Two hours later.

In a coffee in Pale City.

Anna, Audrey, Helena, and Karen were resting while they ate some desserts and relaxed with a coffee.

It had been several months since they arrived in Pale City and they could not believe that this city was so magical having hundreds of things that in their native Kingdom would have been something exclusive of the rich and n.o.ble but here even the simplest settler would have the same luxuries and in fact the rich had other great luxuries.

This was a big blow for Anna and Audrey but the worst was that they found out that only Pale City's economy was ten times bigger than the economy of Alba and Snow Kingdom united!

Besides that everything was much easier here, they had banks and all kinds of services. There were also large food markets so food was no problem while one worked and had a good salary.

This was just a small city like many other countless cities of the Republic, since only the Uri Republic was 100 times bigger than Alba Kingdom almost twice as big as a northern state!

As far as Anna knew the capitals of the northern states could only be cla.s.sified in the Uri Republic as middle cities!

This was a hard blow for Anna who had never left her Region. Now she could only feel small and insignificant.

"Bzzzz"

Soon his communicate rang and Anna saw him with interest. These days he only received notices from Banco Alpha with large amounts of withdrawals and deposits but when he saw this deposit he could not avoid seeing the number with disbelief.

[Deposit Monetary Account 109-302-22-7-x.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.x]

[Amount: 20,000,000 Gold Coins]

[Type: Bank Transfer]

"Pfffff"

Anna undoubtedly let her coffee out of the Mouth watching her communicator in a static way. Without believing what he saw.

20 million!

Before reaching the Uri Republic his fortune was a total of 15 million gold coins but now only his son in twenty days won nearly 30 million gold in a few days!

Double your fortune!

Her son was only 11 years old and was already much richer than herself. Now he felt that all his years as a merchant were nothing but jokes.

In his native land, there were people with that amount of fortune but they were all people who had acc.u.mulated this fortune through decades of efforts like the old Walter who had been working for more than 50 years to create a nine-digit fortune. In other words, those who had that kind of fortune were all old farts who worked all their lives for it.

But here the definition of that fortune was relative because people who had a nine-digit fortune were numerous even if it was a nine-digit fortune of white gold coins.

That is to say that his 15 million here in the deadly countries was just a drop in the ocean and nothing more.

In recent days Alexander had told her and she had also investigated that only the ruling powers were super rich since only in taxes each one earned 10,000 million Gold! without talking about their own businesses scattered throughout the Republic.

Only then did Anna understand why even in those powers the Elemental experts were very common and as numerous as the clouds.

The financial and natural resources available to his disciples were very rich!

Especially the four clans that from what Anna found out every time a woman from her clan was pregnant gave her a mixed embryo pill that helped clean impurities from the embryo with only one goal, boost the innate talent of her descendants. So if your last name was one of the four ruling clans, it is safest for you to have no problem entering the Elemental Realm!

The other powers did the same but only if they were second-generation disciples, that is, children of Elders, Deacons or similar.

This was because that pill was a 2-Rank pill valued at 10,000 gold coins per pill and that alone the price of the middle-grade pill.

Among the "Mundane" powers only a few could afford one or two of these pills would be very limited because this pill should be exported from abroad and the ruling powers greatly restrict the income of these pills so if one wanted to buy one of these Pills would have to buy it on the black market at double the price or go abroad for one and bring it back.

Ten thousand could sound very little for the great fortunes of the Republic but most of those fortunes had great families and when it was said big was great that as far as Anna knew only the youngest generation of each ruling power could reach a whopping of 15 thousand members minimum.

Since there were tens of thousands of external disciples, Thousands of internal disciples, Hundreds of central disciples and dozens of Golden Core disciples.

And if each of the babies got an embryo pill each power would have to spend 150 million gold coins! Something very expensive.

After all, the powers did not want to divide into pie into nine pieces instead of Eight and if there was another power that could equal them or they would have to exterminate it or give part of the benefits of the taxes.

Anna did not know what her son had done, but to get paid 20 million, the most certain thing is that she did something great.

In these last days Alexander made Karen buy several industrial machines with some books of varied themes and Audrey bought several types of herbs, while Ella and Helena went to the craft guild to go to order more than 5,000 Array flags of 1- Rank.

Anna thought that all the artisans in the City were working on this. Since the Craftsmen's Guild divided the order into one hundred missions of 50 flags each.

Each flag was worth a thousand gold coins so Alexander had spent half a million on the flags alone, plus everything Alexander had spent on all the industrial equipment. In total, he could have spent more than a million gold coins.

The rest of that money, Alexander invested in future contracts on spiritual stones.

Anna was surprised at the idea of ​​free-floating of the banks on the spiritual stones.

The banks have two prices when it came to spiritual stones, the sale price and the purchase price. The retail price is the lowest and the purchase price the lowest.

The Buy/sale price of the ninth grade stones was:

Buy: 9.90 (9 gold coins and 99 silver coins)

Sale: 10.02 (10 gold coins and 2 silver coins)

Anna did not know why Alexander had asked that she made futures contracts with the bank, It was as if she knew that the value of the spiritual stones will increase, but how is this possible?
