Goblin Dollar(6)
Upon hearing Rockefeller's words, Ricardo naturally had a question.
It was about blockchain.
"What is this blockchain you speak of?"
"It's hard to explain, but simply put, it's about embedding a public transaction ledger in each Goblin Dollar using magical power."
"A public transaction ledger?"
"Yes, making each Goblin Dollar a ledger that records all transaction history. So, even if a counterfeit one appears, other Goblin Dollars can identify it, making it impossible for fake Goblin Dollars to circulate."
"How will they differentiate?"
"I'm still working on it, but I'm thinking of using color as a distinction. For example, making real ones not react when they co into contact with fake Goblin Dollars, allowing the authenticity of Goblin Dollars to be determined."
"That's fascinating. Being able to distinguish counterfeit Goblin Dollars like that. Or what about putting in so hard-to-recognize markings?"
Rockefeller shook his head at Ricardo's suggestion.
All the existing currencies he knew of were determined to be counterfeit in the way Ricardo ntioned.
"That's a good idea too. But what I ntioned is a more advanced form. It's very difficult for anyone who is not an expert to determine the authenticity of a specific currency. Of course, it would be nice to have such a chanism as well. I'm also planning to devise that."
"Putting a magic spell on the Goblin Dollar to determine its authenticity..."
"It's a chanism that is not necessary for existing gold or silver coins. But in the case of easily counterfeited Goblin Dollars, such a chanism is essential.
"That's true."
"The issue of currency forgery is extrely important. It's one of the things that should never be overlooked."
"I have another question. How do you plan to devise such a magical chanism? It doesn't seem like sothing that can be easily implented."
Although there was the Sinclair family, known as a magical lineage, they could not be fully trusted.
If they had ulterior motives and tampered with the blockchain magic they devised, it would be a problem in its own right.
"I don't trust just anyone. This also applies to the Sinclair family, who are currently sponsoring our Lyon Guild."
Ricardo showed a surprising reaction to his words.
"You don't trust the Sinclair family?"
"How can I know how they will turn out later? Especially since I'm planning to help the Second Prince."
Rockefeller retorted with a faint smile.
"Can you trust them forever? What if they find out that I'm trying to help the Second Prince?"
"Well..."
Rockefeller nodded as if it were a matter of course.
"Since our relationship with them may not be good, we cannot fully trust them. And who can guarantee that they are 100% honest? What would happen if they tampered with the blockchain magic I devised?"
From Ricardo's perspective, Rockefeller was a 100% ordinary person.
He had no magical power, and he was not an ordinary person who had trained his body to the limit.
"As you know, I have no way of knowing anything about magic. I can only be deceived."
"That's a problem."
"So, I've thought of a way around that."
"What is it?"
Rockefeller smiled faintly and told him.
"You're too curious. I still don't know you well. I'm not sure if I can say this to you."
Ricardo seed to agree with that.
He was just a second-ti visitor to his store as an assistant applicant.
He was sohow selected and set out on a journey with him.
"I apologize if I was rude."
"Well, it's not a top-secret matter, so I'll tell you."
Ricardo then showed great interest.
He was curious about how the magic would be implented.
"I plan to entrust it to soone more reliable and certain than the Sinclair family."
He would entrust it to soone other than the Sinclair family?
"I'm curious who will implent the magic you devised."
"There is one person."
"Just one person?"
Ricardo tried to think of so possible candidates.
There was no magician more talented than the magicians from the Sinclair family, which was known as a magical lineage.
'There's no way there is...'
Then, by sheer coincidence.
He thought of one na.
The one who recently pulled the Demon Sword from the Behemoth ruins.
Due to him, the whole continent underwent a huge change, and he had shown his presence.
His na was...
'Lee Han.'
At the mont when he doubted if it could be him.
Rockefeller seed confident in his words.
"I think I can trust that person."
"Do you trust him?"
His skills might be better than those of the Sinclair-affiliated magicians.
But it was not clear whether he could be trusted.
He had heard many rumors about Lee Han.
Judging from those rumors...
'Difficult to trust, right?'
Ricardo's question made Rockefeller shake his head.
He seed to agree.
"I can't... trust him, of course. That's why I'm thinking of approaching him in a different way. But do you know who he is?"
Ricardo quietly shook his head at the question.
"I don't know. I can't even guess."
Rockefeller didn't believe his words.
'Why are you acting like that when you know it.'
"Anyway, I plan to ask him."
Even so, he was trying to get involved with the rumored person.
Although it was not certain whether the person Rockefeller ntioned was the one he thought, if it was, he was very curious about what he was thinking about getting involved with Lee Han.
However, he couldn't ask directly, so he diverted the topic.
"More importantly, how did you co up with that idea?"
"What idea are you talking about?"
"The idea of distinguishing counterfeit Goblin Dollars."
An idea?
It was just sothing he brought from where he lived.
"Well, I had a lot of ti to think by myself, so I thought about how I could distinguish counterfeit currency on my own."
He thought about it on his own.
Well, he's a person who tries to print money out of thin air, so why wouldn't he think about that?
Ricardo accepted it and walked in step with Rockefeller.
