Office boredom par 3
cp21
On this day John did nothing, he spent the day with his mother, Alex and Iza, the four of them visited several beautiful places, with Catarina's flying ark, they flew over several tourist areas.
Since it was his birthday, everything John asked for was granted.
The next day, there was a theoretical magic class, in the office he read 9 documents in 6 hours, then Alex, Iza and John had sword lessons with Felícia, each of them received a wooden sword for practice.
After 5 days John finished reading the entire pile of documents, after three days Felicia stopped accompanying John to the office, she found it tedious, Ceto only stayed because it was part of his obligations, on the contrary Iza didn't mind, she liked spending time with John.
On the sixth day, John, with Iza's help, organized all the documents in a certain order. For Ceto, it was just child's play, he couldn't see any order. Ceto's patience was already at zero, he was fed up. He looked at John and wanted to say something, when John spoke.
"Okay , we're done today, let's continue this morning.
Ceto sighed, he left and went to Catarina, he complained a little and expressed his discontent.
The next day, Ceto asked before John even began his supposed work.
"Young man, do you know what you're doing? Or is it just the young man coming to have fun with this old man?
Ceto was unhappy, he had already reached his limit, things could not continue like this, he preferred to deal with the administration as he always did in Fernando's absence, there was a lot of pending business, everything was at a standstill and this was the prelude to chaos.
At first, Ceto thought John would play a little and eventually throw in the towel, but John continued playing and wasting everyone's time and patience.
John wasn't fazed by Keto's questions, he was the only one who knew why he acted this way, he knew his behavior was strange, so it was normal to be judged badly.
"Ceto, you don't need to worry, I know perfectly well what I'm doing.
John sat in his usual place. In recent days, he has been understanding the functioning of the territory through the documents, which is why it took him so long to finish reading. As a result, he has updated himself on the administrative economic state of the territory.
In the Venhorst territory, as inside there was the city of Novo Redondo, containing about 40% of the absolute population, then there are the 9 small cities, around Novo Redondo, if you consider the Venhorst territory on earth it would be called a slightly large province , so the 9 cities were like its municipalities.
In the Venhorst territory, there were also mountains, inhabited by beastmen, there was also a large river, called Pindo, which divided the forest from the mountains to the lower regions, in this region, it was inhabited by the water clan, the forest covered most of the territory, yet there were mining caves and agricultural areas that contained a vast area of food production.
In the documents John read, there were rudimentary charts depicting the political and economic hierarchy. In public policy, the order was the lord, the nine noble families, the water clan, and the beastmen, also called barbarians.
In the ecclesiastical hierarchy were the lord, the new families, the merchants, the water clan and the beastmen .
It took John a while to understand his role in the territory, both politically and administratively.
From what John understood, even though it was a monarchical system of government, the regions of the Venhorst territory adopted a subsystem used by democratic countries on earth, in short and concluding, the Venhorst territory was an autarchic territory.
Novo Redondo was the center and determined the general policies, the laws that were in force in the territory were all drawn up by the lord and his advisors, but the regions operated on their own, the rulers could draw up their own laws and policies, under the premise that the laws did not go against the general laws of Novo Redondo.
All the documents were a mess, stacked one on top of the other, so John had to read carefully and organize them, after all he was a Sia agent, not an administrator in his past life.
Before making any decision or implementing any policy, he wanted to be clear about three important points: what the current state of the territory was, how Ferdinand and the nobles administered the territory, and most importantly , the people's reaction to the government.
Any decision made in the lord's office would affect countless lives whether for good or evil, now John knew the preliminary state of the territory, now he could move at will.
First, organize the document system and implement the order of the lord's office, second, visit the areas of activity, the regions of the territory, the 9 small cities of the water clan, the mountains territory of the beastmen, the mines and the agricultural areas , lastly and most importantly, check the people's reaction to the government.
After he had checked everything, depending on what he found, he would act accordingly. In the documents that John read, he saw numbers that defied mathematics, that is, that did not add up. As he was someone from another world with different knowledge, he feared being wrong, so the best thing was to collect his own data.
John spoke calmly.
"Ceto , I will need all documents listing the entry and exit of natural resources from the territory, a document listing all important administrative positions , stating their corresponding income.
" I want to know about all the influential and important figures in the areas of production, trade and resource exploration.
" Organize your debts and debts.
" I also want to know how lower class people live, their source of income.
