177 5.66 Donst Look For Trouble, Unless Trouble Looks For You First! (2/2)
The Mayor was filled with interest in how a business of this miniscule scale can achieve such an astronomical height.
”After making the necessary deposit, we headed down to the furniture shop and invited the Head of Buildings and Constrictions over to these pieces of land and open up our ideas of building a house and a warehouse to conduct our business.”
”If this idea was rejected and disapprove, would our kind and humble Head of Buildings and Constructions approve of such ideas? Would he compromise gold coins just to risk his life for nothing? He would definitely be digging his own grave if he does something that is definitely 100% not in your favour, am I correct, Your Excellency?”
”We had also checked with the Land and Property Tax Office and was informed by them that we are going to build a business building in the residential zone of Hiko-sama's Residences. Those group of people are aware that we are planning to construct a business building here and informed us the land tax for a single building differs from a single storey residential house.”
”And a 2 storey residential property tax is double. If this practice is disallowed, then no one would pass such information to us, wasting their time and effort. If a No is a NO, no two NOs can make a YES, am I right to contest this?”
”So we then proceeded to perform a groundbreaking ceremony and built an additional residential house and a warehouse cum workshop. The moment we heard our next-door neighbour wanted to move to their daughter's house in a smaller village, we acquired the land from them. And changed their title deed to Hiko-sama' name.”
”I do beg for your forgiveness, Your Excellency, if you find that constructing these business buildings here, and contributing to the economic infrastructure to ensure a future growth to Kitakata, while we managed to get these approvals from the people who were considered as competent in their field of expertise chosen by Your Excellency, do you think that the root of the problems lies in the administration of your Office that you had carefully chosen?”
”In that the case, Your Excellency should immediately terminate and place those who had committed such direct opposition to your instructions and orders in prisons for their deeds.”
”These people who had approved the processes are your very own staff. Does it show you are incompetent in delegating your duties or you had come here based on merely inaccurate and infamous hearsay?¥
”Should you prevent the future growth of this village as Your Excellency has been appointed by his Royal Highness, the Emperor of Japan? Or you would let us operate our businesses as usual and make this village prosper under your name.”
”The monies in the treasury has gained interest, and that means the government has taken part or all of its funds in there to strengthen its garrison, militia or the Imperial Army that serves you, am I true to state this fact?”
”Please forgive me, Your Excellency. The land that you had set foot right now belongs solely to Hiko Seijuro and it is now considered as a private property, and as a private property, we have little or no tolerance on such intrusions by people who had total disrespect for others, as well as those towards whom they serve, which means you, Your Excellency,,,.”
”We had done with our part here and we do not wish or desire to abide by your instructions or orders to destroy the business and its buildings, because we provide livelihood to these people, whom in turn pays their taxes to you, as you too acquire your monthly wages and your Imperial Guards from there, am I right to point this out?
”In general terms, we the citizens of Kitakata, are paying for your goddamned salaries!”
”So without further ado, let these people be properly employed, so that they would be able to pay for their taxes to the government as well as helping the trading district to grow. Thank you very much, Your Excellency, we have made our point clear to you and would stand by our decisions, no matter what! ”
”Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha would like to thank you for your kind visit, taking your time and effort to track here with these men, and if you liked to stay for snacks and tea, please... you will be cordially received and welcome as our most honourable guest, Your Excellency. If not, you are dismissed and may return to where you come from. Thank you and Adios Amigo... Brengsek!”
No words came out from the group of pea-brained butthole scratching apes as they all turned and walked away.
”Oh YES! Before we forget, please send our regards to the ranger that was hogtied with a piece of stick up his tiny crabby asshole! Tell him don't mess with the Banditos, or ended up like Toast!”
”God! Where's my drink? My God, you people. At least offer me a chair to sit, fan me as I talk incessantly, offer me an ice-cold Strong Zero and have some of the girls to massage my shoulders. Where's that Mr Director? Good for nothing, freeloading on the food that the 4 aunties had cooked for us. Never even lift up a finger to help me count how many manpower we need to add. Gawwwddd..... A drink... Someone get me a drink..... Huuuaaarrrghhhhh..... ”
I complained to the set because I had not slept for more than 24hours just to make our readers anticipate the growth of this series.
Huuuuuaaaarrrrgggghhhhhhhh
Hiko-sama quickly gave me several cups of sake to calm my nerves and relax.
”Where did you learn how to TALK like that? You didn't even bow at him when he leaves. He was speechless... Ara ma. Now I know how a Hitokiri kills using his tongue....!”
Hahahhahahaha haha.... See la, Mess with the Best, Die like the Rest.
”Hey kid, how did you know he sent the guy with a stick butt?”
”Just my gut feelings and also there's no expression when I told him to send my regards to the Nozoki Ana.”
”Do you think we are under his radar now? It does seem to be if not he won't be coming here just to tell us to shut down the business based from his subordinates instigating him over this kind of matters.”
Kami asked me since the way the Mayor was acting was rather disturbing.
”Don't worry, even if we are under his radar, his minions would do the dirty work for him. We will make his stature if he makes another underhanded move like that.”
”Every people we catch doing this to us or any other employees here, we would not let them off the hook so easily. I would make sure we parade them in public and paint his body, ”That so and so made me do this and this is what I get.”
”Alright people, please gather up. I have an announcement to make. And please bring that rubbish over here and place some distances away. Thank you.”
After I had mentioned this, all the workers stopped their work and place the rubbish where I pointed at.
”As you can see just who had come and visited our Fasuto Japan KabushikiGaisha right? If anyone were to double-cross any of us or any of you to create sabotage, unrest, riot or any other negative effects on the company, the operations or its employees, remember this... We would not take immediate action against the person.”
”Take for example the person is this bag of rubbish. Would anyone turn against us and each other just for a mere few pieces of gold coin? If anyone has such information, please come forward and inform us.”
”Don't end up like this piece of trash that no one wants and accepts in Fasuto Japan.”
I made a handseal and out came Fire Release that immediately consumed the bag of rubbish.
”Anyone who is a traitor I will BURN him or her like this rubbish here! Go and spread the news to your friends and families when you go back home or change your shift.”
Everyone present watched Fire that came out from my hands and ignited the pile of rubbish and the heat was tremendous that people can feel the heat of the Fire Release from a few meters away.
They shuddered at the sight and vowed never turn their tails against the company, its operations or its employees.
Plebs are simple-minded and sometimes just a little demonstration of power and authority like these would make them fear of being easily instigated.
”Hey, kid! Stop burning things around or else the fire department will come and charge you for sending a false alarm.”
I looked back and walked towards the voice with a killer intent that he toppled from his foldaway chair.
