202. Conclusions of Ziggoroth Amon

***

Finance minister Joel was in a good mood as he had just concluded his deals with the various ministers and nobles the same day after he met Minister Plato.

Joel murmured as he was planning to visit the ministers who were under Prince Hector, "Now only the real troublemakers of Prince Hector and Felix remain. I should first try to convince some of them of the benefits of this deal so they don't oppose it. If they are still adamant to oppose me I might bring up their Tax evasions later on in the court and their role in the previous war & its effects on Aelius. And from the information, it seems they have lost quite a bit of money in the previous war. Their only consolation is the land acquired by Duke Norman during the previous invasion of wildlands. However, I have to move carefully to not give them more information than that is required. I can only reveal the whole deal in the court tomorrow."
