Helping with Adventurer Party Management

Episode 698: Worst Assumptions

"Assuming there's information leaking to the nobles, Where does that leak information from? The church will be tough around there."

As Kilik points out, the Church is not a sweet organization for information management.

The Church has maintained its current status by fostering the intellectual class of clergy and by aggregating and utilizing information from society in general.

The current state of affairs, which focuses on the effects of the printing industry and is taking away from each other within the organization as a right, demonstrates that.

"Right. Rumors from the artisan's family won't even reach the nobility."

The shoe factory craftsmen have a pause, but there will be rumors from their families, relatives, etc.

But when it comes to whether it passes on to the aristocrats, that's a different story.

In that city there is a thick wall between the nobles and the common people, both socially and physically.

I'm away from my residence in 1st and 3rd class neighborhoods, and there won't be a route for 3rd class neighborhood information to go up in the first place.

"Right..."

Everyone's gaze concentrates on Paperino, who raised his voice "Ah" as they all put their arms together and contemplated.

"The leaked route, you may have figured it out. but... the"

For some reason, the clergy seemed hesitant to continue ahead.

"I don't care if it's a mistake. Go on."

Let him snort, and Paperino slowly began to talk, as he had decided to.

"It may be a slightly unpleasant point... but I think it probably leaked out of the line of the earning peasants"

After a moment of silence, he said, "That's not true!" Hence, it was Sarah who kicked the chair and stood up.

"Kenji can't do all that for you, but he can't betray you!

"That's right. I guess it's a little hard to think about," Kirik agrees.

The desire to deny it is well understood.

But the meaning of the meeting makes sense to borrow the point of view of others, which is not beyond my imagination, and so Paperino's view, which gives an opinion that is denied to everyone, makes sense.

"Well, let's hear it anyway," I urge you to keep going.

"Thank you. The deputies shake generously at the peasants who earn money. But I imagine that's exactly what leaked information to the aristocracy."

Paperino's point made me understand the nature of the problem.

"Negotiating debt? You've got eyes on the peasants."

Paperino nodded deeply.

"Exactly, I think so. When it comes to the business relationship between the deputy and the aristocrats, apart from the shoe factory, there is nothing other than the purchase of the earned peasants. Besides, the deal for the nobility of the shoe factory pinches Dear Anne, who specializes in sales, and the Church is in between for the shoes of the clergy. So I suspect that the farmer's buying caught his attention.

Normally, we don't bother to imitate debt for peasants who have just fled into their own territories. Get rid of it. That's it. Besides, a territory that buys away peasants is usually a lot of land that is exposed daily to monster threats on the border. There's no need to buy peasants on land as good as this territory. "

There are a few points that I would like to argue with, although I would prefer to point them out.

"Excellent land. I was in terrible shape when I left."

"But it was excellent in terms of tax revenue. And there were very few starving deaths."

"There is room for development, although I do not deny that it is excellent in the sense that"

There are rivers but there are no compacts. There is no water wheel for powdermaking either. The fishing had not been done to Loc, nor had it been possible to plant beans in the garden because of too much tax.

Excellent land, can be heard.

Either way, it seems to be true that you got your eyes on me.

"Okay. Let's start by thinking about future measures with the assumption that secrets have been leaked"

When I slapped my hand and gave the signal, everyone nodded quietly.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

"But what am I supposed to think, no matter what the secret leaks or something? In the first place, nothing can be done in this territory away from the city?

Gorgogo flaunted his shoulders and cast doubt on him.

Unlike a city with cluttered humans in it, in the countryside, you can tell in one shot if someone else comes.

The threat of the monsters becomes a problem to lurk around the village.

Normal people don't want to camp in the woods without a bonfire.

"What does Kirik think?

Ask Kilik, the expert in rough things with this hand.

This man, contrary to his hectic appearance and behavior, turns quite wisely.

It was suggested that while rubbing his chin mustache with his thick fingers, he also showed expert guidelines.

"Well... think about the worst first," the captain always said.

"Think of the worst (Worst) case, huh? Sounds like Jilboa."

"Right. So what's the worst that can happen in this case?

To Kilik's point, I'll point and count the ”worst case scenario" conditions.

"First of all, the location of this territory is being discovered by the enemy nobles"

"Sounds possible."

"The enemy is a great nobleman who can't even reach out in the church"

"That's possible."

"Enemy's men are already infiltrated"

To my last point, everyone who was at the meeting opened their eyes.
