Make a chair in the office of Dekarabia Castle. The castle had many rooms without chairs, as the old lord of the castle did not need a chair.

He escaped the Demon King Decaravia, but otherwise gave the best results. For he got the trading city, his residence.

My city trades, but it's a hybrid city that is both agriculture and industrial, but Decalavia has one of the best trade cities in the area.

It is located at the intersection of multiple highways and has a large river. People and nature gathered and traded. The demons, humans, and subs gathered to buy and sell things.

"That greedy decalavia often forgave that."

It is Eve's frank question, but greed would have allowed business.

However, Decaravia seems to have imposed a rather heavy tax, such as an entrance tax that takes gold coins just by entering the city, a house tax that determines the amount of tax based on the size of the store and the number of windows, a fixed amount per person It seems he was taking a head tax.

He told me that Eve, who was too noisy for finance, was holding her hand open, saying "Well."

"It's a stupid thing at all, not a heavy tax."

"is not it"

"Heavy taxes will naturally keep merchants away. As a result, taxes will decrease. Hojo, who was served by Kotaro of Fuma during the Warring States period, raised the tax to four people and six people, that is, about 40 percent, He seized and prospered the territory greatly. ''

Fuma Kotaro hears the words and says, However, there was no particular opinion, and he kept his back on the wall.

"I want to reduce taxes following the Kanto champion Hojo, but first let's cut the entrance tax by half. You can abolish it, but I also want tax revenue."

"A good idea?"

Eve affirms.

"As for the house tax, it is no longer necessary to determine the tax based on the number of windows. The number of houses that reduce the number of windows only increases, and the number of black houses increases the number of fires with candles."

By the way, in Japan, there was a time when taxes were determined based on the size of the frontage.

At that time, the people of the capital increased the depth instead of making the frontage smaller. If you go to Kyoto, the custom remains, and many houses in Kyoto are elongated.

Despite the number of windows, deciding on taxes in this way will always lead to people searching for loopholes.

The number of windows is the same. If taxes are determined by the number of windows, it is human beings to try to reduce the number of windows.

"So we want to abolish cap taxes, but it's hard to keep track of people's income, but it's not good to impose on children, because fewer children = fewer people."

"Should we impose it only on adults?"

"That's right. Well, it is difficult to decide where to grow up from. It should be a family register here."

"Do you have a family register?"

"Oh, I keep my birth record and keep it in the government office. It seems that I did not make my predecessor, Azazel, but I will make it soon."

"It looks like it will cost money to create."

"But there is also a merit that you can definitely get taxes."

When Eve heard the tax, she shined and ordered his subordinates to create it.

"Some of you may be wary of just making it. Give out bread to those who make your family register."

"I'm really the master. You're catching bream with shrimp."

"In this case, it's bread and gold coins. Well, which one is fine. There is a word that I do not feed the fish I caught, but in my case I want to return it properly."

I wanted to expand the city and create a prosperous city with tax revenues raised from this city. The town's residents will be happy to pay taxes. That seemed to be the right answer, and my tax reforms have been very successful. The tax law promulgated the next day was very popular with the townspeople, especially merchants. He praised that it was inconceivable in the Decarabia's reign.

A merchant

"Taxes have become cheaper, so we can offer products to residents at lower prices."

A certain woman

"Because there is no head tax on children, we can have a third child"

An old man

"I can live in a bright house because the window tax is gone."

I was pleased.

Thus my reforms have gained a reputation and many people have begun to gather.

"It's easy to do business under the new Demon King."

"The city of Decarabia will grow many times over."

And merchants gather.

"If you catch the merchants who have gathered, you will be exhausted, and if you steal your property, you will be rich."

Is Eve's terrible demonic joke, but of course he didn't. Provide them with dwarf technicians and build a store or home.

Some of them don't have money, so they interview them and lend them at a low interest rate if you can trust them.

I think it's a very bold policy, but there are still many merchants who move things and money.

Thus, my series of structural reforms worked and was successful.

Eve hears the words "I'm truly the master" every night, but I've been worried recently.

I also occupied the castle of the Devil King Eligos, and of the Devil King Decarabia.

Although he became the Demon King with three castles, he couldn't rule himself alone. It was about time to decide on a formal lord and delegate governance.

I've been searching for intelligence by Kotaro Taro, an intelligence unit, but I haven't received any good reports.

If St. Jeanne was the keeper of this city, it would be a ripped city from a trading city.

If Toshizo Hijikata becomes a servant, the number of prostitutes will increase and the city will become an entertainment city. Dealing with trade cities is so difficult. They will be heavy.

"Is this another job?"

When he begins the calculation, how much can the Demon King save his sleeping time, Kotaro of the Fuma appears.

When he appeared silently, he brought good news to me, who was forced to apply for paperwork in the office.

"Demon King, I confirmed the presence of" Hero "a little away from here."

A good executive can be a demonic or a human. That was a good news for me. I grabbed Fuma Kotaro's shoulder and praised him, but he was a woman in a maid outfit. In the meantime, Eve finds him hugging Kotaro.

She looked at her with her eyes, and muttered, "The master likes French maids.

I didn't want to be misunderstood anymore, so when I let go of Kotaro, I coughed out with "Kohon" and made a voice full of dignity like a demon king.

That exchange was strange. Eve laughed exuberantly, and Kotaro laughed hahaha.
