"'Small World' is very big. We have to visit every city. Although the time is not very abundant, we have left a few days for you to play freely." Zhao Donglai's answer did not disappoint everyone.
Although it’s called a small world, it’s really big inside. The Pianran City in front of you is almost the same as an ancient city. At a glance, we can see that there are all kinds of people on the street, wearing different costumes, including Hanfu, Hufu, suits and leather shoes, modern casual clothes, Tang suits, cheongsams, palace ladies' clothes, ancient generals' clothes, ancient official police officers' clothes... Maybe this "small world" is so tolerant.
The architectural styles are all retro, similar to those in Dali Ancient City and Lijiang Ancient City. The streets are paved with long stone slabs, which are thick and solid, giving people the illusion of going back to ancient times or walking in Hengdian Film and Television City.
It would be fun to be able to explore freely.
The most excited one among them is Hu Jie. What he is best at is seizing the small opportunities that flash by. He wonders what kind of adventures are waiting for him in the "small world".
Others were curious and prepared to go hunting. After all, they were all captains of the Suppressing Division guarding one side. They were extremely powerful and extremely confident. The world described in the novel is probably what a "small world" looks like!
Xiao Yihan didn't care. He had never seen anything strange with his master before, and after a long time, he became accustomed to it. Relatively speaking, he is more interested in the rules of the "small world". When spiritual power practitioners truly appear in front of the world, will the small world be the prototype of the big world in the future? Or should we say that the "small world" exists with such a goal in mind.
"Let's go, let's go!" Before Xiao Yihan could think about it, the somewhat familiar Zhao Lingji pulled Xiao Yihan to follow her father's pace. Xiao Yihan is usually a relatively easy-going person. As long as he is not in front of Wu Xiuying, he will not pay too much attention to these details and has a clear conscience.
Although there are modern technological equipment in Pianran City, transportation is entirely based on legs and there are no vehicles or aircraft. Therefore, the spacious stone road is full of pedestrians of all kinds. Song Peng even saw someone wearing an ancient general's uniform and a red shawl on the street. His expression was resolute, and his every move showed decisive killing. He looked like a master...
"Brother, it's inappropriate for you to just snatch the spiritual stone that I've been guarding for several months!"
Hu Jie saw Xiao Yihan pulling an ordinary pedestrian on the road to question him, and seemed to conclude that this man who looked like a woodcutter was the master who brazenly climbed over the wall. But in everyone's opinion, the woodcutter didn't look as powerful as he did just now!
"Who are you?" The woodcutter wanted to get rid of Xiao Yihan and leave quickly, but Xiao Yihan's hand was like a vise and he couldn't get rid of it.
"Do you dare to say it's not you?" Xiao Yihan said with a slight smile.
"You brat, is it your turn to meddle in other people's business? The 'small world' is like this. The weak eat the strong. They hold such treasures with hot hands. Grandpa, I am here to help them avoid disasters." The woodcutter saw that Xiao Yihan was an idiot. The master who did not enter was no longer hidden. A light yellow halo flashed, and his momentum immediately changed drastically.
Hey, it turned out to be him.
Hu Jie was surprised, how did Xiao Yihan figure it out? It seemed that this guy did have special abilities.
"Oh, since you said that, then I will follow your words and argue with you."
The woodcutter was horrified to find that even with his full spiritual power, he could not break away from the young and outrageous young man in front of him, "Who are you and what do you want?"
"I just want to talk sense to you! Since the truth doesn't make sense, let's see whose fist is stronger!" Xiao Yihan smiled, looking harmless to humans and animals, making the woodcutter's face turn red.
The others didn't think it was a big deal, they were all holding hands and watching Xiao Yihan, a young man, fighting the injustice. Many people thought he was a bit too old and mature before, but now they can't help but smile when they see his vigorous appearance. He looks like a young man now. What a human being!
Pianran City allows small-scale private fights, as long as they don't damage city facilities or hurt innocent people.
"Damn, don't bully me too much." The woodcutter was so angry that he raised his right foot and stepped hard onto the ground. With a "boom", four mysterious circles suddenly appeared under his feet. The star array slowly rotated around him. When the circular star array was rotating, there was a faint sound of twisting metal gears in the array.
"Hey, is this a special skill in the fourth-level realm?" Song Peng's curiosity was aroused when he saw the woodcutter's mysterious array. The same goes for other onlookers. After all, skills that can draw out spiritual power arrays are rare.
Under the blessing of four golden circular arrays, the woodcutter's left foot sank slightly, accumulating strength, then kicked hard, and kicked his right foot in front of Xiao Yihan with a sound of breaking the air.
This kick can be said to be the Woodcutter's peak strike.
Song Peng noticed that in addition to the air-piercing force of the woodcutter's kick, he also saw from the side that the air beside it was torn apart, and there were vaguely strange arrays hidden around it. It can basically be judged that the power of this attack is superimposed. If he were left to deal with it, Song Peng would choose to avoid the edge temporarily.
"It's interesting!" Hu Jie also noticed that this kick was not simple. Different from Song Peng's response strategy, Hu Jie was very excited. When he encountered a strong opponent, he would choose to fight head-on.
It's too late, but it's soon.
There was a loud "bang", and there was a faint echo in the street.
Facing the woodcutter's lightning whip kick, Xiao Yihan raised his hand to block it lightly, and received the blow without even taking a step back.
The street seemed to have suddenly stopped at this moment. Everyone glanced over casually or inadvertently, and then returned to normal. Time seemed to be startled by Xiao Yihan.
Master! ! !
"So simple?" Song Peng and the others were particularly surprised. Including others, the full blow supported by the star array was of extraordinary power. How could Xiao Yihan take it so easily? ! ?
This guy is very powerful!
Hu Jie asked himself that he couldn't do it.
The woodcutter's face was full of pig liver color, and at the same time he was also in disbelief. His kick was comparable to the peak of the seventh level, but the opponent did not retreat even an inch. Moreover, his feet were injured by the force of the earthquake. Who is this young man?
"How about it, are you willing to reason with me now?"
Those who know the current affairs are heroes, and the woodcutter doesn't want to tangle with Xiao Yihan anymore. After all, his skills are inferior to others, so he has to admit defeat: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Hou Huajie and the others had followed Xiao Yihan and the others into the city before, and after seeing what was going on here, they also came over. When I saw that this young expert from the Zhenfu Division was standing up for them, I suddenly felt like there was a bright future in the dark. It was so unexpected.
"Return the things to them, or exchange them with something of equal value." Xiao Yihan didn't necessarily want to bully the weak, but he just saw that the woodcutter went too far. Although the Lingyuan Fetal Stone is quite rare, it is not a rare treasure in the world. There are quite a few of them in aristocratic families outside, let alone in a "small world" with such a strong atmosphere of rivers and lakes.
"One Locking Talisman can be exchanged for 30,000 gold in the small world. I have two here to exchange for your Lingyuan Feiting Stone. Are you willing?" The woodcutter had to use the Lingyuan Feiting Stone for something, so he could only use more than In exchange for something worth the Lingyuan fetal stone, otherwise Xiao Yihan would definitely not let him go easily.
"Okay." Hou Huajie and others discussed it for a while and felt that 60,000 gold was already very high. Moreover, in the "small world", all transactions are very safe. Gold coins are transferred directly on Tianxun. Spirit stones of various qualities can be exchanged at major exchanges at any time, because the gold standard in the "small world" corresponds to Spiritual stone.
It seems that the things Small World wants to test are not that simple. The currency corresponds to gold coins, and the gold coins are anchored to spiritual stones. This is to subvert the financial system of the real world and build a new and healthier financial world! !
In the real world, the global monetary and financial system was originally established from the Bretton Woods system. The currencies of various countries were locked in the US dollar, and the US dollar was locked in gold, with every 35 US dollars exchanged for 1 ounce of gold. Later, the United States betrayed its trust and announced that it would close the gold window. The U.S. dollar decoupled from gold and was instead supported by the government's credit. Transactions tied to the commodity oil with military force were settled in U.S. dollars, and began to truly profit from the world.
Since then, mankind has truly seen the emergence of a financial empire, and this financial empire has included the entire human race into its financial system.
At the same time, in addition to issuing national debt, the United States often supports reactionary forces around the world, causing trouble everywhere, and even direct military intervention, allowing a large amount of dollars circulating overseas to return to the United States and enter the three major markets of the United States-the futures market, Treasury market and securities market. In this way, Americans make money by making money, and then export it overseas, absorbing low prices and making high profits, making profits in a cycle of exhaling and exhaling. The United States has thus become a financial empire that specializes in harvesting the world's wool.
However, whenever there is an economic crisis in the United States, the Federal Reserve will print a large amount of dollars and export dollars to the world, diluting its inflation, transferring its own economic crisis to the world, and making all countries that use dollars bear the burden with them. After the economies of various countries developed, they began to harvest, cut leeks, and shear wool. After experiencing several such incidents, many countries suddenly woke up, began to diversify their foreign exchange reserves, and even sought de-dollarization in an attempt to break away from this passive financial situation.
At the beginning of the 21st century, Iraq was an important starting point for the European Union to achieve international monetary expansion and move south to the oil-rich areas of the Middle East, and to get rid of its dependence on Russian oil and gas resources. When the United States started the war in Iraq, it was undoubtedly a slap in the face of the European Union.
Since then, the United States and Europe have parted ways in international geostrategy. The European Union has entered the Middle East, teaming up with Russia and China to create obstacles for the United States overtly and covertly.
European social elites have begun to realize that Europe, which operates in a decentralized manner, will never gain global influence, let alone become a decisive force in the era of great power competition, and Europe's interests will not be guaranteed.
The popularity of this trend of thought has accelerated the EU integration process after Europe's 2009 debt crisis.
The integration of the European Union will harm the interests of the United States and reduce its influence. Therefore, the battlefield of the game between the two sides is also all-round. They fight openly and secretly, and there are endless means to benefit themselves at the expense of others, which has stunned the world.
The United States is unscrupulous and uses every possible means!
However, with the defeat of the two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the global influence of the United States has suffered an unprecedented blow, and the exploitative and oppressive international order led by it has irreversibly disintegrated.
Just like the rise of China, the United States cannot stop the historical trend of EU integration. It can only find ways to delay it by using all possible tricks.
After several struggles, with the improvement of European integration, the unification of the Ministry of Finance and political integration, the EU began to gradually gain financial initiative and chose to cooperate with China to jointly resist the dollar. And China made concessions in RCEP and the Chinese Confucian cultural circle, promoting the creation of an Asian dollar dominated by the renminbi, followed by the Japanese yen and the Korean won. Eventually, the world's financial landscape evolved into a situation where the US dollar, the euro, and the Asian dollar dominated the world.
In this world situation, China, which has the world's most comprehensive industrial system and huge industries, is approaching aggressively with the increasingly mature digital renminbi.
Currency must have a carrier. Without a carrier, the end would be the same as Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes and gold yuan coupons, inflation and economic collapse. Currency cannot be printed just as you want, it must be logically self-consistent and correspond to the current economic aggregate. If you print too much, there will be inflation, and if you print too little, there will be insufficient economic power. In today's world, there is currently no new and more complete way to print money. Because there is no perfect anchor that can be used as an energy anchor or directly as a currency, prices in the real world will become unstable. . This is a super hidden danger for the collapse of social order.
Therefore, how to find a perfect method of printing money is a proposition that the world is thinking about today. Once a different approach emerges from the previous academic circles, this person will definitely win the Nobel Prize in Economics, and he will be able to jump in line and win it quickly.
There are experts behind the construction of the "small world" system.
