The idea that some of the staff might like a change in dwirling in my mind.

Then a thought jumps into my head. With all the skills on offer at Gus's estate, it would make a great training facility.

And all that land surrounding it. Two thousand hectares, surely some of that can be set aside for staff needing land to build on. In fact, why can't the building and development of plots be a part of the training? "What if," I say, turning to Viktor, "Instead of just offering jobs, we gave them the chance to build something of their own? Something they can build on for themselves."

Viktor's eyebrows lift, a glint of interest in his eyes. "You mean.... to offer them a way to be self-sufficient?

"Yes, if they chose that. But I think the whole estate could become a training facility. That would employ the staff and generate an income to sustain the wages.

"That's very workable."

1 nod, feeling the idea solidify as I speak. "Yes, exactly. I'd love to give the staff an option. For those who might prefer it, some land to work, a place to build a future for themselves."
