However, Louis would have considered this to be a good investment as a large army could be used to collect taxes even more effectively, especially when the King decided to raise the taille to add even more money to raise income.
The common tax - the taille - was increased to finance French foreign policy and this was organised by the chancellor Antoine Duprat.
As early as 1439 the nobility had given the king the right to maintain a standing army and to raise the taille which was a tax to pay for the army.
He abandoned the countryside above all to escape the taille , a tax to which, unlike the nobles, he would have been subject if he had continued to live in rural France.
Colbert was able, in his first decade, to get a grip on taxation and revenue, reduce the level of the taille by 20 per cent, cut the cost of servicing the debt and the costs of revenue farming.
