The supreme sovereign system

"Who is it?" Asked Alfonso.

"Your Highness, is this a bad time?" Asked a voice came from the other side.

"No, come on in, Taylor" Said Alfonso.

Alfonso had been waiting for Taylor all day, finally, he was here.

"Good evening, your highness!" Said Taylor with a bow.

"I am sorry to interrupt; however, I need to speak with you about the matters of yesterday" Continued Taylor.

"Good evening to you too, so, have you made a decision?" Asked Alfonso.

"Yes, I thought a lot about this, about the decisions you make… and I made a conclusion" Said Taylor.

"Continue" Said Alfonso.

"Your Highness…"

Taylor Kneeled in front of Alfonso.

"For giving me this huge responsibility confirms your trust in me, for the words of yesterday, I apologize, I was blind and didn't see the bigger picture," Said Taylor.

Alfonso heard the words of Taylor and smiled internally.

"My eyes didn't deceive me, Taylor is really the man I was looking for" Though Alfonso.

"Ho? Do you mind explaining further?" Said Alfonso.

"I thought a lot about what you say, you said yourself that sometimes, you also made mistakes, however, you didn't say that you were mistaken this time, so, based on what I know about your highness, you may get to a wrong decision, however, you train of thoughts are always in the right foot, yes, is true that the position of minister would have been better for me, however, you want to put my abilities further, If I stayed in the minister position, I would be stuck in what I always do forever, however, the right now, I am in the minister of economics, or, to be more precise, in the commerce part!" Said Taylor.

Alfonso stood up and nodded, he made a gesture for Taylor to take a sit and he stood up. He went to his library and took a bunch of papers, these papers were writing by him these past few days, Alfonso put in the table and looked at Taylor with a satisfied smile.

"Taylor, you are an excellent scholar and even better parent, however, what you have the most is the will to learn and never be satisfied, I detected that since the moment we meet, as for the reason… well, let's just say that you remain me a certain acquaintance of mine" Said Alfonso while remembered his days as a university student.

"Marco, you were one of the most incredible people I knew, your perseverance always surprised me, even when you were a widower, you always put your son first second and third in your life, however, that didn't stop you in your professional career, hehe, I still remembered that time when you became my boss for some time, I really admired you"

Alfonso didn't have a lot of friend in his previous life, in total, he had five, and each of them was very precious to him, Marco was one of the pals he met at university back in his firsts years, he was a little older than him and was married with a son, however, that didn't stop him for following his dream to become an engineer, he and Alfonso met coincidently in a bar near the campus, the funniest thing was, that they didn't have anything in common, only one thing, soccer. It turned out that both of them were fans of the Arsenal football club.

"The first time we met we were so drunk that we ended sleeping on the street" Though Alfonso with happiness and sorrow.

"Those happy days won't come back, but that how life is… you were the one who told me that, no matter what obstacle you have in the way, your sight always had to be in front, just when you felt that there is no more road, you can turn back and see with a smile what you build with your own hands"

Alfonso was absorbed in the nostalgic feeling of his past life.

He took a long and deep breath and put himself together.

This wasn't the time to be nostalgic after all.

"As you say, the position you are in is extremely important, you basically will be in charge of all the money that flux in and out here, you will be also the one who regulates the taxes and commerce with the merchants, you may even need to commerce with some lord like Felio, that's why, you must be mentally prepared for all of this, I wouldn't put someone who I have even the tiny bit of doubt in his or her character, I trust you completely, I know that you won't disappoint me" Said Alfonso.

He signaled the papers and took one of them.

"The problem here is… I don't know much about economy, I only know the basics, I would have liked to send you to study for a couple of months to Dragon city, however, I don't have the royalty name anymore and we don't time, so I used every single knowledge that I had to make these small essay for you, it contains eleven papers of all I know, the rest will be up to you to complete, however, you won't be alone" Said Alfonso while making a gesture.

Suddenly, at the door, someone appeared.

"Mister Artemis!" Said Taylor.

"Did you bring him?" Asked Alfonso.

"Yes" Said Artemis.

She opened the door and behind it, Little Pit showed his little head.

"Dad~ Uncle~ , this big brother said that you had some times to talk?" Said Little Pit.

"Your Highness, this…" Said Taylor confused.

"Artemis is the best hunter here, she may not know a lot, however, in terms of the quality and quantity of the products we are going to sell, nobody is better than him, also, he is the most qualify person to talk you about the process of conservation and all sort of things, I also send a message to Hygiea, she will be here in a moment, she will also talk about the other products we will be selling, little Pit will help you in the mathematic formulas you will need, he would only give you the process and the way of resolving the formulas, the way to interpret them and pass the values to real life circumstances will be up to you, however, don't worry, On this papers are some theory behind the basics of economics and commerce, I am sure that you will be able to come with a solution yourself" Said Alfonso.

"I promise to be up to your expectations!" Said Taylor.

"Good, let's begin them, the nigh is long and we have short time!" Said Alfonso.

Just like that, the five of them studied and discussed all night to come to a decision about the commerce in Wasteland Valley.
