Arod put his fist in front of Prince Otto, then turned over and looked upwards, opened his fist to show Prince Otto, and placed a round coin in the heart of his fist.

"What is this?" Prince Otto picked up the round silver coin. One side of the silver coin was engraved with a double-headed eagle, and the other side seemed to be the outline of a human's side face.

"The exclusive circulating silver coins belonging to your kingdom." Arod pointed to the silver coins and explained to Prince Otto.

"Exclusive silver coins? It looks very delicate!" Prince Otto looked at the patterns on both sides of the silver coins, and what surprised him even more was that the edges of the silver coins had even a uniform scale.

"This scale is to prevent someone from cutting the corners." The scales on the outer side of this silver coin made from a smelting base are artificial, and there is no way to rely on the craftsmanship before the technology reaches its reach.

"But it's normal to cut off the horns, otherwise how can you pay the piecemeal money?" Prince Otto asked in confusion.

"Cutting off the coins will cause forgery, but don't worry, please look at this." Aruod opened a wooden box on the table, and saw several silver coins placed inside, all as exquisite as those in Prince Otto's hands.

"So that's the case, it's really good." Prince Otto sighed. Aruod always surprised him. The intelligent Prince Otto understood that these exquisite silver coins would definitely be loved by nobles and merchants.

"Your Highness, if you are willing to use this silver coin as a unified coin for the kingdom, I believe it will definitely strengthen the royal prestige." Aroud looked at Prince Otto's reaction and said carefully.

"Well." Prince Otto held the round silver coin in his hand and carefully felt the texture of the silver coin with his fingers. He was satisfied with the texture and weight of the silver coin.

"Your Highness, Prince?" Aruod asked again.

"My kingdom should circulate such exquisite coins, but I cannot force everyone to use them. You know that silver coins from the kingdoms in the south and the west are also circulated in the kingdoms." Prince Otto said with a shrugged.

"It's okay. Your Highness, I have an idea." Arod said in Prince Otto's ear.

"Yeah, yeah, a good idea." Prince Otto smiled and nodded, gaining a deeper understanding of Arude's wisdom.

"In this way, it will not only conquer the hearts of the princes, but also allow them to cooperate in the circulation of this currency." Aruod blinked his eyes cunningly and said to Prince Otto.

"My friend, although your idea is good, I can't pay so much silver coins?" Prince Otto said with a wry smile.

"I will provide the royal family with sufficient coins, but there is only one condition." Arod said slowly when he knew the time to negotiate the conditions was ripe.

"What conditions?" Prince Otto asked.

"I ask the royal family to admit that Mecklenburg will be the only principality to issue such coins legally." Arod said slowly, but his heart beat violently for a few unscrupulous and violently.

"What do I think is? Only Mecklenburg can do this kind of coin." Prince Otto said with a smile.

"Thank you so much," Aruod quietly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that even if the people in the Middle Ages were as smart as Prince Otto, they did not understand the powerful power behind issuing currency.

Prince Otto was only a guest in Mecklenburg for about three days and soon left and returned to his palace. When King Henry was critically ill, Prince Otto could not stay away for a long time, and many people who covet the throne had never relaxed at all.

"Soros, I want you to lead a fleet to trade on the west coast." Arod ordered Soros, his Jewish courtier.

"Sailing west?" Soros asked curiously. After Prince Otto left, Aruod immediately attracted him, and it seemed that the situation was still very urgent.

"That's right. According to the information, there are some wealthy towns along the coastline. In the past, they were the only one who came to us to do business, and now we have to do business there." Aruod knew that in order to accumulate funds as soon as possible, the only way to trade was feasible, heading west towards the direction of the British Isles. And the Hanseatic League towns were traded strongholds, but at this time people had no map and could not understand each other.

"Oh, in this case, what goods should we sell?" Soros's smart Jewish mind immediately reacted and said to Arod.

"Our smelting base will sell some inferior weapons and armor, as well as special pottery as goods!" Arod said to Soros.

"I understand my Duke." Soros nodded in agreement.

"I will also send some soldiers to follow you, and there will be no peace between the English Channel." Aruod knew that there were many pirates in the North Sea and he had to arm his fleet, otherwise it would be bad if he was robbed by the North Sea pirates.

"Okay Duke."

"Oh by the way, I'll have a bed crossbow and Greek fire on the ship just in case." Arod thought for a while, feeling that it was not safe to add some armed forces.

"I will follow the Duke." Soros said after bowing to Arod.

"Ah, it's so tiring. If this big thing is done for the royal family, the currency issuance rights of the entire kingdom will be in my hands. Issuing currency in the name of the king means that the kingdom's money bag is in the palm of his hand." After doing these things, Aruod sat on the chair. He leaned back, closed his eyes and let out a sigh of relief, thinking in his heart.

The past few days of entertaining Prince Otto and the effort to think about how to raise money made Arod extremely tired, and his relationship with his wife Princess Josie did not ease. Therefore, Arod could only stay in other places at night. Although there were female slaves who occasionally relieved their tired hearts, they still felt very empty inside.

At this moment, a pair of fair arms were placed on his shoulders, and the heat sprayed into his ears, making his ears itchy. A ray of red hair was reflected in his eyes when Aruod opened his eyes, and he immediately knew who it was.

"Have, what are you doing?" Arod quickly pushed Harvey's hands away and said to his spy leader.

"What? I heard that you trained Slavic slaves all night but refused to return to your bedroom. Now you are afraid of your wife?" Harvey was wearing tight leather armor, highlighting her proud figure, leaning against the back of the chair and sneered at Arod.

"You should care more about the enemies in the country, not my private affairs." Aruod frowned, reached out to touch his beard, and said dissatisfiedly.

"Hmph, you coward." Suddenly, Harvey hugged Arude's neck, bent down and bit Arude's lips hard. Arude wanted to struggle, but the bitten mouth could not move.

"Ba." Just as he was struggling, Aruod swept his eyes to the door of the conference hall and found Princess Josie looking at them in amazement. Aruod quickly pushed Harvey away.

"Josi, listen to my explanation." Arod did what all men would say. He stood up and almost knocked Harvey down. When he wanted to chase after him, Princess Josi turned around and ran away like a mortal face.

"Well, the little princess is jealous." Harvey said with a smile on his face while sitting on the ground, smiling indifferently.

"You did a good thing." Aruod had no way to the woman, and could only complain and chase Princess Qiaoxi with a big stroll.

"Oh, it's so boring~." Harvey looked at Arod's back and simply lay on the ground and sighed. (To be continued.)
