I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle - Chapter 1075

"There is a huge fluctuation in the price of magic items." The fortune-telling I did the other day could tell the signs. "

The Thracian clan, known as the Shadow One.

A woman named Zion, one of the chiefs of the Thracian clan.

She somehow came to live in my workshop mansion in the Orient, and it still continues.

Sending shadows to various places to be assassins and collect and manipulate information is helpful because it controls them, but it also has special power.

It is the power of divination.

Maybe it was something close to sorcery.

Zion's fortune hits well.

However, since you can act to avoid the future after knowing the result of fortune-telling, the future does not necessarily come as the result of fortune-telling.

But it still helps me think about the future, so I asked you to let me know if you see anything in the fortune teller.

Then, I went to Mt. Daisetsu El Meralda and took El-chan and the others home. After a long time, the prediction finally came.

The market for magic items was soaring.

That's where the change comes in.

How long will it be?

"Perhaps from this summer to autumn." It seems likely. ”

Is it possible to avoid it?

"... isn't it difficult?" At least, I don't know how to avoid a market crash. ”

"I see. I don't know if I can tell that far." If that's the case, no one will be able to stop it anymore. "

The winter is over and spring is coming.

As early as summer, if the market price of magic tools would change suddenly, I could say that the time left was already limited.

I don't think there's anyone like Theon who can predict the future with a high probability.

Not to mention, if even Theon doesn't know how to avoid a crash, no one will be able to avoid it anymore.

That said, it may be said that this is mostly a definitive future.

"But maybe even if I can't avoid it, I'll shift the timing." No, I don't know how to do that. "

"Perhaps it's hard to stop this flow." Rather, it was Alphonse herself who was responsible for the collapse of the magic equipment market. Rather than stopping the crash, I think it's okay to say it's the cause. "

"Huh? Am I the reason?" Why? Well, I knew it would crash from before, and I didn't do anything to stop it, but I didn't induce it to crash, did I? ”

"What are you joking about?" Isn't that what you're doing now? The crash is triggered by the disappearance of existing money in circulation to create a new entrance. ”

In a conversation with Theon, I was told that the reason for the decline in the magic item price was mine.

Is that really the case?

Think again about what Zion told me.

Or rather, the extinction of the money is the cause... "

In the first place, magic tools were originally manufactured in the enchanted land of Brillia.

In other countries, magic technology was not very widespread, or it seemed almost monopolistic.

In addition, since it could be converted into a weapon such as a magic weapon, the Brillia Magic Kingdom would have limited itself to distributing items that could be used as everyday goods.

They cannot be used as weapons.

The magic circle was also encrypted, so it was not decrypted even if it was sent to the market, and it was treated as a luxury item in the East.

It was the Orient Magic Union that got into it.

I ordered Eye to inform the craftsmen about the fundamentals of magic technology and how to encrypt it in this workshop mansion in the city of the Orient.

And a number of magic tools were created based on that information.

They were bought and sold by artisans competing with each other, which eventually led to the entry of merchants and their positioning as products for speculation.

Nowadays, rather than the performance of magic tools, it is treated as if they can be sold at a higher price if they are bought and left.

The magic items that I bought with a single gold coin were several times, ten times, even a hundred times, and a thousand times more expensive.

It is said that those who do not buy magic tools are fools.

However, it has become too expensive and recently it has become difficult even to buy magic tools.

Therefore, even certificates that I don't really understand, such as the right to purchase magic tools, have been handled.

Of course, I think that's abnormal.

Eventually, some kind of limit will come and it won't work.

That's why I was expecting a crash, but Enn said it was the cause of the crash.

"Maybe it will be a temporary cash shortage?" I wonder if it's because I'm collecting the iron cargo to exchange for En. "

The extinction of existing money in circulation.

I'm pretty sure that Zion is going to recover the iron cargo.

Bring the Iron Cargo to Barca Church and it will be exchanged for En.

A handy entrance that can be traded using bracelets can be exchanged for silver if needed, so many people, regardless of their status, brought iron cargo to Barca Church.

The iron cargo is then transported to my Barca palace in New Barca and converted into silver by Elchan's alchemy.

But for now the silver is the lord of storage, and it is not turned into silver again.

In other words, will the number of coins originally in circulation be reduced?

Coins in circulation in the Orient country are not made in the Orient country.

Coins have been used by large countries, not small countries in the sense that they are credible.

And the same is true for small countries other than the Orient countries.

Most countries in the small group use coins issued by powerful powers in their own countries.

I see.

Enlargement was recognized as an official currency by the Orient countries.

The Orient allowed Enn to be paid as a tax, and it could be stipulated that the Church of Barca could be instructed to exchange Enn for silver if necessary.

But is it different from other small countries?

Transactions through the bracelet are not limited to the Orient country.

Because Ai is in charge, Ai is the chairman of the Orient nation, but Daemon is in the Kaiser Valkyrie.

In other words, it manages the entrance from a distance.

For this reason, there is no need or restriction to keep the trading location in the small country of Orient.

Merchants who are trading in other small countries will now use En to conduct business.

But other countries don't have the means to recover En as their own taxes.

This is because the bracelet magic tool reacts to the magic of individual people and remotely manages En, and there is no real coin.

There is no country other than the Orient that can collect money that has no substance as a tax.

Then what will happen?

I wonder if he will try to collect the money anyway.

Each country tries to collect coins that are lacking in value in kind.

Maybe that's where the merchants sell the magic items they bought for speculation.

If I sold a single coin, I could sell thousands of magic items all at once.

What will happen if that happens?

I thought that even if I tried to sell it, I would not be able to find the buyer.

After all, even if it was a very large Chamber of Commerce, it would be difficult to pay so many gold coins.

Even if there is a seller, there is no buyer's magic equipment price.

If you look at that, and each country asks you to pay the tax in coins, you may be able to sell the magic tool cheaply.

If you want a little cash, there will be a movement to ask for it because it can be cheaper than when you bought it.

Is that going to create a vicious circle and put more downward pressure on prices?

Is that really the case?

I'm not sure if the reason that Theon said the money disappeared is because of the current situation.

But if that's the case, it looks like a problem will erupt from summer to autumn.

Most countries pay taxes because they harvest rice at that time.

For now, let's sell what we can sell in the meantime.

I trusted Theon's fortune teller and decided to get rid of the speculative magic tools I had.
