i have a super island

Chapter 814 The price of lime mine has increased
Roger grinned and said, "It's not a big deal, but the lamp oil on the boat is running out, and I want to buy some more from you."

Fang Fang was very surprised, and asked: "The lamp oil is very resistant to burning, and it will be used up so soon?"

"It's like this. It hasn't been extinguished since the last time it was ignited." Roger explained, "You also know that after what happened last time, I was always in fear wherever I went, for fear of encountering those seabeds again. monster, so I kept burning those oil lamps."

After calculating the equation, it has been more than four months since Roger left last time and returned this time.

I just gave him a little shark oil, and it took so long to order it.

Roger said: "Of course, I won't ask for it in vain. I will pay as much as it should be."

Fang Fang waved his hand and said, "It's just a little lamp oil. If there is any money, it's an old friend. I'll give it to you."

"That's not good, isn't that lamp oil very precious?"

"It's ok."

Fang Fang said that he has already taken a box of gold coins from you, so he has the nerve to ask for your gas money.

Roger thought he had made a lot of money from this business, and Fang Fang felt that he had made a lot of money. There are still dozens of mummified mermaid corpses in the warehouse of Wanguocheng. If they can be exchanged for gold coins, why worry that Wanguocheng has no gold reserves. .

In this way, the equation gave Roger a free lamp oil.

With the new lamp oil, Roger felt more at ease, and no longer worried about being harassed by those sharks when sailing in this sea of ​​time and space.

By the next day, the supplies had run out and the deal was done.

Roger summoned the crew on the island, and these unsatisfied crew members returned to the ship one after another.

Standing on the side of the boat, Roger waved goodbye to Equation and his party.

The anchor was hoisted, the sails were full, and the merchant ship withdrew from the sea and sailed towards the blue sea.

"he's gone."

"Ah."

Fang Fang turned his head to look at Li Qingman.

The two looked at each other, and their minds were instantly understood.

The arrival of Roger this time can be said to have brought the best thing to Wan Guo City, and that is gold.

Of course, all this is thanks to Li Qingman's fight.

If she hadn't insisted on persuading Roger to trade with Wan Guocheng, then there would be nothing like this.

"it's good now."

"Yeah, we have a fortune in our hands."

Fang Fang sighed, as the governor of Wan Guo City, he was most worried about the issuance of copper coins before.

Without gold as a backing, those copper coins are nothing but a blank check. Fortunately, now that I have gold in my hand, I suddenly become more confident.

Some things seem to be arranged by God.

Roger just brought a sum of gold to Wan Guo City, but it didn't take long for the gold to be used.

On this day, Blake found the equation and reflected a recent situation to him.

When Blake talked about this matter, he still feels very puzzled, that is, the price of lime ore on Pisces Island has increased.

Since the implementation of currency in Wan Guo City, including daily cargo ships to other islands to transport supplies, copper coins are used for settlement.

At the beginning, a shipment of lime ore cost ten copper coins, but now the price has risen to fifteen copper coins, which is [-]% more expensive, which made Blake very angry.

Therefore, Blake asked the soldiers who purchased the copper coins to capture some people from Pisces Island.

After listening to the equation, he looked at Blake in surprise and asked, "Why are you arresting them?"

Blake was very surprised, he didn't expect Equation to reprimand him, immediately, as if he had done something wrong, he said in a low voice: "They raised the price of limestone and made us pay more copper coins, this kind of behavior is too abominable. "

"you……"

Equation glared at Blake.

Suddenly he realized that it was useless to be angry, he and Blake had nothing to be angry about.

Blake is a guy who knows how to fight. He doesn't know any economic laws. The people on Pisces Island definitely don't dare to raise the price of limestone. If the price can rise from ten copper coins to fifteen copper coins, there must be something wrong. .

And Blake's approach is not to solve the problem, but to solve the person who raised the problem, which is putting the cart before the horse.

"Where are they, those who were captured by you?"

"In the school grounds, I was tied up."

"Okay, go and bring those people to me."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Knowing that he didn't handle things well, Blake took this opportunity to perform well and personally brought those guys to the equation.

Several soldiers escorted the miners from Pisces Island to Fang Fang.

Fang Fang pouted his chin at those soldiers and told them to untie them.

When several miners saw Equation, they thought the matter was serious, and knelt down to beg the consul for mercy.

Fang said, "Don't worry, I won't punish you."

Hearing that the consul would not punish themselves, these miners instantly felt relieved.

"What the hell is going on with you?"

"..."

Several miners looked at the ferocious fighters around them, and were too frightened to speak.

Fang Fang waved his hand and let Blake leave with a group of soldiers.

Blake took the people away, and no one could act as an interpreter for a while. Just at this time, Pearl was holding the baby and basking in the sun. Fang Fang called Pearl to his side and asked her to act as an interpreter for him.

"What's going on, why has the price of lime mines on Pisces Island increased so much recently?"

"We...we don't know, the price just went up like this." Those miners looked innocent.

Equation asked: "Has the output of lime mines on Beas Island decreased? Or have fewer people mining?" There is always a reason for the price increase of lime mines. The most likely reason is that the output has decreased, so the price will naturally increase. It is expensive, so the equation guesses like this.

But those miners kept shaking their heads and denying it, saying that the production of limestone on Pisces Island has not decreased, there are still so many people digging, and there is a fixed output of so much every day, but no one understands why the price has risen up.

Pearl coaxed the baby aside, and said doubtfully: "Master Consul, I have heard Madam say that things are rare and expensive. But the lime mines on Pisces Island have not decreased, so why is there such a situation? Woolen cloth?"

Equation frowned, and said: "The rise and fall of prices is a very complicated process, and in many cases it cannot be explained clearly in one sentence."

The things involved here are indeed complicated, and even the equations cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

Pearl asked, "Then what should we do now?"

Fang Fang said: "Just collect limestone at the price of fifteen copper coins per boat, and help me investigate the prices of materials on other islands to see if this is a special case of Pisces Island or a common example for all islands."

"Okay, I'll do it right now."

"Why don't you just forget it, I'll send someone else if you want to take care of the child." Seeing Pearl holding the child in his arms, Fang Fang feared that it would be inconvenient for her.

Pearl smiled and said: "What's the matter, it's not a problem, anyway, I've been wandering around the island all day with Xiao Zhiming in my arms, and I just feel like I need to find something to do."
