Chapter 610: Chapter 467: Increasing Income

After the enfeoffment ceremony, Arthur publicly announced the establishment of the Nobleman United Consortium, which would be managed by the royal financial group and open for investment only to the new nobility.

As long as one became a nobleman of Australasia, they would receive a basic share of the Nobleman United Consortium.

Generally speaking, a Sir would have a basic share, which could guarantee an annual dividend of at least 500 Australian dollars.

For a Baron, the basic shares would yield an annual dividend of 1500 Australian dollars, a Viscount 5000 Australian dollars, an Earl 12,000 Australian dollars, and a Duke 50,000 Australian dollars.

If the profits of the Nobleman United Consortium were insufficient to cover annual dividends, the royal financial group would sponsor them, ensuring that each noble would receive their own dividends.
