Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

The next morning, there was a bitter look that appeared on my face.

The prime minister seemed to have worked all night with how dark the bags under his eyes looked.

It seemed like he had pushed himself to the limit just for this one thing as I could see that there was a thick folder that was on the desk in front of me.

From the few parts that I could see, I could tell just how detailed his plans were.

It didn’t seem like the prime minister was planning to show any mercy to the merchants who had double crossed him.

However, that bitter look that was on my face became even more bitter as I read what was inside.

”Isn’t this a bit too much…” I couldn’t help saying this as I read this, but the prime minister didn’t say a thing as he waited for me to finish reading.

I didn’t say anything once I finished reading and just handed the folder over to Haley.

She had been standing silently on the side, waiting for me to finish reading.

But she didn’t hesitate to take the folder from me to read what the prime minister’s plan was.

As Haley read it, the expression on her face also changed like mine did, but it didn’t change as much as my expressions had changed.

During this, I just stared at the prime minister with narrowed eyes as if I was accusing him of something, but he didn’t seem to react at all. He had a calm look on his face as if he was certain that he did nothing wrong.

Once Haley finished reading, she also looked at the prime minister as if she was trying to tell if he was being serious about this.

But the prime minister just stood there with a calm look on his face as if he was waiting for someone to say something.

So in the end, I was the one that broke the silence by saying, ”You know that this will destroy the economy of our kingdom, right?”

The prime minister just gave a simple nod before saying, ”We can just rebuild it.”

Both Haley and I looked at him like he was crazy when he said this.

After all, he was saying that we could rebuild the economy of the kingdom like it was nothing.

It was as if it was as simple as flipping his hand.

Though the plan that he presented already showed the plans that he had for rebuilding the economy.

With the plan that he laid out, it seemed like it was indeed possible for him to do such a thing.

Though it was certain that there would be quite a bit of chaos because of it.

This would no doubt have an effect on the citizens of the kingdom, so I was worried that the prime minister was losing sight of his original goals because of it. After all, he had said that everything that he did was for the citizens.

So I said, ”Are you sure that this won’t affect the people though? Even if we rebuild the economy, there will be periods where the people will suffer because of it. Are you sure that there isn’t a less extreme method of doing this?”

Haley nodded in agreement since she knew just how much this would affect the employees of the company as someone who ran a company herself.

Even if they were hired back in the end, the period of time where they would be out of a job would be very hard on them and their families.

The prime minister didn’t seem worried at all when he heard this as he came forward to take the folder from Haley.

She handed it over without a problem, but she moved closer to my desk since she knew that he was planning on showing me something.

The prime minister took out a certain sheet from the folder and put it down before pointing out a certain thing.

When I saw this, I was completely taken aback since this was the solution to the problem that I had raised.

It was a packed folder with many sheets, so there were certain things that I had missed.

This was one of those things.

Haley also came closer to read it with me, but she had a much bigger reaction than I did this time.

That was because this was something that she was completely unfamiliar with, but it wasn’t that unfamiliar to me since this was something that I had seen before. Of course, it wasn’t something that I had seen in this world, but rather in my old world.

It was employment insurance which would help these families tide the period of unemployment over.

This world didn’t have a thing like employment insurance since it was a world that was focused on the nobles.

The nobles didn’t care about the commoners since they thought that they were beneath them and suppressing them made them easier to control. So if the commoners faced any problems, it was up to them to solve it alone.

The nobles would never take out money to help them.

But this employment insurance that the prime minister was proposing would do the opposite.

It was like employment insurance in my previous world where the government would pay a portion of their lost wages while they were out of a job so they could have the time to find a new job.

As for where that money came from, it was said to come from the taxes that the companies that they were employed by paid. But in reality, it was coming from the money that we would be taking from the companies after we destroyed them.

But the prime minister had also laid out a plan for how things would go in the future where we would rely on tax payments to fund this.

After all, taxes were much greater in this world where nobles controlled everything than in my previous world.

It would be easy to pay for things with taxes since there was so much of it.

However, there was something else that I couldn’t help thinking about…

How could the prime minister come up with such a modern idea?
