《Legacy: Lord Alba》Change the Model

Audrey nodded at Alexander's idea, and said, "Yes, I think we should put out a personal search ad."
But Alexander did not agree, "Audrey is very risky to hire people, the most likely is that several people will send spies to know where to get the clothes.
Frey also thought the same as Alexander, so Audrey could only furrow her eyebrows: "So if we can't hire, what do we do?"
Alexander said: "We must buy slaves, after all, they cannot betray us."
What Alexander said was true, usually, slaves depend on their masters to live, they would provide basic needs, among other things.
By buying slaves, they would be branded with the brand of the family that bought them, so they could no longer run away. Even if they ran away, they couldn't find jobs or a way to survive. Many people were dedicated to hunting Escapees slaves. Therefore it would be complicated for them to betray their masters.
Audrey was against it because she was also a slave.
But Alexander said, "Audrey, you don't have to worry, we're not going to make them work to death. The only thing they'll do is attend to the store, among other small things that take time."
"Just think about it, if we don't buy them ourselves, that doesn't mean that others don't buy them, and they can make them work to death."
Hearing those words, Audrey, though reluctantly, was convinced.
Alexander nodded, and said, "Well, then tomorrow we'll go buy some slaves."
Audrey was a little surprised: "Young master, will you go too?"
Alexander replied: "Of course, you are my mother's assistant, I also need an assistant. I think it's time to get one."
Audrey was a little upset about that, but she knew it was true. So she was quiet. Accepting it quietly.

Seeing the silence from the other side the continued theme: "Now, we have to make a change in my mother's business model."
Audrey asked, "Why? We're doing great, I don't see any reason to change."
Alexander negotiates with his head, "Exactly why we must change the model. We are doing too well, for now, none of the great merchants have come into contact with us, but when they do. They'll do everything they can to own the method we have."
Audrey began to understand the problem, so I ask, "Young master, so what do you propose?"
Alexander said, "Simple. I propose to change our customers, instead of being competitive for other clothing stores, make them our customers. Charging a flat fee per garment, to make it like the one we sell."
Then, Frey who was listening, his eyes began to glow and said: "In doing so, any merchant who tries to obtain the method for himself will be stopped by others. After all, none will allow anything that is already public to become private. Plus it didn't affect business revenue, it might even go up."
Audrey, after hearing Frey's words, His eyes began to glow. But soon after he saw Alexander and said, "But, the young master in doing this, he has something else in mind, doesn't he?"
That aroused Frey's interest, so he saw Alexander in silence, waiting for his answer.
Alexander only smiled weakly and said: "A lot of Walter's business is based on selling clothes, I think we should return the favor for what he did to us a month ago."
So the pair understood, This method not only gives them the above benefits, but they can also deal with an enemy and sink him in their game. The two couldn't help but sigh, They had to learn from this child.

Frey could only sigh inside, He thought the third prince would be an excellent King but He also knew that with his ability, A small place like the Alba Kingdom could not keep him. One day he'd leave.
After that, the three of them put the finishing touches on the plans for the store.
So they moved on to the next topic. The arrest warrants.
Many think they should be worried, but on the contrary, they were very relaxed. Alexander had already told Audrey what to do. There were only a few things left to do.
Alexander said, "Audrey, pass me a piece of paper and a pencil."
Audrey didn't take long, she got up from the couch and it was because of what her young master told her. After a couple of minutes, he came back with a pencil and paper.
Alexander took the paper and wrote a few ingredients on it and said, "Audrey please buy these ingredients. In addition to buying an Alchemy cauldron, if you don't find one you buy a normal one."
Frey, who was listening, was surprised when what was happening. But he chose to remain silent. During this month he had received the guide of the third prince, so although he was surprised he did not find it strange.
Audrey saw the ingredients and was surprised, Something embarrassed said: "Young master, where can I get these ingredients?"

The Rocky Shore
This is a LitRPG series. Every story you read here takes place in the same virtual world, with the same rules and limitations. Characters will travel, explore vast and dangerous realms, overcome obstacles, meet one another, enter into conflicts with one another, forge alliances, make horrible mistakes, and occasionally just die. A technological singularity has been achieved, and humanity has been trapped in a virtual world by a super-intelligent, self-improving artificial intelligence. This program is not malicious at all. In fact, it desires nothing except the happiness and fulfillment of every human it has copied into itself. If its decisions seem strange to you, that's only because its reasoning is far beyond ours. It recognizes that humans cannot be happy without enemies to overcome and goals to achieve, as well as the possibility of failure and death. The world it has created may be heaven or hell, depending on the free choices of the people it contains. The non-player characters who live in this realm have no idea that they are part of a vast computer system. They seem real enough, but there is no way to tell if they are truly self-aware. Even the system that created them isn't certain. This is world in which all the things that humans are used to dealing with in the abstract: skills, talents, knowledge, reputation, social status, morality, even love, exist as readable statistics that players can see and interact with objectively. This has many curious and complex effects on how people perceive themselves and the world around them. A few quick notes on the system: -Death is permanent -The system interface can only be accessed at certain locations. -Magic of diverse kinds is available and useful, but is not a good substitute for skills, physicallity, or mental prowess. Non-magical characters are common and competitive. -There is no inventory system. Characters must physically carry everything they wish to have on their person. -Healing is slow and difficult. Magical Healing is all but unheard of. Protagonists: Raymond Garrison- A man in his late twenties who used to work as a forklift operator in Idaho. His path leads him to work as a mercenary, protecting a small community of humans and goblins from the Seelie Fae who wish to exterminate them. Patricia Chandler- A elderly British woman who arrives in this new world with her grandson Kyle and her granddaughter Elizabeth. Never having dealt with rpg game mechanics before, she is in for a rough time, but she is determined to keep her grandkids alive in a world full of danger and evil. Jamil Mesbah- An Egyptian woman who once worked as a technical writer. Her path leads into a vast and hostile forest, where she must master both her magical abilities and her survival skills in order to succeed. Enjoy your travels, friends.

Anathema
The Prince used to dance — until he discovered the strings moving his legs. The Rebel used to hope — until reality slammed a door in her face. The Spy used to live for nothing but money — until he found himself a family. And the Slave craved freedom more than air — until a small hand reached to her for help. Eskela has known conflict for centuries. War had been engrained into the very soil of every one of the eight kingdoms, and blood has been smeared over history to paint a lie. When young prince Aldric, heir to the Aguki throne, learns his position is nothing but a farce, his world crumbles down around him. As he tries desperately to find power in a world determined to rob him of it, his cousin Rhiann plots to find freedom through more extreme and destructive means. Conflict does not reside in Cinthra alone, though. Erden, newly hired spymaster for the crown prince of Promnir, is tasked with keeping an eye on the kingdom’s council. The job that was supposed to just be about money quickly spirals into a fierce loyalty, one that leads him to the front lines in order to desperately prevent another war from beginning. Azala, a slave bought by the royal family of Azmosir, finds her loyalty is not nearly as solidified as that of Erden’s. But while the prince she serves plots to steal that which does not belong to him and the queen she respects holds on to a lingering desire for revenge, Azala realizes that she must choose whom to save: herself or Azmosir's defenseless and young princess.
