As mentioned before, never mind other places—half of Taiping City belonged to Aunt Zhao.
Textile shops, trading houses, all sorts of other businesses.
And outside Taiping City, there were also the manors in the surrounding villages and the Travelers she supported.
You could say that in all of Taiping City, the number of people who received money directly from Aunt Zhao's hands every day was at least seven or eight thousand, maybe even over ten thousand.
As for those who indirectly relied on the Zhao Family to make a living, their numbers were in the tens of thousands.
So, what was the Zhao Family's status in Taiping City?
It was like Samsung's status in Korea back on Earth.
They were the chaebol of chaebols.
Such a massive family enterprise actually relied entirely on the Spirit Stone Mine.
But everyone knew the current situation with things like Spirit Stone Mines.
Sooner or later, they were going to be reclaimed by the Court.
