161 5.50 General Cleanup And Storage of Products..

"Sensei, would it be a good idea for us to place an order, like say 36 barrels of coconut and olive oil each and 36 sacks of lye and 36 sacks of baking powder since we have a huge warehouse and set aside a place where someone is able to heat up the baking powder to turn it into washing soda by heating it using an XXL wok on an XXL rocket stove?"

"The hae shanpu just need the 3 base soap mixture, Essense and water only. Then it would be stirred evenly to make the solution to be not too watery or thin by using a very small fire. So the ratio would be 25:25:20:5:0.5:5 which means 25 litres of coconut and olive oil, 20 litres of water for 5 kilograms of lye, 500 ml of Essense and lastly 5 litres of water."

This set up could be done in the real world as it needs constant monitoring I explained to Hiko-sama and he nodded his head.

"We need to clear all the production of the current Karada Soap. Then send back all the moulding trays back to Realm of Mind and change it to the new concept that I had informed you earlier for the 12x3x3 inch moulding tray that the girls need to cut out after it had hardened."

"We can shorten the process for the curing of the Karada Soap by implementing an air tunnel where ventilating and exhaust fans would assist in the airing and drying process. If it takes 3 weeks in the Realm of Mind to dry, it would then take 1 week instead, which means only 2 and a half-day to be dry on the real world."

"With 2 girls working per pallet, I think to make 300 packs of Karada Soap would take somewhere 3 pieces per minute which meansthey will complete it by 1 hr and 45 minutes."

"Hmm, you're right since the girls don't need to cut the soap up. But the timing you gave includes the cutting process right? So that means the one that had been fabricated now is much faster!"

I nodded because the girls started late this morning and have to wait for the low tables to be completed before they can work on the Karada Soap.

"The instructions to start on the Karada Soap was delegated to the girls when you were in the shower and I made sure they packed, wrapped, and stamped perfectly before resuming the tasks"

Since we had finished brunch, we walked back and was greeted by our guard saying that a messenger had come to send a note. We looked at it and found that Miroku and Kami had set out to Shibata straight from Yonezawa. It seems that the duo was intent to hit the target of 50,000 gold coins in gross sales in this month.

A short while, Hide and Toshi arrived after returning the horses back to the stable boys of the shogunate. They saluted us and we offered them to take a seat.

"Report CEO-san and CFO-san! Here is the list of orders for the [Purified Iron] as well as the Blacksmith's names, locale and trade section. There is also a statistics of the 5 cosmetic shops around the town and the breakdown of the payment for the lease of a locale."

"The treasury has a cheque or receipt for an exchange of gold coins in the name of a corporate's trade name as the payee and could be directly paid into the corporate account when presented with the book and receipt at the same time. The exchange rate is the same as Kitakata."

"Please feel free to ask any questions, and either Hide or me we will elaborate to you more."

We looked at their sketchpad and saw all the information that was clearly stated and some drawings of cartoon characters that looked like Doraemon and Godzillas, Naruto and DragonballZ characters.

Do you know in Psychology, those who doddles in class or meetings seem to have more acute attention to the subject discussed at hand than those who wrote all the information down in their books?

I told both Hide and Toshi that everything is understood. The staffs were now making crate boxes to pack the 600 [Refined Iron] plates, Kurin and Feroa Kurina Detergent and work are in progress for the packing of the Karada Soap.

Later tonight there would be a delivery of 3,000 [Refined Iron] plates and would be packed the next following day. Hiko-sama and I praised them about using codes in their messages so at least we knew how many plates the Blacksmith had ordered and how many batches need to be sent.

I told them to wait another day or two and they can deliver the whole batch to the Blacksmith one time. The guys' eyes lit up upon hearing it and said that the total weight would be near a ton.

Toshi suggests we pack 100 pieces each for the Blacksmith at least the load for the wagon would be 300 kilograms. To travel such a short distance would require only 1 pony.

But in the case for a longer distance like Yonezawa, it would require 2 ponies and 3 ponies for Shibata.

I thanked Hide and Toshi for their explanation and to take the rest of the day off and to report here tomorrow after lunch and prepare to move out to. At least they have a proper rest when they start the journey back to Aizuwakamatsu to deliver the first 100 pieces to the group of Blacksmith there.

I called out to the guard to summon one of the delivery boys and soon he came running to me. I asked how were the crate boxes and he said that they had made more than enough crate boxes to store the current items and had made several more.

I told him to prepare 50 extra crate boxes for there's an incoming stock of 3,000 more [Refined Iron] plates. Then before he returned to his tasks, I made a note to place an order of 36 barrels of coconut and olive oil and 36 bags of baking powder and lye.

I gave instructions to him that the delivery would be made tomorrow morning after 8 am and the goods should be placed on the elevated staging area on pallets. The pallets would be arranged in such a way that there is an empty pallet in between of each goods. I made another note that we would be meeting the machinist and his nephew tonight for dinner and sent both notes for the delivery boy to send. He nodded and proceeded to send the notes first.

I looked at the sketchpad and began to write for the following plans tonight

1. Knock out all plates

2. Bring back 9 batches of karada soap

3. Send back empty mould trays

4. Make 4,000 plates

5. Dismantle one blender and sketch

6. Loan horse and wagon

7. Get rocket stove and wok and spatula

8. R&D blender design

9. Send first 1,500 plates to Aizuwakamatsu

10. Use 300 to sign the deal for the shop.

11. Transfer 7,200 gold coins to Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha.

I informed Hiko-sama that we are going to meet Mesen and his nephew tonight for dinner to discuss the blueprint and the costs. Then I passed him the sketchpad and his eyes widened as there is still more work to be done at this time. I laughed and told him that's the way it is for the two of us.

We walked into the warehouse and the girls had finished their work and were waiting at the long table for further instructions. I looked at the finished products and was happy that the girls had done a good job.

Since the girls worked overtime without pay last night, I told the girls to take a rest for the remaining part of the day. I thanked them and they thanked me back. I looked at their work and seemed that they had wrapped Karada Soap accordingly, had stamped the scent as well as stacked the finished product properly.

This would be packed into 50s inside the crate boxes and lined with hay. Once everything is complete a count would be made and an entry in the ledger book be made for each specific product.

I went to see the storekeeper and he showed me the books if he had made any mistakes. Since the plates are heavy, they were placed under the staging area. Furthermore, these had been placed in crates so a pallet with goods can be stacked on top of it to create more storage space.

They had packed 12 crates of [Refined Iron] of 50s each and fresh red stencilling were made in top and two sides of the crate. It showed just FJKRI. I checked the ledger for [Refined Iron] 50s incoming 12 and the date in the incoming section. Looks good. I checked the rest and everything is in accordance. He had made each book for each item and it is in order.

It was a wonder what a simple pleb can do with the right motivation and drive. The storekeeper asked what he should do if the Karada Soap does not meet the 50 quantity inside the crate. I replied to just leave the crate top open and wrote on a paper the quantity balance like for example if a shortage of 5 just writes (-5). He understood and told him to write the exact figure inside the entry.

Hiko-sama peered when I explained to the storekeeper so at least he understands more about the way things work.

We had our afternoon tea in the garden and checked the current to-do-list and still had about 3 hits before dinner time. We won't be able to use the operations room to enter the Realm of Mind during office hours, but what we can do now is to ask the men to fill up the 2 handcarts with as much as junk from the wagon after they had wiped down and free from soil and dirt.

Then the other handcart at the side of the house would be wheeled in and cleaned as well. I told the storekeeper the things that need to be done after they had packed the Kurin, Feroa Kurina, and the Karada Soap into their specific crates.

The 6 men were happy to work with us, even if they had exceeded the time of working hours as they had been taken care of emotionally as well as their welfare. Even if they were being summoned, they noticed that both of us would speak and explain to them in a manner that they understand the job to be done and not like their former boss that just orders them around.

We walked over to the girls and informed them that we would not be here for dinner but attending a meeting in the trading district instead. We looked at the time and noted that its close to 6 pm and informed the men not to work past 6 and leave the job to the guards who had nothing much to do and told the 2nd shift guards to stop work by 8 pm and lock up the place.

After we had informed the 2 groups of people, we walked slowly to the trading district with the blueprint in our hands. We went to meet Mesen and his nephew and then headed to the Inn to discuss our plans.

After discussing that 4 showrooms would be opened in Kitakata, Aizuwakamatsu, Yonezawa and Shibata. We need to make the 1st model for our own use and find out the total cost. Mesen borrowed the blueprint as he needs to view the finer details and will return it once he had made the first model in 5 days.

We agreed for him to hold on to the blueprint and we asked how the skillsets of his nephew and was told he was an apprentice. I told Mesen that if he could make a working model in 5 days, we would then discuss his monthly salary for a long term contract and his nephew as well.

5 days, one STM model. That amounts to 6 STM per month.

We had dinner of yakisoba and asked how was his business and said it was very difficult to survive. We told him that if he is able to produce the model in 5 days, we will buy off his unusable tools, add a glass shop front, give an overhaul look, display the unit there and then he should work slowly in the workshop to produce 6 STM every month.

A collaboration with the cosmetics shop would be made and a display stand of STM would be placed in front of both shops for their effective advertising, marketing and promotion that would bring in sales.

I remembered a term called AIDA which was to advertise, create interest, spark a desire and invoke action to buy, buy, buy..!!!

We went back after dinner and bade farewell to Mesen and we would be meeting him in 5 days time to check on the model and retrieve the blueprint. Once the model proved to be workable, we would then offer him the lifetime contract and a monthly salary for him and his nephew.

Both of them thanked us and told us that they would work on the model by this evening and bring the cost down as much as possible but never to compromise on the quality of STM.

We went back home and find that the workers had gone home and left only the guards. We straight went to work as we push the carts into our Ops Room, entered a meditative state and arrived in the Realm of Mind. In the Blacksmithing area, we dumped all the cleaned parts and junk on the floor next to the smelting pot.

Then we knocked 1,000 [Refined Iron] plates into each cart and brought it back to the real world first. We pushed the 3 carts filled with 1,000 plates each and placed them at the corner near the table of the storekeeper.

Next, we entered meditative state once more and arrived in the Realm of Mind and this tune we swiped the scene of the Blacksmithing area and into the soap production area. We gathered 9 pallets and brought it back to the real world.

The storage of the Karada Soap had been completed and we pushed all the empty pallets aside as we hoisted the new batches of Karada Soap and placed them near the 2 low tables.

The girls would be performing the works tomorrow as the relevant stamps had been prepared along with the labels on the pallets in order not to have a mixup.

We closed up everything and went back to our house. We rested for a while before Hiko-sama took off his kimono and was bare-bodied and I too followed Hiko-sama and being bare-bodied and still looked like a scrawny kid.

We checked our time and it was 9 pm and we have a long night ahead of us. We sat cross-legged and entered our meditative state and soon arrive at the Realm of Mind. We arranged the empty pallets and all the empty moulding set and after placing the smelting pot.

We placed some junk from the furniture store in the smelting pot to see how well it melted into Molten metal as I fired up the furnace and worked the bellows.

Hiko-sama worked alongside me and removed the slag and impurities that he had dropped into an abyss and the slag and impurities would appear in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle.

He mentioned that there is slightly more slag than the weapon parts. I dropped in more junk until it had filled about half of the smelting pot, and once Hiko-sama discovered that the slag had been properly removed, he started to fill the moulding sets.

Once he had drained the Molten metal in the smelting pot, I dumped in the junk and melted it, while Hiko-sama slowly and carefully stamped the imprint using the prodder.

This repeated until we had filled 200 plates, then 600; 1,500; 2,500 and lastly the 3,600th plate.

We looked at our handiwork and find that we once again had outperformed ourselves. We knew it was hard work but at least we were happy and satisfied with the results.

We went back to our real world and found out that we were drenched again for the 2nd night in a row. We rested a bit and we walked out to the garden and called a guard to us. He came and I passed him some coins to buy 2 jars of sake for us and trotted out to purchase them and returned 15 minutes later.

He asked how come we were sweating so much and I explained that were enjoying our sauna inside the house to get rid of the toxins inside the body.

The guard gave back the change and nodded his head and went back in duty.

We drank the balance from yesterday and opened up 1 jar and kept the other jar of sake. After that Hiko-sama went in to shower and then to bed and I saw a few heads poking at the windows to look at me and I called out to them to join me.

They were Izumi, Riko, Eko and Hanna. These four had been observing me and Hiko for 2 nights and seemed to be hard at work and had brought out the items to be packed since the other day.

"Senpai, you and Sensei seemed to be working harder than us. Is that what both of you had been doing all this while?"

"Yes, no success could be achieved if we just sit and watch from a distance. But no problem, Eko... I am used to hard labour."

"Aren't you tired, Senpai. You should look after yourself and make sure you won't get sick. We would be most worried if you fall sick."

"Don't worry, with the magical healing powers of Karada soap, all the cuts and bruises would magically disappear!"

"Yes, Senpai... Would you like to see a bite mark from a wild animal on my breasts here, near to one of my nipples? It's slowly getting better, come closer, Senpai, I will even let you touch it..."

Izumi mentioned about the bite mark as she moved closer and she held her hand on the top of her kimono as she tried to separate it and showed me her breasts and nipple but no bite mark.

Hahahahaha..... Mr Director, there's something wrong with this script again...!

I told them to sleep early since it was late and I would head for the shower before sleeping. I carried the full jar of sake into the house and waved at the girls before I close the main door.

Little did we knew that we had spent about 18 straight hours in the Realm of Mind today, as when I looked at the pocket watch, it showed just slightly after 3 am.

I feel like sleeping in the Realm of Mind because it's a 3x slower flow of time there. It's going to be morning soon and decided to take a shower and make some tea while throwing some sweet potatoes into the hot embers directly.
