Plant Mage 17

Chapter 17 - I’m Thinking of Buying Land (3)

The middle-aged receptionist is implicitly telling me that I don’t have enough money. He’s also telling me that only guild members are allowed to make loan payments, which is a piece of information I don’t really want to know.

「I see….you are right, I don’t have enough.」

「Yeah, yeah, it’s a shame but there’s nothing wrong with dreaming big---」

「Well, I’m going to make some money.」

「Eh?」

「A thousand big gold coin pieces, right?」

Clang clang clang clang.

I pulled additional leather bags out of my bag.

「This is all I have. We have to count it….」

「…..you have 5 bags full of coins but even so, those won’t be enough.」

There are five types of coins commonly used on the upper and lower continents.

They are big gold coins(golgold), gold coins(golds), silver coins(silver), and iron coins(iron).

Their comparable prices are 100000 yen, 10000 yen, 5000 yen, 1000 yen, 100 yen….

The biggest currency commoners use is silver and rarely gold.

In addition to trading with currency, bartering was also popular.

A leather bag usually holds one hundred coins each.

Even if there were five bags of gold coins, it would be less than 30% percent of the value of the land.

「Ah, there are mithril coins here.」

「What? Mithril coins?」

「Yeah, I heard that fine coins are treated differently in the empire and in the autonomous region.」

Mithril coins.

It’s very rare.

They are coins made of rare metals and can be traded at almost equivalent prices in many countries.

Each coin is worth about 1 million yen or ten times as much as a big gold coin.

「There are fifty of them.」

「Whoahhhhhhh!」

「And please be quiet!」

The middle-aged receptionist shouted, attracting attention from everyone around.

I became impatient because I don’t want to stand out.

「Are you alright, uncle? You don’t look so good….ah, did you pee?」

「No!」

I see. I guess I was wrong.

The middle-aged receptionist gave out a long sigh.

「It’s because you suddenly took out mithril coins.」

「I need to since I’m going to purchase land.」

「It’s rare for someone so young to suddenly take out fifty pieces---this is my first time experiencing it. You got uncle’s first time.」

「I don’t want it….」
