Chapter 1-9: Volume 1 - Chapter 9 – HANNA IS STRONG?
Now September with a lingering summer heat, Roland arrived . When Roland and Eric saw the stove,
「… I can’t even be surprised anymore」
「I’d believe it if Jin-san said he was the Head Magic Engineer of the capital」
such mutters leaked from their mouth . Jin had them do an underwriting agreement for the manufacturing method of the stove as well as the magic stones . This way Kaina Village had a way to acquire foreign currency not just from flour .
「Is this all?」
In addition, Jin still had something more to say, and focusing his tired eyes,
「No, your horse-drawn wagon or in particular, your wagon, could I perhaps see it?」
saying that, Roland gave a puzzled look .
「My wagon? What is it this time?」
And of course he would questioned it .
「I was thinking about how to have your wagon move more quickly」
and when Jin expressed his thoughts,
「Well if I reduced the load it would be able to move quickly, but by reducing the goods I transport, I won’t make a profit」
so Roland said . But that wasn’t what Jin had meant to do .
「No, no, not that kind of thing, I meant remodeling the wheel so it could turn faster」
was what he explained . The two knew intuitively that there was something to discuss, and Jin took the two to Martha’s house .
「Eh? Onii-chan and the Oji-chan from the shop, what is it?」
Martha wasn’t home and Hanna was watching the house, Jin thought it was a good time,
「Yeah, I’d like to show your bicycle trailer for a bit」
he told Hanna .
「My bicycle trailer? Okay, that’s fine . I’ll bring it out now!」
saying that, Hanna headed to the shed and immediately returned with the bicycle trailer . Pulling it with one hand while running . Seeing that kind of thing, Roland and Eric were surprised .
「Th-this scene is somehow amazing…」
「Yeah… that little girl is strong」
The face of the two had stiffened a little while Jin began to laugh,
「Now now, pull yourself together for a bit and observe」
saying that, he passed them Hanna’s bicycle trailer .
「Hn… . . ? What is this, this lightness!?」
The difference was immediately noticed . He explained what effects the bearings had . Also, he raised and spun the wheel, and seeing that it continued to turn for a long time,
「I see… I now understood what Jin-san meant . So did you want to equip our wagon with this?」
「Yes . How about it?」

「By all means please do so」
So he immediately moves things to the wagon and switched the wheels, axles, and bearings . He also attached a rubber tyre .
「Umm, Jin-san, what is that you attached to the wheel?」
「Oh, this is a rubber tyre」
「Rubber tyre?」
「Well, try testing it out」
So Roland and Eric got on the wagon and Jin pulled it to show them . The effects of the ball bearings were wonderful, Jin could pull it comfortably without much strength . Once again, they were amazed with the improvement of riding with rubber tyres .
「Onii-chan, let me do it」
she said, seeing that it looked fun, so he swapped with Hanna,
「I am… STRONG!!!」
saying those words, the two riding the wagon were engrossed .
「A, ahahahahahaha…」
The two, Roland and Eric were completely engrossed . Well the bearings were definitely effective .
With the display of the improved ride from the bearing and rubber tyre, they were able to understand .
「Jeez, Jin-san, your remodeling is amazing . Do you really not want money for it?」

「Yes, but in exchange, I would like you to increase the frequency of your visits to this village」
Hearing that, Roland took on the face of a merchant,
「I see, so this is for an early investment」
He was able to correctly understand Jin’s intent .
「Yes, well…」
「If the performance is convincing, the stove will sell, and the magic stones would need to be purchased . I understand, suddenly coming once a month would be impossible, but if I put in the effort I can come twice every three months . 」
So it was decided and having fulfilled his original objective, Jin was relieved . However this time from Roland,
「By the way Jin-san, that round thing the kids are playing with, by chance is that…?」
Jin looked to where he pointed . There he saw children throwing a dodge ball .
「Yes, that’s right . It’s called a ball, it’s made from the same material as the tyre」
「Hmm, could you also sell that?」
「Oh, yes, I don’t mind」
Because of the 『Tea Tree』 in the forest, he now knew where to look for a lot of resin to collect .
That’s why the rubber ball will also be sold . The manufacturing method is difficult this time so it’s only the finished product, the rubber ball . For now he made 50 each of baseballs, handballs, and dodge balls .
Upon finishing the negotiations, Eric began to grow restless . Jin could somehow guess the reason,

「Going to Erume River is refreshing, let’s go together」
He invited Eric . Unable to turn it down, Eric and Jin headed to the river, and upon reaching the river, a joyful look coloured his face .
That was because in Erume River, the swimsuit figure of Barbara was floating with a swim ring .
「J-Jin-san, what is that thing she’s holding onto?」
「Oh, that’s a swim ring, it allows people who can’t swim to be able to float」
Whether she heard the conversation of the two or not, Barbara found Eric and waved her hand . Eric had a face that wanted to immediately enter the water, but he didn’t have a swimsuit . So Jin,
「Eric, if you want to swim, there’s a shed over there, are you going to get changed?」
saying that, Jin passed over a new swimsuit he secretly brought . He had prepared it because he thought it would become like this .
「Th- thank you very much!」
So Eric snatched it and dashed to the shed to change .
Eric and Barbara swam for the rest of the day like that . Eric did not help with arranging the goods and Barbara ignored her chores and instead they played . The two that got along well were scolded .
Summer was now ending with the day .
