A Strange World

Chapter 1369 Section 3 Ready

Chapter 1369 Section 3. Ready

Joan is gone.

She will either become a powerful but bruised warrior, or become a background of Liberty City.

After all, in the battlefield with the ratmen, it is a luxury to keep the body.

Annan is not too pessimistic - because he saw that Ilimoyas secretly hid a dragon scale in the armor given to Joan.

Although I don't know how good their relationship is, from the fact that Ilimoyas is willing to carry her to fight, she will not sit idly by and watch Joan.

Spend the first night of the return journey in Liberty City covered with moonlight.

A new day has arrived, and the amazingly efficient machine called Liberty City is in operation.

The corner building with the busiest traffic in the commercial street was requisitioned, and the tenants and residents received a considerable compensation. Then Ili Crushed Stone came with his drawings, and it only took half a day to turn the mansions that can be seen everywhere in the city into a magnificent building with a wide hall and solemnity.

This is visible, but what is invisible is that a passage leading directly to the treasury was dug underground in the savings bank.

The sign of the savings bank was also hung up amid the curiosity of residents and tourists.

Annan personally went to the School of Life to teach outstanding students selected from the six colleges, teaching them the purpose of the "savings bank" and what they have to do.

But these are just superficial.

The concept of the bank is easy to understand, and anyone can build a house, and even how to attract customers is not the key - the most important thing is how to avoid loopholes.

What if a legend swaggers into the savings bank, takes a forged deposit certificate to withdraw money, casts a spell to confuse the teller, and takes away a large amount of gold that does not belong to him - what should we do?

So Annan also gave Lilith a deputy minister title, and she personally supervised the savings bank.

It prevents both external thieves and internal ghosts.

But this only solves the security problem of Liberty City. A savings bank that can only be opened in Liberty City has no meaning.

The deposit certificate of the savings bank must be something that exists in Liberty City, not in other places, cannot be copied, and can be mass-produced.

Annan asked Bronzebeard, who was most likely to tinker with this kind of thing, but the female dwarf politely told him to get out.

Then what is something that others don't have, but that he has uniquely?

Charm? This kind of thing can't be visualized...

Magic image? The pirated version of "The Fall of the Mage Tower" even filmed Jack sleeping with a female ratman.

Mixed with mountain copper? A deposit of 1 gold nar can't cost 10 gold nars, right?

Annan asked the students to help him come up with ideas.

Some of them said the devil's contract, and Annan said it was equivalent to forcing a cake into the devil's mouth. Some said the dragon's contract, and Annan said it was no different from the former. Others said leaves, because each leaf is unique - you can tell at a glance that you are a good student who listens attentively.

However, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention, and Annan did have an idea.

What else is more suitable than the leaves of the other world tree as a deposit?

Since the gate to the other world in the city of strange news was completely blocked, the world of Allen lost contact with the dying world behind the gate, and even merchants found it difficult to communicate.

So there is almost no other source of leaves from the Other World Tree, and they are unique to Liberty City.

"Which college are you from?" Annan asked with approval.

"Life College, Your Majesty!" The student showed the enthusiasm of a recruit.

"Call me Lord, Life College plus 10 points!"

Let them continue to study, Annan returned to the City Lord's Mansion without stopping, and picked a leaf from the Other World Tree.

In the past few months, he has studied it many times. In the scope of the Other World Tree, the leaves can be connected to each other. In addition, they are like the World Tree, never withering.

It is simple to eliminate the connection function, which can be done by destroying the leaves, such as cutting them into the shape of paper.

However, if you want to use it as a deposit, more experiments are needed.

Once it is decided to use the leaves of the Other World Tree as a deposit, the current hundreds of thousands of leaves may not be enough...

Annan still understands the principle of letting the horse graze before you want it to run. They need more humanity and more death row prisoners!

It's just that Liberty City is in the middle of nowhere right now, and even if he returns to Gem Bay, the security around the entire Gem Bay has increased by 99.8% due to the previous actions. Unless he catches a petty thief and sentences him to death, he really can't get a death row prisoner.

After thinking about it, Annan contacted Golden City again on the first day after leaving Broken Mountains, asking Wilson not to rush to execute the death row prisoner if he catches him, because he has a use.

Wilson didn't expect that Annan contacted him for the first time because of this matter, and said murderously: "Broken Mountains lacks everything, but coal and nobles who refuse to give up!"

One Broken Mountain alone may not be enough. Annan thought, can he "buy" a batch of death row prisoners through the two hundred commercial streets outside?

Those towns probably won't object to the opportunity to get money for free, and not catching innocent people is considered merciful. The only question is, will this damage the reputation of Liberty City?

No mistakes, one post, one content, one book, one bar!

...

As an excellent subordinate, it is Adoni's responsibility to share the worries of his lord.

When he learned that Annan wanted death row prisoners but didn't know how to ask, Dwight, who was in charge of the Seltovis Commercial Street and Diagon Alley, took the initiative to go to the City Hall and said that he wanted to collect a batch of death row prisoners and transport them to Montreal Mountain.

The deputy city lord who received Dwight did not suspect anything, but just thought that the majesty on Montreal Mountain had come up with some new tricks.

For example, death row prisoners brawl, building a new Jingguan, raising man-eating monsters, and other programs that the imperial people love to see.

As for why it was done by people from Liberty City instead of official channels... probably because of the actions of the ancestor's faction?

The deputy city lord said that he would do it right away. Not only did he not ask for money, he also specially asked the city guards to go around the city and capture more than a dozen people.

Although it is the "City of Innocence", there are always some dark things happening in the corners.

Other commercial streets followed suit after knowing this and also asked local officials for death row prisoners, using the excuse that the empire needed them.

When the news reached the Imperial Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the officials were confused.

How could they not know that His Majesty was going to hold a new event?

In any case, the Liberty City Prison was overcrowded for the first time in a long time. Just in case, the deputy warden Ying Ge checked these people and took them to the other world tree as fertilizer after confirming that they deserved to die.

The style of the deposit certificate was also finalized: a palm-sized parchment with a fingernail-sized leaf attached.

After all, it is too extravagant to use a whole leaf as a deposit slip, and a leaf of the Otherworld Tree can be cut into at least 30 deposit slips.

The anti-counterfeiting principle is very simple: the leaves of each deposit slip are photocopied in advance. When customers need to withdraw money, they present the deposit slip, and the depository checks the authenticity of the leaves, and then compares them with the photocopied pattern. If they match, they can withdraw money.

The principle is similar to that of a key, but it is a key that cannot be copied.

Although the Otherworld Tree is still very young, the difficulty of copying it is no different from that of copying the World Tree.
