Yun'an took Lin Buxian and left the Seabird. There were not many people on the harbor. The loading and unloading workers all went to the dock market to eat and rest.

During the subsequent transaction, Lin Buxian also squeezed a cold sweat for Yunan.

Lin Buxian remembered that Lin Wei had warned him more than once: When you do business on someone else's house, especially when it involves a transaction, you should not come out in person if you don't show up in person.

Bring a few capable people with you for protection, or simply don't bring money. The first time you talk about business, it is the most taboo to reveal your wealth. A little carelessness will cause you to kill.

When Shicai was on the boat, when Yun An took out the golden bean, Lin Buxian was startled in a cold sweat.

If Lin Buxian knew about this, he would definitely not let Yun'an do it. The gold should have been brought by Yun'an from his hometown. The appearance is so ``sexy'' that even Lin Buxian has never had it. ...

You can easily take out a golden bean of this kind of "color", is this person really not afraid of being kidnapped? !

The development after the return was successfully turned into a blessing. Although Lin Buxian could not understand what they said, Lin Buxian was able to judge by the attitude of the two: This is a transaction for both parties.

So that the deputy sent Yun’an away from the Seabird himself, Yun’an held the Western-style tea set, and even though the deputy of the Seabird asked for a nautical chart to take away, the gem was agreed, but Yunanto said I didn't bring that much money, and agreed to trade at the port in front of the Seabird at the ugly time ten days later.

As for Yun'an's proposal to buy sailors, the deputy said that everything on the ship belonged to the Duke of Orly. As Yun'an's offer was very attractive, he needed to ask the captain for a reply.

Yunan knew that this was just an excuse, and immediately took a step back and said, "It's okay if I can't bear the pain, but I hope I can lend me a sailor. I am very interested in sailing and want to hear more."

The deputy said that there was no problem at all, so Yunan took a nautical chart and a set of tea sets to offset the golden bean that was taken away by the deputy. The latter agreed very happily and regarded Yunan Lin Buxian as a distinguished guest. , Personally sent the two off the Seabird.

At dawn, Yunan and the others did not dare to delay. They picked up the horse and quickly returned to the Yunzhai. The two stepped on their saddles and stepped in from the courtyard wall, jumped into the bamboo forest in the inner courtyard, and returned to the bedroom under the cover of the bamboo forest.

Back in the room, Yun An hurriedly disguised Lin Buxian. In order to ensure that his appearance would not change too much next time, Yunan took a picture of Lin Buxian and took a selfie in the mirror.

After packing things, Yun An Lin Buxian breathed a sigh of relief. Yun An asked Lin Buxian to wait a while to bring the horse back so that no one would run along.

Yun An hurried out of the bedroom and walked straight into the bamboo forest that was used to cover before. With the help of his strength, he climbed up the courtyard wall. The two horses outside the wall were still eating grass. Yunan jumped off the courtyard wall and led the two horses.馬廄, return to the bedroom.

Lin Buxian changed the woman’s clothes, Yun’an opened the space and collected everything that shouldn’t be here, flipped over the teacup and poured a glass of water into it, drank it with a "gudonggudong", put down the cup Yunan I patted the position next to it: "Yixi, come."

Lin Buxian sat next to Yun'an, and Yun'an recounted everything that happened on the Seabird today.

Lin Buxian listened with gusto, his eyes flashed with brilliance.

Lin Buxian asked Yun'an: "What is nine-year compulsory education?"

Yunan took the initiative to explain: "In our place, whether boys or girls, as long as they are six years old, they can enter elementary school. Some districts need to go to school for six years, and then the third year...Together, a total of nine years. In the past nine years, the tuition of each child was borne by the state, so it is called compulsory education. After the first graduation, students have to take a nationwide exam, which is called an exam in our place. Only when the score reaches the standard can they study for comparison. It’s probably similar to your... the country’s exam here. The three-year college entrance exam is equivalent to your exam here. You can pass your favorite school, learn professional cultural knowledge, and enter society."

"Can both boys and girls study in this multi-level school?"

"correct."

Lin Buxian showed an expression of envy and asked, "Are all the people on your side... like you, that's amazing, they can speak the words of Fanbang?"

Yun An "rubbed" his nose and said proudly, "Don't look at me like this. I am also very good at our house? The grades I studied at that time are converted to yours. It also has to be a top grade in the Golden Division."

"This is amazing?"

"Of course, I also skipped a level!" If Yun'an had a tail at this time, 80% of it would be swayed into a propeller. Even Blue Star would rarely mention these glorious traces of Yun'an, but in Lin Buxian, In front of him, Yunan could not help but behave more.

Yun An continued: "In Blue Star, children of our generation can basically speak one or two foreign languages. English, the language I just spoke, is a relatively common skill. Many other minor languages ​​also speak , Of course... Chinese is the official language of flower growers. It is also included in textbooks or established by many other countries. In our country, the meaning of learning foreign languages ​​has long changed, and love is the main language. Many People learn foreign languages ​​mainly to have fun and see the outside world. I belong to the category of language talents, and I don’t really have much effort in English."

Lin Buxian received the message Yun'an told him, was silent for a moment, and turned back to the topic of Seabird, and said, "In the future, I still don't want to "show" the rich. If you didn't say you want to buy their gems, I'm really worried They will kidnap tickets."

"I know, I actually thought of this, so when I took out the golden beans, I told him I only brought this much. Next time I will be more careful..."

"Well, if Xiaolin Mansion is completed, if you are busy in the future, it is always necessary to develop the habit of protecting yourself."

"Yeah. By the way, Yixi, there are two...I want to ask you to help."

"what's it?"

"You tell me... how many money houses does Lin Mansion have in Zhouzhou? Do you have the ability to empty the gold market in Zhouzhou for a while?"

"Lin's bank has two banks in Zhouzhou, one in the east of the city, one in the west of the city, and the adjacent state capital...I mean there are eight banks that can help the state in one day, and there are ten in total. ? Although the state is not, it is the transportation and trading hub of the eastern coastal state capital. You have to tell me what effect your so-called "empty" will achieve? How long?"

"It means that more than 80% of the liquid gold in the city is collected in Lin's bank, and it will be sealed and not circulated. It will take several months to release this money."

Lin did not envy the moment, and replied easily: "It is not difficult. The circulation of gold is inherently poor. Because the value is too high, a little wear or loss will cause both parties to suffer more losses, so the market generally defaults to circulation. Silver will be converted into gold when it is in the warehouse for storage, saving space. If you only control the gold in the state for a few months, these banks are enough."

Yun'an raised his eyebrows. What Lin Buxian said was not the prototype of the "gold standard" of Blue Star's later generations? It seems that the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.

Hearing Lin Buxian's reply, Yun'an was a little happy, but at the same time worried: Lin Mansion's ability is too strong, although there are also times when the traffic is not developed in this era, and the capital circulation speed cannot be compared with Blue Star.

But even so, ?zhou is a trade port, and the Lin Mansion can control it if it wants to control it. Its power can be seen. No ruler will allow such a power to survive for long among the people. It seems that the speed of Xiaolin Mansion is going to accelerate .

"What's the second thing?" Lin Buxian asked.

"The second thing is that I need you to raise one hundred thousand taels of silver for me within ten days."

So far, Lin Buxian understood, and asked, "Do you want to buy that gem with silver?"

"Correct."

"Why? At the same price, the manpower and material resources required to ship silver are more than ten times that of gold. Can we just give them the gold?"

Yun An "hehe", "showing" a thief expression, and said to Lin Buxian: "I tell you...I am determined to get that gem. After hundreds of years, that kind of appearance, that kind of purity Rubies... are old and valuable! Maybe astronomical numbers can be auctioned. And gem culture is not an oriental tradition. Think about it unearthed in the East, or someone passed a ruby ​​like this. Once it comes out, It will definitely cause a sensation from all parties! With this gimmick, the auction price may be doubled, and then it will be able to make foreigners a lot of money!"

Lin Buxian seemed to understand, but he couldn't help being amused when he listened to Yunan's "old value, old value" with the accent.

Yun'an Meifei's "color" dance popularized Lin Buxian's "gold standard", and then told Lin Buxian: "Wait for hundreds of years, or after Yan's step into modern civilization, due to the special nature of gold, this The planet is very likely to develop into a gold-based financial order. At that time, gold will be the first-level'just need' of every country. Understand? Countries with large gold reserves, on the world stage, the waist is hard! To be smaller... In the future, the price difference between gold and silver can be more than ten times, maybe twenty times, thirty times. In other words, this is called a strategic reserve! I can't let Yan's gold flow from my place abroad. Anyway, I want gems, and I don’t want to give gold. After a while, there will be ships from other countries. I want to search for what I have. I can use the silver ticket to settle the settlement. Silver settlement will do."
