When everyone heard the report, almost everyone who are clueless reacts angrily, they never expect that the situation of th Konoha Village is much more hard then they expected.
"What? Only 40% of the original strength of the village?!"
"Didn't the report said that the Konoha Village is getting stronger and stronger?"
"A single Kage Level Shinobi? Only only couple of Jonin left to the village?"
"There's more Chunin than all the Elite Ninja combined."
"Is this means we are slightly stronger than the weakest village, Hidden Sand Village?"
No one can't be silent when they heard this report, they never expect that the strongest Konoha Village become so weak as today.
Not only that, some smart people realized something from the report, there's actually missing half clan that originally join the village.
And this is only started when the Third Hokage sit on the position, and right now he is sitting on the position for less than 40 years.
This is not a joke, they can sense the change, the original clan is getting weaker and weaker while the four clan of the Elders is getting stronger and stronger.
They can't help but to look at the four elders with great fear and anger, they are then one who made the Konoha like this.
"At same time, the Konoha Village have a huge debt, a 35 years worth of taxes to the Usagi Clan, and that is 20 Billion in total."
One of the Ninja around rise his hand and asked.
"Aren't we paying taxes every year? And it's a huge one too, it's a 40% Taxes from all mission and things we brought here in the village."
"That's right, the taxes is huge, how can we missing our taxes?"
Everyone is also confused, who can they miss such thing when the taxes is always remove when they get the mission rewards.
Xin who sitting said." The Taxes that my clan is asking is not high as right now, it's only 5% of commission form the mission, 5% annual income for the civilians, and 10% taxes for the Clan so how can the taxes we asked is high as 40%?"
"This is not included that the Konoha Village stop giving taxes to us after the Second Hokage died on the 1St World War."
"....." Everyone
They realize now, the taxes is just 5% and not 40%, but where the taxes they paid goes?
"The taxes is use by the village." Utatane stand up and said.
"Those orphans is payed monthly by the taxes, the salary, living expenses, and infrastructure project is also payed using the taxes."
Everyone look at Utatane then towards the Hokage waiting for the response.
"That's right, the village is lacking with the funding that's why we use the taxes to pay all the expenses of the village." Third Hokage said.
"Our own fault is that, we used the money that we should pay for the land taxes, that's why we have huge debt."
Xin smile at them who trying to hide the truth about corruption.
"I see, if my money is used as this, I'm fine with that, but I want a prof for what you said."
Third Hokage look at Xin with dangerous gaze and asked." What kind of prof?"
"Just simple question that you need to answer."
".... Asked Prince Xin."
"You said that the village is having problem with financial funding, if I'm not wrong the Daming Palace give a huge financial support for the village right?"
"..."
Xin look at Elder Han and asked." How much the annual budget of the Konoha Village Elder Han?"
"If I'm not wrong, the Daimyo gives 2.5 Billion Ryo every year, and this increase by 50% after the 3rd World War become of the damage of the village."
"I see, so 3.75 Billion Ryo is still small for the Konoha Village?"
Xin wave his hand towards Ikaros and Ikaros open a huge picture in the screen.
