Chapter 426: Farewell to the Old Times (7)

As a knight with the belief of "keeping his oath", the conditions he puts forward are usually very harsh and there is room for it. 【Reading.com】

10 minutes and all nobles are the qualifiers, the latter is incomplete. Eyal naturally asked, "I'll have at least a little time." ”

Chen Yi chuckled and patted the frosted vault lid with his hand, as if it would open at any moment.

The Lord Priest had no choice but to ring the temple bell to announce something very important. It also transmits information to the Water Dragon Temple, where the high priest can see everything within the temple through a pool of turquoise water.

A few minutes later, the bell rang, which made the whole inhabitants tremble, and all the knights and nobles stood up in discomfort.

Chen Yi was still sitting on the ground, looking up at the patterns on the dome.

The church used to hide the gold looks very strong, and the columns built of pure stone do not know how much labor is required. It can be seen that it was built very early, and it was also built with defense in mind, and the heavy iron-clad wooden door is an example, no matter what time it was, it was a luxury on the western continent. Perhaps when Mara City was not prosperous enough, the chapel was tasked with accommodating offerings, and it was only when the offerings became more and more indicated, from copper coins to snails or even metal ingots, that the priests built the current basement.

"It's 10 minutes." Yinmori clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Only 20 Temple Knights have gathered. ”

"Pull it away."

The three magic knights worked together to wield their powers, and the iron box made a tooth-sore sound. When the origin energy of the three Divine Knights converged, the ordinary blessings of the High Priest were immediately destroyed.

Yinsen Shen lifted up the top of the money storage room, which took up three-quarters of the church. The four-meter-deep chamber is divided into three parts. In the middle are the currencies of various precious metals, such as snails, gold coins, and silver coins, which are piled up into three small hills; On the left are various ingots of precious metals, in addition to white platinum and silver, yellow gold, there are steel ingots and another metal ingot.

The space on the right is the widest, with wooden chests and a large number of weapons inside.

"Pry the box open."

Iyar stopped and said, "No, it's just some weapons." ”

Chen Yi Nunu mouthed, Yin Sen Yong immediately jumped down and pried open all the wooden boxes.

Sure enough, they are all weapons, the long ones are 3 meters, and the short ones are only an inch. It is estimated that it is also the so-called war money.

"Your Excellency, the nobles in the city, I have brought them all as much as possible." The chief priest was afraid that Chen Yi would really do it, so he whispered: "The money in it is prepared for the temple war." As long as you move, the Water Dragon Temple will know. If you turn around and walk away now, we should not know about it. ”

Chen Yi ignored him, but ordered: "Call Jin Doona in, the money in it is a little bit, load it and send it away."

Iyar shouted in hatred: "Your Excellency! ”

"Is the speaker of the city here?"

The chief priest was silent, and the little priest behind him touched his head and said, "I haven't found it." ”

"Isamu Ginmori, find the next vault.

The next treasury is from a great nobleman's family, not the treasury of Marat.

The nobles all thought of a possibility, and the sweat came down in an instant.

This is simply a bandit!

The chief priest was very suspicious that the three of them were going to grab two strokes and run.

If all the nobles of Mara City were to be looted, it would be a lot of money.

It's a complete ruin of reputation.

It didn't take long for Jin Doona to move the things inside with a group of people. Counting on the one hand, pursing his lips and smiling on the other.

Chen Yi leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm just calculating, if I play platinum jewelry, how many snail shells can be beaten."

"That's a lot, one and a half taels."

Jin Douna scratched her ears and calculated: "That's enough for a belt, I think there are more than 10,000 snail shells, too many, I can't use them all." ”

"It's not enough."

Jin Doona asked curiously, "How to use it?" ”

"Make reserves for precious metals and issue currency." Chen Yi said quietly.

"In the Western Continent?"

"Of course not, in China."

"Huh?"

Chen Yi nodded lightly.

13,000 snail shells, weighing more than 6,500 catties, get 3 tons of platinum. In addition, there are more than 1,000 platinum ingots, all of which are three kilograms of standard, and three tons of platinum are obtained. Together with the gold coins and bars with a total weight of about 3 tons, the precious metal earned this time was about 12 tons. In Jiangning, excluding the precious metals he sold in the early stage, the accumulated inventory of precious metals exceeded 00 tons, which is 3 times this figure.

Chen Yi guessed that if the vaults of Mara City and several big aristocratic families were looted, his precious metal assets would exceed the 100-ton mark.

This meant that, with these precious metals alone, he was able to issue a currency of good credit that could be freely exchanged for yellow or platinum.

This is also the purest attribute possessed by the earliest currencies.

Freely exchange the properties of gold!

For hundreds of years, thousands of years, before the Americans relied on their dominant position to end the Bretton Woods system, the world's currency should have been pegged to precious metals – no matter which of the neighbors' letters, they were not as reputable as precious metals.

Gold is an honest metal.

And the state, on the other hand, is definitely a dishonest monster. If you give the state power, it will use that power to the extreme - any possible side-rubbing, it will be used after hesitation or no hesitation, as long as it needs to.

Thus, when the Bretton Woods system, in which the dollar was pegged to gold, collapsed in 1973, currencies were really only about national credibility, not precious metals.

What follows is natural, irreversible inflation.

Chen Yi does not have the luxury of hoping to change the world, but he has an opportunity to build a foundation of money that can collect seigniorage on its own, a foundation that returns to the era of honest money 30 years ago.

100 tonnes of gold is worth more than $25 billion, while 100 tonnes of platinum is worth more. If it is only distributed in Jiangning, it is more than enough.

The only thing to consider is how to concoct a perfect reason and story to get the central government to turn a blind eye.

"Chen Yi, it's done." Kim Doona tickled softly in his ear.

Chen Yi woke up, let out an embarrassed "oh", and asked, "All moved away?" ”

"Copper is too heavy."

There is a lot of copper left at the scene.

Chen Yi smiled and said to the main priest: "You save it first." Isamu Ginmori, have you found the next one? ”

"Found it."

"Let's go." Chen Yi got up and said to Jin Doona: "The armored car will be escorted back to Shuizhai and the car will be changed." Yinsen Shen, you go back with you. ”

"Yes." Silver Mori Shen looked around at the several temple knights in front of him with leopard eyes, and they all naturally gave up their positions because of the threat of the reputation of the magic knights.

Yinsen bravely climbed on the earth dragon and took the lead in opening the way.

A local nobleman asked urgently, "Your Excellency Chen Yi, what exactly do you want to do?" ”

"You're not qualified to talk to me, come to your Speaker."

Iyar waved his hand and sent the nobles out, letting Chen Yi and the others leave.

The second-most metal vault found by Isamu Gin Mori belonged to the family of the Speaker of the Senate Gazayah. The cave carved out of the stone mountain, the outside is just made of stainless steel iron gate, although there are also a few traces of blessings, but it is far from reaching the level of the high priest. Isamu Gin Mori used his magic to "break the realm" and immediately cleared the obstacles.

The door opens.

Another piece of golden light.

Yinmori Yong went in and walked around, and came back and said, "There are more metal ingots than those in the temple, but there is less money." ”

"Okay." Chen Yizi didn't go in to carry it, so he sat at the door and said, "Wait." ”

Isamu Gin Mori thought he was waiting for the car to come back, but after waiting for a long time, it was Gasaya who came back first.

He couldn't help but come back, his own vault was about to be broken, and that was more important than his life.

"Divine Knight Chen Yi?"

"Huh?"

Gasaya choked and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to see me?" ”

Chen Yi pointed to the metal ingots inside and said with a smile: "You want to see them, right?" ”

Gasaya barely smiled and said, "Your Excellency the Divine Knight, you have something to order." ”

"I just waited for the car to come, and then I loaded the gold and left. If you want to turn against Hangzhou, look for Yin Mori Yong. ”

"How dare I fight against the Divine Knight." Gasaya pouted.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "Then it's not done." ”

He sat still and didn't move.

After a while, the roar of the armored car came, and Gasaya's face changed greatly, and he couldn't help but say: "Your Excellency the Divine Knight, the warriors of Mara City are all fighting before the Temple War, and you are robbing our belongings at this time......

"I've robbed all of the temple, what about yours." Chen Yi said with horizontal eyebrows.

Gasaye wanted to kill Chen Yi, but the situation was stronger than people, he stuck his neck, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Your Excellency, if you have any orders, just say it." ”

"Let's go in and talk." Chen Yi suddenly stretched out his hand.

Gasaya followed the grotto of the Black Hole Cave in a daze.

In the faint light, platinum and gold shimmered greedily.

Gasaye looked at them wistfully, as if to remember their shapes and smell them. This money was not only obtained by him, but also by his legitimate business...... It's so unfair to be snatched away from them all now!

"Do you want them back?" Chen Yi asked Gasaye.

"I ......"

"You want you to get me twice as much precious metal, and that's it." Chen Yi took out a piece of platinum and a piece of gold brick, put it in front of Gasaye, and said, "I want 30 tons." ”

Gasaya laughed and shook his sleeves: "You skinned me, and I couldn't get so many snail shells." ”

"You can get it from other nobles, don't you." Chen Yi smiled easily and sat on the pile of gold bricks.

Gasayah thought only for a moment, then said, "You are tantamount to a tax package." Tax-included, too ugly. ”

"If you don't, then I'll have to empty the contents of the library." Chen Yi patted and stood up, walked to the door, and turned back and said, "Let the family go out as soon as possible, I am going to move out of your house." ”

"What?"

"I've got to find 30 tons of metal."

Walking out of the dark grotto, the returning silver forest Shen made Gasaya dizzy again. The three Divine Knights standing in front of them and hearing about it were really two different things.

The disordered origin energy alone can make people eat a pot.

"1 Speaker, what do you say?"

Gasaye's heart is a celestial station, just like Ultraman having an affair, rolling the earth and the water flowing into a river.

That's it, he only had one way to go, nodded, and said, "Okay." ”

"β€”Words are certain." Chen Yi winked, and the fresh student who had just been replaced rushed into the grotto.

Tons of gold, no one has ever seen it.

"Hey, why do you still take it?" Gasaya wanted to stop but didn't teach him, like Ultraman who had been stripped naked, looking for a condom left and right.

Chen Yi pressed his shoulder and whispered in his ear: "When you get the tax package, it will naturally fill in your account......"

Gasaye's lips trembled and he was speechless.

It's all angry.

You took all my money, and I want me to give you taxes.

But Gasayh also understood that if he didn't have the name of Xijiang Walled City, he wouldn't be able to get a dime back.

"Hide your vaults, and we'll come back the next day." Chen Yi squeezed his eyes at Gasaya and jumped on the raptor.

At this time, Sir Silva in the car was gone.

Back in the Xijiang Walled City, Bao Yu Weichao and others were all in the vault, looking at the platinum and gold in a daze.

In normal times, they can also get tens of thousands of snail shells every month, which are exchanged for Xijiang's own money - bad money drives good money, although the credit of Xijiang Shuizhai is low, but as long as their money enters the market, it will flow 100%. The snail shells that were exchanged for were also piled up in this vault.

But there have never been so many precious metals in the vault.

"Enough of it?" Chen Yi plating in through the door.

"Enough of it."

"Enough of it."

A group of people laughed silly.

"I have a lot of use for these precious metals. Don't look at it. ”

Seeing Chen Yi looking at the joke with kindness, Li Feng smiled boldly: "Lord, we just said that there are few good things on this side of Xijiang, and the money can't be spent. On the other side of the earth, the cost is a bit bigger. I don't know, can I exchange the points on the Xijiang side into something and bring it back. ”

"Exchange for what?"

Yu Lei hurriedly said: "The fur is very good, I want to get a snow bear skin and go back to make a mattress." ”

"Oh? Whom is honored? ”

Yu Lei touched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "Make one for my parents, and make one for my grandmother." ”

"That's ...... It's quite filial. Chen Yi looked at Yu Lei seriously for two minutes, and said, "There are no snow bears on the earth, you know, right?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Know. ”

"But ......" Chen Yi changed his words and said, "I will allow you to bring a snow bear skin back, you have to find someone to make it unrecognizable, can you do it?" ”

"Yes."

"Deduct your points for two months."

The points are the salaries they use in the Western Continent, and they do not match the renminbi issued by the earth, which is equivalent to their families, or a kind of savings.

Yu Lei blinked a few times, but in the end, he didn't understand whether he had earned or lost.

Chen Yi turned to Jin Douna and said, "Find someone to make a rule, and if you want to exchange points for materials in the future, what is not allowed is to prohibit the rules, and only the materials that have been approved by the Diamond Committee can be brought back to Earth." Specifically, which materials are allowed to be brought back, you draw up a list, not too many types, and give the point exchange ratio. ”

"Yes."

"Cadets who have won medals, according to the different levels of medals, will be given priority in redemption, or even discounts." Chen Yi once again increased the benefits of medal winners, to a certain extent, in addition to high-level positions, medals are more popular than positions.

Yu Lei and Li Feng agreed with this, they are both people who hold the position of the team, and the medal is basically only a way to fight, and increasing the benefits of the medal is also conducive to their leadership of the team.

It was inconvenient for others to object, and Yu Weichao then began to report on natural rubber.

The area of wild rubber forests has now expanded to 100,000 hectares, twice as many as before, and equivalent to one-sixth of China's natural rubber plantation.

Chen Yi didn't care about the specific production process, but asked, "How is the current output?" ”

"100,000 tons a year, barely reaching, the number of slaves we use has exceeded 30,000, and we can't control more."

"Learn how Westerners used to make plantations." Chen Yi also didn't care about slaves, but he was thinking about the price changes of natural rubber in China. If the output reaches one-sixth of the domestic output, it means that the domestic rubber production has increased by one-sixth without anyone knowing, more than 15%, then according to the normal price law, it is possible to drop the price by 30%.

Short selling the world rubber?

Chen Yi was a little hesitant about this.

He's not afraid of short selling, he's afraid of other price factors at work.

The current world futures market does not belong to the Chinese.

"How much natural rubber is there now?"

"3,000 tons, the equipment we installed, is still a bit rusty."

"Where's the latex?"

"Less than 10,000 tons."

"Load it all up, I'll take it."

Chen Yi didn't expect them to process 100,000 tons of natural rubber, which had to be brought back to other factories, but fortunately, there are factories in China that collect and process materials, and they don't have the slightest curiosity about the source of raw materials.

Seeing that they were almost done, Kim Doona handed him the account and asked, "Why didn't we loot all the precious metals in Mara City?" The Speaker had 10 tons of precious metals in his house, no less than that of the temple, and the treasury of the city of Marat. ”

"The treasury of Mara City is not the third place where precious metals gather, not even the fourth." Chen Yixiao asked Yin Sen Yong and said, "Really? ”

Yinsen said bravely and seriously: "The treasury of Mara City must not be ranked in the top five, in the aristocratic city-state system, the city-state is the poorest, if there is money, it will be divided among the nobles." ”

"Then don't rob other nobles?"

"If it is all over, the problem of Mara City will be our problem." Chen Yi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't worry, there is a ring road, unless they go to heaven and earth, people can die, and gold and silver treasures can only wait for death." ”

"So you let their Speaker cover taxes?"

"Take your time." Chen Yi smiled like a repeat kidnapper of children.

"That'...... What about the temple? Kim Doona had to ask how big the future war would be in order to make a budget that wasn't full of holes.

Chen Yi replied preparedly: "The problem of the temple will be solved by Yinsen Shen." ”

At the same time, the chief priests of the Water Dragon Temple were also discussing the matter of the divine knight Yin Sen Shen.

As in most temples, the power of the temple is controlled by nine high priests, who work in a cabinet-like manner, with the chief priest having the right to meet the water dragon god alone, while the other priests only meet the water dragon god with everyone's consent.

At this moment, the usual silence of the chief high priest, while others were plunged into heated discussions.

Dispatch troops!

Dispatch the Wizard of Magic!

Dispatch the Priest and the Divine Knight!

Draw power from the Temple battlefield!

There were at least four options for them to choose from, but almost none of them actually delivered.

At such a tense moment of war, where to find three magic knights. That's the crux of the matter. They can't send out the magic knights who guard the temple.

On the other hand, even if you send three Divine Knights, or even four Divine Knights, there is no guarantee that you will win beautifully. If you hurt one person, you will lose a lot. This is not a war, and the loss of any one person is a pure loss.

At the most intense moment of their discussion, the chief priest spoke: "The Silver Mori family, there is a Silver Mori who has returned to the family and become a knight of divine arts. ”

"That's the Wooden Dragon Temple." The third-ranked High Priest whispered.

The chief high priest shook his head, but said, "Yinsen Lie, Yinsen Shen, Yinsen Yong, the Yinsen family suddenly has three magic knights, it's too much." ”

"Plus that Chen Yi, that's 4?"

"Recently left the Yinsen family, in addition to Yinsen Lie, Yinsen Shen and Yinsen Yong, there is also a person, Yinsen Jin."

The chief high priest made a two-finger wrapping motion, and a document appeared in the palm of his hand: "Look, they have at least 5 magic knights." ”

It's impossible to win!

The three high priests who were full of battle all shut up.

"Let's move on to the next topic." The fourth high priest is the presiding officer of the council.

"The temple of Namara City...... Don't tell them the results? ”

"No results." The chief priest closed his eyes, too lazy to say more.
