How do I LARGELY increase my passive income?

Hi, so I'm a vassal, I have 1 city & 2 castles, maxed all of their constructions, have 3/5 successful workshops.

Each of my castle's garrisons, my party, and my wife's party cost around 1-2k gold, and so I make around 7k per day, and I lose around 7k per day to keep all those settlements protected.

Most of the garrisons are 3-4 tier troops, but even if I downgraded them all, it wouldn't make me that much money.

I tried going against the king before, and I couldn't convince a vassal to join me, cuz he asked for 1.5 million gold. Assuming that I want to make this amount within 100 days, I'd need to earn 15k per day.

There's just no way I could make that much difference in my income. Even If I had zero costs, I still wouldn't make this much.

Maybe if I participated in the war and got all those tributes, but I've already made Vladia way too powerful, I actually need them to LOSE a few fiefs, not gain more, considering that I intend to fight them later. So I don't participate, so I have no tribues. AAAAGH!!!1.

I just need more money. MORE. MONEY. MOOOAR. 15K PER DAY. HOOOOOW
