Carpenters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s always a shortage of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you have the skills to work as a carpenter, you should definitely become one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You could set up your own workshop or join an existing one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way, I can introduce you to the right people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you don’t have carpentry skills, just being able to carry heavy loads can earn you a decent wage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially if you belong to a physically larger race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strong body is always useful when building houses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re interested, let me know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next on the list—waitresses and waiters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a job where you serve customers and act as the bridge between them and the restaurant, earning tips in the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How much you make depends entirely on your ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That said, the more popular establishments won’t hire just anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They need to ‘trust’ that you’ll do the job properly and won’t cause trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some places even require a guarantor before they’ll take you on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s only natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, some restaurants don’t allow tipping and instead offer fixed wages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the ramen shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, the ones on Ramen Street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delicious, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those places are easier to get hired at, but they have high expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they pay wages, they won’t tolerate sloppy work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone who slacks off gets fired fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kuro and Yuki?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can introduce you to that place too, but you’ll need to pass a test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a popular cafe, and a lot of people want to work there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why they only hold hiring exams once or twice a year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re interested, I can let you know when the next one is coming up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, right. Bronze Café doesn’t require a test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just an interview with the assistant manager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that place has a unique atmosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it doesn’t suit you, you won’t last long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another popular job… would be a transportation type.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right, carrying goods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Village Five may be small, but it was built in the mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terrain is full of slopes, making it a hassle to move things around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This job is all about helping with that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All you have to do is transport cargo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sounds appealing, doesn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re fast on your feet or strong enough to carry heavy loads, companies will value you highly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, you could even land a job with a company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s a promising career, isn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, nothing is ever that easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To work in transportation, you need to be somewhat familiar with Village Five.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If someone tells you to deliver a package somewhere, but you don’t know where that is, you won’t be able to do the job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re working with others, you might manage somehow, but if you can’t move independently, it’ll be a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why, while transportation jobs are in high demand, they aren’t easy to recommend to newcomers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re looking to make money, how about garbage collection or disposal work?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not many people want to do it, but it’s a necessary job, so the pay is good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the village itself manages the work, payments are made on time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re small-bodied, there’s also sewer tunnel cleaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, you actually go inside the tunnels and clean them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pay is shockingly high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, normally, slimes handle that job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They do a great job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the acting village chief once raised a concern—what happens if the slimes stop working?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now they’re trying to establish a cleaning system that doesn’t rely on slimes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The problem is, there aren’t many volunteers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll say it again—the pay is shockingly high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s go over some unusual job opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, modeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have you heard that the underground shopping district of Village Five is called Fashion Street?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s fairly well known, though.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, never mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>New clothing designs are made there, and your job would be to wear them while going about your daily life in the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right, just wear the clothes and live as usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, staying holed up indoors won’t cut it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole point is to show off the new designs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, you’ll need to be aware that people are always watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Acting rudely is out of the question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pay isn’t great, but it’s an easy job, don’t you think?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people even take new clothes as their reward instead of money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, swan trainer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’ve heard of the swan race, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This job involves training the swans that compete in those races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can’t just train them however you like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You need to assess each swan’s abilities and provide the necessary training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not something you can master right away, so this isn’t a job where you start making money immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since swan racing involves gambling, integrity is essential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if you can’t care for the swans properly, this isn’t the job for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, a lot of people are overly confident, saying 「I can do it」 and applying to be trainers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, I turn them down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The swan race is tied to the village and the shrine, so if I introduce the wrong person, I’ll be the one getting scolded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another unusual job would be working as….an extra or a backup dancer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extras appear in movies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right, you could be in one of those films.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pretty amazing, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, but not as the lead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lead roles require strict training and auditions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extras are there to make the main actors stand out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are hardly any lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don’t need much acting skill either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as you don’t stand around stiffly or overact, you’ll be fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just enough acting ability to avoid distracting from the leads is all that’s required.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pay is… low, but at least it makes for a good memory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, it’s low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people are even willing to pay to be in the movie, so the wages don’t go up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunate, but that’s how it is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for backup dancers, that job involves performing behind Five-kun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one has strict training and auditions, on par with landing a lead movie role.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it pays well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you become popular, you could even go independent and make a career out of dancing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of unusual jobs, there’s the Large Portion Ramen License Certifier!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did you know that some ramen shops require a license for ordering extra-large portions?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This job is about issuing the certification for that license.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, each shop handled it themselves, but since the certification process became too much trouble, they started outsourcing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All you have to do is confirm that a challenger has successfully finished the designated large portion ramen and then hand them their certification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simple, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You also get to build connections with ramen shop owners, which might let you try new menu items before anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pay isn’t great, though.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprisingly, there are still plenty of people who want the job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You wanna know what I think is the best job?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, that’s a tough one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I actually enjoy working here at the job placement office, so I don’t really think about it much…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if I had to recommend something to my own family, it’d be farming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, farming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Working in the fields.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s hard work, sure, but it’s stable. You can settle down, get married, and secure your future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No no no, I’m not lying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, I get it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re thinking, “No matter how hard I work, the nobles will just take everything in taxes, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the farmland around Village Five belongs to the village chief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That means you’re working under a commission system, not as a private landowner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, there’s no need to stress over taxes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if there’s a bad harvest, you’ll still get support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pay structure is simple: you get a base salary, plus bonuses based on the harvest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sounds reliable, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, since it’s directly tied to the village chief, it really feels like you’re contributing to Village Five.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it popular?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, people with farming experience before they moved here tend to apply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But younger folks… not so much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Village Five is full of distractions, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, I worry that in a few decades, we’ll have a real successor crisis in farming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why if I had to pick a job for my family, I’d recommend farming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN: I have been ill due to the cold temperatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorry.\u003C\u002Fp>",1657,"2026-06-05T23:08:41.452Z",1,"novelbin.me","69d2a3c49ab020d362d59d8cff0016922660d044ee92a9208028d73668633590","isekai-nonbiri-nouka-chapter-912","isekai-nonbiri-nouka-chapter-987",1036,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fisekai-nonbiri-nouka-cover.jpg"]
