Shu State, Chaofeng County.
After handing the last crepe from his snack cart to a customer, Chen Liang let out a long sigh of relief, a look of unburdening in his eyes.
"Finally sold them all!"
He reached out to open the wooden box used for collecting money, which wasn't filled with Great Xia's paper currency, but with spirit coins of various sizes.
These spirit coins were made by grinding used-up spirit stones into powder and casting them with some minerals by Dongling True Sky, to be used as everyday transactional currency by the common people.
Five years ago, as soon as Dongling True Sky took over Chaofeng County, they abolished Great Xia's original currency system and began issuing spirit coins.
At first, there was much opposition within Chaofeng County, since Great Xia's citizens had always been accustomed to saving, and the abolishment of Xia currency meant they lost all the wealth they had accumulated at home.
