance to the fishes in the water though…

And then I returned to the position where the ma.s.s of rock fell without a break . No matter how much the seawater below was removed, it’s not possible to completely suppress the generation of the waves . And a large wave spread in all direction from the fall position .

Take the part of the wave and… Transfer!

Again, I went offsh.o.r.e to [Dump the waves] .

And I returned to the fall location and confirmed that there were no large waves headed to the nearby coast .

…I’m tired…

No, I’m not tired from using the Transfer itself, but I’m mentally tired . I did a series of [things that I can’t afford to fail] in a short period of time, so I was tired from that .

I didn’t particularly make the transferred ma.s.s of rock to be beautiful . I thought that if it was spherical, tetrahedral, or hexahedral, it would be rather unstable if it settled down on the rough seabed . That’s why I intentionally make the bottom to be rough, so that it can [Bite] to the seabed better .

But I’m still uneasy with that alone…

“Once again, transfer!” (Mitsuha)

I repeated the continuous transfer again, this time I took a cut of another rock ma.s.s from the rocky area earlier, about 50 meters square and about 2 meters thick, and transferred it above the first rock ma.s.s . And then let it drop .

Right, it’s to stabilize the rock ma.s.s, hit it from above to drive it into the seabed .

Dogooonnn!! (SFX)

The rock shattered with a loud noise, and the fragments were transferred back to the rocky area earlier .

“Alright, let’s move to the finis.h.i.+ng touch!” (Mitsuha)

I transferred onto the rock ma.s.s that has been dropped on the sea . Then, the upper part of the rock ma.s.s protruding above the sea surface is cut straight and flat, and then transfer the debris to the dump site .

“Next…” (Mitsuha)

A circle hole is made in one place of the flat rock ma.s.s using transfer . Then I inserted a tall cylindrical rock that has been cut earlier into it, make a notch for stairs around it, and dig the upper part of it to make a place to install a gun…

Right, this is a battery . Put the gun here and watch the approaching enemy .

For the time being, I will put a fake cannon as a decoration, but we will use a 35mm autocannon later .

That will be enough, since the range of the gun is approximately 3 miles, while the artillery range of the New Continent’s s.h.i.+p is just about a mile .

And above all, it can be operated by a small number of people, the firing speed is fast, and easy to use because it is compact . Large-caliber guns needs a lot of work, such as ammunition systems, and too unnatural and expensive for the Wolf Fang to buy . In the first place, I don’t think it can be operated only by the people of this world .

Well anyway, a 35mm cannon is enough . We don’t need a super high-tech artillery system that cost hundreds of millions of yen to shoot a slow-moving large sailing s.h.i.+p, so if I ask captain-san to find a used one, I can buy it at a very cheap bargain .

…the rest is to make a crenellated rock wall to shoot the approaching landing crafts .

It doesn’t cover the whole circ.u.mference . Since the entire circ.u.mference is a steep cliff, It would be difficult to climb from a place other than the dock and the slopes and stairs I built . So, I just need crenellated bullet-proof walls to protect the shooters .

It’s not beautiful to cover the entire circ.u.mference with a rustic walls, and we don’t intend to let the enemies to land on this island .

And the other various constructions and handiwork were done using transfer too .

And for the final touch .

“Alright, most of the expensive mansions and warehouses that were seized from the enemy country during the previous [war] were disa.s.sembled for material use, but there are some that left untouched, so let’s use that!” (Mitsuha)

I don’t know when it will be completed if we start from transporting materials to build a building from scratch, and it will take too much efforts . So I decided to reuse the houses and warehouses that had been confiscated from a country that had been in war with my Yamano Viscounty because they were attempted to abduct Sabine-chan and Colette-chan before .

Since the bas.e.m.e.nt part is still attached to the building, I must first cut a hole to accommodate the bas.e.m.e.nt part under the ground . …of course, by transfer .

If we do it with human power, it would take G.o.d knows how long . It’s not [Aonodōmon] after all…

Anyway, just like that, the civil engineering works were progressed quickly by using the transfer ability .
