Duke White was not an exception.
He also had so small businesses that he asked the Head Butler to manage most of the ti. From ti to ti, Duke White would also go check his businesses to make sure it was still doing well.
However, it was usually just thrown to the Head Butler.
Until now, Duke White didn’t seem to rember the business either.
And most of them were not very profitable. After so ti, the Head Butler knew that these things were actually costing more money and this made the Head Butler rather helpless.
He knew that Duke White was a bit stupid, but this was a bit too much, isn’t it?
"Then you can just sell them when they’re not profitable." Duke White frowned. He felt that such a thing could be handled by the Head Butler without the need to co to him. Looking at the Head Butler in front of him, Duke White felt even more dissatisfied.
If not because he knew that the Head Butler was really capable and also soone whom his father arranged to help him, Duke White might not be willing to let the Head Butler continued to work for him.
But he himself was not very capable.
Without the help of these people around him, Duke White might not even be able to manage his territory at all.
"Selling any property requires your agreent, Master," The Head Butler said indifferently.
Duke White: "..."
He took a deep breath and felt that it was really difficult for him.
"If I sell those business that are no longer profitable, how much money can I have?" Duke White asked.
There were also the taxes from the White Family’s territory. But the number of the tax itself was not very high. After all, it has increased due to Duke White’s request and by now, it was already hard enough for the people to fulfill it.
The Head Butler also saw this and had to lower the tax for the previous years.
There were already many people who couldn’t afford the previous tax rate.
"Not much, about this figure." The Head Butler calculated the minimum amount he could sell these stores for and then write the number to show Duke White.
But when Duke White saw it, he was speechless. "It couldn’t be that little, right?"
The Head Butler simply looked at Duke White.
It was indeed that low.
Duke White frowned and then asked, "How about if I keep it?"
"The maintenance cost and then..."
With the Head Butler’s patience explanation, Duke White realized that keeping these stores would actually cost more. In the end, he authorized for the Head Butler to sell these stores.
The money from the selling would be used by Duke White to buy so things and also to give to Duchess Isabella.
Hopefully, it would be enough to fund her party’s habit.
The rest would be used to fill up the gap that was needed by Duke White.
...
Adela’s side
Life as the crown princess was much harder than what Adela thought.
After that negotiation in which she had to take a look and the tea party, Queen Ella felt that Adela was lacking. She still reported to the Yellow Kingdom King, but they both agreed that the two people needed more education. In the end, Adela was asked to participate in the various training to make sure she could beco the qualified crown princess.
If Adela had to say, it was nightmare.
In the first place, Adela was not exactly a person who liked studying. It was even more so when the studying subject was sothing like this.
There were so many things that was cramd to her head that Adela felt dizzy.
She didn’t understand why the crown princess have to study so much.
And alongside her was naturally Crown Prince Edward who also have to study.
The two of them didn’t like it, but they couldn’t escape.
In the end, Adela fell sick.
"Miss, drink the dicine." The servant felt rather helpless when she looked at Adela who was lying weakly on her bed.
Adela’s body was actually really weak. In the past, it was really hard for Adela to even walk another step outside her bedroom without her collapsing first. In the end, it took such a long ti for Adela before she could act like a normal person.
Whenever Adela thought about those days, she would feel that her life was really miserable.
Thankfully, she didn’t have to co over when Adela was still much younger.
Because at that ti, Adela was definitely much weaker than the current her and it would be very boring to only be able to stay on the bed. Adela couldn’t figure out how the real Adela managed to pass those boring days.
After she had beco considerably healthy and entered the Capital Academy, Adela had never fallen sick again.
Well, she did have so light cold one or two tis, but it was nothing serious.
At least, she only needed to rest for a bit and drink so dicine to recover faster. Crown Prince Edward accompanied her during that ti and Adela was really happy. With her favorite person around, how could she not be happy?
As ti passed, people thought that Adela’s body was no longer weak.
After all, Adela didn’t get sick much when she was in the Capital Academy, which was not like soone who had weak body.
But they were wrong.
When Adela got stressed out like this and spent the night awake in the cold temperature, she woke up with cold and fever. Considering that she had to finish the howork given to her, Adela couldn’t hold on and fall sick in the middle.
This made Adela feel really miserable.
Did she have to study so much as the crown princess?
What she didn’t know was that the content of study for Aurora was more than 10 tis harder than her. She also has to study ever since she was young, which was difficult for such a young girl, but she still did it.
The study Adela had was far from comparable.
This comparison really made the maids who served Adela felt that their young miss was really poor.
