After taking control of the salt tax, Mingzhan also took control of the imperial capital's industries.
The little industry in the imperial capital is actually a drop in the bucket and not a big deal. But various signs of the situation make people think more. The position of the crown prince is really secure.
After getting the money, the first thing Mingzhan did was to give red envelopes to his subordinates.
Elijah did have a lot of things, but he was short of money. The salary of the prince was only three thousand a year, and there was also a monthly allowance for each courtyard. Elijah was the first to receive one hundred taels a month, which was less than five thousand silver a year. With his status, he could not even afford to eat.
So Mingzhan was quite frugal, and with the occasional allowance from Princess Wei, he was able to get by.
