Chapter 1,228 3 Knives
,!
Faced with this last key, Lin helplessly spread his hands and said: "There is no good way to target the nobles. Because whether it is safety or convenience, they have enough manpower, and even the army can guarantee it. Then we can only find people who are willing to cooperate and integrate the new currency usage method into the land under his jurisdiction and make it a part of people's lives. Fortunately, humans have a comparison and herd mentality. As long as a group of people use it, even if there is only one Some of the advantages are easy for others to imitate. By gradually expanding outward in this way, your Majesty's faith will eventually spread throughout the Lost Lands."
"Then who will be the first group of people at the beginning? According to what you said, do they have a reason to do this? If not, how can they achieve the goal you described." Ke Yin used someone to ask question, questioned.
Lin cracked a smile and said: "I have three knives in my hand that can cut through thorns and thorns. Use this to enter the game. As long as you use them well, you don't have to worry about those nobles not taking the initiative."
"Oh, which three?" Ke Yin asked curiously.
"First, the five elven kingdoms. The elven kingdom is relatively closed, but as far as I know, many of the elven specialties are pursued by human countries, and there have always been smuggled out, although the amount is rare. If the elven kingdom can Your new method is a transaction settlement method that opens the country to a limited extent. Countries and chambers of commerce that want to trade with the Elf Kingdom don’t seem to have many options. Right.”
Ke Yin agreed: "That's true. I know the first one, but what about the second one?"
"The Technology Guild that I established in the Holy City of Estari. This transaction method of non-physical currency was originally thought up in response to the fact that after the Technology Guild went to other places to provide goods and services, they were robbed and killed because they carried too much money. A solution. As long as security can be guaranteed, it is absolutely no problem for all the people in the Technology Guild to become His Majesty's believers. Then those who want to trade with the Technology Guild can enjoy a discount on the transaction amount as long as they are thrown out under your witness. . I believe that your faith is definitely not just within the guild, but can be expanded outwards. Well, you know the technology guild, right?" After Lin finished speaking, he thought of this question.
"The organization you set up is an organization united by craftsmen. I still know about it. Although they are not nobles, their influence is not less. So what is the third one?"
"Hey, there is a place. I have been looking for a way to conduct transactions without face to face for a long time. With these good methods, the people above have no reason not to use them. Guess where it is?" Lin sold it. Guanzi.
The halfling goddess didn't feel dissatisfied, she lowered her head and thought about it seriously. The red magic stone rolled and rolled in his hands, playing various tricks. At this moment, looking at the magic stone in his hand, he was startled and vaguely touched the answer. After a while, He looked at someone with an uncertain look and asked, "Is this a forum?"
"correct!"
The way of transactions in Midi has always been face-to-face, with one hand paying the money and the other hand delivering the goods. The payment must be settled in cash, and installments are not accepted. Of course, there are no issues with checks and bill expiration dates.
When it comes to entrusting a merchant with a specified item that is not in stock, the custom is to pay the full price in advance and let the merchant go look for it elsewhere. All expenses incurred during the trip are included in the purchase price and are non-refundable and non-refundable. Therefore, whether you can make money depends on the businessman's own ability.
As for whether you are worried about taking the money and running away? People who basically insist on purchasing designated items instead of just looking for substitutes are usually the kind of people who are not afraid of merchants running away with their money. There is no crime of breach of trust or fraud in Midi. Basically, they are hunted down thousands of miles and beaten to death.
What is more likely to happen is that the merchant dies during the journey, and the deal naturally ends in vain. As for whether the buyer can recover the money he paid in advance, it depends on his own ability. Besides, there are a lot of necromancy or prophecy magic in the Lost Land. Just because a person dies does not mean that the clues are cut off. There are still traces to follow.
But when forums, a new thing, appeared in the Lost Continent, the distance between people became blurred. It is possible to live thousands of miles apart but still be able to chat without any hindrance through forums. At this time, information on some rare items also quickly circulated. But business transactions have not kept pace with the exchange of intelligence.
The bottom line is that in Midi's traditional trading methods, most of the risks involved in the transaction process are concentrated on merchants who need to travel around and transport goods.
What if they go through all the trouble to deliver the goods to their destination, only to find that the buyer is missing, or that the entire transaction is actually a scam. Losing time and money is a small matter, but in serious cases, you may lose the life of the guardian, or even your own life.
In this case, the guarantee that the transaction can proceed smoothly is that the merchant can obtain the full payment in advance.
However, the trust between the two parties in the transaction is equivalent to nothing, and it takes two or three exchanges to establish the most basic mutual trust. The natives of Midland are quite restrained in the degree of trust they place on the friends they meet on the forum. You will not decide to conduct a risky long-distance transaction just because of a few words of empty guarantee from the other party.
Therefore, if you want to complete a long-distance transaction to buy rare items, the buyer can only come to the door in person or entrust someone else to bring the money, and then go home after buying the items. In this way, it takes one round trip time. It's quite time-consuming, and the buyer also bears the risk of the journey on himself.
If there is a function similar to the earth network transfer at this time, the seller can receive the full payment without meeting. Then, under the premise that the transaction has been guaranteed to be established, the seller will naturally have to fulfill the subsequent contracts.
As for being cheated, distance may not necessarily be a protective shield for the scammer. Even if the deceived party is too lazy to cross such a long distance to seek revenge, don't forget that it is much easier to pay for a murder in a lost place than back home.
Regardless of whether it is an adventurer's guild or a mercenary guild, as long as the reason is reasonable, a bounty on someone's head can still be put on the taskbar. Otherwise, there are also some shady dark transactions of the two major guilds, or the assassination business of the Thieves Guild, which can all be solved with money.
In addition to the aforementioned situation, there is another kind of transaction on the forum that requires this kind of transfer function, which is to purchase certain knowledge that has restricted circulation on the forum and exists in files. Simply put, it is non-physical goods.
It may be extremely confidential map information, or adventure information in dangerous areas, or information about the presence of Warcraft in a certain area. Although this information is publicly available for free on the forum, since the development of the forum, there has been a mixture of true and false information, especially information related to timeliness. Sometimes it's not the updater who is a liar, it's just that his information is out of date.
If you want to buy a reputable and more accurate version, the old method is for the buyer to come directly to the website. After paying the sufficient amount of money, the restricted section of the forum will be opened to the buyer. Or the willing buyer entrusts someone else to send the money to the seller, and then opens the permissions.
This kind of transaction method cannot avoid sending money to your door anyway, which is a waste of time. If the buyer and seller are far apart, it can be fatal.
At this time, the Goddess of Gold Coins can provide a transaction method that strangers can trust. Why should everyone refuse to use it?
Even if the priests or bishops of the church devoutly believe in the master they serve, the gods will not prohibit their believers from contacting other gods or even paying respects. Unless the camps are really different, or they are mortal enemies. However, the Goddess of Gold Coins is the kind of weak god who has no sense of existence and is so serious that she has no enemies.
After explaining all the above, Lin regretted that he didn't bring any water with him. With his mouth dry, he could only drink the unknown scented tea that Lucretia had brewed with "holy water" and had cooled down.
After hearing the vision described by someone, Ke Yin didn't look as dizzy as when he first saw the plan. Having calmed down, He once again confirmed that this whole thing was indeed promising. But the mortal in front of him still seemed to have something to say. Even with a god-level thinking ability, Ke Yin hasn't thought through the whole thing yet.
This made Ke Yin's attitude cool down, and he calmly looked at the mortal in front of him. The indifference possessed by the gods seems to have returned to this one. He stretched out three short fingers and said: "Three questions. There are many things in your plan that I can't do. Even though I am a god, what I can't do is that I can't do it. This requires What should I do? Secondly, I don’t have enough manpower to cover the entire Mystery with strongholds like you said. In fact, just one country is enough. Thirdly, which is what I care about most, What do you get by pushing this? I've met a lot of selfless fools, but none of them are magicians."
Facing the sudden questioning from the halfling goddess in front of him, Lin felt a little admiration. He was not as hot-headed as imagined and blindly believed that he could do everything. It was not that he refused the proposal without any leeway in order to maintain the arrogance of the gods. It is not an easy thing to be able to stay calm and see yourself through many temptations.
Lin clasped his hands together and said, "If you can't do something, you can try and study it. Otherwise, you can also ask friends for help."
Suddenly, someone's fingers were flying, and his hands were forming seals. The powerful holy seals belonging to the World Tree condensed in front of him one by one. Finally, a pixelated version of the three-headed monkey. Lin said: "Gabrash Tripwood, the leader of the Turtle Dove Alliance, hereby invites His Majesty Coyne to join. What I want comes from them; what they want comes from you. So as a In exchange, I was sent here.”
"Oh." After hearing the new information, Ke Yin quickly rethought all this and whether there was a trap hidden inside.
"As for the problem of manpower, haha, I think this is the least thing to worry about. As long as you relax your standards and don't have to be very religious in your beliefs, you can use everything you will build. Then you will find that there will be many people willing to Join it. Whether as a user or your Majesty's human helper. Just like the eight Lords of Power, they do not require magicians to have devout beliefs, but they still do not reduce their power. Can. Can't you?"
Ke Yin was shocked when he heard the object of comparison. He forced himself to calm down and asked in a deep voice: "What exactly do you want to do?"
