Chapter 1832 Cellphones!

Two and a half hours later and everyone was deep into conversation, Landon rose from his seat, having gone through everything with Tim. "I will personally fund the entire project, since it is my sole idea and independent work... However, the various government department heads will contact you for another meeting, and you will spearhead the presentation on Cell Phone security, governance and compliance " "Of course, your Majesty."

Ah yes~... Deposits. Landon didn't plan to make the safety deposits to be massive. To rent these devices, one has to pay more than 1/2 the phone's price. They can pay that upfront or pay the deposit bit during the duration of their stay. Let's say they get a visa permitting them to stay for just 6 months, but they Anne's to stay for only 1 month. Some can choose to stay for a little longer, getting temporary jobs here to make up for it. But anyway, the down payment isn't something that is typically much, depending on what cell phone they wish to go for. Different phone types will cost different prizes. There will be cell phones for 100 Bays (133 copper coins), and cellphones for 800 Bays. Understand that 0.7501 Bays = 1 copper coin. Again, they will only be putting down only half the total price of the phone. So if they get the 100 bay phone, they have to pl0ut down 50 Bays( 66.7 copper coins.) What was 67 copper coins? Over the years, the monthly wages in Pyno has jumped from 250~300 copper coins to 480~600 copper coins and even more. No joke, since many found entrepreneurship, more and more ordinary people are getting wealthier. Even farmers now make twice more than before, with some farmers even making up to 700 copper coins (6 silver coins) a month. Now in Pyno, the minimum wage is roughly 480 copper coins. But in Baymard, the minimum wage in the Capital City is 680 copper coins (510 Bays). In other Baymardian territories, it varies between 560 to 620 copper coins. So yes. Many can afford 67 copper coins as down payment to rent these phones. Again, though the 100 Bay phone is a good choice, the 200 Bay phone will be the one Landon knew most regular people will go for because of functionality. The 100 Bay phone will be the cheapest phone in all of Baymard. The more expensive the phone, the more advanced its tech. Landon massaged his chin with a sly glint in his eyes. Even with this, he never planned to make the camera apps, online regular payment apps and a few other apps. Hang on... although no bank apps and traditional payment methods linking to one's direct bank cards will be available, he still came up with a clever way for them to buy things online. First, everyone will have to register for what's called a Spendable Recharge card, that can be granted to them from the bank. With that card, they can transfer money into it and use the card to buy things online. The card number is 5 digits long and different from traditional bank cards. Yet, it had more verification procedures for proof of identification. These recharge cards are great because even if in the future, attackers steal money from the cards, at least these cards aren't necessarily linked to your regular bank cards. Note that the cards won't have names printed on them, bug special codes and unique identifiers. Online refunds can also be sent to these cards, and you can then later transfer the funds to your personal bank account.
