Chapter 50: Hope of Libra



Chapter 50: Hope of Libra

Kaya follows the guard captain as he leads her towards the meeting hall.

Upon reaching the meeting hall, Kaya found that the City lord is currently standing on stage and is speaking about the current condition and this year's plans for the Libra region.

Kaya who entered the meeting hall didn't get any attention as all people were focused on listening to the city lord.

Village heads and town lords were sitting on chairs and were separated into 10groups each group was led by a town lord and sitting behind him were hundred village heads.

Kaya who have already known about the administrative structure of the Eastern Region knows that the eastern region is divided into 8 regions each led by Regional city under its jurisdiction are ten towns and hundreds of villages are under each town jurisdiction.

So total in each sub-region we have one city, ten towns, and a thousand villages.

Today all have gathered here, to discuss previous year results, their problems as well as plans.

"As we all know that our libra region is worst of all-region in standard of living, agriculture as well as infrastructure but still this land is our home and we will not abandon it, previous year our harvest is less than other years but still we are only able to grow so much that, we somehow survive the winters after paying tax and only have food stock which will more or less last only for 2months.

But I have some good news for you guys that this year you have to pay less tax because of competition of throne, we don't have to pay 20%extra tax to capital, so we only have to pay 30-35%as tax as they will differ according to choose of Almon city command, 25%for land rental and 5-10% on regional tax.

I plan to ask Duke Michael to send some food supplies and that we will pay it back after this year's harvest as we will have to repay it".said City lord.

Hearing that all town lords and village heads became a little sad, but they know this is reality and try to not get depressed as they have to at least less tax this year leaving them a place to take a breath and survive.

Listening to City Lord words, Kaya got a rough idea about the present condition of the libra region.

"Please take some rest, we will discuss this year's plan after a short break," said the City lord and got down from the stage.

A servant came and gave him a glass of water, which he drinks in one breath and sits to drink tea with some biscuits.

As a city lord of Libra City and in charge of the libra region, Neo Bron is a middle-aged man of 36years. He had always taken his duty seriously, even after seeing the hopeless condition of the Libra region, he never gave up and did his utmost to improve living conditions of the libra region, he loved this land in which he was born and is loved by his people. You can see dark circles around his eyes and also his tired body, he decided not to even marry, so that he can devote every second of his life to his duty.

It was at this time Kaya and the guard captain walked towards the City lord.

"Sir Neo, an official from Almon city has come to visit us," said the guard captain to the City lord as he pointed at Kaya.

Hearing that the City lord hurriedly stood up and greeted her"Greetings Madam, I am Neo Bron, sorry for not welcoming you personally, as I was a little busy with the meeting".

"Don't worry Sir Neo, I can understand, I like how serious you take your duty, but it seems like your regional condition is not so good hearing from the speech you just gave?" said Kaya as she looked at Neo.

Hearing Kaya words, he can only feel bitter

and looked at Kaya"What order did you bring from Almon City Madam"asked Neo.

"You can call me Miss Kaya, Sir Neo as for order from Almon city, I have no order but a request and may be an opportunity to your Libra region"Kaya smiles looking at Neo.

"What opportunity are you talking about?" asked Neo

"Are you not having a meeting, I will explain it on stage as I repeat it, again and again, is it boring?" said Kaya.

Hearing that Neo nod.

After the break ended, Neo again stood on stage but this time Kaya was standing beside him.

Seeing unknown persons standing beside City lord, Town lords and Village heads before curious about her identity.

"Everyone, we were about to discuss the plan of this year for the libra region, but we will discuss it later, as Miss Kaya who is an official from Almon city wants to talk with everyone and here is with a special request to all of you" saying that Neo stands aside.

"Please miss Kaya"

as Kaya takes command of the meeting and looks at everyone from stage.

"Hello, Everyone I am Kaya and I here before you to grant you an opportunity to become a part of a change, I am not the only representative of Duke Michael but also my lord Kai, who is one of the candidates of competition for throne"said Kaya as she looks at everyone to see their reaction.

Everyone becomes curious about the opportunity and change that Kaya talks about.

and started listening carefully to Kaya.

"We have discovered a new type of crop, which does not require fertile soil and can grow in any weather conditions, we call it magic crop. These crops can be cultivated where there is enough magic power in soil with use of some special tools and machinery. As eastern region has large magic power concentration in its soil, my lord has decided to cultivation them, these crops look same as normal crops but their time of growth is very short and can be harvested in one month, not only that these crops, yield rate is ten times ordinary seeds means from one seed ten plants can grow, increase the production rate for same size of land, these crops are divided into different ranks depending upon their magic power requirements to grow, even the lowest quality crops and food made of this crops is twice that of ordinary crops as food products from these crops have magic power in them which is very suitable food for magic users"said Kaya.

Hearing Kaya speech everyone was bewitched

and were thinking" can such kind of crops truly exist, such heaven-defying crops, such production rate"all these were going on their mind and also there were those people who have doubts.

"These crops need special tools and equipment to grow and harvest,

seed with all these equipment and tools will be provided from Almon city for free if cost,

Land and labor are yours. But to take advantage of this benefit you will have to sign a contract with me, telling that you will only sell your crop to me, As it's my company which is investing,

think about it carefully, it's a win-win condition,

I will ensure you in name of my lord, that my deals are fair and whatever I said all is the truth,

those who are interested in taking my offer, please contact me, I will stay for some days and if you have any doubt, you can also ask me that time" said Kaya as she looks at everyone for the last time and gets down the stage.

Kaya's speech caused the rise of great debate among the village heads and town lords.

City lord seeing Kaya getting down from the stage smiled at her, even for him it was a great surprise to think such extraordinary crops existed.

"Sir Neo, if these crops are accepted by these people, it will become easier for us to convince others region also"

Hearing that Neo asked"is our region first to get this opportunity?"

To Neo question, Kaya replied "yes, Miss Diana said that Libra region people are most adaptive and open-minded people who are willing to accept change"

"And Sir Neo, this is just the beginning my lord has bigger plans and we will need your corporation in it," said Kaya with a sweet smile on her face.
