Joshua's eyes widened slightly... Even though he knew the other party was done with courtesy and didn't plan to pay attention to someone like him, he still smiled and began, "Respected Mr. Belfran, you chose to become an Earth Traveler, surely you want to experience the hustle and bustle of life and see how ordinary people live!
Our Basia City excels in this regard!
Basia Port has the lowest taxes in the entire kingdom... Even in the whole Western Sea region, such low taxes are rare.
If someone as powerful as yourself, an Alchemist, wishes to trade materials with the outside world, there's no need to pay the City Lord's tax.
You only need to pay a fixed national tax... Our Danboro Kingdom has always treated bulk trades equally, whether by price or quantity, only charging fifteen percent, capped at 1000 gold coins!
Then, a noble lord might add another ten percent or so.
But our lord only charges five percent even for ordinary materials.
