「Ye-Yes, I will gladly accept anything...... But, is this all right.....?」
Valetta had an uneasy expression, but after Kazura gave his ‘it’s all right’ answer, she replied yes.
Although she had consented with this very unreasonable proposal, up until this point, there were still no devised steps. For the time being they just had to just try and do it.
Besides, the existence of waterwheel would be not immediately exposed. There was still time to make up a plan.
「Ano[5], Kazura-san, I just had an idea, but......」
Kazura was mumbling about 「What would happen if they inquire in precision machining[6]......」 and looked greatly troubled of it. Seeing him like this, Valetta suddenly had a light bulb shined in her mind and then started to call out to Kazura.
「What is it?」
「If possible, instead of the waterwheel that had been installed, what if everyone build a new waterwheel and install it, is that all right? After all, there is a waterwheel to become the model, so I think that we can build another more easily.」
「Will it really be an easy thing to do?」
Hearing Valetta’s suggestion, Kazura nodded and pondered it.
Even though there was a waterwheel that could become the model, will they really be able to fabricate another waterwheel so suddenly?
However, even if considering that they already seen a waterwheel, but the precision machine parts like the axle was made from metal, so that it can handle the entire load in it. In any case, Valetta’s idea was the best solution for now.
「Is that so...... Certainly if that waterwheel been seen then it will become unpleasant in various ways. So, let us somehow built another waterwheel in 1 month time. At least, as long as it can draw even a little bit of water it will be fine.」(Kaz)
「Yes, moreover if we had built another waterwheel, then if Isaac-san or Nelson-sama ask about it, we will be able to answer.」(Val)
Hearing their onversation, Valin nodded in agreement and then speak,
「Just like that, Valetta and the villagers will study the waterwheel. One way or another everyone will cooperate and do their best.」
With that said. The current discussion was settled.
✦✧✦✧
The next morning, with the help of Valetta, Kazura transferred the load from the folding Pullcart No2 to Pullcart No1. He then, once again, returned to Japan to fetch the fertilizer.
「Well then, I’ll going to fetch the fertilizer. Does studying at evening sounds good to you?」
「Yes, thank you very much. But, if you are tired after scattering the fertilizer, then it’s fine to do it at another day.」
Although Valetta said that because she worried about Kazura, she was really happy to be able to study and it reflected in her looks that were full with anticipation.
Even though yesterday they had talked about building a new waterwheel with the villagers’ hand, there still work left, such as scattering the fertilizer on the fields. If that task had finished then they can proceed to building the waterwheel as scheduled.
That because they will be able to sow vegetable seeds, so this task took the highest priority.
Because at the evening there will be no field or manufacturing work, Kazura decided to use this chance to teach Valetta.
「I understand. Then, I’m off!」[7]
「Yes. Please, be careful!」
While Valetta waving her hand to send him off, Kazura left the residence behind.
