Reforms, I want to do some reforms with low risk of failure.)
I thought of it while relaxing on the cushion in the private tent (previously this was Mark’s tent).
Reformation.
I wondered how many business ventures succeeded with this word adopted.
In spite not studying the strategy and theory involved in reform, “Doing something original is ok” will be a mistake and a failure.
There are a lot of case studies and business intuition that attempted reformation.
There are risks and returns in reformation.
Understanding clearly the risks and returns was necessary.
(Now then, will my management reform be good or bad?)
I closed my eyes as I began to shilly-shally and polished my reform proposals.
“Are the slaves maintaining to clean their bodies?”
“Yes, they really do Mina”
First reform.
Improving the impression towards the slaves.
There was saying that first impression makes 90% of the a.s.sessment of the person. However, 90% was still a lie, there was also a theory that first impression was only 50% of the a.s.sessment of the person even with psychological data.
For example, the appearance.
The method to improve one’s appearance was simple.
Simply cut the hair that became too long.
Because not only the sand of the desert clings to it, they will also look dirty and their impression will suddenly plummet.
“What are this wooden boards? You’re filling the floor of the tent with wooden boards.”
“I decided to cover the dirt floor completely with wooden board to improve the appearance, also when sitting or lying down the sand won’t stick to your body.”
Furthermore, it will be difficult for sand to make contact with the slaves, that’s why I decided to cover the dirt floor with wooden boards.
Spread a hemp cloth on top of the wooden boards, it’s perfect.
With this, as long as they are inside the tent, it will be hard for them to become dirty with sand.
“Umm, however, when they arranged tightly like this, the excrement is stillー”
“Ah, there is a toilet in the warehouse. I told them to put some urns in there.”
On the other hand, since I covered the floor of the tent completely, it was no longer possible to place a toilet inside the tent.
I will have the slaves to go to the warehouse to use the toilet.
The smell inside the low-cla.s.s slave’s tent has reduced a bit as a result of that decision.
Even though the smell of excrement was gone, there is still the smell of sweat and dirt, but I felt that it became relatively decent now.
Putting the restroom outside the tent was still the correct answer.
“Do you intend to disa.s.semble and a.s.semble the tent every day after that?”
“It’s for ventilation and cleaning. Leaving the tent up for so long confining the air is not good, and the inside of the tent becomes dirty gradually.”
In order to impress the customers better, I have to keep in mind that ventilation and cleaning is a must.
During sunrise, when sunlight is not strong and it’s cool, they are going to disa.s.semble the tents and clean it.
There are two things to do when cleaning.
Changed the hemp cloth that was laid on the ground, and beat the c.r.a.p out of the tent curtains to expel the mites.
Doing it this way, it will prevent the air from becoming stale in the tent, and the slaves are not plagued by the ticks at the same time.
Ventilating the air will uplift the mood of the slaves, and I have a hunch that with them working to disa.s.semble the tent, this will also reduce their lethargic lifestyle.
Their environment was in a sorry state until now.
“The amount of food needed will increase right?”
“We have to make it a habit of 2 meals per day of Goat’s milk and the customary Dates.”
“However, if we adopt to eat that kind of meals every day and the religion finds out about this.…”
“No, no, you have to be healthy for you all to do your work, it is useful to the person. With that purpose I’m sure G.o.d will turn a blind eye on this one.”
And lastly, the meal.
Actually, there weren’t many changes.
If I have to say something, the amount of customary dates (Fruit that is rich in nutrients) and goat’s milk was increased.
Mark also seems to have made the nutrition of the food balanced already.
I just improved the quality a bit.
Regarding the quality of the dates, I can a.s.sess the nutrient content and such simply by using the Appraisal Skill.
Because I can select the dates in the slum quarters or even the safe stuff and the dangerous stuff without mistake, I was able to stock a lot cheaply as a result.
Also, the religious thinking was that same food = same life so they cannot eat that way, and apparently, such teachings exist, but I completely disregarded it
I don’t follow religion that much.
The slaves were somehow reluctant to the changes, but I was able to successfully implement it.
That is “We mustn’t eat the same food means we must not consume the exact same foods. Like, dried meat and cheese are weird,” were the poor excuses they gave, but they still went along with my idea anyway
“It might be simple, but each one is a plan for the reform.”
“Reform…?”
“You don’t have to worry about it, this is a private matter.”
Mina had a confused expression, I didn’t particularly paid any attention to it.
There are still much to do besides that.
Like a new advertising method for example.
