Nova Roma Chapter 307 - Guild Foundation

Flavio got up and took a book from his ledge, which he handed to Idril. "The empire can take care of cities and towns, but we cannot take care of the correct defense of the entire territory.
I think it's time to create the guilds. "
After saying that, Flavio took out a large blank sheet which he placed on the desk and began drawing so that Idril could understand what he meant.
"It is crucial that the guilds are always under the control of the empire if it is not that way; it can be too dangerous for everyone.
This mainly because the guilds consist of armed people who will be responsible for making orders depending on the needs of the region or how much the missions pay.
The guilds are completely different from the mercenaries because the guilds will belong to the state but will be independent.
Each guild must be approved by the empire and will necessarily have a guard of the Inquisition, which will be rotating, that's where you enter the guards will have an obligation to take care that the guild is being correct.
Otherwise, the legionaries will have to be informed so that what has to be done is done, the guards of the inquisition in the guilds will also have the task of analyzing any kind of animal beast or being strange that the members have brought in Your missions
I do not know if there are even more beings who have conscience and intelligence, their mission as the guard of the guilds is to prevent these beings from being unfairly enslaved, the Empire needs free citizens no slaves. "
Idril, with his hand on his chin, asked, "But if citizens are going to be able to belong to the guilds, how can we avoid them being many and that in some future no one wants to be a legionnaire or an inquisitor.
Also, it is not dangerous to let citizens take care of beasts when our population is quite weak. "
Flavio formed a smile on his face "The guilds can only generate income for their members if they complete missions, they will receive money, but it will be everything.
A legionary and inquisitor or anyone who have a charge in the empire receives not only his salary but also receives land and pensions if they die so that way their family does not go hungry.
The only advantage that guilds will have is that they will be able to earn a large amount of denarius, but it will be at their own risk, but not only will they allow the members to make denarius, but the empire and the economy will benefit. "
Flavio took from his desk a small scarf, which he handed to Idril, who realized what was done with the skin of white bears; the scarf was too comfortable to touch and providing heat.
"These kinds of scarves can only be made with the skin of the white bear but now imagine that skin is sold to the craftsmen of the empire.
the not only solution would cause two main problems of the empire, the first the lack of food because also the meat can be eaten or converted into fertilizer.
We would have a sustainable resource of skins which would not damage the ecosystem. Otherwise, they would be helping.
As for the population, it is not much to worry about because they can only operate near cities and towns, I will not send my citizens to fight in the middle of a mountain range 100 kilometers from any city.
When we have more population, Then we could expand the range of action of the guilds in the meantime any guild that dares to go further from the rules established by the Empire.
They will lose his license, and all his members will be disposed of in military courts for their sentences.
But the most important thing of all is that you never allow guild guards to stay for a long time, they have to be rotated mandatory and otherwise, they can be bought and will end up being corrupt.
You should know that one of the leading causes for which any kingdom, empire, or republic falls is because of corruption because people prefer gold coins than their security.
I will say how you should treat the inquisitors because that is your job but remember that where there are gold and silver, corruption will form. "
Idril nodded and returned the scarf to Flavio, who put it on his neck. "Remember to make preparations for the guild at the hands of Taneri.
I'm sure she can give you some recommendations on how to destroy the beasts while saving the environment. "
After this, Idril left the room carrying in his hand the book that the emperor had given him and thinking about how he would have to train the guilds.
Flavio leaned back in his chair for a while his eyes were closed, he was thinking about some things when he can hear his office door open.
When he looked, he could see his little daughter Erendida stained in the face with blue color who had a paper in his hand, Erendida ran to his father so she could show him the drawing he had made.
Flavio hugged her after she flew off to "Dad, Dad, look at the drawing I made with my brother's help."
In Erendira's hand, he saw a beautiful drawing of sticks and balls made with Mayan blue Crayola, which was the whole family, including Amanda.
Erendida could feel how her dad gave him a big kiss on her forehead and then how he moved her hair with her hand. "Its a beautiful draw daughter.
What do you think if we frame it and put it on the back wall so that anyone who enters the office can see how beautiful you draw. "
At that moment, Hellena entered who was carrying Bastet "Erendida is time for your bath, your sisters Amanda and Felix are waiting for you."
Erendida clung to her father while shaking her head "I want to be with dad, I'm afraid he will leave again.
Although I can feel it, it's not the same as having it near me. Besides, Dad suffers a lot of bad things when he's alone. "
Flavio scratched his head and placed his forehead on his daughter's forehead "You have to take a shower when you finish you can come with me, and you don't like to smell of soap and lavender."
Erendida smiled and hugged her father before running away. "Mom, I'm going to take a shower; I want to spend time with Dad."
