Han Fei and the others were stunned by Old Bai's words.
Han Fei had bought intelligence from Uncle Faceless, who said that ultra-quality pearls were equivalent to low-quality spiritual stones. In the Unknown Place, high-quality pearls, ultra-quality pearls, and low-quality spiritual stones were the mainstream currencies.
This was also the reason why he wanted to make money. Two billion might seem like a lot, but if you looked at it from another perspective, you would realize that it wasn't much at all.
Old Bai walked to them and said, "Come on, give me all the money."
Everyone: "???"
In an instant, except for Luo Xiaobai, the four of them immediately stood in front of the Sea Swallowing Seashell. Han Fei waved his hand and collected the Sea Swallowing Seashells.
Han Fei said, "President, you can't learn from Junior Uncle Faceless. Do you think it's easy for me? It wasn't easy for me to get this much money, and you want to take it all? Isn't that too much? "
Xia Xiaochan nodded. "Yes, it wasn't easy for me to trick … to earn it."
Zhang Xuanyu: "Principal, we are poor!"
Le Renkuang was secretly stuffing his Sea Swallowing Seashell. Are you kidding me? Old Bai still wants it?
Old Bai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Little b * stards, do you really think I will rob you of your money?"
Everyone nodded in agreement. More than that? You used to fight for ten thousand mid-quality pearls. Now that 2 billion was in front of you, how could you not be tempted?
Old Bai turned his head and looked at Xiao Zhan. "Tell them."
Xiao Zhan smiled speechlessly and said, "Alright, don't worry about giving the money to the principal. He won't embezzle your money, but if you take so many mid-quality pearls to the Unknown Place, it will be hard for you to spend them. "
"Why? Aren't mid-quality pearls a popular currency? Let's go and exchange. "
Xiao Zhan said, "Fine, since you are destined to go to the Unknown Place, I will tell you about it."
Everyone was stunned. There was a way?
Xiao Zhan asked, "Do you know where mid-quality pearls come from?"
Everyone shook their heads. They really didn't know. All they knew was that it was money.
Xiao Zhan said, "The pearls mined from the ocean can store spiritual energy. In the Unknown Place, people used high-quality or ultra-quality pearls because they contained a lot of spiritual energy. When they run out of spiritual energy, the high-quality pearls will become mid-quality pearls, and the ones below that will become low-quality pearls. "
"Ah?"
It occurred to him that the high-quality and ultra-quality pearls in Forge the Universe did contain spiritual energy. At that time, he was a little puzzled, thinking that the difference between them was the difference in spiritual energy.
Han Fei said in surprise, "So, mid-quality pearls are actually the waste left by those people in the Unknown Place? Completely useless? "
Zhang Xuanyu: "So, we've actually been treating trash as treasure?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head. "You can't say that. After all, when there were so many people, there would be a need to trade. They couldn't exchange items for items like in ancient times. There had to be a form of currency. The mid-quality pearls that have run out of spiritual energy are actually not bad in quality. They can greatly satisfy the mutual transactions between human beings. "
Suddenly, Han Fei said, "No, that's not right. If mid-quality pearls are continuously shipped back from the Unknown Place, it will inevitably lead to the continuous increase of the currency of human society. If there are more and more mid-quality pearls, it will cause inflation, and the purchasing power will plummet. "
"Inflation?"
Xiao Zhan couldn't help but be taken aback. Although he hadn't heard of this term before, it seemed quite appropriate.
Xiao Zhan nodded. "Yes, as there are more and more mid-quality pearls, the purchasing power will plummet. Therefore, every hundred years, the Thousand Star City will recycle a huge number of mid-quality pearls, destroy them, and turn them into energy that will return to the ocean. At that time, the purchasing power of mid-quality pearls will rise again. "
Han Fei was stunned. "How? Throw them into the ocean? Where are they? Let's find them. "
Xiao Zhan: "…"
Old Bai said, "Shut up and listen to the class."
Xiao Zhan said, "This destruction is not dumping, but crushing the massive low-quality and mid-quality pearls into powder and dispersing them between heaven and earth. Although the mid-quality pearls are completely empty of spiritual energy, the substances that make up the mid-quality pearls contain energy, but very little energy. Just like the sand at the bottom of the sea, they contain energy, but no one will dig them out. But after accumulating, the energy is not small. They will be fed back to the ocean and appear in another state. Do you understand? "
Luo Xiaobai nodded. "Yes, the substances that make up the mid-quality pearls will be absorbed by fish or other creatures and transformed into something else."
Zhang Xuanyu and the others also understood, but they didn't quite understand it.
Only Han Fei exclaimed, "The law of conservation of energy?"
Xiao Zhan asked, "What? Don't use these fancy words. Speak human language. "
Han Fei coughed and said, "That is to say, assuming that our world is closed, the energy it possesses is fixed. No matter how much energy we take from the world and the infinite ocean, the energy itself doesn't decrease, but just exists in a different form. Either it increases our own physique, or it disperses and returns to the world. Anyway, the total amount remains the same. "
Xiao Zhan and Old Bai looked at each other in bewilderment. It seemed that Han Fei understood it quite well.
Xiao Zhan said, "Yes! That's right. "
Han Fei's face suddenly turned red. "So, our so-called cultivation is to constantly turn a part of this world into a part of ourselves. The more we contain, the stronger we will be, right? "
Le Renkuang nodded. "That's easy to understand. It's like when I eat a lot of things, those things are not mine, but after I eat them, they become mine. "
Luo Xiaobai asked, "Wait, then what about those spiritual plants that I control and summon?"
Without waiting for Xiao Zhan to speak, Han Fei said, "Isn't it simple? It means that you borrow some energy from this world for temporary use and have to return it after using it up. As your strength improves, you can borrow more and more energy. "
Zhang Xuanyu asked, "Then aren't we soul warriors consuming our own energy?"
Han Fei explained, "So, an excellent soul warrior must practice a combat skill that can not only fight but also absorb spiritual energy, so that he can last a long time."
Xia Xiaochan asked, "Then what's with the stealth of our hunters?"
Han Fei was taken aback. "Is stealth related to energy?"
"Wow."
Xiao Zhan and Old Bai looked at each other in bewilderment. Damn, how did it change from currency to cultivation? Besides, it took them a long time to understand these principles before. But why did these geniuses … Especially Han Fei, seem to be born with this knowledge?
Old Bai and Xiao Zhan frowned. Geniuses who could cultivate were not geniuses, but those with high comprehension were. As far as they could see, Han Fei's comprehension was really f * cking … Way too abnormal!
"Cough, cough …"
Old Bai said, "Hunters belong to a special category. To become a hunter, you must first have a good understanding of space. Maybe you don't know it, but if you don't have this talent, you can't become a hunter. This has nothing to do with energy. "
Han Fei asked, "President, what is knife intent and other things? What are faith and these things? These things are also a kind of energy, right? Or rather, this is a kind of advanced energy that we don't understand yet. "
Old Bai paused and was silent for a while before he said, "It can also be understood as a more advanced energy. This kind of energy is said to come from heaven and earth, but it's not from heaven and earth. It's more like a law, a kind of mighty power. Only after you reach a certain level will you understand this mystery … Now, hand over all your money, and I'll find a way to exchange it for high-quality pearls for you. "
"Can I?"
Hearing this, Han Fei and the others hurriedly threw out all the mid-quality pearls they had just collected. Only Han Fei kept a hundred million.
This hundred million could be used as the development fund for the Thug Academy and The Fish Dragons.
However, Han Fei suddenly remembered something and asked, "President, I have a question. Can low-quality spiritual stones be exchanged for mid-quality pearls? "
Han Fei suddenly remembered that he exchanged a low-quality spiritual stone for 100 million mid-quality pearls at Junior Uncle Faceless's place. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. If mid-quality pearls were just used as pure currency, how could the ratio be 1: 10000?
Old Bai asked, "Do you have low-quality spiritual stones?"
Han Fei grinned. "A few."
Old Bai said, "This is related to the content of spiritual energy. One high-quality pearl contains about 1,000 points of spiritual energy. To balance the economy, there is a rule that 100 mid-quality pearls can be exchanged for one high-quality pearl. In fact, in private, no one is willing to exchange. One ultra-quality pearl contains about 10,000 points of spiritual energy, which is only 10 times that of a high-quality pearl. At this time, even fewer people are willing to exchange ultra-quality pearls for mid-quality pearls. If a fool insists on exchanging, there will be another 10 times gap, which means that one ultra-quality pearl can be exchanged for 10,000 mid-quality pearls. "
As he spoke, Old Bai squinted at Han Fei. "One low-quality spiritual stone and one ultra-quality pearl both contain about 10,000 points of spiritual energy. So, they can also be exchanged for 10,000 mid-quality pearls. Of course, only a fool will exchange for them. "
Han Fei was immediately upset. It seems that I'm that fool. It turns out that there is a difference in spiritual energy between the two.
Fortunately, Han Fei didn't exchange much from Junior Uncle Faceless. Otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss!
After collecting their Sea Swallowing Seashells, Old Bai cursed, "Get the hell out of here and do whatever you're supposed to do! By the way, don't make trouble. Your goal isn't to make money, but to win the 36-town competition and let the Thug Academy's reputation resound throughout the 36 towns. "
After driving them away, Old Bai shook his head.
Xiao Zhan: "???"
Old Bai covered his chest and asked him to calm down.
With that, Old Bai said to the Ghost Eye Giant Crocodile who was pretending to be dead in the corner, "Come with me."
The author says, "These chapters are transitional chapters about the setting of the world economic system. They are part of the worldview … None of them are straightforward! I'll be more straightforward in a few days … "
