Magic Tower Starry Sky

Uzov's concerns are well-founded.

In Midi, the most expensive building, apart from building a city from scratch, is to build a magic tower. Three floors are the basic, and for each additional floor, the price will be doubled at least, and the five floors will be the top.

For a more intuitive comparison, take the Gwana Empire as an example. To build a five-story pagoda for Dharma Saints to live in, not counting some additional facilities and structures, but only basic expenses, it will take about three years of the total tax revenue of the empire. If you build more weird things, there is no upper limit.

Therefore, every magic tower that has been handed down to this day is the result of continuous modification and addition by previous tower owners. For the first tower owner to see, some even make them unable to recognize that they were once their own works.

The temple, as the name suggests, is the temple of the gods. Except that there is no energy supply facility such as an energy pool, the materials and specifications of the exquisite temple are not inferior to the magic tower at all. It is conceivable that the cost can definitely keep those who make a vow to raise donations to build the temple busy for a lifetime, and it may not necessarily be able to build an area the size of a toilet.

Incidentally, the architecture of the church is less particular. Maybe an ordinary house can be used as a church with a little planning. This is also a big difference between the two. Of course, you have to pay attention. Compared with the magic tower, there is no upper limit... On the earth, can a detached three-story house, a luxury villa, be compared with a condominium?

However, for this follower's worries and suggestions, Lin just shook his head with a smile and said: "There will be many places where we can cooperate in the future. The gold coin temple next to the technology guild must be built by ourselves, so that we can Follow our ideas and serve as a model for others. If I find collaborators from the beginning and just integrate their opinions, I will just be busy with their ideas, and I don’t need to do other things.”

The situation someone said was exactly what I experienced during the establishment of the automobile manufacturing and R&D center. Mr. Kawei and the Ruan Brothers of the Jialong Chamber of Commerce are partners that were agreed upon at the beginning.

As a result, the person who came up with the brain almost killed himself in order to integrate the opinions of the two investors, but also not to stray too far from his own plan. Maybe Midi doesn't have the idea of ​​"customer is king", but "money is boss" is a universal truth. Not to mention that one of them not only has money, but also has power and soldiers, to see if others are afraid.

Lin didn't want to do the same thing twice. So he said to Uzov: "In short, let's build a demonstration building by ourselves first, and don't be influenced too much by others. Others can do whatever they want on their own site. My plan However, it is necessary to cooperate with the local people in the shortest possible time to spread out to the full fan. Anyway, there is the **** Ke Yin dealing with them, and it is not up to us to follow the requirements."

"The part of the funds is not easy. I can use the method of installment settlement to reduce the burden of payment. But I am afraid that if I do this, there will still be a gap." Uzov secretly calculated the cost of a temple, and The wealth of his cheap master.

Lin smiled and said, "What if we don't use the standard temple building method."

"Ah, oh." Uzov said suddenly: "Sir, you mean to coat ordinary materials with magical materials." This is how someone built his mansion in the holy city of Estali.

"Let's save a little more, you don't need to build defense facilities to the degree of watertightness, many places can be built with ordinary materials. Anyway, there are lodgings for the Turtledove Alliance and adventurers nearby, so it is still possible to temporarily recruit people to repel foreign enemies. What's more, no money will be put in the temple, and it will be sent directly to the kingdom of the goddess of gold coins. As long as the brain is healthy, it should not be robbed in the kingdom of God. If you have this ability, you can grab more valuable things , not heavy and heavy gold coins."

"Well, that's true." Uzov compared his own experience a little bit, estimated the cost, and said: "In this case, it won't cost much money. Sir, you should be able to solve the problem with the property you have deposited in the guild. Already. Do you need guild support?"

"The current situation on your side is not easy to operate." Lin said. Also know that this follower is just a casual mention.

In the early days of the technical guild, the rules were not so big. Although at someone's insistence, the public account, salary account, and private account are calculated separately, but the coins are all put together, and sometimes it is inevitable that there will be misappropriation. But it can always be made up quickly, so that the skylight will not be skipped.

However, with the development of the guild and more and more people joining in, under someone's emphasis, the financial accounts must be very clear and open to everyone. At the same time, as long as anyone has doubts, they can publicly count the coins stored in the guild under the witness of witnesses at any time.

It was this unprecedented action in Midi that made Uzov's position in the guild unshakable. No one believes that there will be a second fool like this. Uzov can be regarded as the consensus reached by all forces and craftsmen at the grassroots level.

However, it was precisely because of this action that what Uzov just mentioned became impossible. Maybe he relied on the power of the guild leader to use it in private, and maybe someone would jump out to check the account when he turned his head. This old archer from the Turtledove Alliance has dissatisfied many people. You can pull him down, kill him, no one will show mercy.

Uzov, who was well aware of his situation, couldn't help but sigh. He may appear to be high and powerful on the surface, but he is actually walking on a tightrope. If one is not careful, it may end in pieces.

Not to mention that I live in a city of magicians, no matter how good the craftsmanship of the craftsman is, and no matter how many people I gather, I am not an opponent of the group of magicians. So all along, he has always carefully managed the relationship between the guild and other organizations in the Holy City, for fear of being destroyed overnight.

In the current situation, everyone wants it, but no one dares to reach out first. Not to mention that the main backer of the guild on the surface is the Banjiu Alliance, and no one is sure that it can win without injury. The one who reached out first might have exhausted the strength of the Turtledove Alliance in the holy city, and was backstabbed when he turned around, allowing others to pick the fruits of success.

But Uzov had other options, too. He said: "If the guild's money is not enough, I actually still have some savings..."

Lin directly interrupted his follower and said, "Forget it. I know that most of your money has been used to help the members of the alliance, and there is not much left. Even if you don't want to build a standard temple, your little money, It can be of any help. Keep it."

Uzov smiled mischievously. Lin said again: "Speaking of which, what we built is not considered a temple, so I plan to change the name to a bank."

Maier asked curiously, "Why did you change your name? And why did you call it a bank?"

"If you name the temple of the Goddess of Gold Coins, it is easy for devout believers from other churches to dare not enter. Some people may also worry that if they are not believers, they will be forced to donate after entering. If this is the case, it is better to call the church The color of the bank has been weakened, making the bank a neutral place where everyone can come and go freely. Of course, fighting in the bank is strictly prohibited.”

As someone said, the concerns that outsiders might have are justified. More than 300 years ago, during the craziest era of religious wars, Templars and monks preached by using a holy book in one hand and a mace in the other, asking if they wanted to convert or change religion while beating.

Usually no living person refuses... because those who refuse are dead. In this way, regardless of their standpoints of good and evil, various churches of the gods would swipe three times and four times, often turning a town of living people into a town of dead people.

Things have developed to such an extent that the secular nobles can't help it anymore. Perhaps the collusion between theocracy and the political power can maximize the exploitation of the people, but the premise is that someone can exploit it. Who will go after killing everyone? Is it possible to cut up the flesh and bones of the corpse and make soup to sell?

Therefore, in the latter part of the era of religious wars, the nobles from all over the place strongly intervened to completely wipe out the armed forces of each church. But it does not invade the Kingdom of God, trying to destroy the belief in the gods.

If you don't touch the bottom line, the church's armed forces are just the church's armed forces, and the gods will not show up in person. In fact, such a bottom line also implies the dissatisfaction of the gods with the church's armed forces. I am used to violence, and there will always be someone who will do something conveniently and cover it up under the righteous name.

But the nobles destroyed the church by force, and they were not unscathed. It was precisely because of this crazy turmoil that Midi entered the next recuperation period. All countries and forces are accumulating strength, developing wasteland, and competing with nature.

Especially the pressure from the natural counterattack, the harassment of monsters and uncivilized races made the world of Homo sapiens temporarily put aside their prejudices between each other, and consolidated and preserved the fire of civilization.

But the madness of the Wars of Religion ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ has not been entirely forgotten. This is also the reason why secular power will not specifically support or even combine secular power against divine power, even if it does not deliberately suppress it. That's why Lin had the idea of ​​asking the bank to lower its religious color.

And he continued: "As for why it's called a bank, it's just a habit in my hometown. It seems to be called Bianke, Qianzhuang, Yinlou, and ticket number... Ah, the ticket number is not good, and there is no ticket. What a nonsense. Anyway, I want to You can call it any other name, you can discuss it with the goddess of gold coins. I have no objection to this point."

Discuss with God... Uzov and Maier ignored such opinions at the same time. That is not something that ordinary people can do, and no matter how high their achievements are, they still belong to the category of 'ordinary people'.

At this moment, Lin suddenly added: "By the way, in fact, you don't have to deliberately save the funds. Because after the bank is officially in operation, they will pay back the initial construction costs, and I am not the one who pays for it." Money. Future construction in other places should also follow this pattern. This is to minimize the possibility of outsiders controlling the bank. After all, the bank is essentially a temple of the goddess of gold coins. And this is what I drew A draft."

Lin unfolded the water mirror technique screen in the small living room and showed several sketches he had drawn. Specifically refer to the grand and luxurious architectural style of some big banks with a history in Europe and America. Of course, exquisite sculptures and pictures are also indispensable as decorations in the hall.

On the one hand, it is also because this style is closer to Midi's original style, which is easier for people to accept. If a building with a style that is too out of the way suddenly comes, people may be worried that it is the temple of the evil god, the kind that intends to lure people into it and concoct it. Therefore, in terms of style design, it is good to be safe, and it is best to be safe.
