Chapter 657: Congratulations
According to the monetary system of the Far East, paper money was used instead of traditional silver coins, and paper money could be exchanged for an equivalent amount of silver coins at any time at a bank. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the so-called gold standard, after all, people have not been exposed to paper money for a long time, and the financial system has not yet been fully formed.
In this case, there is no soil for the survival of the fiat currency system, which is a gradual process, and paper money is mainly in small amounts.
This is for the daily circulation and exchange of money, but more than 10,000 silver coins exist in the form of checks, and the checks here are different from the bank checks of the era when Lin Ye was active, and the checks circulating in the Far East are actually large banknotes, but they need to be signed.
Now, at Lin Ye's suggestion, Fante put a stack of checks on the table, a total of one hundred, that is, a million silver coins.
"A million silver coins, but we can't get that much cash out of our casino, and my lord, what do you mean by that?"
Shata was stunned, even if he was sluggish, he could see that the young duke was not good, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
"It doesn't matter if you don't have money, can't you just take out your casino to gamble? What? President Shata, you can't refuse customers when you open your door for business, right?"
Lin Ye sat in his position and tapped on the gambling table slowly, and the casino employees all looked at the pile of checks in surprise, they had been working for two months.
I have also seen a lot of the world in the casino, and I have seen rich businessmen and high-rollers from all over the world, and there are many who have spent a lot of money and lost to ruin.
Being able to bet 1,000 silver coins at a time is already a lot of money, and you must know that the average monthly salary in the Far East is only about 200 silver coins.
And this is the result of a large increase without causing inflation, and a few years ago wages were only twenty silver coins.
But Lin Ye took out a million silver coins at one time, although these silver coins are in the form of paper checks, not boxes of silver coins piled up, but the light and fluttering texture makes people feel as heavy as a thousand pounds, after all, everyone knows that these checks can be redeemed for silver coins.
This has been confirmed in various parts of the mainland a few years ago, when the Far Eastern Bank was founded, all businessmen and ordinary people were allowed to visit the vault, and the gold and silver coins piled up in the vault were piled up in huge warehouses, which could make people's eyes stare out alive.
What's more, there are several heavy metal mines in the Far East, and a large number of gold and silver mines are transported to the foundry every month, and after smelting, they are compressed into blocks by molds and sealed, and they do not need to be circulated in the market.
"Oh my God, is there a check for a million silver coins, and it just puts it on the table, and the table won't be crushed by the force?"
"How can a check crush the table? But once you take out such a handwritten check without blinking a brow, it's only the Duke, right?
"But isn't he against gambling, my lord, and why does he sit at the table himself to gamble? What is the situation?"
The employees of the casino lowered their voices and talked a lot, all of them watching in amazement as the situation unfolded, it had reached this level that they could not participate in.
"This ...... This one...... My lord, I'm going to close the casino and move out of Dawn, so don't you?"
Shata realized the seriousness of the problem and hurriedly waved his hand, he gritted his teeth and made plans to close the casino.
As long as he gets through this pass, he will be able to make a comeback sooner or later, and now he doesn't dare to have any competition with this soul figure of the Far East.
"No, since you have opened a casino, you have to gamble to the end, you are the manager of the casino, right? You roll the dice, remember, I bought big." ”
Lin Ye pointed to the dice cup on the gambling table, and motioned to the casino manager who was trembling on thin ice next to him, he didn't have the patience to seek Shata's opinion.
"I?this, my lord, I, Master Shata, I ......" The casino manager originally thought that there was nothing wrong with him here, but he was shouted by Lin Ye.
His legs trembled suddenly, and he didn't know what to do at all, he looked at the young duke, and then at his master, Shata, and was in a dilemma.
"If you want you to come, you can come, what nonsense is the pestle there, hurry up!" Crouff followed Lin Ye to fight in the south and north for more than half a year.
He was much calmer than everyone else in the room, and scolded the casino manager, although he didn't quite understand Lin Ye's intentions.
But after so many tough battles, he understood one thing, that is, the orders given by the Duke did not need to be questioned.
Buried in the head, for which how many times they have survived in adversity, the casino manager finally took the dice cup under his scolding.
"But, but this dice cup, dice cup, or go get another one, you go and get a new one, remember, you must go and get a new one. ”
The casino manager touched the dice cup, and suddenly his face changed, and he immediately turned around and motioned for a casino employee to change the cup, and he noticed that it didn't feel right.
It's okay to use other dice cups to cover those who don't know how to do it, but let him use the dice cups that move his hands and feet to deceive the emperor of the Far East.
He didn't dare to lend him ten guts, since he couldn't escape, at least he had to change to a normal dice cup, otherwise he would have to show his stuffing.
"No, I think this dice cup is quite pleasing to the eye, so I'll use this, no need to change it, let's get started." Lin Ye squinted at the manager's trembling hands.
This made the manager's legs go weak and almost didn't sit on the ground, and Shata also realized the manager's worries, and his face became more and more pale.
"Then adults, you buy small, today's luck in buying small is very smooth, and the person who buys big has suffered a lot of losses today, and it is not very smooth......"
The manager wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, barely keeping himself calm and not falling, but he still couldn't help but tremble.
"No, in the Far East, Duke Ben is the biggest, so I have to buy big, hurry up and start, don't grind anymore. ”
Lin Ye was a little impatient and waved his hand to urge, and Kluff also threatened in front of the manager, which made the latter dare not breathe.
After handing Shata a desperate look, the manager finally gritted his teeth and shook the dice cup.
The arena fell into a deathly silence, only the sound of the dice swaying, except for Lin Ye knocking his fingers to calm down, everyone held their breath, their hearts were raised to their throats, even if it was Crouff, he looked at Lin Ye from time to time, trying to see a clue from his eyes.
But in vain, until the manager put the dice cup down and opened it with a trembling voice.
"223, is it small? Congratulations, President Shata, for winning a million silver coins in such a short period of time. ”
Lin Ye smiled and pushed out the thick stack of checks.
