After finishing the conversation in the laboratory with the war test platoon, Meyer quit and headed to Andersen.
In the Director's office, Takeo and Viktor remained.
"Well, because my salary will be higher, I thought about the breakdown of the income and expenditure of the Kitamizato family.
This is it. "
Takeo places a piece of handwritten paper in front of Viktor.
"Excuse me... eh?"
Viktor is surprised to see the paper.
“Viktor and Gina's salary was total, but we separated them.
On top of that, Victor has 5 gold coins and Gina has 2 gold coins.
It's an increase of one real gold coin, ah, the rent subsidy is continued.
Ascena and the children also increased the amount paid to the Belte family. ”
With the exception of Gina, is everyone getting a raise...
Viktor says in astonishment.
“Yeah, we all did our best.
I told you before, didn't I? If I get more money, I'll get more money. Didn't I tell you? "
"No... yes... are you okay?"
Viktor asks.
"I don't know if it's okay... but when I allocated the increased amount, there were 4 gold coins and 6 silver coins left."
Well, since this is a case where expenditure is deducted only from the fixed income from the capital and the laboratory, I don't take into account the contractual income. "
Takeshi says with a smile.
"I see..."
"It is the premise that next year's budget will come out of the capital smoothly."
If we can get the money for the laboratory from the capital city, we can carry it out. "
"Yes, I understand."
Viktor nods.
"This is also a draft, so please take a good look and discuss if you need to make any corrections."
"Yes... but I'm getting a lot of money from the institute to pay the Kitamizato family... is that okay?"
Viktor thinks it over.
“Originally, the Kitamizato family and the Alderson family had no territory.”
Yes.
"The territory can be cut off from the income from the territory, but we are essentially expected to do side work like the nobility meeting in the capital.
But Lord Alderson lives in Lord Babington, where we became barons together.
It is easy to talk about exchanging funds and operating in the territory together.
However, if you think about the future, you can't let two nobles run the realm.
That's why Lord Alderson basically can't do side jobs. "
"Hah..."
"In my case, the Elvis family already exists."
Even if you do some side work, your lordship will not be threatened, and the Kitamizato family will no longer intend to take their place because the locals admire the Elvis family, but there are many constraints under the circumstances that the emerging aristocrats are building the city now.
Now, Lord Alderson has reported that he is in need of a royal castle... and the royal capital has thought about it.
If you increase the aristocratic reward in the first place, other aristocrats will have to raise it, and the cost of the Royal Capital will be excessive.
So, in addition to increasing the laboratory's test platoon to three platoons, we tried to respond by increasing the cost of the station director... so this is the treatment. "
"Did the Lord say that?"
"Yes, I've spoken to Prime Minister Olcott at the bar."
The Prime Minister said, "It is the authority of the director to allocate funds to the institute. Please spill the director's expenses from there."
Therefore, this time my salary has increased, the capital will acquiesce. "
"I see... I see."
If so, we will examine and respond as if there are no problems. ”
Yeah, please.
Viktor nods.
"So... it's the laboratory's money, but next year we expect to increase the number of test platoons by 10.
Even if I deduct the expenses, I think there will be 4000 gold pieces, but will they be used for anything? "
“That's the money for the institute.
I'd like to say let's save... 3,000 gold pieces will be loaned to the Elvis family.
You probably don't need to make any extra money, or you can just come back.
And if it was true, it would have been fine to increase Meyer's salary considerably, but the Institute's staff would be paid a bounty once a year.
We believe this is from the balance of the annual budget for miscellaneous expenses or the balance of the annual budget that we have not used up to now.
It would be nice if Meyer and Andersen could think of a maximum of 10 gold pieces and decide how much they would pay. "
"I see, I see."
Viktor nods.
"And then Brooke and Arkin got engaged.
I don't know about that right now, but Brooke is going to retire.
So I think I'm going to think about the job that Brooke has to do. ”
Lord, you won't let me quit easily, will you?
"If you want to become a full-time housewife, I won't keep you, but... well, we'll have to discuss that later.
If Brooke can't do it, you can just ask someone else to do it. ”
Takeo says.
"Hah... that's right.
So what did the Lord think of his profession? ”
"If you can't do it, you say what you want to do without thinking about it right now."
Takeshi started talking.
