VF 076 – The Lucky Star (Ore of Luck)

 Simplicity  Web Novel [ ウェブ小説]  July 9, 2022 4 Minutes

I can’t help but helplessly laugh by myself upon seeing the premedieval set up of the mines once we arrived.

Seeing everything being done by hands makes me realize once again manual labors’ inefficiency.

We can just only grit our teeth due to our lack of human resources that have the appropriate skills in mining.

This is still the situation that we are in despite me doing my best to reach out to my friends and acquaintances, even to those who were outside the kingdom, asking for them to teach me the know how of properly doing mining.

I guess no matter what our relationship is, trade secrets and knowledge are things one can’t easily give out to others.

As a reincarnator, I would really like to utilize my knowledge using modern technology.

I really do.

Except that I hold no other interest back then but desserts and sweets so I don’t remember reading anything even about a single ore.

[The only noble who’ll travel this far into the mines to inspect it would probably only you, Calis-sama.] (Miguel)

[You think so] (Calis)

Miguel says so as he walks behind me.

[I’ve heard before that most nobles aren’t really that interested in their own territories.

The majority of aristocrats mainly seek power, wealth, and vanity, or so I learned.] (Miguel)

[That’s a bit too judgmental, I have to say…] (Calis)

[That’s what Father-san said back in the church.

Calis-sama is the only noble who’ll go to such extent for his terrirtory and subjects, he said.] (Miguel)

[So it’s him, huh…] (Calis)

For some reason, I can picture the sickly priest in my head warmly smiling but… Perhaps he holds some deep hate to nobles in general

 

A few moments later, I met the mine supervisor and told him that me and Miguel would try mining with our own hands.

But…

[Calis-sama… what sort of ore is that in your hand] (Miguel)

[I don’t have any idea either…] (Calis)

A rather surprising turn of events already unfolded just after I swung my pickaxe.

I subtly look at the mine supervisor in hopes he might have any idea about it but he just shook his head in return.

I was thinking that perhaps I am the only one who doesn’t have any idea about this white ore as it shines brightly in my hands.

I looked up at what ores are there in the market before making this trip and I’m sure there’s nothing like this ore from what I’ve read and learned.

So that means…

[Calis-sama… perhaps you discovered a new kind of ore] (Miguel)

[You think so too, huh…] (Calis)

[T-that’s nice and all but… this will be a big deal fer sure…] (Mining Supervisor)

I know, right There’s also the processing of the ore itself, but just looking at it, I believe using this ore into an accessory will fetch a fairly high price.

Still, the fact that I was the one who discovered it will cause a ruckus.

I just accidently found it nearby, that I’m sure.

But what am I suppose to think when I, someone who has no experience in mining, was able to discover a new mineral right immediately after I arrived when there’s already mine supervisors here who should have known this place like the back of his hand.

I’m even tempted right now to call other mining supervisors wondering if they’re just being negligent in their jobs that they were not able to discover this ore after all this time.

What a mess.

STOP! No, I shouldn’t be like that.

I should take this chance as an opportunity and think positive about it.

[I’d like for this ore to be processed right this instant but… can I leave it to you] (Calis)

[Y-yes! Immediately! (Mine Supervisor)

[Also, call all the people inside who can work in this area for me.

I’d like to get an estimate of how much of this ore we can extract.] (Calis)

[Understood!] (Mine Supervisor)

I overlook the movements inside the mine after giving my instructions.

After observing for a while, I can ascertain that there’s a significant amount of that white ore that we can extract in this area alone so it only boils down to the processing.

But then, the mine supervisor returns and shows me the processed ore.

Seeing it myself, I can’t help but gasp in awe.

The ore that was covered in rocks and dust earlier now shines so translucently beautiful and pure.

It reminds me of the pearl necklaces that I saw in my previous life.

If it’s this ore, then…

[Process all the ores that you’ll be able to extract today and send it to this store.] (Calis)

[Calis-sama Can I ask what you are planning to do] (Miguel)

[What else, a present, of course.] (Calis)

The store should come up with the design.

Then I should set up a distribution system while I’m on it.

It’ll make things more busy but I’d keep these things first to myself.

Then, once it’s revealed, let’s call this ore that gave me such satisfaction as the Lucky Star (Ore of Luck).
