Miller questions overheads in truth statements
The speaker mockingly lists shop overheads such as wages, fuel, rent, lighting, water, taxes, and more to suggest a miller would bear no costs if uncharged for labor. He questions why a letter is sent to a town where bakers charge only a penny and implies the truth teller hides real expenses and motives.
