Become the Archbishop from Douluo

Chapter 18 The Weird Economic System

Now that we have decided to side with Wuhun Palace, we must keep the best technology, such as tanks and airplanes.

Using a torrent of steel to kill people without artillery is no different from using cavalry against primitive people with fire sticks. If we have the basic blueprints and cannot mass-produce them locally in the past twenty years,

tank model, or if energy sources such as oil are mined, it would not be unfair to lose to the two imperial armies in the end.

It seems a bit far to say this. The first priority is to go out to eat first. Now these basic firearms manufacturing drawings have been engraved in her mind. When she meets the Pope tomorrow and stabilizes, she will draw the real drawings and then find someone to copy them.

Carve it out, and you can estimate the approximate productivity based on the efficiency.

After returning to reality, Leng Xiyue suddenly felt a pain in her head. These design drawings seemed simple, just some parts and corresponding assembly techniques. In fact, there were corresponding process requirements for how to forge each part, and they were also given.

There are different building plans under different conditions, and they all add up to a lot. It will naturally cause some discomfort when these things are transmitted in one go.

After a while, Leng Xiyue let out a heavy breath and finally felt relieved.

The clothes sent by Wang Yan have been placed at the door. I have to say that they are quite good-looking. After all, I am going to see the Pope tomorrow, so it is not good to be too poorly dressed.

After changing into these clothes, Leng Xiyue also went to the restaurant downstairs to order some delicious food and learned about some approximate prices.

There are three types of currencies on the mainland, namely copper coins, silver coins, and gold soul coins.

One silver coin can be exchanged for one hundred copper coins, and one gold soul coin can be exchanged for one hundred silver coins.

It seems very simple, but in fact it also represents the gap between soul masters and ordinary people.

In terms of purchasing power, one copper coin can buy two steamed buns, and ten copper coins can buy a relatively sumptuous lunch. From this, it can be inferred that the purchasing power of one copper coin was between one yuan and two yuan in the previous life.

Ordinary people generally rarely use gold soul coins for transactions, unless they are buying houses or high-value livestock such as cattle and horses, and it is more convenient to use them to trade, otherwise they will not be used at all.

As for the gold soul coins, because they are too valuable to be used directly to buy groceries, no one will be able to find them. However, in the world of soul masters, the value of gold soul coins is definitely not that high. For example, as mentioned earlier

Insinuation, if converted into copper coins, wouldn't it be equivalent to tens of millions?

Based on the high-level slaves worth 100,000 gold soul coins and the demi-human girl who can be sold for 180,000, it can be speculated that in the eyes of soul masters and nobles, gold soul coins are no different from copper coins in the eyes of ordinary people. What they need is,

Income levels and consumer markets are also completely different from ordinary people.

In daily life, the best soul masters also enjoy life more. Their food and clothing are the products of specially bred soul beasts. They also have specialized industries to meet their needs. Over time, they will no longer eat ordinary people.

of food.

It can be said that gold soul coins and copper coins and silver coins can be regarded as two completely different currencies, completely in a state of separation, just like the spiritual stones of cultivators and the money of ordinary people. There is no comparison between the two.

However, the consumption environment and income conditions are completely inconsistent, and even two completely different groups are forcibly bound together by the exchange rate. As long as there is an evil soul master who is smart enough to save tens of thousands of gold soul coins.

This is capital's reasonable and legal use of exchange rates to disrupt the market for ordinary people. Isn't it more serious than killing a few people?

I really don’t know how this leaky exchange rate system has existed for so long.

Looking at the bowl of chicken soup in front of her that seemed to have been cooked by a soul beast and cost as much as twenty gold soul coins a bowl, with only a few pieces of meat in it, Leng Xiyue had some idea of ​​her next plan to make money.

According to the waiter, this chicken soup is very precious. It is made from golden-feathered chickens that have been grown for two and a half years. This kind of soul beast developed through continuous breeding is most suitable for making soup, so the price is naturally very expensive.

I have to say that this chicken soup does look quite different and tastes delicious at first glance, which is why she ordered such a portion.

Anyway, the money spent was not her own, so Leng Xiyue didn't feel any distress at all. At this time, she was also very hungry. She ordered four bowls of rice in one go, and ordered two chicken legs and ate them hungrily. The fifty gold soul coins

The money was spent immediately, and not a single one was left.

The restaurant in the hotel is quite high-end, and they are all distinguished guests from the empire. Among a group of gentlemen and ladies who are dining very elegantly, there is such a voracious girl. Naturally, it is extremely eye-catching, and many people look at Leng Xi.

Yue seemed to be curious about her origins.

Leng Xiyue didn't care about other people's opinions and ate it all in just a few minutes. It had to be said that it was expensive for a reason. These delicacies made with soul beasts as ingredients were indeed extremely delicious.

After returning to the room, it was already late at night after struggling for so long, and Leng Xiyue was already exhausted. She fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.

Early the next morning, before it was fully light, Wang Yan came to pick her up. After a simple breakfast, the two set off on the road to the Pope's Palace.

Wang Yan found a carriage and drove Leng Xiyue in the direction of Wuhun Mountain. The closer to Wuhun Mountain, the more primitive the buildings around the city were. Civilian soul guides were almost extinct here. Everything seemed to be lost.

It remains as it was when it was built.

These buildings have the characteristics of the ancient Roman era. They are all made of white marble. In just half an hour's journey, the huge difference actually gives Leng Xiyue a feeling of traveling through time.

The Pope's Palace is located on a prominent cliff on Wuhun Mountain. It is not a single building. There are some buildings behind the main hall, which are similar to ordinary palaces. In addition to the sleeping hall, there are also study rooms, library halls, conference halls, and training rooms.

It is a similar functional building, but when viewed from below, only the tall main hall can be seen.

From this location, you can overlook most of Wuhun City, and there is a huge square below it. From here, you can go up the steps to directly reach the gate of the Pope's Palace.

However, unless there are some grand events, or official visits by missions sent by kings or above, which require the Pope to meet and go through the procedures, the main hall is not open at ordinary times. If you want to meet the Pope, you need to report the corresponding matters to the office of the Pope one day in advance.

At the Wuhun Main Hall at the foot of Wuhun Mountain, the main hall will arrange time to meet with the Pope every day according to the severity of the matter. Most of the interviews in this way are private or family-level matters.

There are not many political matters within the Wuhun Palace that require the Pope's personal approval. Several bishops and presbyters in the main palace will properly handle these trivial matters. The Pope can take a look and change the decisions he is not satisfied with if he is interested. There is no such thing.

If you are interested, it is estimated that a major event that needs to be decided personally will come up in a few months. However, those who can become the pope are not only extremely powerful but also have a heart for the world. How can they completely ignore these trivial matters because of laziness?

The carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of the Wuhun Hall. At this time, the Wuhun Hall was already full of people. Many soul masters who were not from the Wuhun Hall would also come here to handle some matters, such as soul master level certification, and other matters.

There are some business licenses for special products, and some even travel thousands of miles just to get martial arts spirits for their children.

A cardinal stood at the door and walked over quickly when he saw Leng Xiyue getting out of the car.
