Chapter 252: A Pile of Gold and Jade
Before this, Yuan Zhuoyue had never seen such a lively scene in the dream realm, nor had he seen these exquisite little gadgets.
The dream realms she had entered in the past were all newly created and not particularly stable, and would not exist for too long.
Yuan Zhuoyue also knew that everything in the dream realm was made up of energy and mental power. The purer the power, the rarer and more precious it was.
It is true that there are quite a few 'natural treasures' created from the accumulation of 'spiritual energy', but Yuan Zhuoyue does not know how to handle and use them.
She also felt that those things, whose uses she had no idea about but which contained little energy, would probably just gather dust in her hands.
Also, because she was eager to clear the dream realm of everything related to "filth", she did not collect these resources.
Most people just take a quick look.
Yuan Zhuoyue really likes this exquisite and cute little handicraft in front of him, and wants to take some back as gifts for his relatives and friends.
But even if you are moved and want to take action, in the end it will all end in nothing.
All because she has no money.
Yuan Zhuoyue had also heard from the creatures she had rescued in the dream realm that in most cases in the dream realm, transactions were made through barter due to various restrictions.
But there is also a relatively unique monetary system.
Yuan Zhuoyue didn't know much about this, and had never seen what the currency circulating in the dream realm looked like.
She could also go to other dream realms to collect those resources and exchange them for some currency for her own use.
But after a little thought, she still felt that this method was a bit too troublesome and would take up a lot of her time.
Moreover, only in relatively large dream realms will there be products of energy crystals that are valuable and of practical value and are relatively precious.
Before entering the dream, it is difficult to sense whether there are any rare things in it.
As for other common items, it is difficult to obtain a substantial profit from the remuneration earned from transporting them unless there is a long-term and stable supply channel.
What's more, Morax was staring at her eagerly, urging her to study hard.
It would be even more impossible for her to waste the rare rest and relaxation time she had gained after a day of hard work on moving bricks in the dreamland.
Yuan Zhuoyue now feels quite regretful. Why didn't he find a way to get some currency from the dream realm when he entered the Dao Dream Realm earlier?
So, Yuan Zhuoyue, who came to the stall, went through a mental journey from curiosity to desire, and then to reluctantly looking away.
Seeing this scene, Morax, who had been silent all the time, moved forward and came to Yuan Zhuoyue's side.
He spoke in a low voice and began to answer his questions: "...Except for this dreamland that has lasted for thousands of years, a complete currency system has been established. In other dreamlands, most transactions are carried out in the form of barter to exchange the materials needed by both parties."
"But apart from these, there is also an extremely rare way, which is used as a reward exchanged between the two parties in the transaction." Morax, who was wearing the pale and thin shell of Yuan Zhuoyue, raised his hand, and a piece of jade the size of a thumb with a lustrous luster appeared in his hand.
Then, some lines like scratches appeared on the white jade. Yuan Zhuoyue could sense that Morax was injecting his power into it.
After a while, the carvings were filled with a bright and dazzling color, like gold.
Yuan Zhuoyue then realized that the deep lines on it were connected by runes that she had learned from the military and police who specialized in fighting against [Filth].
It can also be said that these are the words that carry the "spiritual energy" passed down by this civilization that hid and thrived in the dreamland.
Although Yuan Zhuoyue had only learned the basics, she could see that the rune-drawn jade in Morax's hand had no other function except carrying the purest energy.
Yuan Zhuoyue did have some doubts in her mind, but she did not speak them out loud because she knew that Morax would answer them for her.
Sure enough, in the next moment, Morax had already solved the mystery.
He continued in that unhurried, gentle and calm voice, "It's just that this special 'currency' is somewhat difficult to estimate the value it can carry in a transaction."
What Morax wanted to express was already quite clear. The jade he held in his hand at the moment was created with his power and carried the purest energy.
It is this somewhat 'unique' currency.
After his initial surprise, Yuan Zhuoyue was able to understand why this piece of jade, which could essentially be considered a crystal of energy, was the unique currency in this dream realm.
Everything in the dream realm is made up of energy and mental power, and jade, which carries the purest power without any bias, can naturally serve as currency.
Because the power contained in it can be used anywhere without any hindrance.
It is difficult to define what value such a special currency carries. This is because most of the creatures living in the dream realm are weak, and the power they contain is also mixed.
Therefore, some creatures, even like Morax now, guide their own power out and find a carrier to store it.
There are also many creatures who create their own "currency", the energy of which is relatively mixed and thin, and naturally cannot be used as freely as pure power.
But Yuan Zhuoyue didn't care about this. The Dream Realm had existed for thousands of years, and this kind of "currency" must have been circulated for quite some time.
Such an obvious problem would naturally have been discovered by someone long ago, and someone would definitely find a way to solve it in a reasonable way.
We will find a reasonable standard of measurement to exchange these varying "currencies" at a value that satisfies both parties.
Yuan Zhuoyue already knew what she was most concerned about, which was that in this dreamland, she didn't have to worry about money anymore, she could create her own currency to trade with others.
Moreover, Yuan Zhuoyue had also seen all the ways and methods that Morax had deliberately demonstrated to her just now.
Based on her estimation of her current capabilities, it can be said that there is no threshold and she can build as many as she wants.
Of course, she wouldn't really do that, she just wanted to do it for her own little wish of shopping.
However, as he raised his hand, a 'currency' carrying pure energy was already pinched in Yuan Zhuoyue's fingertips.
She said to the owner of the stall in front of her, a young woman who looked simple in clothing and wearing a scarf on her head, "...I only have this thing, I wonder how much it is worth? What can I get in exchange from the shop owner?"
The pretty young woman's eyes lit up when she saw the golden amber carrying power in Yuan Zhuoyue's hand, and she immediately showed a look of joy.
There was a desire that could not be concealed in her eyes, but then the young woman, who thought she was keeping her composure, looked at Yuan Zhuoyue carefully.
Then the smile on his face faded a little, revealing a look of slight hesitation and struggle.
Finally, he made up his mind, raised his hand and pointed to the end of the long street, and said to Yuan Zhuoyue: "At the end of this street, there is a shop. This distinguished guest can go there first and exchange this item for some coins."
Yuan Zhuoyue thanked her and walked directly in the direction the young woman pointed.
I plan to exchange some silver for my own use.
Yuan Zhuoyue could naturally see that this medium carrying pure power seemed to be more valuable than she had imagined.
It wasn't just because of the young woman's sudden look of desire when she saw the gem she had made.
Passers-by around and stall owners nearby all expressed the same desire.
There was even greed in some of the glances.
But in everything, it’s the actions that matter, not the intentions, as long as no one clearly expresses their evil thoughts and puts them into action.
Yuan Zhuoyue had no intention of punishing the greedy people so directly.
