Magic Tower Starry Sky
Chapter 1280: Emperor Wen
,!
"Hehe." The old emperor said with a smile: "Seeing you appearing here so skillfully, I would have thought you had been here before and memorized the location here. It seems that Your Excellency Tripwood is more respectful than you in the rumors." Be stronger. Are you willing to serve the empire?"
Facing the solicitation, Lin responded with a smile: "Why not. In my hometown, there is a saying that goes like this, men are not incapable of betraying, but the price is not enough; women are not incapable of cheating, but the temptation is not enough. Anything There is a price, even those things that are said to be priceless. If someone disagrees, it only means that the price given is not high enough. Of course, whether others are willing to pay too high a price is another matter .But this is called a transaction, isn’t it? Even if the transaction fails, benevolence and righteousness still exist.”
"Then what's your price? Can the empire afford it?" the old emperor tentatively asked.
Without thinking, Lin opened his mouth and said, "Give me a magic tower, and I can be a cow or a horse."
"Hehe, your Excellency has offered a price that no one dares to agree to. It seems that the idea of soliciting Your Excellency has to be given up. Then I would like to ask you some questions, what kind of price is needed?" Faced with the rejection, the old emperor said He didn't speak ill of each other, instead he asked in another direction.
Shaking his head, Lin said with an exaggerated expression: "It's a pity, besides the magic tower, I can't think of any other things I need. Money or treasures, either I don't need it, or I don't need too much."
"Oh, is that right? Then I will lose a chance to ask for advice." The old emperor joked along the words. But the expression on his face did not relax at all, but stared sharply at the person in front of him.
Of course, Lin could feel the pressure from his sight, and besides, he appeared here because the Goddess of Gold Coins was helping him. If you don't give face to the emperor, it means you don't give face to the goddess. If you do this, it will only be yourself who will be ugly afterwards. So someone made a haha, and said: "Actually, if you think about it seriously, I might have one thing that only Your Majesty can't do. If Your Majesty agrees, then I will know everything about your problem, and I will say everything."
"Oh, tell me."
Lin said bluntly: "I need an opportunity to issue an imperial order."
Such a request made the old emperor frown. He thought about the purpose of this magician, and said, "Your Excellency, why do you need such an opportunity?"
"Isn't this an obvious thing. When I need the empire to pass a decree, I, who have nothing to do with the empire, probably don't even know who to talk to about it. If the time comes, I will take the liberty to come before His Majesty , Putting forward such a request, treating me like a lunatic may be the best result. It is not surprising to have a thousand-mile chase. But if your Majesty agrees today, I will have a good reason to come to the door later." Lin said with a smile.
However, regarding such a matter, the old emperor did not let go easily, and kept thinking about it. Seeing this, Lin said again: "And your majesty, what I want is just a chance, not what I say, the empire must accept all the requirements. Of course, I can also accept as long as you are willing to give me a chance, no matter what In the end, whether or not the empire will implement this decree, I will regard you as having fulfilled your agreement with me and will not make a second request. Are you satisfied with such a promise?"
The old emperor finally spoke and said, "Your Excellency the Great Magician, can you guarantee that your request will not harm the interests of anyone in the empire?"
"Haha, Your Majesty, how can this kind of thing be done? Any decree or law is the same. While considering some people, it will inevitably harm the interests of other people. How to choose between the two is the most important thing. The wisdom of politicians. How can there be such a good thing that can benefit everyone involved. Even if you go to rob gold and distribute it to people in the whole empire, there will be some unlucky ghost whose gold was robbed, that's the reason."
"Indeed." After thinking over and over again, compared to what he wanted to know, the old emperor chose to compromise. He said: "Well, I agree. You have my promise, and even if I cannot fulfill it while I am alive, my heirs will keep this promise. So, my lord, about the bank, what can you tell me?" ?”
Seeing the emperor pointing out his own question, Lin did not answer directly, but asked, "Your Majesty, in what capacity are you asking this question?"
"Oh, is there any difference?" the old emperor asked curiously.
"The same sword, what this sword represents in the hands of a fledgling young man, in the hands of a father with a family, in the eyes of a general, in the hands of a city lord, king, and even emperor The meanings represented by the eyes seem to be the same thing. But will they consider the same thing? I don’t think so. The bank, that is, the priesthood of the goddess of gold coins, in the eyes of people of different heights, Of course, they also have their own directions of attention. That's why I asked, Your Majesty, in what capacity are you asking me this question."
"Holy Gwana? Athor Empire, the thirty-fifth emperor, Armin Kazarnia V, hereby ask His Excellency Tripwood the great magician about all kinds of banks." Very formally After announcing his identity and position, the old emperor said again: "I know what that old guy Ricardo Carvey did, but there are some things I can't figure out. Including the function of the bank, it seems that it is not just about depositing money and withdrawing money. Money is as simple as that. I need to know more for the bank to work in the empire."
"Okay, Your Majesty, as you wish." Lin said so, but there was no follow-up.
After a while, the impatient emperor showed a little anger and said, "Magician, are you teasing me?"
Not afraid of the majestic and angry eyes of the emperor, Lin said solemnly: "The emperor's art is never taught lightly. Your Majesty, are you sure you want so many people to hear it?" Looking at the eyes, there are many "irrelevant" people in the small hall. 'person.
Realizing his mistake, the old emperor was not angry, but more interested in what the magician might say next. He didn't even care about the danger of being alone with this magician, so he waved his hand and said, "You all step back." But he pointed to Ephron and said, "Son, you stay. If I do something, you also need to listen to the next thing."
The old emperor turned his head again and called out, "Yomeier!"
The emperor's true confidant, the tower-like figure of the commander of the personal guards, stepped out of the shadows. A mighty warrior in full armor, making no secret of his unique intimidation, but obediently waiting three steps behind the emperor.
Perhaps the footsteps were quite familiar, the old emperor did not turn his head to confirm whether the person appeared, but directly ordered: "Let all the guards go out and guard the small hall, no one can enter. Trespassers, kill! Then you Leave."
The emperor's instructions were quite clear, so the head of the personal guards only waved his hand, and the others should pack up and go. It didn't take much time. In the small hall where the emperor used to meet his private ministers, only the emperor Almin, the monk Ephren of the goddess of gold coins, the head of the emperor's personal guard, Yomel, and the protagonists of this meeting remained. , a magician, a total of four people.
Perhaps someone's height and vision prevented him from laying out the layout designed by Duke Kavi for his own territory, and of course he couldn't plan some details for an empire. But once he was a keyboard warrior, what he was best at was talking nonsense. Not to mention the endorsement of the experience of the entire earth's history, at this time, so-and-so is not fighting alone!
"Coin, as a widely recognized medium of exchange, the way it is used certainly affects the development of a country."
Starting with the above, Lin tried his best to fool the emperor of an empire... It should be said to describe a bright future and possible economic development.
These futures are not necessarily good, but also bad, and even evil. Lin also didn't care whether he was neutral or not when he was telling the story, without any emotions.
As for telling these things to the emperor of an empire, will it cause any adverse consequences. Honestly, Lin doesn't know and can't vouch for it, but that doesn't mean he shouldn't speak up.
Just like before I traveled, I often heard some economists make pessimistic predictions. The aftermath results all proved that these experts and scholars were either blind or their knowledge was bad. Anyway, none of the predictions came true. Doing financial investment according to their predicted trend will only lose a lot of money.
For the time being, let's not consider these people as black hands of certain capitals, fooling retail investors in the market. In fact, when these experts and scholars issued warnings, as long as they were normal people, they would of course try to improve the named defects and avoid the tragic future in the prophecy. In other words, the environment has changed, and the future predicted by those scholars is of course invalid.
There should be no one who knows that there is a wall in front of him, but he has to try his head to see if he is strong, so he must hit the wall.
In fact, this is also an instance where some people who study prophecy believe ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ that when the prophecy is spoken, the future has already changed.
Lin is also not worried that when an emperor hears the 'prophecy' he narrates, will he be frightened and simply ban all actions of the bank and exclude the influence of the Goddess of Gold Coins.
Just like a sword in the hands of a wicked person, it will play a different role in the hands of a good person. Few people choose to give up holding a sword because the sword may hurt themselves, or because they feel that they will do bad things with the sword.
As an emperor, how can he think that he can't control a sword, and can't control the two financial tools of money and banks? Unless today's abandonment is for a bigger plan tomorrow. But with new money and banks suddenly appearing in front of them, not many people have had time to plan something different. Because of this, an emperor would turn to a magician for help.
However, just as Lin didn't expect it beforehand, the layout of the Grand Duke Kavi for his territory was something he couldn't do with the eyes of an ordinary person. Lin also couldn't imagine what an emperor, especially a very capable emperor, would do after knowing what he said.
However, what the Goddess of Gold Coins and World Trees need is nothing more than the development of the bank. How those in power use this tool, as long as it does not touch the bottom line of the first two, of course they have no reason to refuse. And this is also Lin's attitude.
