Isaac

The Free Trade City has no budget allocated by the Empire, so the city's operations must be covered by its own taxes. It is not that easy to operate a city without a normal funding line. Fort City was one of those free trade cities, one of the richest cities on the continent within ten fingers.

“By the way, how have you survived so far? Fort City doesn't have any money. ”

Once upon a time, he would have run a city with money coming out of distribution, but the only money that could be made impossible now was spent by a portion of the upstream class called the traditional nobles who oppose Isaac and Newport City.

It was also a matter of time before Port City collapsed because some of them were gradually moving to Newport City.

“It's actually quite something you've survived so far. Most of the customs revenue from the Southern Distribution Authority is used by the city to maintain a standard of living prior to the Lord's demise. ”

“Huh. Screw you. If anyone heard that, they'd think I screwed up. ”

“ ……. ”

Because of his symptoms and lack of evidence, everyone knows that Isaac's life's gambling battles are rigged. That's why Isaac's brazen, virtuous iron plate is just amazing.

“But if the distribution rights don't even belong to the city, why take all the profits? Who was it? Zero alone, or the man with Southern distribution. ”

“Yes, and now it's the new mayor of Port City. ”

“You're not in the position because you like him. ”

“At first glance, I heard that my muscles have been forcibly pushed away and the city has been rebuilt. ”

People don't want their standard of living to decline.

Zeroman, who was forced to serve as mayor by such citizens, had maintained the city by raising the tariff on Southern distribution, but the Southern distribution tariff was so high that the situation was so severe that he had to worry about the trade imbalance that he could no longer endure it.

That's why we've come up with an extraordinary countermeasure: the merger with Newport City.

“Fool. Where does it come from the belief that merging will make things better? And when you ask for a merger, you think it's hot water because it's really good? ”

“It turns out there's a reason the Port City boys hung themselves from the merger. ”

“Why?”

“Yes. Regardless of the average citizen, most of the property that Port City maintains is hidden from tax evasion is tied up in Newport City. ”

“Why have they been so quiet? Isn't the real estate high enough? ”

“What kind of taxes would you settle if they were selling real estate in Port City? ”

“Of course it's the maximum. ”

“That's why.”

“What does that have to do with the merger? ”

“The tax rate for transacting with non-residents is based on the decision of the Lord, but thanks to the Personal Property Protection Act, the tax rate for transacting with residents is set by the Administrative Law. ”

“Ha, they're idiots. Do you have to starve enough to pay for a loaf of bread? Looks like you're still full. ”

“Well…… Port Attempted, so I brought out a negotiation card. ”

“Do you even have a card to present? ”

“…… Southern right of distribution. ”

Phew!

In Calden's words, Isaac spits out the cigarette smoke they used to drink.

This is interesting. I was supposed to hand over all the power of distribution to Central, but I didn't care because of all the things that had happened, and now that I'm the director of the Secret Service, the forgotten power of distribution is creeping in on its own.

“Let me ask you a question: If you're going to make such an important offer, shouldn't the parties show their faces? What are you doing? You don't even show your face? ”

Distribution rights are owned by the individual. So the subject of the negotiation should be private versus city, not urban. Nevertheless, it is a negotiation between Fort City and Newport City, and Zeroman, its owner, is drawn to it.

When Isaac asked, Calden replied with an unpleasant expression.

“I've looked into it, and Zero says he's half pension in his current home. ”

“Home?"

“Yes. I think the other three households who took it are leading the charge. Citizens of Fort City have fallen prey to their incitement. ”

“You don't know enough about favors, do you sell them? This is why Humans are not a trustworthy tribe. Tsk. Disgusting. ”

“…… What do you want me to do? ”

When Calden asks, Isaac puts a cigarette in his mouth and thinks: When I heard the sound of the merger, the first thing that came to my mind was, "Is this a trap? ’It was an idea.

Swallowing the current writer is also a choking situation in case of indigestion.

The addition of a merger with Port City may not be able to withstand short-term funding expenditures.

I don't think he's offering the right to distribute as bait in case he doesn't know it, but the bait is too weak.

It would have been a fascinating proposition if there had been nothing, but it is now worthless for Port or Southern distribution. You can bring as much as you want.

“Looks like Fort City is full of jackasses. ”

It didn't have to be now to eat the real Fort Poetry. As long as these bargaining imbeciles have turned their biggest hand over from the meadow, Port City will be bankrupt, and Isaac will have to pick up and dump the confiscated property.

“I thought distribution tickets were hot. ”

Calden asks with a strange glance, shrugging his shoulders without any shaking.

“What? You're not with the Fort Shi guys? ”

“Why would I? ”

“Why did the opposition speak to me? ”

“I had something to eat. ”

Isaac giggles and laughs in Calden's natural rhetoric.

“Good, that's a good pose. No mergers.”

“I understand.”

“I have a call from the warden. ”

Isaac blinks at Rizzley's report.

“Great, when do you think you'll have time? ”

“The warden says he's so busy and so far away that he can't take a moment. ”

“No, what kind of director goes around so hard? That's just what the guys downstairs do, and when you're in the director's office, why don't you just sit down and make the payment? ”

According to Isaac, he couldn't understand, Rizzley desperately took care of his face.

“Hmmm. Anyway, the warden sent word on my behalf. ”

“A message?”

“Yes, it does not disturb the warden, but it does not intervene. However, God asked us to tell them that it is limited to the problems within the human race. ”

“That's quite a complication. ”

Isaac mutters with a grumpy expression.

It may be considered neutral, but it is also a warning that we will intervene at any time if we are concerned about the damage done by other species as long as it is confined to the work within the faction.

Even though I haven't heard the obvious answer, it's a different matter to believe even if I think about it, even if I make an alliance or negotiation magnificently.

If I believe in it and get caught at the critical moment, I won't be able to go anywhere and complain.

So in a way, this level is just right.

I won't stop you guessing what you're going to do, but just don't let us get hurt.

What kind of relationship is this?

“Thank the Chief of Surveillance for his cooperation and tell him to keep his friendship going. And if there's anything you don't like about what I'm doing, tell me immediately. So I can understand and fix it. ”

“I understand.”

Regardless, we've reset our relationship with the Director of Surveillance, so we should be happy with that. However, if this is the case, we should abandon the plan to move the Director of Surveillance to Bilmey.

So to make a move first, I had to make a suitable billy, but I couldn't think of a good excuse. Thinking about whether there's anyone worth messing with, Isaac opens his mouth and looks around.

“But it's quiet. Where is everybody? ”

Until a few days ago, everything that was playing on the roof was gone and quiet.

“An airball? I went to the lake to play with it. ”

“It'll be fun to play on the water. It has a promotional effect. You pay for your meals like this. Is the little one gone?”

“Yes, he's still a child, so I thought I'd give him a break sometime. ”

“I'm surprised you followed me so easily. ”

“There's no way. Julia swarmed, and I pushed her back and forced her to do it. ”

“I don't know if I can get a good rest, but I can see you struggling with this crocodile. ”

“If you know, you should take care of it. I feel like I'm seeing tight threads, so I don't know when they're going to come off, so I can't feel my heart. ”

“Well, if it breaks, that's good. ”

“Ah……. ”

Isaac rubs his butt and says, as Rizzley flirts.

“A rich life is guaranteed without worrying about money for a child's life. But they kick it and they try to go the hard way. If you hit a child, giving up early and falling away is good for your mental health. ”

“You don't seem to want to give up. ”

“That's because the kid is a protagonist. The experience experience doubling event of what the protagonist classes are compensated for is an annual breakthrough reward. He probably won't give up. ”

Rizzley doesn't quite understand Isaac's grumbling, but she seems to be an amazing protagonist.

As Isaac wondered where his business was going to make money, the continent was buzzed by another unprecedented war. An alliance of militia nobles has called for a territorial war, aiming at the weakened Duveron Marquis as his forces grow weaker.

The Duberon Marquis, who was barely recovering after his family was turned upside down and lost most of his power, sounded like a clear wall, but it was a golden opportunity for the nobles in the military who had been under the influence of the Marquis.

The war that began ended with the victory of the late Duveron.

The war, called the Three Days War, which ended in the shortest period of time and was named in the book of history, came with a groundbreaking technique that would change the military system of the empire in the future.

“Blitzkrieg. Crazy. ”

Or is it more of a maneuver than an electrocution?

Isaac smiles bitterly at the outcome of the war.

With a motorized vehicle loaded with troops and supplies, the Allied forces rushed through before forming a front line, targeting only the rear captains.

It was over before the battle of the Territories began. As a result, all the brains who were gathered for meetings about unexpected raids were captured and the war was declared closed.

“Send a line to the festival to celebrate. ”

Despite his unorthodox instructions, Isaac's mind gets complicated.

Weaponizing a vehicle is a kind of paradigm. This will make war patterns unpredictable in the future.
