My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World - Chapter 736
The servants were talking about salaries
“It seems to be related to what you said about the way you would treat your employees.”
“Really?”
“The salary and holidays sounded quite appealing.”
“Ah…yes, I can see that…”
I had no idea how the pay compared to what they were getting now.
But they would get two days off every week. And without getting paid less for those days of no work.
“Ah, I heard about that as well! Master, you are going to hire so many people!”
“I heard the servants talking about it too. Are you really going to do it, Mr. Takumi?”
“Well, I don’t know if I’ll hire that many… But yes, they will be treated properly. Ms. Lyra, I am thinking about hiring you with those same conditions. Well, perhaps there will be adjustments.”
“You are too generous. It makes me a little worried about the kind of people that might approach you.”
“Ms. Lyra, that is why we and the others related to the duke will help him. We will make sure that Mr. Takumi does not hire anyone suspicious. Lady Claire will help as well. I doubt anyone will slip through.”
“…Yes. I’m sorry for doubting you. It will certainly be fine with Lady Claire there. Still, I hope that you will be careful, Mr. Takumi.”
It looked like everyone had a trust in Claire’s eye for seeing people.
“Yes, I understand that. Uh…and I will be sure to ask you for help, if I need it.”
“You can count on me!”
“Master, what about me? I am working hard here too, you know?”
“Haha. You have a very different job… I will ask for help when it comes to things related to medicine. If I ever want your opinion, I will ask for it.”
“Good. I shall be waiting!”
“Hoho. They are quite fond of you, Mr. Takumi.”
I suppose it was true. As for Milina, she was studying medicine and various other things. So even if it wasn’t the case now, I had a feeling that I would rely on her a lot in the future.
“Ms. Lyra.”
“Yes, what is it?”
“I suppose I should make it a formal request. Will you…come and work for me in Range village? Not in the fields. You will be doing very similar work as you are doing now.”
“Are you…certain?”
“Yes. Your name was on the list that Sebastian gave me. And you have become close with Liza and Leo.”
“Tha-thank you. Yes, I would be honored to go and work for you.”
“Haha. It’s nothing that special. But thank you. I’m sure Liza and Leo may cause you some trouble, but I will be counting on you.”
As she had been taking care of us ever since we arrived at the mansion, I knew her well now.
Outside of Leo and Liza, she was the one I was around the most.
And the house in Range village would be quite large, so it would be reassuring to have her.
Also…I wanted Ms. Gelda to come… But she could also be quite clumsy.
“Mr. Takumi. Are you trying to take our servants right in front of me?”
“Oh…sorry.”
“Hoho. But it is best for you to hire the people you want. So I don’t mind.”
Well, she was on the list, so there shouldn’t be a problem with it.
“Still…the staff here will become much younger. Once things really get started in Range village, it will also be quite busy in this mansion…”
“Uhh…sorry about that. I will be careful to not take too many of your servants…”
“As some will already be going with Lady Claire, it would be a problem if you took too many at once. But I doubt you have to worry about it. Just focus on people you can trust.”
“Thank you. I shall look at the list and confide in you first.”
“Good.”
While it would make things much easier if I just poached everyone from this house, I would be careful to not hire only from here…
