"Regional Revitalization (地域振興(ちいきしんこう) or ......"
Regional revitalization, also called town revitalization or village revitalization.
"Agriculture, mining, and tourism should be considered first."
As for agricultural products, there is Kemeria oil, but it does not look very promising. This is because the area of arable land is small to begin with.
Mining is also unlikely.
The underground resources in Toka Village were mostly mined out about 200 years ago.
Of course, if you go deeper than 1,000 meters below the ground, you will find something, but it is not realistic to revitalize the village.
"Sightseeing is also ...... good."
The scenery is not particularly nice.
The hot spring had stopped running. It is possible to dig it up again, but if it does not run, that is the end of it.
Unlike the village of Kaina, there is no source of hot spring water, so this will be difficult.
"Now all we have to do is to create a specialty product. ......"
Yuzo looked at Jin with difficulty.
"We don't have good craftsmen, and most things can be made elsewhere.
He was right. <, it will be imitated soon.
"Hmmm ......"
We were at a loss.
"The only thing left is to find a specialty."
This way, they would not be easily imitated, but it would not be so easy to find.
He was at a standstill.
"Then, the only other thing I can think of is something made by ...... secret technique.
There are many techniques that cannot be deduced from the finished product ....... The question is whether there are engineers or craftsmen who can master them.
"All the good craftsmen have left for King's Landing, haven't they?
"......"
Jin was exhausted.
In the first place, if he could get by with just a day or so of advice, he would have no trouble at all.
"I guess it would be agricultural products. I'd like to grow something that can be produced here and is popular.
"Will that be the case ......?"
Yuzo Mayaka's shoulders slumped.
It seems that the discussion with Jin has reaffirmed how little value this village has. Rhodes sensed this and spoke up to follow up.
"Don't get too discouraged, Mr. Village Chief. It took us many years to become self-sufficient in food.
"Thank you. ......"
"Also, it is important to train and secure human resources. How about giving them a little tax break or some other preferential treatment to reduce the exodus of human resources?
"I see. ......"
He could not produce any results, but after talking with Jin and the others, he seemed to be able to get a better idea of what to do.
"And then..."
Jin said what he had just thought of.
"There is a large area in Toka village. How about we turn it into an airfield and eventually invite tourists for sightseeing flights?
"Oh!
The mayor bites his tongue.
"At that time, the Nordic Federation can cooperate with you.
Jin implied that he would be willing to provide a new type of flying machine.
"That's right. We would be very grateful if you could help us then.
The village head was surprised again at the end, because Jin had specified the clan leader of as the contact person.

The next morning, Jin and his group departed for Alban, the capital of the Kingdom of Klein, as scheduled.
Thank you for everything you have done for us. Please come again."
Yuzo Mayaka said, and even wrote a letter of introduction to the inn .
"It was quite worthwhile, even though we missed our schedule by half a day," Jin said.
Rhodes nodded his head when Jin said this.
Yes, it was. The village chief was quite a character. I could feel how much he cares about the village.
"But still... ......"
Jin looks at the in his hand. He had refused the mayor's offer and received four of them.
