Chapter 139: Exploding Gold Coins
A castle in the lakeside city was bought, and after transformation by the engineering team, it was quickly turned into a modern shopping mall building.
The only line pulled out in the city is connected to it, which is used for basic power and network transmission.
Chen Lin and his party drove into the city, and within a few meters they felt that the road was getting crowded.
The aisles on both sides were actually crowded with people at this time. The two cars could not move any faster in it. In the end, the guards got out of the car and forcibly blocked a passage in front. Only then did the vehicles Arrived at destination smoothly.
Chen Lin's arrival was also greeted in advance, so as soon as the vehicle stopped, someone came up to greet him.
The person who came introduced himself as Li Haowu. He was the person in charge of Lakeside City and a staff member directly recruited from the outpost.
After meeting, Director Li greeted Chen Lin warmly, and then motioned for them to follow him into the building.
This was Chen Lin's first time here. Since he was not familiar with the road, he naturally had no other ideas. He followed Director Li and entered the castle directly from the back door.
Immediately afterwards, I just felt my eyes light up.
Chen Lin was slightly startled by the scene that appeared in front of him.
At this time, it was as if a grand party was being held in the castle. The hall on the first floor of the entire castle was filled with people of all kinds. The door in the distance was opened directly, and it was crowded outside. There was a long queue of people going to the castle.
This scene is so much like visiting a shopping mall on Earth!
No wonder they can't even drive in. It's because the business here is so good that the crowd has blocked the entire front door.
Director Li led everyone to stop briefly on the first floor, and then motioned for everyone to take the elevator to the second floor.
"Is there an elevator?"
Chen Lin came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's really like an ordinary shopping mall."
"Everything you should have is there, and you need it. That’s the feeling.”
A few people followed Li Haowu into the elevator and noticed that it was specially designed to be made of glass, so that they could perfectly see the scene of the castle hall on the first floor.
A huge castle hall was completely transformed into the first floor of a shopping mall. The items sold at the counter at the door looked like jewelry. Chen Lin immediately pointed to the door and asked loudly, and got The answer was pretty much the same as I guessed.
"What we sell are top-notch artificial diamond jewelry. Our craftsmanship is now top-notch. The broken diamonds and large diamond blocks produced in the Central Plains are unexpectedly popular with them."
Li Haowu laughed. , pointing to the many Coman ladies and young girls standing in front of the counter in the door area below, "They had been holding back for a long time because of the war. After the orc army was confirmed to be eliminated, they couldn't wait to come out and consume."
When Chen Lin heard this, he immediately laughed: "How much is it selling for? Shouldn't we also provide them with any documents proving the value of this thing?" The middle-aged man next to him laughed. , then spoke up: "I used the old tricks of selling these things on the earth to them, and it works very well! The revenue from the sale of these artificial diamonds alone on the first day exceeded 2,000 Mavia gold coins."< br>
“A Mavia gold coin weighs about 22g, and the gold content fluctuates around 70. If it is calculated as 70%, a gold coin is about 15g, and the gold price is calculated as 450, then The revenue from selling these diamonds alone was nearly 14 million yuan on the first day.”
The person in charge smiled and gave Chen Lin's analysis data, "These diamonds are not expensive, one carat is one gold coin. These noble ladies of the Coman Empire like these unique jewelry."
"It's a bit like a profiteer..."
Chen Lin said to the man beside him, causing Li Haowu to laugh again: "Aren't we here just to mine, raise and grow vegetables and make money? ? I'm just making money for the outpost, and I'm not doing it for myself at all!"
Chen Lin nodded in approval, and then said: "But speaking of it, The purchasing power of these ladies of the Coman Empire is beyond my imagination. They seem to be very rich."
Li Haowu quite agreed with Chen Lin's statement.
"Most of these women are the wives or mistresses of the city's executives and leaders. The Coman Empire was at least a powerful human empire at the time. When it was prosperous, it outnumbered other empires for decades, and they also managed to save some wealth. "
He said with a smile: "I have made a dowry for us. When the goods behind us arrive, I will make these women crazy about it again."
Chen Lin and the people next to him looked at each other, and they all felt that the person in charge Li in front of him was a born businessman. It was perfect to recruit him here!
If this trend continues, this shopping mall will probably make these ladies in the city burst into gold coins. As new goods arrive one after another, the gold coins in their hands will gradually decrease!
Everyone followed Li Haowu's steps directly to the third floor. Chen Lin noticed that it had been transformed into a place for selling groceries, and downstairs was a daily necessities area.
"Originally I planned to put all kinds of tools and farm implements here, but then I thought the design might be a bit unreasonable, so I put all these things at the bottom."
Li Haowu led everyone there. In front of a room, it was obvious that his office was on the third floor.
"This is my office. Haha, this is also the study room of the former owner of this castle. It was transformed into an office space."
He opened the door without any scruples. , the bright and spacious interior was quite spacious. Chen Lin and two guards entered it, and the rest spread out to guard the surroundings. After all, there were still many citizens of Lakeside City wandering around on the third floor to look at the goods.
“This is a test field. It is the first shopping mall type place we have built here. It seems that the response is pretty good.”
Li Haowu personally poured tea for Chen Lin, and said while making tea: "The only drawback is that the Coman Empire is too vast and sparsely populated, so the flow of people is still a little less. The previous war caused the south bank of the Hope River to Seventy-eight percent of the people are dead, and Lakeside City is considered a lonely city. According to our statistics, the total number of people in the city is only 267,000, which is already a large city for the Coman Empire. "
“The former veteran general Ferriton Fran told me that there were more than 300,000 residents in Lakeside City at the beginning, and there were about 200,000 outside the city. But when the war came, there was no one inhabited for hundreds of miles. It's almost done."
He handed the cigarette to Chen Lin. When he saw Chen Lin waving his hand towards him not to smoke, he lit one on his own: "The new lakeside city outside the city is about to be built. Yes, I think what the base means is that it will carry out an immigration plan for people from other worlds, and then all the surviving refugees and victims of the disaster will be gathered and moved here. "
Chen. Lin thought about it carefully and realized that this was a good thing.
Gather the survivors together to form one large gathering, a win-win situation for both the outpost and the Koman Empire!
