Saving 80,000 Gold in an Another World for Retirement

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 youre wondering why they easily approved the matter about Beatrice-chan too, of course, thats because Count-sama and Iris-sama were thinking the same as me .

[They dont want to let Beatrice-chan go away, they dont want to let a weird man marry her and make her unhappy!] .

At least, if Beatrice-chan takes a groom instead, it wouldnt 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 theres where my plan comes in .

Its not as if Bozes County is troubled with the territorial management . So they dont have to present Beatrice-chan to connect with a well-funded noble family . On the contrary, high-ranked nobles 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 nobles are eager to connect with Count Bozes, who has become the center of shipbuilding industry and the creation of the Navy, and it is almost certain that he would be promoted to a Marquees . Be it junior nobles or senior nobles even the royals too .

If hes 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 assign 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 cant 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 noble, he cant 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 sheeps 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 continents Vanel Kingdom . The best they can do is to make connection with each other and gather information for their husbands at social parties .

Thats fine for those who like it, but every day will be a little boring for those who dont 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 didnt 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 noble daughter .

And count-sama only said [Might be], he doesnt affirm anything .

Well, I guess thats 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, its perfect!

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

Kuma to Risu . (Note: Bear and squirrel)

Bear to Risu .

Beatrice (Beatorisu)

Urusai! Dont say anything! Dont 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, fishing villages and coastal people are instructed to evacuate just in case and fishing 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 cant 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 theres no one near the coast, I transferred the [rocky area beside the river in the territory] which had been confirmed several times in advance usingcontinuous transfer .

Come! Mass of Rock! (Mitsuha)

I transferred the rock mass 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 mass of rock, far offshore . Then a huge volume of seawater falls and spreads .

However, since its on the middle of the ocean, I think that even if the waves rise a little, it wont 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 mass of rock fell without a break . No matter how much the seawater below was removed, its 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 offshore to [Dump the waves] .

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

Im tired

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

I didnt particularly make the transferred mass 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 . Thats why I intentionally make the bottom to be rough, so that it can [Bite] to the seabed better .

But Im still uneasy with that alone

Once again, transfer! (Mitsuha)

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

Right, its to stabilize the rock mass, 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, lets move to the finishing touch! (Mitsuha)

I transferred onto the rock mass that has been dropped on the sea . Then, the upper part of the rock mass 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 mass 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 Continents ship 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 dont think it can be operated only by the people of this world .

Well anyway, a 35mm cannon is enough . We dont need a super high-tech artillery system that cost hundreds of millions of yen to shoot a slow-moving large sailing ship, 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 approachinglanding crafts .

It doesnt cover the whole circumference . Since the entire circumference 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 .

Its not beautiful to cover the entire circumference with a rustic walls, and we dont 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 disassembled for material use, but there are some that left untouched, so lets use that! (Mitsuha)

I dont 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 basement part is still attached to the building, I must first cut a hole to accommodate the basement part under the ground . of course, by transfer .

If we do it with human power, it would take god knows how long . Its not [Aonodmon] after all

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