Does it remind you of Prague Square, the Prague Romance, the Prague Astronomical Clock, or...?
Ed silently put down his quill, hoping that the wishing well in his castle would one day grant everyone's wishes.
The coins used for the wishing well are, of course, bronze dragon coins, which are currently very popular in the territory.
Will's house
Will was playing with his nephew, who was only a few months old, but the child was too young to respond well to Will's teasing.
He then waved a copper coin in front of his nephew, which had a map totem on the front and a beautiful lake scene on the back.
"Look, little guy, this is called a Bronze Dragon Coin. One can be exchanged for a piece of black bread."
Of course, Will was referring to regular black bread.
But before he could even gloat for a few moments, his sister snatched the copper coin away.
"Will, don't brag about it. These bronze dragon coins are really valuable now, you know? People use them to exchange for anything they need, instead of having to exchange other things like before. Plus, you can use them to buy food at the Peace Hotel."
Sister Will was quick to realize that with this guarantee, people no longer need to go through the trouble of bartering. Now everyone's personal assets are increasing, and their personal needs are also increasing.
Therefore, there will only be more and more transactions in the future, where people exchange what they don't need for copper dragon coins, and then use copper dragon coins to exchange for what they do need.
Life in the territory is no longer just about food and drink; other needs are gradually emerging.
"Sister, don't my brother-in-law and I receive copper coins every day now?"
Since joining the guard, Will has never had to worry about food; he may have forgotten the hardships of his past life.
"Will, you're with the guards every day, right next to the lord, haven't you learned anything?" Will's sister was somewhat disappointed in him.
"Will, haven't you noticed that many things in the territory are slowly becoming our own? The hoes for digging, the chickens that lay eggs, and so on. If these things break or disappear in the future, won't we have to buy them ourselves? This bronze dragon coin will definitely be very useful in the future."
As a woman, Will's sister has a rather insightful perspective. These are all things Ed hopes to see, but the process will be very long.
"Sister, I understand." Will had only temporarily forgotten, but as soon as his sister mentioned it, he suddenly remembered some things he had seen at the market last time. He realized that the territory might really be as his sister had said.
"Will, the new houses at the farm over there are under construction. It seems like one of them is almost finished. Do you know what's going on?"
Because Will's sister was still taking care of the children and had nothing to do all day, she was very well-informed about everything that was happening in the village. She saw Will running around the castle every day and wondered if he knew any news.
Will did indeed know some inside information about that house.
Once the lord finishes building the houses at the farm, he probably won't build any more houses for the villagers. From now on, they'll have to build their own houses. The lord will only build houses for the workers.
However, Will dared not reveal these details; they were still highly confidential information, overheard by chance while delivering copper coins. The specific course of action would depend on the lord's decree.
However, the thought of the government decrees annoyed Will, who was now secretly learning to read.
His work with the copper coins made him realize the importance of literacy.
"Sister, I'm not entirely sure about that. I need to go to Eric's house now because I have some things to take care of."
