Helping with Adventurer Party Management

Episode 629: The Morning of Departure

I will often stay in the Territory to avoid just a dispute over the Church's right of initiative.

As a matter of policy, that's fine.

And then we're talking about how we're going to run the shoe factory in our absence, including the new officials.

"I'll follow you!

Before I said anything, Sarah assured me.

Sure, except for me, Sarah is the one who understands the shoe factory business best, but she's also the one who's having trouble being taken hostage.

So we have to look for an agent other than Sarah.

"Well, let Claudio handle it."

I have no particular objection when I give the name of Claudio, a priest who is asked to act like a leader of the new officials.

I've had some secretarial moves lately, which makes my job inconvenient, but you should also leave it in the city to keep in touch with the church.

Church officials may also hesitate to do harm to Church humans.

"I don't mind that, but when will you be back? Maintaining the status quo and some problems can be handled on your own, but in the long run it can be an obstacle"

"Well, that's true."

Claudio's point is best, but I want you to tell me more about how long the fighting in the church lasts.

"That's 30 days first. That's all I see. If it seems to take more than that, review the system. So what do you say?

"If that's about it"

Seeing Claudio agree, now we turn to Kilik.

"I'd rather leave security in my absence to the Swordtooth Corps. I need you to set up a meeting with Swivelry."

"Copy that. Well, with this much protection, you can bounce back with some private soldiers."

"What about magicians?"

"Well, I'll talk to the captain."

Indeed, we have no choice but to leave the magician measures to the experts.

"And Gorgogo."

"... I still can't go"

"That's safer."

Gorgogo is by far the best printing technician in the city.

The chances of being a target for church extremists and bounces are actually the most likely of these.

"But there's a lot to leave behind..."

Let Gorgogo make untrained the various tools that occupied the corner of the workshop.

Most of them are near-built crap, but some instruments are as important as the printing press under improvement.

"Well, I just decided to take the tools and blueprints, and I'll have to ask them to leave the others behind. Plus, if you go to the territory, you'll see the mill blueprints."

"Oh! That's good!

Various experts may be on the construction site ahead of time in the territory.

Gorgogo wants it to stop, so it's possible to interact with technologists with the latest knowledge.

Since then Gorgogo has ceased to reveal any dissatisfaction.

It's cash.

"I'm sorry, but I was to stay in the territory for a while. It's called working as a deputy. I'm able to get in touch through Claudio if I have any problems. It doesn't affect my job and wages, so don't worry, I want you to work as you always have."

The next morning, explaining to the craftsmen and their families that they would be away for a while at breakfast time, they basically accepted, although they showed some anxiety.

"Because the small captain thought he would soon become a nobleman. We're fine!

and a working child says it out loud.

That was Toma, though. He's a thoughtful kid who caught an exemplary craftsman.

It's just not a good idea to flatter a little too much.

Words unwittingly jam into the child's upright eyes, trying to easily deny it.

I remember in these eyes.

When I visit the Adventurers Guild, I see a strong admirer's eye coming this way.

Hi, I'm weak in this eye.

I want to play the ideal adult.

"Right. Sooner or later, when you become a nobleman, you'll all have a good life."

Crouching down and gazing at him, the boy claiming loudly with his face turned bright red.

"No! I still get so much rice, I can work with my dad and my mom, and I have a good life!

"Right. But we'll have a better life. That's what nobility is all about."

For a moment, the boy was decent but said, "Yes!" I have replied well.

If the development into the territory goes well, can you feed the people who work in this workshop a little better?

It doesn't matter how useful and worthwhile it is.

Work to feed what's below.

Because that would be the role of nobility.
