Chapter 425: Let’s get things ready

We’re employing 30 people in total, so we have to make all sorts of decisions.

Sebastian will get 100 gold per year.

Head Maid Maribelle will get 70 gold per year.

Sebastian’s grandson Jeeves will get 60 gold per year.

The experienced maids Mabel, Sala, Anna, Tifa will each get 50 gold per year.

The remaining children will get 20 gold per year.

As we were deciding on their salaries, Sebastian and Maribelle said that we were paying too much for servants. Especially for the kids who will be receiving training as maids, normally they would only be given allowance. We would be providing the girls with all of their daily necessities, so 20 gold is too much.

「Master, that sum is too much for people can do no more than half the work.」

「They can save up what they don’t use, and could probably use it when they want to do something in the future.」

When I said that, not only Sebastian but even Maribelle and Jeeves looked astonished.

「If that is fine with you, Master, then I have nothing more to say, but I worry for the girls if they suddenly receive such a huge amount.」

「Ahh, there’s that too huh.」

I was called 『MasterDanna-sama』 by Sebastian, Maribelle, and the other people who were employed. I said it’s okay to call me Iruma-san or Takumi-san like normal, but as expected, they didn’t accept.

Because of how they call me, Marnie changed from Dear Husband[1] to Takumi-sama like Sophia and Maria do. Apparently only I thought it was fine to just drop the “san”. Even though Akane was already calling me that.

In the end, as Maribelle had predicted, because the girls were terrified with holding that amount of money, so we’ll hold onto it for the time being and would hand over however much they need each month.

「Roger!」

Kaede raised her hand enthusiastically. Our party members’ clothes, down to our underwear, were, of course, all made by Kaede and Maria. The threads were all made by Kaede.

Lulu-chan wears something similar to maid outfits the most. Perhaps it was Akane’s preference, the maid outfits were the type that would make you want to run to a maid cafe in Akihabara, so it was fine if the children got them, but not for Maribelle.

At least, Maribelle, Mabel, and the other experienced maids would probably wear a long skirted Victorian maid outfit.

「We’ll need to take measurements for all of you, so please head to the workshop.」

「Milady, please call me Sebastian.」

「You must not add the san suffix for us servants. Please call us informally.」

「Y-yeah, okay.」

Akane, who was a highschool student in Japan, might not get used to the calling them servants immediately, but she and I will both have to, I guess.

At Akane and Lulu-chan’s guidance, Sebastian, Maribelle, and the rest of the servants went to the workshop.

By the by, Lulu-chan’s position as Akane’s exclusive maid did not change. Apparently she doesn’t want to give up her duty of taking care of Akane.

Now then, I guess it’s time to work with Laeva to make the necessary furniture and magic devices.

1. So originally she called him Master when she was a slave / released, then I changed it to Dear Husband when they got married, but they all came from “Danna-sama”.
