I Bought the Villains With Money

marry someone I love.

‘I didn’t listen to my father and got married without thinking twice, and my life was ruined.’

That was the reason why I had to listen carefully to what my parents said.

Nobel was a problematic land that my father loved and where my mother was born and raised.

And I remembered after reading the report.

Around this year, Nobel residents, who were struggling with taxes, made a riot.

Count Corcos, who was my guardian at that time, tried to overpower them with force.

In the end, Silver Expedition wielded swords against Nobel residents, not monsters.

Then raged Nobel residents broke the monster boundary stone and triggered chaos.

‘Foolish Count Corcos!’

When I thought of him, anger washed over me.

“Lady, the documents are getting crumpled.”

I guess I gripped onto the document without realizing it.
Janice, who put down the tea she brought, pulled me back to my senses.

I opened the document again and smiled awkwardly.

“Mr.
Matthew prepared this in case you’re hungry.”

Janice put down a plate of sweet cookies and the teacups in front of me.

My mouth was watering, perhaps because I was hungry after using my brain excessively or because of the sweet smell.

I had to look at the documents, but I want to eat them, too.

“If you want to eat, I will prepare your meal.”

When Janice told me to eat the cookies, I held documents in one hand and the cookies in the other.

I was too occupied with the documents without realizing that Janice had left the room.

Matthew said it was a document related to the revision of the Territorial Land Tax Act, but most of the papers contained how the Nobel residents complained that they had a hard time because of the taxes.

‘It shouldn’t be a problem if I fixed a few numbers.’

I was too focused thinking while chewing the cookies.

‘If I reduce taxes, some people will be affected, so I can’t revise the law recklessly.’

The Irenberg family’s tax rate was significantly lower than other places that even until now, we still got complaints from other vessel families.

‘Moreover, Nobel already has lower tax rates than other regions.’

To lower taxes, I had no choice but to reduce taxes paid to the royals, but no matter how powerful Irenberg was, we couldn’t ask the King to lower our taxes.

Moreover, Nobel also paid lesser taxes to the king than other regions.

This was due to the King’s understanding of the damage caused by monsters.

‘Huh? What is this? As soon as my father died, the tax rate rose.’

But when I looked at the documents, I noticed something strange.

Nobel’s taxes were raised.

Nobel was a special area where monsters appeared, so a formal negotiation between the head of the family who owned the land and the king must be done first to raise their tax rate.

But I didn’t remember negotiating that matter.

Of course, it might be because I wasn’t an official head of the family yet.
However, it was strange that I didn’t even remember hearing about the negotiation.
