Fairy Tail: I want to summon Baron Nash

The presidents who attended the meeting spoke freely and expressed their opinions. Some thought it should be taken seriously, while others thought it was just a casual statement by the king and should not be taken seriously.

As for Rhodes' beloved President Makarov, he was as sleepy as a chicken pecking at rice.

After Rhodes reminded him twice, he found that it didn't work, so he had to take out a small notebook and write down a few key points for the old man.

After discussing the topic of the Magister Festival, President Goldman concluded a few words and expressed the hope that everyone would pay more attention to this news after returning.

Maybe this will be an opportunity to further increase the influence of the magicians. If you don't grasp it well, it may affect the reputation of your own guild.

"Then, let's move on to the next topic, regarding the tax issue that was slightly revised at the end of last year..."

Rhodes recalled that he had never paid taxes since he came here, and he had never even thought about such issues before this month.

The first time he realized he needed to pay taxes was when he helped Mira do the annual calculations at the beginning of the month.

This country's tax policy for regular guild wizards is quite relaxed, and the guilds generally pay the taxes uniformly.

The tax rate is so low that it does not need to be deducted from the wizard's mission remuneration, but is paid directly from the 'deposit' submitted by the client.

When a client publishes a task, they generally need to pay a small deposit, which according to Rhodes' analysis should include taxes, service fees and advertising fees.

Ordinary tasks are generally around 1%, which is not worth mentioning compared to task rewards.

Moreover, Fairy Tail has its own rules that when the remuneration exceeds one million, it will be calculated as one million and the amount will not be increased.

Anyway, the guild will help with the process of paying taxes, and ordinary magicians don't need to get involved at all.

Specifically, now Mira and Rhodes handle most of the affairs, and then the president can take the time to sign and hand over the money.

Out of curiosity, Rhodes also inquired a little about the tax rates for businessmen, workers, and farmers.

After comparison, I can only say that it is good to be a magician.

"The next topic is the impact of the kingdom's decree on supporting the research and development of magic items on magicians who hold them..."

One by one, the presidents kept discussing the new decrees and slightly revised legal provisions issued by the kingdom, analyzing the impact that the magicians would be affected, and whether the alliance should take special actions next.

The discussion started at two o'clock and came to an end around six o'clock in the evening.

At this time, someone asked about Fairy Tail's attitude: "Mr. Makarov, what do you think?"

Rhodes quietly pushed his unreliable president.

Makarov suddenly woke up and slapped the table: "Let's go together!"

Rhodes reasonably suspected that the old man might be dreaming of fighting with someone. Not to mention, he was quite domineering just now.

It was just this sudden sentence that made all the presidents look at each other, a little confused.

Bob, who was familiar with Makarov's character, was already smiling with his hands on his face, and Goldman was almost the same, except that he had to preside over the meeting, so it was very hard to hold back his laughter.

Makarov also realized that something was wrong, and quietly extended his arm behind his back, tugging at the corner of Rhode's clothes.

It was like asking for help when my deskmate fell asleep and was called up by the teacher to answer a question, but he didn’t know what the teacher was asking.

"Ahem..." Rhodes had no choice but to clear his throat, "What our president means is that no matter whether the kingdom's policies are beneficial to us or not, everyone must unite together, overcome difficulties together, and make the environment of the magic world a better place. better.

We at Fairy Tail will continue to work hard towards this goal, and we hope that everyone can join hands with us. In general, let’s go together! "

Makarov nodded deeply: "Well, yes, that's what I meant." "Well said, as expected of Your Excellency Makarov!"

“I couldn’t have asked for a more appropriate closing statement to today’s meeting.”

Goldman, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting, suppressed a smile: "President Makarov's words seem to have taken away my job, but since I have said it, let's end today's meeting here and adjourn!"

At dinner time after the meeting, Goldman laughed mercilessly at Makarov's gaffe, saying bluntly, 'It was almost embarrassing again'!

Makarov argued with him with a red face. He didn't know whether he was red from anger or from drinking.

"No wonder you brought Rod-chan here, you are such a good boy~"

Although President Bob’s voice was a little deep, it sounded unexpectedly gentle.

Rhodes found that he was almost getting used to it.

Just in case, he decided to look through Mila's photos later.

"That's right!" Makarov was inspired by Bob and thought of a good way to say it. "Rhodes is just like my child. What's the difference between what he said and what I said!"

"Shameless." Goldman said, "Polyusica must be dissatisfied with you and refuses to go to the guild."

"What does this have to do with her!" Makarov did not intend to follow Goldman's rhythm and put on a proud expression, "I asked you, are you jealous because you see such outstanding young people in our guild? "

Speaking of this, Goldman couldn't admit defeat: "The children in our guild are not bad either!"

"Is that so? It won't take long for this child to become an S-class mage."

"What's so great about S-class? Our guild also has an S-class that's about the same age as him!"

"So what, do you dare to compete?"

"Why don't you dare?!"

Both of them refused to give in. Rod asked, "President Bob, if they get drunk and fight, can you mediate?"

"Oh, they have always been on good terms." Bob did not answer Rod's question, but asked, "Who mediates when you usually fight?"

"..."Most people would rather see the fight get more intense, so how could they mediate?

Only Erza would intervene on the first day she returned to the guild, or when she could no longer tolerate it.

Otherwise, if it develops to the point of destroying the family, the president would come forward.

Should we go and ask the president of the president to mediate?

President Bob said, "Let them be. We are all old and now prefer to decide the winner by other means other than fighting."

"Other means? What means... No, do we have to decide the winner after a quarrel after drinking?" Rod asked, "Solve it by finger-guessing?"

"Their personalities are mostly to compare the next generation of the guild." President Bob said,

"Maybe Rod will represent Fairy Tail to compete with the young people of the Four Hounds~"

Rod thought of the young S-class wizard that President Goldman just mentioned, and said uncomfortably, "Forgive me, I can't afford to offend an S-class wizard now."

Bobu encouraged, "Young people should be a little more confident, you are Fairy Tail~"

"Why do I feel that you know Fairy Tail better than me?"

Rod smiled bitterly. He just got beaten by an S-class wizard last month, and he didn't have the confidence to challenge him for the time being.
