Leather Shoe was an ordinary Venice government official. His main job was to provide temporary shelter for the tramps in Venice.
If every tramp were to seek help from him, Venice would run out of public funds. The Merchant Alliance was only maintaining Venice's social benefits system. It wasn't running a charity organization.
These government officials knew the best way to use public funds.
They would help those tramps who fainted on the roads.
This kind of tramp was easily killed by accidents. As long as the officials made sure there weren't too many deaths, it wouldn't create too much of a problem.
Recently, Leather Shoe encountered a huge problem. A lot of tramps suddenly appeared in Venice.
He initially ignored them because he thought the tramps were displaced by the recent war. Eternal Kingdom had a fierce battle with the Hades Devil King, Mammon, near Venice a short while back.
