Today’s picture is from

And so the maid interview day came.

Even if they're a recommendation from an employee, I'm not going to show favoritism. However, I don't think there would be anyone too strange among them since the employees should understand they would be left in a bad situation if they were to recommend anyone odd and I'll be able to confirm nominees' doc.u.ments with the referrers to check for any lies.

And surprisingly, there weren't that many recommendations from the employee.

Well, there might have been the desire to introduce an acquaintance to a good workplace, but there’s also the possibility that trouble will reach the referer if that person messes up. And while there are such demerits, there's no particular merit to recommending anyone. At best, their acquaintance would be grateful to some point.

And then there's the possibility that your acquaintance will end up higher on the hierarchy if you mess up. I guess that would be a bit unpleasant.

Well, then the only person they would recommend, would be about their sisters…….

So, the total number of entries is 47.

Of all the 678 inhabitants of the viscounty, there are 322 men and 356 women.

Are there more women because more men die from hunting and accidents? Roped into a war long ago? Or is it that the women are tougher, within the range of error?

So, well, doesn't that mean that out of all 356 women of the territory, the majority of women from teens to their 30s who are not married had applied?

Supposing that the majority of those older than 17 to 18 are married, most of them should be helping their family businesses and working. Is it okay to quit those…….

No, it's just that working at a viscount's house is that attractive. Hmm…

In that case, there wasn't much of a point in asking the employees for recommendations.

Anyway, the selection begins.

“I would like to improve myself and I can learn a lot here… ….”

No, self-improvement might sound good at first, but I'm not particularly paying my employees to let them study and polish their skills. Education for future prospects like Colette-chan is one thing but there's no need for an investment from the employing side for someone to continue working as a maid… Are you planning on changing jobs after raising your skills at my home?

To appeal, you shouldn’t say what you can gain but what you can give to the employer. That is to say, there has to be merit for the employing side in hiring you…….

This place is not a vocational training center or a bride school.

“Then, the interview is over… Next person…”

“Please wait! Please listen to what I have to say!”

No, self-appeal is something done during the interviewer's questioning. Please express it in a reply to a question. It's foul play to one-sidedly say what you want after your time runs out. Against the rules. Cheating. I don't need a person who steers back 『No, please listen to my story again』 after the conversion is over and the conclusion comes out. That is, say what you wanted to say before the end of the conversion.

“I want you to know that I'm determined and motivation…”

No no, n.o.body comes to an interview without determination and motivation! Because everyone came here wanting to be hired! Are you mistaking yourself for someone special?

“In the past, I used to have an important post in a merchant's store at the capital…”

“Eh, then why did you leave? If you had reasons for leaving such an important post then wouldn't it be difficult for you to work here?”

“Eh, no, that …”

“An earl's family once invited me to work for them, me!”

“Ah~, then, wouldn't it be better to work for them instead of here?”

“Ah, no, I refused them …”

“Eh, if you are dissatisfied with an earl’s house then there's no way you'll be satisfied at all with the conditions here at a viscount’s house. Well then, I'll pray that you'll hear from a marquis.(侯爵家あたりからお声掛けがあることをお祈りしております)

Next person! ”

Somehow, unexpectedly it seems possible to create a database of all the 『pathological liars』 and 『can't be trusted』women in the territory…

In these interviews, I’m taking notes and recording just in case.

“… No. 26, Noel”

About Colette-chan's… no, because there's an age restriction, is she over 10 years old? She's as tall as the 8-year-old Colette-chan, no she seems even a little shorter. She’s a quiet looking girl with silver hair.

“For what reason are you applying to work here?”

To my question, the girl, Noel-chan answered.

“…Because I'm likely to be sold”

Oh, that’s heavy…….

Everyone leaves after the interviews ended. The results will be notified at a later date.

I have to see whether what I’ve been told is true or not behind the scenes.

However, I was shown a variety of techniques as if someone had organized a maid recruitment interview prep school. Like 『Can you listen to my story to the end?』 or 『Look at how motivated I am』 or 『I used to be a __ in the past』, or 『I was doing charity work』, or 『I have already quit my job』 and the 『I have the aspiration to improve myself appeal』….

Maybe I should have said something like, "you are the 6th person today to have used that technique."

Other people would have thought of such superficial techniques too of course, so there's no way an examiner interviewing dozens of people would have never seen them used even once before.

I wanted sincere answers, not tempered bargaining techniques or borrowed words, one's own words, it didn't matter if it's awkward, …

Even if mask yourself under pretty words, it won't work as a reference for recruitment. So, I will employ those who told me with honesty things that are helpful for the selection. Although it's another story if it's something negative.

And finally, we employed 4 people.

Noel 10 years old, Ninette 12 years old, Paulette 17 years old, Rachel 27 years old.

It's natural that there are many teens. Most married people are 17 or older, so most of the applicants are teens.

In truth, it was originally decided to offer 5 people employment, which is much more than the initial estimate. I wanted to secure good talent.

However, as a result of the pre-recruitment survey, it was discovered that 1 of them had misinformation in their statements and their employment was canceled in a hurry. The truth was acceptable if she had told me honestly but when she tried to deceive the employer she was disqualified.

For Noel-chan, I can't say that there was no sympathy, but of course, it wasn't only that. I properly decided to employ her after confirming she was competent enough. If it was only the sympathy, it'll be over as soon as I intervene in Noel-chan's case as the lord.

Noel-chan is clever and thinks fast, her comprehension and memory are excellent. She'll surely become a good maid, there's also the idea that she could become a good friend of Colette-chan who doesn't have anyone near her age close by.

Ah, about Noel-chan's remark of being『sold』, I looked into it in a hurry thinking that there was human trafficking in my territory, it wasn't being sold as a slave but being offered to a shop in the nearby Count territory. With the parents being given the wages 20 years in advance.

No, that's no different from slavery.

It's only natural that Noel-chan said 『sold』. She's a smart girl.

In the Yamano Viscounty, your body is your own even if you are a child and only you can sell that workforce. Even parents cannot sell their children. Therefore, if the apprentices.h.i.+p contract is already signed, the payment becomes that of Noel-chan and not the parents. If they try to take it, they'll be arrested for burglary.

After politely explaining so, it seems that the matter of Noel-chan’s apprentices.h.i.+p got lost somehow. Well, working at a Viscount's house makes much more money than an apprentices.h.i.+p at a shop after all.

However, whether Noel-chan gives it to her parents is another matter. Will Noel-chan give the money she has earned on her own to the parents who tried to sell her? Our servants have access to a banking system with interest.

Of course, if they try to forcefully take money from Noel-chan, it will be Yamano Viscounty security soldiers' turn to s.h.i.+ne.

The blond Ninette-chan has an appearance that's equivalent to that of a 12-year-old. That is to say, she would be seen as 15 years old in j.a.pan and 10 to 12 years old like me here, or rather she's slightly larger than me. Height and chest. Grrrr…

Since Ninette-chan is the only one from the fis.h.i.+ng village among servants, we can have her help with thinking about reforms for the fis.h.i.+ng village's development after this. The opinion of people in the field is important, after all.

Also, I wonder if she can make friends with Colette-chan and Noel-chan…

The 17-year-old Paulette is from a mountain village. Though it's a mountain village, not everyone is engaged in hunting and forestry, it seems that her father is a hunter, while her mother, herself, and her younger siblings worked in the fields.

However, she couldn't find anyone who catches her eyes in a village with a small number of people even when she came of marriageable age, and just as she was thinking of coming to town to look for work and a partner, the recruitment for a viscount house's servants happened. She jumped on it of course.

Yup, well, she feels very much like a young woman from these times. Let’s hear her opinions when the mountain village development begins.

The last is Rachel-san, 27 years old. A town dweller and widow.

She had lost her husband from illness and while she was having trouble raising her 4-year-old daughter, she heard about the recruitment. She says she'll entrust her daughter to her parents to work.

It was her career history that made me think about hiring this person. As the 3rd daughter of a medium-sized shop in a decent town, she helped out around the shop from childhood and was doing accounting, clerical work, and negotiations after reaching a decent age before getting married. I can make use of this!

However, because I couldn't stand separating her from her young daughter, I suggested that even as a live-in employee she can bring her child along, Rachel-san was overcome with surprise and cried.

Sympathy? Favoritism? It's okay, because I'm only doing what I want to do.

So, I ask Rachel-san whether she would like for her child to be treated as a servant's child, as in, as a non-employee; or as an apprentice maid earning a small amount of money, after thinking for a while she replied 『I'll ask for her to be an apprentice maid』.

Yeah, that way mother and daughter can stay together while on duty, and her future would be secure. And even if she changes jobs after adulthood, a 15-year-old veteran maid who has worked in a viscount's house from the age of 4, even an earl from the capital would want to hire her, maybe. Even more, since she's from 『that viscount Mitsuha von Yamano's home』 …

I'll also write letters of introduction, of course. I think they'll have an outstanding effect even for marriage.

With this, the 13 new hires including Colette-chan and the military personnel, Platidus-san's people and Rachel’s daughter, in addition to the 12 people from before and me makes 26 people. Also, the advisors over the Internet.

All right, with this lineup, the Yamano Viscounty will work towards cheat development!

…… I feel like my path has changed a lot from security in old age, but well, if I spending my old age in this world, then making it 『security in old age as a retired lord of a Viscounty』 is fine.

This territory has to develop well and become wealthy and stable in order for that to happen.

Ah, since the number of people in the manor increased more than I had expected, I guess I’ll add another cook.

Now that I think about it, he can't take a holiday because he's the only chef! He can’t even rest if he was sick……. What a sweatshop!

Let's set up a cooking rotation as part of maid formalities and bridal practice(メイド勢にも、花嫁修業の一環として). In that case, the cooks will take turns and have some time off.

Wouldn’t a maid that can make Yamano food be very popular?

No, I would be troubled if others lure them away.
