To do that, he would need to talk to his father. But an image of his parents, whose eyes were blinded by money, came into Kazuki’s mind.
He didn’t want to birth discord among farmhouses and he also didn’t want unnecessary resentment from other nobles. Even if it wasn’t possible to hide it until the end, he wanted to reconstruct the financial conditions to the extent of improving the financial situation of farmhouses, until they were able to procure the required amount of Life Potions by themselves.
No matter how much of a headache it was, to avoid the death flag, he had no choice but for it to become popular.
Suddenly becoming aware of it, Jake, who was listening to the explanation, was staring open-mouthed. Even Norman had a similar expression, and Zen was half-asleep, unable to keep up with the conversation.
Giving up on Zen, Kazuki wondered what was going on with the expressions of the remaining 2.
「Do you bastards have a hobby of exposing such idiotic looking faces?」
「F, forgive me. It was just that I was astonished by the contents of the talks………」
「Though I had heard about it to some extent before, I am in admiration that you have given it so much thought」
(Admiring the idea of an amateur to such an extent, inversely this makes me uneasy………)
Kazuki had no expert knowledge in economics or management.
For now, this was the material for presenting only the general framework.
From here on, it would be setting a limit and polishing out the finer details, but he was wondering whether the 2 reliable people were fine or not.
「I’ll tell this first. I don’t need a yes-man. If you find any odd points, without exceptions, give proposals. Alright?」
Or else, it would be dangerous for Kazuki’s heart due to the pressure.
Those feelings went through to Norman and Jake in a different manner.
(Discovering a ground-breaking cultivation method which could overturn history at that age and yet, having the intellect to come out with a realistic political plan. Besides, not being proud and being strict on oneself, and has an insatiable desire to improve oneself)
(Not even looking at the easily obtainable money or honor, having strong feelings and deep affection to earnestly try to save the people)
–Harold is a person born with the caliber to stand above people.
Intuition close to conviction.
He was emitting the kind of charisma, where one would think of wanting to follow him.
「Well then, the final confirmation. Jake, will you act as my hands and feet?」
To that question, the intent to shake his head horizontally didn’t even remain.
「I will use all the power that I possess for the sake of Harold-sama」
「If you want to be useful for me, work for the populace instead of working for me. They are the weak, who wouldn’t even survive if something like that isn’t done」
Arrogant until the end but always working for the weak.
That way of living was prouder than anyone else’s.
