บท 28: Economic issue
The next day, Alfonso woke up earlier than usual, this was because he felt his leg was hurting, he didn't get used to it yet so he when to his table and grabbed his cane, this cane was just like morphine to him, it could alleviate his pain. After that, he got changed and went to the hall, Artemisa was already there, yesterday, she went with the wolf that she named it one, two, three, four and five.
"Because it is convenient" She said.
The wolves told her that the Jubila forest could be divided in four parts, the borderline part, the outer part, the inner part, and the center part, she and the wolves hunted in the outer part, there she hunted deer. Yesterday, they hunted 5 deer, that was already a lot. Artemisa cut the deer in parts and then the wolves put in the "refrigerator", the refrigerator was the named that Alfonso give to the space covered in snow that he kept his meat. Alfonso wanted to keep meat in the refrigerator until he has enough to distribute to the people in town.
"Right now, we have a huge problem with the distribution of goods, there is not a set process to follow, people here don't "trade" money for goods, they hunt their own food, we, as the "government" don't have anything to do give, the past lord spend all of our reserves and we can't force the people to pay tribute because they simply don't have money, for this , I have two paths now, first, use the capitalist form, the agriculture zone will give a huge harvest in three weeks I will assign half for us and half for selling, I get enough gold, and we start to exchange gold for goods, of course, I will you the population census before to know what jobs are suitable for each family; my second option is to use the communist form, I create my own currency and give the same amount of goods to every family, we already have the prime material for food. Each method had their pros and cons, if we use the first form, we will be tight on money and food, we will have to live with the minimum amount of food, but that's not main problem, the main problem is that people will know that this town have a way to get food, as a dead land, everyone thinks that this land is unfertile, in fact, our own neighbors think that Wasteland Valley will disappear with the horde, That's why I send Ribeiro to buy the seeds in cover, I want to keep everyone in the dark, at least , until we are capable of defending this town; on the other hand, the communism form have the main problem that will we isolated form the other towns, like we are a separate empire, if I do this, people will think that we abdicated from the Leitol empire and I won't be able to life with easy, plus, I won't be able to bring people with capabilities from other towns, and.... There is another problem…. The communism method hasn't worked on earth before... at least….. not with the real expectations of communism, I mean, I prepared to be an historian for along time, studying until I burned my eyebrows, I wouldn't want to gain the same amount of resources as a cleaner" Thought Alfonso.
As someone who was born in the capitalism era, he wasn't inclined to use the communist method.
"I must this carefully…" Thought Alfonso
While he was pondering, Demeter, who just woke up, went to the hall. Artemisa told Alfonso that Demeter always sleeps until late. After she arrived , Alfonso went to the dinner room, and they all had breakfast-lunch, the breakfast was made by Ribi, Ribi was the only servant in the manor, she was a woman of 40 something years old, Ribi is a quiet and polite woman, she doesn't have a family and have worked in this manor for 30 years, Alfonso tried to talk to her sometimes, however, she just bow to him and then go back to work.
"Well, although, she doesn't talk too much, she is impeccable in her work." Thought Alfonso while eating his breakfast. Although he was a lord, after he gave half of his food to the people in the commoner zone, he's meals always consisted in meat with water, with a little bit of rice.
"My lord, we are running out of meat and rice" Say Ribi.
"Artemisa brought some meat yesterday just a little bit of that for today's dinner, about the rice, Ribeiro will bring some in a week" Say Alfonso.
"As your orders, my lord" Say Ribi while bowing, after that, she went to cleaning.
"Artemisa, who is the hunting?" Asked Alfonso to Artemisa who was calming eating a piece of meat.
"Is good, there is a lot of wild animal in the outer zone, I will be taking one, two, three, four and five again today, also, I will be bringing two soldiers with me, they found me yesterday telling me that they wanted to help, so they will be my bags, I will be able to bring more food." Say Artemisa.
"That's great, keep the good work" Say Alfonso with a light smile.
"What about you Demeter? What are your plans? "Asked Alfonso.
"Well~ I don't have any powers now, so I was thinking of going to that Camel guide to teach him a thing or two about agriculture ~" Say Demeter with her usual candid smile.
"That will help a lot, Although I have some knowledge, I can't compare with the goddess of agriculture, thanks" Say Alfonso to Demeter.
After they finish their meal, each of them when in their own way, Alfonso was pondering and pondering about the economy issue.
After some time, he asked the system about it.
[Th system will not interfere with host decision, however, you have to be careful
Of with path you choose, because this decision could make you vulnerable to foreign enemies] Say the system with its robotic voice.
"….. If I want to exchange Drachmas for the currency of this world….. can I?" Asked to the system.
[Yes, host can exchange 10,000 pieces of golds for 1000 Drachmas] Say the system
"Oh!, then is 10 pieces of gold for 1 Drachma right?" Say Alfonso with enthusiasm.
[No, as the system said is 10,000 pieces of golds for 1000 Drachmas, host can't exchange less
Drachmas than this amount, for example if you want to exchange 999 Drachmas for gold, you can't, at the same time you can't exchange 1001 Drachmas, if you want more pieces of gold, you will need to exchange 2000 Drachmas ] Say the system.
"That's not fair…" Say Alfonso with a bitter smile, however the system didn't say anything else.
With this new information, Alfonso sat in his throne, after 1 hour, he stood up.
"I know what to do" Thought Alfonso.
