Reinhardt seems to be interested in it. He likes such things.
"What kind of race is it? Single-seater? Or remote control?"
"We did remote control on Onogoro Island, so how about a one-man race with a golem or an automata?
At Jin's suggestion, Reinhardt is even more enthusiastic.
"That's a good idea. Jin and I will organize the first competition with some volunteers. We just need to see how many people we can attract.
If we can get enough people to show up, we can make some money, and maybe the next time we have a tournament, there will be more people who want to participate.
I think I'll sponsor the first one.
Jin was aware that he had a lot of dead money in his pocket and that it would not be good for the world economy if he did not spend it.
"But if you do, you will get more money back than you invested.
That's the way it usually is. No sponsor likes to invest in an event that will lose money.
"I see. ......"
If the event goes in the red, the next sponsor will not come along.
Then, Jin had the next best thing, or rather, the best idea.
"Maybe it would be better for the future if we find a business association that would be willing to sponsor us.
"Yes, that's right.
"Let's leave the sponsorship aside for now.
As for Jin, it is more suitable for him to think about the standard of airplanes.
"Yes, let's talk about airplanes.
And the same goes for Reinhardt.
"A golem to fly the plane, that's good."
"Yeah."
"What about the airframe?"
"I guess so."
Jin and Reinhardt are torn. After all, the most common flying machines are balloons, airships, and blow floaters.
"I don't think a wind-powered blower would make for a very thrilling race, would it?
It's not going to be a maximum speed race or a last-minute dead heat ......," Reinhardt said.
"I think it's going to be more of a leisurely, relaxed race."
"I guess."
"But..."
Jin says.
"Depending on the rules and contents, it could be something interesting, don't you think?"
"Hmm, I see."
Although in a completely different genre, Jin once read a story called in a comic book.
It was a fishing manga.
In general, anglers who aim for big fish enjoy the process of catching them, including the pulling force.
The story was about "Tanago fishing" based on this.
Jin remembers that the story was about how to enjoy the process of catching small fish by using small <, although the Tanago is probably classified as the smallest fish to be fished. ...... The details are not clear, though, as it was a long time ago.
Anyway, Jin thought that even wind-powered floaters (blow floaters) could enjoy thrilling races if they tried.
(Even low-speed flight competitions were quite exciting.)
As Jin and Reinhardt were thinking about ......, Licia, Marcia, and Goose, who had been silent so far, interrupted them.
"It was fun to listen to Jin and Reinhardt's dialogue, but it's worthwhile to participate in a talk like this!
Goose's line expressed the sentiments of everyone present.
"I think it's possible to have a sweaty dead heat even if the speed is not fast enough," said Marcia.
Marcia said,
"Yes, yes. For example, we could keep the altitude under 5 meters.
Goose offers an idea.
"Well, 5 meters altitude surely sounds chilling," says Goose. But what if it crashes? Even if it is a golem, won't it destroy the blow floaters?
"Then, we can put up a low altitude ward. If you touch the wards, you'll be disqualified, though.
Saki presented his idea.
<
"Since wind-powered blow floaters are affected by wind, how about covering the stadium with a wind shield?"
"No, it would be interesting to compete with the wind blowing in the opposite direction.
How should we let the spectators watch?
"How should we let the spectators watch?" "I think a would be the way to go.
And many other opinions were expressed.
It seems that everyone loves this kind of discussion.
And Licia, who is the originator of this discussion..,
"I don't know about the technology, but if you want to attract tourists to Toka village, you need to improve the infrastructure. I don't know about technology, but if we want to attract tourists to Toka village, we need to improve the infrastructure.
I said, "Oh, yes, indeed.
"Oh, it's true, it's not easy to accept visitors out of the blue, is it?
Bina sounded convinced.
"What about the specialties?"
"<> has become so common that it can't really be called a specialty, you said."
Jin recalled a story he had heard during a previous visit to Toka village.
"I heard that Kemeria oil is a specialty. Oh, that's right."
Seeing the look on Reinhardt's face, Jin remembered another specialty.
"Oh, by the way, the red wine is delicious.
"Huh?"
Sure enough, Reinhardt took a bite.
"I remember you said it was three years old.
"I see. I'd like to try it, but if it's three years old, there's a good chance it'll be well received.
It could be a good sales pitch for tourists, Reinhardt said.
"And then there's the hot spring, but it's not running anymore, is it?
"Have they dried up? ......?"
Licia said regretfully, but Jin shook his head.
"I didn't have time at the time, so I left it as it was, but considering the underground water veins, it shouldn't have dried up."
The hot springs in the village of Kaina are still flowing, Jin said.
"It's possible that the pipes that let the hot spring water in are clogged."
This can happen when hot spring water precipitates. So it needs to be cleaned out from time to time,
"Hmm, I don't think the hot spring there has that kind of quality.
"Hmm. It was a simple spring, and there was no sulfur smell, I think."
Erza was present when Jin dug the hot spring in Toka village.
"Oh, but I think that spring was shallow.
"What? But I think Jin-san said that the water vein he dug for us was about 250 meters deep.
"Me? I don't remember ......."
At this point, Reiko gave advice from the side.
"Father, that was after you returned ......400 years ago, so it's natural that your father doesn't remember it now."
"What? Oh, is that so?"
"Oh, yes, that's right!"
Jin dug a deep well and secured a water source in Toka village after the original Jin returned 400 years ago, so the duplicate Jin did not know about it.
On the other hand, the homunculus Lysia remembers it.
Let me digress.
"So the water source is deep, but the hot spring was shallow and may have dried up?
