Chapter 56: World-Changing Magic (Part II)
"It's done. Even though she had made countless calculations, when the starry sky bridge to the whole world was built, the girl still couldn't hide her happy expression.
Ulysses pressed his forehead, he couldn't figure out what it was. What were those that had spread out from that magic array? What was the "Starry Sky Bridge"? For him, what he saw now was far beyond the scope of his comprehension.
"What do you think will be the most profitable thing in the world?" Standing in the middle of all the starry bridges, the girl smiled and asked Ulysses, who was a little dazed.
She wanted him to know what an amazing job he had done for her, and what a change he could make to the world with the pure white orb he had sent.
"It should be jewelry, gold, antiques, precious magical equipment and books......" This is the answer that Ulysses can think of, and it should be the common sense of ordinary people in this world.
Of course, in fact, the strongest concept in this world is the treasure, but it is not something that ordinary people can use, and even if you have the qualifications to use it, it is just an ornament.
"You're right, jewelry, gold, antiques, and equipment are all valuable items, but their market is not large, and you can make a lot of money from these things, but you can never have the world's first wealth. "Even though she owns many, many of these things, the girl never uses them to make money, these are just things she uses to decorate.
"People who buy and sell these things to make money can get a city or even more wealth, but that's all they have to offer, it's hard to go any further. On this continent, there are many people who use these to make money, and there are equally many competitors, which is far from the most profitable method. β
Ulysses thought about it and thought that it was true, that the nobles who owned the gold mines would be rich, but that would be controlled by the state. Even if a private owner owns a gold mine, it needs to be processed and sold.
"In this world, there are only two ways to make money, two in different directions. The girl took out a small notebook with many things written down and began to prepare for what was to come, telling Ulysses the truth she had in her possession.
"The first is relatively simple, which is war, where a person with great power can conquer everything, gain everything, and even receive the wealth of the whole world into his treasury and become the supreme king. Only those who possess supreme power can go that far and unify the whole world. When you stand at the top of this world, all the wealth of the world belongs to you. β
"Hmm. Ulysses had to admit that if someone conquered the whole world, then the wealth of the whole world would naturally belong to that person. In a world that acknowledges the supremacy of power, the strongest king is naturally entitled to everything.
In fact, if the undead monarch three hundred years ago had only wanted this world, he would have done it a long time ago. Even the Church of the Most High God had to confess his crown.
The power above all else, always with the highest privileges. When the power of one person can destroy the world, the world can only give in to that person.
"Most of the time, though, the first scenario is just an ideal. There are many powerful forces and lives in this world, from ancient times to modern times, and there is only one king who has truly completed this great cause. β
"After the death of that king, there were several similar situations in later times, but there was no more king who unified the whole world. In fact, in this land under our feet, the gods and witches known as the Twin Sons of Destiny are also qualified to become the rulers of the continent in their time. β
"Moreover, now that the Supreme God Cult has almost controlled this world, unless the Supreme God Sect is destroyed, it will be difficult to give birth to the king of the continent. The power of the Cult of the Supreme God is far stronger than you know. β
"Moreover, simple conquest will also produce a lot of sequelae, and it is not just the strongest strength that can do that kind of thing. β
Ulysses also knew some legends about the king who conquered the world, and remembered that after the death of the king, the empire immediately fell apart. For there is no one who has the bearing, strength and courage of the king of heroes, and who rules the whole world.
"The second approach is more complex, but more durable. That is, to control the transaction. β
"Control, trade?" Ulysses looked at the girl across from him in confusion, and the concept of "trade" was limited to the extent that he used money to buy bread. How to control this kind of thing. Do you want him not to buy bread?
"All the wealth in this world exists because of transactions. If there is no transaction per se, then wealth is meaningless. On a tropical island full of fruits, people don't spend money to buy fruit, and in the snowy north, people don't think there's any point in magically preserved ice cubes. β
"However, if it is the other way around, then there is a possibility of a transaction. People on tropical islands will want ice, people on the snowy lands of the north will love fruits, and the merchants who will trade the difference in the middle will be the guides. β
"Ah, you sell fruit and ice?" Ulysses understood, could it be that the girl was doing the kind of trade that sold ice to tropical islands and fruits to ice and snow territories?
"Ahem, ahem, what nonsense are you talking about!" Hearing Ulysses' naΓ―ve conjecture, the girl almost shook her hand and dropped the little notebook in her hand to the ground.
What a joke about the world, how could she, who inherited the "Golden Rule" talent inherited from her family, need to sell those things herself. She has an extraordinary perception of all treasures, and she can find valuable items just by walking around.
With this ability, the person who holds the "Golden Rule" will not lack wealth at all, and it will be easy for her to amass a fortune of more than a million gold coins.
However, her goal is not so simple, what she wants to be is the real king. Those who are qualified to open the "Treasury of Babylon", the family's inheritance, and obtain the key to the legendary door that gathers all the treasures of the world.
The treasure house representing the power of "wealth" in the "Treasury of Babylon", which is divided into three, is her greatest dream in life.
