First just to set the stage for my question..
Im playing as the Targaryens in the Valyrian Freehold Submod and my capital county, which i have totally pimped out with a level 2 Valyrian mine, among many other things, and have just recently usurped a family palace from one of the Valyrian Patricians to now make the Targs one of the 5 Patrician families in the Freehold.
But since im now a patrician, all my slave camp levels move to my family palace which make me lose the slave labor modifier from my capital county, thus losing access to my Valyrian mine as well.
So my question is, is there a way i could edit the files to make it where my county still gains the Provincial Slave Labor Modifier even though the slaves are in my palace?
I know that generally, the head Archon will always have the capital county of the merchant republic so they gain the provincial modifier from the FP's slave camps, and i understand the reasoning of why the patricians have it move to their palace cuz not all patricians can or will be landed, but in the case that one is, he tends to be punished by losing out on the huge building cost/time reduction modifiers to his county(and in the case of the Valyrian freehold, losing access to the Valyrian mines as well.)

If your barony holders are rich they'll often purchase slave camp levels even as barons and it'll apply the modifier as they increase their camp levels(The family palace modifier is actually kinda janky since the "Location" of the family palace moves with the owners capital, so when you lose the capital it actually eventually resets the modifer in the capital meaning that even the republic head loses the mines since the slave camps are no longer "In the capital").
Generally I've not gotten far with my testing of this as by the time I'm chaining slave raids for that sweet sweet slave trade money of pausing the game, selling camp levels, then ending the war before unpausing(SO levies dont have time to update, and justifying it as simply taking the slaves straight to market in the capital as I use mercs or such to chain together a dozen wars), my last freehold game cut a bit short before I managed to properly test "priming" my barony to purchase slave camp levels so I'd get the benefit-but as far as I'm aware it should work, albeit it as a workaround.
The ability to "Gift" slave camp levels could be an alternative to this, since you could then just "Gift" your slave camp levels to a baron level vassal and thus benefit from things like valyrian mines and construction costs-alongside the sizable boosts to levy and province buildup even as a patrician. If I'm chaining slave raids I wouldn't mind donating a few to local magistrates in counties I have a keen interest in seeing prosper.

Even though that work around DOES work( just started up a game as a patrician, gifted my mayor hundreds of gold till they bought a slave camp and saw the provincial modifier in my county) the problem with that is, as quickly as they buy the camp levels, they can just as quickly sell them off.
