According to this account, what was the effect of
Musa's visit to Cairo?
This man, Mansa Musa, flooded Cairo with his
generosity. He left no court emir nor holder of a royal
office without the gift of a load of gold. The people of
Cairo made incalculable profits out of him and his
travelling party in buying and selling and giving and
taking. They exchanged gold until they depressed its
value in Egypt and caused its price to fall.
O Cairo began to flood more than usual.
More people became interested in Islam.
People wanted to trade salt and gold to become
wealthy
Musa's spending resulted in gold becoming less
valuable in Cairo
