50 Future Plans for North-frontier town Part II. (1/2)
One of the Villager spoke to one of his friends, ”I believe John will be a better Baron for us at North-frontier town and since he is Grandma Melanie's Disciple I am sure he will improve and help our town just like how Grandma Melanie helped us at times of need when we were in need of Medicine but we were short of it.”
Another guy added, ”That's true, even my father was full of praise for John according to him John was the one who solved the problem of Barren lands in the town and a lot of work for this year. It was also confirmed by Chief Sam and all the representatives who attended the meeting last month for the problem of Farms.”
A third guy added, ”Plus he has also prioritized in hiring people of our village and this has solved the problems of unemployment in the town. My elder brother already works in his Rose soap factory and from what I know, the pay and incentives there are too good. When John recruits next month for his factory, I am already applying and join up with my brother. The unemployment over the years has caused many of our mates from the village to migrate to cities where they can find work and this is also one of the reasons why our town never populated after a certain point.”
One of the guys added with a depressed tone, ”Yeah many of them got slaved in cities due to high debts.”
To console his buddy one of the guys added, ”However his actions prove that he has the best of interests of our village, he has already reduced the taxes to the minimum in our kingdom, it will be very helpful to all the villagers and this might make all the villagers who left the village comeback. If anyone leaves the village for travel and meets an acquaintance from the past, they should be at least be made aware of the current situation in the village and we can help them free up from their slavery if we earn enough.”
”However convincing them to come back will be hard since many don't like our borders as it is always unsafe against monsters. However, we can still try and to do our best and persuade them.”
”It is still better than nothing when Baron never protected our village. It was always us who funded and defended the territory for our lives meanwhile he only squeezed us for our taxes.”
”Your words hold true, its better than that baron defending us and since the village chief and other leaders are in support of John then there won't be any problems with others as well.”
A lot of people heard the conversation between these young men and many could even relate themselves from the events they were speaking and hence they choose to believe the leaders of the village. Later on, the commotion in the village was settled.
After all the commotion was settled, everyone arrived at John's Mansion to discuss the future plans and on how to tackle future problems.
Arriving at the Mansion John was quite surprised to see Vlad's and Diana's. Eric then arrived and explained it to both Joseph and John who later understood the reason for their presence.
