Volu 6 Chapter 6
Translator: HASUTSUKI, Editor: Chaz
First of all, I would like to express my deep gratitude to you for accepting my fathers, Zaku Mistel, allegiance.
After putting the cup back on the table Yuria raised her body and bowed deeply toward Ryouma.
The wife of an Earl bowed her head toward an erging Baron.
In a world where social status was very strict, such a scene was normally impossible to believe.
Their act looked natural.
Ryouma also tried his best to act naturally in accepting Yurias attitude.
This act represented exactly the power balance between the two.
No worries, your father had also done a good job. It was also thanks to him that I could prepare myself to face Earl Salzberg.
By no ans was that flattery.
When he received a secret ssage from Zaku Mistel, he doubted his own sanity.
- From now on, this father and child will serve my lord with our utmost loyalty.
Once again Yuria lowered her head toward Ryouma.
(So far, she didnt show any suspicious move. Genou himself had said that I could use her as it is But well you know)
Baron Mikoshiba only had a small number of people who could perform office work.
And literacy in this world was extrely low.
Most commoners could not write their own na.
Naturally, to perform daily necessities, they are still able to perform basic arithtic.
However, people doing dostic affairs need to be able to perform calculation along with reading and writing letters. -
mbers of Red Lion such as Lione and Bolts, he knew he could trust them and their fighting ability was also high, but they were unsuitable when it cos to docunt work.
In such circumstances, it can be said the existence of a parent and child, Zaku Mistel and Yuria, was sothing that Ryouma desperately needed for dostic administration.
After all, Yuria was already the chief administrator during the ti Earl Salzberg was still alive and her father was a monster who climbed the ladder of leadership within the business association.
Both were competent people and there was no objection in regard to that.
In fact, if the secret letter from Yuria didnt arrive, Ryouma might decide to not gain total control within the ten noble households.
(Afterward all depends on my decision huh?)
Such a thought crossed Ryoumas mind.
Indeed I think I will borrow both of your power a lot. Because my vassals who could perform dostic affairs are extrely limited.
As he said that, Ryouma showed a bitter smile.
I understand. Weve already prepared young, talented people from the rchant association, its just
Saying that Yuria showed a troubled look.
The number is lacking is it?
Yes Normally we would have no problem, but this ti its a little
I see Well, in regard to that, try to cooperate with Simone.
Understood.
The mont she heard Simones na, Yurias face stiffened.
(I see She is worried about that huh? But then, I guess it cant be helped)
The relationship between Yurias parent house, Mistel and Simones parent house, Christoph, was that of a cat and dog.
It was impossible for them to suddenly start treating each other well and Ryouma also had no such ideal.
Please rest assured, I will leave the comrcial area of northern Rozeria to Mistel. Of course, you have to cooperate with Christoph firm as well. Nevertheless, in terms of goods distribution, you should be able to do more than what you have right now.
Hearing such words, Yuria could not hide her surprise.
Thank you very much But, is that okay?
Sure, I dont mind. As long you do business following the law I set
In return to Yurias question, Ryouma answered with hidden aning.
At the very least, Ryouma had no intention of blocking Mistels ability to beco rich.
Since not only the rchants, Ryouma also wanted to enrich the people.
However, it didnt an that the Mistel could do anything, there were limits and regulations.
Ryouma was not going to deny their effort to beco rich, but that didnt an he would allow so people to beco rich while starving others.
Which ans The policy that will be enforced in the future
Yes Currently, it is only in the form of a draft proposal. We still need a lot more discussion to perfect it, but the foundation is already there, please do follow the rules
Hearing that word, Yuria held her breath
In this world currently, business was being done following a contract.
Even when it cos to Rozeria legal system, an individual contract was given priority.
In other words, no matter how absurd the contract was, it would be enforced.
There was no upper limit when it cos to interest rate, there was also no need for compensation as long as it was not listed on the contract.
To the contrary, Ryoumas new law would be completely different compared to this world standard.
There would be an upper limit when it cos to interest rate and a prohibition on forced repaynt.
In the future, Mistel firm would be able to gain advantages, but that didnt an they would not gain disadvantages either.
However, the problem here was that only one local lord would enforce that.
It was extraordinary and abnormal.
(This man is different Hes too different)
Yuria felt fear toward the man who was smiling at her.
I see
When asked the result of their eting, Zaku Mistel nodded his head.
Father
It seems he wants to share the numbers with the people and his rural regulation is also good. That man is seriously trying to create a country it seems. Furthermore it is a country that has never been seen before
As expected That is true?
Yuria deeply breathes so sigh.
Attacking the villages and concentrated the refugees in Epiroz, I guess all of that is in anticipation for this?
It would be easier to register people in one place than having them scattered in the form of villages.
Besides, Mikoshiba Ryouma also had prohibited the refugees from returning to their original villages.
For that, Ryouma needed to compensate them with land and houses equal to their previous one. there was no confusion in regard to that, but it was obvious that it was a heavy burden for Baron Mikoshiba Ryouma.
It was not just for decreasing Epiroz public order and increasing food consumption?
Thats right, it was a strategy where he makes a single move to obtain three things Making the people flock to Epiroz city, then forbidding them to return to their villages, to make it easier for him to monitor the people and lessen the probability that the people might revolt Fuhu, indeed such a sight to behold
Saying that Zaku laughed pleasantly and tilts his wine glass.
Yuria kept staring at her father in silence.
