Compared to a thousand gold coins, a single high-grade crystal coin is more valuable and often carries a premium.
Back in the Cuijin Kingdom, when the White Stone Tower was recruiting students, the examination exemption certificate, which granted an exemption qualification, was equivalent to a high-grade crystal coin. Prince Gro spent a full twenty thousand gold coins to win it at auction.
Because it is scarce, it is precious.
Taking a deep breath, Qian Ning called over the shop attendant, instructed them to bring out the secure iron box specially used for storing valuable small objects, placed the high-grade crystal coin given by Richard deep inside, locked it with three iron locks, and finally let out a sigh of relief.
Turning back to Richard, Qian Ning asked, "Alright, sir, all five boxes of Emeralds in my shop are yours now. Should I deliver the gemstones to your residence, or will you take them yourself?"
"No rush." Richard smiled, showing no sign of urgency.
