The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 174
Chapter 174-Crystal Card
Under Du Lei’s guidance, Lance finally found the cafeteria. Seeing the rich dishes in the cafeteria, Lance moved his index finger. He brought several servings to the table to feast on. Although Du Lei was the first time to come to Maple Leaf Academy, no He is familiar with the environment here, but he can make good use of such things as “maps”.
It is the evening, and the peak period of meals has passed. There are not many people in the cafeteria. Apart from the three of them, there are only seven or eight people in bits and pieces. It is early spring. It was still a bit cold at night, and the evening breeze slowly blew so that people couldn’t help but excite.
“Sie, it’s still cold in this season. The north is much colder than ours. By the way, Du Lei, aren’t you cold?” Lance sneezed. He is not very comfortable with the north. Before the temperature came, he was dressed thickly, but now they have all changed into white uniforms.
“Is it cold? There is still a thick layer of snow in my hometown.” Du Lei shook his head. The geographic location of Maple City is southerly on the territory of Snow Country, and the southern one. It is bordered by the country of mountains, and there are many snow ridges on the way to the city of maple, but there is no snow in the city of maple.
“As a southerner, I can’t understand the thinking of your northerners at all. The food here is really good. You don’t have to pay for roast duck, smoked ham, and bread. In this way, the days are really happy.” Lance patted his stomach.
The dining tray he brought over just now was full, and even the aunt in the cafeteria wondered if he had brought it for someone else. At least it’s worth five or six people. Krance ate it all by himself. Erjing, by comparison, Kelly didn’t even finish one serving.
“Just dream about you, that is because we are freshmen, we have this kind of treatment. Have you not taken a serious look at the rules and regulations of the college? According to the rules of the college, we can only enjoy one week of free dining benefits, one After a week, it won’t be free.” Kelly glared at him.
“What? One week? After that one week? Do I have to use money to buy it?” Lance really didn’t go to see the academy’s system. When Kelly said this, he scratched his head. After all, it’s a matter of his stomach. It’s a big problem, you know, he has an empty bag, and he doesn’t have a single silver coin.
“It’s almost understandable to buy something with money… but in fact there is a little difference.” Du Lei read the student code for the first time and knew that Maple Leaf College is a complete set of rules and regulations.
“Small difference? Du Lei, what do you mean by this?” Lance became more confused as he listened.
“Outside money won’t work in Maple Leaf Academy. Crystal cards are circulating here. That’s this kind of thing.” Du Lei took out from his pocket a sheet about the size of a half palm, very thin and crystal-clear in texture. The card, the surface of the card is spinning with flowing brilliance.
And above, the school badge of Maple Leaf Academy can be clearly seen, which is the outline of a silver-white maple leaf.
“Crystal card? Is this thing called a crystal card?” Lance took the crystal card from Du Lei, held it in his hand and watched it, feeling cold to the touch.
“You can understand that it is the general currency inside the Maple Leaf Academy. You can use it to buy everything you want, including daily necessities, food, housing and transportation, as well as the raw materials used in alchemy, and you can even directly buy refined ones. Finished product.” Du Lei explained patiently.
“Alchemy? What kind of alchemy?” Lance was interested in this word and asked immediately.
“It’s nothing, I’m just making an analogy. In short, if you want to survive in Maple Leaf Academy, you can’t live without this.” Du Lei said about it.
“Du Lei, you said they made the rules so complicated for what, what currency, what crystal card, I almost fainted, wouldn’t it be good for them to buy and sell silver coins directly?” Although Lance was empty, but He also didn’t have any crystal cards.
“Idiot, if outside silver or gold coins are allowed to circulate in, do you think Maple Leaf Academy can still hold it?” Kelly handed him a look with contempt.
“Why can’t it be supported? Isn’t it a good thing to have money to circulate?” Lance became more confused.
“Sometimes the power of money is more terrifying than the army of poor monsters.” Kelly shook her head, disapproving Lance’s words.
“What’s the matter? Are you sure we are talking about the same topic?” Lance felt that he and Kelly had a mismatch.
“Maple Leaf Academy is different from other places. This is the city of Maple, and even the barrier to the south of the Kingdom of Snow, directly facing the territory of Warcraft, Lance, what do you think this means?” Du Lei read in these two days I have read a lot of literature and have a better understanding of Maple Leaf College.
“This means responsibility, we must guard this place!” Lance replied sonorously.
“It’s not just this, it means there are huge business opportunities here.” Du Lei did not deny Lance’s words, but added to it.
“Business opportunity? Why is there another business opportunity?” Lance became more confused.
“Idiot, because it is directly facing the territory of Warcraft, Maple Leaf Academy can be said to be facing a huge treasure house. Warcraft is full of treasures. Whether it is fur or crystal core, it can be sold at a high price, the higher the level. The more expensive the materials and crystal nuclei obtained after killing the monsters.”
Although Kelly cursed Lance verbally, he would still explain when he had questions.
“This…what about this?” Lance heard Du Lei and Kelly explain in turn, but he still didn’t understand and felt a little guilty.
“If currency from the outside world is allowed to circulate in, the various alchemical materials and crystal nuclei hunted by Maple Leaf Academy will inevitably be targeted by major consortia. Under the impact of money, Maple Leaf Academy will become chaotic and impossible to manage. For this reason, the crystal card system was adopted.”
“The so-called crystal cards are sealed in crystal cards with magical energy. Each crystal card has the logo of Maple Leaf Academy. It cannot be copied and unique. Moreover, the issuance of crystal cards is limited. This will ensure that Maple Leaf Academy is connected to the materials. Is in a dominant position in the transaction, do you understand?” Kelly finished explaining in one breath, she explained clearly enough.
“What you said… I seem to understand a little bit, and there is one more question, how did the Crystal Card come from?” Lance finally asked.
“Of course I did it. As a freshman at Maple Leaf Academy, I can get 20 Crystal Cards every month, and I can also get them by completing the academy’s commissioned tasks. In general… It can only guarantee the most basic level of food and clothing.” Du Lei said helplessly.
