Boundless Rewards Await

Have you ever dreamed of making your own living, but face too many restraints in your current situation to realise your dreams? Or maybe you have already achieved success, but you think that there is still something out there for you that you have not yet reached.

If these conditions apply to you, then you are a cut above the rest. You are an ambitious, adventurous entrepreneur who never settles just for what life deals him. You are the type that takes his life and subdues it to the power of his innovation, forging new solutions and attaining epic achievements.

Only entrepreneurs of your calibre would be intelligent enough to seek out opportunities provided by the Wijster Manufactories Company. WMC offers exciting careers that yield enormous fortunes to its skilled associates, and now it is opening up its arms to the wider world!

For this year only, you can challenge yourself to achieve your maximum potential through our Manorial Leasing program. All you have to do is lease a manor from one of our cooperative tenants and apply your innovative spirit.

You see, we have collected a pool of enthusiastic tenants who own vast tracts of land that they do not know how to use. They will lease the land to you for at least one year, after which you will pay them the equivalent of this past year’s annual gross of that land’s production. These manors are worked by hundreds of well meaning but backwards peasants, so an innovative mastermind like yourself would surely improve their use of the land to such a degree that by the end you will be set for life!

But do not take our word for it. Last year, William Arkwright, one of our clients and an entrepreneur much like yourself, took control of an absentee’s manor. The peasants on that manor, like on all of the manors that we lease, have been using outdated methods of extracting wealth from the land that remain virtually unchanged for thousands of years. Arkwright’s innovation, scientific management, and application of the latest production methods improved the land so that, during his tenure, it produced a 5300% increase in total net gross, which was all his to keep except for the less than 2% that he paid to the original tenant.

You have the innovative spirit to be the next William Arkwright. Take hold of your life and reap its bountiful rewards. Sign on with WMC today!

During the announcement of WMC’s new policy, Mr. Furbrecht released the following statement:

“All of our associates who participate in the Manorial Leasing program will of course receive assistance from WMC to acclimate themselves to the culture of the Dominion. This opportunity is win/win, as the tenant receives his annual money and our client makes a fortune off of the modernisation of the seigneurial manor.”

[OOC: So it need not only apply to the real estate industry?]

[OOC: You can do whatever you want with the land as long as it is not illegal and the original tenant gets his payment every year.

Edit: Keep in mind that there are some peasants living on this land and you are legally obliged to provide them with a place to live (although you can force them to pay you for this place.) They also must provide labour for you if you so desire.]

(OOC: In case there is any confusion on the terms used here, "tenant" is used to mean a land owning aristocrat, and is referring to the rent that the tenant owes to the King or some other lord of the realm.)
