Tearful Fox was immediately drawn in upon entering, and grabbed Su Yuan's hand, asking hastily, "By the way, about those... coins, yes, could you tell me about those coins?"
“I feel that this thing is very similar to the money in the myth I heard before, but I have thought about it for a long time and no one else in the tribe will allow me to get it.”
She had also considered the money issue, especially after learning about the gold, silver, and copper coins that had been passed down from Cangyuan Town, but every time she brought it up, others disagreed.
Besides her, there were several other high shamans in the tribe. Although she held great power, they all rejected such an absurd plan.
"Oh? How did you design it?"
Logically speaking, such a thing shouldn't have encountered such strong resistance; otherwise, how could Su Yuan's monetary system have spread to various tribes so quickly?
"I plan to polish Akashi into a small sphere, and then carve my name and design on it with a knife!"
"Later, the spies obtained some currency from your tribe, and I added some content, dividing the balls into small, medium, and large. The small ones are worth 1 point, the medium ones are worth 10 points, and the large ones are worth 100 points."
"Big...big?"
Su Yuan watched as Tear Fox carried the bag like a watermelon, and his lips twitched in exasperation. It seemed that he had to use a cart to bring a whole batch of Ming Shi just to buy something!
Putting aside the issue of size, it is very easy for others to imitate, and Akashi is not a particularly rare item; it used to be frequently brought up for trade by people who chase the light.
If Tearful Fox continues down this path, the tribe will go bankrupt sooner or later, leaving her alone, clutching that pile of Akashi currency and weeping.
"Your people are right not to let you do it."
"......"
"Hahahaha!!! I knew it! Even Chief Su Yuan looks down on all that mess you've made. Do you really think you've learned anything just by holding onto two coins?"
Zhe Shuang tossed the gold coin in her hand; its exquisite patterns and dazzling appearance indicated that it was a coin Su Yuan had redeemed from the system.
With current technology, it is very difficult to replicate. Even if some tribes go to great lengths, they can only produce one or two pieces. Not only do they require specific raw materials, but the shoddy workmanship is also very easy to detect.
After all, these were all exchanged by the system, and each coin of the same denomination was almost identical, with no difference whatsoever.
"Shut up! Don't think I don't know you tried to do it too. Did you manage to make that candy? Oh, if you had, you wouldn't be here."
Not to be outdone, Tear Fox was also an old acquaintance of the two. Frostbite Forest, where Frostbite lived, was a forest not far from Tear Fox's tribe. Because she had taken over it, it was renamed Frostbite Forest.
The two had previously clashed over prey in the woods.
"Hmph, but I'm not as stupid as you."
Zhe Shuang did try it, but no matter what she did, she couldn't figure out what the candy was made of; each color represented a different flavor.
They tried crushing and steaming the fruit, or even drying it over a fire, but it either turned into charcoal or a sticky, viscous substance.
The taste didn't become much sweeter; on the contrary, it had a burnt smell.
Of the three, only Shi Jing remained silent, her eyes constantly scanning the surroundings. She nodded thoughtfully as she observed the arrangement of some market stalls.
Upon seeing the shops and buildings, he frowned slightly, looking quite puzzled.
Finally, after walking for a short while, the three of them were brought to the mayor's courtyard. The stools from before had not been put back in place, and the sweet drink was still in front of them. Now he sat down again.
"Tell me your purpose for coming. If it's to release people, I can't do that."
