Noland Lee flipped through the notebook.

A hand-drawn table caught his eye, filled with project names, character annotations, and the amount of gold coins needed to complete each project.

“To buy a small island in the central sea hub of the Suman Archipelago, at least 100,000 Ulnas gold coins need to be prepared. This expenditure is huge, but we can gain an island completely under our control. Everything on the island, as well as the sea area within 3 kilometers around the island, will be our territory.”

As Noland Lee read the table information, he said:

“Having an island is not enough; we also need to prepare our own ships. If we only operate within the scope of the archipelago, the small magic boats produced by the Hotams Deep Sea Department are enough, which would cost about 6,000 to 10,000 gold coins.

“But if you want to go out to sea for fun, medium-sized magic boats are needed, and you also need to purchase a monthly subscription for the Lost Sea Fog Investigation Report. A one-time payment of at least 30,000 gold coins can buy a medium-sized magic boat. Pay 500 gold coins per month to get a weekly update on the Lost Sea Fog Investigation Report.”

“In addition to these, building materials for island construction, magical items to protect the island from invasions by sea people and sea beasts, etc., will require Ulnas gold coins.”

Noland Lee turned another page.

After looking at the text and data on it, he raised his head to praise the other party:

“Oh! You’ve already calculated the total budget and divided it into four levels of island living standards: basic, satisfactory, happy, and perfect.

“According to the lowest standards for building the island, we can achieve a basic level of living quality, which requires us to prepare 150,000 Ulnas gold coins. On this basis, every additional 20,000 to 50,000 Ulnas gold coins we prepare will raise the quality of our island living by one level. To live the perfect island life, we must prepare 260,000 Ulnas gold coins.”

“Very good, Denise, you’ve really thought this through.”

Seeing that Noland Lee noticed her detailed arrangements and seemed very satisfied, Denise smiled, her cheeks slightly red:

“Do you think there is anything that needs improvement?”

Noland thought for a moment and said:

“Let’s go with the levels you’ve divided. We’ll set the first goal to collect 150,000 Ulnas gold coins.”

“Okay~” Denise happily clenched her fists and held them in front of her.

Noland Lee slightly admired her beauty for half a second, then asked pensively:

“Denise, do you think it’s easier to make money on Alchemist Island or on Kashel Continent?”

Denise gently rubbed her excited and slightly hot cheeks, pondered for two seconds, and said:

“Well… Although there are many magic relics, dungeons, and sub-dimensional plane entrances to explore on Kashel Continent, I think it’s easier to make money on Alchemist Island.”

“Why? Is it because there are fewer wizards here?” Noland asked.

“Yes,” Denise nodded lightly:

“There are so many wizards on Kashel Continent. And those who dare to walk in the wild and explore various extraordinary areas are basically combat wizards. It would be very competitive to make money there. Of course, the rewards would be very generous, which is why it attracts so many combat wizards to roam the Kashel Continent.”

Noland asked again:

“But on Alchemist Island, we can’t rely solely on working for the Golden Commerce Guild. The speed of making money is really too slow. How do you think we can save up 150,000 gold coins on Alchemist Island? I hope to achieve this goal in a short period.”

“The most efficient method is to recover alchemy weaponry from the Fissure Corridor.” Denise stretched out her left hand and used her right hand to bend her fingers, saying:

“The Alchemy Cathedral and various alchemist factions have clear prices. Recovering third-order alchemy weaponry and submitting it, depending on the type and damage degree of the alchemy weaponry, rewards 1 million to 3 million Union coins, which is equivalent to 10 to 30 Ulnas gold coins. When redeeming fourth-tier alchemy weaponry, the lower limit of the Union Coin reward remains unchanged at 1 million, and the upper limit is increased to 4 million. It is equivalent to 10 to 40 Ulnas gold coins.”

Upon hearing Denise’s calculations, the purchasing power gap between Union Coin and Ulnas gold coins became apparent.

1 Ulnas gold coin = 1,000 Ulnas silver coins = 100,000 Union coins

To buy an island in the Suman Archipelago, a maritime transportation hub, 100,000 Ulnas gold coins are needed, equivalent to 10 billion Union coins.

Are Union coins cheap, or is the island too expensive?

Both.

Union coins are cheap because they can only circulate within Union City. Due to the limited circulation of Union coins and the few types of items available for purchase, these two factors overlap, making Union coins appear cheap.

Ask yourself, which wizard would bring lots of gold coins, exchange them for Union coins here in Union City, and spend extravagantly?

Probably none.

The currency market demands supply-demand balance, too.

Since the external demand for Union coins is not high, Union coins will naturally be less valuable.

Secondly, buying an island in the Suman Archipelago involves more than just vacationing and maintaining good health.

Buying an island is like buying land. Once you buy land, you can build warehouses, docks, and fishing grounds.

So, the main population that buys islands in the Suman Archipelago are not wizards like Noland Lee and Denise who plan to live secluded lives, but businessmen who want to do business at sea and make a living from the ocean.

In the case of being able to make money by buying a sea island, the price of the sea islands is naturally astonishingly high.

In order to achieve this life goal, Noland estimated that he would have to bring back thousands of sets of alchemy weaponry from the Fissure Corridor.
