Damn, I recarneted As A Judge in Fantasy World

Chapter 121: Labor Standards Act [1]

"This is a wise decision. I will implement it immediately!"

He loves working so much. It's not like he can just give me any task. There was a preferred type.

'When the development of Deliat becomes clearly visible.'

Even though he may seem like a total rascal, Kuro Allegan was a true patriot. He works much harder than the upper-level tasks. He doesn't even have much money.

Anyway, thanks to the new governor, the Governor-General's office was running smoothly. Thanks to that, I was able to focus solely on supplementing the law code.

Although the fear was successful, there were still some areas that were lacking. In particular, the rights and obligations of the citizens of Deliat needed to be reestablished.

This was because the working conditions were still extremely poor and the tyranny of the nobles was still prevalent.

"But why don't they want to do this?"

How could it be easy to write a massive book based solely on memory?

Moreover, it was a task that required a lot of caution. Because all of this will have a huge impact on the people.

After all, worrying alone wasn't a good choice.

'Should I gather the smart man together and have a discussion?'

There is a saying that if a modern person were to fall into the Middle Ages, he would be unrivaled in knowledge. In fact, it would not have been easy for an ordinary person to do so. There are countless experts here too. Stay connected through mvl

Think about it. Socrates was born in 470 BC, and Pythagoras was born around 570 BC. Can an ordinary modern person be said to be superior to them?

'You can tell just by looking at me right now.'

Able Carrier's incredible status and personal transcendent powers.

If these things did not exist, would the system have achieved the positive social change it desires? It would never have been accomplished. He probably just lived and died as an unusual medieval commoner.

So I decided to gather the intellectuals of Deliat together and have a heated discussion.

"If the government supports me, I will pursue knowledge like crazy."

That's part of human nature. I'm going straight to Kuro Allegan...

I was about to call out, but I held back for a moment.

'Let's leave the busy people alone and use the other kids.'

The current Archon of Allegan was working day and night. I can't burden a person like that any further. I immediately called the managers together.

"Your Excellency the Governor."

"Okay, is everyone here?"

"Everyone except those who went to the scene has returned."

"Okay. Then please gather some people like this."

While I was waiting, I passed out notes to everyone that I had scribbled down. It says intellectuals from all walks of life, and next to that, their occupations are listed as tax collectors, artists, etc.

I think you know what I mean by this.

But then suddenly an older official raised his hand.

Was it Hosen Mirta? He is a local figure, but I hired him because he seems to be quite alert.

I nodded immediately. It's good that you can express your opinion so freely.

"Mr. Hosen Mirta, please speak comfortably."

"I am deeply moved that Your Excellency the Governor recognizes my humble name."

"No problem."

"It's nothing special. You said people from all walks of life, but most intellectuals are from noble families."

"I guess so. After all, they probably have more time to study than commoners."

"I doubt they will accept the Governor-General's request. The mood among the nobles is not good these days."

"Why?"

"Because taxes are incurred…"

"Aha!"

The nobles of Delia did not pay taxes. In fact, that was human nature.

Even In fact, that was human nature. Even in modern times, when tax laws are strict and surveillance is tight, there are still a huge number of tax delinquents.

In the relatively relaxed Middle Ages, there were many people who resorted to expedients. The nobles of Deliat also evaded taxes under all sorts of strange pretexts.

Of course, I cut it off in one stroke.

"Are they trying to act like a citizen without paying taxes?"

"Most of the native nobles of Deliat are following suit."

"Then what are they dissatisfied with?"

"That…"

Hosen Mirta glanced furtively out the window to the east. At that very moment, I was able to realize what kind of individuals were expressing their discontent.

"These are things that came from the empire."

"Ahem!"

The imperial people were the true ruling class of Deliat.

Even if they were a semi-noble person on the mainland, they could live a luxurious life here.

Because the discrimination based on class was so severe. Probably, obtaining a single business license would be easier than eating cold soup.

they're asking Deliat to pay the profits generated there, are they unhappy with that?

'They're crazy.'

One, what can I do if I have a complaint? Here, I am the law.

They claim to advocate the rule of law, but if they did, they could have just handled it according to procedure.

"I'll take care of those. You just worry about how to gather the intellectuals."

"Are you talking about people other than nobles?"

"Yes, I guess I can just call everyone in the neighborhood who is said to be smart."

"But it won't be easy for them to give up their livelihood. They also have to make a living."

I put my hand on my forehead at Hosen Mirta's answer. No, in this day and age, you think you can use someone for free…

'Oh, that was the standard here?'

To order someone to do something using their authority and then wipe their mouth clean.

Even in the empire, such cases of wage arrears were countless. Of course, it would happen much more often in the underdeveloped Deliat.

In order to prevent such a situation from happening, there was a system that had to be put in place first.

What the heck is that?

'Labor Standards Act.'
