Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

Page 872

The book "White Night" was only on the shelves for about a week.

Under such circumstances, how could his income still reach more than 30 million?

It's terrible!

However, while Erina Kamishiro was surprised, she was also very proud.

Because this is Bai Feng, whom she likes!

Such a high income at just high school age.

Moreover, they are better than the high school students next to them in every aspect.

They are far superior to them in every aspect, including academic performance, sports achievements, income, cooking skills, and appearance!

Thinking of this, Erina Kamishiro was overjoyed.

But when she thought about how Bai Feng was now another girl's boyfriend, she immediately felt a little annoyed and her face fell.

As she was thinking, Erina suddenly remembered that such a high income required paying taxes.

So Bai Feng's current income is tax-free, right?

Otherwise, how could it be so high?

But after paying taxes, how much will Bai Feng earn?

Erina Kamishiro became increasingly curious and asked:

"Bai Feng, how much tax will you have to pay on this income?"

Sato Ayaka also thought that Bai Feng had not paid his taxes yet.

After all, she handles all the tax matters herself in her firm.

"Auntie, I'm curious too."

Shiro Shiro shook his head and said:

"The tax has already been paid, so you don't need to pay it again."

The two were stunned upon hearing this.

"Huh? I've already paid the tax?" X2

Erina Kamishiro widened her eyes and retorted:

"They've already paid taxes, and there's still over 30 million left?"

"If you don't pay taxes, how much would it be?!"

Sato Ayaka checked the tax situation online and was stunned to find that at least 45% of Bai Feng's income would be deducted.

"Bai Feng, you should pay at least 45% in taxes on your income, right?"

"With such high taxes, how can you still have over 30 million?"

"Does that mean your original income was at least 70 million?"

Kamishiro Shirokaze nodded:

"It should be about this much income."

"At that time, Ms. Igarashi originally told me to file my own taxes."

"However, I heard her say that if I'm willing, the publisher can assist me with the tax deduction process, and they will give me a detailed list later."

"After listening to her explanation, I realized that I shouldn't mess around with things I don't understand, and that I should let someone who knows the ropes do it, so I asked them for help."

Ayaka Sato thought about it and agreed.

After all, publishing houses have professional accountants who handle tax matters.

Bai Feng is still just a high school student. He doesn't understand anything yet, so his handling of tax issues is definitely not as meticulous as that of other accountants.

They might underreport or forget some items that could qualify for tax reductions or exemptions.

Erina Kamishiro's mind wasn't on these calculations.

Compared to all of that, she only cared about Bai Feng's income before taxes.

Keep in mind that this is over 70 million!

She recently watched a TV series.

The male protagonist is a very capable employee in the port area.

Annual income is approximately ten million.

This income already places them among the highest earners in society.

This is arguably the pinnacle of what it means to be an employee.

However, even with this income, it's still no match for Shiro Shiro's monthly income!

Bai Feng even earns seven times more than this employee!

In other words, the male protagonist in this drama would need to work for seven years to earn as much as Bai Feng earns in a month.

That's terrifying.

Erina Kamishiro's eyes gleamed with greed. She immediately stood up and said to Bai Feng:

"If writing novels pays so well, then I want to write novels too!"

Shiro Kaede was having a hard time, unsure how to roast this idiot.

Ayaka Sato was also somewhat amused and exasperated.

It's important to know that Bai Feng's novels are exceptionally well-written and extremely popular on Japanese novel forums. This is precisely why his income is so high.

In reality, the income of ordinary writers is far from reaching Bai Feng's level. In their eyes, the monthly income of Shen Dai Bai Feng is already the dream of all writers.

Because Ayaka Sato is a voice actress, she often has access to information about authors, publishers, and animation companies.

Therefore, she knew how difficult it would be for an ordinary writer to reach Bai Feng's income level.

It's fair to say that even if an ordinary writer were to spend their entire life earning, they might not earn as much as Bai Feng in a single month.

This industry is extremely brutal.

Great writers earn incredibly high incomes.

The average writer's income may actually be lower than that of a convenience store employee.

While this is true in other professions as well, writing is extremely dependent on talent, and the chances of becoming famous and making money are much, much lower than in other professions.

However, since Erina is so ambitious, Ayaka Sato thinks it's great.

Anyway, Erina is usually pretty laid-back, so now that she has something she wants to do, let her do it.

Ayaka Sato smiled and said:

"Erina, if you want to become a writer like Shirakaze, your aunt will support you."

Erina put her hands on her hips and gave a soft snort:

"Bai Feng, if you can write such a best-selling novel, I can definitely do it too!"

Shiro Kaede couldn't help but chuckle, but he didn't discourage Erina; he simply nodded repeatedly.

"It will definitely work, it will definitely work."

Sato Ayaka thought that since Bai Feng's income was so high now, there was no need for him to continue working at the coffee shop, right?

I heard from Bai Feng that his daily income at the coffee shop was around 7000 to 5000 yen.

This kind of income is definitely not as good as what a writer earns for Bai Feng right now.

Moreover, after Bai Feng stopped working part-time at the coffee shop, wouldn't it be great if he stayed home to study, think about novel writing, or go on dates with girls?

With this in mind, Ayaka Sato suggested:

"Bai Feng, now that your income is so high, why don't you quit your part-time job at the coffee shop?"

"Auntie, I think now that you have money, you can do other more meaningful things after school."

Erina Kamishiro's heart skipped a beat.

She knew perfectly well that the shop belonged to Bai Feng!

Therefore, it's impossible for him to give up that store.

You should know that that store's annual revenue is over 100 million.

With such a high income, how could I possibly give it up?

My aunt doesn't know about this yet.

Shiro Shiro scratched his cheek, thinking that Erina had cried so much last time when she heard that he hadn't told her about borrowing money to open a shop.

If I were to tell my aunt about this, given her personality, it would probably cause even more trouble.

But he can't stop going to work now.

After all, that shop belongs to him.

After thinking for a moment, Shiro Kaede could only lie and say:

"Auntie, I quite like that shop."

"And that store's income seems quite substantial."

"So I thought I might as well spend some money to buy it."

Ayaka Sato said with some concern:

"Auntie, I don't really know much about this kind of thing."

"But Bai Feng, you're still a high school student. Opening a shop right now isn't really a good idea, is it?"

"You know, there are a lot of things to manage when you open a store."

"If you don't have a professional to tell you about all these things, you'll fall into a lot of traps."
