2001 Episode 1986: Makoto is here.(Cardboard is great.)

"Paper bags?

Shouldn't I just buy a bag with apples? "

Denham tells Langford.

"If you do that, the house will be full of backs.

If I can receive the product in a paper bag, I can throw it away when I take it home.

Nothing is easier. "

Langford says.

"Is that what it is?"

"That's what it is.

So, what do you think, Lord Kitamizato? "

"I made a prototype... here."

Takeo takes out a paper bag with an open mouth above the garbage can in the room and places it on the desk.

"Well... put the item inside and fold it a few times with your upper mouth together.

Yes, we can.

This is unexpectedly strong.

Sure, it's easier to tear if you put water on it. "

Takeo narrows his mouth by putting paper in the bag before handing it to Denham.

Hmm...

Denham is gently lifting and swinging left, right, up and down.

"The advantage of this is that it can be made with lint and scissors.

It doesn't have to be sewn like a cloth, and the raw materials are cheap.

The point is that we can create a simple backpack that can cover the production volume.

And... yes, this. "

Takeo puts a paper that looks a little thick in front of Denham.

"What is this?"

"It's one of the possibilities of paper.

Paper is a mass of fiber.

When you look at the surface with the paper on your desk, it is strong for vertical and horizontal forces, but weak for vertical forces. "

Takeo lifts up the paper and tears it apart.

"Well... yeah."

"Well then, what happens if the force in the vertical direction is also made to be strong..."

"Is this the answer?"

Denham and the others are watching a prototype of Takeo.

"Well... you've made something close to the answer.

Please... I don't mind tearing it. "

"Well... excuse me."

Denham lifts it, and Takeo tries to rip it apart as he did earlier, but it twists and bends.

Hmm...

Hee ~.

Whoa ~.

Three people are surprised.

"Well... there's a problem with this, too.

Director, please rip it from the person in your hand now. "

Takeo urged me.

"Hah... well, nnh... ah."

Denham rips a little when he applies the same force as before.

"The strength varies depending on the direction the force is applied.

Well, there's still something better than a regular piece of paper.

Well... we've increased the strength of the paper.

What will I do next? "

"" Nh... ""

Three people are worried.

"I made a box."

Takeo takes out the paper box.

""... hah... ""

Three people come back alive.

"I don't know... I don't feel very comfortable...

Well, I don't mind.

Now, let's make a standard for the size of this box, the box.

The size of the notebook, the size of the two notebooks, and the size of the six notebooks.

This way, you can package the documents side by side when you send them.

How's it going?

Compared to a wooden box, the paper box won't hurt anything inside, and it might be good to put vegetables and other organisms in it. "

The three face each other with a slightly worse complexion.

"Yeah, you don't seem to have any objections.

Well... this is the advantage. "

"Yes! Just a moment."

Denham raises his hand.

"Director, what is it?"

"Er... Master Kitamizato, you're going to make that, right?"

"Yes, I've made a prototype, and it's generally as strong as I imagined.

Well, there's something else I'd like to make... so I was wondering if this could be done.

Oh, by the way, this is called cardboard.

So, what's the advantage? "

"Wait... wait a minute, please.

I understand that Master Kitamizato will make a paper box.

In other words, I understand that you are telling us that you have to increase paper production.

And... what Kitamizato is saying right now... is that there is a possibility that it will change greatly in the future distribution... but if it becomes widespread, there will be a lack of paper, right? "

"... that's why you said it from the beginning, right?

I don't have enough paper.

But... I'll do it before someone else thinks and sells it.

I created a corner plan, and I can't let someone take advantage of it! "

"" "Ahhhhh..." "

"Well, this cardboard.

The advantage is that it is lightweight and can be folded into a storage space, so it also has a high storage capacity.

It doesn't take long to dismantle or assemble like a wooden box.

In addition, since the size can be adjusted according to the size of the contents due to the ease of processing, it is also good for adding vegetables and other organisms.

It would be a waste to have vegetables stacked in boxes and barrels when transporting them.

If you carefully put it in a box one step at a time, the value of the product will also increase.

... that face... "

Takeo looks at the three faces and says.

"Um... Master Kitamizato, I think that cardboard... can be sold."

Langford says he's afraid.

"Yes, it will be a good selling product.

After all, being able to lighten the box means being able to increase the load on the wagon.

As a result, the volume of transportation may increase.

The people in the caravan think they can handle it a lot. "

"Yes, that's right.

Well... they said they knew that there was a risk of being pressured in terms of paper production if it became popular, but could you think of a way to deal with it as well? "

Langford will ask.

"... I understand that it is difficult to suddenly ask for more production.

Manufacturers should only produce three shifts a day all day, but I don't think it would be difficult to get raw materials.

The next topic is how to procure raw materials immediately. "

Takeo continued his argument.
