"Huh... Director of monopoly, do you want to buy the method and structure of manufacturing cardboard?"
Takeo gives up.
"Will you sell it!?"
Denham raised his face.
"Well, even if it is a workshop that has a partnership with the Kitamizato family, it can be produced in small quantities, and it is subject to some preference regarding the sale of recycled paper.
I would like to refine the quantity when ordering. "
"I will! I will!"
Denham nods with great momentum.
"Lord Kitamizato! Are you sure?!
It leads to the sale of considerable profits to the monopoly office!? "
Langford says.
"Good or bad... the paper recycling business hasn't started in the first place.
I think it means building a new factory in a way that maintains the current production of paper even if it is simply said to increase production and increase production.
Wouldn't it be normal for the Treasury Board to pay for the construction of a new factory just in the name of securing resources and reusing paper?
Moreover, the monopoly bureau produces goods independently, and even in departments that have a different taste from the bureaux that sell them, it is not free to use all of its revenues, but only converted into revenues as a state, and the annual budget is allocated.
The director of the monopoly office is not free to have a budget to secure personnel for the new plant.
In order to build a new factory, the Treasury Board must approve the budget.
"I'm expecting more paper demand, so please make a budget because I want to build a new factory and increase the number of staff."
To receive the budget, we need to present a rosy plan for the Treasury Board.
In order to do this, it is essential to explain the manufacturing and sale of cardboard, its convenience and future sales volume, and to anticipate future revenue growth.
Furthermore, if each station works together, the new costs for raw materials will be kept low, and if it is explained that the sales price will be lowered and the sales volume may increase as a result... it is expected that the likelihood of being allowed will be much higher. "
"... certainly, in order to get the budget, the future is important, apart from the present...
If it is expected to be of considerable profit, it is easy for the Treasury Board to grant permission... "
Langford thinks.
"So I originally wanted to teach you cardboard skills.
Well, I'll add in the profits of what I do directly, and let you color it to a certain extent. "
"It's okay, let me handle it. ♪
I will pay well for the future with Lord Kitamizato. "
Denham replies in a good mood.
"Um... by the way, Mr. Kitamizato, I understand the convenience of using a paper box.
But I know that paper is vulnerable to water.
When it rains, the wagon can get a little wet.
What will you do about this? "
Haggard asks.
"... why don't you cover it with a board?
In fact, I am prototyping a special carriage for transporting goods to the wholesale market, and I am developing a carriage that can carry the same amount of luggage as the carriage that is now commercially available, but can be equipped with a box surrounded by boards of the same strength as iron plates... I have reported to the royal family and Prime Minister Orcott.
Prime Minister Orcott says he will deliver one to King's Landing as soon as he can and conduct a strength test. "
"... that's..."
"I'm sorry, but we don't sell technology even if we deliver this.
It is a joint project with a workshop in this territory, and the board material uses something of high rarity value.
So I will sell it, but I don't want to commission production in King's City yet. "
Really...
Haggard is depressed.
"But we've heard from our cooperative workshop that we're developing a highly waterproof cloth.
Because it is more waterproof than conventional cloth, there is a way to protect it from rainwater by using it on a wagon or on a cardboard. "
Takeo sells Ralph's products.
"Wow, is that kind of product... expensive?"
Denham asks.
"It's still under development.
I don't know the exact price.
Besides, I don't know how much mass production is possible due to its special characteristics, but I think it will ensure a certain amount of production. "
"That's... what I want you to tell me when it's sold."
"Well, I go to King's Landing regularly.
You can report it at that time, but... well, if it sold, it sold... "
"Please let me know as soon as you can.
I have to get it and do a lot of tests first. "
Denham says.
Takeo said, "Hmm... the commercialization has made sense, so I might have to consult with Ralph once about the sales volume.
Besides, it's probably hard to say that the recycled paper business is the way I said it would be... well, I don't think it would be completely recycled paper, but I think it would be a cardboard material if it were mixed with new materials.
Besides, this time, new paper raw materials have been thrown away closer than the success of the recycled paper business, so can you understand the significance of securing them?
Maybe mixing will become more mainstream... and the future should be high.
Should I explain it at a later date?".
"Well, a highly waterproof cloth will be used at a later date.
In the meantime, we have finished explaining the proposal for the recycling paper project and the planning of the afforestation project.
After returning to King's Landing, please summarize your story and contact me if you are willing to do it as a monopoly office. "
Takeo tells the three of them.
Um... As for me, I'd like to get on right away...
"Director, let's take it home.
We also need to hear the opinions of other executives. "
"Yes, and the Treasury Board, as well as the General Inspectorate, needs to be rooted out."
Denham nodded.
