My lord is very magnanimous as well, though not in the same way. I do not think the people under his direct care would desire prominence regardless. It is farmlands, so those who tend to it are happy to pay their tax and in return have the young master be a bit of insurance. Should crops fail or other bad luck befall them, they needn't worry, for it is the estate that will provide.
In fact, he is a bit more forgiving than you may think. Between you and I, the tax he asks is much lower than his peers. He secretly has a soft heart.
Well, that, and he is a modern fellow. He sees success in industry, so he has taken up business and manufacture as primary income for the estate rather than simply the tradition of nobility.
