Problems In Math and Kingdoms Are Hard.

I asked what the problem was.

He said ' Our kingdom has a little town called Partinia it is the place where soldiers train, they are requesting money for soldiers'

I said 'give them some money '

He said ' the food supply is low in our granaries you said people not to give food to the grainery for this year, so no food in grainery'

I said that first to be honest I didn't know how a kingdom gets its money.

So, I asked Blade about how this kingdom gets the money. He said a lot of stuff but here is the summary.

* The primary source of money is tax, people have to pay 1% tax of their monthly salary.

*I still don't know the value of money in this kingdom.

*People who farm in this kingdom are at least 50% so the king said that they can pay the tax on their crops.

*And if the kingdom wants money, they trade crops with Narva.

*Every town has its own ration shop on which people can buy food at a low rate.

*After Cerdia took over a part of farming land 10% of farmers have decreased.

*It led to a shortage of grains in granaries, so the treasury is running low on cash.

So, this is how this kingdom gets the money

So, I said you to give them more money, wait, what'

Blade looked confused after I said that

I said ' yes no grains no money I forgot that'

I was nervous. I had a plan, but I was not sure if it would work, so I started to pace around the room (deep thinking).

Blade was looking at me and he said ' you have a plan don't you.

I smiled and said ' yes Blade you understand me so well you are a great friend and a great advisor'

He said ' hey don't sweet me up now, and don't call me your friend I am ready to backstab you any time and I did not advise you a thing in my entire life '

I said 'Sure you would, and it is also true that you did not advise me and you can '

He was furious he said 'hey did you just say that I can't advise I can deal what do think you are a great genius no I said everything about the kingdom to you but I don't get paid enough for it'

I said ' yeah I forgot to ask how much does food for a single person cost in the shops'

He said ' 10 gold at a regular shop and 5 gold at a ration shop '

What, Blade salary = 100 gold

You have to eat three times a day, so 3×30=90 and 10 gold tax.

It seems like I have been giving my advisor a perfect salary, but what about a normal person?

He said ' 500 gold, if it's the slums 200 to 300 per family'

500 gold, perfect but the slums are not so perfect.

And I told people not to give grains to the grainery because I thought if they pay in money it would be good but it is not, I made a simple newbie mistake like in a game; you know spending the diamonds for fashion items and not for raising your stats or something.

I asked Blade how much money they wanted he said '100 multiplied by 100'

hmm, 100 multiplied by 100 is easy 10,000 I asked Blade ' why 100 multiply 100'

He said ' the money is for buying special food which will be given once a year for the soldiers and it is only given to 100 people and it costs 100 gold each'

100 gold just for one day I pay that to my advisor for an entire month, I asked ' why special food to special hundred soldiers once a year

He said ' to beat Ceridian soldiers '

It is funny I said' can't they beat them with normal food'

He looked like he was gonna hit me he said ' you have no brains do you, did you know that it takes five normal soldiers from our kingdom to defeat two Ceridian soldiers'

I said ' what, does it mean it takes two and a half soldiers to take on one Ceridian soldier'

He said yes, i said ' it is a joke', he said ' I telling the truth if five soldiers take on two Ceridian soldiers one would surely return dead'

is he telling that to me because if one is halved it is 0.5 and if you compare that to a person 0.5 means tearing in half which means death?

My advisor is creepy, gotta send him to a doctor.

After this creepy conversation,I asked ' how much money is in our treasury'

He said ' after all the expenses this month including the salary because it is month-end, the balance is zero'

I said ' hmm, I hate zero balance '

He said ' I can't do anything about it, that's the problem so goodnight '

I said ' wait, you are supposed to do something about it you are my advisor '

He said ' you said that if you wanted an advisor, you would have gotten an intelligent one right so ask someone with more brains'

Did my advisor outsmart, no he can't outsmart the protagonist that is the rule

So I said ' then do me a favor advisor tell people of the noble family to donate money '

He said yes and left for bed.

In the morning

Ah, such a beautiful day as my twisted advisor stayed up all night writing letters to the noble the donations will come.

At lunch, I was sitting and eating the food was not that delicious but it was good I would give it a 6 out of 10 anyway, after eating lunch I went to my advisor.

I went to his room and said ' hi, did you have your lunch'

He was looking at some papers, he looked at me and said ' donations came '

I said woohoo he said ' don't woohoo yet I was confused he said ' it only fulfilled half the money'

Oh, sad anyway I had another plan in my head I said ' there is another way to get the money it is
