I got it now. I thought it could be the thing you all mentioned but didn't know word "influence" put in this sentence/ grammar so wasn't very sure.
" a great wealth and influence" sounds like a political joke to me! haha. Thank you very much.For the Japanese learners .

Hello Chi,
The word 'influence' could mean (among other meanings) by definition 'power resulting from wealth' .That is the precise sense in this context.
The kind of power resulting from wealth could be being well-connected,having rank , authority, control...etc

influence = 勢力
In the old days, the wealthy had far greater influence in politics and power. I think he means that kind of influence.

Influence comes with wealth. Rich people can influence others to do them favours thereby expecting them to do a favour for them in the near future. Think of rich people in your city and the power they have over others.
