"Then we will officially start the exhibition in three days."
Lin Ke took another sip of cocoa, his tongue swirling in his mouth.
After hearing Lin Ke's words, Kamul hesitated for a moment and handed the cocoa drink in his hand to the servant.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"I still need some time to prepare. The miracle bestowed by His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is extremely sacred."
"I suspect that the people of Holy Egypt will flock here, which may cause many problems."
"Besides that, I have some matters concerning the exhibition to report to you."
At this time, Kamul nodded to Remheb, indicating that he should hand the prepared papyrus to Lin Ke for review.
But after reading the contents on the papyrus, Lin Ke frowned slightly.
“What’s your pricing?”
"It costs 1 gold coin to visit all the miracles?"
Link asked as he looked at the papyrus that Remheb handed over.
"To visit a miracle alone, and receive fifty deben of silver?"
Deben represents a fixed quantity of units.
One thousand Deben copper coins can be exchanged for just one Deben silver coin.
One thousand deben of silver coins could be exchanged for one gold coin.
For ordinary people in Holy Egypt, six silver coins were enough to live without food or drink for a year.
Obviously, for ordinary people, they may need to live frugally all their lives to have the opportunity to enter the wonders.
Only merchants, blacksmiths, senior non-commissioned officers and officials had to tighten their belts and save money for several years to barely buy a chance to visit the wonders.
This is outrageous!
"What do you base your pricing on?"
Kamul saw the subtle change in Lin Ke's expression and immediately fell to the ground, stretching out his arms and pressing his forehead against the ground.
"Your Majesty, Holy Pharaoh, your miracles are supreme and sacred."
"If the price is too low, I am afraid that too many people will go to the miracle site, which may pollute the miracle you have bestowed! Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
Lin Ke raised his chin slightly and looked at Kamul and Remheb who were kneeling on the ground.
He understood that he had to make the decision on pricing himself.
For an experienced minister like Kamul, what he worries about is that the price is too low, which will make His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh lose face.
For an old minister like him, what he cares more about is the face of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh.
Moreover, Lin Ke knew that Kamul was well aware that if the leader became angry because of the pricing, his life would be in danger.
That is, he was dragged away and beheaded by the Pharaoh.
Obviously, Kamul used the method he used to serve the previous pharaoh on Linke.
The dignity of the miracle is highlighted through pricing, which can also indirectly highlight the lofty status of the Holy Pharaoh.
That's why Kamul showed these data to Lin Ke. He did so in order to throw the question back to Lin Ke.
In this way, he would not only get the correct price in the end, but also be able to make His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh feel Kamul's respect for the miracle when showing the documents.
Ultimately, it is the reverence and respect for His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh.
Lin Ke gently pressed his temple with his hand.
As expected of an old minister who has become the prime minister...
But at this time, Lin Ke just turned his gaze to Remheb.
He wondered what the young man was thinking.
"Remheb, with your salary, how long would it take you to save enough money to enter the wonder once?"
Upon hearing this, Remheb immediately prostrated himself on the ground.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh! Only fifty years will be enough!"
Thirty years?
In order to see a spectacle, this guy would rather save up his salary for fifty years!
"If you calculate this way, then you will have to cut back on food and clothing in your lifetime so that you can barely see one of these wonders?"
But Remheb's smile actually became a little brighter.
"Being able to personally enter the miracle bestowed by Saint Pharaoh, my life has become valuable!"
"If we can use money to purchase the qualification to enter the miracle, it would be a great gift from you to us!"
"If I can enter the miracle, I will never eat meat again in my life..."
Lin Ke felt a headache after listening to Remheb's words.
It seems that everyone in Holy Egypt is the same...
The Pharaoh's status was so honorable that to ordinary people, he was almost like a god.
Not to mention the holy pharaoh who revived holy Egypt and summoned the sun god Ra.
Lin Ke could see from Remheb's eyes that this guy didn't have any concerns.
But he really thinks so!
Remheb was promoted from an ordinary person, so his reaction can be seen as a microcosm of the attitude of most people towards miracles and the Holy Pharaoh.
But in any case, the price of the fifty-deben silver coin is really too expensive.
Not to mention a gold coin.
Lin Ke's original intention was to make money, not for these empty things.
Respect alone is not enough.
"Kamul, how much did the workers who moved the stones earn in a day?"
Hearing Lin Ke's words, Kamul bowed forward and said, "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, the maximum is thirty Deben copper coins a day."
Lin Ke continued to ask: "After deducting the daily expenses, how much of the workers' wages can be saved?"
Kamul thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the workers are working now, so the extra expenses are less."
"According to your instructions, all workers can receive food directly on the same day without having to spend any extra money."
