Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Chapter 126: The Bothering Master



we spent about three days in Chevron city, besides visiting the Knight training grounds, I also made use of my Time here to renegotiate with the investors who had entrusted their money to us. Moreover, due to the considerable supply of goods that would be sent to the Lia region, in addition, because quite a lot of goods would be sent to the Lia region, I asked him to watch over them.


also, as I promised my lover, buying a hand is in the category of activities that I have to do. I took Lia to the public market in the city of Chevron.he said, he said, he also wanted to give something to his friends.


because I knew they liked sweet things, I decided to buy sweets in the form of sweets that characterize the city of Chevron. this is a product that they used to make even before me and my father were born. I don't know what process, obviously this candy can last even up to a month without being wrapped by plastic, in the world, plastic does not exist.


meanwhile, since Lia was a woman, she bought some trinkets that the merchants used to bring from the empire to resell in the kingdom. it is quite expensive considering the goods made abroad, but indeed the quality of their work is quite good so it is worth the price so much.


after it was over, the next day, Lia and I finally returned to the Academy.

"Ohh, it turns out that you're Mr. Wolf. What made you come here?" Charles was busy reading through many reports and signing some documents when the head of Wolfgang's unit, Wolf, suddenly walked into his room.


in his hands, he carried various small-sized papers containing various reports coming from his subordinates scattered all over the place. A while ago, he had gotten a difficult task from his master. the increase in the number of personnel.may sound easy.yes, it's if their job is only to be a mere informant and does not involve them in important missions and covert operations.


basically, Wolfgang units are units that are formed specifically to do many things and are required to be versatile. therefore it takes very high specifications in recruiting them.not only are they great at fighting, they must also have strong mental resilience.This is indeed a troublesome job, but because of that, they must also have strong mental resilience, the pay they receive is higher than any other agent in VIESTA.


Wolf gave the papers to Charles, which left him immediately dumbfounded.This is a report about the plans of the nobles and the temple to tear down the influence of the Randall family. Charles as a man of frequent concern for the political establishment in the kingdom understood this. From the beginning he had indeed thought that this, sooner or later, would happen.


the Randall family may not have mastered the industry or made certain products, but on the advice of some of the La-Sa Guild's top brass, the, they poured considerable funds to make loans with light interest to small businesses across the kingdom such as restaurants, lodging, and some other fields of work such as blacksmithing, wood and stone craftsmen, and farmers who cultivate their own land.


this makes wealth flow into Randall's territory, whether it is in the form of money or finished goods, unlike service providers who must and can only repay the loan with money, manufacturers can pay their debts in the form of goods, such as wood and stone craftsmen send wood and stone that has been processed to the Randall Region. meanwhile, blacksmiths also used to pay their debts by sending finished products such as weapons and tools for households and farms.that way, the number of Knights who served the Randall family increased in number.


the farmers also paid their loans with money and their crops to the Randall region, which is why since the winter three years ago, the Randall region can go through that heavy season without any significant problems.it also causes food prices to fall so that people do not have trouble buying them.even so surpluses, it is not, randall County can sell their food reserves to other regions that are experiencing shortages.


it made the nobles who were on the opposite side into a drunkenness.Their influence began to diminish.In addition to economic problems, there were much more thorny issues. randall's family treated their residents well.they did not allow the Knights to be arbitrary to the common people.if there was a noble who came from another region found to be doing violence to the population, he said, randall's family will resolutely crack down on them.


it makes the residents feel happy and respectful to the Randall family. As a result, they become more eager to work and more productive.at first this is only limited to the Randall area.but again, once again, they are more eager to work and more productive, thanks to the intervention of Issac who, he breathed rumors that the Randall region was in a prosperous condition so that many people from other regions exodus to the city of Chevron and Romeon in search of luck.


the rest are predictable.Their authority is starting to decrease and their pockets are also thinning. They had no other choice but to go into debt to live their lavish lifestyle, and of course, Issac lightly lent them a loan through his network. that was why the nobles who realized this couldn't allow something like this to continue and cooperate with the temple.


Charles himself was still wondering what they were going to do but at least he already had some idea of their actions. Charles immediately copied the entire report and collected the brand in one file and burned the letter that had been given by Wolf.This is a very secret document so it should not be leaked at all.


Charles clutched his brown hair hard. Wolf was also just massaging his temples.they were equally dizzy with the actions of Issac.they exhaled, looked at each other, then laughed bitterly. It seems, troublesome work has piled up in front of the eyes, huh?
