Ascendance of a Bookworm

“What are you going to do when you work outside?”

“… It’s a restaurant serving restaurants that serve aristocratic cuisine”

The chief of the priest shouted, wondering if I remembered when I spoke in my room before.

“Do you mean that you have to be a part of the gray priest who experienced side serving?”

“Gray priests with experience in side serving are soft, conscientious, have a good attitude, and best, but they can do to some extent even with gils that have just been served. I think we will be able to do it soon. ”

Although it is helpful to have one experienced person, even if it is not a gray priest with experience in serving, there is no problem. The children of the orphanage are basically submissive and obedient, whether they are being served or sided by blue priests and are taught to be violent or confined and taught from the time they were born It is.

Because the model is familiar, it is not so difficult to educate.

“… If I can do it right away, should I educate the commoners in the downtown area?”

“There is a big difference in whether or not you know the aristocratic family. Whether it’s posture, attitude or language …”

If education is easy, Benno will not bother. Most of the restaurants in downtown restaurants serve as prostitutes. And while busy, chef apprentices are driven out, but it is basically considered to be a low grade job.

Although I have to be hired as a waitperson, I am sure that only women close to the poor will come after recruiting. Then, the high-class atmosphere of the store will be broken. In order to educate, it is not easy to change all the attitudes and wording, as Lutz is having a hard time.

“If it’s a Benno store, wouldn’t it be so bad? If you were a follower at that time, would you do the job?”

Benno’s follower, known by the Priest, is Marc. Marc is by far the best in Gilberta. Because Marc is educating, all employees are good at speaking and speaking, but they are not allowed to serve them.

Darua contracted at Benno’s shop is basically merchant children who want to connect with Gilberta. Whether it’s clothing-related work or paperwork, waiters are not included in the work. Also, if you let it happen, you will have a great rebound.

“A gray priest who was a side servant is a natural job, but can I work without a guardian? Who will be a guardian?” And only that person can get a salary In the Orphanage, there will be disparities, but what are your views on that? ”

If there is only one person, Benno may be a guardian, but I don’t know if any person can be a guardian of all the required waiters. And the salary gap that occurred at the orphanage was completely unthinkable.

“… I can’t answer right away”

“Sorry, it’s not that simple.”

The priest slowly exhaled. It wasn’t a simple question, but I knew that I couldn’t get permission unless I got the answer.

“I don’t want to get permission right away. I just wanted to hear from the chief priest … What do you think the priest thinks about going out of the gray priest?”

Listening to my questions straight, the priest who struck the temple lightly with his fingertips narrowed his eyes and thought.

“Fum. Yeah … I think it’s tough”

“Tough?”

“If you look at it, you can see, but is there a big difference between the outside and the temple? Do you think that the gray priests who know only inside the temple suddenly become familiar with the outside world?”

¡Swirled his head slowly, remembering the first time he walked outside with Franc and Gil.

“If it’s just in the restaurant, I think it will be somehow. Otherwise …”

If you are working in a restaurant that mimics the room of an aristocrat, looking at a customer as an aristocrat, the act of serving gray priests is basically correct. There is a business exchange, but if you look at the behavior at the main workshop, I think it’s okay.

However, when you step outside the restaurant, it becomes a world where the common sense of the temple is completely incomprehensible.

“And what if a priest who knew outside wanted to live outside by going to work? Can you guarantee life outside?”

“That’s difficult … I’m a child and I can’t be a guardian, and even if I ask Benno-san, what I can prepare will be the same as a living apprentice. It ’s hard for a priest who is accustomed to being given to live outside, alone ”

Servants of the temple and have food when they come back. In particular, since Mine Kobo now makes money with Trombe, you can eat rice to the extent that everyone can be satisfied. If you live outside the temple, you will either make it yourself after work or eat it outside, but I don’t think you can endure the taste of the priest who is used to sharing aristocratic meals.

Even if the rice problem is solved with a bribe, it is a little scary to leave a priest who has never shopped and does not know the concept and usage of money.

“And this is the most important thing for me, but what about the public’s eyes about hiring an orphan? Will you accept it favorably? Isn’t it?”

“… I think it’s tough”

Considering the reaction of my family when I tried to enter the temple, I wasn’t very good at orphans and awareness of the temple. If you look at the job, you will be evaluated, but you can expect the prejudice to be quite tight.

“Furthermore, isn’t there a possibility that it will be difficult to stay in an orphanage due to the disparity that arises by going outside in the temple? Wasn’t it started when the job industry changed? ”

“… Yes”

Employees with different types of salary have different salaries. The disparity in the temple, orphanage, where everyone praises equality, may be worse than the trap that happened in the Lutz family, because the common sense so far ceases to work.

And since I have the title Orphanage Director, I have to keep up with the confusion.

… I’m scared.

The confusion caused by sudden changes cannot be predicted at all. When you are told if you can take all of that responsibility, you want to escape.

The head of the priest’s sharp line of sight was slightly relaxed, as I expected the barking in me.

“I think there’s no problem with working at the Mine workshop. As you said, it’s profitable and the orphanage environment is in place. Benno and other merchants come in and out and return to the forest. However, I heard that the children were doing well by touching the outside, but in accordance with the rules of the temple and working while touching a little outside, I went outside. There should be a big difference in working according to outside rules. “

“That’s right”

When I asked, the priest showed a little relieved expression that I was convinced.

“But most of all, Benno is a guardian. I still don’t know Benno well. I don’t even have a standard to judge whether it’s a trustworthy target from a lower noble who buys gray priests as a subordinate. I don’t know if the restaurant is a working environment for the priests. “

“Well, if the chief came to the tasting party, wouldn’t you be able to judge the environment with your own eyes?”

When I proposed to the chief with a smile, the chief gave up his shoulders and shook his head as if amazed.

“I don’t know what I’m planning, but there’s everything on my face that I’m thinking about bad things. Be able to hide your emotions … Anyway, the merchants up to Mine Kobo You can enter, and you can allow more work, but the priest refuses to go outside. “

I expected to be rejected, so I didn’t feel so disappointed. Rather, I would like to change it little by little and eventually be recognized by the priest.

“… I understand. Until the restaurant is open, it’s okay, so I’ll try to get the chief to know Benno. Mr. Benno”

“Do you make an effort?”

“I do a little, but I have a lot of other efforts”

“I see”

The priest chief smiled laughingly. “Prefer those who have a noble behavior”.

…… I have priority in making picture books for babies born.

“That’s why the priest was denied work outside.”

The day after the meeting with the priest, I reported as usual at the Benno store. Report what the priests were out of, after listing what they saw in the noble dinner.

Benno also asked if it was supposed to be rejected.

“Now, Mine. Because I was allowed access to the workshop, could I put a waiter education in the job of the Mine workshop?”

“Well, it might be just right for earning foreign currency during the winter when you can’t make paper, but I’m going to do handwork”

Winter is a season with lots of firewood and food. You can’t find it in the forest, so you have to buy it. Because it is trapped in the snow, handicrafts that can make money while killing time are important.

“What do you do in an orphanage?”

“I’m planning to make a lot of toys. I want to buy a lot of boards from the woodworking workshop, but Benno’s acquaintance’s workshop is busy preparing the restaurant, right? Would you please do it? “

I would like you to take into account that the delivery time to the restaurant will be further extended. Even though it is said to be normal here, I can’t stand it because I feel like a plan collapses.

“Others …”

“This is an orphanage winter preparation, so delivery is important.”

Benno feels reluctant to introduce others, but to be honest, it’s a problem even if you postpone the job you asked for. I’d like to ask for a place to deliver surely.

“If Benno-san is difficult to introduce because of the relationship, can I have someone else introduce me?”

“Is your other person a Frida?

Benno opened his eyes. I thought Frida would know a different workshop from Benno, but it was rejected before I gave her name.

“… I can’t help it. Let’s talk to the master of the workshop and introduce another workshop.”

“Now, I’d like an ink workshop first. I want ink. Rather, even if there is only a board, it’s useless if there is no ink.”

When I asked for ink several times, Benno stood up after scratching his head several times. Hold me up and walk out to leave the room.

“Marc takes Mine and goes around the ink and woodworking workshops. Lutz, come.”

“Yes, my husband”

I went to a store selling ink while being held by Benno.

Therefore, I check the price of the ink on the shelf, and feel the distance to the printing business because of the high price.

“Are there other inks?”

“I don’t sell here. If you really care, go directly to the workshop.”

Listening to the location of the workshop where Benno is making ink beside me, I headed to the craftsman’s street.

When I go to a craftsman’s ink workshop, I feel a stuffy nose with miscellaneous odors. I got Benno down and walked myself into the workshop.

“… It’s unusual for a customer to come directly here. What is it for?”

Since ink is needed only by rich people who can read and write characters, it seems to be ordered at a store that handles it, not at a workshop. No one seems to come to a workshop that smells like a medicine.

The master of the workshop, with black spots all over the face and clothes, gazes at us with a suspicious face. Extracting pigments and blending inks is a fine job. A man who seems nervous.

“I want to know what kind of ink is made”

“Type?”

In my question, my parents looked down on me, making the eyebrows between the eyebrows even deeper, even though they were normal.

“Yes, how are you making it?”

“Miss-chan, the recipe isn’t something to teach”

The parent who screamed when he told me that he wouldn’t talk, seems to finish the talk, and I hurry to add words.

“I don’t want to know how to make … I want to know the type of ink.” Gables ( Mosshoku [ 19459097]) “Is it a“ Lamp Black ”ink, or a high viscosity ink? … I want to know that.”

“… What? What?”

Since I don’t know the name of the ink type in this world, it doesn’t seem to work for my parents at all. I’m desperately thinking if I can’t identify the type of ink in the words I know, to get some information.

“Well, how many types of ink do you handle here?”

“Ink is ink. There is only one”

Parents give up their shoulders, not to ask for anything else.

“Tell me how to make this, so please tell me what kind of ink you are making”

“Ah”

After closing his eyes lightly in a troublesome manner, his parents slowly crawled.

Perhaps Curry ( Mossy ) Assuming that ink was made I will explain the process as easily and as easily as possible.

“The dye is removed from the plant lobes, fermented, iron ions … mixed with iron salt, and the bark of the tree …”

“That’s it! Why do you know!”

The sighing parent has ridden the previously troublesome expression and embarked on himself. With so much momentum I ask while stepping back one step.

“There are no other types, right?”

“… Is there other ink?”

From the reaction of the parents who narrowed their eyes, it seems that they are really here Gables ( Mosshoku ) It seems that they only handle ink. I couldn’t wipe off my disappointment, and I dropped my shoulders and shook my head.

“If you haven’t made it, it’s better to buy it at a store than order it here?”

“Oh, but … wait a minute! Why do you know?”

“Whatever you say, just because you’re interested, just remember”

Hiding behind Benno and answering, the parent slowly exhales. After crossing his arms and thinking for a while, he went back one step.

“Miss-chan, did you say there is more ink?”

“Yes, I said. Is it true?”

When I looked up a little and looked up at the parent, the parent shook his head with a bitter face.

“No … Miss-chan, what’s your name?”

“Gilberta’s Benno is a guardian. If you have a story, ask me. That’s it. That’s not disturbing.”

When Benno holds my mouth and stops driving himself, he picks me up and returns a spear.

For me who was holding up Benno’s back, the gaze of his master was thrown from the front.

“… It ’s Gilberta. I understand.”

Leave the ink workshop and head to the wood workshop. On the way, I was receiving Benno’s sermon.

“What do you mean … suddenly?”

“Huh? I just checked the type of ink?”

“It’s a little more … Oh, it’s impossible for you”

I didn’t intend to sell the fight, but I think I just talked about it moderately. But what else do you say here because there are no ink types? I don’t think that ink or printing ink can be understood.

“I was expecting it when I heard that there was one kind of ink, but it was made gallic ( ) 』It was only ink.”

Curry ( Mossy ) Inks were commonly used in Europe It is. Widely used because of its ease of manufacture, durability, and high water resistance. Unlike ink, it has the advantage that it adheres well to writing on parchment and cannot be erased by rubbing or washing.

However, since iron is mixed and oxidized, the dried ink is entangled between the fibers and the writing surface is corroded. Compared to parchment, plant paper is faster to corrode, and in some decades or years, there may be holes in the letters.

It can be said that there is a problem with using it for newborn babies and books that you want to keep. Trombe paper, which does not burn easily, seems to be nothing more than iron oxidation, but this time it is too expensive to raise.

“Is it better to make ink yourself?”

If you write on plant paper, ink may be more suitable. Curry ( Mosshoku ) Even if the ink is diluted, it becomes more neutral It may be good, but it can be a fight for vested interests. Curry ( Mossy ) It seems better to develop ink other than ink.

“Ann? Do you sell to the Ink Association from the front?”

“Why are you so excited? I’m not going to sell another fight”

…… I don’t think I’m more peaceful and comfortable than Benno-san, who is fighting.

“If you have a lot of ink, you just have to buy it and you’ve got to make it, but it’s troublesome, but basically I don’t like fighting.”

¡Benno screams with no objection to my objection and starts walking. I was thinking about ink by myself, as Benno walked.

“Ink” may be better for plant paper, but if you want to make a print, I’d like some ink with some viscosity. Wait a minute. “Is it possible to make some” oil paint “or” Iwa Paint “or” Iwa Paint “? The crayons get dirty when rubbed, so they are not suitable for prints and picture books.

Together with a mother who said, “You may be interested in this?” During the Reino period Carved ( Mosshoku ] 19459098] I have made ink, oily paints and crayons, but I was able to buy all these materials at the store. Here, it is difficult to prepare equipment and materials.

…… Crayons are hardened in lipstick and lip balm cases. That’s the case with sealed containers for painting, but what should I use here?

“Hey, Lutz. What are you talking about?”

“Because what you’re thinking is leaking out of your mouth, you just have to listen to it. Until you get an answer in your own way.”

“… Is that so”

Regardless of what you make, it is difficult to align the pigments. I wonder if I can only collect cocoons again, just as I did with pencils.

“Well, unlike the past, now glue ( Niwa ) If you want to get wax, you’ll get it, so the conditions have changed a lot … “

Compared to when I didn’t have the money to buy a nail, it’s still easier to get the material. The difficulty level will surely be lower than that time.

“Hey, Lutz. It’s the same as on paper. If you don’t make a prototype for the time being, you wouldn’t know if you wanted something like this?”

When I ask Lutz to get out of Benno’s shoulder, Lutz gives up his shoulder.

“… Did you decide? What kind of ink would you make?”

“I’m going to make something from one end that will be the ink for the prints. I made a picture book because it was the best.”

When I told Lutz that we would do our best together, Lutz exhaled. “Did you not give up the picture book yet?”

“Your baby is a gift from your sister? You can’t give up?”

“… Is it right? I thought I was finally settled down, but it seems to be busy again”

Talking so, Lutz laughed as if he was in trouble, but as he found a reward.
