Chapter 1,258 Listening to the Holy Sound

Lin Kai explained a frustrated follower and said: "I don't deny that maybe someone can use the borrowed funds properly. In the end, not only can they repay it smoothly, but they can also make their career grow. But considering the worst-case scenario, do you think What should the goddess do? If it would be difficult, then why not not touch these embarrassing things in the first place. Anyway, even if the bank does not do the lending business, there are other people who do it. As long as there is a demand, someone will meet it. We As a financial tool to ensure the safety of property, Anxin allows the majesty of the Goddess of Gold to spread throughout the entire land in a positive image; instead of being a man-eating beast that gnaws the last bones of those unlucky people, Isn’t that great?”

Uzov sighed, lowered his head and said: "Well, sir, it's just that I didn't think well. It's just..." He raised his head with a worried face and said: "Sir, don't consider the worst case scenario. Things like borrowing and lending. , which is good for borrowers and profitable for banks. And according to your plan, banks will be spread all over the country in the future, and there will always be some places where local people are used. It will be difficult for you to control people from contacting this aspect of the business, right? .”

Someone showed a smile that he thought was kind, but was actually a sly smile, and said: "So, Melson, your job is very important. Make sure that all the elves who go out after training in the first bank will not violate this taboo. And in the future , I have prepared a big gift to give to those who cross the red line. I can guarantee that even if not all the family members are killed, they will be neat and tidy; anyone who dares to do such immoral things in the name of Ke Yin will He will be crushed to pieces and ashes will be thrown away, and he will not die a good death."

The originally proud dark elves and the dejected followers all felt a chill in their hearts when they saw someone with such an expression. The reason why Jermaine, the silver-bearded dwarf, was dissatisfied and left was precisely because of the hidden bad character of the magician.

He was always gleefully digging a hole in a place most people didn't know existed. When someone fell in, instead of rescuing them, he filled the hole and buried them with a smile. Many times, others don't even know they've walked into a trap. Or it would be like the goblin father and daughter, being forced to swallow smelly dog ​​shit, which would be so uncomfortable.

The incident before him now is not a reflection of his bad character.

Putting a fragrant bait in front of other people's eyes. Although I repeatedly emphasized not to eat it, I'm afraid not many people can resist such temptation. However, unknown to everyone, this man has prepared another 'big gift', a surprise that no one wants for those who eat the poison bait. If this is not called evil, then even demons can really be counted in the good camp.

Shaking his head, Uzov tried to forget everything he had seen and heard before. In order to change my mood, I asked about another thing that I had originally thought of. He held the new coin and asked: "Sir, as long as you deposit the money into the goddess' kingdom, will it definitely become this new coin? Can't you keep the old one?"

Pulled back from his evil thoughts, Lin asked puzzledly: "Why do you have to use the old one?"

"I know some old guys who may be scared by bad coins. They really don't accept good coins from non-empires. Some people even only accept coins from the Gwana Empire, and are not even willing to take money from the other four empires. . There are also those who are so stubborn that they are willing to cut prices when the opponent's Guwana Empire coins are not enough. In the past, some people took advantage of their personalities and kept their remuneration very low. Anyway, they only prepared so many Guwana Empire coins. , whether you like to take it or not. After the guild was established, as long as it was not work in other places, the commissioned remuneration would be deposited in the guild. When I handed it over to those old guys, I ordered the clerks below to go there carefully. Give them coins they can accept so that these people will not be forced to do things at a loss."

After thinking for a while, Lin said: "Basically, this is a question of the credibility of the currency, not just a certain kind of money. Try to contact them and see. And after changing to new money, because of the blessing of the goddess's power, Therefore, the coins are not easy to be destroyed, and the value of the coins can be maintained. Moreover, it is easier for the World Trees to transfer the coins, which is conducive to long-term development. Besides, the unification of coin values ​​is also good for buyers and sellers. You have to use old money. I don’t think the reasons are tenable or suitable for future development.”

Uzov was a little embarrassed, but he didn't insist anymore and said, "Okay, I'll try to talk to them. But sir, you mentioned that the coins are blessed by divine power, so they are difficult to destroy. What do you mean?"

Pointing to the coin that the other party was playing with, Lin said, "The thing is in your hand. Try it and see if you can bend it and leave a mark."

Although they didn't believe it, Uzov and Maiershan still used the conventional gold coin inspection method, which was to bite it with their teeth. Unfortunately, after one bite, the gold coin that should have teeth marks was intact. The two of them were confused, and they broke and folded it, but it turned out that they couldn't cause any damage. Uzov's first thought blurted out: "Is this fake money?"

Lin laughed and said, "Of course it's true, and it's even weighing." As he spoke, he fiddled with the small scale placed on the corner of the table, signaling to anyone who had questions to weigh it.

In fact, the original circulating coins of Midi, even if they come from the same source, have slightly different weights. The gold, silver, and copper coins made by Lin do not depend on the purity, but only on the weight, which is roughly the average value of old ordinary coins. So there will still be situations where old coins are heavier than new coins, but the difference is not big.

Melson, who was once a dark elf priest, did not draw such arbitrary conclusions. She held the coin in her hand and closed her eyes to explore. After a while, he said: "Although the power is very weak, there is indeed a little bit of divine power hidden in the coin." Opening his eyes, Melson seemed to be unable to figure out something, and murmured: "How can this be done?"

"If someone asks such a question, just reply 'miracle'." Someone doesn't feel that this kind of thing needs to be explained to outsiders.

Thinking of another question, Uzov asked: "What if the coins are to be used for other purposes? Such coins are not easy to use."

"If you want to recast it, you only need to pray to the goddess and ask her to take back her divine power. You can give it a try."

One person and one dark elf looked at each other. They prayed in the usual way, holding their fists and praying silently. Of course, they first complimented the gold coin goddess with their own words, and then said their destination.

When the prayer ended, although they could not see it, they clearly felt that something very important had floated away from the pile of coins in front of them. The next moment, the originally beautifully carved and crystal clear coin began to twist and deform, returning to its original appearance of a small lump of metal.

Seeing this, Uzov picked up the golden lump and bit it. This time the teeth marks were left successfully. He said in surprise: "There is really divine power in it. So what if we want to turn it into money again...?"

Lin answered: "Deposit it directly into the goddess's kingdom. When you take it out again, you will get coins instead of small gold nuggets."

"Aren't you going to be charged another deposit fee?" Uzov asked.

"That's right. The goddess has used her supernatural power to help you, so it's reasonable to charge a certain price."

Although this was the truth, Uzov still found it strange. Picking up the intact coin that had not yet deformed, he struggled for a long time and then said, "It feels like something is missing."

"What's wrong with something?" Lin was puzzled.

Uzov explained: "After that, when the bank is built and the functions of the Gold Coin Goddess' coins and banks come into use, it will not be a problem for the Technical Guild to fully use the new money. As long as the value of the coins is recognized, what money is used will only be determined within the guild." Question. I still have the power to decide these small things. I just want to promote this new currency and make people outside the guild willing to use it. It feels like there is still some incentive missing."

Uzov thought for a while and tried to explain his thoughts more clearly. "Perhaps this will only allow people to use the functions of the bank when necessary, instead of deliberately exchanging currency. After all, depositing money into the bank will be charged. No matter how low the ratio is set, it is There will be a sum of money taken away by the goddess. This is correct to understand. And if the coins are not easily destroyed, some people may worry about the authenticity. Although you can request to take back the divine power and directly melt the coins to confirm the purity, in the end Not that convenient.”

"There is a simple way to distinguish authenticity." Lin said with a smile.

"Oh, what?" Not only Uzov was interested, but also Meyer looked curious.

Uzov even thought about praying and asking the gods directly? This is indeed a good approach. But something always felt wrong.

But Lin did not ask his followers to pray to the gods again and ask about the authenticity of the coins. Instead, he gently twisted the center of a gold coin and said, "Listen to Your Majesty's holy voice." After saying that, he blew on the edge of the coin, and then quickly put the coin to Uzov's ear. .

The humming sound is endless.

Uzov was surprised and said: "What is this sound!"

"What, there is a sound? What kind of sound?" Melson asked curiously.

Lin used his fingers to flexibly play with the gold coin he blew. He pointed at the coins on the table that had not been drained of the magic power and had a complete shape, and said: "Take any coins on the table and you can try them. Each type of coin has only one sound. Look for this sound." You won’t get fake money.”

Merle picked out a silver coin, blew it casually, and put it to her ear, but she didn't hear any sound. She glanced at a certain magician with a suspicious look. Lin remained silent and just demonstrated again. He put the coin to his mouth, blew hard towards the edge, and then immediately put it to his ear. During the process, his eyes were extremely provocative.

After watching the demonstration, Maiershan immediately corrected his blowing movements and position. This time, the silver coins whispered in my ears as expected, crisp and pleasant. The dark elf's expression changed from suspicion to surprise, and he seemed to be intoxicated by the sound.

Uzov exchanged several different coins in turn, and while blowing and listening, he said: "Coins, Huh! How is it possible, Huh! It makes a sound. Huh! This, Huh! It's really weird. Huh. ! This is, ho! Really? Hoo! No, ho! What weird, ho! trick? Hoo! This money, ho! Poisonous, must be. Hoo! The charm exerted by the above, ho! Magic, ho!"

If the buzzing sound of the coins hadn't stopped immediately, Lin would have been afraid that the follower would put money into his ears. Looking at the two people in front of him who couldn't put it down, Lin smiled and said: "This is money. You throw it on the street and look at it. As soon as you turn around, it is picked up by others. There is no need to add any charm magic."
