Chapter 47: Zhen Rich's Story

Zhen Youqian took Li Xiaoyin to the Xicheng Gate. The guards asked nothing and let them go.

Sure enough, having money means being willful!

This exception cannot be eliminated in any world.

After the two of them entered the city, they went directly to the largest money house in the store - "Zhen's Money House".

Here, Zhen Youqian arranged a room for Li Xiaoyin and invited him to the backyard for tea.

Zhen Youqian sat in the pavilion, took a sip of tea, and then pointed at Xiao Bailing who was dozing off the ground and asked:

"Brother Xiaoyin, where did your sleepy fish get the seedlings? The bones look pretty good."

Li Xiaoyin turned his eyes and said nonsense:

"This one was discovered from a cave in the East China Sea."

"I remember it was a near-shore island and reef, with many caves piled up with crystal-like stones below. In addition to this fish, there are also large octopus with a rock-like skin!"

Zhen Youqian's eyes shone with a gleam, and then he took a sip of tea without showing any expression.

He said lightly:

"I have seen this kind of sleepy fish in the market in Donghai City, but they are all male fish that retreated from the military camp and cannot give birth..."

Li Xiaoyin quipped:

"Brother, I'm a handler, don't think wrong."

Zhen Youqian laughed:

"Brother, you are too cautious. I didn't say I wanted to breed your sleepy fish!"

"I'm over 40 years old, and I have no children or children..."

Li Xiaoyin rolled his eyes and said:

"You don't want me to be your godson, do you? I won't do it!"

After hearing this, Zhen Youqian immediately sprayed out the tea that had just entered his mouth.

"Brother Xiaoyin, I have no other meaning. I just want to measure the size of your sleepy fish and then make it a suitable bell collar."

Li Xiaoyin sighed:

"No, brother, aren't we all going to the city? Then what do you need to do with bells?"

"You run such a big money house, so you don't have to worry about small things like me."

Zhen Youqian interrupted him, got up and touched the sleepy little Bailing, and his expression immediately became serious.

He said:

"Since everyone is a monk, I will no longer hide anything."

"Since late last summer, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth has suddenly surged, and many monsters near the sea have begun to go ashore to eat people, and Dinghai City has also suffered greatly."

...

Zhen Youqian began to tell a few strange things from the end of last autumn.

The city lord of Dinghai City has led his men to round up these monsters who came ashore to cause trouble many times, and he was also fortunate to participate.

However, after analyzing and studying the corpses of these monsters, Zhen Youqian discovered that the originally very ordinary animals did not only turn into monsters because of the sudden increase in spiritual energy, but the culprit was actually - evil energy!

After this discovery, Zhen Youqian began to regain his old career and became a casting smelter.

He added a special spiritual herb called "Spiritual Qingzhu" to the melted bronze slurry.

When this spiritual herb encounters evil spirit, it will be free from wind and last for a long time.

Finally, after many extremely complex processes such as making recipes, adjusting the proportion of spiritual herbs, making magic weapon molds, etc., the bronze bell was born!

(Of course, as for how much it costs to develop this thing, Zhen Youqian just smiled and said nothing.)

With his intelligence and wealth, he also received commendations from Dinghai City.

The city lord of Dinghai City said personally that from then on, every pet or mount in the city, including all kinds of mounts in the military camp, must be equipped with such bells.

The price of bells is priced by Zhen Youqian.

Considering the sufferings of sentient beings, he set the price of each bell for 500 rings!

Five hundred rings of money, what is this concept?

In the human world, spirit stones and other things are not circulated at all, and they are not allowed to be resold. All counties and cities use ring money, silver and gold.

The ring coins are made of bronze mixed with white copper, and are divided into three types: "Dingyi", "Dingshi" and "Dingbai".

Each type is a decimal exchange method, for example, one or two silver coins can be exchanged for ten 'Dingbai'.

"Dingyi" is a light and light copper coin that is easy to carry, usually called a ring coin.

"Dingshi" is slightly larger than the Yiliqian type, while "Dingbai" is even bigger.

These ring money are made according to the theory of "the sky is round and the place", so the shape is round on the outside and square on the inside, making it easier to be stringed into a ring and is conducive to carrying.

As Li Xiaoyin listened, he suddenly became confused:

"This kind of ring money sounds like the copper plate used in ancient times... Could it be the culture brought by other time travelers!"

But next, what Zhen Youqian took out surprised him even more:

He took out a piece of red square paper made of soft girl coins!!!

"Damn, there is such a thing in this world!"

Li Xiaoyin was so shocked that he couldn't stop his ears and his eyes were staring.

Zhen Youqian sighed:

"The person who created these currencies is my mentor - the money-making master. He not only created ring money during his lifetime, but also made a failed currency, which is the one in my hands."

Li Xiaoyin tentatively said:

"Brother Zhen, your mentor won't tell you that this guy is a soft girl, right?"

When Zhen Youqian heard this, he suddenly stood up from his seat.

He was shocked and then quietly said to his ears:

"Brother Xiaoyin, do you know this currency too?!"

Li Xiaoyin said disdainfully:

"I have used this kind of thing before, and not only red, green, blue, and gray, I have used it. But I haven't seen it now."

Zhen Youqian was overjoyed immediately. He grabbed Li Xiaoyin's arm and said:

"Brother Xiaoyin, it seems that you are the one who Master asked me to wait for!"

Li Xiaoyin: "Uh...Brother, are you kidding, have we met before?"

Zhen Youqian smiled and said without saying anything, but said with a little mysterious:

"Little brother, you can live here with me these days. My master has left you a gift. When I get it later, you will understand!"

"It's dark, so take your mount and go to the guest room to rest first. I've prepared a feast and good wine there, and we'll talk to you in the evening."

After saying that, he ran out of the backyard excitedly.

Li Xiaoyin touched his head and said a little embarrassedly:

"Brother, you have been talking for a long time. Have you forgotten my bell?..."

What if he doesn’t matter, put away Xiao Bailing first. If Zhen Youqian had some bad intentions, maybe he would send someone to steal Kun tonight!

He walked to the sleepy fish with dark blue skin and rubbed its head hard:

"Little Bailing, hey, don't sleep first, you can change back to the shape of the miscellaneous bird at the beginning, I have to hide you in my arms..."
