The gold coins that the sea ghost took out were the same strange gold coins she had obtained before.
She had been wondering what kind of intelligent creature's currency this was, but she never expected it to be related to the deep-sea race.
Although Gu Xi had some gold coins, she didn't have a clear understanding of their purchasing power. So she calmly replied, "I certainly have gold coins, but I'd like to see the goods first."
Both parties in the transaction were mutually agreeable, and her reason for wanting to engage in the trade was to acquire more valuable items. First, she needed to understand the goods traded by the Sea Ghost in order to conduct the transaction more effectively.
After Gu Xi answered the sea ghosts, she saw them working on the strange board again. Soon after, they handed the board to her once more.
They added, "Dear customer, your transaction amount will directly determine the grade and range of goods we can show you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xi paused slightly, her hand hovering over the contents of the board. She then raised it and asked, "So, these aren't all the items you can trade?"
Sea Ghost replied, "Yes, but just now you demonstrated your wealth to us. We have upgraded your purchasing level to level 6."
"What is Level 6?" Gu Xi pressed.
Sea Ghost explained, "The Sea Ghost clan's customer levels are divided into 1 to 9, with level 1 being the highest and level 9 the lowest. The customer level increases as the transaction amount increases."
After Hai Youling explained, Gu Xi instantly understood. She raised an eyebrow and continued to focus on the board in her hands.
The content on the board is displayed in a similar way to the previously shown display of acquired items, consisting of the item name, item style, and price.
Although she was only a level 6 customer, many of the things the Sea Ghost gave her were things she had never seen before.
However, what she cared about most was not the items themselves, but their prices.
She became even more attentive when she discovered that the trading units included not only strange gold coins, but also silver and copper coins.
Gu Xi's mind raced. "Could these items be standardized into a single currency unit? I'll have to convert them when I calculate the different prices."
Gu Xi found a legitimate reason to make her request; she didn't believe that Hai Youling hadn't encountered similar situations during the transaction.
Sure enough, the sea ghost's answer satisfied her.
"I'm sorry, dear customer, you can find the currency unit you wish to view below."
Following Hai Youling's instructions, Gu Xi found icons for several currencies at the bottom of the board. She tried clicking the gold coin button, and immediately all the item prices switched to gold coins.
Having obtained the necessary information, Gu Xi smiled and thanked the Sea Ghost, then continued examining the items.
With the currency conversion function, she finally figured out the exchange rates between different currency units.
Based on the currently displayed information, gold coins have the highest value, while copper coins have the lowest. 1 gold coin equals 100 silver coins, and 1 silver coin equals 1000 copper coins.
After learning about the currency exchange rate, Gu Xi began searching for the items she needed.
The Sea Ghost doesn't sell human food, water, or daily necessities, but it has a large stock of materials at very affordable prices.
For example, an iron ingot costs only 5 copper coins, and one gold coin can buy 20,000 iron ingots. The price is so low that it is astonishing.
