>>672The few yukkuri that do recognise money, often view it as a status symbol, and not a currency. They see humans enter shops with money, and assume that they're allowed to eat the food because they own money, and not because they exchange it. Once again, this is because Yukkuri cannot comprehend the idea of a trade that does not have immediate benefits. It also does not help that coins look like gold and silver badges. Often yukkuri with money will refer to themselves as "rich" for just having a few dollars. They will demand that other, penniless yukkuris be their slave. This is because they see humans serve other humans in exchange for money. To the yukkuri, it looks like the human is serving the 'rich' human as a slave. They think that the 'rich' human is of a higher status, so the 'poor' person must be a slave.
The yukkuris confused understanding of money often leads it to some frustrating situations.
Because yukkuris have a disproportionate understanding of prices, as they cannot count, they will often act entitled to gourmet meals. The yukkuri will hop into the restaurant, and present a collection of coins and crumpled notes. They will then demand "the sweetest mister food for rich Marisa. Now is fine slave!" Restaurants that serve yukkuri based dishes will typically take these yukkuri and give them a 'private table' in the meat freezer.
Even when they bring he ight amount, the yukkuri have difficulties. Often they will enter a store and tell the staff that "Marisa is a high class yukkuri ze! Just look at her wonderful mister money! Give sweet sweets now poor humans!"
They are then shocked when the staff take the money away from then. Often the yukkuri takes this as an insult. They think that mister human took away their money because mister human thinks that they are poor scum, undeserving of the status they it gives. The yukkuri will then likely call the human a shit head, and demand that they "give high class Marisa her wonderful mister money back, mister poor person!" At this point they will be tossed out of the store, by an angry and confused shop keeper.
