The correct way to open the elf

Chapter 123 Cattail City Monetary System

“Industry is a digital thing, don’t forget to involve Theodore’s mathematics laboratory to provide you with data support.

It would be best to find some students from the math class to fill in your team, so that you can more easily understand the changes in the camp from the data."

"Okay, teacher. We'll remember it."

"Well, if the goblins want to trade, you two will make the decision. Adjust the quantity of goods for sale according to our war preparedness plan and the production capacity of the camp.

Remember to hand me the receipt after you finish. This is my homework for you."

The goblins finally compromised. Not only that, they also wanted to clear out the goods they brought on the spot in an attempt to load more cheap high-end goods. But unfortunately, the camp really didn't like their stuff.

It is also impossible for the goblins to clean their own salt at a price that is much cheaper than the salt in the camp. The price they purchase is too high. If they sell it on the spot, they will have to sell it at a price that is much cheaper than the salt in the camp, so they will suffer a huge loss.

The goblins had no choice but to take away their own salt, as well as a few fine salts and several sets of exquisite porcelain and glassware.

The goblins were very depressed about this, but Feng Yu was extremely happy because he finally had money in his hands. He no longer had to use copper coins to press tokens to pay the workers.

The tokens can only be redeemed through the market dominated by him, which seriously hinders the development of small businesses in the camp because he cannot force the halfling farmers to accept tokens to sell grain and vegetables.

However, goblin silver coins must not be sold in the camp. After all, in Feng Yu's eyes, those coins were too crude, and some even had very different weights.

And because goblin caravans trade on a large scale, the face value of goblin silver coins is generally larger, that is to say, goblin silver coins are all very large.

Feng Yu was shaking the goblin silver coin that was half the size of his palm in his hand. He felt that the goblins designed this thing probably to wait until their weapons were used up so that they could swing this silver coin to hit people.

Feng Yu had already designed the camp's currency system, but as a top programmer, he didn't have a deep understanding of business, and the so-called currency system was nothing more than designing some silver coins.

The silver coin that Feng Yu wanted to design was designed according to the purchasing power of gold and silver in the Green Continent. He was too lazy to care about issues like stamp duty and fire consumption. The purpose of making silver coins was to facilitate commercial circulation.

He controls industrial commodities and has the capital to do whatever he wants.

In his design, silver coins are divided into two types. One is the smallest denomination, with a purchasing power equivalent to about ten yuan of RMB and a weight of two grams. It is the most basic silver coin.

The face value is not designed to be smaller because it cannot be made any smaller. If it is any smaller, it will be lost if it falls on the ground. Also, silver is too soft, and a silver coin that is too thin will bend if force is applied.

The second type is larger, weighing 20 grams each, which is about half the weight of a goblin silver coin, and has a purchasing power equivalent to about RMB 100.

Above that are gold coins or silver bars, which are equivalent to ten thousand. This is still in the planning stage and will not be manufactured yet, because small-denomination currencies must be manufactured first to meet the daily transaction needs of the camp.

The silver coin, which is equivalent to the purchasing power of ten yuan, has the largest circulation. The front of the coin is a lush cattail, which is the symbol of Cattail City and must be on the market. The back of the coin is the Elvish word "Ten" surrounded by cattail ears.

The silver coin with the purchasing power of one hundred yuan weighs twenty grams and is much larger than the other. The front of the coin is the most common tree in the Elf Forest, which is the kind Feng Yu saw when he woke up in this world. The back of the coin is the Elf word "one hundred" surrounded by vines.

In order to facilitate transactions, Feng Yu also designed a small copper coin with a pattern of a snake vine branch with fruits on the front and the elf word "one" surrounded by cloud patterns on the back.

Feng Yu didn't like the silver coins that were measured in units, so at the beginning of the design, he thought of this currency system based on numbers, using the weight of the silver coin to match the purchasing power represented by the number to achieve this design concept.

The camp had a steam press and Clarence could make exquisite high-strength alloy templates, which provided the conditions for pressing refined and modernized currency. After all, the hardness of silver was not high, and no matter how poor Feng Yu's press was, it would always be no problem to press silver coins.

Therefore, the silver coins designed by Feng Yu all imitate the vertical patterns and text systems of modern Chinese coins, which are completely different from the ancient mold silver coins minted on the Green Continent.

Not only is the pattern three-dimensional and difficult to copy, but the outer ring also has anti-destruction patterns and interspersed Elvish characters to prevent it from being deliberately cut smaller.

After the style of the silver coin was pressed out, not only did the maker Clarence like it very much, even the elves who usually didn't like money were very fond of this silver coin with industrial beauty and extreme standardization.

Feng Yu left a set of samples sealed in glass for each of the big guys in the camp as a collection, and then he waved his hand and used the rest to exchange for tokens for the workers.

The workers were naturally very happy. Although the tokens had never stopped them from buying things, they were ultimately just a code that did not match their actual value. How could they be as happy as holding real money in their hands?

After distributing the silver coins to the workers, Feng Yu immediately cancelled the free sales points in the camp and rented out the sales points to recover funds for himself.

After all, he couldn't collect taxes in the camp, as that would be too unreasonable and illegal. He could only increase the way to recycle money in this way. He believed that there would always be smart people who would rent shops and become the first batch of self-employed individuals in the camp.

Not only that, Feng Yu also immediately started the construction of the cross-shaped commercial street that he had reserved in the residential area. In the future, this residential area would not only have fruit, vegetable, grain and oil shops, but also wine shops and bathhouses to provide convenience for people's lives.

As for whether a "certain club" would develop in the future, that was not something Feng Yu could stop. However, if that time really happened, it would also mean that the Pupu City Camp had developed into a comprehensive metropolis.

Of course, this is only a big city relative to the Green Continent. After all, there are no high-rise buildings in this world. It is impossible to reach the population density of China's first-tier cities.

The workers were very happy after receiving the money, but before they could stay happy for long, they found out that the vegetable stall in the camp had gone bankrupt, and they were very puzzled.

They knew that this was a business that Feng Yu hired someone to run, so they naturally came to Feng Yu, because they were full-time workers now, and without the fruit, vegetable, grain and oil market, how would they survive!

Could Feng Yu let them monopolize the money and prevent it from circulating? Why did he fail? Wasn't it to spread the new currency throughout the camp? !
