179 5.68 Production of Hamigachiko And Kaori No Kyandoru Commences (1/2)

After supper, Hiko-sama and I went to the trading district and made the letters addressed to individual cities and Blacksmith alliances and a return address for them to send in their accumulated orders.

The letters were beautifully calligrapher in Recto Shop that it looked somewhat identical to one another as 2 apprentices and the owner wrote each one of them carefully. Within an hour all the 11 letters with individual cities had been written and I paid 1 gold and silver for it.

”You want to graduate with honours, sir? We have diplomas and degrees from universities all over the world and we can make them for you within the hour.”

”Haisshh... Never-ending touting their fake certificates and pass them as originals.” I commented to Hiko-sama and wanted to see if they have a certificate for jive-talking especially to the mayor earlier.

I had made an arrangement with the 4 ambassadors that we would be heading to the stable nous to collect the horses as buying them for information and these information needs to be verified and passed under the saddles of the horses as we collect them from time to time.

The information would include the movement of covert operatives since the stable boys would have the last contact before the covert operatives head out for their deadly mission especially to cause disruption, sabotage or incite riots within the corporation, the operations, employees and us.

The men had agreed to my ideas as it would pre-alert us for any incoming danger that we may face. However, we have to make sure no one knows where we might be heading since the friends that we know may turn out to be a double-bladed sword.

We had brought along 11 pieces of Refined Iron plates and in the distribution caged wagon since it had not been entered into the ledger. We carried it to the Messengers Guild that in many years to come, it was to be known as Post Office.

We talked to the clerk and told them our intention and the clerk showed us a recipient form to us and it would show the person that had received the item and letter would acknowledge and stamp their organisation seal. Thus copy would be sent to us by messenger.

He looked at the cities and calculated the cost for shipping and handling. We paid 15 gold and 9 silvers for the services and it would be delivered first thing in the morning.

We looked at the figure and it was a small price to pay for safety at this moment. The fees that we paid also included a self-return address that pointed directly to the corporation.

We thanked the clerk and discovered that it is time to replenish the Refined Iron stock level for up to 100,000 pieces which mean we would be doing 2,000 moulding trays per batch at 3 hours in the Realm of Mind.

We decided to dive into the Realm of Mind upon returning home. We walked back and reminiscing now we first started off when Hiko-sama bought the first clothes on my back and now we have a wealth that even the Major is amazed at what we can make in a 30 day window period.

Upon reaching we monitor the time to process the Refined Iron plates and decided that time is on our sides so we decided to enter our meditative state and enter the Realm of Mind.

After the completion of the 2000 moulding trays, we logged off and went to our real world where we sat at the garden and drank a few cups of yumeshu before deciding to walk the product lines. Hanna and Gin were there and was busy helping the girls out with their production.

We asked how was everyone and the response that we received was very positive. Almost everyone in the outermost District knows what had happened in the afternoon and told us to be more patient when we were dealing with the mayor in the future.

We wished them adieu and went back to our house to freshen up before getting into bed.

The following morning after getting out of the shower, we sat in the garden to have our morning breakfast and enjoy another great day ahead. Breakfast was simple and it was steamed tapioca eaten with a bit of molten palm sugar.

I informed Hiko-sama that this tapioca could be eaten as it is, or with a bit of white sugar or palm sugar. It could also be eaten with a bit of grated coconut and a pinch of salt.

The best thing about this tapioca is that it could be slightly steamed and pounded and add screw pine extract and coconut milk then made into a patty and heated over a large saucepan or a large flat round pan with a little bit of oil. It could be made crispy on the outside and soft on the insides.

I asked the 'aunties' if they could prepare them for afternoon tea and they said no problem as there were 2 sackfuls of tapioca and they could make several variants of the tapioca cake or snacks. I thanked the 'aunties' as the 4 ambassadors had arrived and enjoyed their morning breakfast.

I glanced at the newly constructed warehouses and it seemed that the operation may start tomorrow. We cleared the breakfast and walked to the stable boys to collect 6 mounts while the delivery boys had taken 2 horses to pull the wagon.

The intended message had been delivered and they agree provided that their lives would not be compromised. We agree to it and we would be as discreet as possible. It was slightly 830 am and would be reaching there by 1130 am.

It would be a 6hours journey to and fro and the delivery boys packed some tapioca for the 8 of us to munch if we're hungry.

When we reached there, we discovered that we were not alone as there a group of miners as they were hacking and picking at the limestone extracts. We asked the men whether they are working for others or trying to earn a quick buck.

When we realised that they were working for themselves we asked how much does the handcraft load of limestone costs and they told me its a silver each. I saw that they had loaded a wagon full and there were each picking the limestone and placing them on the 6 carts.

The wagon had been filled with 6 cart load full of limestone extract and told them we would offer 2 gold for everything. In this case, they don't need to carry it down the steep hill to reach the bottom. Seeing that they are able to earn 8 extra silvers, they took the empty wagon and exchanged for the one they had filled.

They helped to harness the wagon to the two horses and the delivery boys rested there while waiting for us to scout for the youkai Taijiya village. After an hour, it was proved to be fruitless since the mountain was covered with a mist and would be climbable in 2 months time.

We ate some of the tapioca and then began our journey back to Kitakata Village. The moment we reached there the storekeeper and the delivery boys quickly offload the limestone extract and store them in sacks before placing them on the elevated staging area.

A guard came forward and passed a note dr Shibata for the orders of the STM and I recorded it in the sketchpad for the compiled order. It was 568 that brings a total of 1368 machines that could make a figure of 13,680 or 11,628 gold coins after cost. This figure could be used mainly for the payment of salary, commission and remunerations.

We decided to ask the 'aunties' if there are leftovers for lunch and luckily she had reserved for the 6 of us. Steamed rice with some chicken slices and a portion of stir-fried baby kailan. We ate ravlshly and was served with the tapioca cake that I had mentioned earlier. Each of us had 2 pieces and it was splendid even though the original version was grated tapioca instead of partly steamed and pounded.

The 4 ambassadors dismissed themselves and headed to their respective homes to rest. As for us we entered the Realm of Mind and made another 2000 moulding trays of Refined Iron.

We then went to see the grounds and noticed that the cemented courtyard had been cured and hardened. I called a messenger and passed a note for the kitchen supplies to come over. At the meantime, the storekeeper helped to set up the assembly warehouse where 8 platforms had been placed for the 24 assemblers to be working there.

The 30 workers were there to assist and after a formal briefing was introduced and all their deployment had been set. The seniors were the ones who do the briefing while I stood there and listened about the delegation and responsibilities for the storekeeper, delivery and the guards' duties.

Each of the seniors took turns to brief their juniors. After the duties had been briefed, the 2nd shift personnel stayed till their work hours are complete before being replaced by the 3rd shift which only consists of the guards.

All the operations had been moved except for Karada Soap and Hae Shanpu that stayed behind in the 1st warehouse, while the Kurin and Feroa Kurina shared a warehouse, the Kaori No Kyandoru and Hamigachiko in another.

Any other additional would be shuffled to make space or even split the production into 2 areas. The set up was arranged so that there is ample space to move about rather than sitting or working together like a pack of sardines.

The owner of the kitchen supplies took note of what he needs to supply and return an hour later to add and arrange the equipment. The 2nd shift new workers came and were taught on how to make the newly acquired formula for Scented Candles and toothpaste in porcelain round containers.
