Chapter 463 - The Prosperity Of The Altroans
Chapter 463 – The Prosperity Of The Altroans
"Oh, a traveler from the Primitus Continent. Welcome," the receptionist smiled.
She was a beautiful woman and was well-endowed at her chest. Similar to the receptionist back at the Primitus Continent, she was chosen because males were more likely to listen to her.
"Hello," Lawrend responded back with a smile.
When Humility saw Lawrend flirting with the receptionist, she grabbed his arm and embraced it. She was showing the receptionist that he was already hers.
"Ahahaha…" the receptionist laughed lightly and rubbed the back of her ears.
"So, how much is it?" Lawrend asked.
"It is two gold coins for 1 Alt Coin," the receptionist replied.
"Woah? Isn't that a big difference?" Lawrend asked.
"The Undrasil Kingdom is on the better side of the conversion. Sometimes we give more Alt Coins per gold coin if it's from an empire," the receptionist explained.
"Oh, I see. That makes sense then."
Lawrend nodded his head in understanding. With her explanation, he was able to accept it.
Even back in his previous world, money was not equal for every country. It was definitely reasonable for the gold coins of an empire to be worth more than the gold coins of a kingdom.
"Here."
Lawrend started stacking gold bills on the counter. Each stack would not faze the receptionist, but she became shocked when the stack reached 20. Those stacks of gold bills contained at least 10,000 gold!
Still, Lawrend didn't stop. Although it wasn't mentioned, Nao made a lot of money for Lawrend through the months that he was practicing magic back in the Undrasil Kingdom.
There were even more potions in her storage ring now. She couldn't sell them since they were in the middle of the ocean.
After about 50 stacks of 10,000 gold bills, Lawrend stopped. He still had more, but he figured that they wouldn't spend that much money here anyway. They would merely stay here for several months.
"C-Customer, you should've said that you had this much money. We could have processed this at the back," the receptionist said as she felt pressured by the amount of money in front of her.
The eyes of the others in the bank were starting to change as they thought about the huge amount of money laid in front of them. Humans were not resistant to temptation. Some of them would naturally have some ideas about it.
"It's alright. I don't mind," Lawrend replied.
If any of them dared to rob them, they would be making a mistake. With his strength, he could fight against a Grand Mage and win. Not to mention, Aezel was with him.
"S-Sure! I will get everything ready!" the receptionist shouted and started grabbing the stacks of gold bills.
She put them in a new storage ring.
Lawrend waited for almost a minute before she finished. After that, she left.
They waited for another minute before she came back. She then passed him a new storage ring.
Lawrend looked inside it and confirmed that there were coins inside. He made one appear in his hand, and he examined it.
At the front, there was a symbol of a triangle on it with a star at the center. As for the back, there was a symbol of a staff.
"What does the triangle mean?" Lawrend asked.
"The triangle is the strongest shape in all of creation. It appears everywhere. As for the star, it symbolizes that the Altroan Federation will last for eternity." the receptionist placed her hands on her hips proudly. "And the staff symbolizes the path that the Altroans chose: To find the truth with magic."
"I see. That's pretty amazing," Lawrend replied with slight awe on his face.
Just the coin sounded awesome. What amazing things would this new continent bring him? Lawrend can't wait to find out more.
"Thank you for your patronage," the receptionist said and bowed to him.
"Thanks, too. Goodbye," Lawrend replied and left with his maids.
"Master, should we also make the same coin? But even more awesome?" Humility asked with a look of excitement on her face.
As the one involved with royalty here, she was very excited to implement such a coin in the Undrasil Kingdom. It would boost the morale of its citizens, and it would make their economy worth more than the surrounding kingdoms.
"We could, but it will be expensive to manufacture real coins instead of paper bills," Lawrend replied.
The reason coins went out of favor in his previous world was because they were heavy. It became very convenient for merchants in the past when paper bills were introduced.
"Yeah…" Humility reluctantly nodded her head.
"Don't worry. We can make those designs on the paper bills we will make," Lawrend said to comfort her.
"Hehehehe. Thank you, Master," Humility giggled.
"Okay. Let's find a nearby inn. That inn we found earlier was too far," Lawrend said as he looked around.
They saw several inns on their way here, and there should be others that were near here. So, he picked a direction and walked towards it.
Before long, they found another inn. It looked even more advanced than the previous one.
"How much for a single night?" Lawrend asked the innkeeper.
"10 Alt Coin for a single room," the innkeeper replied without much emotion.
"How many can fit in that room?"
"About 6. The two beds can fit three people each," the innkeeper answered.
"I see. Then, here. Give me 2," Lawrend said and passed him 12 Alt Coins.
The innkeeper accepted it, grabbed two keys from under the counter, and gave them to him. Lawrend took it, and they headed up.
As they were heading up the stairs, Aezel leaned closer to Lawrend.
"Fufufufu. Master, we haven't done it in a while," she whispered into his ears.
"I suppose I can spoil you girls for a week before I continue my practice again," Lawrend replied and smiled back at her.
Humility winked at him, and he looked back at the others. Most of them were looking at him with eyes filled with lust.
'I probably starved them of their lust…' Lawrend thought to himself and heavily gulped his saliva.
