Gold and Silver Alchemist chapter 19

Gold and Silver Alchemist 19

‘4.5 tons per month!’

I had never thought of gold in ‘ton units’ because I had lived a life where even one dollar (3.75g) of gold was precious.

“How long will it take for the factory to upgrade to level 100?”

“Assuming it continues to operate, it will be upgraded to the final stage of stage 100 in the next 2,058 days.”

2,058 days, approximately 5 years and 6 months.

From then on, if you cannot cover the consumption of 4.5 tons per month, you will suffer from extreme hunger.

4.5 tons per month was 54 tons in one year and 540 tons in 10 years.

Even if he is eternal and nabal and wants to live until he is 80 years old, he needs about 2,700 tons of gold.

2,700 tons of gold!

‘Is there that much gold on earth?’

I had never thought about how much gold reserves the world had in my life.

But now I was very curious.

When I wake up from a lucid dream, I’ll have to search for that first.

‘by the way.’

I asked the manager with an annoyed look.

“Why should I feel hungry when the storehouse runs out of gold? Who decided that?”

If you don’t feel hungry, you don’t have to collect gold like someone is chasing you.

If there is no gold, how good would it be to set up a factory for a while and start it again when there is gold?

The manager replied with an expression of why he asked something obvious.

“It was Alan who created the elixir brewing system. You’re the one who set it up to feel hungry when you run out of gold.”

It was an answer I had already expected, but I couldn’t contain my anger.

“So, why the hell did you do that!”

after-

He took a breath and let go of his anger.

No matter how hard I tried, nothing was solved.

And it wasn’t that I couldn’t guess why Alan did it.

The manager came closer to me and spoke in a soft voice.

“Make the tree fully grown. Then you will know the secret to eternal life as well as how to solve hunger. The reason Alan made the hunger is to make you grow the tree faster, not to bother you on purpose.”

At her words, I nodded lightly.

“Let’s go to the backyard, the tree is ready to impart another piece of knowledge to you.”

I followed the manager out into the backyard.

A young tree was giving off a bright light.

19 of the 20 leaves turned red.

I put my finger on the last remaining green leaf.

pat-

A bright light emanated from the leaves.

And a magical knowledge entered my head.

It was <psychic power> that allows you to move objects at will without touching them.

If you use telekinesis on yourself, you can levitate your body in the air.

that you can fly in the sky

Oh yeah!

My mood suddenly improved.

***

When I opened my eyes, bright light was coming in through the cracks in the curtains.

I checked the wall clock and it was 11:00 AM.

Is it because I drank soju after a long time? overslept

I didn’t want to get up right away, so I rolled up the blanket and hugged it, but a thought suddenly crossed my mind.

jump-

I kicked off the blanket and raised my upper body.

‘Telekinesis!’

I’ve learned a new magic, so I’ll have to try it.

I reached for the small refrigerator in the hotel room.

jump-

The door is open.

‘oh my god!’

Then, he threw a bottle of mineral water in the refrigerator into the air.

‘Iluwa.’

The water bottle flew slowly towards me.

I glared at the lid of the mineral water bottle that had reached my nose.

Tadadak-

The lid was turned and opened.

I took the water bottle in my hand and drank it cool.

Beep beep-

I ate it all without leaving a single sip.

He then tossed the empty bottle into the trash.

hiss-

It flew by drawing a parabola.

However, the direction was slightly off.

I used <Psychokinesis> to correct the trajectory of the empty bottle.

fits-

It went right into the trash can.

hahahaha!

Magic is a really good thing.

Thanks to <Psychokinesis>, I won’t be bored for a while.

As I was laughing like that, another thought crossed my mind.

‘Gold!’

It reminded me of the decision to find out how much gold reserves the world holds.

I picked up my cell phone by my bedside and started browsing the internet.

Information about the amount of gold held and mined by mankind as a whole began to emerge.

‘There was a lot of gold!’

The amount of gold was greater than expected.

The total amount of gold mined by mankind so far throughout history has been about 190,000 tonnes.

With that amount, a 100-stage factory could operate for over 3,500 years.

Also, between 2,500 and 3,000 tonnes of new gold was being mined worldwide each year.

It was much more than the annual consumption of 54 tons of a 100-step plant.

Whoop-

At first, I let out a sigh of relief.

I don’t think you need to dig down to the center of the earth or go into space to find gold.

The amount of gold held by each country’s central bank was also significant.

US reserves amounted to 8,000 tonnes.

The Bank of Korea had about 100 tons of gold bars, but they do not keep gold bars in Korea, but they are consigned to the Bank of England.

The Central Bank of England stores gold bullion from several countries, so thousands of tons of gold bars are piled up in London’s underground vaults.

Later, if you are so hungry that you run out of gold, will you go to England and shake it off?

Then you can distribute for over 100 years.

I don’t care if serious chaos is caused to the world economy because of me.

Until now, the world has not looked after my situation, so why do I need to look at the situation of the world?

food-

But such a bold act should be done in fantasy, not in action.

Because my skills are still lacking.

If you make a mistake while doing such a big thing, you will be chased by Interpol, and if you use Alan’s emergency card in every crisis, your lifespan will decrease and eventually die at an early age.

If you keep learning various magic by growing trees and increasing your elixir stockpile, there will come a day when you can steal a huge amount of gold.

So until then, let’s not do anything stupid.

.

.

.

I took a bath in the hotel sauna and got my hair cut at the hair salon.

‘handsome!’

There was a reason to polish off the time.

We will take a photo to reissue your ID.

His face had changed so much that he had many difficulties in using his current ID.

Whether buying a house or signing a rental agreement, ID is essential.

The purchase of gold bars also required identification.

You have to do some banking work.

So, the first thing to do was to reissue the ID.

Lululala-

After washing and styling, I felt very good when I left the hotel.

Suddenly, I remembered the old days.

There were many times when I worked overtime until late, came home at dawn, couldn’t sleep for several hours, and then went back to work.

At that time, I couldn’t even wash properly, so I left the single room with my hair tangled.

There was such a contrast between then and now.

‘I don’t know how I lived like that back then.’

I didn’t buy it because I had great patience.

It was like that because there was no other way.

As I walked while reminiscing about the bitter old days, a photo studio caught my eye.

with my daughter-

When I opened the door and went inside, the owner of the photo studio greeted me.

“welcome.”

“I want to take a picture of my ID.”

“Sit over there.”

I sat on a chair in front of the camera.

The photographer who was looking at my face from an angle opened his mouth.

“Are you trying to change your ID card picture?”

“yes.”

“It doesn’t look like you’ve had plastic surgery…”

“yes?”

“These days, there are many customers who have plastic surgery and take new ID photos. Especially in this neighborhood, there are more.”

“Oh yeah?”

I was worried that if the face changed too much, it would be a problem for reissuing the ID card, but there was no need for that.

There are many people who undergo plastic surgery and change ID photos.

.

.

.

I took the photo and went straight to the community center.

ID reissuance was possible at any nearby community center, even if it was not the jurisdictional community center.

I received a ‘temporary ID’ because it took about 20 days to receive a new ID.

The temporary ID card has the same effect as the ID card for the period of absence of the ID card.

I took it and went straight to the bank.

Since it was a weekday, there were a lot of people waiting with a number ticket.

I went straight into <Premier Lounge>.

I’ve never been inside, but I straightened my shoulders and went in confidently.

The money in my bank account right now was 36 billion won.

When you watch movies or dramas, people with tens of billions of won in their bank accounts come to the bank manager and directly respond to customers.

“How can I help you?”

“I came to withdraw money. Change the check card too.”

“Did you bring your card?”

I handed the old card to the employee.

Tadadak-

The eyes of the clerk who looked up my account by tapping on the keyboard got fat.

.

.

.

“One of our employees has a barista license, so I made it myself. I don’t know if it will suit your taste.”

Guided by the lounge staff, I entered the branch manager’s office.

I got a cup of coffee from the branch manager and raised my check card limit and applied for a credit card.

The branch manager suggested signing up for a financial product, but I just refused.

And withdrew 1 billion won in cash.

I was trying to leave a withdrawal record in advance because I would continue to use cash in the future.

You could be called to the Financial Supervisory Service if someone reports that you spend money in your inventory.

At that time, it was to reveal the exact source of the money.

I didn’t even withdraw it, but it doesn’t make sense to spend a bunch of money.

I came out of the bank carrying two 007 bags with cash in each bag, 500 million won.

One of them was put in the inventory.

And he went straight to the gold exchange.

I will buy a gold bar.

I’ve never bought one, so let’s just buy 500 million won to taste it today.

With 500 million, you could buy six 1kg gold bars at today’s market price.

I entered the gold exchange and sat in front of the teller.

“How can I help you?”

“I’m here to buy physical gold.”

In the gold industry, real gold is called ‘physical gold’, and gold that is bought and sold electronically is called ‘paper gold’.

“Did you know that VAT is charged when buying real gold?”

Each country has different laws, but in Korea, when you buy real gold, such as a gold bar, you have to pay a value-added tax of 10% of the gold price.

So, in order to save this VAT, there are cases where gold bars are traded from person to person in the used market, but it has become a social problem, leading to crimes such as tax evasion, money laundering, and fake gold fraud.

Anyway, since you’re buying a gold bar for the first time, let’s buy FM.

“How true are you?”

At the employee’s question, I opened a 007 bag and showed it to him.

“This much.”

Then, the employee opened his mouth a little surprised.

“Young people have a lot of money. Please wait a moment.”

I waited just as the staff told me to wait.

After about 15 minutes,

rumble-

Suddenly, several cops burst into the gold exchange.

they shouted at me

“Stay still!”

The police why me!

I was surprised and at the same time I had all sorts of thoughts.

Did you get caught running around with Chairman Kim’s money?

However, completely nonsensical words came out of the policeman’s mouth.

“You are urgently arrested for voice phishing!”
