"Do you make anything but silver?"

Think about the future of Vulcan Bank.

Until now, the Balkan Bank had been the issuer of its own currency, which only operated in a small fraction of the country.

But that also changes.

It is the main currency used in the growing Fontana kingdom and the church where the headquarters are now located.

At that time, it would be hard to use only silver coins.

A new mine was also discovered in the Baltic Territory, the territory of the part-time brother.

We don't know the size of the reserve, but it seems to be producing gold.

So from now on, it is possible to make gold and bronze as well as silver coins.

Let's increase the variation.

Let's get the painter to think about the design of the coin.

"So, thank you, painter. I'm going to make a few new kinds of gold, silver, and bronze coins, so please give me your designs."

"Fufufufu. I'll take care of it, Mr. Vulka. I already have some for this."

"Oh, that's right. You're smart."

"But don't you need a coin now?

"Hmm? What do you mean?

"It may only be Vulcania, but I think there are many opinions that metal coins are heavy. If the voucher you receive when you deposit it with a Vulcan bank is thin paper, is it easier to exchange it on a daily basis?

"Oh, you mean the banknotes are better. It's a tough place. I think it would be more convenient, but there are various problems such as counterfeiting and credibility. If it had been completely peaceful, it would have been."

"Do you still think it's safer to have gold and silver?

"At least you're better off on land other than Fontana. In the meantime, there is still a great danger in switching money to banknotes. Now I'm going to use a metal coin, so I'm going to say hello."

"I see. If that's the case, we'll get it ready soon."

When I talked to the painter Moshe about making coins, he mentioned banknotes.

As far as Vulcania is concerned, painters may actually use coupons more often than coins.

Because Balkan banks have a deposit system that keeps money.

If you keep the money in a place called a bank, you will receive paper like a deposit certificate.

Some people are using it for trading.

But it's only about Vulcania, and even if it's a replacement, it's not a decent note.

Paper money is still premature outside of Balka.

Therefore, we use gold, silver, and copper to make money.

I asked the painter for a design for that purpose.

"That's what I heard. I hear you've developed a new method of drawing. I think the painting of the main business will be more popular."

"Fufufufu. Yes, Mr. Balka. Even I can't stay with Mr Barca forever. Everyone will be a mastermind. That's what I've been working on."

"No, you really did your best. Clarice liked it a lot. What kind of technique?

"That's right. It was musician Cleon who inspired it. He puts magic on the sound. I wondered if I could do the same thing in painting."

I told him that I was a little concerned about the painter who asked me to work.

While this painter has become famous for commissioning me a lot of work, the situation that I have never been able to accomplish as a painter continued.

But I heard that it seems to have broken the shell recently.

They paint a picture that draws a lot of attention to what they see.

Originally, it was an elaborate painting that seemed to perfectly reproduce what I had seen, or on the contrary, it was a messy painting that was very different from reality because of what I advised.

But it was just a good painting.

It has changed.

The reason is said to be the technique developed with reference to Cleon, who created the magic of [singing].

I made a promise not to tell anyone else, and they told me it was confidential, but apparently they improved the paint.

They usually add finely crushed magic stones to their paintings.

The point is to change the ratio of magic stones added by color.

I used the oil paint with magic stones to draw a picture with magic in my brush.

While drawing on the artist's experience to date, magic still resides in the mysterious painting that collapsed from various angles.

As a result, once you see the painting, you become so immersed in the world of painting that you can be dragged into deep psychology.

Such a painting complimented Clarice, who had seen various works of art.

Well, that might be true.

Magic stones are valuable in nature, and they also use magic healing medicine to melt them into oil paints.

It may be a technique that was born because of the abundance of both.

This painter's new technique is also used in the paintings of the ancestral King Carlos decorating the newly created castle of Fontana.

Many of those who saw it at the New Year's celebration had a reputation for "who painted that picture?"

It must mean that the painter as a painter was finally recognized by many people.

The new technique may not be possible with a coin, but a coin entrusted to a painter with such a big name must be quite a good appraisal.

That's how we started making some new coins at Barca Bank.
