My Beloved Dog is the Strongest in Another World-Chapter 728
Chapter 728
We talked about the wage market
“First, for butlers. They would be paid more than laborers who would work in the fields. As they will manage not just the herbs, but everything.”
“I see.”
That made sense.
They had to live in the house and view nearly everything their employer did, and had to manage it.
They were also on standby, nearly twenty-four seven. You confided in them, they dealt with guests, kept your finances in order… There was a lot to do.
They were similar to a secretary or attendant.
“We will choose someone for you, so you do not have to think about picking one from the list. Becoming a butler takes a lot of time, and so we want you to have someone with experience. Besides, since you have the Gift, there will be a lot of information that should not come out. There will be a confidentiality obligation.”
“I see… Well, thank you.”
If they were going to hire someone for me, then I would not have to think too hard about it right now.
It wasn’t like I could train a butler. And I could trust whoever they chose.
“As for the salary, we can talk about that when the time comes.”
“I understand. Uh…and what about the people that will work in the fields?”
“It will depend on the position. Those who oversee the fields and the concocting of the medicine will have to be paid more than those under them.”
“Hmm…”
I didn’t really like the idea of ranking them… But if there really was a difference in the amount of work they did, their pay should reflect that.
“As for the people working under them, one gold a few silvers would be the most usual.” freēwēbηovel.c૦m
I had once heard that a month’s worth of food cost six silvers.
But considering all your other fees and taxes, would it really be enough?
I was paying Nick two silver and two gold. Once income taxes were deducted, it was about two gold.
“And the people above them would have several silvers added to that. On average, of course. It can go up and down depending on their job.”
“I see. Are there any bonuses?”
“Indeed… In other countries, they sometimes pay more to those who have children. And also those who live at the place of their employment. The servants here are the same.”
“I see…”
While different, it had some similarities to systems in Japan… Perhaps it was the result of someone who came from another world.
I didn’t know of there being anyone here from Japan other than Mr. Euto, but there might be…
“The child assistance is paid to families who have children.”
“While it was set up to help those who were not able to raise their children…the orphanages are still filled. Though, sometimes it is due to parents being killed in accidents or monster attacks.”
“Well…there is no guarantee that all parents can raise their children. Sometimes due to illness…”

Claire added to Sebastian’s explanation.
I had never married and had children, so I didn’t know much about the cost. But it must be quite expensive.
“In that case, along with the house assistance…it can be two gold for normal workers, and three for managers. The house assistance is three silvers, and those with children will get three silvers per child.”
“Indeed… Two silvers is the average, so while a little high, it should be fine. But two gold and three silvers might be a little too much?”
As I did not know the cost of most things, it was hard to say. Things would have to be adjusted. Still, if one gold was worth a hundred thousand yen, then that means it was just two to three hundred thousand a month… That seemed a little low.
Though, the conditions were good with the house assistance…even after taxes.
While I wasn’t trying to lure people in with money, I wanted them to be able to work without worry.
Furthermore, I also meant to raise the salary depending on how long they worked. Though, judging by Sebastian’s expression, I probably shouldn’t talk about that yet.
Also, there were other reasons why I wanted to pay more…
