Chapter 80: Monetary System Arrangement
Sometimes, just a chair or a seating arrangement can reveal a lot.
Shen Fei's biggest concern about the alliance is that it will adopt a "voting system" or give too much authority to other lords in the alliance.
Although he can still rely on the strength of the territory to guarantee his own rights, the existence of the system has a great impact.
For example, when doing business on Earth before, Shen Fei always regretted giving up too many shares for the rapid development in the early stage. Although he is still a major shareholder, he can still feel the influence from other shareholders.
At this moment, at least Shen Fei is quite satisfied with this throne and this layout.
It doesn't matter if you don't have the strength.
Since you have such strength, you naturally have to hold the power firmly in your hands.
However, the specific situation cannot be seen from just one chair.
Shen Fei walked up to the highest seat step by step, and stretched out his hand to gently brush across the table. Although it looks like wood, it feels cold like metal when touched.
Until he sat on the highest throne, overlooking the entire conference hall, the light screen appeared in front of him.
"I see."
Shen Fei finally understood why Li Tingyu said that this was the most important place in the entire alliance center.
All the control panels of the alliance were concentrated on the light screen of the alliance leader's seat.
Many options were clearly given on it.
[Alliance Members], [Alliance Currency], [Alliance Trade], [Alliance Buildings], [Alliance Warehouse], [Alliance Map]
There are six major categories in total.
Click on the members. As expected, there can only be a maximum of fifty alliance members except the alliance leader.
This can be seen from the fifty seats.
But what surprised Shen Fei was that the alliance members could appoint alliance officials in the options.
"Official positions and powers can be freely arranged by the alliance leader. This function is not bad." Shen Fei's eyes lit up slightly.
"The Alliance Center divides the members' rights very finely." Li Tingyu, who was standing next to Shen Fei, could also see the light screen. "The most important of these are issuing military orders, allocating alliance resources, and managing alliance personnel, which correspond to military, wealth, and politics respectively. My Lord, it is best to keep these powers in your own hands. Even if you want to distribute some of the lower-level rights, you must choose the personnel well."
"Can't you control the light screen?" Shen Fei suddenly asked.
"No." Li Tingyu shook her head.
"Then you can only serve as the secretary of the leader in the alliance, which is a bit troublesome." Shen Fei frowned slightly.
Compared with other lords, he obviously trusts his hero more.
If the hero cannot serve in the alliance and obtain authority, then some places can choose the lord.
However, Shen Fei's eyebrows were quickly smoothed.
The authority is divided so finely, and there is a lot of room for operation. Generally speaking, the leader has great power.
At most, let the hero assist and supervise, and dismiss him if he does not do a good job.
Shen Fei clicked on the option of alliance currency again.
Relevant information popped up.
[Please confirm the style, denomination, and value of the alliance currency. The alliance currency can be recognized by the lord system for production with workshop buildings. ]
Recognized by the lord system?
Shen Fei seemed to realize something and clicked on the option of [Alliance Trade].
After a while, he completely understood.
"Really thoughtful." Shen Fei murmured to himself.
The so-called alliance currency is indeed currency. Not only can it have real creations, but it can also be transformed into numbers in alliance trade.
In other words, alliance trade has its own "bank" function.
All lords can recharge the currency and then buy items from the alliance trade, or take out items and sell them in the alliance trade, and other lords can buy them with alliance currency.
It is equivalent to skipping the stage of bartering directly.
And the guarantee of this currency lies in the warehouse.
After the price is set and it flows into the market, all alliance members can use the currency to directly purchase core resources from the alliance warehouse.
For example, source crystals, soul crystals, and flesh and blood.
Once the resources in the warehouse are insufficient, it is easy to cause a run. Although it can be dealt with by adjusting the price at this time, it will undoubtedly cause inflation and affect the credibility of the currency.
Too real.
Such a currency, both in nature and function, is a real currency in a society and a civilization.
The lord system only simplifies its birth and facilitates its use, but it does not simplify its control and complexity at all.
"An alliance leader who knows how to play and has strength will definitely make a lot of money, but an alliance leader who doesn't know how to play will probably lose a lot of money." Shen Fei whispered to himself.
"My Lord, let me decide on the pricing of core resources." Li Tingyu obviously realized the importance of the alliance currency and volunteered, "I have experience in managing currency, and the resources we have are enough for us to control the currency exchange of the entire district."
"You tell me, I'll do it." Shen Fei nodded, "Let's try a basic one first, it's not impossible to adjust it anyway."
"Yes." Li Tingyu thought for a moment and said, "Both flesh and soul crystals can be exchanged for ten coins, and source crystals can be exchanged for a hundred coins."
"Ten times?" Shen Fei was stunned.
"Yes." Li Tingyu nodded slightly and explained, "At this stage, source crystals are scarce items, and high-level lords are in urgent need of them, but for low-level lords, they don't have much effect for a while. Only high bids can make low-level lords take the initiative to sell them in exchange for the resources they urgently need. In addition, we have a relatively large number of source crystals, and the higher the bid, the greater the value."
Shen Fei seemed to have thought about it and seemed to have figured it out.
Indeed.
At this stage, the most urgent needs of ordinary and high-level lords are flesh and soul crystals, because they need more lords.
With more lords, they can increase their income by mining resources.
In this case, even if they get the source crystals by chance, they will not save them at all and use them for some temporary scientific research that is not very useful. The higher the price, the easier it is for them to trade the source crystals.
For high-level lords who need a lot of source crystals to study scientific research projects and upgrade buildings, it is even more necessary to increase the price of source crystals, otherwise they will definitely exchange them crazily.
"This is just a rough price, and it needs to be adjusted according to the specific situation of the trade." Li Tingyu said again.
"Indeed." Shen Fei nodded.
It must be said that the operating space of pricing power and the benefits that can be obtained are really too large.
Shen Fei was even a little fortunate at this moment.
Fortunately, he established order early and ensured the safety of ordinary lords.
These lords are all markets!
