Year 7444, Month 12, Day 14
I was a bit surprised at Basutral who suddenly ca out with his desire for employnt, right now isn't the ti to being interviewing him. However, I can't just ignore him without saying anything either.
"Please raise your head. Umm, this is just a simple confirmation but what sort of relationship do you have with these two Basutral-san?"
Since I want to avoid sothing like headhunting their attendant. Faruergaz and Hirosukal were looking at Basutral with bitter faces but didn't say anything. Basutral is hesitating whether it's okay for him to open his mouth when soone interrupted from the side. It doesn't need to be said but it was Ralpha.
"It seems that person was a slave. Last month these two bought him and after bringing him to the capital they released him into a Free Person."
He~ well since they're reincarnated people I'm sure they had that much leeway, if I were to et Basutral when he was a slave then I'm sure if I had the money at that ti Imighthavedonesothinglikethataswell. However, whether or not I release him would depend on if he was born a slave, or fell to being a slave as a result of a cri or being unable to pay his taxes, I'm sure I would investigate things like that first.
"Is that so..That is really..Well conversation regarding employnt we should do again at a later ti, if possible I'd like to discuss it."
"Pl..Please do!"
I calm down Basutral who is frantically lowering his head to and returned the conversation to where we were.
"Well I feel as thought I'm paying compensation that corresponds to our earnings..However, in regards to the amount of that compensation, putting aside the person them self I don't think you as an outsider have any right to speak on it, is what I think though.."
I try to smooth over my expression to appear as earnest as I can while talking. Next to Toris and Bel are nodding as if to say that's right, that's right.
"..I see, certainly it seems you're handing them a reasonable amount of compensation..I can accept that they're satisfied with the compensation like they were saying."
"Is that so? I'm glad that you were able to comprehend it."
"However, I still haven't received an answer I can accept in regards to limiting them on their freedom to quit or obligating them to obey orders other than those that relate to life and death. Furthermore, there's still a portion that is lacking as well. There's no arbitration clause. When a dispute occurs between the persons concerned, how do you intend to settle things?"
Is this guy an idiot? It's not like this is Japan, even the country and individual territories don't have their laws posted out in the open. The only ti they have sothing like a jurisdictional court is the day of judgent but fundantally they only deal with criminal incidents. Things like civil cases the only way is if a noble was to hire a high ranking noble to judge on it or or a high ranking noble has the King make the judgents.
Since I'm barely within the realms of sub-Nobility, if I cry to him then Marquis Webdos might make a judgent. Since I can't rely on the King right now after all...If I rember correctly the King made a judgent on it, right, your Count Faruregaz family and the Rodairl family or Crocodile family or whatever Marquis families debt problem from 300 years ago right? I can't do anything but sigh.
..In the first place the one who suggested making employnt contracts the source of this problem was Ralpha. It's sothing I found out later but sothing like an employnt contract no one in this world uses them. Even when we were talking big about it to the scribe when we passed through Doran on our way to Baldukk they just looked amazed at us and every ti I bring them in to the governnt office of Baldukk the officials look at with faces like "Is this guy an idiot?" It's not sothing I started doing because I wanted. I just got on the boat because I thought I should make use of whatever I could.
"..Fu~ ..I see, then I'll start in order from the places which are easy to respond...First off, in regards to the arbitration clause but have either of you entered into a contract for so kind of dealing with a rchant on Orth before?"
"Never."
