Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Pranav
Since the bait I had tossed out that day was quite attractive, and since ained everyone’s attention, countless people signed up for my Great Industrial Party the very next day It instantly becaanizations in the Cloud Tower… I’; that was all obviously made up!
Reality often developed differently froh I ned up for es’ nature to be cautious, or perhaps it was simply that I had been far too villainous in the past
However, there was one person who kept coh—someone who I didn’t welcouardian…&8221;
"I shall be watching you closely!&8221;
Don’t e’s angry justice-filled roar towards a suspect Cher decided to find a reason to arrest me at all costs…
And so, my Great Industrial Party, which didn’t have any members except forfor us for free This was a specialized treatanizations with over one thousand anization under the Mystical Blade, ere unable to refuse this overseer fro as she wished
As for the Great Industrial Party… fine, I know this sounds aard The only property this organization possessed was the Thorn Garden shop, which hy Cher spent her free ti our accounts every day… how could I possibly allow her to do as she pleased!?
Any normal merchant aimed for profits, whichlike account books? There needed to be a minimum of at least three sets One set was for the tax inspectors, one set was for yourself, and one set was for when you were forced to the brink so you would toss that out to sacrifice part of the profits to protect the whole
According to the Mage Country’s laws, all transactions conducted within the Mage Country would be taxed at a 10 rate This was quite a hefty sales tax that would add up, so we typically did many transactions in secret in order to avoid taxes We also made an excellent fake account book, but…
"What? She’s co our account book of e’ve sold to the a all the stock gone from the warehouse as howthe ulation!&8221;
"And do you think that you’re co a fake account book?&8221;
"Of course! Is there any merchant in this world who doesn’t make fake account books!?&8221;
"…At the very least, those of the royalty who are also merchants don’t need to ht over it for quite a while and finally had to adle merchant who didn’t ly speak about her most ancient memories from when she was still a princess, about the royalty ere also merchants and seemed to be quite honest
"That’s because they don’t even need to pay taxes to begin with! They’re the people whose wallets are being filled with tax ry roar echoed across the room No matter which world it was, public enterprises or coovernment would be an excellent way to es in areas such as taxes, trustworthiness, and financing Independent privately-owned businesses simply couldn’t compete in those areas
But that wasn’t the important part…
"Twelve products aren’t listed in your account books There’s at least a minimum of four hundred transactions that haven’t been listed in your account books In less than a week, you’ve already evaded taxes that add up to a old coins Your fake account books areto be found anywhere I’ to suspect that you came from a merchant family&8221;
When I looked at the tax evasion slip that Cher gave old coins, plus another 20,000 coins on top of that as a fine for tax evasion, I h blood and sweat! (Ok, fine That last part was a lie)
"H ability in a roundabout fashion?&8221;
After all,false account books ca that I was far above the level of anyone here Unfortunately, she still saw through o inspect the warehouse and patiently count all the stock one by one, for an entire day, I wouldn’t have been so nice to her and allowed her to co honest with you Although your accounts may seem simple, the mathematical techniques involved have far surpassed any ordinaryyou’re a professional swindler and counterfeiter That’s precisely why I had to resort to non-regulated methods in order to find evidence of your cri ated me because ‘I definitely have coate to the end?’ Do you know that you’ve already broken one of the most basic principles that executors of the law should follow? Innocent until found guilty!&8221;
Even though Cher had a blank expression, likely because she had never heard of this phrase fro the enforcers of the law here act as they pleased made me mysteriously displeased as I frowned
Rip!
However, I was surprised to see Cher tearing this tax evasion fine slip to little pieces in front of round, littering scrap paper everywhere
"I wasn’t intending on using this to threaten you I merely wanted to ask you one question that I want your honest answer on&8221;
"…What’s your question?&8221;
Since Cher used an entire day’s worth of time to findsht noas…
"Hey, stop just standing around and gawking, hurry up and help me destroy the evidence and restock the warehouse! Also, rando procedures, and redo the account books! If she catches us for anything again, you’ll all be paying the fine out of your salaries!&8221;
Yep, in order to avoid being caught in the saain, I first needed to deal with this inore Cher’s expression of condescension uponme, I shall do my best to answer your question&8221;
Cher hesitated for quite a while before she gritted her teeth and finally asked randfather?&8221;
