The world enters the age of myth

A pound of rice costs 200 yuan...but what is the purchasing power of 200 yuan?

People in the Giant Turtle Civilization didn't know, so they could only ask Lu Yiming.

Lu Yiming did not deceive them, but said pertinently: "In the Capital of Clouds, today's prices, the wholesale price of rice is 0.61 yuan per catty, and the wholesale price of steel is 9212.44 yuan. This is the current spot market price of bulk commodities. Will There are certain ups and downs, and if you buy too much, the price may go up.”

"If you want to buy in large quantities, you have to go to the exchange over there to buy futures contracts. If you buy futures, the future goods are yours."

"I have to remind you that this planet lacks metal minerals, so the price of metals is relatively high, and it has been rising slowly in recent months. Due to the vast land and sparse population, the price of food is relatively low."

"Relevant commodity prices can be seen on previous exchanges."

Since all civilizations are engaged in construction, it is normal for metal prices to rise. Not only metals, but also cement, sand and gravel prices are rising.

Fortunately, people discovered a large shale oil field with a billion-ton reserve at a depth of about 6,000 meters underground in the planetary fortress, so the prices of fuel and various chemicals did not change much. However, the trading volume of these petroleum derivatives is not large. After all, ancient civilizations could not afford these industries. At most, they could buy some chemical fibers and use them to make clothes.

Through these price lists, the giant turtle man had a general understanding of the entire Yunhai Alliance.

Here...it's so rich!

In comparison, they giant turtle people are simply paupers.

"This planet has no metallic minerals?" Prime Minister Zhang couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, the surface almost does not exist. If you can develop iron ore in the ocean or even at the bottom of the Yang River, of course it will exist in large quantities." Lu Yiming did not hide this information. If the Giant Turtle Civilization really wants to join the Cloud Sea Alliance, it will also There’s no need to be stingy with details like this.

But he didn't say that the City of Clouds could mine metals... There were a lot of metals deep in the earth's core.

These giant turtles frowned, there was no metal, this was really a headache!

The ambassadors of the giant tortoise civilization kept wandering around the exhibition hall of the Great Jin Kingdom. In the exhibition hall of the Jin Dynasty, there are many types of grains scattered around, all of which are rich in vitality. They just look at it and don't touch it randomly.

200 yuan per catty is not expensive and affordable, but it is only enough for one person to eat for a day.

This kind of rice must be taken for a long time to be effective. It is meaningless to only eat it for a day or two.

That's a pretty big number.

In addition, there are also furs of some exotic animals and wooden furniture for sale. The wood comes from Qianlong Island, has a delicate fragrance, and is very expensive.

There are even living exotic animals for sale, and each one is priced very high. After asking, a mixed-haired cyan parrot that can translate actually costs two million!

Under the suppression of the Silent Realm, Parrot's translation ability is actually very poor. After speaking ten sentences, he can often only accurately translate one sentence.

But no matter what, this is also a very useful supernatural translation ability.

For civilizations that do not have this special ability, it is still worth buying.

"This parrot is a good thing." The emperor said excitedly, "It can translate languages... it's very good. We don't have such a thing yet, do you want to buy it?"

"It's too expensive, it's too expensive! Your Majesty, the price of two million is really... unaffordable."

Prime Minister Zhang frowned. He knew in his heart that the price was still worth it, but they already had translation capabilities. The spiritual communication of the Heavenly Master can be accurately translated. I bought this parrot and just kept it in the room as a plaything.

The emperor was a little disappointed, but in the end he was persuaded and did not buy it.

There is even a divination service here. Although it is expensive, the accuracy is really high, 200,000 per time.

"Hey, Mr. Divine Fortune Teller, why are you here?" Lu Yiming saw an old acquaintance and asked with a smile.

In the past, only apprentices stayed here, but this famous old man appeared here in person.

"If a noble person comes to visit, it's natural to take a look." The fortune teller said with a smile.

As a result, after hearing the term "divination", the young emperor of the Giant Turtle Kingdom got a little excited and kept making fire from behind, because their lineage of heavenly masters could also do divination.

After the old master saw the divine fortune teller, he became inexplicably angry, as if the two sides were natural enemies.

He counted with his fingers and suddenly realized that he couldn't calculate anything!

The divine fortune teller noticed the other party's eyes and immediately became happy. He thought to himself: "You can't calculate anything... There is a realm of silence in this world. It's strange that you can calculate it!"

The Jin Kingdom also conducted targeted research for a long time, and finally worked with Shenlong to develop a special compass.

Only through this compass can I barely make predictions, and the success rate is completely lower than before.

"Old man, how much does a fortune tell?" the young emperor suddenly said.

"Market price... 200,000!" The fortune teller held out two fingers.

It's too expensive. The price is too expensive.

Equivalent to twenty or thirty tons of steel!

Although the emperor was young and vigorous, he did not dare to be so extravagant and wasteful, otherwise the ministers would have been furious and would have been labeled as "unworthy of their ancestors".

The divine fortune teller smiled again and said: "I see that you are born into a wealthy family and are very popular, so I can tell you your fortune for free, for example, your birth date. Come on, just let me take a look at your palm and face." "

"Your Majesty, no!" The Heavenly Master quickly stopped the emperor. Birthday and horoscope are important secrets of a person and involve some special curses. If you are cursed after being calculated, you don’t know when you will die!

Moreover, the more Heavenly Master looked at him, the more he felt that the old man in front of him had evil intentions.

Seeing that they had no intention of fortune-telling, the divine fortune teller chuckled, as if saying to himself: "Fire people are strong-willed by nature, and they are born to like things that are smooth and not like being choked; if someone goes along with you, you will eat and drink, and you will help with the money; if Someone is bullying you..."

His language was translated by the golden parrot and reached the ears of everyone.

The emperor thought of his recent experiences. He had indeed been having a rough time recently. He had just ascended the throne. He originally wanted to make great achievements and change the pedantic social environment of the giant tortoise civilization, but he found that he was very frustrated! Everything is not as imagined.

I lost the last bet and felt very aggrieved.

"Then, you have to pay!" The fortune teller stretched out his hand and pursed his lips again, "The jewels this noble man is wearing can't be paid for even 200,000 yuan. If you don't pay, it's free of charge. This is not good. . Actors on the street are rewarded for singing, and storytellers are rewarded for writing books. It’s not good to have sex for free.”

Bai...whoring? !

What is this noun?

The young emperor blushed because he had no money. He really couldn't afford 200,000 yuan, and he couldn't get angry in public, so he could only snort and walk away.

Lu Yiming was confused, and he didn't know what the fortune teller was doing. It might be because these civilizations were naturally at odds with each other.

This kind of natural opposition exists in the world.

We will not visit the venues of the Da Jin Kingdom, and then we will visit the venues of the Yuzhu Civilization. The Yuzhu Kingdom is vigorously developing the textile industry.

They have some special craftsmen over there who are able to process spider silk into extremely high quality clothing.

This kind of clothing is excellent in terms of comfort and defensive performance, comparable to Class B protective clothing!

Class B protective clothing is actually quite good. After all, these clothing are mainly targeted at ordinary civilians, not soldiers in the army.

Of course, the output of special clothes is not very high. The best kind can only produce 100 pieces a month. The average level of cloth can only produce less than 500 pieces a month. But it can be regarded as an industry that can develop sustainably. Chained.

As a result, after the Yuzhu Man saw the Giant Turtle Man, he asked for a very high price. The best clothes cost 300,000 yuan!

It was doubled several times.

No price!

Even worse clothes cost 50,000 yuan!

The price is staggering, a thin piece of clothing costs 300,000...

Even the emperor himself felt luxurious.

It's all steel!

"Your Majesty, these clothes are indeed excellent...excellent!" Prime Minister Zhang swallowed and put them down reluctantly. They also have similar defensive clothes over there, called "Tian Silk", which also came from another country. Traded from an ancient civilization.

But compared to the best clothes here, it is a level lower.

No, maybe even two notches lower.

"This is clothes made from the spider silk spewed by the evil god. The production capacity is only two pieces a month, 300,000 yuan, not expensive! Absolutely not expensive!"

The ambassador of Yuzhu Civilization talked very much about the clothes he had on hand. In his opinion, these new civilizations were all big fat sheep, the kind that could be slaughtered severely.

Their Yuzhu Civilization is already poor. If they don't kill it, they will suffer a huge loss.

"Clothes made by the evil god spinning silk?" The giant turtle man was frightened, "Is it fake?"

As the biggest enemy of mankind, evil gods have even been encountered in history, and they caused a lot of trouble at that time.

It turns out that people here actually use the evil god's silk to make clothes?

Seeing some doubts on their faces, the Yuzhu man became a little angry, and his voice became louder: "How could it be fake! That evil god is a huge..."

At this point, he paused, as if he had violated some taboo, and hurriedly shut up.

After all, "Yuzhu" is the god they once believed in. Although it is dead now, the residual power of Yuzhu still exists.

So he changed the subject, "Anyway, the price is absolutely affordable! If you buy ten pieces at once, we can give you a 10% discount! It can't be cheaper anyway, and you can't find anything better in the entire trade show hall. clothing."

"This clothes is so comfortable, soft, elastic, and won't get dirty. Even if you scratch it hard with a knife, there won't be any marks. It's ten thousand times better than bloated and bulky armor!"
