How a Hero Lives as a Writer

129 – Clothes can be copied? (2)

It was already evening after the tailing of the guests from the kingdom of Arcas.

We had a light dinner at a nearby restaurant, and finally decided to go home after visiting the studio.

When we visited the workshop where the dwarves were staying, everyone was so busy that they didn’t seem to have time to deal with us.

In a corner of the workshop, dozens of people gathered for additional production of hot air balloons.

This is because it required a lot of manpower to make a goofy, a balloon-like structure in a hot air balloon.

“I think I saw that person somewhere….”

“I am Gibson, who works at the forge in the royal castle.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Ochlia used to make a living from the by-products of monsters.

But lately I’ve gotten away from that kind of rough stuff, and there’s been talk about the sound of iron beating in the blacksmith’s shop.

I never thought I would be sewing here.

Since he was a nobleman who sewed leather armor that could block spears, he must be a sewing specialist….

“Are you here?”

As we were looking around the workshop, Kruger approached us, stroking his beard.

Angelica hurriedly let go of her arm and started acting as if nothing had happened.

Kryuger frowned with a strange expression on his face and sighed.

“How did you know?”

Me and Angelica have changed our clothes and appearance.

So I thought you wouldn’t notice.

“You can’t become a blacksmith without that kind of eye.”

“Oh….”

Are you cool?

“Somehow, the studio is very crowded. Are you making a rope over there?”

In one corner, there was a group making ropes.

For safety reasons, hot air balloons were tied with ropes to prevent them from flying beyond a certain orbit.

It must have been the rope used at that time.

“Anyway, since everything is done manually, it takes a lot of time.”

As Kryuger was sighing, a little commotion came from the entrance.

When I looked to see who had come, a priest accompanied by a paladin was entering the workshop.

I decided to quietly step back and act as a visitor to the workshop.

“God bless you, brother.”

“Hmm. What did you come for?”

“Could you customize the hot air balloon you are making at the studio so that more people can ride it?”

“What if there are a lot of people?”

“It is large enough for 10 armed knights to ride.”

“The weight includes food, right?”

“Yes.”

“You mean to make something that can actually ride 15 people.”

Kryuger looked at one side of the studio and sighed.

“I don’t have enough time yet, so it must be difficult.”

“Please, please. It is necessary for the investigation of the Land of Beginnings.”

Why is Taecho Village here?

Is something wrong?

“Can I stop by the cathedral on the way?”

“Yes.”

If something happened, shouldn’t we check it right away?

I looked around the workshop and passed the time before heading to the cathedral.

As we entered the church, the priest greeted us with a hint that we had just arrived.

Then he told a story that was more important than he thought.

“An area that cannot be entered because of the barrier?”

“Yes. Currently, the expedition is said to be stranded.”

The expedition team set out to find clues to the original village.

It is said that their periodic report describes an area that cannot be crossed because it is surrounded by barriers.

So, under the judgment that if it is not the land, the sky may be possible, he is thinking of making a hot air balloon that the expedition can ride.

“But I think it will be difficult because the studio is so busy.”

“Hmm.”

A visitor regretted not selling Edward Russell’s clothes.

Blacksmiths who were sewing to make a goofy for a hot air balloon.

It reminds me of something….

“They say you need a bigger goofy to carry a lot of people.”

“A little bigger goofy… It will take a lot of time.”

“Yes. Maybe the search will be postponed until next year.”

Winter is too dangerous to explore.

So if you can’t build a hot air balloon now, you might have to wait until next year.

As the priest said that, he let out a sigh dripping with regret.

So, in the end, hot air balloons can be made quickly, right?

Remembered.

The steam engine didn’t just appear.

When it comes to the steam engine, it is the Industrial Revolution, and when it comes to the Industrial Revolution, we cannot leave out the textile industry.

How are Mare’s clothes made?

Basically, it is a method of making clothes and displaying them roughly in a store.

But the case of nobles is a little different.

At a clothing store, a designer or a pattern maker makes patterns for clothes.

The pattern is then sent along with the fabric to the house where the clothes were ordered with detailed figures written down.

Then, a designer hired by an aristocratic family completes the garment by sewing stitch by stitch using patterned paper and fabric.

This is quite inefficient….

But you’ve been neglecting it until now?

Make a spinning machine and make a sewing machine.

“We will be able to investigate within this year.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“You will find out soon.”

I drank all the tea in front of me and stood up.

After saying that there was no need to see her off, she headed for the door of the cathedral.

“Ah, saint. What’s going on here….”

“I just stopped by.”

I passed by and told Teresa to enjoy the festival and left the cathedral.

“I don’t even know how to make a spinning machine, but I know how a sewing machine works.”

“A sewing machine?”

“Yes.”

The era of needlework is about to come to an end.

If you have a sewing machine, will your clothes be copied?

A sewing machine is a strange thing.

The threaded needle just pierces the fabric, but mysteriously, the stitching is strong.

I looked it up because it was so amazing, but the principle was surprisingly simple.

Of course, if I ask you to make it, you have to bow your head and say, ‘Send me.’

But I’m not the one making it, is it?

If you just explain the principle, the four dwarves at the making workshop will take care of it.

I just need to provide inspiration.

First of all, the sewing machine needs electricity, but there is no electricity here, so I have to do it manually, right?

It seems that you can adopt the manual method that appeared in the black rubber shoes.

Wouldn’t other people improve the way it works by stepping on the pedal later?

***

The next day.

I went to the workshop and handed Kruger a piece of paper about the sewing machine.

Then Kruger stroked his beard with a look of interest.

“Oh, you’re back with something interesting again.”

“Can you make it?”

“Isn’t it far easier than a steam engine or a typewriter?”

“Easy?”

“Then is this difficult?”

Cry with the door!

“Umm, a sewing machine….”

Krueger stared at the people making goofy hot air balloons from a corner of the studio.

Then I turned my gaze to look at the people making the rope.

“If that also uses a machine….”

Kryuger muttered as if something came to his mind and began preparing to draw the blueprint.

It looks like you’ve entered craftsman mode, so I can’t disturb you anymore.

I left the studio with Angelica and headed to a nearby cafe.

“It feels like common sense is collapsing.”

“Uh huh, am I Edra?”

“… I feel good.”

“From now on, it will be a way to design and print the clothes directly in the store. If a noble orders clothes, the finished clothes will be shipped home.”

I don’t even know how to make a spinning machine.

Something seemed complicated at first glance, so I didn’t investigate that far.

However, if the thing called the sewing machine is revealed to the world, people’s perceptions will also change.

A tool that makes sewing convenient has come out.

Then, wouldn’t it be nice to have a tool that makes weaving easier?

I’m sure you’ll have that kind of thinking.

The spinning machine is very likely to be invented.

Hmm… Something upside down

Originally, it feels like spinning machines come first and then sewing machines.

ㅡ Spinning machines still exist, don’t they?

When the sewing machine comes out, the supply will not be able to keep up with the way it used to be.

The need for a new spinning machine will come to the fore.

These merchants are incredibly good at smelling money.

Why don’t you research a new spinning machine yourself to meet the supply?

ㅡ Umm… Maybe not.

Anyway, judging from Kruger’s confident expression, I think it will be finished in about three days.

What will happen when the sewing machine comes out?

Maybe there will be a fuss?

I am really worried that people will flock to the place where people get hit and run over.

Still, I still have time, so I think it will be okay….

ㅡ Didn’t I say that when the sewing machine came out, Edward Russell’s goods would be copied?

Yes. That’s how it should be.

Even now, you often see people walking into a clothing store and leaving empty-handed, sighing, right?

Most of them want to buy Edward Russell’s suits.

But clothing store owners want to make clothes, but they can’t because they can’t afford it.

It’s hard to meet the quantity ordered by the nobles.

But what if a sewing machine appeared at this time?

Then what… The clothes are being copied.

The suits worn by Edward Russell are not just goods, but clothing.

The clothes everyone wears?

Couldn’t that be called a new fashion?

Now you might see even nobles wearing suits.

ㅡ Could it really be so?

The clothes worn by nobles in Marais are similar to those of the nobles in The Witcher.

To me, it felt a bit old-fashioned.

As expected, the suit is neat and cool, right?

“At this point, I need to call all the tailors who run the shop.”

“Are you going to the royal castle?”

“That’s right.”

Because it would be faster to ask the chancellor for help than to call for me.

“I will accompany you.”

Your impression changes quite a bit just by changing the way you speak.

It’s amazing.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes.”

After making a sewing machine, there is no need to advertise separately.

Because it’s direct bread if you show the scene of tailors making clothes using sewing machines.

Maybe rumors will spread all over the world in an instant.

There may be nobles flying to Aucklia using moonlight stones to get their hands on a sewing machine as soon as possible.

It makes me happy.

We headed to the royal castle and briefly explained to the chancellor what a sewing machine was.

After that, I asked to set up a booth in the plaza so that I could demonstrate the sewing machine.

The chancellor promised to set up as many booths as I wanted, wherever I wanted.

Ooh, it’s easy to work because you’re friendly with people in power.

……

…

After five days, the sewing machine appeared in the world.
