Chapter 206: Cast currency, golden quality!

"Well, it's time to make currency!"

Xia Tian took Xiao Yaochi back to the lord's mansion and handed it over to Huang Rong and Qingwen to take care of it.

I entered the quiet room and took out the "Xuanniao Coin Furnace" and "Dragon Pattern Masterplate" from the lord's space.

The "criminal silver" handed over by He Shen made Xia Tian think of one thing, that is, the territory's demand for currency is increasing.

Since many of the new people who joined the territory have gained a lot in the secret realm, they have entered the market for transactions in the past few days, causing a surge in demand for "spiritual stones". In addition, Xia Tian is still working for the territory residents above the mortal level. According to For cultivation, spiritual stones are distributed for cultivation.

Even if the kobolds in the dark cave have excavated a lot of spiritual stones these days, they are still not enough... What's more important is that the spiritual stone mine in the dark cave is about to It's about to be dug out!

Although Xia Tian has asked the "Sky Eagle Guard" to take the Eyes of God to search for new spirit stone veins, in his heart he wants to come up with something that can replace the spirit stones, and through the "Great Qin Mint" Create a "furnace" and circulate it to obtain "luck" currency for the territory!

"Especially the upcoming auction, it is definitely a very good opportunity to promote currency..."

This time in the secret realm of the imperial mausoleum, Xia Tian distributed hundreds of copies Many of the "auction orders" were given to the surrounding human lords, if these people could be allowed to accept the "currency" minted by themselves.

It even eventually circulated in the opponent's territory, enough for him to gather the luck of the human race within a thousand miles, and truly enter the city stage quickly at a speed far exceeding that of other human race territories.

“However, it may not be easy to create a currency that is more suitable than spirit stones. It must be attractive enough. Otherwise, other lords will definitely be willing to use spirit stones, or cast and issue their own currency. , instead of using the existing currency that others have the right to mint..."

Xia Tian focused his mind on the metal plate engraved with the dragon pattern, integrated it with the power of his mind, and visualized what he wanted The appearance of the "coin" to be minted, and the dragon-patterned metal motherboard glows, and the pattern on it is constantly changing!

"Well, the external form of the coin does not need to be changed too much, just use the most traditional and symbolic copper coin style of China's 'round sky and square place'."

After all, "the sky is round and the square place is round" "The coin style has been popular since the Qin Dynasty. It is the oldest and most recognized coin shape in the entire land of Kyushu. In a sense, it itself embodies the "luck" of many dynasties in China!

However, the style of the coins remains unchanged.

However, the patterns on the front and back of the coin can be designed in a drastic way and become the focus of efforts.

“Well, the front side of the coin can be designed to be a 'miniature' form of my own territory or the immortal city... As for the back side, some special mountains, rivers and cultural landscapes of Kyushu can be engraved on it. ...For example, the Great Wall, the Yellow River, and even the Golden Platform can be added..."

Such a currency only needs to be spread out. In addition to attracting human races from the Kyushu world, it also gives you territory. Advertise to further expand your visibility.

It took about an hour, Xia Tian determined the "version" of the territory currency.

The next step is to choose the material for casting currency!

Thanks to the huge harvest of the "Imperial Tomb Secret Realm", Xia Tian's territory is already quite rich in various resource materials. The number of materials that have reached the level of transformation alone is enough to reach hundreds...

High-grade spiritual ores used to create spiritual weapons, bones and feathers from high-level aliens, even gold nuggets from the fusion of twelve golden men, clay from broken terracotta warriors and horses... all kinds of materials can be said to be available. !

It’s just that not everything is suitable for coinage.

One of the simplest and most basic requirements is that the core materials for casting currency must have the ability to be "reproducibly obtained" to a certain extent!

After all, once the currency is really successfully promoted, the amount that needs to be minted in the future is likely to be huge, which also means that some materials that are scarce and cannot be obtained repeatedly are not among the options at all.

“Let’s try the effect of directly using the ‘Spiritual Stone’ to mint currency first.”

After thinking about it, Xia Tian decided to test it directly with the Spiritual Stone first.

Because this thing itself belongs to the well-deserved hard currency of the "Eternal Land" and is born with currency characteristics!

The more important point is that according to his previous exchange with Lai Buyi, if he can collect the "Nine Sons of the Dragon·Stone Statues" to condense the dragon veins and increase the spiritual power of the territory to a certain level, he can completely rely on Feng Shui. Condensate the "Spiritual Stone" with force to meet the conditions for repeated acquisition.

A spiritual stone about the size of a thumb, with a crystal clear color, appeared on Xia Tian's hand, and he put it into the "Great Qin Mint Furnace" that was placed vertically, with its head held high like an upright black bird.

Then, choose to consume your luck to "mint coins".

Bah!

Above the furnace.

Suddenly, a white flame surged and lifted the spirit stone into suspension.

Then, a divine bird that looked like a phoenix but had black feathers all over appeared from the furnace wall. It let out a clear cry, vibrated its wings, and started carving the spirit stone that Xia Tian had thrown into the coin furnace with its beak!

“Good guy, is this casting process a bit interesting?”

“Ding!”

The casting speed is very fast, about ten seconds, accompanied by a sound like It rings as crisply as gold and jade.

The black bird held two coins in its mouth and completed the casting. The crystal-clear "currency" was put into Xia Tian's hands. It was slightly cold in the hand. It was about an inch in diameter and had rounded edges. The Kyushu characters on it were written with mountains, rivers, and territories. The pattern looks very complicated, but every detail is meticulous and exquisite!

[Spirit Coin (Blue)]

[Characteristics] Exquisite (exquisite shape, people like it), gathering luck (during the circulation process, it can continuously gather luck for the territory)

[Description 】A currency with a very exquisite shape and containing very pure spiritual power.

"Not bad, very good..."

Because there were too many things engraved on the currency designed by Xia Tian, ​​he was originally worried that the patterns on the currency could not be clearly seen.

However, this "Xuanniao Coin Minting Furnace" was indeed a jade-white rare object, and the coins it produced were more exquisite than he imagined, and could be called a work of art.

"Moreover, the purity of the spiritual power in this 'Spirit Coin' is far higher than the original spirit stone..."

Xia Tian held the "Spirit Coin" in his hand and tried to operate it. When doing the exercises, it feels like the spiritual energy is drawn out effortlessly.

“It’s because the fire in the minting process greatly removed the original impurities in the spirit stone, and what was carved out of the ‘Xuanniao’ was not only the pattern, but also in a certain sense. 'Spirit patterns' can more easily transmit and mobilize spiritual power."

"If you originally used spiritual stones to practice, absorbing spiritual power required a lot of mental energy, but now you use this 'spiritual coin' to practice. Only needing to consume three points of power... also means that both the speed of practice and the time an individual can practice continuously can be significantly increased..."

Xia Tian's eyes lit up.

There is no doubt that such currency and spiritual stones are both in front of them, and most people will choose the former, even if the spiritual power in the currency is only half of the spiritual stones!

“It seems that I have underestimated the role of ‘Jade White’ in assessing rare objects. I can cast such an amazing currency just by using simple spiritual stones...”

And, One spirit stone can also produce two spirit coins.

It can be said that if you ignore the consumption of coins on the territory's luck, you only need to throw the spirit stones into the "coin furnace" to cast them into "spiritual coins", and your value will increase by at least double!

"Good guy, I thought it would take a lot of time. I didn't expect it to be successful in one go, so simple?"

Xia Tian muttered in surprise.

"Well, no, this 'Spirit Coin' is shrinking..."

However, Xia Tian soon frowned.

Just because he found that the "jade coin" in his hand became transparent as he absorbed it, the pattern on it became blurred, and even the volume shrank.

When the spiritual power contained in the spiritual coin was completely absorbed by him, the entire jade coin even completely disappeared in his hand!

"Is it because after this 'spiritual coin' is refined, it is almost completely pure spiritual power crystallized?"

Generally speaking, even spiritual stones can remain after being absorbed. Put down some stone impurity powder.

But the "spiritual coin" tempered by the "coin furnace" is so pure that it will be consumed when used for practice, and even the spiritual power will no longer exist if it is used as currency!

Obviously, there is still a flaw in such a currency.

For Xia Tian, ​​the main purpose of creating "currency" is to allow it to "circulate", thereby increasing the luck of one's own territory.

A currency that will disappear completely after use will not only greatly reduce its liquidity, but also means that currency must be continuously minted in the future to maintain the amount of currency in the market!

"Huh, it seems that the 'spirit coins' made from pure spirit stones are not advisable. Some 'miscellaneous' materials that can maintain their shape need to be added..."

Summer Consciousness to the problem.

Just what materials are added? This material must be able to be obtained continuously like spirit stones, but it must also have some special characteristics.

At least it will not lower the quality of the currency by adding it to the currency.

In this case, there are not many choices. However, Xia Tian quickly found a few things.

For example, the "five-color soil" cultivated by the "Houtu God Statue" is a derivative of the golden wonder and has some legal characteristics.

After trying to add it to the coin furnace in the summer and casting it together with the "Spirit Stone", a "Spirit Coin" with five different colors was successfully minted!

When absorbed, the corresponding spiritual power will be transformed into different attributes such as "metal, wood, water, fire, and earth".

Moreover, after absorbing the spiritual power, the five-color currency itself will still be retained. If it is buried in the "spiritual vein" with abundant spiritual power, it can even automatically absorb the spiritual power again!

“Good guy, is this equivalent to changing from ‘disposable’ to ‘rechargeable’?”

Xia Tian’s face showed some emotion, such a currency is undoubtedly enough. His original request!

However, this "five-color coin" also has some problems.

First, the spiritual power inside it has the "five elements attributes" and is no longer pure. Although it is beneficial to some people, it also limits its circulation ability to a certain extent.

Secondly, after incorporating the "five-color soil", the newly created currency has a significantly slower growth rate for cultivation than the original pure spiritual currency.

In other words, it only relies on the "spiritual pattern" on it to give it a slight advantage over the spirit stone.

The most important thing is that the "five-color coins" can be recovered through burial, which does not seem to be entirely a good thing.

Thus, for human territories with spiritual veins, they only need to have a certain amount of currency to achieve "self-sufficiency"!

"In that case, how can I make money from these lords by casting currency?"

Spiritual coins and five-color coins have their own advantages, but they also have shortcomings.

It would be great if we could create a currency that has no worse effect on improving practice than spirit coins, has a certain degree of circulation, and can "self-destruct" to a certain extent.

Xia Tian thought a little greedily.

Then, Xia Tian tried to incorporate some other things to create "currency".

For example, the 'Golden Spirit Coin' cast from the gold bricks derived from the Golden Platform, the 'Jade Spirit Coin' cast from the jade slips derived from the Langhuan Jade Mansion... But the overall effect is compared to the 'five-color coins' derived from the Houtu Statue. Even worse!

"Although the items 'derived' from the strange object building have certain rules, they are not suitable for casting currency...unless there are strange objects related to money..."

"Well, I forgot about it, but I just got one..."

Xia Tian's hand flashed with light, but a box containing "Silver Ingot" appeared, which was He Shen's The natal rare item is "criminal silver".

“This crime silver can be used to create ‘silver ingots’ by consuming luck, and it is also a ‘renewable’ resource!”

"Silver itself is also one of the currencies. In addition, the 'criminal silver' absorbs people's distracting thoughts and karma, and also has the characteristics of accelerating cultivation. If it is used as a 'material', it is likely to be more powerful than the 'five-color soil' "Okay!"

Xia Tian threw a spirit stone and a silver ingot into the "Xuanniao Coin Furnace" with anticipation.

“Ding, ding, ding…”

With a burst of white flames and the sight of black birds flying, the minting furnace of the first “unification” dynasty in the history of Kyushu will After the "criminal silver" produced by the last dynasty was melted, it was refined, fused, and gradually formed with the "spiritual stone" in the eternal land...

The whole process was completed by the minting furnace, and Xia Tian also There is no intervention, it seems to be following some kind of mysterious rules of heaven and earth.

This time, the spiritual coin that came out of the minting furnace was a "jade coin" with a color similar to that of white jade. It had a bit more history than the original transparent "spiritual coin".

The most important thing is that Dang Xia picked up a jade coin and tried to use it to practice.

I found that its rate of increase in cultivation is not much different from the original "Spirit Coin".

Even faster.

Just because, while he drew spiritual power from the "Jade Coin", his own "distractions" and even "karma" also turned into traces of black aura, blending into the "Jade Coin" , let it turn into black and white!

[Jade Coin (Gold)]

[Characteristics] Absorb the power of sin (can absorb the holder's 'karma, distracting thoughts, desires, wishes, etc.'), gather luck (can continuously provide for Territory gathers luck)

[Description] A currency with very precious characteristics and high value.

[Remarks] After absorbing enough sinful power to completely "turn black", the jade coins will be forcibly "turned over to the inner treasury"!

“This ‘spiritual coin’ has completely inherited the characteristics of the ‘criminal silver’...”

Xia Tian's face showed a bit of joy.

Not to mention anything else, just the fact that it has changed from blue to gold in the evaluation of the earth's will is enough to prove its value!

You must know that in the land of eternity, in addition to positive influences such as one's own "talent and luck", a person's cultivation speed will also be negatively affected by one's own "karma, distracting thoughts", etc., and using this " The practice of "Jade Coin" not only allows you to absorb spiritual energy more easily, but also eliminates your own distracting thoughts and karma...

A single spiritual stone cannot be compared with it.

Xia Tian is absolutely sure that once he promotes this kind of "jade coin", it will soon be in circulation.

Especially as the "jade coin" absorbs spiritual power, it will change accordingly, which also means that its value can be determined more precisely based on the proportion of "black and white parts". You can consider making some marks on the edge of the jade coin to mark it. Further divided into ten parts, or even hundred parts... In this way, jade coins can be used to purchase some daily supplies, so that they can be circulated even among ordinary territorial residents. "

Xia Tian's face showed a satisfied expression.

"But, what does 'turn it over to the national treasury' mean? ”

Xia Tian didn’t quite understand, so he decided to try it himself.

His cultivation level was not too far away from eight transformations. With full absorption, he had already transformed one in ten minutes. After the spiritual energy in the jade coin was absorbed, the color of the entire jade coin turned black

Then, the next moment Xia Tian noticed that the "jade coin" that had turned completely black in his hand suddenly turned into a ball of black smoke and dissipated!

What happens? Will this "jade coin" be destroyed like the "spiritual coin"?

Xia Tian frowned slightly.

"Ding Dong!"

However, the next moment, there was a box containing "Silver".

However, a black energy condensed in the air and regrouped into a black "jade coin" emerging from the void and falling in the center of the silver!

“So that’s it, is this ‘turn over to the inner treasury’?”

The “criminal silver” is money that officials can turn over to forgive themselves, and the money turned over will eventually be returned to the Within the emperor's "inner treasury".

The "Jade Coin" that inherits its characteristics also has the same characteristics.

The only problem is that we can only recycle the jade coins that have completely turned into "black". They no longer have any spiritual power, and are replaced by various "distractions, karma, greed", etc.!

For many people, this is something they avoid for fear of being contaminated.

“So, what is the use of this thing?”

Xia Tian picked up the “Black Jade Coin” again.

["Should we use the 'Middis' method' on the 'Black Jade Coin'?"]

A reminder emerged in my mind.

After thinking about it, I still adopted the currency system in "Eternal Kingdom"... But I always felt that there was a big problem with the way this currency can be recycled.

However, I haven’t thought of a better way yet...
