12.7.4

وهذا الملك كبير القدر عنده، عظيم الجاه، كثير المال، اخبرني صاحب ديوانه، ثقة الملك علاء الدين على المصري المعروف بابن الشرابشي أن نفقته ونفقة عبيده ومرتباتهم ستة وثلاثون لكا في السنة .

This malik is of great standing with him, of high rank and much wealth. His dīwān secretary, Thiqat al-Mulk ʿAlāʾ al-Dīn ʿAlī al-Miṣrī, known as Ibn al-Sharābishī, told me that his expenditure and that of his slaves and their salaries came to thirty-six lakhs a year.
