302 Unconscious change
Philip shook his head and sighed, "I haven't received a salary in 17 years since I ascended the throne.
Moreover, the 2.5 million pounds of royal funds per year have long been insufficient to maintain the operation of the entire royal family.
But England's economy has been declining in recent years, and the fiscal deficit of the government last year was as high as 800 million pounds.
This year, the trade deficit has reached 108 million pounds.
The per capita annual income of the people not only did not increase compared with last year and the previous year, but instead decreased by 41 pounds.
Even once the deficit and trade deficit cannot be solved, the pound will be bearish by other countries and passively depreciate.
In this case, I really don’t want to and cannot say to the public that the royal family can no longer maintain the decency it should have.
But if we don’t think of a solution, we can only reduce the cost of the royal family, and even move out of Platinum Han Palace to live in a smaller castle.”
“Reduce the cost?”
Princess Margaret suddenly said anxiously, "Phillip, Anthony and I are more than 8,000 yuan a month, and the annual royal salary of 100,000 pounds a year is not enough.
If you reduce it, we both can only stay in Kensington Palace all day and then dismiss half of our entourage and staff.”
In addition to Li Changheng, the people at the scene suddenly became worried and melancholy.
This is why he told Philip before.
Even if the Americans fall into an economic recession due to the Vietnam War, the rate of decline of the pound will definitely be greater than the rate of decline of the US dollar.
The 1990s in the island country were a decade of loss, so England from the 1960s to 1980s was a decade of loss.
It completely interrupted the pride in the hearts of the English and became the follower of the Americans.
While Anne was worried about Philip, she thought that she had a £1 million a year.
Although paying the salary of the entourage, servant, panda restaurant management team, and the family's annual daily expenses.
There are also donations from eleven charities, but since Henry took over the expenses of Olympic athletes in the United States.
There are £3.4 million a year, which can really be used by yourself.
Thinking about it this way, I seem to be more economically than everyone in the royal family.
Annie immediately smiled and loved in her eyes, looking at Li Changheng's side face.
Li Changheng secretly gave Philip a look with a frown.
Last year, he donated £25 million worth of land near Hyde Park to his royal private fund.
And after buying the land, the land was in the account of the offshore island company under his name and lasted for more than a week.
The relevant data has long been in his mind.
Merchants and tenants on this land alone have to pay a minimum rent of £900,000 per year.
With Philip's other businesses over the years, the royal private fund's annual income is less than £4 million, so he is willing to make up for it.
When Anne's grandmother saw Li Changheng glance at Philip a few times, she immediately knew that her little thoughts had been seen through.
Moreover, she is old and has a strong mind, and she also suspects that there are many secrets between Li Changheng and Philip that everyone doesn't know.
He quickly coughed and said, "Or the new company is placed under the name of the Family Foundation.
Then Anne got 30%, Philip and Mary got 40%.
Charles, Andrew and Margaret each one 10%?"
Mary, Charles, Andrew and his son are definitely unwilling to do so.
Hello, I was chatting and laughing, and Charles and Andrew were a little unhappy.
It would be strange if 20% of the original turn into 10%.
Unfortunately, no matter how unhappy it is, it can only be like this in the end.
The nobles and royal families themselves are landlords and feudal classes. Although there must be family affection, many practices still make people feel cold and even indifferent.
