I put on hold whether to be independent or join a group for now.

First, preparations.

After I do the preparations my new cost estimation will likely differ from my previous one.

"First would be to gather feet shapes."

"What is a foot shape?"

In this world, the concept of shoes is terribly late. Well, even my original world the modern shoe only came around in the 19th century. So, it is not strange.

Only the middle and upper cla.s.s buy expensive shoes but, they do not walk long distances. The commoners wear sandals or go barefoot.

In short there is no need for strong shoes that can comfortably walk long distances.

"It is like the paper pattern on clothes."

"What paper pattern?"

Certainly, paper is expensive so, I don't think a clothing shop in the third-cla.s.s district would have it.

Although I am not interested in clothes this should still apply.

I just hope Sarah also does not know.

"I will copy down people's feet shapes on a wooden board with a charcoal stick. A drawing of the sole and side of the foot, left and right separately. I want to collect data from 100 people. Then decide on the shape and size of the shoe. We will make a single size shoe as a trial to fit the majority of people. Fortunately, I do not have to go through the trouble of finding people, as we can just use the people that have used my consulting service and promise them a discount."

"Perhaps, the activity itself will also act as advertising via rumours. I mean you are trying to do something amazing. I am amazed by you."

Sarah sighed for what was seemed like hundredth time.
