Chapter 336: Luna's shortcomings
Luna's first thought was her own uncle Samuel, but she quickly rejected it.
The reason is not complicated, just one word, poor!
Samuel had money, and it was the kind of money that he didn't earn enough to spend it.
The brave who can be included in his subordinates will naturally have a good salary.
What kind of food and wife, that is the most basic, some of them grow up with Samuel, and they can be remembered by him from birth to death, and even he will help raise his children.
From birth education, to the future according to the development of the child, either to enter the royal court to select a guard, or to continue to serve in Samuel's firm.
It can be said that as long as it is a subordinate identified by Samuel, it is basically a one-stop package from the beginning of following Samuel.
Even if you leave orphans and widows, you can eat and drink without worry, and even because your father lost her life for the main family, she will make the life of orphans and widows better.
In this way, Luna did not dare to ask for her uncle's people.
First, she can't afford to raise it, and she can't afford to give it that kind of treatment.
Not to mention that Samuel can help her pay for her work, if so, who is the person?
Didn't you even ask Silas and Olivia about this?
The second is that with her current experience, she thinks that she can't control the people who mix with caravans and go north and south.
Such a person, if used well, is an intangible wealth, and if it is not used, it is the steel knife that is deboned.
Although Luna doesn't think that the person her uncle gave her will be bad, and she herself is not the kind of black-hearted person who doesn't care about the life or death of her subordinates, but as time goes by, the people who follow her in a few years can only be mediocre, while the people who follow Samuel will be prosperous, and with comparison, the gap will slowly appear.
When people's minds change, it is the same truth wherever they go.
Due to her age, Luna had to take a long-term view.
After excluding Samuel, Luna's second choice is Fleming, whose advantage naturally lies in the army held by Raphael's family, and its convenience lies in the fact that every year there are soldiers who have retreated from the coastal garrison to be placed.
Although such a person has a lot of experience, compared with the warriors who were born and died in Samuel's caravan, there are almost no opportunities to contact large money transactions, and they are used to seeing life and death.
As far as some of the retired soldiers who followed the old Marquis of Casa in contact with Luna are concerned, in addition to the fierceness that has been soaked in blood for many years, there is also a sense of freedom that looks down on many things.
Such people are either old or disabled, and after retiring from the battlefield, they will mostly pursue a relatively comfortable and comfortable life, which is more suitable for Luna's current situation of seeking stability.
But there is also a problem with these people, that is, they also need a good manager and strict discipline, which is also directly related to their years of service in the army.
If there is no proper person who can suppress them, one by one, don't look at the age, some are not good at doing it, but if they really spread the joy and let them go, they can also make people anxious, what kind of drunk and troublemaker, temper tantrums come up, regardless of the fist and beat people, abound.
When the old Marquis of Casa first returned to the royal city, there were many such things on the streets, and the magistrate almost stepped on the stone steps at the entrance of Raphael's mansion, and then it took a lot of time for the veterans to gradually adapt to the comfortable life in the interior, and gradually stopped.
Luna sits in her study, which has been renovated to her liking, Scandinavian-style, and picks up a pen and writes and draws on paper, listing the pros and cons of both sides.
To tell the truth, in terms of selecting and employing people, it can definitely be regarded as Luna's shortcoming, even if she has two lifetimes of accumulation, in this matter, she still belongs to the Xiaobai level, and everything she can think of is theory.
And it is precisely because she knows how to practice and practices almost nothing, so she thinks more and has more scruples.
After all, the guards were meant to live in the manor, and as the manor was renovated, the number of tenants increased.
Luna can't care about other people's homes now, and she can't do anything about it, but at the very least, she feels that within the boundaries of her manor, she doesn't want to see the people inside the manor, relying on the relationship hired by the master's family, to act as a bully among the tenants.
The so-called not afraid of no good things, just afraid of no good people, even if there are some turtle hairs, Luna will admit it, who will make her unable to live in the manor?
Just as Luna stared at herself and listed the rules and regulations that she felt a little nitpicky when she looked at them, but crossed out any rules and regulations that seemed to be unacceptable, and scratched her ears and cheeks, Susie pushed open the door of the study and walked in, whispering beside Luna:
"Your Highness, Knight Monroe is here. ”
"Hmm, who are you talking about?" Luna looked up at Susie, apparently not yet able to crawl out of the pit she had dug for herself.
"Is it Knight Monroe, does Your Highness want to let him in?" asked Susie.
Luna couldn't help but pat her head when she realized who was coming, yes, she had promised Knight Monroe to wait for the manor to finish the renovation and bring him back to take a look, but unexpectedly, she only had three days left to deal with the affairs of the manor, and she forgot to clean it up after she was so busy chattering.
"Please!"
"Your Highness doesn't mean anything!"
As Luna finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly sounded at the door, and Luna got up to greet her, inviting the Monroe Knight into the study.
"On this hot day, why don't you let the royal court prepare the beast cart? It's all my fault, it's so busy and chaotic, it's negligent, you sit down." ”
Looking at the Monroe Knight, whose hair was slightly messy, sweating profusely, and his mouth was slightly open, Luna hurriedly poured a glass of water for the old man.
"Your Highness, isn't this study too simple?"
Sitting on the couch and pulling out his handkerchief, Knight Monroe wiped his sweat as he surveyed the décor of Luna's study.
For a moment, however, he became disgusted with the geometric shapes and shades of wood-colored furniture, especially the bird feathers that Luna framed and hung on the wall as a compositional decorative painting.
"It's not easy, it's all good. Luna smiled and sat down on the extremely comfortable couch, stroking the brown polished armrests of the couch.
She just likes this relatively simple style, but she doesn't pick on herself, whether it is the study or the bedroom where she is a manor, they all use the best materials.
The whole cut natural sponge used to fill this sofa alone is enough for other nobles to decorate an entire study.
"In addition to looking ugly, it's also comfortable to sit on, and I'll get one when I look good. Noticing Luna's small movements, the Monroe Knight sat on the couch with his ass tossed, pleased with the touch that was neither soft nor hard.
