Managing The Fief

"So you're saying that instead of throwing it away, they should sell it back?" Rutherford asked with skepticism laced in his tone.

In response, Yvonne nodded and rubbed her forehead.

'This was harder than what I had thought it would be.' She groaned as teaching this man about these reforms was tougher than expected.

Earlier, she had used the simplest example she could think of to help him understand.

The basic commodity that was needed in each household, be it commoner or noble was milk.

Milk was sold in glass bottles which would be thrown into the trash after they were emptied.

According to what Yvonne suggested, the distributors of milk in their fief could ask the people to bring the bottles back in proper conditions in exchange for a few coins.

"If they wash the empty bottles clean and return them to the seller, they could earn a little extra each time." She proposed a great way to entice people to reuse and recycle.
