247 6.41 Good Job, Himura!

The whole place now looked like a refugee camp. Hahahahaha. Out of the 1234 new residents that came, almost 900 of them makes up for the builders and Kayu-San had to delegate some of his senior builders to maintain and guide about 30 men each.

Within hours, all messengers had been activated and messages had been sent to a radius of 50km because someone misinterprets my 15 to become 50. But its a blessing and in the end, a total number of 1234 new residents or 412 clusters of families came forth.

These tentages were of Imperialist Army type and were erected just on the outskirts of towns. I briefed the new residents to bear with us for the time being because the building of these new homes is essential and once it is completed they can immediately move to the longhouse.

I swiftly ordered and got 10 tonnes of rice to be distributed to the new families. The Plant Managers and the Supervisor Assistants soon got to work and helped to pack the rice accordingly to 25kg each for 412 families.

They made 20 lines and got everyone to register their names and age for the registration of residency on Kitakata. A few patrolmen helped to maintain the order and after a few minutes, the rowdiness stopped and order was restored.

After 2 hours or so, everyone got their ration and as well as the records for the residency and recipients for the welfare benefits. Those 900 odd new builders were quickly assigned and got to be familiarised with the building concepts.

Some became bricklayers, cement mixers, general workers, carpenters, installers, roofers, and finishers. Those inexperienced ones were given manual labour and they switched from one supervisor to the next to keep things in motion. Each supervisor had gotten their names and submitted to us.

I kept the records while waiting for Hiko-sama and the 4 Execom to return from their tasks in the Treasury. I don't wish to disturb them because they were dealing with other peoples money and its rather sensitive.

They were about 24 new merchants that had arrived and they were ushered by the Plant Managers to the business conference building.

Seeing the magnitude of the production lines, the 24 new merchants were greatly impressed and were eager to know about our line of products that would be introduced to them.

They were given a short tour about 30-45 minutes on the grounds and were surprised that the production lines were practically running 24 hours on a 3 rotating shift. And when they asked how much an employee earns, it was half of a samurai's salary.

Since all of our products were on display and testers were available for them to try out, the new merchants were equally impressed at the organisation that we had painstakingly arranged.

Order forms were quickly given out with specific details, pricing and quantity per carton size so they could easily purchase them by bulk. Even Refined Steel Plates were included inside. After the 24 New merchants had filled up their forms, they were ushered to their respective rooms on the second floor.

The Plant Managers also brought them to the community building where they could relax and be pampered by massages after their long journey to Kitakata or just to chill and have a break at the games room or the 3rd floor where they could enjoy their dinner.

From the 3rd floor, they could see a lot of workers busy working on the houses in the New District and when they asked the Plant Managers of these workers, they proudly announced it all was financed by Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha. The workers' salaries, the building materials and the land were all being financed by Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha and not by the government.

They all wanted to see me but the Plant Managers informed them that Yours Truly was having a discussion with His Majesty, Tokugawa Iemochi on the grounds. The Plant Managers pointed to where they lived and also where the current Mayor and Governor lived and were surprised to find out that the Mayor/Governor was a really humble and down to earth person.

They took their order forms and doubled or tripled their orders and made an astonishing accumulated sales order of more than 10 million gold coins. The Plant Managers informed the 24 New merchants to go right ahead and look for them at Jiyu Residence would they need any assistance or guidance and soon left the 24 New merchants enjoying their meals at the 3rd-floor cafe.

Before they took their leave, they informed the merchants the Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha had introduced Fasuto Japan Airways for the merchants use at no extra charge to ferry their goods from Kitakata all the way to their destination.

The merchants were surprised at our efficiency in taking the matter to heart and of course, it would be the first time riding in a tanuki that had transformed as a big yellow floating gourd.

The Plant Managers reassured them that they were flying at faster than a galloping horse at only 2-3 feet off the ground and would take a break after 2 hours of flight. There would be a Youkai Taijiya acting as a pilot and guard in case something happens.

Before the Plant Managers left, they told the yatai seller's or stallholders to write up the bill and pass to Yours Truly for the settlement after the merchant's had left town with their goods. They nodded and proceed to provide their 24 guests with gusto.

Izumi came back and reported the matter that everything is settled and passed me the order forms. I told her to summon a storekeeper and when he came, I passed these order forms to be made into purchase orders and to set 24 wagons for transportation by Fasuto Japan Airways, each one marked by each individual merchant and destination.

Tokugawa Iemochi looked at the efficiency of our work and noticed how meticulous our paperwork are. Just by 24 merchants alone, we had raked in more than 10 million gold coins of generated sales. According to me later, I explained that we only use about 10-15% of the sales amount to run as reimbursements in our float cash. A minimum amount of 1.5 million gold coins are required for the salaries, redevelopment of Kitakata, food supplies, and other fixed and variable costs.

"Good job, Himura. You are not blinded by wealth because your own earnings per day could be an entire trading district in a month...!! Good job, my friend... I have never once looked back and regretted my decision to appoint you as Town's Mayor and Fukushima's Governor. Well done... I am truly happy."

Soon by 5 pm, Hiko-sama and the 4 Execom returned back and reported that all this was tasked had been performed for the Bank and General Tax Office. They had performed all the tasks assigned and also discovered that numbering their account books would be much easier to track through their ledger book.

They assigned 2 pages per name entry with the date, amount deposit and withdrawn, balance account on the saving ledger books. As for the business, home and hire purchase of products loan, they had made it ready too. Everything that had been tasked had been accomplished.

After setting aside the amount for Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha, what's left for the castle assets was only a mere few hundred thousand gold coins.

"Dissolve it and put it into the Fasuto Japan Bank. There's no need for an account as the castle belongs to residents of Fukushima as well. Just a saying though. Maybe have it open for the public once every month and let it become a local attraction since I won't be here all this time."

"My friend, this is the second day I am here and I have seen a tremendous effort being made. Plan and execute and exercise what had been planned. Perfect... Not much hassle but everything seems like clockwork to you. Its life as if, doing these kinds of work is an everyday part of your life. Is that true?"

"You have been all along since breakfast and you can see how fast I could manage things up with just a few kind words and gestures. Respect is earned and everybody knows that the words that come out from my mouth, after considering them in my head, would be accomplished no matter how."

"Your Majesty, Yours Truly here is a Hitokiri. One with a reed pen and one with his tongue. Once he penned his ideas, he is going to work on that and never fear of changes and failures. So far... I myself had not seen a single failure in his dedication since 5 months ago." Hiko-sama said as he mentioned about me having a sharp mind.
