Chapter 1412: Shorting Phoenix Coin
In the following year, Qin Tian and his team manipulated a total of seven materials.
With the help of the major forces in Fengling Empire, it was extremely smooth and made a lot of money. Compared with the wealth that Qin Tian brought into Fengling Empire, the current wealth has increased nearly a thousand times.
Of course, the major forces also made a lot of money.
But the situation of the small forces in Fengling Empire was not so good.
Of course, some of the small forces made a lot of money, but most of them lost everything. As for the ordinary citizens who joined, they basically lost everything.
Poverty easily breeds crime.
After those small forces that lost everything owed a lot of debts, they chose to take risks and secretly used assassins to rob treasures to plunder wealth to maintain themselves.
And those ordinary people who lost all their wealth also began to make trouble everywhere, or chose to escape in order to avoid debts.
The debtors were naturally not good people, so how could they let them escape.
Therefore, chaos began to appear in Fengling Empire.
"Sir, what materials should we speculate next?"
In a manor in Yanming City, Princess Lingyun asked Qin Tian.
"No more speculation!"
Qin Tian shook his head.
"If we don't speculate materials, will we speculate elixirs and holy artifacts?"
"Neither!"
Qin Tian shook his head.
But Princess Lingyun fell into deep thought. During this period, she had been following Qin Tian and learned a lot.
After a while, Princess Lingyun woke up from her meditation: "Sir, are you going to speculate Phoenix Coins?"
"A young man is teachable!"
Qin Tian nodded with satisfaction. Hearing this, Princess Lingyun's cheeks under the mask turned slightly red: "I'm far behind you, sir!"
Although Zhaoyan County King on the side had made progress, he was not as good as Princess Lingyun, so he was very puzzled: "How to speculate this Phoenix Coin?"
Qin Tian took out a Phoenix Coin and asked the two: "Do you think this Phoenix Coin itself has value?"
Phoenix Coins are only made of special crystals and do not contain any energy.
Both of them shook their heads: "Neither Phoenix Coins nor Saint Coins have any value in themselves!"
"Right!"
Qin Tian smiled: "Whether it is the Saint Coins of the Holy Alliance, the Phoenix Coins of the Fengling Empire, or the Sky Coins of the Sky Empire, they have no value in themselves. The reason why they have purchasing power is that they can be exchanged for Saint Crystals. Therefore, their value comes from Saint Crystals. Without Saint Crystals, these three coins are worthless!"
"So that's it!" Prince Zhaoyan showed a look of sudden realization: "Then how should we speculate on Phoenix Coins?"
"Lingyun, you come and explain it to him!"
Qin Tian looked at Princess Lingyun.
She was encouraged, so she pondered for a while and said: "Now, we have a huge amount of Feng coins in our hands, and then we can exchange all the Feng coins for Saint Crystals, and then encourage the major forces in the Fengling Empire to take action. Then, the Saint Crystals stored in the Crystal Department of the Fengling Empire will definitely be exchanged out, and then we will encourage the citizens of the Fengling Empire to exchange. If the Crystal Department cannot exchange, it will cause panic, thereby shaking the value represented by the Feng coins. If this trend becomes a trend, it will cause the Fengling Empire's Feng coins to collapse.
Once the Feng coins collapse, what will happen?"
Hearing this, Zhao Yanjun was dumbfounded. Once the Feng coins system collapses, it will lose its purchasing power.
For example, you have worked for a hundred years and plan to use the saved Feng coins to buy a pill to break through your cultivation, but suddenly found that the Feng coins are worthless. Originally, 100,000 Feng coins can buy a pill, but now it takes 500,000, or even 800,000. Do you feel resentful?
In addition, the army pays salaries, and the salaries of officials are also Feng coins.
If Feng coins are worthless, do officials have any objections?
Soldiers have no resentment?
I fought hard in the front, and now the salary you gave me has become useless. Will the soldiers not be in an uproar?
Therefore, the collapse of the Phoenix Coin system is not only the collapse of the Phoenix Coin, but also the collapse of many other systems.
If the Phoenix Spirit Empire wants to save the collapsed Phoenix Coin system, it has to take out a large amount of Saint Crystals.
The key is that Saint Crystals are not like gold in the Earth Spirit Realm.
Saint Crystals are consumables. Generally, strong people in the Saint Master Realm will choose to use Saint Crystals for cultivation.
Therefore, there are not many Saint Crystals on the market.
Even if the Phoenix Spirit Empire has a lot of Saint Crystals stored, it can never replace all the Phoenix Coins.
In the original thought of Prince Zhao Yan, everything in the world cannot defeat strength. As long as you are strong enough, no one can shake you. But now it seems that the so-called strength is not worth mentioning compared to strategy.
Even a Saint Emperor cannot make the Phoenix Spirit Empire collapse.
But wisdom can.
Thinking of this, he felt a sense of awe for Qin Tian. At the same time, his eyes were filled with a strong sense of awe. The current plan was too terrible.
Of course, Qin Tian's plan could be successfully implemented, thanks to the fact that Daoling Realm had initially established a currency system. If it were Taixu Realm, his trick would not work.
In the next few days, under Qin Tian's order, they exchanged all the Phoenix coins in their hands for Saint Crystals.
Then they sent a message to the major forces, asking them to also exchange Phoenix coins for Saint Crystals.
After many cooperations, they had great trust in Qin Tian, the mysterious mastermind behind the scenes, so the major forces contacted the Crystal Company one after another and exchanged the stored Phoenix coins for Saint Crystals and brought them back to the family.
When they completed the exchange, there were not many Saint Crystals left in the Crystal Companies in various places.
At this time, the second step of the plan began.
Then, a rumor spread in the Fengling Empire that the reserves of Saint Crystal Mine were seriously insufficient, and Phoenix Coins could no longer be exchanged for Saint Crystals.
As soon as this rumor came out.
Whether you believe it or not, everyone who had Saint Coins on their bodies chose to exchange them for Saint Crystals.
In less than two days, Crystal Companies in various places could not produce a single Saint Crystal, and had to choose to stop exchanging.
Then, under the instigation of some people, the people began to panic, and the situation of only Crystal Companies appeared.
On this day, the shops under the command of major forces changed their rules and no longer accepted Phoenix Coin transactions, only Saint Crystals.
Then a greater panic appeared.
As Qin Tian expected, those who had worked for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years found that the Phoenix Coins they had earned over the years had become waste and could not be used, and they had great resentment in their hearts.
The emotionally excited even began to attack Crystal Companies and the Empire Department.
In just a few days, a huge turbulence appeared in the Fengling Empire.
At this time, what Qin Tian could not have imagined was that those hidden sects actually jumped out and began to agitate the emotions of the people.
At this time.
Qin Tian chose to purchase Feng coins at a low price, and at the same time sent a message to the major forces, asking them to purchase at a low price.
Because Fengling Empire would not watch the chaos continue, it would take measures to save the market, and the only way to save the market was to let Jingsi reopen the exchange.
Originally, the exchange rate between Feng coins and Saint crystals was one hundred to one.
But now, a piece of Saint crystal can easily receive tens of thousands of Feng coins and tens of thousands of Feng coins.
It can only be said that the risk resistance of Feng coins is too weak, and it is so easy to defeat it.
In order to allow these major forces to advance and retreat with him, Qin Tian sent them a detailed description and speculation about the empire's rescue of the market, otherwise, they might not be at ease to purchase Feng coins.
Sure enough, with Qin Tian's detailed description, the major forces all bought Feng coins at a crazy bottom price.
Then seven days later.
The major crystal companies reopened the exchange of Saint crystals.
Then, Qin Tian's people and the people of the major forces rushed to exchange the Saint crystals.
The holy crystals that Fengling Empire sent to the major crystal companies were just a drop in the bucket. In less than a day, they were exchanged out again.
Not only did the chaos not get resolved, but it caused even greater chaos.
In desperation, Fengling Empire could only choose to frantically allocate holy crystals to the major crystal companies.
But in the end, the ones who benefited were Qin Tian and the major forces that joined forces with them. (To be continued)
