Chapter 32: The First Trade
Five covered wagons pulled by oxen stopped at the abandoned inn outside Northpeak Shaft.
Several ferocious-looking men alighted from the covered wagons and dragged crates of goods into the stable behind the inn. Following that, they retrieved several sacks of gold from under the haystack.
Jack waited nervously beside the covered wagons.
When he saw his subordinates walking over, he immediately asked, “How much did they pay?”
“I just finished counting… There’s a total of 50,000 Ors silver,” the profusely sweating subordinate replied.
It could be a necromancer quirk, but the money they received was all in loose change coins.
To date, the Ors Empire had minted over fifty generations of silver coins, with each generation’s coin having different dimensions and thus containing different weights in silver.
Copper coins, on the other hand, were more commonly used, so the Ors Empire granted each region the right to mint their own copper coin. The Lyon Kingdom had its own copper coin, and so did the Campelle Duchy.
While Jack’s subordinate was counting the money inside the sacks, he found an ancient sixth-edition silver coin, which dated back to the earlier days of the First Epoch!
