Double Transmigration: Many Children, Many Blessings, Conquering Fairy Tales and Reality
Chapter 7 The Flow of Time and the Monetization of the First Pot of Gold
With a slight feeling of dizziness, when Qin Hao opened his eyes again, the surrounding scenery had changed back to that narrow boys' dormitory filled with the smell of instant noodles and a little bit of sweat.
Looking at the familiar peeling paint on the wall above his head, Qin Hao let out a long sigh of relief and slumped onto the lower bunk.
"Phew... Modern society is so much better."
Although he made a fortune in the other world, the sense of security in the real world was the most reassuring compared to the perilous fairy tale world.
After catching his breath, Qin Hao quickly regained his composure.
Instead of immediately counting his spoils, he pulled out the old-fashioned mechanical watch that he had specially brought to the other world from his pocket.
Then he grabbed the smartphone that he had been leaving on his dorm bed and began to carefully compare the times on both sides.
He clearly remembers that the moment he stepped through the double doorway, he glanced at his phone; it was exactly noon.
Now, on the mechanical watch that accompanied him on his journey through the other world, the hour hand has already pointed to 10 p.m.
In other words, from the moment he encountered the werewolf in the forest to the moment he made a deal to buy a house in the town, he spent a full 10 hours in the fairy tale world.
But when he turned on his phone screen, which had been stuck in the real world, the time displayed was: 1:02 PM!
The error of those two minutes is not significant and is basically insignificant.
"One hour has passed in the real world, but ten hours have passed in the other world..."
So, the time flow ratio between the real world and the fairy tale world is 1:10?
Qin Hao stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he nodded in satisfaction.
This is absolutely fantastic news!
He had been vaguely worried that if he was delayed for ten or fifteen days in the other world to focus on his career, and then suddenly disappeared for that long in the real world, his counselor and family would definitely call the police immediately.
Explaining my whereabouts then will definitely be a huge problem.
With this 1:10 time difference, he could stay in the fairy tale world for a full ten days, while only one day would pass in the real world.
This greatly gave him the ease and convenience to build a business empire in the other world.
After clarifying the timeline, Qin Hao took a deep breath, reached into his pocket, and took out the remaining 10 extremely heavy gold coins.
Looking at the heavy, otherworldly hard currency in his hand, radiating a captivating yellow light, Qin Hao couldn't help but smile.
"As expected, I was able to bring it over."
With the wealth in hand, Qin Hao did not hesitate at all.
He immediately put the gold coins away from his body, opened the closed dormitory door, and quickly left the school, taking a taxi directly to the largest gold shop near the city center.
Pushing open the door of the jewelry store, a blast of cold air hits you.
Qin Hao went straight to the counter, found a seemingly senior employee, and asked in a low voice:
"Hello, do you buy ancient gold coins here?"
The shop assistant paused for a moment, then quickly put on a professional smile and nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, sir. We accept all gold coins, regardless of their design, as long as they are genuine gold."
These days, international gold prices are soaring, and the overall market price remains high.
Many people who used to keep their gold as family heirlooms are now cashing it out at high prices.
Therefore, the shop assistants were not at all surprised by Qin Hao's act of selling old gold coins, and directly invited Qin Hao to the VIP reception room at the back.
Not long after, a gold shop manager in a suit walked in.
The manager politely shook hands with Qin Hao, gave a brief self-introduction, and then asked Qin Hao which type of ancient gold coin he wanted to sell.
Qin Hao had already prepared his answer and replied without changing his expression:
"I'm not quite sure what era it's from. It was something my father collected by chance when he was young."
After saying that, Qin Hao took out two gold coins from his pocket and gently pushed them in front of the manager.
For safety reasons, he did not take out all 10 at once.
The manager put on white gloves, picked up the gold coin, took out a magnifying glass from his pocket, examined it carefully for a moment, and then shook his head somewhat helplessly.
"Sir, I'm not really familiar with the casting process and patterns on this."
However, judging from its style, it should be some kind of circulating gold coin from medieval Europe.
If this item were taken to a knowledgeable antique market and found a collector, it might fetch a higher premium than gold itself.
Are you sure you want to sell it as regular gold at our store?
"Confirmed to sell."
Qin Hao nodded without hesitation, his tone extremely natural.
"I really don't understand this stuff, and I don't have many connections or resources in the antique circle."
Rather than getting ripped off by some unknown middleman, it's easier to just sell it as gold directly.
Seeing Qin Hao's "easy target" look, the manager was secretly pleased, but maintained a professional demeanor and nodded.
"Since you've made your decision, sir, then we'll proceed according to the rules."
The manager took out a professional X-ray gold content analyzer (XRF spectrometer) and scanned the gold coin.
"drop--"
Looking at the data displayed on the instrument, a hint of surprise flashed in the manager's eyes:
"Wow, I never would have guessed that the ancient refining technology was so advanced. The gold content of this coin is actually quite good, with a purity of 95%."
Then, the manager took out a small electronic scale, weighed the two gold coins in front of Qin Hao, and quickly estimated their value using a calculator.
"Sir, both gold coins weigh about 10 grams each, for a total of 20 grams."
Based on a gold content of 95%, that's equivalent to 19 grams of pure gold.
Today, the market price for gold recycling in the store is exactly 1000 yuan per gram, totaling 19000 yuan.
Is this price acceptable to you?
If there are no problems, would you like cash or direct bank transfer?
Qin Hao quickly calculated in his mind that the price was roughly the same as his previous estimate.
He wasn't worried about being targeted by the jewelry store staff or getting into any trouble with double-crossing.
After all, this is a legitimate gold shop that handles millions of dollars worth of gold transactions every day. My mere transaction of a few grams of gold is nothing in their eyes.
"Please transfer the money directly to my bank card."
Qin Hao readily gave out his bank account number.
The supervisor nodded and immediately arranged the financial procedures.
Less than three minutes later, Qin Hao's phone vibrated, receiving a text message from the bank confirming the deposit had been credited to his account.
Looking at his mobile banking app, with the remaining two thousand yuan, the total balance had exceeded 21,000 yuan, and Qin Hao smiled sincerely.
Although in modern society, more than 20,000 yuan is not even enough to buy a toilet, this was the first cash flow that truly took off in his business empire!
With this initial capital, he was finally able to escape that cramped dormitory and rent a sufficiently secluded and spacious house off-campus, officially launching his plan to resell properties across two worlds.
