Chapter 3709 Shining Show
The process of creating Modern Coins through “landscape experts” was… both smooth and not smooth.
The success lies in that he can produce small amounts of Modern Coins.
For example, Modern Coin, which represents a quota of "1", can be created by Angel at will, provided that the heat points can keep up.
However, when Angle tried to produce large amounts of Modern Coins, he encountered difficulties.
Because of the large amount of Modern Coin, the mint's digital anti-counterfeiting code appeared.
The largest denomination of Modern Coin that Angell has is "50", which has a digital anti-counterfeiting code on it. This code is different for each piece. Angell can use "landscape experts" to produce a small number of 50 Modern Coins, which will not have much impact on circulation; but if he produces and circulates them on a large scale, the mint will definitely find that the anti-counterfeiting code is wrong.
If Angel wants to complete the main mission and random missions, the Modern Coins he needs are in the millions, and they must be produced in large quantities, which will inevitably lead to the problem of anti-counterfeiting coding.
Of course, Angle also thought about creating Modern Coins with higher denominations.
For example, Modern Coin has denominations of "one hundred", "one thousand" and "ten thousand".
If Angel creates the highest value of "10,000" Modern Coins, he only needs 100 of them to complete the random task of "Who is the rich family? I am the rich family!"
But Angel discovered that the anti-counterfeiting measures for such a large-denomination currency are not just digital coding.
There are also extraordinary means.
Angel only had 50 Modern Coins on him, but he checked the Modern Coins of larger amounts through a bird's eye view and found that all the coins with a value of more than one thousand had runes of some kind of fashion magic left over.
This kind of rune is not only anti-counterfeiting, but also can consume the aura in the rune to replenish any type of energy bar.
For example, the energy bar of the variety show elf owned by Angel is: heat point.
Angel can not only increase his heat points through "public opinion and audience feedback", but also restore his heat points by consuming large amounts of Modern Currency runes.
However, under normal circumstances, Fashion Magicians will not use Modern Coins to restore the energy bar.
Because the amount of recovery is very, very small, only when there is an imminent emergency will the runes in the Modern Coins be consumed to restore the energy bar.
The magic runes have more of a function in preventing counterfeiting when it comes to large-denomination modern currency.
In other words, Modern Coin is not a gold-based currency, but a magic-based currency. With this currency, small amounts of Anger can be made at will, but large amounts are out of the question.
But the Modern Coins that Angle needed were large amounts...
Of course, Angel also tried to replicate the magic runes on the large-denomination modern coins. However, the essence of that rune was a magical mark left by some unknown fashion monster.
The texture is not the point, the point is the corresponding fashion magic.
But Ingres had no idea what this fashion magic was, so he had no way of replicating it.
This is why Ingres’s creation of Modern Coin through “landscape experts” was both smooth and unsuccessful.
……
"Small-denomination Modern Coins without anti-counterfeiting codes can be made at will, but large-denomination ones cannot." Angel paused and shook his head: "That's not right. Small-denomination Modern Coins cannot be made at will. They will also consume heat points."
Angel's current heat point reserves cannot keep up with the consumption of Modern Coins.
To sum it up in one sentence.
It seems that it is not possible to rely on "landscape expert" to complete the main mission and random missions. You can only think of other ways to make money.
Angel thought of this and looked towards the wandering house.
Perhaps, the only way to get large amounts of Modern Coins is to disassemble the pages of the book.
The random task of Sisley can obtain the puzzle of "The Clown". Ingres did not have much idea about "The Clown", maybe he could disassemble its pages and sell them for money?
With this thought in mind, he prepared to go to the homeless house first.
But before that, Angel had to destroy the variety show recording made by the "Communication Ambassador" on the crystal stone.
If I leave this thing here, it might be discovered by someone. It would be bad if someone finds it on me.
After destroying the video on the crystal stone, Angel passed through the cracks in the stone and returned to the main road outside.
After walking out from the pool of the wishing tree, Ingres saw the vendor who had set up a stall to sell wishing props.
When the vendor saw Ingres, he immediately came up to him with a smile.
"Guest, have you made your wish?"
Angel didn't answer, but stopped and looked at him: "You seem to be waiting for me here? Something?"
The vendor immediately praised him: "As expected of a customer who can spend a hundred yuan in one go, he really has a keen eye..."
Angel interrupted, "If you have something to say, just say it."
The vendor immediately stopped flattering, came up to Angel, and whispered, "When I learned that the customer wanted to participate in the lottery, I immediately asked someone to go to the homeless house to ask. I found that the number of people waiting for the lottery had reached more than 600, and now it is estimated that the number has reached thousands."
"If customers go there now, they may have to wait in line for hours before they can win a prize."
"And I have a few connections..."
At this point, the vendor paused and gave Angel a look that said "you know what I mean."
At first, Angel was a little confused about what the vendor was talking about, until the vendor looked at the "shining show" over at the homeless house, and Angel immediately understood.
When Angel bought the wishing props from him before, the vendor asked Angel what wish he wanted to make.
Angel’s answer is: draw a card to get gold, and draw a lottery to get the first prize.
The vendor didn't know what drawing a card meant, but he immediately understood when he heard the word "lottery".
I guess Angle wants to go to the Shining Show stage to draw a prize.
Then, seeing Angel going to the wishing tree to make a wish and the number of people lining up at the Shining Show's raffle draw increasing, his eyes lit up and he thought of a way to make money.
Angel raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean, you can get me a number quickly?"
The vendor nodded immediately: "Yes, I have a few friends who are also queuing up for the lottery. Some of them are at the top of the queue. I asked them, and they don't really want to participate in the lottery. If someone is willing to pay for their number, they are willing to give up their position..."
Ingres understood immediately that this was a scalper.
This vendor is really good at doing business. If Angle really went to the Glitter Show to draw a prize, he might have been instigated by him. Unfortunately, he is not...
Angel shook his head at the vendor: "No, I..."
Before Angel could finish his words, a sharp cry suddenly came from the homeless house.
Everyone around looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a young woman standing at the raffle table on the side of the shining show, her body trembling, her hands covering her mouth, her eyes fixed on a raffle ticket in her hand.
The one who made the sharp scream just now was this woman.
Just as Angel was puzzled, a loud noise erupted around the lottery table—
"First prize! It's first prize!"
Although the shining stage was still some distance away from them, the excited voice still came over.
Even the vendors heard the noise over there.
His expression was full of envy. “I didn’t expect someone to win the first prize on the first day. It is said that the first prize is a spider suit from the Shining Series. If it is sold in this mall, it will cost at least tens of thousands.”
Tens of thousands? Angel's eyes flashed with surprise: "Is the shiny suit so expensive?"
The vendor looked at Angel suspiciously and said, "Aren't you going to draw a lottery? Don't you know the price of the shiny suit?"
Although he was puzzled, the vendor did not ask any questions. He just followed Angel's question and replied, "The Wanzhao Group has a large number of die-hard fans throughout the Modern City. The shiny suits they release are very popular both on the surface and in the underground districts."
"And the first prize spider suit is the latest suit developed by Wanzhao Group, so it is naturally expensive."
After a pause, the vendor continued, "However, the most valuable prize in this lottery is not the first prize Spider Suit, but the third prize..."
Angel looked over in confusion: "Is the first prize less expensive than the third prize?"
The vendor nodded. "Yes. Just look at the queue over there and you'll know. There's only one first prize this time. Normally, when someone wins, the queue will naturally disperse. But right now, the queue over there hasn't dispersed because the vast majority of them aren't here for the first prize, but the third prize."
Angel: "What's the third prize?"
The vendor could now confirm that Angel had made a wish to touch the first prize, and that the first prize here should have nothing to do with the shining show stage.
Otherwise, how could Angle know nothing about the Shining Show.
It seems that it is unlikely that he will be able to sell a queue number to Angel.
Although the business might not be done, the vendor did not walk away in dismay. After all, Ingres was a "big customer". Even if he couldn't do the business today, there might be opportunities for cooperation in the future.
So, in response to Angel's question, the vendor replied seriously.
"The third prize allows the winner to take away a shiny suit of any kind." The vendor paused and said, "However, the shiny suit here is not something you wear, but a model of a shiny suit."
The vendor gestured with his hands and said the model was only a few dozen centimeters in size and was worn on the body of the Wanzhao Group's mascot.
Ingres immediately understood...got it, a figurine.
Vendor: "This kind of model is not too expensive when sold outside, ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand. The reason why the hidden value of the third prize is more expensive than the first prize is that the third prize winner can choose any model."
"On the market, some of the shiny set models produced by Wanzhao Group are sold openly, while others are sold in limited quantities. Once the limited-edition ones are sold out, they will be out of print..."
At this point, Ingres already understood.
The third prize allows people to choose those out-of-print figures.
For those who play with figures, they are willing to collect out-of-print figures even at a high premium.
Ingres knew very well that this limited sale was a ploy used by the merchants. It was definitely not really out of print, otherwise how could anyone be allowed to choose the third prize?
However, some die-hard model lovers just like this.
The more limited it is, the more you should buy it.
The more out of print, the crazier it is.
Angel: "So, the people lining up are here for the out-of-print model?"
The vendor shook his head and nodded again: "It can't be said that all of them are for the out-of-print model, but now that the first prize has been taken, the remaining people can only be for the out-of-print model."
Angell: "Which out-of-print model is the most expensive?"
The vendor replied subconsciously, "If you want to talk about expensive things, it must be the Blazing Sword model of the Silver Wing series. Although the Silver Wing Blazing Sword model was limited to a thousand sets at the time, which is more than the limited edition models of a hundred sets, its appearance is so attractive that it has become popular in the entire model-playing circle."
"I heard that someone was willing to spend 100,000 Modern Coins to buy the Silver Wing Blazing Sword model."
When talking about "one hundred thousand Modern Coins", the vendors' eyes were dazzled. This is one hundred thousand Modern Coins. If it is placed in some small underground blocks, it can probably buy an entire street!
And something worth 100,000 Modern Coins is just a model that cannot be worn or used.
All we can say is that people cannot share the same joys and sorrows; the consumption concepts of the poor and the rich are like a world apart.
While the vendor was sighing, Angel asked, "How much is the front row number you mentioned?"
The vendor was stunned: "What?"
Aren’t we talking about out-of-print models? Why are we suddenly talking about queuing again?
Angel: "I plan to try the lottery. I just made a wish, and now the King of Luck is looking after me. Maybe I can win the third prize."
Merchant: "..."
Seeing how confident Ingres was, the vendor was already complaining in his heart, but he still didn't want to criticize him on the surface.
"It depends on which queue number the customer wants. I know quite a few friends who have queues from the first 100 to the first 600."
"If you want a number between 400 and 600, it only costs four Moden coins."
"Every time you add a range, you get two more Moden coins."
"For the first hundred numbers... ten Modern Coins."
For vendors, this price has actually been quoted upwards, after all, it’s just a queue.
But in Angle's opinion, the price is still good and it saves a lot of time.
Moreover, he only needs less than 0.1 heat points to produce ten Moden coins, which is quite cost-effective.
However, Angel had ready-made Modern Coins on him, so he didn't need to make coins. He directly took out ten Modern Coins from his pocket and handed them to the merchant.
The vendor saw this and his eyes flashed with joy. He immediately said, "Customer, please follow me!"
Under the guidance of the vendor, Angel soon arrived at the shining show stage near the homeless house.
The shining show stage has two parts. One part is to display the shining suits on the models. With various alloy mechas on them, it looks really cool.
The other part is the lottery stand at the edge of the stage.
A large number of speculators gathered here, and they got queue numbers after being registered by the staff.
When your number is called, you can go up and draw the lottery.
