Chapter 221: War for Korin, their Son-in-Law (3)
༺ War for Korin, their Son-in-Law (3)༻
One might think that taxes were the only source of income for the royal family, but that was a misconception.
In fact, only a small amount of taxes were allocated to the royal family for them to maintain their standard of appearance, and it wasn’t their main source of income.
Their main income came from the generations of private property and merchants.
The silk road to the east and the trade routes to the southern archipelago as well as trades with other continents thanks to monster carriers all in the name of the royal family was what supported them.
Apart from that, there were also the real estate investments and banking businesses, which were based on the absolute credit behind their title.
This past decade, even the New Faith was included in their business after the 1st Princess became the saintess of the order.
Everything was going smoothly, maybe except for some uneasy elements like the potential strife between the 1st Princess and the 2nd Princess’s faction for the throne. At the very least, however, it was highly unlikely that the royal family’s business would collapse in a single generation during King David’s reign.
