Chapter 22 - Episode 22. The currency is SHADES! Where is the Bank?

We finally landed at the port, I quickly took her out of the boat and treated her, soon she was on her feet.

"It feels like you were just faking it to punish me, if only I didn't witness your pathetic site, now let's go and enter the village I am hungry."

"You little…."

"Wow food here I come!" I run into the village, the first place was the market, this is the only place I would like to see right now because I am hungry.

"Sasha slow down, the town is not going anywhere you know, this is your first time, What if you get lost?"

As soon as the people saw me they started running away.

"Wait! I just want to buy some food. Strange, why is everyone running away at the sight of us?"

"I told you to slow down, now you have scared the people with your big appetite.

"Sister in law they are afraid of your face, now how am I going to buy food and I am so hungry, "guuuuuu!"

"Shut your stomach up Sasha we know you are hungry." Lister walk ahead of me.

"Princess Sasha, Why Mi and Mercy went to another port to feed the horses and prepare them for our next trip. Are you ok with walking?" Ever asked with a smile.

"That's even better, that way I will explore the village, Adventure ready or not here i come."

"Don't forget we are just passing by." Lister said.

"I have an idea I will buy the food and put the money there, like that the owner will be able to find his money, let's see moon cakes 1SD? What the heck is 1SD?" I looked at sister in law confused.

"In this country they use SHARDS as their currency, in short it's called SD."

"I have never seen that kind of money before, do you have one? I want to take a look."

"Sorry I don't, we need to find a place where we can exchange gold for SHARDS."

"How are we going to find a place like that? and what is it called? Maybe it's written Gold to SHARDS, no that's too obvious, maybe it's called Exchange of callency, no or maybe it is called money on money, not that one either or maybe ...."

"Maby you stop guessing and listen for once." my sister in law pulled my Chen up with her finger, I smiled sweetly.

"Do you know what it's called sister in law?"

"Of course I do, even Ever, knows what it's called." I looked at the quiet Ever, "what is it called Ever my dear?" Ever's face turned pink hearing me calling her dear.

"A Bank my princess." She looked down, chewing her nails.

"A Bank? I have never seen or heard anything like that, do we have one in Zumwanda?"

"No we do not," Ever answered.

"But my husband build one in Silia lately it's at the border, and since you haven't gone home in a while you can't know."

"Why don't we have one in Zumwanda?"

"Zumwanda may be big In size compared to Sillia but it is slow in it's development."

"Thats looking down on my in-laws village Lister not fair."

"But it's true though."

I looked at Ever, "why do you think we don't have a bank in Zumwanda?"

"I am not sure my princess maybe you should be the first to build one, and become reach."

"Do people with banks have wealth?"

"Of course they do, why do you think your brother is the most powerful and richest in the world?"

" Powerful yes but reachest I don't think so."

"Henley is the richest man alive, he has his on gold mine."

"Gold mine?"

"Don't even think about it and stop your greedy eyes too."

"Ok I will build one when I get back, and I will visit my brother."

"Closed!?" Me and sister in law corused.

"Why is this thing closed during the day?."

"Don't be too surprised this village is strange, people run away as soon as they see us remember?"

"Yes they are so strange, now what am I going to eat?"

"Today's late twenty tells of SHARDS equal to on gold bar, One super cash is equal to five tells of SHARDS." I read on the notice bold I couldn't help but smile.

"I am off to the market you people can rest here." I started running as fast as my legs could carry me. I was very hungry. I could wait for this too to walk. I will run all the way.

I opened my treasure bag and it had quite a few gold bars. After counting the moon cakes, there were two hundred moon cakes making ten gold bars. My bag still had a little more gold so I started looking around while eating some moon cakes.

"Excuse me my good sir, may I ask why everyone is running away from the market?" I spotted a man walking nearby and thank goodness he wasn't running.

"You are new here are you?"

" Yes, I am just a traveler."

" I see in this town we have a big festival and people have gone to the palace to attend."

"So no one is walking? That's bad"

"What do you need mum?"

"I went to the bank and found it close, I didn't know where else I could exchange my money and gold."

"All you are in luck my lady I am an agent of another bank myself I can take you there to exchange your gold."

"Wow, thank you. I would appreciate it if you could lead the way." The man started going in the other direction, I followed him slowly.

"So why don't you go to the palace for the festival?"

"I was on my way there before I met you."

"Are you not going to be late though?"

"No problem business comes first."

"I find this town strange, how can people live everything and go to the palace? Especially food."

" This is a peaceful town everyone is free and able to do as they please." Wow, I wish my sister in law could come with us. She is holding some of my gold and she needs to exchange her super cash and other minerals too. Maybe I should send her a massager.

"Hey Mr. Do you have something I can use to write?"

"What do you want to write Ms?"

"I want to send a message to my sister in law and my maid. They want to exchange their money too."

"I see, I don't have anything you can use right now but when we get to the bank you can write to them."

"Ok I will appreciate it, by the way Mr we have been walking for quite sometime, are we there yet?"

"We are almost there just after this few blocks, by the way Ms where are you coming from?"

"I am from Sound village."

"Sound village? I have never heard about it, where exactly is it found?"

"Do you have a map? It's easy to show you because this is my first time leaving my village."

"That's great I have a map in my office, by the way my name is Ben I didn't get yours Ms."

"My name is Ever nice to meet you Mr Ben."

"Just call me Ben Ms. That's fine with me."

"Hey Ben, I think this is far enough, why don't you tell me where you are taking me?"

"Yes this is far enough, feeeeee!"

I heard footsteps behind me,when I turned around, before I could see anything someone put a cloth on my nose and I slowly lost consciousness.
