total war rise of empire

Chapter 114 Banning Gold Currency
The successful upgrade of the level 3 iron smelting room not only allows the construction of siege vehicles, but also gives Lei Zihao an additional 3 military technology points!
In addition to the military power technology points accumulated in the previous two levels, Lei Zihao already has a full six military power technology points!
Military technology points are limited technologies that can be provided by the consumption exchange system in the total war system. After the completion of the level 3 ironworks, a few unremarkable military technologies appeared in Lei Zihao's military technology exchange list!

Lei Zihao couldn't help but think of the fact that after seeing those low-level military technologies, the independent research and development didn't waste any military technology points. I wonder if he can continue to independently research and develop this time?

[Shield Resistance (Military Science and Technology Requirement 3): On the battlefield, when the infantry stays still, the impact damage from the enemy cavalry will be reduced. Arms with large shields learn to use the 'tortoise formation' and open the 'tortoise formation' Can reduce the casualty ratio caused by the shooting of enemy arrows.

Unification of Military Orders (Military Science and Technology Requirement 3): The chance of mercenaries in the army "defecting" decreases. 】

These two extra military technologies are too low for Lei Zihao!
Needless to say, shield defense, Lei Zihao has already handed it over to the soldier instructor Antonio, and the soldiers who have come out now have basically learned this trick, and there is no need to exchange it!

The unification of military orders was when Lei Zihao set up the servant army, he completed the organizational planning and unified the military orders!
These adjustments and progress that still needed to be made in ancient times are really not difficult problems for Lei Zihao from the 21st century. After all, Lei Zihao was a mercenary, and he knows more about military affairs than those of this era. There are more generals!

Therefore, not long after these two technologies appeared, the words Completed appeared on the back, and Lei Zihao once again completed a "feat" that did not consume a little bit of military power's technology points. Unfortunately, Lei Zihao did not have the slightest sense of accomplishment this time...

"Hey, I hope that the military technology that will appear next time will be something I don't know, otherwise, these accumulated military power technology points will be wasted..."

Different from civilization science and technology points, military power science and technology points have no other function except for the military technology provided by the exchange system, while civilization technology points are non-consumable technology points. When a certain amount is reached, people's livelihood technology of a certain stage will be automatically activated, according to The explanation of the total war system, when the civilization technology points reach a certain number, the entire total war system will be evolved!
However, today’s Lei Zihao only knows that upgrading to a higher-level college building can increase a little civilization and technology points. This college building is still the only one. The upgrade of the pavilion only reaches 3 points, and even the lowest-level Minsheng Science and Technology Long Brick needs 3 points of Civilization Technology to open it!

Obviously, the real way to obtain civilization science and technology points is not simply to rely on the upgrade of college buildings!
Therefore, Lei Zihao can only forget about this point of civilization and technology that he can't figure out now. The most important thing for him is upgrading and violent soldiers. Let's talk about other things when she grows up...

A few days after the completion of the Level 3 ironworks, the Level 3 library, which was also activated by Lei Zihao in accelerated construction mode, was announced to be completed!

The moment the library was built, Lei Zihao got a notification sound for the attribute promotion of Zhuge Liang, the clerical follower in the library, and Zhuge Liang got an extra attribute of a science lover!
At first glance, this attribute is useless, but it only increases Zhuge Liang's love for the study of objective things, and develops his brain circuit a little bit, that is to say, makes Zhuge Liang a little smarter...

However, it is shown in the system's remarks that science lovers are the prerequisites for the appearance of rare affairs officers like scientists!
He is a real scientist, not a scholar who studied eight-part essays and philosophy in ancient times!

This can be considered good news...

Before the level 3 library is upgraded, the level 3 stone brick avenue and the level 3 ground drinking water channel have been completed, and the conventional upgrade buildings, only the arena is left unfinished!

This also made Lei Zihao confirm that the construction period of the upgraded buildings from the original buildings is much shorter than that built out of thin air!
When only the arena was left as a conventional building, those additional individual level 3 buildings were also built one by one. The mint that Lei Zihao was most looking forward to was completed first!

Lei Datou can finally start casting!Moreover, Lei Zihao can also collect more seigniorage, which is invisible, and it is all manipulated on the currency, which will not cause any fluctuations in public opinion!
After all, the exquisite shapes and patterns are worth the missing quality of gold, silver and precious metals!
After the mint was completed, Lei Zihao carried out a large-scale restructuring of the entire currency system of Longhan City!
The mint mainly produces three kinds of currency, one is a small copper coin, which is a round copper coin, which is similar to the original copper plate, but the copper content in it is inevitably reduced by a little bit...

Small copper coins are the most basic currency and the currency most commonly used by civilians!
The higher level is the small silver coin, which is much smaller than the original silver coin, but the design is more exquisite. The official exchange rate given by Lei Zihao is that 10 small copper coins can be exchanged for one small silver coin!

Above the small silver coin is the big silver coin!

It is said to be a big silver coin, but it is actually not much bigger than the original silver coin. It has a delicate profile bust of Lei Zihao printed on it. This kind of big silver coin will belong to the most valuable currency under Lei Zihao's rule in the future...

As for gold and gold coins, they have naturally become precious metals that can only be imported by officials!
The ratio of gold resources converted into gold coins is very high, Lei Zihao will never allow gold to circulate in the market, he wants to collect all the gold to use for upgrades and violence!

The most important thing is that gold coins are too valuable for common people, and only merchants will use them for bulk trade. Canceling gold coins and replacing them with large silver coins whose value is far less than gold coins has no effect on the lives of common people. It's not a big problem, the big deal is just to carry some more thunderbolts...

The metal coins produced by the mint are very exquisite, corrosion-resistant, and easy to carry, which facilitates the lives of the people. In addition, Lei Zihao is not a black-hearted businessman, so he infinitely reduces the precious metal content of the coins...

Lei Zihao is only earning a seigniorage. Whether it is a big silver coin, a small silver coin or even a small copper coin, the precious metal content is more conscientious!

One big silver coin equals 10 small silver coins equals 100 small copper coins!

The completion of the mint allowed Lei Zihao to truly ban the circulation of gold coins in Longhan City and Megara City!
