Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons!

Nier and I walked to the streets after we left that weird shop. We left the slums and entered the market area. This is the market at the centre of the imperial capital. It’s said that as long as it exists, you’ll be able to find it for sale somewhere here, which is why I came here to take a stroll. The good part about living with humanity is that I have access to money which is pre-prepared for me.

The currency system of humanity is much more complex than that of the elves. The money that I have on me currently is the currency manufactured by the empire with the empress’s face on it. A gold coin here is worth about sixteen silver coins. The silver coins are separated into the empires silver coins and Castor’s silver coins. The difference is the overlapping swords and anchor. An empire silver coin is worth one-hundred bronze coins, while the silver coins from Castor are worth one-hundred and five bronze coins. Based on the principles of macroeconomics taught in university, we know that the value of Castor’s silver coins are currently higher than the empire’s.

But in terms of quality, they contained pretty much the same amount of silver. The value of coins is determined by how much metal is within the coin. In other words, the amount of silver in a silver coin determines its value.

There should be about the same amount of silver in both silver coins. Therefore, they should be fairly even. People usually invest in the US dollar in foreign exchange investments because the US is large and their currency is versatile. The same applies here when explaining the existence of two currencies. It goes to show that these two have the greatest influence on the market. The empress’s empire is powerful and rules over humanity, so logically speaking, she should also have control over the finance system. Yet the empress’s empire has two currencies. This fact shocked me. That goes to show the importance of Castor to them.

But it’s got nothing to do with me. I looked around at the stalls selling all types of food. There was roasted eel, beer, barbeques, and bread. A variety of food aromas filled the air. I couldn’t resist the urge to buy some and taste them.

“Nier, do you want some?”

Nier looked at me and replied: “No.”

I hesitated for a bit and then said: “It might taste really good.”

Nier folded her arms and coldly said: “I don’t eat foods from outside.”
