COSG - Chapter 102.1: Lord Yang's Intentions

A hundred meters of curtain fabric priced at 240 yuan (2.4 yuan per meter) was sold to Rex at a 20% discount, which was 800 copper coins, or 0.8 gold coins.

The gold coins in this world were impure, and their purity varied depending on the minting nation or individual integrity. Most had a gold content ranging from around 60% to 70%, and if calculated at the minimum, 0.8 gold coins equated to at least 4 grams of pure gold.

240 yuan for 4 grams of pure gold was a deal too good to pass up.

The plastic crockery bought at the one yuan per piece wholesale price (basic designs without any prints; crockery with prints cost 10 to 20 cents more) was five copper coins for two pieces.

But, of course, Yang Qiu wouldn't let making money interfere with more important matters; that would be putting the cart before the horse. However, to expand the imprint matrix and increase the number of earth player anchor points, money was an absolute necessity.

Yang Qiu didn't have the time or skill to engage in the trifles of money-making, so he would just let his tools handle it.

Seeing Rex perplexed, Yang Qiu asked with a slight smile, "What's gotten you confused, Rex?"

Rex suddenly snapped out of it and glanced at the list of goods and prices on the contract. Voice trembling, he asked, "I-I don't quite understand, Yang. Are you suggesting… that I be a merchant?"

"Of course not. I'm merely providing
