There was no end to the busy days. Ever since Hudson resolved the deficit issue of the first batch of his home team, his marshal's camp was never idle.
Some distant relatives all found their ways to rely on him. People came and went daily, in an endless stream.
Business had to be done, it just seemed a lot more strenuous. Often there were instances of insufficient supplies, which required everyone to source from elsewhere.
Favors, the more strenuous they appear, the more gratitude they earn. Hudson, well versed in human nature, wouldn't overstep at such times.
The urgent sense of shortage continued to stimulate the nerves of the nobles. The nobles who ordered first had their deficits filled first.
The slower-reacting nobles were in a bad situation. Under the market condition of "shortages", they had no choice but to pull out all the stops.
