Let's Manage The Tower

Regular meetings.

Once a month, key members of the fifth floor gathered in the management meeting space to report on the town's situation.

I didn't think it was particularly necessary as an exam aid, but the members of the town told me to open it.

The members of the town first came from the crown, three department heads plus one from the Six Houses, Alec and three of his subordinates from the administrative office, and five summoners.

The management side of the tower has full members.

First of all, Alec explained the current situation of the fifth floor town.

Recently, it began with reports that the population of the town had finally exceeded 10,000.

This number is the number of settlers only, not the total number.

Settlers here refer to those who have dwellings in the fifth floor town.

People living in rental housing are also included in this number.

But apart from lodging and hotel guests.

The point is that the number of residents registered or not exceeded 10,000.

Essentially, the majority of government revenues are covered by user fees for transfer gates from outside the tower and rent for land.

The more settlers there are, the more income it will be for the government.

For now, there is no tax on residents, but it has been announced that taxes will be collected in the form of a head tax in the future.

If you register as a resident, there will be this head tax, so there will be people who will not register, but that's fine.

Registering as a resident means clarifying your affiliation, so it's also a guarantee of identity.

That is why the same method was used in towns other than those on the fifth floor.

Rather, Alec and his administration decided to do the same.

That's all the taxes we have for residents for now, but there are separate taxes for those who do business.

The same was true of those who opened shops individually.

The biggest number of private shops so far are restaurants.

The fifth floor town is entirely made up of adventurers, so the adventurer business is flourishing.

Major commercial alliances aim to run hotels and hotels, something that adventurers buy and sell.

The increase in settlers led to the establishment of a formal force for policing previously entrusted to adventurers.

Most of the members were former adventurers.

The more people, the more criminal activity.

Without the security forces, the town would just be rough, so it's a necessary organization.

But there's something very different about security forces in other towns.

That's where the punishment comes in the form of banishment outside the tower.

After this punishment, you will never be able to return to the Amamiya Tower.

This can never be changed because magical patterns that never change are registered.

Some of them have already been sentenced.

There seemed to be a variety of organizations operating outside the security forces, and they had begun to function fully as the executive branch.

Alec and his colleagues expected that the current population growth trend would continue for some time, as the rash people in other towns heard rumors of the fifth tier of towns and were moving in.

Since it is a newly built town in the middle, there is basically a lot of work.

Migrants are coming for the job.

Subsequently, Crown activity was reported.

With the addition of the Rokuho, a new production department was created.

The department mainly managed the agriculture, forestry and livestock relationship.

Food production for the growing town population was entirely the sole responsibility of this production sector.

The head of the production department was to be carried out by the Six Houses.

Currently, it is mostly covered by purchases from outside the tower, but it seems that products from the fifth floor are also produced, including the portion of agricultural land that has already been developed.

The Rokuho and the others seem to be aiming to produce most of their food only in the tower, after which they are also looking at trading outside the tower.

Rather, the goal would be achieved if the farmland and grazing land being developed became fully functional.

Since the population of the growing town is already woven into it, the arms of the Six Houses will be exerted unnecessarily.

The production department manages not only agricultural products but also livestock products, but it will be a while before you can produce results on boulders.

In addition to the newly added production division, a development division was to be created.

Of course, the department head is Isnani, but the department that has been alone until now has decided to gather other members.

Isnani had been developing it at the management level until now, but it was decided to create a new development room on the fifth floor, including the inheritance of technology.

Schmidt and Alec told me to make this.

Why I said that is because I saw Golem No. 1.

Schmidt was holding his head when he heard about the material used, but it still seemed to be of considerable value and he wanted to sell it as a tower eye-catching product.

With time and effort in mind, I decided to create a new department to deal with because I couldn't help but create and sell it.

Though he didn't use the power of God, he used quite advanced technology, so it would be quite a long battle, but even if he could make something in the process, he could expect quite a profit.

The area was called Schmidt of the boulder, and it was well calculated.

Hopefully, they will be able to export to other continents as well as the central continent.

However, some of the material taken from the tower has already been exported to other continents.

The crafts division has moved some of its work to the production division, and the rest is still active.

As always, there is a high demand for architecture, and there is always a shortage of workers for it.

People are coming from other towns in search of the job, so there may be a good side to the town.

The problem is when the position is gone, but there have been many discussions between the government and the Crown on this.

As long as the town survives, it will be the subject of discussion, as it is not the end of a long story, or even a decision.

Finally, the merchants and adventurers divisions reported.

There are good reasons why both were reported at the same time.

This is because the main story is about the Crown Branch, which was created in the northeast, southwest, and north towns of the Central Continent.

Regarding the branch, the launch was well under way, and the provisional issuance of the crown card was carried out without any problems.

During the provisional release phase, the status is not displayed, but the rumors of the Crown are still well communicated, with a significant number of adventurers wishing to register in each town.

There was also a request from each town to install a transfer gate, but he refused outright.

Distribution from four cities with transfer gates to towns in the east, west, north and south was the biggest problem, but was solved in numbers using adventurers registered with the Crown Adventurers Division.

Not only the escort in transit, but also the investigation of the streets used for transportation were requested by the crown.

Even so, they usually get attacked during transportation, so they hire a good escort.

There was talk of an increase in the number of monsters on the streets at one time, but I managed to keep it down.

As a result of this activity, the regular meeting was closed because the Crown was beginning to be recognized as an important presence for the Central Continent.
