Miss Rabbit did not lie; at least her family, the Arias clan, had quite the influence in the western lands.
The over two pounds of peppercorns she had sent to Black Stone City for sale finally netted Li Yu a total of two hundred and twenty-nine Gold Coins.
Li Yu toyed with the newly acquired bag of gold coins, these shiny little things each weighing between 4 to 5 grams.
On one side was the current Emperor Edward II of the Red Lion Empire, and on the other was the lion's head of the Vespasian family, which is why the imperial people referred to them as Gold Lions.
The batch of gold coins in Li Yu's hands looked quite new, likely recently minted with hardly any wear, especially when they were all piled together, they emitted a captivatingly beautiful glow.
That was after deducing the thirty percent commission for Ireya. Miss Rabbit herself also made close to a hundred Gold Coins, seemingly having really sold off the peppercorns piece by piece.
