X-Dragon Era

Facing Zixia's guess, Xin Yun contemptuously curled his lip, shook his head to indicate she was wrong, but still didn't speak. Witnessing this, Chu Rui's eyes instantly lit up, and she exclaimed, "My God! Could you actually have thirty trillion taels! Almighty heavens... where did you get so much money!"

Facing Chu Rui's exclamation, Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying couldn't help covering their mouths to giggle. Even the usually serious Ming Xuan smiled and shook his head. Obviously... Chu Rui was also wrong, and by a wide margin.

"Hiss..." Realizing the implications of everyone's expressions, Chu Rui finally understood the mistake. Clearly... both thirty billion and three hundred billion were incorrect, and three billion was even less likely. Therefore, there was only one possible answer left—that it must be thirty trillion! My heavens... Now she finally understood why Xin Yun had specifically asked her to handle this task. Releasing such a massive amount of silver into the market would definitely cause a huge shock to the financial market.

After pondering briefly, Chu Rui quickly did some calculations and resolutely said, "Alright, thirty trillion, is it? Leave it to me. In at most three years, I will have completely converted them into an equivalent amount of gold."

Silently watching Chu Rui, Xin Yun grimaced and said, "Indeed... I believe you have the capability, but who told you I have thirty trillion silver taels? Are you sure that answer is correct?"

Staring at Xin Yun with their mouths agape, Chu Rui and Zixia had completely lost their ability to think. Looking at the stupefied girls, Xin Yun shook his head and said, "In fact, I have three quadrillion, that is, thirty trillion taels of silver, and the most time I can give you is three years!"

"Thud..." Chu Rui sat down hard on a chair, utterly unable to think. Three quadrillion taels of silver, how could that be possible! She even doubted whether there was that much silver in circulation in the whole market.

At the same time, Zixia collapsed. What does it mean to have wealth beyond measure? This was it! She originally thought Xin Yun's confidence came from the tax revenue of thirty-six super-large cities. But now she realized that compared to Xin Yun's wealth, that amount was mere pocket change—what did a few billion count for in the face of thirty trillion!

Looking at the dumbfounded girls, Xin Yun shook his head. The number was indeed large, but this was the Primordial World. In comparison, Earth was nothing more than a grain of sand in the Primordial World, the number of living beings here, and their comparison to those on Earth, were incomparable.

Not to mention anything else, just considering the super-large cities with populations over fifteen million, it was impossible to count just how many there were on this world. What Xin Yun knew was only within his reach. In fact... the world Xin Yun knew was still only a grain of sand in the entire Primordial World.

Just how big is the Primordial World? Many have pondered this question. In fact... the so-called Primordial World is the shell of the earth, like the shell of an egg!

In the Chaotic Era, nothing grew. Later, Pan Gu created the world, splitting heaven and earth. Chaos exploded, turning into countless particles, which are the planets!

If chaos is likened to a stone, then the stars are merely the fragments of the shattered stone, while the shell of the earth is the original eggshell that enveloped the complete stone.

That is to say, the space within the earth's shell is exactly equal in size to the combined volumes of all the stars in the universe. From this, one can see that the Primordial World is virtually infinite, and the number of living beings is also infinitely large. Asking about the size of this place is as foolish as asking for the total volume of all stars combined.

Xin Yun was able to amass so much silver because, over the past period, the Wave Valley Five Rats were incessantly busy, virtually emptying all the known silver mines within his reach. The stockpiles of silver in the major mines, accumulated for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, had been thoroughly plundered by these five. As Chu Rui imagined, all the silver in the outside world might not even amount to what Xin Yun possessed, which was no exaggeration.

If converted to the context of Earth, it was as if these five had robbed the vaults of all nations, emptying all their gold reserves. Once this gold is dumped onto the market, the impact would be immeasurable.

Difficult... extremely difficult, nearly impossible! To convert all three quadrillion taels of silver into gold would likely make the price of silver plummet to a distressing level, making an equal exchange fundamentally unattainable.(To be continued.
