I was excommunicated from the Holy Knights

33 – Government-recognized legal gambling establishments

As a large city and a thriving commercial place, Münchel has a lot of things that can’t be found in small rural villages or medium-sized cities.

There was one special place that could only be seen in the big cities of the Holy Empire.

Branch Exchange.

From a modern concept, this place, which can be called a primitive real estate relay station, was a place to facilitate transactions between land and buildings, which are very frequent due to the characteristics of large cities.

Through this facility, instead of deducting a certain fee, land and building documents can be immediately sold according to the market price, and the land and buildings sold in this way are displayed like household goods and sold to others according to the appropriate market price.

Of course, the fees incurred in the process were not cheap, but nonetheless, the facility became a place where people who wanted to sell land or purchase buildings almost inevitably visited.

The reason was simple.

If the transaction between land and buildings is traded with a clear trace, it is easier for the lord to collect taxes and the risk of tax evasion is reduced. A situation that provides benefits.

In addition, although the commission is deducted from the seller’s point of view, it was worth using it in that you can receive cash almost immediately, and from the buyer’s point of view, it is not bad in that you can easily select and purchase the land and buildings you want, and even provide tax relief. It was also a choice.

However, there was another reason why this facility was decisively prosperous…

This was due to the price of land and buildings that fluctuated on a weekly basis, which in turn added another character to this primitive property.

The so-called.. nature of ‘legal gambling’.

It fluctuates on a weekly basis in the Gaji Exchange,

The price of real estate and buildings that suddenly rise or fall for some reason, even though the fall is not large.

In other words, this primitive real estate has the characteristics of a modern stock market or Bitcoin.

It has made it have some of the characteristics of ‘legal gambling’, which is commonly referred to as

For this reason, among those who use the facility, there are quite a few people who buy and sell real estate for the purpose of so-called speculation.

Those who buy real estate at the lowest possible price, wait for the real estate market price to rise in the area, and then sell it at a high price.

From the exchange’s point of view, this kind of move by speculators was an act that seemed to be able to inflict considerable damage from the standpoint of receiving and giving money by being caught in the middle.

However.. Looking at the inside story, there was no reason to dislike or restrict these speculators from the exchange’s point of view.

As there is a saying that the person who makes the most money in a casino is the casino president, no matter how hard the speculators try, few of them get money, and most of them shed tears at the sight of blood and rather try to prevent losses by any means. There were many cases of selling real estate at a bargain price.

In other words, in the end, this is a situation in which the exchange, which constantly collects fees regardless of whether the other party loses or wins, has no choice but to benefit the most.

In this regard, the exchange was leading the work even harder by mobilizing some of the graphs that inform the changing real estate market prices to further encourage the speculators’ false hopes, and even some of the windbreakers who subtly encourage speculators from the side.

In this way, through the vain hopes of speculators and the fair fees of those who genuinely want to buy and sell land, the Gaji Exchange was known as one of the places that accumulated the greatest wealth here in Munich. At the same time, people who wanted to buy and sell real estate in front of the exchange.

And with numerous exchange employees dealing with them, they were in the process of forming a doorway to this day.

Simple convenience for some.

hope for someone

joy for someone

By giving someone else a sense of despair.

And, she hides and watches from afar where so many people’s joys and sorrows intersect.

Cazeros, who had been going through a series of situations as my substitute, was feeling nervous.

“There is nothing to be so nervous about. With this, I have almost passed the difficult part.”

“Is that… that… is it?”

“Yes, of course. In fact, the part I was most worried about seemed to have been resolved.”

I gently soothe Cazeros, who is unable to hide his anxiety.

To be honest, the ‘Heretic Questioner with a solid grip’ was near-perfect until this point. It was Cazeros who showed her acting, but at this moment she was with me, she returned to her normal, timid paladin girl.

She might not know it in front of other people, but in front of me, she seems to be comfortable expressing her true feelings.

And, seeing her like this, I was feeling pretty cute about this woman in front of me again.

‘It’s the same when I defended Shylock the other day, and it’s the same this time… Looking at it like this, I have a really good personality, but I feel like an actor who is incredibly good at acting?’

As I was thinking about it, a question suddenly popped into my head.

‘Come to think of it… How did Cazeros live before becoming a paladin?’

Suddenly thinking about it now, I realized that I knew very little about the past of Cazeros.

Of course, in order to become a paladin, at least 2-3 years of training and study as a priest was required, so what happened during that period was roughly predictable, but little was known about her life before that.

However, it is clear that we are not from Milan or the Holy Empire.

At that point, I suddenly remembered the reaction she had when she talked about our destination, the Dragona Empire.

‘At that time, Cazeros’ expression seemed to be quite bad… What really happened there?…’

Still, it didn’t seem like it was dangerous or anything like that, judging from the fact that he didn’t openly oppose it.

Anyway, from my point of view, even if it is impossible right now, it is an issue that needs to be looked into at least once when the opportunity arises.

So, putting aside my thoughts on this part for now, I looked at Heretic Questioner Lipton, who was just coming out with a smile on his face.

‘He likes it, really… So even in modern times, there are a lot of guys who got a taste for it and ruined it by abusing it.’

While thinking about that, I once again tried the method I used to seduce the man named Lipton in front of me this time…

In relation to those who ruin and destroy everything under the name of heresy, I started thinking about the ‘method’ that could make me make a lot of money… and at the same time, it was filthy and dangerous.

In modern times, when capitalism, which uses money to make money, has developed to an extreme, the way to make money has also developed in a frighteningly diverse way.

Stocks and bonds are just the very basics.

The so-called derivatives that evolved from there increased the size of the circulating capital several times, dozens of times.

The ignorant development of economics that allows you to do things worth 100,000 won to 10 million won with 100,000 won.

In fact, as more than 10 times the amount of funds actually being operated in the current financial asset market is made up of derivatives that exist as ‘imaginary numbers’ on these papers, the influence was terrifying.

Of course, this has created many problems and has always contained potential risks, as it has even caused a large-scale economic crisis. got to make

A theory of economics that allows you to buy what you want even if you don’t have a single penny on hand.

And among them… there was also a theory containing a paradox that could create a winner from the ashes,

I used this to ‘design’ this operation.
