Not to exaggerate, but even in Lin Yi's own little treasury, there is more than just this small amount of money now.
Even for Lin Yi, these more than 1000 taels of silver are definitely not something to be concerned about.
The currency level today is not as valuable as that of the Tang Dynasty, where a single coin could be worth six coins in spending power.
In today's era, the purchasing power of this one coin is equivalent to 50 cents of the future market.
And one tael of silver is equivalent to 500 dollars of the future.
These 1000 or so taels together just amount to slightly over 900,000 dollars of the future market.
This number might sound substantial, but when used for a nationwide disaster relief effort, it's utterly inadequate, like a drop in the bucket.
Keep in mind that in the future, even a minor flood can involve investments of tens or hundreds of billions.
After all, this money is to be spent on tens of thousands of disaster victims.
