X-Dragon Era-Chapter 646 - s So Exaggerated_3

Indeed, in only a short span of time, Chu Rui's mouth fell open, her eyes shining as she said, "Right... since we have so much silver, why can't we issue our own currency? It's just that..."

She stopped mid-sentence, her expression dimming as she frowned and said, "Issuing currency isn't a problem, we have enough silver for backing, but the current issue is, how can we make everyone accept our issued currency?"

"Hehe..." Xin Yun said with a smile, looking at Chu Rui and speaking calmly, "I've said that our goal is to monopolize the entire currency industry, to dominate all money circulation. Once my plan is realized, only our currency will circulate in this world, and all other currencies will withdraw from the stage of circulation, because... by then, the channels for circulation will be in our hands."

Having said this, Xin Yun paused for a moment before continuing, "Making everyone accept our currency is not difficult..."

Turning around, Xin Yun pointed to the outside world and said with a smile, "Do you see? There are Spirit Stones everywhere. Think about it... if we use Spirit Stones to make our currency, would anyone refuse to accept it?"

"Ah!" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Chu Rui's mouth opened wide in shock, and she cried out in astonishment.

In the face of Chu Rui's surprise, Xin Yun walked to the coffee table, and with a flick of his right hand, several coins fell onto the coffee table. On closer inspection, the silver coins differed in size and style, but most importantly, these coins were not made entirely of silver.

Chu Rui carefully picked up one of the coins, inspecting it closely. The coin's outer ring was made of brass, a circular copper ring enclosing a silver ring, with the center containing a square-shaped hole—firstly, to represent the concept 'heaven is round, earth is square', and secondly... such a design also saved a significant amount of silver!

Taking the coin carefully, Chu Rui observed it closely. Upon closer inspection, the coin's surface wasn't smooth but was engraved with the abstract figure of a Giant Dragon. Though it appeared somewhat abstract, anyone who had seen the Steel Giant Dragon would recognize it instantly.

Admiring the coin in her hand, Chu Rui exclaimed in surprise, "My goodness! How was this made? It's simply a work of art! How did you manage to make such coins?"

In response to Chu Rui's inquiry, Xin Yun smiled and began to explain. The coins were not man-made; with current production techniques, it was impossible to create such artistically significant currency. In fact... these coins were all crafted by the Axe Soul using the Chaos Cauldron.

Looking at Chu Rui with a smile, Xin Yun said, "These are called Copper Yuan. The outer circle is copper, the inner circle is silver. Struck, they produce a very distinctive sound, and with the patterns on the surface, I can confidently say that such coins cannot be counterfeited."

Turning the coin in her hand repeatedly, Chu Rui expressed her admiration, "This is exquisite, truly marvelous. With such wonderful coins, I believe everyone would definitely accept them."

Nodding with a smile, Xin Yun picked up a second coin, which had a different design from the first. The copper ring on the outside was very thin, and the square hole had been changed to a small round one. This left a large area of the silver coin's surface, which increased the silver's consumption for the forefront but still looked extremely beautiful.

Upon close examination, besides the coin's shape, the pattern stamped on the surface also changed. A peacock with its tail feathers spread stood proudly atop the coin, and on the back were silhouettes of peacocks in various postures surrounding the central round hole.

Xin Yun gently handed the coin to Chu Rui, smiling as he said, "This is the Silver Yuan. The outer circle is still copper but extremely thin, and the inner side is silver. Because the silver content is quite high, its value is also somewhat higher."

After looking over the coin for a while, Chu Rui agreed with its design. Seeing her agreeable expression, Xin Yun explained, "This is the Silver Yuan. The reason for adding the copper ring is that silver is soft. If coins were made only of silver, they would easily deform. But once paired with the copper ring, the coin's durability significantly increases, impervious to damage by a common blade."

"Yes, yes..." Chu Rui nodded repeatedly, impressed by Xin Yun's explanation, noting that even this detail had been considered, which was enough to make her view him with newfound respect.

Seeing Chu Rui's admiring reaction, Xin Yun continued, "Moreover, these two are only the basic coins, which people will carry in quantity. Hence... the coins have a hole in the center so that they can be strung together with a rope when carried, facilitating counting and making them convenient to carry without loss."

"Bang!" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Chu Rui enthusiastically clapped her hands, her eyes lighting up as she said, "Yes... current coins are solid and can easily fall out of pockets, and they are inconvenient to use, sometimes slipping into crevices and becoming irretrievable."

In response to Chu Rui's praise, Xin Yun shook his head with a smile. Although it seemed extraordinary to Chu Rui, in fact, these were concepts that Xin Yun had directly copied from his first life on Earth, nothing truly remarkable or worth boasting about.

Seeing Xin Yun's indifferent expression, Chu Rui realized for the first time that she could actually hold someone in such high regard. After creating so much, to remain so calm, and even indifferent, such a person was truly a sage!
