Chapter 87 Black Isles Chamber of Commerce
Hearing the prompt from Chenxi, Lu Yang suddenly felt a stern and asked quickly: "Galaxy Standard Energy? Is it in the Black Islands Chamber of Commerce or the noble leader next to him?"
"If you look closely, the center of the galaxy's standard energy dissipation should be located in the building called Tasir Castle!"
Lu Yang immediately became interested and immediately turned to look towards the city center of Tasier, in the direction of Tasier Castle.
After a closer look, he really found that even over the Tasir Castle during the day, a dim white light column could still be vaguely seen shooting towards the sky, very similar to the white light emitted by the high-tech creation of the Galaxy Federation when it was activated.
Staring at the faint white light, Lu Yang's first reaction was:
Galaxy Federation Standard Energy!
Someone is using Galaxy Federation Standard Energy!
This is the first time Lu Yang has seen someone other than himself using the Galaxy Standard Energy in his interstellar journey for a long time!
Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself down first.
Since there is the standard energy of the Galaxy, he will go to explore this Tasir Castle no matter what!
However, there is no rush.
After all, the beauty of Xuefeng "disasters the country and the people" is there. If it really starts fighting in Tasir Castle for the same reason, the lives of several people should be worry-free, but I'm afraid there is no time to visit this alien city, and we have to embark on the journey of escape as soon as possible.
The existence of ancient relics has made him realize that a laser cannon alone is not enough to make him do whatever he wants in the Holy Empire.
With the lessons of the Hongmen Banquet at Medoc Castle, Lu Yang thought for a moment, planned to change his strategy, first collect some information from other places in this big city, and then learn about the current situation of the North Wind Kingdom. After knowing oneself and the enemy, finally consider going to the castle of the King of the North Wind Kingdom to find out.
In this way, even if the fight starts again in the end, you won’t miss any important information when you run away.
The first step is to go and visit this mysterious Black Islands Chamber of Commerce first!
...
The Black Islands Chamber of Commerce should be the only high-end building in the entire Holy Empire so far, making Lu Yang feel pretty good.
The entire building is divided into five floors, each floor is about 700 to 800 square meters in size, with an estimated building area of 4,000 square meters, which is equivalent to the size of a modern medium and large supermarket. The main materials of the building are wood beams and basalt stone cut into neat shapes.
Like other sacred empire buildings seen by Lu Yang, thanks to the low gravity environment, there are very few columns used for support in the lobby of each floor of this high-rise building. The locals used wood and stone to create an open interior space like modern reinforced concrete buildings.
The bright hall that can accommodate hundreds of people without realizing it, the long counters and floors made of neat wooden boards, as well as more than a dozen receptionists wearing uniforms, all give people an absolutely atmospheric shock.
After pushing open the thick wooden door and entering the interior of the chamber of commerce, Lu Yang saw this lobby that looked like an oversized classical cafe.
But what's strange is that in the large first-floor hall of this building, there are only a few waves of customers standing sporadically, and there are nearly 20 staff sitting behind the counter on standby.
"Connelia, you said that the Black Islands Chamber of Commerce is so large and there are only a few customers in normal times. Wouldn't you lose money?"
After hearing Lu Yang's inquiry, Connelia smiled and said, "The Black Islands Chamber of Commerce has the ability to mobilize resources throughout the continent. The exotic goods here are not affordable by the untouchables. Don't you see that there are very few customers here, but at least one of the dozen customers are real nobles."
Lu Yang looked carefully and found that among these customers, there was really no lower class untouchables, and the most time was a "noble temporary worker" like Connelia.
Moreover, even those nobles, their identities are probably not as simple as ordinary entourage knights.
Lu Yang noticed that among these people, there was a noble girl with a black-long Naoki hair style. Her height was a little shorter than Xue Feng, who had "heightened outside". According to the standards of the Holy Empire, she was definitely considered a top noble.
The black straight girl is not only eye-catching in height, but also has a typical oriental appearance, with very delicate facial features, which is very different from the Western-oriented appearance of the North Wind.
Seeing this noble girl who was not much taller than her, Xue Feng couldn't help but be attracted by her eyes. However, this noble girl with a look of a very arrogant expression did not notice Lu Yang and her party, but went directly to the second floor under the leadership of the entourage knight and a chamber of commerce untouchable staff.
At this time, Connelia continued to introduce: "Not only the local nobles, but almost all the nobles of the North Wind Kingdom will come to the Black Islands Chamber of Commerce to purchase products from various nobles in the mainland. For example, those who send untouchables to run errands are mostly local nobles; and those who come here to discuss business in person are generally foreign nobles. Almost every single business negotiated by the Black Islands Chamber of Commerce can compare with the tax revenue of ordinary little nobles for several months."
Lu Yang understood that this Black Islands Chamber of Commerce was not the retail store he imagined, but more like a wholesale market.
And it is a high-end wholesale market with a membership system that implements one-to-one VIP services.
This is a bit like the high-end private banks on the earth, but they are not selling financial products, but foreign trade goods.
When Lu Yang heard that he could buy almost any product in the mainland here, he immediately became interested: "Can you sell things here? Or can you only buy things?"
"In theory, it is OK to sell and buy. After all, the Black Islands merchants are the only organization in the entire Holy Empire that has the ability to conduct large-scale cross-regional trade. They also need to collect local specialties from various nobles."
"Then what should I do now? Do I just look for their staff?"
Connelia looked at the one-shoulder backpack behind Lu Yang and advised: "The Black Islands Chamber of Commerce usually only accepts large orders. If the total amount of a business is too small, they will not accept it. After all, determining the transaction price, completing the delivery of goods, and verifying the value of the currency is not a simple task."
"What a big business, here is a big business?"
"It is generally worth at least 5 standard gold coins, which can be considered a big business for them."
Seeing that Lu Yang was still confused, Connelia, who had accepted the setting that the two of them had extremely lacked common sense in life, took out a inferior silver coin minted by Earl of Medoc from her pocket and explained: "The standard gold coin is probably so big, but it is made of pure gold, and it does not have such severe wear and tear like this Medoc silver coin."
Lu Yang looked at the silver Medoc coins in Connelia's hand and found that they were about the same size as the one-yuan coin on the earth. According to this size, the total weight of gold coins of the same size can be about half an ounce (14 grams). According to the standards of the earth, the value is about 5,000 yuan.
The standard for the size of gold coins is actually similar to mobile phones. They are formulated based on the size of a person's palm, as convenient as possible and not easy to lose. Therefore, whether it is the Holy Empire or the East and West countries in the history of the earth, the diameters of mainstream precious metal coins are generally between 15mm and 30mm, and there will be no big deviation.
In Lu Yang's backpack, there is a piece of leftover gold nuggets from Eternal Night World, about 100 grams, and it is more than 5 ounces. It should be more than enough to buy some interesting things here.
So he smiled and said, "No problem, I still have the capital to do this business!"
Gold is a heavy metal with ultra-high atomic numbers.
In nature, gold is produced by heavy nuclear fusion at the end of the life of a stellar, so it is very rare no matter what normal planet in the Milky Way. In the Holy Empire, gold is no less precious than the Earth.
When Connelia heard Lu Yang's words, she looked at Lu Yang's not big backpack again with a surprised look.
Is it true that there are standard gold coins inside?
