The Rebirth Merchant Guild had been in Xinglin Province for a week.
This was the neighboring province of Changping Province, and also the location of the nearest "Seventh District."
Lu PingAn had been somewhat hesitant when they first came here. The journey was not short, and traveling back and forth took considerable time. For a "team," days without profit meant losing money.
And for the team, this trip did not even have a clear objective.
"If it's the Seventh District, those Joint Coins of yours should be spendable there."
For the current Rebirth Merchant Group, there was no point in keeping "funds" in hand. Turning them into resources and opportunities needed for growth was the top priority.
At this point in time, Joint Coin remained a rather delicate thing.
It was a Credit Coin aggressively promoted by the official central government, yet its use had been forcibly limited to transactions involving "Supernatural Items."
Currency only had value if it could buy goods. Otherwise, it was nothing but waste paper.
However, the local churches and High-Level Professionals who possessed the most Supernatural Items remained hesitant. They still lacked trust in Joint Coin and doubted its actual value. They worried that the policy might be rolled back or replaced.
That was perfectly normal. A new universal currency needed a long time and enough "hard currency" to gain recognition and trust. It was merely going through its inevitable period of instability.
"Was this planned from the beginning? Using imported goods to back Joint Coin."
For relatively backward nations and regions, there was no need to elaborate on the appeal of "Matches" and "Foreign Cannons."
Already curious, Lu PingAn contacted Ancient City and received permission to travel. In truth, he was still under surveillance, except Captain Xia, his watcher, had essentially been carried around
