She slept soundly until the sun rose. Tangning was only woken up by the sunlight that shone into the room.
Ever since he came to this world, this was the first time he had slept so comfortably. It was the first time he did not have to guard against magical beasts in the wild. It was the first time he did not have to stay alert while sleeping. It was the first time he slept on such a soft and comfortable bed.
"Good morning, Young Master!"
Sai Wen quietly walked into the room. Seeing that Tangning had already woken up, he pulled the bell behind the door. A moment later, 7 maids were led into the room by Maymar.
Under the help of the maids, Tangning put on her expensive noble outfit." Is Sydiado here?" she asked.”
"He's here. He's just outside the door."
"Does my lord want to see her?" Maymar bowed and replied.”
"Yes!"
Tangning received the mouthwash from the maid and placed a mouthful of fragrant mouthwash into her mouth. A maid cleverly placed a basin in front of her.
" Hua-" He spat the mouthwash into the basin and said," Do you have salt? Someone go to the kitchen and get some salt.”
Sydiado was led into the room by a maid.
Tangning noticed that she looked a little haggard, so she knew that she didn't sleep well last night. So, she clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention as she spoke.
"I have an announcement to make. Hmm, from today onwards, Sydiado will be the chief financial officer of this lord. Please remember, in the future, all financial matters must be discussed with Chief Financial Officer Sydiado.
Spending less than 5,000 gold coins can be decided by Chief Steward Sydiado. Spending more than 5,000 gold coins must be approved by me.”
Everyone agreed in unison, and the maids looked at Sydiado with envy.
Sydiado didn't expect Tangning to actually ask her to be the Head of Finance. She didn't expect Tangning to announce her decision in front of so many people, so she was caught off guard.
She knew that since Tangning had announced this in front of everyone, it was a given that she would be promoted from a lowly maid to the Lord's Manor's Chief Financial Officer.
Under the gazes of the maids, she felt a little uncomfortable. From now on, she was the noble lady in the eyes of the servants.
Under the gazes of Savon, Maymar, and the other human nobles, she felt very uncomfortable. She kept feeling that there was an inexplicable meaning in the gazes of Savon and the others.
Under everyone's envious gazes, especially those of the maids, she felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction, a sense of achievement that satisfied her vanity.
Tangning looked at the scene in front of her with admiration. This was exactly the effect she wanted; to be high and mighty, and to be able to decide a person's honor and status with just a word.
Because only in this way could his existence and value be reflected. Only he was the center of everyone, and everything had to revolve around him.
Going from simple to extravagant was easy, but going from extravagant to simple was difficult. Once Sydiado adapted to the position Tangning had arranged for her and got used to the flattery of her servants, she would start to enjoy herself and worry about her own gains and losses. By then, she would no longer be able to bring up the determination to commit suicide.
Moreover, her status in the Orc Empire wasn't low. She was used to living a life of high status. If she were to return to her lowly servant status, she would probably be even more uncomfortable, right?
At that time, hehe, wouldn't Sydiado be at his mercy?
As long as she managed to get her into bed, things would slowly take a turn for the better. As for whether or not Sydiado was loyal, Tangning had yet to consider it.
He had no choice. There were too few talents, so he had to use them first. He also had to open up the situation first. Moreover, he still had Sai Wen's " Shadow " in his hands. People like Sydiado were the key targets of " Shadow ".
A maid brought some salt from the kitchen. Tangning dipped her finger into some salt and wiped it between her lips and teeth before rinsing her mouth with mouthwash.
Tangning took the warm towel from the maid and wiped her face." Maymar, are the chopsticks I told you about ready?"”
"It's done. I'll get someone to bring it over." Maymar replied respectfully.”
While Maymar was asking someone to bring chopsticks, Tangning casually drew a sketch of a toothbrush on a piece of animal skin.
"This thing is called a toothbrush. It's used to brush your teeth in the morning. It's best to use hard boar's hair as the brush.”
"Yes, sir!"
"This is something new in the Eastern Continent, isn't it?" Maymar said as he kept the sketch. I think this toothbrush is a good thing. It's much more advanced than the sweet water we use to rinse our mouths. My lord, can we also use this toothbrush?”
"In the Eastern Continent, toothbrushes are elegant tools that only nobles are qualified to use.”Tangning replied.
"Just like the sweet mouthwash of our Glorious Continent, it is only popular among the upper class and the royal family.
" However, the Xiongnu are not in the Eastern Continent, so I've given you special permission to use it. It's the same for those who are sitting here. Remember, when you use the toothbrush, don't put too much salt in it. You have to use it evenly so that you don't hurt your teeth.”
Maymar and Sai Wen were greatly moved, and Sydiado was also grateful.
Indeed, in the Glorious Mainland, only the nobles enjoyed gargling their mouths with sweet water in the morning. Similarly, the toothbrushes used to rinse their mouths were also an elegant enjoyment that only the nobles were qualified to enjoy. As the leader of a territory, it was already a kind of grace for Tangning to allow them to use the toothbrushes that were only popular among the royal family and the upper echelons of the Eastern Continent.
A servant served breakfast to Tangning. As expected, she saw a variety of chopsticks on the table. There were gold, copper, and silver ones. Tangning thought for a moment and decided that bamboo chopsticks were more convenient, so she chose the most inconspicuous bamboo chopsticks.
When it was time to eat, Maymar and the others stared at Tangning with their eyes wide open. Before this, they had no idea how these two sticks could be used as utensils.
Under the control of Tangning's nimble fingers, the two small sticks did not delay her eating and picking up the food. Compared to using two hands to operate a knife and fork, it was much more convenient.
Seeing how calm Tangning was, Sai Wen and the others were envious. They secretly decided to try eating with chopsticks.
After breakfast, Tangning used a towel to wipe the oil off her mouth." Sai Wen, did the businessmen I asked you to gather yesterday arrive?" she asked.”
" Yes," Sai Wen replied." I've been here for a long time. I'm waiting in the hall of the lord's residence."”
" Mmm, who are they?" Tangning asked casually.”
"Most of the shop owners in the city are here!”
Sai Wen reported," Those who didn't come were either delayed by something or weren't in the city. There are about 40 to 50 people waiting in the Dungeon Lord Main Hall.”
"There's no need for so many people." Tangning instructed Sai Wen.
"I don't have the time to meet so many people. You go and organize it. Each industry will leave behind a representative who can speak. Or you can simplify it and let these representatives elect a few capable people to form a Chamber of Commerce.”
