750,000 pounds, which is the annual income of the Tudor royal family, and at this time, the annual income of the wealthy Henry II reached one million, which is still a gap in comparison.

There is a lot of money, but more is spent. The combined annual cost of the two spy organizations, Bloodblade and the Palace Intelligence Service, is fifty or sixty thousand pounds a year.

There were also 20,000 pounds a month for the salaries of the Guards and the Navy, and the construction of the courts, and the various dukes and counties, if you add the cost of the court, then at least 400,000 pounds a year, which was also a year when there were no wars.

In fact, it was the court that had the greatest expense. During the reign of Henry VIII, the annual cost of clothing was more than 100,000 pounds.

On the contrary, in other aspects, the royal family's expenses are pitiful.

Of course, this is true not only of the nobility and royal families of England, France, Spain, Austria and other countries.

The advent of the Renaissance and the Age of Discovery liberated human nature and freed it from the oppression of religion.

And when it comes to the aristocracy, the expression is even stronger.

Once the aristocracy was released by religious repression, the consequences were terrible.

In the Middle Ages, religion required people to dress simply, be faithful and be companionial.

In the past, the nobles secretly kept mistresses, afraid of seeing the light, but now, the nobles openly keep mistresses, and even come to show off more than whose mistresses.

And the clothing is even more extreme. Before each nobleman attended the banquet, he had to prepare a unique and gorgeous dress, which would be ridiculed if he wore old clothes.

And it is often the case that the cost of preparing such a dress is at least hundreds or thousands of pounds, and if your dress is outstanding, you will get the affection of the ladies and become the darling of the banquet.

Male aristocrats tend to be more obsessed with beauty than women.

For example, Henry VIII, the proud and complacent king, owned hundreds or thousands of clothes, and even when he didn't have enough money, he asked Parliament to approve taxes to buy clothes.

Therefore, the way to identify a nobleman is very simple, just look at how often he changes his clothes and the luxurious clothes.

The emperor's new clothes in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale are satirical to the aristocracy.

The remaining 300,000 pounds was used by Edward to develop industry and establish an industry belonging to the royal family.

In this regard, Edward was ready to spend 50,000 pounds to develop the woolen and cotton textile industry, which was England's strong point, with little risk and large profits, and was the most suitable for investment.

Moreover, the Spanish market is vigorously developed, and the demand exceeds the demand, so it is not worrying about sales.

Moreover, it is also possible to supply the annual refitting of the Guards and the Navy.

At this time, the uniforms of the Guards and the Navy were only distributed when they joined, and they were basically for a lifetime, and there was no such thing as changing clothes at all.

Therefore, cotton textile mills are used to make soldiers' clothing, and woolen woolen factories are used to serve officers, which can be used for the army and can be exported to create profits, which is a good investment direction.

According to the plan, he also had to spend £20,000 to build a steel mill.

In the centuries that followed, steel was the most powerful country.

Steel could not only be used to forge weapons, but also to produce agricultural tools when it was wealthy, and to increase the agricultural productivity of England, and this steel mill must be built.

If there is a steel plant, then there must also be an arsenal.

In this regard, Edward also allocated another 50,000 pounds to establish an arsenal for the production of flintlock pistols and cannons, as well as gunpowder, to establish a modern military industry.

The navy is spending a lot of money. If Spain is to be defeated and dominate Europe, the current England navy must be tenfold larger to have any hope.

Therefore, Edward had to invest 100,000 pounds a year in the construction of ships and the training of crews in the navy, which was the minimum.

In addition to this, it is necessary to develop its own fleet, develop its handicraft industry and, of course, have its own bank.

Speaking of banks, the trustee of the Royal Bank at this time, Adler. Mr. Todd was now sitting in his chair with a smile on his face, quietly and peacefully looking at the middle-aged man in front of him.

Although he didn't say a word, this silent majesty couldn't help but be more shocking, and his upturned lips naturally carried sarcasm or ridicule, making the middle-aged man sitting opposite his face more and more pale.

"Mr. Dwight, you know the purpose of my visit to you today! Need I get this straight? With a light tone, Adler casually placed his hands in a casual manner, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"I understand, Mr. Todd!" The middle-aged man wiped his sweat and looked at Adler opposite him pleadingly, "Give me a week, as long as a week, I will turn around, and I owe you 20,000 pounds and a penny to pay you back!" ”

The middle-aged man's face was tired, and his long brown hair, which had been meticulously combed, was messy at this time, looking at Adler with a pitiful gaze and a pleading expression.

"It's not that I won't give you a chance, Mr. Dwight!" Adler had a sincere expression on his face, "It's just that you didn't take advantage of the opportunity!" God can't save you anymore! ”

"It's been a month since you repaid your loan!" Adler said disappointedly, "But you still haven't repaid the loan, you can't blame me for being too vicious!" ”

"According to the treaty, this place will be mine in the future, and you can only live in the stinking ditch in the slums in the future!" Adler said with a look of pity on his face and a smile.

"Adler, don't think I don't know that you sent someone to instigate the robbery of my bank, and you also bribed the people of the Police Department!"

Seeing that he was about to lose all his wealth, Dwight stood up violently, his face pale, pointed to Adler's nose, and said excitedly.

"Huh! I'm just using your tricks against other people, I'm just learning from you! Adler shook his head, shrugging off his accusations and smiling faintly.

"Besides, do you think I don't know you're going to run? Is it a ship three days later? ”

Looking at Dwight, whose face was even paler, sweat dripping like rain, Adler couldn't help but sneer.

"You're going to sell the bank to a Hanseatic merchant named Bill today, and I'm afraid I'll lose all my money when I send me away!"

Speaking of this, Adler's face became more and more ugly, and he suppressed Dwight sentence by sentence, and his voice was compelling.

"This is Lawyer Douglas, do you need me to kick you out?"

As he spoke, a meticulously haired, eagle-eyed man walked out and bowed to Dwight.

Dwight collapsed to the ground, knowing that this time he might really be homeless.

"You send someone to clean up the office, this rotten gambler's room, I'm afraid there is a curse of doom or something, I don't want to stay!"

As he spoke, Adler walked directly out of the headquarters of the bank with four branches, and commanded the bank staff beside him majestically.
