Helping with Adventurer Party Management

"I mean, we build ten waterwheel huts together, that's what you mean?

Craig's been checking.

"That's right. Wheat will be received from other villages in (shaver) and floured using the power of the water wheel as it is. Think about efficiency, and I want it to be dense. Can you?

"Well, if you ask me if I can or can't, I can. I've never heard of that."

"Don't you?"

I've never seen or heard of it anywhere else.

Abel and Craig must probably have a lot of experience in building waterwheels in other territories as well.

Is there any risk in saying that the same thing still hasn't been done?

"In the first place, a water truck would be placed in the middle of a village or near a lord's castle, wouldn't it?

"What Craig is talking about is the conservation and right to use the waterwheel shed. The right to make flour using water wheels is a great right, so in the sight of churches, lords, we put people in charge from the clan, etc."

Water trucks cost money for construction, but also for operation and maintenance.

Besides, it's not easy to build a trustworthy 24-hour system that just charges and manages properly against the temptation of villagers to "let me use a water wheel for a second" in this era without surveillance cameras and such.

So I guess the idea would be to get people out of the lord's body.

In other words, it's managerial.

"I see, I can understand that"

However, if I consulted in the original world and started a shoe workshop in this world, I don't think that management by people is a good management method in terms of how business ethics (governance) works and is difficult to expand (leverage).

In the first place, the positioning of the waterwheel cabin is not the right of the lord, etc.

What I'm about to bring up in my territory is a device industry called the flour mill industry with a large number of water wheels.

Equipped with common parts, the construction of large quantities of water wheels at a time can dramatically reduce the cost per unit and maintenance costs. In addition, building a system that allows 24-hour management of water vehicles also improves productivity per hour.

By bringing administrators together, administrative costs can also be lowered.

"Pursuing profits of scale from large-scale investments, reducing maintenance costs through common standard components, increasing productivity per hour through building a 24-hour management system, reducing management costs through management commonalities..."

Claudio is in a hurry to write down my explanation.

"What do you say, Mr. Abel? Is there something wrong?

It shouldn't be wrong as a concept, but from an expert's point of view, you might find some holes.

"No, no! Hell no! I see, it's a wise eye! Maintenance of the water wheel can be costly, but if the standard of the parts is the same, you should produce large quantities at once! All you have to do is store it properly and replace the broken parts!

"Yeah, because in the worst case scenario, I wouldn't mind getting parts from another water wheel."

It is a so-called nicotine maintenance. Though not very much praised.

"But this..."

Abel, who had been excited until then, suddenly frowned, as she came up with something.

"What have you done?

"That... that's something you can't imitate in another person's territory. It's called scale, it's called concept..."

As technologists, you thought that even if the correctness of the concept was acknowledged, technologists like ourselves would not be able to make proposals that have stepped so far into industrial measures.

"Right. This is a business, so we need to do something that cannot be imitated elsewhere. That would be competition, wouldn't it?

So I made the pair of technicians smile.
