My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World - Chapter 747

There were more questions to be asked

“Thank you. Um…I’m sure the workers would be very grateful to be able to rest… But I suppose that means the pay will also be less?”

“You are right to worry about that. However, no, we plan to offer a generous salary, regardless of the number of days that you work. After all, I think it is important to rest so that you are not too tired while working.”

“I understand. Thank you.”

“May I ask a question?”

“Yes. Number 3.”

“Thank you.”

Number 3 sat in the front row. I got the impression that he was looking at me a lot, as if to size me up.

He seemed rather tall and healthy. And the sharp eyes suggested a degree of experience. I suppose he was in his thirties?

“More days off mean less work for individuals. Does that mean there is not much work to do?”

“Indeed. When it comes to work, there are things we are still figuring out. As explained before, we want to send herbs and medicine all over these lands. So it is not as if there will be little work to do. Though, we will not overwork people either. All I can say now is that it will be an appropriate amount of work for a day.”

“However, surely that will not be enough? A proper number of workers working a proper amount of days…doing the proper amount of work. Isn’t that the way to manage things smoothly…?”

Hmm. It seemed like he had experience with management. Or at least, he had employed people before.

I took some notes as I thought about what he said.

“When it comes to doing a certain amount of work, it is not always best to increase the burden of each person. Surely you can think of other ways…”

“The only way to do that…would be to increase the number of employees…”

“Exactly. It is not as if we are only going to hire people who are here. We will likely hire from the orphanage as well.”

“Mr. Takumi will also be hiring from the duke’s house. Though, some of them will just be helping to take care of him, now that he will be so busy. Regardless, the duke will be watching the enterprise closely. And will know if there is any wrong doing, such as workers not being paid. The duke takes the trust of his people very seriously, and will be quick to act.”

“I see… Well, if we have the assurance of people related to the duke, then we do not need to worry.”

Sebastian added to my explanation.

The people really did have a lot of trust in the duke…

Also, I guess I really was going to be busy now? I had been thinking about taking it easy in Range village… Well, perhaps Sebastian was just saying that for now.

“May I ask a question?”

“What is it, Number 9?”

When Number 3 sat down, a different person raised their hand.

This time it was a young woman.

She had semi-long hair and gave off a very neat and tidy impression.

“Um, how are the men in Range village?”

“What? Uh…what did you say?”

“I’m wondering about the men. You aren’t terrible either, but a close associate of the duke is too much for me… So I was wondering if there was anyone good in the village.”

“…Sebastian?”

“I have to admit, I did not anticipate this kind of question…”
