Chapter 7: A Brief Return and Night
(Chapter 3 to, ask for collection and ask for votes!!) )
Liu Qi rejected the so-called maid, and sat in his room while rubbing his stomach while looking at the sheepskin money bag in front of him with a little frown.
"Hey, there is always a feeling that I have been pitted by TV and movies..."Opening the sheepskin money bag and looking at the pile of silver in it, Liu Qi felt his eyebrows twitch for a while.
The pile of silver pieces that Goodel took out are not silver coins, and their appearance and weight are not the heavy Western silver coins that Liu Qi imagined as Yuan Datou or the movie did.
Well, how to put it, it is about the size of a dollar coin of the Celestial Empire, and the surface is a relief of a city, and there are several letters, the same as ordinary silver coins. But this thickness is only a little bit, about the same thickness as a piece of paper, and the color is dull, no wonder Liu Qi feels that he has been fooled by movies and TV series, which is too far from the bright and heavy Yuan Datou and silver coins in his imagination.
According to his estimates, a piece of silver is probably less than a dime in the Celestial Empire, and the top of the sky is a few grams, according to a gram of silver 2~3 yuan, a hundred silver coins are sold for a few hundred yuan, and it is not a problem to sell it for a few hundred yuan according to a gram of silver.
And Liu Qi learned from Gutel's mouth that this silver piece he called the dinar was the standard currency of the current Roman city-state, and there was a gold coin unit called Ori on top, and a copper coin unit called Ace below, well, a rather heavy copper coin unit.
Liu Qi gave up directly after seeing the real thing and weighing it, a copper coin is almost half a catty, although there are auxiliary currencies such as small copper coins, but compared to high-value and easy-to-sell gold and silver coins, bronze copper coins are too difficult to sell, so Liu Qi did not accept this thing for the time being.
Originally, Liu Qi planned to exchange it for gold coins, after all, the exchange rate here was exaggerated, and Gu Gutel said that twenty-five silver pieces can only be exchanged for one gold coin without silver coins. However, considering that in reality, the exchange rate of gold and silver is at least 200:1, so it is still possible to make a lot of money by exchanging silver coins for gold coins. But Gurtel now had no gold coins on hand to exchange, after all, he was only a steward of an estate, and there was no need for the capital to use the luxury of gold coins, and it was good to use copper and silver coins.
"Jingle Bell..."
"Is it a pound heavy, forget it, go back and see first... Quit! Liu Qi shook the sheepskin money bag a few times, put it firmly into his backpack, and then picked up the backpack and chose to quit.

4th floor in the rental house
Liu Qi's room was dark, the windows and doors were tightly closed, and there was hardly any luster in the room, only the faint luster of the laptop placed on the table shone on the whole room.
Well, Liu Qi was also worried about confidentiality and security, after all, the rental house in the urban village is not very safe, and it is not uncommon for thieves to appear, but now there are no conditions, I can't even eat, and there is money to find a safe place there... However, Liu Qi thought about it for a while and found that as long as he kept quiet in this rental house, the 'neighbors' who had not met a few times in the other two months would basically not notice this room, and the landlord would only come and knock on the door when he was about to pay the rent and utility bills or had something, and he could ignore it the rest of the time.
Thinking about it this way, as long as you are dissatisfied with the shouting of the world, the safety problem is not big in the short term... On the contrary, it is the window, which may be seen by the person on the other side, and the sudden disappearance of the hole is even bigger.
So... It is inevitable to draw the curtains in broad daylight!
Brush -
Liu Qi appeared in front of the computer with a backpack on his back.
"Well, I'll see... It's only been a little over an hour, and it's really a 10:1 ratio..."
Liu Qi looked down at the time in the lower right corner of the computer for the first time, and found that it was not yet 11 o'clock, you must know that he entered on time at half past 9 o'clock, and he has been in the Imperial Age shijie for at least 11 hours, and now it depends on the situation that the time ratio of this game shijie and Wen Yating shijie is about the same...
"Well, it's just that the time ratio of the two shijies is the same, and the rest of the shijie don't know... Forget it, don't think about these problems, or calculate the temporary benefits this time..."
Liu Qi put down his backpack, took out the sheepskin money bag, and began to calculate.
He has limited time, at most he will come back to see if there is any problem, and he will have to re-enter in ten minutes, and it seems that the coins can also be brought back.
"A hundred silver coins... The silver content is estimated to be no more than 80%, well, but it's a few hundred dollars... Forget it, let's exchange it for gold coins, I just don't know how heavy the gold coins are..."
Liu Qi looked at the silver pieces brought back in his hand, carefully scraped a few silver coins with a knife, and confirmed that this was indeed a silver coin, not a counterfeit coin, and after temporarily relieving his mind, even if he didn't gain anything from going to the so-called Bella City next (this is unlikely), it was enough.
However, the human heart is inherently unpredictable, and after easily exchanging three packs of salt for a hundred times the profit, the idea of making a big profit intensified in Liu Qi's mind.
"Gold coins, gold coins..."
Liu Qi looked at the silver coins in his hand and muttered to himself.
Compared with the more valuable gold, is it possible to give up these pieces of silver on hand for a while, and if you sell them, the price of gold is higher....
Liu Qi's brain is obviously starting to heat up a little, which is not a good phenomenon.
………………………
Another shijie, night
It was pitch black inside the manor, and no one said anything except for the two fires at the doorway and the guards who checked the fence with torches every hour or two.
In the Bronze Age, apparently there was no such thing as nightlife in this manor.
However, in one of the several stone houses in the manor, Gutel could not sleep all night.
"Suna, look, this is the white salt that I just bought from that merchant!"
After entertaining Liu Qi and arranging a place for him to stay, Gutel, who had returned to his house, looked at his beautiful wife, and showed off under the oil lamp with a bag of iodized salt that had been opened.
Suna is a beautiful woman who is very in line with modern aesthetics.
With long blond hair, a pair of linen robes that can't hide the plump and towering peaks, a slender waist, high hips, and a figure that is not worse than that of modern model stars. Coupled with her delicate and smooth snow-white skin and pretty appearance, she is definitely a first-class beauty in modern times. Even in the dim light of the oil lamp, it did not diminish her charm and beauty in the slightest, well, as could be seen from the drunken expression of Goodel opposite her, it was not for nothing that a woman conquered a man.
"Hey, really! It's so fine and so white, it's better than the most haode salt I've ever seen,... Well, the taste is also haode, and there is no trace of bitterness! ”
Suna was going to hide her mouth and smile when she saw her husband's behavior like this, but when she looked at the things in his hand, Suna was surprised, and quickly asked her husband to put it on the wooden table, leaned over to observe, and even tried it.
"How? This white salt is worth as much as those silver coins! And I'm going to ask Quinta to bring a bag of this white salt to the family tomorrow..., so maybe we won't have to stay in this little manor any longer. ”
Goodel looked at his wife's surprised look and said triumphantly, well, like a male peacock showing off his tail in front of a female peacock.
But from his tone, it seemed that there was another reason why he had stayed in this manor and became a steward.
"Yes, it's definitely worth it, you did earn it this time!"
Suna rolled her eyes very beautifully to her husband, but I have to admit that my husband did earn it in this transaction. You know, even when she lived in Beira City, Suna had never seen such snow-white white salt, not even the slightest peculiar smell, and the price was not much higher than the sea salt and rock salt brought by those caravans.
Then the value of this white salt is obviously quite high, and the husband can be said to have earned it this time.
"Haha, Suna..."
Guttel, who was affirmed by his wife, smiled and hugged his wife, feeling the fiery feeling coming from his wife's body, his heart was full of pride, for him, the recognition of a beautiful wife was the most important thing.
Suna felt Gutel's embrace and looked at him with silky eyes.
Without a word, the moans of men and women began to sound throughout the stone house, accompanied by the lifting of linen robes and the sound of men and women gasping.
Coincidentally, this kind of sound began to be heard in several other stone houses, and it was obvious that the little boss of the manor was paying his wife.
………………………………
At this time, Liu Qi, who was staying in another stone house, had just finished his experiment in the real shijie rental house, and had just returned to the place where he was staying tonight, and was listening to all kinds of obscene/obscene voices coming from several houses not far away. That's it.
"TMD, this Bronze Age house is too soundproof."
Liu Qi looked at the darkness outside, knowing that in this primitive society, it is estimated that the entertainment of ordinary people at night is not only to create people, but... Is this voice a little louder, so if you are a guest, Liu Qi could only be speechless for a while and then complained about the sound insulation problem.
But complaining is complaining, and it is impossible for Liu Qi to go out and say to those people please be quiet, so he can only sleep alone (who made you refuse the woman sent to the door by others before), but fortunately, after two hours, these voices finally ended.
Liu Qi didn't know that his physical fitness had become more and more BT, you know, the nearest house was also twenty or thirty meters away from him, and after fastening the two-story doors and windows, he could still clearly feel these sounds, which is not something that ordinary people can do, and it is similar to those who have a keen sense of congenital feeling or have been deliberately exercised the day after tomorrow. Moreover, he didn't notice that after only one day, his physique seemed to be growing, but because the increase was not too large, and the previous physical changes were too sudden and too big, this small increase was not noticed by Liu Qi.
Well, of course, there is also the reason that Liu Qi is busy exploring the game shijie and the time is too short.
Obviously, after the day before yesterday, after his body was changed by a laptop leak click, Liu Qi himself did not realize that his body was completely different and beyond his imagination.
However, Liu Qi has no choice, he knows that he must have some secrets after the sudden change in his body, but unfortunately, if he doesn't want to become a guinea pig in the laboratory, he can't tell the changes in his body truthfully to the doctors in the hospital, plus his own shyness, he can only continue to delay like this.
It wasn't until the moon rose in mid-air and the sound disappeared that Liu Qi fell asleep in a daze.
