You are the money obsessed scrooge who has been placed in charge of the Vanderlin treasury. It is your duty to see to it that the workers of the keep and garrison do not revolt, while at the same time keeping the treasury full. You are also in charge of hiring workers for the keep, as you have a desk at the gatehouse to speak with people.
Furthermore, you possess keys to nearly everywhere in vanderlin, including every shop. But remember, as a squishy noble, you should always get protection when you leave the keep, else you end up at the end of a thief's blade. Steward is an incredibly stressful job, people will ask of you things every second of your dae. If you get peace as a Steward, enjoy it; for it is short-lived.
Essentially an automated mailbox. Allows you to send messages to many places. Good for tasks like requesting things be done from the smiths, tailor, or any other business within the kingdom. You may also send out advertisements for property you might be selling. Though if anyone who sees them can actually read is a whole different story.
The effective remote control of the Treasury, locked by the Steward's key, is an effective means of managing the funds, especially to pay people like the garrison via the pay by class feature.
But that is not its only function. You can import certain things, though it's mostly better to buy them from the merchant or soilsons. You can also remotely handle the stockpile, encouraging people to forage for supplies in exchange for money by adjusting prices for said items.
Ex. The keep needs wood for a project. Raise the sell price of wood and have the monarch announce it.
Another thing you may do is sell your large stockpile of goods for profit.
Ex. Selling wooden planks or sticks, as to obtain funds when needed.

The vault is the physical presence of the kingdom's treasury. Interest slowly collects over time based on the value in it, though if someone breaks in and steals stuff, the kingdom's value plummets. One popular way to increase value is having blacksmiths create statues, the higher the quality, the more valuable.
Allowing the kingdom's economy to flourish is important, As funding is very important for a well equpped garrison.
OPEN THE CHESTS OR YOU WILL NOT MAKE ANY MONEY
The Vault will accrue wealth thrice a dae based on its contents.
Tldr; Put a bunch of gold statues in the vault, and pay the garrison and keep workers.
