Vol 5 Chapter 44: Dionysian Silver Coin and Institute of Mathematics

One second to remember [pen ♂ fun music], wonderful novels without pop-up window for free reading!
The currency of the Mediterranean trade in this era is gold and silver. The Persians mainly use gold coins, while the Greek city-states do not have so many gold mines. Therefore, they mainly use silver coins. Since each city-state has the power to cast its own silver coins, the currency market in the entire Mediterranean is quite chaotic. The weight of coins issued by different city-states and the purity of silver are not uniform, which brings difficulties to trade, so the exchange will be shipped. Born.
When it comes to exchange, Trito de Moss screams in his heart: the exchange business in the Greek city-state is mainly contracted by banks. The more trade-prosperous city-state, the more developed the banking industry, but in Dionys Although there are many banks in the cities of Asia, they are all part of one person - the wife of Dyna's governor Daves, Christopher. Of course, this is not the result of the administrative intervention that Daves used. Instead, Cly Stoia Bank has taken an average of 15% of the interest rate on the main business loans since the establishment of the Greek city-state. Loan income - that is, five percent.
Although the Christopher Bank destroyed the tacit understanding of the Greek city-state banking industry, the then Amendola Lara and Turiyi were abandoning the new, no big wealthy businessmen came out to obstruct, but because of its low-interest loans, the countless families The small workshops were supported and out of the original predicament, which earned the reputation of the Christopher Bank. Today's trade in Dionia is no longer comparable, and some businessmen have started to open up the bank and are forced to implement low-interest loans in the league, but Christopher Bank has already put its own brand in it. The people of Onia are deeply rooted in people's hearts, and people trust to appreciate it. Therefore, there are often long queues at the entrance of Clyisto Bank, while few other banks have few customers. Normal competition can't be done, it's even more impossible to play other means. Don't forget that Dynas's only lifelong governor, Davis, stands behind the bank of Christopher. Therefore, since the bank does not make money in it, the merchants have to invest in other industries. With the expansion of the Dionysian alliance, the industry that earns more money is fierce, but the bank has only one.
Trito Des Moss looked at the man in front of him. He was already the most powerful person in Dionia at a young age, and a savvy and beautiful wife earned a lot of wealth for him. It is really enviable!
Davers didn't notice the strange look of Trito de Moss. His attention was on the coins. He picked up two silver coins and looked at them almost exactly the same. He asked with concern. "What do you think of the style and pattern of this Dionysian silver coin compared to the Athens silver coin?"
The "Owl" of Athens not only has high purity of silver, but also has a beautiful pattern. Even if it is defeated in Athens and the dissolution of the Delos League, it can no longer force other city-states to use Laurel silver coins, but the merchants and people of the Greek city-states still use it voluntarily. It even has a lot of businessmen who went to Athens to exchange the coins and put them in their own homes as art collections. Therefore, the Laurel silver coin in Athens is the most widely used and most used hard currency in the Greek city-state.

I have repeatedly compared the other people in the Mint Committee with a dozen or so different Laurin silver coins. Everyone agrees that our Dionya coins are as pure and engraving as it is! And –
Trito Demos picked up the silver coins and rubbed the raised edge of his edge. He said excitedly: "The suggestion that the Archon General gave you originally was wonderful. We didn't take the traditional method to make complicated and rough sawtooth. The pattern, but the use of simple edging, not only improves the efficiency, it is not easy to wear, and everyone thinks it is as thick and generous as the temple column! I believe that after the release of the Dionysian silver coins, soon It will be liked by the people!" Trito de Moss said excitedly.
Davers looked calm. The previous design was a suggestion that he borrowed from the characteristics of ancient Chinese coins. There was nothing to be proud of. He was more concerned about whether the Dionysian coins could be quickly circulated and become the main use of southern Italian city-states. The currency, which not only expands the influence of Diaonia, but also dominates the currency distribution rights of the big Greece and controls the economic trade of the southern Italian city-state.
Just like Athens, even in the late Peloponnesian War, trade shrinked, financial difficulties, the reduction of silver ore produced by the Laurie Silver Mine did not reduce the purity of the "owl", and the Athenians insisted on the practice of city-state currency credit. The return. In just a few years after the end of the war, the number of foreign businessmen to the port of Erekhov was more than a year, and the current Athens trade has once again resumed its former prosperity.
"Terry Todd Moss, these months, your coinage committee has put a lot of effort into this little silver coin, hard work! I believe that after the successful release of it, the day the great Greek people accepted, the sage You will leave your name!" Trito Des Moss suddenly got excited when he heard the words of Daves. As the Temple of Hades is about to be built, some special architectural structures in the temple are also spread among the people. For example, there are two partial temples in the temple, one called the Hall of the Spirit, dedicated to the warriors who sacrificed for the safety of the guardian alliance. Another name for the sage, the citizen who made an outstanding contribution to the Alliance, will be engraved in the eyes of the monks... It is said that this is the design of Davis. As a coalition citizen, especially the veterans who do not want to be named after the history, it is inevitable that Trito de Moss can not control the emotions, and is happy.
At this time, a dissatisfied voice sounded: "Since it is the merits of the coinage committee, and there is nothing in our mathematics research institute, what do you want to do next? 'Amendo Lara's original citizenship medal'... and so on, Don't look for us again!
Trito de Moss looked back and saw Marty Collis, busy saying to Daves:
It is possible to make such a beautiful coin, thanks to Matikoris, Mentoti. Kells’s Institute of Mathematics, if it’s not the mint mold they designed, there’s that water...hydraulic...

"It's a hydraulic punching machine!" added Madikeris impatiently.
Trito de Moss coughed and said: "Because they designed these wonderful tools, the coins we made can be so beautiful! Don't say that they have already beaten Pythagoras as Mei. The coins designed by Ta Pontum are comparable to the Athens coins that are famous throughout Greece!"
"This is not all our credit..." It was said that their skills outweighed the founder Pythagoras, and the steady-hearted Mento Tis Els said modestly: "If it wasn't for Davers, you designed it. The waterwheel gave us inspiration, and we wouldn’t think of using hydraulic power instead of manpower. Unfortunately, the power of the Corati River is not big enough to drive the last time you mentioned it. A large hydraulic forging hammer of cast iron."
"See the dam." Daphus blurted out.
"The dam?!" Martin Koris's eyes lit up.
"This thing will be said later." Now the construction of the territory of Dionia is everywhere, the resettlement of Asprostum, Crimea, the construction of the Temple of Hades, the construction of the road, the Crimean The renovation of the Sawan Marshes, the construction of the Turai Thermal Baths... there is no more labor to build more demanding and more complex dams. So Daves opened the subject and said to Trito Des Moss: "Matikoris will not compete with you for this credit, because they are destined to become mathematicians and sages all over Greece. There must be their statues on the raft!"
Faced with such high praise, Marty Collis was also a little embarrassed, he caressed his head, hehe smiled. The performance of Mentotik Els next to him is more stable and it is difficult to cover his excitement.
Terry Todd Moss was sent away, leaving only two guests in the living room, Matikoris and Mentotik Els. Now they are not the ordinary disciples of the Pythagorean school that was high and chilling when they first met. As early as last year, through their efforts in waterwheel manufacturing and free access to mathematics among the people, Davis was in the Senate. At the meeting, the "Introduction Bill for Foreign Scholars" was proposed and passed (plus the previous "Doctors Act" and the subsequent "Teacher's Act". The three major bills that later generations called Dionya to transform the quality of citizens With the passage of time, the geochemical center gradually moved westward, which is a follow-up), making them official citizens of Dionia~EbookFREE.me~ Although they are studying mathematics in Tarantum, It’s not a Tarantum citizen, but a Leightonian from the city of Sicily. It’s only because he loved mathematics and admired Pythagoras, he stayed in Tarantum for a long time, and because his home was occupied by Syracuse, they were In fact, it became a homeless person. This was the main reason why the Pythagorean school sent them to Amendola Lara because they were insignificant to the school. However, in the Dionya League, their status has changed dramatically. Not only do they have land, but they are also respected. Davers also privately funded the establishment of a mathematics institute for them, providing free assistants. Slave and all kinds of materials and funds, so that they are free from outside interference, wholeheartedly devoted to the theoretical research and practical application of mathematics.
The mathematicians of this era did not only study mathematics. They were involved in physics and heaven. For example, Pythagoras had his own ideas in temperament and aesthetics. The famous "golden division point" was first proposed by him. To this end, Daves occasionally puts some demands on the mathematics research institute. Marty Corris is willing to temporarily put aside his research and complete the task assigned by Daves, not because of the power of the consul. Rather, the various instruments envisioned by Daves often involve the use of complex and even novel mathematical and physical knowledge, which is of great benefit to their consolidation and study of mathematical and physical theories.
