In the big market, Liu Feng was under Mina's protection. An Li was holding a notebook beside him, ready to record what Liu Feng said. Nicole was carrying a bag as she followed behind.
The four of them looked a little like a big boss bringing his secretary out for an inspection. Of course, there were also lackeys like Tori.
As soon as they entered the gate, they saw four male orcs standing at the entrance of the market. They held a two-meter-long wooden stick in their hands and wore leather armor.
The four orcs were the security guards of the big market. The four of them looked fierce. Alright, they were just a little ugly and people couldn't bear to look at them.
However, it didn't matter. This was the feeling that Liu Feng wanted. It had to be the kind that was so ugly that it was scary. It would be best if it could scare people to tears.
"Welcome to the big market!" The four orcs shouted in unison.
In fact, the four orcs were extremely nervous. Three days ago, they had never expected to do such a high-profile job.
To them, security was a job that attracted the attention of everyone. Didn't they see that the people around them were looking at them in awe?
"Very good. If anyone causes trouble, arrest them.”Liu Feng patted the Beastman's shoulder and said with certainty," Those who like to steal will be locked in a small black room after being caught.”
"Yes, yes!" The four male beastmen shivered. They had tried that small black room before. They swore that they would never go in again.
"Do your job well and don't embarrass Young Master. Otherwise, I'll get Mi Na to teach you a lesson.”An Li raised her eyebrows and pretended to be fierce. However, her puffed up face was too cute.
An Li cherished her current life and the opportunity to change the human race's view of the Beastmen. Therefore, she hoped that the first step wouldn't go wrong.
"I, I understand!" When the four orcs saw Mina's gaze, they immediately straightened their bodies, afraid that they would be beaten up in the next second. That would be the rhythm of lying in bed for a few days.
"Let's go!"
As soon as they entered the market, they saw a few counters at the entrance. They were filled with many small items.
"Eh? What are those?" An Li looked at the counter. There was a round thing with a wooden stick stuck in it.
"That's a lollipop. It's made of sugar, wheat flour, and some dried fruits.”
Nicole also took out a notebook and explained," This is made by a chef in the City Lord's Mansion according to Young Master's request. It's very delicious.”
Yes, the lollipop from the other world had very little sugar. It could only make people feel slightly sweet. After all, there was too little sugar in this era. He had brought the sugar cane, but he could only plant it next year. The lollipop with pure sugar could only be mass-produced next year.
Liu Feng didn't know that shopping malls and supermarkets were planned. He could only follow his own ideas and plan them based on his experience in shopping malls.
He didn't understand why large supermarkets and shopping malls would place jewelry and cosmetics cabinets in conspicuous places at the entrance. He didn't need to understand that food was the most important thing to the people. He would just set up a cabinet selling sweets and snacks. He believed that it would be very popular.
"Candies? I want it!" An Li's eyes lit up as she looked at Liu Feng.
"Then go buy it." Liu Feng chuckled. He took out a handful of steel coins from his sleeve and handed them to An Li." Take this and buy them."”
"What? What was this? If it wasn't copper coins, could he buy a lollipop?”
An Li held the steel coin with both hands and was a little confused. She carefully picked up one of the coins and found that it was very exquisite. There were exquisite patterns carved on it, and there was a big '1' in the middle and a smaller 'corner' on the right.
"A corner? When did this currency appear?”Mi Na craned her neck and looked at the steel coin." Why haven't I seen it before?"”
"Of course, you'll know once you buy it.”Liu Feng chuckled and gently pushed An Li away." Let's go and try it!"”
An Li was pushed to the front, and the few of them came to the counter. There was already a female beastman waiting there. She was a bear beastwoman, and she was tall and fat.
"Welcome. What do you need?”
She held back the thought of greeting An Li and Mina. She had been trained for two days and could not be rude in front of the city lord.
"Eh? It's a fat bear. You're actually selling candy. I'm so envious.”An Li pouted. She envied someone who could look at candy all day.
Fat Bear knew her big sister's hobby. She would not be happy without sugar. However, she was just a part-timer. She had just started working and did not have a salary yet. Her food and accommodation were still provided by the city lord's mansion. Otherwise, she would have used her own pocket to buy a pile of sugar for her big sister.
"I want a lollipop." An Li said expectantly.
"One lollipop, one corner, which is a steel coin.”Fat Bear pulled out a lollipop from the cabinet and handed it to An Li.
"A corner?" An Li looked at the steel coins in her hand and began to understand. She took out a steel coin from her palm and handed it to the fat bear. Then, she asked," How many steel coins can I exchange for one copper coin? How much is it?"
"One copper coin can be exchanged for ten steel coins.”Fat Bear said quickly. These were all trained in advance. They had simulated here a day ago.
" I understand now. A commoner can't bear to eat a lollipop for a copper coin. If it's a steel coin, which is one-tenth of a copper coin, then a commoner can also bear to eat it.”An Li immediately understood Liu Feng's intention.
"If the starting price is one copper coin, this big market won't be able to continue operating. A market that commoners can't afford is not far from closing down.”
Liu Feng said gently. The commoners of this era were frugal. One catty of wheat was two copper coins. If you told him that a lollipop was one copper coin, who would buy it? No civilians were willing to buy it because there was no need.
In fact, it was too expensive. It was just like back on Earth in the early 80s and 90s. One yuan could buy a lot of things. One or two cents could buy a big cup of melon seeds.
Thus, the steel coins appeared. Liu Feng could be considered as an experiment. He would use the large market as a test. If he succeeded, the steel coins would naturally be distributed.
Then, he would issue his own currency step by step, and further replace copper coins, silver coins, gold coins, and so on, thus achieving dominance in the currency market.
Of course, this was a long-term plan. The prerequisite was that Liu Feng's strength was strong enough.
