"Mr. Stranger, welcome to the Basque mining town."
"On behalf of the residents of the whole town, I welcome you to this town. You will definitely need a place to stay in the future, so please let me warmly recommend you the Basque Mining Hotel. This is also the only hotel in our entire town that allows foreign guests to stay. Place. This hotel has a history of hundreds of years and is the most famous place to stay in the area."
"In the Basque Mining Hotel, you can have a drink, listen to some music and have a good night's sleep."
"If there are any special services, our hotel will work hard to provide them for you."
"You know, there are not many residents in the Basque mining area, but there is no shortage of beautiful girls."
"They will not covet the money in your pocket. If your appearance can please them, not only will you not have to spend money, you will even earn a lot of pocket money from those sisters."
"There is also the Basque Mining Area. The hotel has the most famous offal soup in this town."
"Those businessmen who often come to the mining area to collect minerals are full of praise for this. Sir, if you want to stay in the town for a while, you must try it."
It's such a good idea, but it's a bit unreasonable to go and take a look. And since the other party said that this is the only hotel where guests can stay, there is no other place where Mai Fan can go.
He followed this person very happily, but after taking two steps, he suddenly seemed to remember something and asked the other person: "What do you pay for. Is there any hard and fast rule?"
"It's better to have a toll similar to what I paid when I entered the town."
The person who led the sentence was stunned for a moment. He was very surprised that Mai Fan had almost zero common sense in this small town.
However, he was only surprised for a brief moment before smiling more enthusiastically.
"Guest, you can pay how you want. We have them there, and they are all clearly marked. You can take out the hard currency you think you can exchange. We accept everything here. You must know that we are residents here. The town also has various mining industries. There are so many things that can be exchanged for currency here. If you still feel that it is not safe, or are afraid that our hotel will misappropriate your property, then you might as well go to us Go and have a look at the central bank of the town. You can exchange the supplies on hand into the common currency of the town and you can spend it here boldly."
Is there such a fair place?
Mai Fan nodded to him and said, "If it's not too much trouble, wait for me. I'll go to the Central Bank to exchange some currency first. Without the circulation power here, I don't feel at ease, right?"
Seeing that Mai Fan really planned to stay in his hotel, the young man who brought the guests also smiled happily.
He pointed Mai Fan forward in a measured manner without even using it. Without further ado, Mai Fan saw a huge coin neon sign standing in front of a weird house. No need to think about it, this is the so-called CITIC Bank for exchange in the town.
Even at night, the central bank has no intention of closing. The main entrance is locked very tightly, but there is a small dark window on the side. There is a light in the window that says 24-hour exchange. This means that there is someone in the bank doing night business. Give this little guy Some conveniences are provided to the residents of the town.
at this time. There is no business to be done.
Mai Fan walked to the window and knocked on it gently, and then the bank gave corresponding feedback.
A plate was pushed out of the window, and a slightly hoarse voice came from inside.
"Put in the supplies that need to be exchanged for currency. We will make a reasonable estimate."
Mai Fan hesitated for a moment, but he didn't move the bones that he wanted to exchange with the old detective.
He took out the potatoes with the highest yield among the crops in the backyard. Before he dared to take the largest ones, a bag weighing about 50 kilograms was placed on the tray.
After confirming that Mai Fan would exchange these supplies, the plate was taken away by the people inside.
And then there’s one that lasts five minutes. Material evaluation and redemption process.
To be honest, if there were anyone around Mai Fan, they would definitely be wondering why this material exchange took so long.
Judging from past experience, it takes about a minute or two for outsiders to push in materials and the corresponding currency is pushed out.
In a situation like Mai Fan's, there is usually only one possibility, and that is that the value of the materials he brought has exceeded their basic evaluation of the materials.
For unusual and precious things, or unusual and unusual houses, the other party will need a period of time to confirm and then conduct an effective evaluation.
However, the plate was pushed out anyway, and then Mai Fan saw a large pile of currency piled on the plate.
He pulled the plate in front of him in a daze, but his hands collected the coins very naturally.
The currency in this town is very interesting.
These currencies are like products of natural growth, not like the cold feeling after mechanical processing.
If they weren't made of iron ore, which is common around here, Mai Fan would have even thought they were shells shed from some kind of creature.
Because those shapes are like shells with lines. The sizes are different, and the patterns are also different.
Thanks to the diary's collection of basic information about this bank, the translation of these currency denominations is very appropriate.
Mai Fan took it in his hand, and the currency in the bracelet was divided into three denominations.
There is only one coin with the largest face value, which is about 500 coins.
Its size is like a swan egg on the beach, as big as a hand.
The currency case is very smooth, with a very small 500 inscribed in the corner.
Then there is the base currency with a value of ten denominations.
Mai Fan probably got more than 20 of them.
The size of this currency is like the size of our ordinary coins.
The size of a one-yuan coin, with a face value of 20.
Finally, the number is relatively middle, about eight.
The size is the same as an ordinary one-cent coin, and it is marked with a one in the center on the top, which is quite easy to recognize.
Mai Fan took a rough look and found that it was about 788 yuan.
Used to buy 50 kilograms of potatoes, is the exchange rate a bit high?
So he still needs to know the prices in the town here. If he doesn't have enough money, he can exchange potatoes over there.
Turning around, Mai Fan found the person who was leading the way.
