Common Sense of a Duke's Daughter Chapter 187

Perception

"Even so ... the notification to the kingdom did not leave us in a good position, even then, I don't see any problem for the territory and I was glad I could move our finance system to banknotes."

"Yes, thanks to Moneda preparing ahead of time we were able to implement everything perfectly, his courage and hardwork has saved me this time"

It was surprising that I had already produced a considerable number of new strategies so early in the morning, even before giving the instructions for today. This will allow them to be deployed quickly.

At this stage I think I didn't know that internally I acknowledged my people potential.

"Well, that's good, that's why he's the right person for that position."

Moneda is a person who can think and act on his own.

Even if Tanya and the others are also like that, Moneda is fundamentally different from them.

Whereas they act thinking about how to help me, Moneda moves by his own belief ... to give shape to the ideal situation.

Therefore, I don't mind him discussing his opinions with me.

In order to establish a bank as an independent institution, I need talented people, I don't care about anything more than that.

"The negotiations in the territory were a mess at first when the new system was applied, but ... 
It was a success the plan of making the big business take away the fake gold and cancel the trading with gold coins while handling only banknotes dealings, that made the originally a mess system be a success."

"Well ... Well ... Thank you. Could you call for the department chief of goods and people? I want to talk with him, please ask him to see me in the meeting room"

"Okay"

Like an instant, a day passed.

There is not much confusion in the royal capital with the death of the king.

... Well it was expected.

The king was in retire and ill for a long time ... for those who worked under him, there is no change.

It seems that it is impossible to prosper with Princess Elle and the Marquis at the power.

Those who had been in key positions under the first prince have already resigned to their positions and retreated to their territories.

Among them, of course, is father and Earl Sagitaria.

Father has a good reason for that as his physical condition is not good.

This kingdom goes bad more and more. ...... Is it the end of this kingdom?.

Ed has started to move already as the next king of this kingdom.

While thinking about that, I look down to the documents in front of me.

...... Fortunately, they haven't set up anything against this territory yet.

I wonder when that will come.

What I was reading now was a report on infrastructure development.

Stop thinking about bad things and concentrate again in the document.

It is genuinely pleasant that what I was thinking of making is shaped already.

If I have some time, I would like to visit the construction site and see its state... Yes, thinking about that...

"We've been having hot days for months, but ... after that, the weather changed and now it is raining heavily in the kingdom in many areas. Especially in the western part. It's a cycle. Every time it does not affect the Almeria territory in particular, I don't care. But this year was our turn in the cycle. "

Suddenly, I remember the words of Rime.

...... Have you forgotten? Every hundred years we had some floods.

"Tanya!"

Thinking about that, I call her with a loud voice.

"Lady! What happened ...!"

Was she in her way to my study? she came too soon.

"Sorry if I called you so loudly. Why are you so agitated?"

"There was a flood disaster, the flooding of a river occurred in the west, including the Count of Monroe territory, causing serious damage to us."

I was too late this time ... I close my fist with strenght.

Stupid, foolish!... Rime had given me the information already.

This is a trigger.

In the western area, the flooding spreads, including the Count of Monroe. The disaster is big.

A lot of crops that were in time to harvest had been destroyed now.

Crops on the market are reduced. There'll be a lack of food this year. There are almost no stockpiles in many territories taking into account that Divan has been purchasing all of the stockpiles.

... From now on, it'll be a hard time for the kingdom. Hunger will run rampant.

"Tanya! Just check the stockpiles of the territory soon, along with that, please bring the data of the population of each part of the territory, then I will meet the Commercial Guild General, please contact him. Let me confirm the safety of the local employees of Azuta Corporation western area, so we can dispose personnel if needed for evacuations. "

"Okay"

First of all, we have to regulate the exportation of food from the territory to the kingdom.

Let's discuss it with the Commercial Guild.

Then confirm the damages to Azuta Corporation.

Think of what you have to do Iris!.

...... I feel a headache with this.
