1465 Episode 1452: Report to Count Elvis.7 (Ship Design and FRP Ship Overview. )

"Then came the ship's designer while Takeo was gone.

I wonder if my husband was Dan Church and my wife was Cloy Beckley.

Frederick nods as Grandpa Elvis says.

"Are you here at last?

How was it?

"I'm a young couple.

Looks like they're both designing it.

Looks like we're having an exchange of views with Roach and Carol.

Also, the Elvis family (of which) people are making corrections by giving their opinions on the maintenance of the artificial lake.

"Dear Takeo, the prospect is that the final creation diagram will take a few more days than the Port Department.

Grandpa Elvis and Frederick say each.

"If the ship's experts will look at the whole thing, you can rest assured.

"Uhm.

Reports from the Port Department don't seem to indicate a sufficient building system.

Looks like he's working on an overall view and an additional budget proposal now.

I wonder if I could have those two look at it again if I could create a diagram.

"The Lord, Loach, Carroll, Tracy, Suzune and other key people have also discussed the overview of carriers and transport vessels.

You all had a lot of drafts and lively discussions.

We go to see how it goes every two days, but now they seem to be designing the ship.

Grandpa Elvis and Victor explain.

"... you're moving all at once.

Well, maybe this much behavior is normal... "

Takeo says as he thinks.

"By the way.

Takeo, you've come to design the ship, what are you going to do with it?

Everyone turns to me when Grandpa Elvis asks.

"Is that it?... didn't you tell me?

Use black slime body fluids.

Um... I prototyped it, but this is it.

Takeo takes out a board of black slime made during his journey from his nostalgia.

"Hmm... excuse me.

... It's light... "

"Yeah, this is lighter than it looks.

"It's weird.

Hmm? You have scratches and spiked marks on this.

Erica lifts the plate of injuries Baynon put on.

"It has slightly inferior endurance compared to iron, but currently weighs 1/4 compared to the same amount of iron.

Well, I'm going to let Pana study it and determine the final strength and weight in view of productivity and stuff, but at least I'm sure it'll be lighter than iron.

Soon, Takeo says, Tibipana materializes on Takeo's shoulder to thank everyone.

"That's great.

Master Takeo, do you make shields out of this black slime fluid?

"So far, that's going to be for the realm and the Wang Metropolitan Guard.

The laboratory will be made of iron for extraterritorial use and will aim to achieve the same weight and price.

"Really... with iron... do you think you can do it?

"It's just easy to increase strength... so where can you cut it off on a budget after that?

Takeo says as he thinks.

"Ha... Takeo, I think the idea of 'it's easy to increase strength' is hard in the first place.

Grandpa Elvis is stunned by the way Takeo says it.

"... Gentlemen, I think it's too hard to think about...

Well, good, I'll check that area at the lab and let you know when I can report it.

"Um, please.

So, take this to the ship?

Grandpa Elvis lifts a board of black slime and says:

"Yes, then let me briefly explain what I'm thinking right now in pictures.

Takeo stands up and goes in front of the blackboard, saying so.

"First, once you build a ship in a tree as per the blueprint, cover it with clay or soil from the outside and inside.

Make sure that the covering around you has been grilled and consolidated, so that the covering can be split up and down.

This creates a ship-shaped space and allows you to template the ship.

Clean the baking cushion, lay it up and down again, pour black slime fluid into the gap, and cook.

"I don't know... why that would make a ship like the blueprints.

A ship of equal solidity to iron... is this interesting?

"Dear Takeo... I'm sure there's a ship and a report coming up that can carry three containers...

You'll need a building to burn things of considerable size.

We think about the grounds, but what kind of furnace is there to bake?

"The furnace for baking is made of total stone. We also need to use a lot of refractory plates that are being made by the Haworth Chamber of Commerce right now to avoid burning into the building.

The cost requires large quantities of clay and firewood.

Initial investment will be pretty tough, but once you can make a template, it's just the body fluids and firewood from the slime until it breaks, so you expect to make a profit.

And I'll make a container.

I think I can handle it as a business.

Takeo smiles.

"... ha... it's good to hear.

Frederick is a bit dismayed as he holds his head down.

"Erm... Master Takeo, are you telling that story to Roach Workshop or Satella Manufacturing?

Alice asks.

"I didn't say that.

And it won't be until we've established a way to increase the strength of this.

I will not tell you the materials of the ship or container.

Let us assume that for the time being it will be made of wood or iron.

Pana, is this the first one?

"Okay.

Is it a prototype of FRP, what do you mix it into?

"In the meantime, I'm thinking with cloth, I'll go to Ralph's store manager tomorrow, so should I buy a cheap cloth there?

"Okay.

... what do you do with cloth as a material?

"If you want to do it, it's good at the same time.

If it works, I'll use it in uniforms, work clothes, trench coat improvements-- make sure it hangs up with scissors.

"That's... I'll think about it.

"Ha... well, we'll make a full move after the lab.

"Yes."

Takeo and Pana are having an exchange.

"Master Takeo? What were you talking to Pana about?

"It's a big mess coming up.

Well, in the meantime, you just need to remember that you think you're going to use this material to make both ships and containers.

Please keep it confidential until satisfactory research results are available.

"" "Well... ha..." "

I snorted even though I didn't know everyone.
