Chapter 729
The working conditions in this world were not very good
“If I am going to hire people to work in the fields, that means I have to tell them about the Gift, right? And so I think I will keep their salaries high, as an incentive to be quiet about it. That should decrease the possibility of people leaking the information…”
“Indeed… That would be effective. Hmm… In that case, you should add the Gift and Leo to the confidentiality obligations, as well as a bonus.”
“Wuff?”
Leo looked puzzled when she was mentioned.
“Well, I don’t think Leo needs to be included in that. It should just be the Gift.”
“Yes…just the Gift. They could merely be advised to not spread any rumors about Leo.”
“So, that should do it for now. The rest can be decided later… Oh, I just remembered something. What about the number of working days and holidays?”
“Indeed… Uh, what about making it the same as this house?”
“In general, there are no holidays. However, since we do not want them to be overworked, you can take one day off after working for fifteen days in a row. Though, there are exceptions…”
“When it comes to farm workers, smaller places have no days off, while larger ones have occasional days of rest. Of course, since you have the Gift, Mr. Takumi, you can do things differently. Also, some places give you one day off for every ten days of work.”
“…So there is very little time off…”
Hmm… With servants, it probably depended on your employer, but I understood how it may be difficult to rest.
But I still thought they should be given more time off… Now that I thought about it, Ms. Lyra and the others rarely left.
Hmm… Once every ten days… There would be breaks during work, and as long as there was no overtime, it shouldn’t be too bad.
At least not as bad as it was for me when I had to get up early in the morning and work until midnight. But even then, it seemed like too much.
It should be at least one day a week… Or two days a week.
There had been times when I wished that I had multiple days off so that I could travel with Leo.
“Uhh… This might sound forceful, but I want to consider a system when you can get two days off after five days of work. That should be the standard.” freewebnøvel.com
“Oh!?”
“That is…I can understand, since you have the Gift…but you might run out of personnel.”
And so I made the suggestion. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Claire and Sebastian were surprised by this.
But due to past experiences, I wanted to create a nice work environment.
People should be able to spend time with their families without having to work so hard, or getting balance, both physically and mentally.
“Then we can hire more people. We will be making enough profits anyway, right?”
“That is true…thought, not as much as you could make.”
“Well, that’s fine. I already have more money than I can use right now…”
Before signing the contract with the duke, I had been told that I might make more profits if I sold the herbs myself. But I was making more than enough now.
Instead of carrying only about profits, I wanted to repay the debt that I owed them. I just needed enough to live comfortably with Leo and Liza.
And while our house would end up being much larger than I had first imagined, it was still fine.
There was no point in making money, if I had to worry about other things…
