"Well, along with this, we have a total of 73 properties, 36 plots of land, 2 restaurants, and 1.345 million gold," Seth said while examining the documents, as Charlie watched him in disbelief.
"I still can't believe how you managed to amass this much wealth..."
"I agree," Dave interrupted, as shocked as Charlie. "I didn't expect us to accumulate this much either. We nearly tripled our assets."
Seth grinned slyly, fiddling with the papers in his hand. "This has been a new experience for me as well. Truly unexpected. I can see now why people like you criminals enjoy this business."
Dave sighed and then raised an eyebrow playfully. "If you run out of money, you run out of power, unless you're a noble..."
"So, does that mean when you're a noble, you're exempt from taxes?"
Hearing Charlie's question, Dave shook his head. "No. They just submit fake invoices, paying far less than the actual taxes they owe."
