My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1302.5
[Chapter 1274: Crazy consumption, exaggerated purchasing power!]
Quickly taking out the golden beans from his pocket, Liu Zhi handed them over with a happy face.
As the saying goes, antiques in prosperous times are gold in troubled times.
Precious metals inherently have their own value, and they still have considerable purchasing power even in the wasteland.
A golden bean like this is about the size of a fingertip, weighing about 25g.
On earth, the price of gold would be at least over 10,000 yuan, and a meat bun would be enough to kill everyone present.
In various major territories in the wasteland, one golden bean can be exchanged for dry food for 18-25 people.
Four, that is the standard for nearly a hundred people.
However, what surprised the two was that the other party seemed to have never seen gold used as currency for payment.
After taking the golden beans, I looked at them again and again, and finally stepped back in embarrassment.
“I’m sorry, we haven’t used this thing, how about I just give you some more?”
From the very beginning, Tianyuan Territory did not implement the gold standard-linked system, but adopted a similar value-linked method.
Whether it is Tianyuan copper coin or Tianyuan iron coin, it has a certain value in itself.
After the territory’s credit endorsement, it became a currency that can be circulated.
Later, with the further development of the territory, especially after the completion of digital construction, more and more people no longer used copper coins and iron coins, and instead used more convenient identity cards.
All wages will be automatically transferred to the identity card and stored at the end of the working day.
When purchasing items, you only need to click on the credit card machine, similar to the meal card in the university cafeteria, to easily complete the payment process.
I have to say, this is very modern.
If you are teaching a group of indigenous people to use it, it will be an extremely long process, and you must first develop enough trust.
But for a group of modern people who have just traveled through time, all it takes is an announcement to accept it.
“this”
Being forced back by the sailor, Liu Zhi and Pang Pangyuan looked at each other, and for a time they suspected that they had heard wrongly.
Never used Jindouzi to pay?
Isn’t this the hard currency of the New World? Which territory wouldn’t use this for payment?
“Then what did you use?”
Pang Pang Yuan asked subconsciously, and received a natural answer from the other party: “Of course it’s by swiping the card, No, it’s just this card, just swipe it.”
Taking out the ID card from his pocket and flashing it in front of the two of them, the sailor took a step back rather uncomfortably.
Good guy, why do these guys’ reactions seem like they came from ancient times?
Have they never swiped a card on earth? No, who hasn’t used mobile payment in this era?
“We will send you another hundred, is that enough?”
On the other side, the sailor who was pushing the cart also came over and stared at the two of them curiously.
Pay in gold?
It’s really retro, I seem to have only seen it in costume TV series.
They wanted to take it back and show it off to other sailors, but at this critical moment when Tianyuan Territory was establishing its reputation, no one could let their guard down.
If the captain found out that they dared to keep their property secretly, I’m afraid he would have to skin them and deduct at least half a year’s salary!
So, feeling dizzy and carrying three cages of steamed buns, the two of them returned home with a full load.
Seeing all the steamers being snatched away, Song Chunrui and Wang Bi were still a little stunned when they came over.
“What’s wrong? Is their price too high?” Wang Bi frowned. If more than a hundred grams of golden beans can only be exchanged for a hundred meat buns, then the resources they brought may not be enough to buy a guerrilla boat.
Of course, this is indeed the normal price for the New World, and it can even be said to be lower than the normal price.
At this stage, the price of food supplies is obviously much higher than before, and as the reserves of major territories gradually approach the warning line, prices are still rising steadily every day.
“No” Pang Pang Yuan shook his head stupidly, his eyes still looking blankly at the position where the two sailors were standing.
“No?”
Song Chunrui was stunned, and couldn’t help but asked with an ugly face: “Is it possible that you have increased the price of these buns?”
“Price increase?”
Liu Zhi and Pang Pangyuan looked at each other, confused.
“No, I mean these things cost nothing, they gave them away for free.”
“What? Free delivery?”
Song Chunrui seemed to have been covered by someone, and his face instantly turned red.
Even the words that had just surged into his throat were swallowed a few times before he swallowed them all back into his stomach.
“No way, free of charge? Are they doing charity?” Wang Bi couldn’t believe it until he got Liu Zhi’s affirmative nod.
“Yes, it was too troublesome for them to collect the golden beans, so they gave them to us directly.”
“What the hell?”
Jindouzi still finds it troublesome?
Are you sure you’re not kidding me?
“As hard as it is for you to believe it, it’s true. And they told me.
If it is exchanged with Tianyuan territory, one golden bean can be exchanged for about fifty Tianyuan copper coins.
The price of each meal per person is only 1 copper coin, and four golden beans are enough for all of us to eat for a whole day.
“
Fifty copper coins is actually an ancient price.
As early as when the territory first explored Qinggang City, this recycling price was offered to the wanderers.
Later, because the gold that could be found in the city was so scarce, there was no further price adjustment.
In fact, according to the current inflation prices, one golden bean can be exchanged for at least about 90 copper coins.
This means that four golden beans can be exchanged for nearly four hundred copper coins.
However, when the sailor calculated with Liu Zhi, he used the price of materials after territorial subsidies.
In the absence of immigration subsidies, the price of three meals a day for migrants is about 2 copper coins.
After this calculation, there is actually no difference in purchasing power.
Four golden beans weighing more than 100 grams were still enough to feed more than 200 people present for a day.
“Wait a minute, did I hear you right? You mean these four golden beans.”
“There was enough for all of us to eat there all day, breakfast, lunch and dinner.”
“Three meals?”
When it came to the latter part, Wang Bi gritted his teeth almost every word.
He felt that Liu Zhi and Pang Pangyuan were playing tricks on him. Such a price could no longer be said to be charity.
This is simply a freebie!
If before setting off to Tianyuan Territory, if someone had told him that there was such a place with such low prices.
He will definitely slap the other person hard in the mouth to make him sober up.
“If you don’t believe me, just ask. Unless they lie, and I don’t think they will lie about this kind of thing, there is no need to give us a hundred meat buns for free.”
Liu Zhi frowned and whispered softly:
“The matter has come to this, why not take a good rest first, and when we go there in the afternoon, we can take out the Tianyuan Territory, and we will know for ourselves whether it is true or not.”
“Of course if it’s true, I think the three of you should understand.”
“What an opportunity this will be for the territories behind each of us!”
