Magic Tower Starry Sky

After seeing off a group of astrologers who were fooled and couldn't find the north, Lin Tan sat on the classical sofa chair in the living room, and put his legs on the chair.

Today's event was not entirely a reaction on the spot. There are many things that I have thought about and said in advance, and today I just picked the situation to say it. Even so, it was not easy to deal with that old man.

Master Spiller is not as easy to be fooled as those group of inexperienced lads. When talking to such a person, there should be no inconsistency, or even some unreasonable content.

If you say the wrong thing, maybe you won't be washed up on the spot, but your plan will be in vain. Because they will quietly put your opinion in the sidelines, and never ask again. And he couldn't even figure out how he died in battle.

However, this time, when the master left, he only said that he would consider it, and did not say whether he agreed or disagreed. This made Lin feel that there was no score at all. These veterans have long known how to hide their expressions so that no one can read them. So someone can only say to himself: Do your best and obey the destiny.

After taking a short breath, Kaya appeared. She had been busy all morning, and she just came to an end just now, so she hurriedly came to find her teacher with a handful of gold coins.

"Teacher, teacher, there is a lot of bad money in the kir (gold coins) collected yesterday."

Bad money, bad money with insufficient content. If it was on Earth, this thing would actually be counterfeit money. However, there is no common legal currency in the Lost World. Every country, even large enough organizations, will mint three kinds of coins: gold, silver, and copper. And when necessary, the coins will also be melted back into metal ingots and reused for other purposes.

And some poor and crazy countries, or organizations with crooked minds, will mint such insufficient coins, which are called bad money in the market. Although bad money can be circulated, official organizations will accept and use it, but because the proportion of content is difficult to judge, and there is no set rule on how to convert it, so the people do not collect bad money to avoid disputes. This is where the term 'bad money' comes from.

It is also easy to identify bad money. If the content is insufficient, naturally the weight will be different from the coins within the specification. However, the craftsmanship of alloys in the Lost World is not excellent, or alloys are secret skills passed down by master craftsmen, so naturally they will not be used in the casting of a large number of coins.

Therefore, in order to make up for the size that the coin should have, other metals are added and cast together. The result is that one piece of east and west is like a patch, and obviously different metals are used to piece together a coin. This can be seen simply by looking at it with the eyes. Coupled with the abnormal oxidation of coins, these judgments can easily separate bad money from good money relative to 'bad money'.

What Kaya brought over was obviously coins that could be classified as bad money. Obviously it should be a gold coin, but there are verdigris bumps. This is a coin with insufficient content of gold and copper. The total number is not small, about twenty pieces. But Lin first asked: "How much did you charge in total yesterday?"

Take out the paper ledger, this is a habit long before entering the Tower of the Great Sage. Kaya turned to the latest page, which of course used the accounting method derived from the earth. She said: "A total of 513 kiels have been received. Among them, 122 are good money, 370 are good money, and 21 are bad money."

Fine money refers to those high-quality coins minted by great empires with obvious features and guaranteed content and materials. Some particular people or organizations are only willing to trade with fine money. Therefore, the attitude of most people when they receive fine money is that they will save it specially.

The general use is to use good money, but bad money... To be honest, this thing is rewarded to ordinary people, and they will be disgusted by them. Therefore, the attitude of most magicians towards bad money is to melt it away and separate it into the type of metal it should be.

However, today Kaya brought these more than 20 bad money, and it was not a question of how to deal with it. Instead, it explained that in yesterday's lecture, someone used such a method to fish in troubled waters. It doesn't have to be a magician, because Lin didn't limit that only magicians can participate.

Thinking about the scene yesterday, would there only be more than 500 people? In other words, in fact, many people did not give money. But I can't blame others. The tavern was crowded with people, and the upper limit was less than 200 people.

Although some mages float in mid-air, or stand on the wall or ceiling. Even so, the number of five hundred people was not reached. Most of the people were still crowded in the street outside the tavern, unable to get in, so it was no wonder that these people didn't pay listening fees.

After thinking for a while, Lin said to Kaya: "The bad money is kept in the same place, and when there is enough, it will be melted together and separated. If you bring bad money to pay fees in the future, you will be charged the same. Anyway, the most we can do is put The gold part is purified, and then directly use a whole lump of gold to trade with others. However, we should not publicize the fact that we have received bad money, so as not to receive such things all the time."

In order to promote the P language, if Lin hadn't held the idea of ​​adding and subtracting to subsidize the family, and if it was completely free, it would make people suspicious. He really wanted to teach for free. I just hope that more people will come to learn, so that I can live in Midi for the rest of my life, even if I get another Nintendo Famicom.

So for things like collecting bad money, just turn a blind eye and close one eye. Besides, I Keir can only be regarded as a small amount of money for most official magicians. But people other than magicians don't necessarily think so. If you expect magicians to actively learn the programming language and forbid others to learn it, it will be contrary to the original intention.

In fact, groups other than magicians are Lin's target range. And for these people, a class of about two hours would cost one gold coin, which might be quite a burden. Instead of specializing these people and dividing them out to be used as the basis for other charging methods, it is better to treat them as ignoring the small actions of these people from the beginning.

At first glance, it may seem like a disadvantage. But in terms of human nature, those who take advantage of others and still want to make progress in their mentality are, after all, a minority. Most people hide and hide, for fear of being known by others, and feel somewhat guilty in their hearts. Verbally, of course, it is necessary to rationalize one's behavior and to be justified, so that these sneaky things can be done.

As long as this feeling exists, maybe these people will continue to take advantage of it, but there will be no day when they will do everything right. Unless it is the kind of great favor that is owed, the kind that cannot be repaid without death. So in the end, if you choose to do one thing and not do the other thing, it's another matter.

After setting the tone for this kind of thing in the future, as soon as she explained it to Kaya, she nodded obediently to show her understanding. It's not like a stingy housekeeper who cares about these little money.

Just as Kaya was about to leave, Harumi ran in and shouted, "Teacher, teacher, there's another guest here."

"What are you in a hurry for? Your teacher, I don't have to hide from my creditors, and I don't know how to run away. What are you doing in such a hurry." Thinking of the unpleasant past, Lin said to the frizzy girl.

The blond girl who was scolded quickly stopped, straightened her messy hair, straightened her skirt, pretended to be a lady, and said, "Teacher, it's Mr. Shure Ion. He said It was the chairman who wanted to see you and sent a carriage over."

It seems that it was for the purpose of conveying the proposal of the establishment of the Magic Academy, which was entrusted by the great magician Grinwen, until today the old man was free. The carriages have all been sent, and it seems that they will not leave until they are filled with people.

Of course, it is also possible that the content of the lecture last night scared the old man. After all, it is so obvious to break the foundation of astrologers. For a chairman who thinks about the overall situation of Xijia District all day long, it is unlikely that he will not react at all. In addition to calling the person who caused the trouble to grab the eggs, stand at attention and report, depending on the situation, the person may also be handed over as a sacrifice to calm external anger.

In short, when a child gets into trouble, it is a matter of course to seek parental support. It's just that the parents will support it behind the scenes, or add another meal of fried shredded pork with bamboo shoots, it's not known. The ecology of Lost Land is difficult to compare with a certain period of time on Earth. So many things, Lin is groping, trying to find a way to adapt.

"Kaya, remember to take that small bucket back to Mr. Lois. UU Reading www.uukanshu.comThe house will be handed over to you to take care of it. I probably won't come back for lunch at noon, so you can take care of it yourself. By the way, Those two dogs would take them outside the city for a walk when they had time. There are no monsters coming to die these days, and it seems that they have gained a lot of fat. I prefer to eat lean meat, too fat is not good."

Hearing this, the two girls had the same expressions, puffed up their cheeks, and looked at their teacher with dissatisfaction. After Lin explained the matter jokingly, he followed Shure Ion, who came to pick him up, to the middle tower, where the president, Chengguo Eaton, was located.

Same small conference room. It's just that this time there are no other big boss-level figures except the president himself.

There is a dedicated waiter who serves Elf flower tea to Lin who is seated.

It's not that coffee is not favored by the president, but that if no one can make it, no matter how good the coffee is, it will be useless. Then I heard that the chairman spoiled several pots of coffee, and there were not many coffee beans, so now the old man has given up letting the waiters around him learn how to cook well. If he really wants to satisfy his hunger, or before performing any magic that requires concentration, he will personally visit Lin's mansion.

As for directly asking other people's apprentices to come over, Midi is not in the mood for such a thing. If it is a servant, or an ordinary waiter, forget it. But Kaya is a serious, registered apprentice under the command of magician Gabrash Tripwood. If such an identity is casually transferred to other magicians, it is not a good record.

Different from the past, always straight to the point and go straight to the topic. Recently, when Lin came to meet the chairman, the old man would always gossip about the family for a while and care about it before getting into the topic. This kind of fawning and wooing is quite obvious, and it is even more desirable for those who want to hug their thighs. So the two flattered each other so hypocritically.
