Of course, even in the Underworld where rare metal reserves are extremely abundant, the reserves of Fine Gold are relatively scarce—not every Zhuoer Elven City-State has a vein.
In every transaction led by Serra, it's impossible to achieve the astonishing profit margins of over 8000 times.
However, with the price of any rare metal exceeding hundreds of Gold Coins per gram, profits in the thousands-fold range feel even more gratifying than outright robbery.
What's more important is that as long as Serra lets rumors slip, people will willingly bring her money themselves.
She only needs to focus on two things:
Showcase her strength, flexing her muscles.
Transport large quantities of food and ensure food security.
This not only dispels some unrealistic notions from the Zhuoer Elves but also allows her to demonstrate her power and dominance.
