"What have you understood?"
The Duke of Raban almost slapped him. Why keep us in suspense and hesitate for so long without saying anything?
Casani, however, just smiled slightly: "This number is significant among 27,000 households, but what if this number is turned into 270,000 households?"
Even though the consumption tax per household ranges from 1 to 3.2 gold pounds, it's still high, but not as outrageous as before.
Seeing that Raban was still puzzled, Casani continued: "What if this number is 540,000 households? Your Grace, have you forgotten about the villagers?"
"Villagers? Are you referring to farmers?" The Duke of Raban first understood but remained skeptical, "Impossible, how much can farmers consume?"
Casani merely smiled without speaking, finally realizing what was amiss.
Raban had calculated only the population of the residents of Priest Town, neglecting the population of the villagers who would also come to the town to consume!
