Demon Lord

By the way, King Sally, let them help me bring a few more periodicals when you have time. It's not interesting just about magic. I want to read others. I will pay for the points.

Morals pointed to the periodicals and newspapers on the wooden bookcase next to them. The newspapers of Karen Times in the last two months were listed there, and they were obviously flipped frequently. Sally had already started to feel numb to the word points, so she nodded in agreement and left the 19th floor.

When the monarch of the Karen Kingdom walked in the magic tower, the dragons he met would greet him friendly. Seeing one of the familiar green dragons, Sally greeted: Gloria! We are going to the entertainment area. Is it?

Yeah, are you going too?

Gloria is petite and looks like a little underage girl. She is wearing a dark green short jacket and holds a bag of integral coins that are commonly used in the tower.

Sally replied, I want to see what you're all playing. Are you going to the ball?

Yeah, today we have a match with our 'Force of Nature' team, I'm going to cheer for them! Opposite is 'Rock Force', oh, that's Black Dragon's team...

Sally followed her into the half-plane of the Entertainment Area, and found that there were many areas inside. When the Sanatorium was just opened, no one came here. But now it seems that all the dragon members are staying here. There is a group of dragons warming up in the football field, because there is an enchantment in the field to ensure that they do not use their magical abilities. Everyone is sitting in the seats outside and watching.

Gloria pulled her into the stands, and then Sally followed the group of dragons to watch the whole game—although the dragons can't use magic, they are definitely outstanding in physical fitness and technology, so the game is very interesting to watch high. There were more than 20 dragons watching on the sidelines, and everyone cheered louder and louder.

In the end, Gloria bet on the Green Dragon team to win, and she got points coins with 1.2 times the odds. When she was excited, she took Sally to play mahjong...

After Gloria made a few small wins with her good luck, Sally couldn't help but play a few rounds. As a result, her calculation ability was obviously inferior to that of the Dragon Clan, and she lost several rounds in a row. When he was disheartened, he suddenly found out by luck and made a fortune.

Gloria howled excitedly, and Sally sweated nervously. At this moment, she has experienced the excitement of these games, and her mind is filled with the urge to do it again...

However, she finally controlled such thoughts. After saying goodbye to Gloria, Sally came to the point exchange office with a scepter in her hand. something to say...

This guy, how did he come up with so many new things?

In my impression, Roddy is a commander who is good at planning and always looking for the best solution. But after rising to the level of prime minister, it is absolutely impossible to just plan. The regulations and implementation details of each policy are definitely not things that are innately known. What Rody implements is like a mature plan after countless evolutions. And right now, these addictive games for the dragon clan, Rody is even easier to come by... He just provided a few ideas and venues, which made the existence of the first level of the dragon clan lords unable to hold back, and exchanged knowledge for integral coins of no value .

Perhaps only this kind of genius can truly make the Karen Kingdom stronger.

Walking out of the entertainment area, after experiencing the excitement of gambling games, Sally glanced at the magic clock in the tower, and suddenly realized that there was an important meeting to attend in ten minutes, so she hurried to the core on the 21st floor room.

After entering the door, the high elf Edith was staring at a plan that had just been sent in front of the desk in a daze. Sally knew that Rhodey would not allow Edith to participate in political affairs, but now this incident seemed to be an accident. She walked over: What is this? What new ideas did he come up with?

Glancing at the plan, Sally read aloud: National credit system and currency? What do you mean?

The Prime Minister asked me to read this plan and answer some questions,

Speaking of which... it's mostly about High Elf currency.

Edith was obviously in a trance, and Sally wondered why she was like this: What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?

No... I just find it hard to believe why the Prime Minister knows so many things. If the High Elves had such an economic system back then, how could...

She felt that she was talking too much, so she stopped quickly, and smiled embarrassedly: The plan is here, Your Majesty, please take a look. Is there a meeting later? I will prepare the magic circle first.

Sally glanced at the plan curiously, and a few concepts in it made her full of doubts: Issuing currency? Isn't it good to use gold coins? Why use such... low-cost banknotes?

Edith, who was adjusting the crystal wall, replied: During the period of the High Elves, the currency used in the country was gold coins, which were regarded as the hardest 'hard currency'. Because gold is recognized as a rare metal by everyone, it became currency. Qualifications. Later, with the development of magic, magic crystals became a currency similar to gold coins, but they were only circulated in the magic world and had little to do with civilians. At the same time, because of the high quality of magic crystals, there was no definite exchange ratio at all... and What the Prime Minister’s plan means is to issue a paper currency that is worthless in itself, and let the ‘Karen Kingdom Government’ define its value.”

Definition? That means I say how much this piece of paper is worth, how much is it worth?

Sally looked surprised: Isn't this nonsense?

But the more Edith thought about it, the more she felt that the paper money was very powerful, and she patiently explained: So the value of the paper money comes from the national credit behind it, if it's just a hooligan on the street, tell me that there is a piece of paper here, the value is equal to one A gold coin. I won’t believe it. But if the cabinet of the Karen Kingdom told me all this, I would choose to believe it.”

Just like the Prime Minister was able to borrow a huge loan from Rahiman for the war, he borrowed at the beginning with the credit of Efta. Now that Efta has unified the Karen Kingdom, the kingdom's credit must be higher than that of the Karen Kingdom. It was a higher level back then. With the rise of the kingdom's strength, I am afraid that this kind of paper currency will not only circulate in the country in the future, even if it goes to Rahiman, it is estimated that it will become a 'hard currency'!

Sally, who opened her mouth slightly, blinked her eyes: Can people in other countries recognize the value of a piece of paper? It's really hard to imagine.

Edith had been thinking about it for a long time, so she had a general understanding of Roddy's intentions: This banknote can actually be regarded as a commodity, which has the same meaning as the jewelry, bread or artwork you buy. It's just that it can be used as a wide-ranging A trade item in circulation.

Sally stood there thinking for a long time: Isn't that the issuance of a currency that is more convenient than gold coins? But I think it takes a lot of effort to do it. What's the 'Karen Central Bank'... before the bank He told me, but what is the concept of this 'central bank'...

Economic problems are indeed not something that can be explained clearly in a few words. Not to mention Sally, Edith, who has a super-intelligent IQ, also can't see through the wider sky behind the banknotes, and doesn't understand what the central bank will bring.

But the connection of the communication circle made Sally understand that she needed to go to the meeting. She tidied up her makeup and sat in front of the crystal wall. In the picture, the cabinet office in the dragon tower was already full of cabinet nobles, Luo Di Sitting in the middle, looking towards the crystal wall: The signal is fine, so Your Majesty, now let's start today's discussion.

He was wearing a simple black dress, and on the long table in front of him were several stacks of handwritten manuscripts: The statistics of the kingdom have been basically completed recently, and we are currently facing many serious problems... because the two wars have reduced the population The loss is heavy, and it will be fine if there are no natural disasters this year, but if there are any disasters, famine will be the number one problem we have to face.

Sally didn't talk much at the meeting, but occasionally asked questions, and stopped talking after getting Roddy's answer.

This kind of cabinet meeting is held almost every day, and the issues discussed are very complicated-because the kingdom is still in a state of extreme shortage of civil servants, since power is centralized, how to hold the huge kingdom in the hands of the cabinet is a very huge problem.

After the lords of the various territories expressed their submission to the rule of Sally I, the days to come would not be as simple as still eating and drinking in their own territories.

At this time, Luo Di was talking about the specific implementation plan of agricultural reform. Because of Elson's previous research and development and experiments, crops with more than three times higher yields have now been cultivated. These seeds will be extended to the whole country for planting in the future, and the ridge tillage system will also replace the outdated three field system, and the use of manure will also be gradually promoted. In the next three years, at least the resolution of the food problem can be expected.

There is no objection to this within the cabinet. In fact, all the decisions of the current cabinet are basically proposed by Roddy, and finally implemented after a simple modification-not because other nobles dare not object, but because With their level of cognition, there is absolutely no reason to object.

Farming can get more food, why not do it?

The road can make the country gain more wealth, why not repair it?

Not to mention airplanes, ships, and troops. These three things are currently firmly in Rody's hands, while the armies of other nobles have been completely canceled and ordered to be disbanded. Soderol is currently stationed in the imperial city, leaving a batch in the Temple, a batch in Hollier City, and a batch in Elson City. These four core cities respectively occupy the four regions of the Karen Kingdom, collectively referred to as Four Great War Zones.

With the gun barrel in Roddy's hands, the nobles naturally wouldn't do anything else.
