《Legacy: Lord Alba》Change the Model
Advertisement
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?"

A King in the Clouds
Tanlar. A cruel, repulsive, and foul word. It meant untitled, officially, but it also meant ungifted, unable, unworthy, unnecessary, unhuman. It was more a curse than a term, a badge only the damned and condemned wore. To be a tanlar was to know your life, your entire being, was insignificant. Once Kaizer had resigned himself to such a fate, but those times had passed. He may have been untitled, but he was anything but untalented. He refused to scrape by at the bottom of society. Those who stood above him could sneer all they liked, but he wouldn’t suffer being stepped on for long. He’d be better, much better. But of course he would be. ‘Fate’ demanded it so. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] What To Expect: The story of a boy becoming a man becoming a king + everything that entails. Largely gamelit, but later arcs could be called litrpg. Also schemes. A lot of schemes. I do love some good ol' fantasy politics and intrigue. Minimum Word Count a Week: TBA after Writathon Release Time(s): Daily for as long as I can/until the end of the Writathon. I also write The Deathseeker [Returning Dec 5th]

Valley City. Up until around twenty years ago, it had been a nowhere place. Just a bunch of towns with no real reputation. Now, though, it's known for its progression in medical science. The Medical Technologies Company. It seemed to suddenly appear out of nowhere in the middle of what's now called City Center. Once just a manufacturer and developer of medical equipment, it eventually started to dabble in medical research. Before anyone even knew it, they were the leading research entities, with five seperate buildings in Valley City alone, all towering above everything else in the area. Some say they even swayed the local government into combining the old towns into one city and popularized prosthetic limbs as fashion themselves, but that's just gossip. Matthew Vega. A 25-year-old college dropout, tricked by MediTech into being experimented on under the pretense of participating in a clinical trial for rent money. After being broken out of their facility nearly a year after having her limbs replaced, then having her liberator captured, she seeks a way to dismantle the company or save the one she cares about. NOTE: Currently I am working on a rewrite. I will post a new chapter once that is ready, listed as V2CH-001. I hope you look forward to it.
