James shouted " Simon, don't let them take advantage of us".
The big burly fisherman stared at his brother. " Please take your brother out for a walk".
The two left.
" Sorry Efah and Levi". Simon's voice hesitated. " The Sons of Zebedee share a short temper".
Levi studied the big burly fisherman. " Please get to the point of your visit".
" I'm speaking on behalf of the area fishermen".
" We are listening".
" We are asking for a short break on paying our taxes".
Efah stood up and yelled " That is impossible!".
Levi raised a finger for his assistant to be quiet. " Continue".
" If we had a break and could spend the money to fix our equipment". He looked at Levi. " We could be more productive".
Levi smiled. " Which means more business for you".
Efah grinned. " Which means more taxes for us".
" That is correct".
Efah and Levi smiled at each other.
" Ok".
