The Brain of a Duke Princess

Power

By the way, the younger brother stayed for a few days before leaving. He gave up on persuading mom.

… Well, even though the mother and Queen Dowager were not present, it seems that the party happened without incident. … Since the two people were absent, it was hard to tell whether it worked or not.

With this, the Baron's daughter is now officially engaged to Ed-sama.

As usual, the First Prince did not appear in the Royal City.

So, the Second Prince graduated this year.

Compared to the First Prince who did not show himself, information about the striking Second Prince reached this place regularly.

Moreover, the Second Prince's faction admirably consisted of nobles who enjoyed being above the rest, all they are good at is attending as many tea parties and excessive balls as possible.

By the way, most of the Houses that were in the Second Prince's faction were facing financial difficulties. They spend too much without thinking, and they do not participate in developing their own domain of power. This information was obtained from the Azura Conglomerate.

In other words, to put it bluntly, other than their bloodline, the houses in that faction were in a difficult situation.

In comparison, the First Prince's faction consisted of many nobles who concentrated in developing their fiefdom, and new nobles who gained titles after making impressive feats.

That said, it meant that the Second Prince's faction had the same characteristics as him, striking and liking to throw their weight.

Dad, I'm afraid the hole in your belly will open. Speaking of father, after the engagement party, mother stayed for a while before returning to the Royal City. On the other hand, grandfather was still the same as before, living in our house.

For me, there are no special changes and it is still busy every day.

"As I've said before, Dean. Will you not be mine? "

Those were the words I asked for the umpteenth time, but Dean, without blinking, smiled and responded.

"Although I thank you for your words …"

Likewise, this answer has also been said for the Nth time, rejection. Ahh, very frustrating.

When one listened to this conversation, it would sound like a confession .. No, it sounded more like a dangerous conversation from a mistress trying to deceive a young man.

In addition, Dean has stunning emerald green eyes, beautiful blonde hair, and a beautiful face. It seemed like he also had a trained body, which increased his charm. With her pretty face, it could only be seen as if she was being seduced.

“HAaaa. But I will not give up. For now, please take care of me for one week. ”

"Of course."

What do I mean by one week? It's to help with the politics of the fief as my assistant.

… It all started before mom returned to the Royal City. Utilize the services of the Interim staff, where they send talented people to help during busy times with short-term contracts.

Dean is the guy we contracted with. At first, although it was a bit rude for me to say this, but since I could not keep an eye on every member, I did not know of his whereabouts.

However, the details of his reputation and ability at the scene had reached me.

However, the details of his reputation and ability at the scene had reached me.

Because that's the case .. I gave him something to take individually, and he delivered admirably. Then, I decided to have him do a slightly heavier task .. The situation happened over and over again, and he ended up being my assistant.

Although mother had never met Dean, she said, "If it was him, I feel like I could hand it to him without worrying." Since I had full confidence in the insight of her mother and the person she chose, I chose her to be my assistant . Of course, his ability was guaranteed.

… Anyway, I feel comfortable. What I mean and his purpose, he can find it himself. It saved me a lot of time from having to explain it to him, and I could do other things. When I consider his abilities, he himself can do the work of ten others.

Now, let's go back to the previous topic. What I have said that sounds like a true confession is me trying to find him. … Although I would like him to officially hire him to conduct daily rural affairs.

Looks like he has to go home to help out at his parents' house. That's why, he'll stay here to work for a week, and then he'll be back for two to three weeks.

Since he is like that, I feel sorry to part with him and his abilities, so I will hunt him down every time he comes.

Sometimes I feel uncertain and think that I should suspect something, but since the rural government doesn't really have a lot of classified information, there should be no problem. … Mother's words also play a big role.

"Yes, here's the report on the academy's earnings and expenses and next year's budget application."

"I made some modifications."

"thank you. An elementary school has been established in all areas .. and I am thinking of opening a secondary school for vocational training. "

“It will be difficult to do so with an existing budget.”

"Yes, right. As I thought, we need to make changes to stabilize tax revenue … "

"Yes, right. As I thought, we need to make changes to stabilize tax revenue … "

“Conon, Sales Tax is a little premature. The basis of taxation is Justice, Simplicity, and Equality. We are currently at a stage where primary schools are still newly established, but the literacy rate will slowly increase. People will start to understand. Other than the large shops, it would still be difficult for the small shops. "

"That, there is …"

“Although I said that, I thought it was a new idea. Once the literacy rate rises a little more, and then, after a while, introduce arithmetic and spread it out little by little. ”

"Un ~ ... I wonder if I should start going in that direction?"

Ruffling through the newspapers, I came across an income tax draft.

"To abolish taxes, and move on to income tax .. I am very unsure about that. As I have reported before, the basis of taxation is Reasonable, Simple, and Equivalent. Also, people have all participated in paying poll taxes, and all consider it acceptable. "

“Being too equal is also a problem. To tax a child who does not have the ability to pay it. It could only be considered as a fetter for the breadwinners. ”

That's right, I think poll tax is an idea tax.

Easy, and it's the same. But I think it's too equal, it's impossible to consider it fair. Moreover, to be charged to those who did not have the ability to pay them, it would be a heavy burden for them.

"… Of course, there's also a way to look at it."

“Currently, the draft is about taxing based on individual income .. But since it would be difficult to calculate the farmer's income tax, so the plan is for the public office to calculate it based on 'Deemed Harvest' and collect taxes from there. "

"Is that why you are asking for Public Affairs to work on clarifying the boundaries of the land?"

"Rubber. … Of course, it's not just for that purpose. "

"I saw. Since that would be a problem, it would be easy to analyze crop harvest depending on the respective climate year. ”

"Rubber. … Of course, it's not just for that purpose. "

"I saw. Since that would be a problem, it would be easy to analyze crop harvest depending on the respective climate year. ”

"Uun ~ That's right."

"About that, can the public office find enough staff to do those calculations?"

“I told the Finance department to let the students currently enrolled in the Finance course participate alternately. Not to mention the Finance department, I intend to hire graduates for that sector. Public knowledge will increase sooner or later, making it ideal for them to learn about taxes. ”

"… That's something that might take a long time."

“Well, I don't expect immediate results. That's why I said sooner or later. In addition, we should not only consider taxes for individuals, we should also prepare taxes that concern corporations and conglomerates.

Currently, conglomerate income tax calculations are being mixed with presidential income. It turned out that way because the presidents of these companies and the conglomerates received salaries from them.

First, let's have the company file a tax separate from their President's personal income, and then have the company send an application to receive their special tax rate. ”

"… What would you do if conglomerates and corporations rebelled?"

“Do you not think this will relieve them from paying more taxes? Currently, they have to pay import and export taxes every time they enter and exit each city. With this, when they import and export to places other than our region or to other countries, they will pay less tax in the future. … In that situation, the distribution will also increase. "

“Of course, it will be able to moderate their repulsion. Since every company and conglomerate currently has someone enrolled in an accounting course to study double entry bookkeeping, it will help when they are calculating their account. … In this way, it will not add to their burden to some extent. "

"That's how it is. Our conversation earlier, let's talk about it once again with the people from the Finance department. "
