After drawing Order cards into your hand, move all cards to the left, filling in all empty spaces. Then, fill all empty spaces on the Order Form Board with Order cards from the Order card deck until all spaces are full.

To gain a Technology card, the Industry value has to be paid. The Industry value is written on the top left of the card. In addition, the rightmost spaces on the Laboratory Technology Card Placement Area may add addition- al Industry value to the card that has to be paid.

Example:  THE Tram card is located 3 spaces from the left on the Technology Card Placement Area. The Industry value cost of this card is 5 plus 1 from the Management Board for a total of 6.

The Industry value can be paid with Action Power, Money and Imported Goods.

After paying the Industry value, place the Technology card face-up in front of you. Excess Industry value is lost.

Example: Hisashi needs 6 Industrial value in order to get the Tram technology. First, his President pawn, 3 Assistant pawns and 1 Shophouse gain him 5 Power, which translates into 5 Industry value. In addition, he pays 2 Yen for 1 more Industry value. In total, he pays 6 Industry value and obtains the Tram technol- ogy.
