On August 13, Jin D. performed maintenance on the returned <110.
Nothing was wrong with them, but they had some dirt and grime on them, so he cleaned them up using <.
Of course, we could have let the < do it together, but that was our choice. Of course, he could have had <> do it, but he was more or less satisfied with Jin D's work, though not Jin himself.
"Now all we need is a bridge. ......"
The construction of the channel, which was not there before, made it inconvenient to go to and from the other side of the river.
The width of the channel is about 3 meters, so an adult might be able to jump over it, but it would be dangerous.
Therefore, Jin D thought it would be better to build a bridge every few tens of meters.
The problem was the material for the bridges.
"Can we bring it from a little farther away ......?"
Jin D thought that a wooden bridge would require three to ten logs of about five meters in length, laid side by side.
"I guess I could buy them on the continent of Pandor."
It would be a good source of income for the Principality of Mercana, he thought.
So he decided to send < to the Pandor continent immediately.
After arriving at the Pandor continent, we can use the warp gate on board to get there.
Jin was going to go by himself.
"I want to know what's going on in the village of Taj.
This is the reason why he wanted to go there by himself.
He had not been to Tazy village since May, when he and Katya visited there and helped with the reconstruction.
Jin thought, "This is a good opportunity for me to see how the reconstruction is going.
Jin thought, "This is a good opportunity for me to see how the reconstruction is going.

Using a transporter, <> arrived over the village of Tadzie before noon on the 13th.
Jin and Reiko boarded the plane at the warp gate.
Under the control of Hope, <> lands in a vacant lot on the outskirts of the village.
Everyone saw the huge flying object coming down, and many villagers came to see what was going on.
Among them was the village chief, Sergei,
"Mr. Mayor! It's me!
Jin shouted loudly.
"Oh, Jin-kun!
Sergei recognized Jin and waved his hand.
It's been a long time, hasn't it?
"Yes, it's been a while."
The other villagers, who had been watching him from afar, also noticed this exchange,
"Oh! It's Jin, isn't it?
"Ah, Jin-san!
and so on, rushing to him as soon as they recognized him as Jin.
"But you've come on a great ride again, haven't you?
The village head marveled at the sight of .
"Yes, I was just looking to buy some lumber.
"Oh, lumber?"
"Actually, across the sea in the Principality of Norway, ......"
Jin explained that he needed a large amount of lumber to build a bridge over the canal.
"I see. Then we have quite a bit of lumber in stock."
Jin decided to change his plans, thinking that sawn lumber would be more suitable for building a proper bridge than round timbers.
"Not only in our village, but I'm sure there are stocks in neighboring villages as well."
Sergei said that they had thought of building more houses and renovating them as part of the reconstruction, but since Jin had come last time and fixed the houses with engineering magic, and since then they had received support from , they had a surplus of lumber.
"In that case, I would be happy to purchase it."
* * * *
As a result, we were able to purchase wood not only in the village of Tazy, but also in the villages of Fan and Novella, so we were able to get a good amount of wood.
"Mr. Jin, you will stay the night, right?"
Helga, the daughter of the village chief, said to me.
"Yes, I think so. I'm going to ...... see the northern administrator first."
After the fact, I realized that it would be a good idea to talk to the Northern Administrator of the Merkana Autonomous Region.
"Oh, he's not here right now, is he?"
"What?"
"After Jin-san came last time, <> did a lot of work to help us, and that administrator was warned..."
"Oh, ...... I think you said something about a gong."
"Yeah. Gone Maui von Keima. The Gorn was warned by the person from <> and was taken away without any further notice, and his replacement has not arrived.
Jin recalled. He was a rather arrogant man who changed his attitude when he saw the person he was talking to.
If that was all, it would have been acceptable, but according to Helga's story, he had been making a lot of money and had been removed from his post.
"The village heads are supposed to take over for him while he's gone, so it's all right.
"So that's how it is."
The wood purchases were made directly with the chiefs of each village, so there was no problem.
"So we can relax now, can't we?"
"Yes, we can."
"Okay. Tell me all about it.
Helga wanted to hear many stories about other countries from Jin.
Jin was also curious about how the village had changed since then, so they decided to talk about various things during dinner.
* * * * * * * * *
"...... So, Inessa gave birth to a boy, did she?"
"Yes. <. Both mother and child are healthy. His name is Romano. She looks a lot like her mother, Inessa.
Inessa is the wife of KaChea's brother, who is now working for , and was in the last month of pregnancy when Jin arrived in May.
When Jin came to the village in May, she was in her last month of pregnancy, so he left her medical automata <> in the village.
Like other automata/golems that Jin had made, <> had a built-in manacam, which kept in touch with the old man, so Jin had heard that Inessa had given birth to a child.
However, he was so busy that he almost forgot about it.
Hearing it here again made him realize what had happened.
I am glad to hear it. Is ......<> helping you?"
Helga nodded.
"Yes, very much. We have a healer from <> taking turns at the fan village now, but we can always count on him in case of sudden injuries."
"Well, I guess I'll leave some more for you."
This time, Jin had thought about retrieving if he had had enough, but he decided to leave it there for a while longer if it would be useful to the village.
"Yeah, but I'll check it out later."
Since he had not said anything about how he was feeling ......, Jin thought he would see for himself, though he was sure there would be no problem with <>'s self-check.
After that, Jin told Helga about the stories of the four duchies and the countries of the conference.
It is an aside that both Sergei and Isak suffered from hangover the next day, not to mention Jin, who is a compound body.
