Law of Fire

Chapter 188: Purchasing power

If there is any currency recognized all over the world, it is the currency of City One.

There is a currency exchange point at the Immigration Department, but City One only recognizes gold. If other cities do business with City One, they must first change the gold into currency, and then buy the industrial products of City One, but City One currency The reason why it is strong is because the currency can be exchanged for gold at any time in City One.

The currency linked to gold is naturally strong. In this case, Gao Qi must be willing to exchange the gold he brought into banknotes. Apart from other benefits, the key is that banknotes are much lighter than gold.

"Hello, exchange 20,000 grams of gold."

He lifted the box and pulled it to the window of the exchange point. He opened the box and put the gold bricks weighing one kilogram on the counter. After he placed twenty small gold bricks in a neat yard, the staff began to give the gold bricks. Weigh it and illuminate the gold brick with something that emits light.

"This is the standard gold brick issued by the Bounty Hunter Guild. The weight is correct. According to the current exchange price, the price of 20,000 grams of gold is 200,000 yuan in cash. Do you want cash or apply for a card? We can handle the first for you. The bank's bearer savings card only requires a management fee of 200 yuan per year, and can withdraw cash and consume with the password in City One."

"Apply for a card?"

Gao Qi froze for a moment. Although he had never used a bank card, he naturally understood this kind of thing.

I just didn't think that there would be a day when I could use the bank card. Gao thought about it, and finally turned to Qi Feifei and said, "Sister-in-law, I still need cash for the card."

Qi Feifei smiled and said: "A small part of the cash, ten thousand, let's put the rest on the deposit card."

Gao Qi was pleased to do so, set a password, and confirmed his signature. Then he added a silver-white bank card and a stack of red banknotes.

After taking the banknotes, he lifted up and divided the banknotes from the middle, and then gave almost half of the money to Niu Lidong, saying: "Here, take it."

Niu Lidong swallowed. He didn't take the money, but he said with a dazed expression: "Why give it to me?"

"Because...you can't be without money, right."

Niu Lidong still said with a dazed expression: "But what do I want money for?"

Gao Qi was speechless, he didn't know how to answer.

Huang Fei said impatiently, "You stupid boy, if you have money, you can buy whatever you like."

Niu Lidong frowned and took the money with a bitter expression on his face. Then, after struggling for a long time, he finally said, "How to buy?"

It seems that only Huang Fei thinks Niu Lidong's reaction is normal, but Qi Feifei said with a look of astonishment: "It's just to buy with money. You can pay for how much things are sold, or how else can you buy them? Haven't you bought anything?"

Niu Lidong said seriously: "We need to make something ourselves, or exchange, steal, or **** it, but we won't buy it. This money... is paper. What's the use? Why can people buy it with paper? thing?"

Qi Feifei means why not eat meat. Although she is smart, she doesn't know anything about the life of the deserted people. Huang Fei is different. Huang Fei is familiar with the deserted people. He knows that the deserted people can only barter. Concepts and habits, for paper money, it is really impossible to use it on the wasteland.

"You just treat this as food. One hundred yuan is equivalent to..."

One gram of gold costs ten yuan, but how much grain can be exchanged for one gram of gold is different in different places and at different times.

During the famine, ten grams of gold may not be worth a catty of rice, but in cities with ample food, one gram of gold can buy one hundred catties of rice.

Huang Fei thought for a while, and said to Niu Lidong: "You can buy at least 500 catties of rice with the money you have."

Niu Lidong is not stupid, he just lacks the concept of money, but is very sensitive to purchasing power.

Niu Lidong's eyes widened, he flipped over the stack of bills in his hand, and then put it directly into his pocket without hesitation.

Put the money in his pocket, but Niu Lidong felt unsafe, so he put his hand in his pocket and refused to take it out again.

"One piece is five hundred catties, one piece is five hundred catties..."

Gao Qi couldn't help but want to laugh, he patted Niu Lidong on the shoulder, and said: "Let's go, don't be foolishly talking."

Huang Fei still walked in the forefront, Qi Feifei took two steps tightly and held his arm, and Huang Fei raised his arm impatiently, trying to get rid of Qi Feifei, but Qi Feifei unswervingly held it again. Huang Fei's arm was lifted.

"Where to go."

Qi Feifei said with a sweet face: "Go to the hotel, I have booked the room, let's go to the hotel to rest, then we go to eat, I want you to taste the roast duck here, it is delicious, we have a shabu in the evening Lamb, and then boiled in stew..."

Huang Fei said impatiently: "If you eat, you will know how to eat. You come and lead the way. How do we get there?"

Qi Feifei beckoned, and at the exit of the immigration department, a concierge car, which looked very large, stopped in front of them. Then, the driver in black uniform got out of the car, opened the trunk, and started to lift the car. Put the luggage of He Niu Lidong in the trunk.

Qi Feifei took a small bag. Huang Fei didn't take anything. The raised luggage now left two gun boxes and a bag of clothes. Niu Lidong, his luggage was gone and confiscated.

Qi Feifei smiled at the driver: "Master, go to the Oriental Huaying Hotel."

The driver drove, Gao Qi and Niu Lidong sat in the third row, and then the two of them each occupied a car window, facing a large number of windows.

"It's great... it's much better than Wucheng."

There are a lot of pedestrians on the street. Although most of them seem to be in a hurry, everyone exudes an uplifting temperament. There are also many people in Foggy City, but everyone exudes a feeling of gloom and sadness. So , The first feeling is that City One is much stronger than Wucheng City.

"That is, where is our No. 1 City, what is the broken place in Wucheng, can it be compared? Let me tell you, before, Wucheng is indeed an international metropolis, but now, it's no good, hey , This is called Feng Shui turns around, don't you think?"

The driver who answered the call ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ stood up and froze for a while, and then he repeatedly said: "Yes, yes, Feng Shui turns around."

At this time, Niu Lidong suddenly pulled up with his hands, and after turning his head from the height, he saw that Niu Lidong's expression was very nervous.

"what happened to you?"

Niu Lidong looked serious, and said seriously: "Why so many people, look over there, what is that?"

Gao glanced at it and said, "Uh, the bus? Oh no, that's a tram!"

Niu Lidong swallowed, and said in a low voice, "Then there must be thousands of people?"

"Well, there should be."

Niu Lidong said with a serious face again: "You said that so many people are crowded, and a directional thunder will kill many people?"

Gao Qi was stunned, Huang Fei couldn't help but turned his head and glanced, while the driver who drove didn't look at Niu Lidong in the rearview mirror, and said with a vigilant expression: "This...little brother, you are here. Wouldn't it be troublesome to come to City One?"
