Bab 172: I will sell them!

Xiang Bei has never known a fear worse than she was facing now, she really wished she could call her bodyguards and throw these people who knew far too much. 

Of course how can she forget that the tavern she was running now was like a brothel but the thing was that she didn't have the permission to run it as one! 

The laws of their country were pretty simple and easy-going. As long as no one went too far The Officials wouldn't find trouble with her or anyone else for the matter but the thing was- they were very particular about taxes! 

Those who ran brothels had to pay a fee of fifty silver taels per month and even have to pay the officials a little tip to smoothen things out for them in the future. 

The laws were strict when it come to paying taxes yet Xiang Bei wanted to avoid paying those taxes by running her brothel under the name of a tavern.
