38 Conference and Plan(Part 1)
Having spend, the entire day in planning and organizing the information and extraction the data from them and finding solutions to them Behemoon was sitting on a wooden chair before a round table as all departments heads, where present here, Michael, Diana, Kai, Jai, Bolt, Kaya, Maya, where also present here, sitting on their respective chair, a round table conference was going on, which will decide the future of entire eastern region.
The entire room was sealed with magic runes and no one was allowed to enter the conference room without permission, as chief guard captain of Almon city was also present in the meeting.
Behemoon looked around the table and stood up from her chair in an elegant manner as she held a thick set of paper in her hands and copies of which were also provided for all other people present.
"Today I have called all of you here to present my plan for the future of an eastern region of the kingdom, you guys must already know what is the present condition of the eastern region, as you are also part of it"
"Due to overtaxing and manipulation of Duke William, economic conditions have become worst and have hit the bottom dead, if we don't work to improve it, the entire region will fall into Chaos and social instability"
Hearing that all departments head nod, they all already know these facts and still, somehow to manage to work till now, but now treasury
is already at point of becoming empty, not to mention the poor crop yield of this year, which have made it different for the government to provide sufficient good to their people, not to mention those greedy merchant, who are taking advantage of government weakness and buying crops in low rate and selling them at other places at high rate, they are also selling to people of eastern region different products like clothes, seeds, and medicine at very high rate.
"You can already understand what kind of condition it will lead to low income, high expenses, the final result is to become poor and starve to dead or become slave,
number of bandit and thieves have also increased but the number of guards in quantity and quality has decreased, because the government cannot afford to pay so much to maintain the security of people lives, leading to making criminals more and more fearless" said Behemoon
"But to stop this all we now need a large amount of money, to pay salaries, to construct the road, and to provide welfare to our people," said Behemoon with a loud and clear voice.
Hearing that All department heads become silent as the economic development head raises her hand.
She was an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman, with black hair and sharp eyes, from looking at her only once, all can say that she is a bookworm.
"Miss Behemoon, sorry to interrupt you, what you have told us until now, we already know,
through you are miss Diana friend, what qualifications do you have to lecture as like this, I only listen to order of Duke, that I came to attend this meeting, leaving my work, if you don't have any solution and only going to waste our time here, please let me go, I work to do"said Alona in a loud and clear voice.
Having finished, saying her views Alone looks at Duke and apologize" sorry my lord, but you must know my workload, though she is Miss Diana friend I cannot find her qualified"
Diana and Michael on hearing Miss Alona's words did not say anything and looked at Behemoon.
"Miss Alona, you said it right, I am not a scholar or have attended any prestigious academy to study economy but I have the solution to this problem, this is what makes me
qualified to stand before you" said Behemoon in a gentle voice as she looks at Alona.
"We can solve, the security, infrastructure, and healthcare, improve transportation of goods, solve the low production rate of crops at the same time increase the income of the farmers
and reduce the influence of merchants on our economy, paying the least price, do you want to hear it, my plan which will instead make money instead of spending it" said Behemoon with a smile as she looks at everyone
Responding to it all nod, they were also interested now, what kind of plan can make money instead of spending it, Alona was also looking at Behemoon, though as a person from an economic student background, she has never heard of such a plan and was curious what she will say.
"You all guys know that, eastern region currently only need to pay, land lease to central which is 25%of total income of eastern region, but starting of this year we also had to pay 20%tax to capital and 10%was taken by regional government for maintenance of eastern region, making total of 55%of people income goes to government, later 20%was about to get added for military service and protection but due to king death and competition for the throne is going on, we only have to pay 25%to Central and5%to Almon city which is headquarters of regional government"said Behemoon.
"So we will you this time wisely"
"so without any delay let me introduce those people, who will work with us to make the impossible, a possibility".
As Behemoon point at Bolt,
"Sir bolt is an old friend of our prince Kai, he is a master blacksmith and also an architecture maker, you just have to show him the plan and take off the cost of materials, he and his company 'MAX EFFICIENCY" will help us in your infrastructure development for zero labor charges"
Hearing that the architecture department head was looking at Bolt, as he was looking at a saint, who in this era works for without taking any money, other department heads also have the same expression, as they never have heard of Bolt or his company.
"I look forward to working with you," Bolt says to Barran, head of the infrastructure department.
