Chapter 73 The Essence of Gold Coin Resources

[Your Excellency the Governor is right, the eternal law of the multiverse, energy is constant, it will not be created or disappeared out of thin air, the army must be consumable if it is realized out of thin air, it cannot be generated for nothing, and The valuable coins generally recognized by intelligent creatures in this world are such consumables!

In the same way, the blood essence obtained by the governor through killing can improve the state of the human body, and it is also because the killing can allow the system to absorb the remaining life essence of those dead creatures, and finally condense and transform it into usable blood essence, which can be used to improve personal strength. Physical state!

This is also the reason why Qi and blood essence has no sequelae, because this is a transformation method that plunders other lives into itself, and it does not violate any laws of the universe! 】

"Damn! People can regenerate after death, and intelligent creatures can reproduce continuously. It doesn't matter how many you kill, but those metals can't be generated out of thin air. If they devour too much in the future and cause financial turmoil, what should I do?!"

[Sorry, the Total War system is just an auxiliary intelligence. There is no way to solve this problem. The Governor needs to control such complex economic problems by himself, or replace metal currency with banknotes, or only transform valuable luxury goods and art. To maintain the quantity of metal currency at a certain level, there are many uncertainties in the specific operations, and we can only rely on the Governor to explore on his own. 】

After Lei Zihao heard this, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he asked, "Then, if I issue banknotes, can I use the banknotes as gold coin resources?"

[The transformation of the total war system is not pure gold, silver, copper and other metals, but the belief power recognized by the intelligent creatures attached to it. If Your Excellency Governor has the ability to make all the intelligent creatures in this world recognize the value of the paper money you issue, naturally Yes, but, if Your Excellency the Governor really has the ability to pass the banknotes issued by him all over the world, there is only one way to conquer all races! 】

"Uh, why do we have to conquer? Can't we use economic warfare?"

[Of course not, because in this world, there are some mysterious races that do not need to use currency!It can be calculated that economic warfare cannot destroy the precious metal currency system in this world, because it is impossible for races that do not use currency to recognize paper currency. 】

Lei Zihao was stunned: "Then they won't recognize gold coins, right? Why are gold coins acceptable but paper currency not?"

[Because precious metals such as gold coins are non-renewable resources, and banknotes are cheap printed matter that can be continuously produced. If this kind of printed matter wants to be truly imprinted with the power of belief recognized by intelligent creatures in the entire world, the only way to force it is to use swords and force. It must be recognized by the whole world!

This contains profound theories of quantum physics, transcendental beliefs, spiritual beliefs, basic laws of the multiverse, etc. It is impossible for the Governor to understand...

If your Excellency the Governor really can conquer the whole world one day, there is no need to create an army by swiping banknotes, because by then, you will have an unimaginable army! 】

Lei Zihao rubbed his chin, wondering: "According to what you say, is it difficult to conquer this world?"

[The power of this world is far wider than what your Excellency Governor has seen and heard. This is not the earth. The vast ocean isolates this world. On the other side of the ocean, even the system cannot detect any kind of life! 】

"Okay, the system, you managed to push me again, the power shown in this world is already huge enough, and you still tell me that these are just the tip of the iceberg?
Can I opt out of the game? "

[Yes, death is the end of everything! 】

"Forget it, when I didn't say..."

[Your Excellency Governor, according to calculations, you can carry out economic transformation to maximize the benefits. Luxury items with great economic value, artworks and other high-end items are best used for the conversion of gold coin resources, because the value of such items When it falls into the hands of His Excellency the Governor, it will depreciate in value over time. 】

"Wait~ Why is Mao's work of art in my hands, devaluation instead of appreciation?!"

[The specific reason cannot be explained clearly by the system...]

"Then pick something simple!"

[If you have to give an explanation, you can use the illusory word 'personality' to understand...]

Lei Zihao: "0_0..."

[In addition to these high-value items that may depreciate, it is recommended that the governor best convert the most valuable coin, which is gold!
Gold is the strongest currency in this world, and it has the most belief power of intelligent creatures attached to it, with the highest conversion value. Your Excellency the Governor can completely replace the commercial status of gold coins with silver coins and copper coins of little value. Internal business activities can also be used The government's reputation is maintained by cheap items such as 'silver notes', but it is best not to issue too overbearing banknotes. In this world, it is difficult for indigenous forces to accept paper currency. If it is enforced, it is likely to greatly reduce the loyalty of the people. , trigger a riot! 】

"Well, I understand. In the final analysis, it is a matter of the credibility of intelligent creatures. The common people in this world are too ignorant and rigid, and it is difficult to accept new things, let alone closely related currencies. I will pay attention to this in the future. What's more, even if I want to print banknotes, with the ability of that primitive paper-making workshop to print, I'm afraid it won't take long for counterfeit currency to fly all over the sky..."

Lei Zihao looked at the mint under construction, wanting to search for the people's fat and blood to the greatest extent... Oh, no, it should be said to 'protect the home and the country' to the greatest extent, and there may be a shortcut for minting coins!
The value of coins in this world is not only based on the ratio of gold and silver, but also the bonus of exquisite picture quality and damage resistance!

However, for the total war system, what is absorbed is pure gold and silver. After all, what intelligent creatures recognize is not gold coins and silver coins, but the value of gold and silver itself!
Therefore, the inflated value of those superficial currencies is useless to the system!
In other words, even if there is a giant hoarding gold and raising the price of gold, the value of gold is still fixed for the system, because the increase in the price of gold is only relative to those ordinary people. For the upper class and even giant merchants, the value of gold is Invariably, raising the current price of currency is just a means of making profits!

Obviously, this kind of vain surface cannot increase the currency value absorbed by the total war system...

Although Lei Zihao didn't understand the reason for this, he knew very well that this completely eliminated his way of using economic means to raise the price of gold to increase the value of currency absorption...
