barter with red potion for beautiful virgin elf girl
An elf slave doing light work getting 1.5mil a month [~etc, just read the post above this one]
He gave us a comparison to use early, where like a gold bar (I think a month of income for a common family) was equivalent to a house in Japan, that and the Yugi-oh cards for 3000 gold are probably the closest we get to an explanation, since he also says that things have different values in each world.One thing fantasy/isekai manga and novels tend to do is 1gold = 1yen. Maybe they're lazy, or uncreative, or just used to video games throwing gold around like it's pocket change or something.
Even so, 1.5mil yen is roughly* $15,000 USD, and 350,000 yen is ~$3500 USD, both of which seem ludicrously high wages for a slave/bonded servant. Especially since I imagine that the owner is also responsible for the slaves food/clothing/shelter etc. That said, without knowing what the average monthly wage for a commoner is in that world, it's all guesswork.
*I know it's not really 100 yen = 1 USD, but it's easy and near enough to get a general idea. And I'm lazy.

Some people really be ungrateful af smh my head.
He was most likely talking about a 400oz one which is currently worth roughly 1.5 Million USD, hence comparing it to the cost of building a nice house.According to the internet a gold bar is about 33 hundred dollars or close to 500 thousand yen.
I'm honestly confused about this whole thing. Not only he bought her with the red potion, he will also need to give her salary? It's kinda weird that you need to do both, but I guess the potion (or the purchase cost) is like the signing bonus? Other than the confidential contract, I don't see the point of slave here.An elf slave doing light work getting 1.5mil a month (though she was later said to make 350k/mo in this contract due to the potion payment) seems like a wild amount of money. I guess I don't know/remember exactly how much 1.5mil/mo is in this series, but just from the sound of it it seems like people would just be better off hiring regular employees to do work rather than slaves, for anything other than a romantic slave (which you wouldn't be able to just find a regular employee for, unless legal prostitution is a thing in this world too).
