The Annals of the Flame Kingdom (WN)

"... well, that's all I've collected."

Two days after the "Radical Management Improvement Plan Meeting of the Rondo de Terra", commonly known as the Terra Actual Plan Meeting, took place in the dining room.

"I didn't collect it. Gathered, of, on my own."

The decorations and paintings arranged narrowly in the dining room the other day and the use of them for what are also unknown deer-like animal scraps. I see. 'I'll get ready. Will you wait two days?' Erica should say.

"Is the gift the Lord?

"Right. This is still a royal end. I don't go every day until I'm given a terra and I have a mansion here... but I've had it quite often."

"Since you lived in Terra?

"That's tight. It was easy to understand."

Friendliness, blood intensity, edges and connections may also be, but aristocratic dating is basically the product of intention. Gifts reach mountains within Erica being a member of the royal family and a person to be brought to the royal family. Naturally so. He is the beloved daughter of the former king, who could succeed to the next throne. Stay in a good mood. That's what you get, no harm done.

... but what if you renounced your right to inherit the throne and assumed the Duke's position? Indeed, the position of the Duke is high. It is expensive, but it is' subordinate '. Even if she is the daughter of the former king and the sister of the present king, there is basically nothing different from other nobles.

"Besides, Terra is the territory you received. I don't remember getting any gifts in the last few years."

It's not something that had a taste or anything for the rest of the nobility. If you don't get enough in return for sending a gift, you're wasting money on a gift or something.

"... I'll give you your palm back by the time it's clear, it's"

"Rather, it feels good to go around, when you get here. I'd rather lose my edge."

I see. That's what I think.

"But... then you can sell all of these items, right?

"Yes. Please dispose of it beautifully and thoroughly. Clean the room. Two birds a stone."

To Erica's words, Kota nods loudly. They tend to say, "Selling assets isn't something you can sell inside," but it's actually not that hard to sell unnecessary imminent assets. The odd thing is, if you don't even restrain yourself from the place of sale, the price, and the way you sell it, even real estate like it's salted will sell as if it had wings.

"... will succeed, this sale will be"

Nonetheless, there is one reason why the sale does not proceed inside. The proprietor won't let go.

Many owner managers tend to think of the company and the individual as all their own things. 'Own to the ashes of the' is a well-said word for a bankrupt proprietor, but this is true. Especially the land that my ancestors passed on to me, the swords called family heirlooms, or the ornaments and paintings that I bought as a sign of success. I don't want to let go of them even if I die, and eventually the company really "dies".

"The hardest thing about selling unwanted imminent assets is that the owner himself doesn't want to let go. If it is a dust-free item, it will be easy to sell. After that, it's just the market…"

"Emily."

"Yes. I will refer to recent cases of buying and selling painters when it comes to painting. Let the gemstone appraiser appraise the gemstone. As for the scraps… well, it would be a discarded value"

That being said, I look at Kota with surprisingly cold eyes, as if to see garbage. Such a gaze of beauty would be a reward for those in that industry, but it would only make your spine colder if you tried it to be completely normal.

"Uh... Emily, are you angry about something?

"... no. You can't be angry at your guests, Matsuyo..."

"… now there was no unusual difference between the name and Dear?

"…………………… no"

"What, Mr. Emily? Now there was a complete time, wasn't there?

"It's my fault."

Haota gives up pursuing more than that to Emily, who has no particular attitude. It would be a waste of time to recruit any more... and most importantly, because Hota's spirit is the limit.

"... me, my mental is weaker than tofu"

- No one answered Kota's trick of shaking his head as he sighed.

◇◆◇◆◇◆

"Well, for now, I think I can handle the money on hand."

Watch the mountain-like gift in front of you as you moisturize your throat with Emili's brewed tea modoki… hereinafter referred to as tea….

"I still don't know how much it's going to be for the amount... well, is that still going to be a pretty good amount?

"I have no artistic taste at all, so I'll take care of that"

Kota has only taken ducks in subjects related to small, medium and high arts. It's a ten-step evaluation to high school.

"Hehe. Leave you to me."

Erica smiles at me for saying so. To that smile, which I admire, I corrected my residence because of the slight lightness, and Kota opened his mouth.

"Well, that would be nice of you. So… well, let's decide on future policies for now."

I can sell my assets. There will also be more handheld assets. I will not reduce this after... Speaking of greed, it is the urgent proposition of the future fire to go more. It's a proposition...

"I'll leave you to it. Anyway, I'm going to do something wrong and increase my deficit."

That's what I said, Erica, inflating her heartfelt cheeks to look like. Apparently, what Kota told me was "How cheap is it to make and sell crops that are resistant to the sea breeze, Pugya" is drawing tail.

"Please don't be so obstinate, I'm not a child"

"I'm not stubborn. I'm not a child. Oh, is the way you think still a kid?

"That's stubborn... that's good, because it's not going to end. Let's start by thinking about the future direction of Terra."

"Direction?

"Yes."

Say that and have another sip of tea.

"The easiest way to do this is to 'imitate the successful'. Where can I say an economical city in this kingdom of Flame?

To Kota's question, Erica looks into the hollow and thinks.

"Right... first of all, is it Larchia, the king's capital?

"Why?"

"Why... because it's Wang Du? The city where the king lives? People live there, and naturally they consume a lot of food."

"It makes good money because it sells well, right? What about other cities?

"Later...... titanium? It's a tourist destination, and there are old ruins and castles. There are a lot of tourists, and the inn is almost full."

"I see, you have tourist resources. Later?"

"After..."

"Laura, right"

Turning into Erica stuck in words, Emili opens her mouth.

"Laura is called the city of gambling. Huge sums of money move overnight and billionaires and bankruptcies are said to change on a daily basis. It's the most popular place for flame tourism, and naturally money falls into the city."

"... thank you"

"Nothing, not for Matsuyo-sama. It's for Erica's sake."

Unexpectedly, tears seem to spill over into a dialogue without a nibble. Kota is a strong child, a child who does not cry.

"... anyway, the three cities that just came out. If we emulate this, it should develop relatively easily. Because you've already succeeded. But..."

"I can't."

"Yeah. Larchia first. This is the king's capital and the heart of the political economy. If you give it back, it's 'center' so it's flourishing, not 'center' because it's flourishing."

The opposite is not true.

"Titanium next. You can't even imitate here. Tourism is commonly referred to as one of the device industries, but without tourist resources, it's painful."

The so-called "tourist destination" is the first thing made up of hot springs, mountains, or historic buildings. Very rarely… For example, like the rat kingdom in Pu 'an, there may be luck that tourist destinations' appear 'with a tremendous brand image, but there is almost a chance of lottery.

"Later Laura..."

That's what I say, I run a glimpse.

"Laura can't."

"I guess."

"You knew?

"Because it was in the book." The only city in Flame where public gambling is allowed, "right?

"... that's what I'm talking about."

In the first place, this country would be a gambling country if it could be anywhere. Except for good and bad, though.

"... once you tell His Majesty, you'll get permission, won't you? I know you can't do it by and large, but if you sneak up on me, I'm sure you'll find it fascinating."

"Let's quit that. Back casino, my God, it's going to be insecure. Because it's not a good thing to make money."

It is also the Lord's duty to create a city where residents can live in peace. The country is a people.

"... then, no"

"You can't 'imitate' the past. Then there's only one thing left. We just have to do something new."

"Even if they say something new..."

Erica worries with her eyebrows against the eight letters. Beauty cheats because it suits you no matter what you do. Well, for the record.

"... nothing."

"... you're giving up fast"

"'Cause you do, don't you? I'd already do it if it was that easy to come up with."

Because I can't think of it, my finances are cumbersome.

"But you can have surplus funds, right? Isn't there more you can do? Terra, for example, is a city by the sea. You know, building a commercial port in Coco."

"... what are we going to do with the commercial harbor?"

"For example, we're talking about."

A commercial port is a commercial destination, or a place of origin. It's completely useless in Terra, where no one consumes it or produces it.

"... on the contrary, how long should I have?

"How much, what?

"Target revenue...... well, that's profits. How much do you want to give profits,. For example, right now, the best income in Terra is tax revenue, right?

I was going to ask for confirmation. 'Yes,' said Erica's neck, who thought she would shake her neck vertically, but was shook sideways without force against expectations.

"... that?

"The best income is' debt '."

"... debt, is it"

"Yeah, it's subtle if you call it income... but for now, a lot of Terra's income is borrowed from the state."

"… local bonds, is it? That's..."

Local bonds, so to speak, local government bonds issued by local governments. There are various reasons for issuing…

"To cover the deficit, right?

"... at first it was. But now I owe you money to pay back what you owe me."

It's called underredemption funds.

"That's... the most futile pattern"

Funds to repay borrowings usually come out of profits. When it comes to terra patterns, it is fundamental that they should be repaid from tax revenues, etc.

"Refinancing funds to repay them all... Yeah, I can't even say it's a bad idea to repay them by re-borrowing them... that makes sense for the first time with some prospect of going ahead. If you are borrowing, borrowing and coming under the current circumstances…"

Interest alone is going to be a big deal.

"Can't you keep up with tax revenues? For example, raising the tax rate for a year or so. How much tax are you taking now?

"One hundred white gold coins per adult over the age of fifteen, per year. Fifty children each. Except for the Chamber of Commerce? I collect 2,000 copies a year from the Chamber of Commerce."

"... Huh?

"... what? Is it expensive? Is it still less expensive than the rest of the city? Larchia is a tax bugger."

Kota takes control of Erica's words. It is not. Higher tax rates, lower taxes, etc. are not a problem at all if the taxes are… more precisely. More than that.

"... erm... Could it be, head tax, what is it?

"Head Tax?

"Yeah. People, how much tax per capita is that way?

"Right?

Erica sees Kota in the face of what she is doing now.

"Um... is that true everywhere?

"Right? The amount of white gold you collect will vary from one city to another, but it's true in every city."

"... Really?"

To Erica's words, Kota nods slowly. No heart, a grin on my face.

"... what? Is that a good idea?

"... right. It occurred to me."

"Yes. I thought of that - what?

"So it occurred to me. Whether it succeeds or not...... I think it's worth doing and seeing"

"Ho, is that true? Shh, that's amazing! What the hell is that way?

Haruta grinned harder at Erica, who grew up rarely.

"Let's quit."

"... Huh?

"Taxes, let's quit taking"

... I told him that there were no demos.
