The core problem of the story exists for no justifiable reason

the main character is supposed to be this well read adult, yet when she’s put into the body of a starving child from a poor family she will openly refuse to take anything close to a reasonable amount for items she sells and seeming has no idea what a commission is???, which is even more frustrating because the entire conflict of the story is that she needs money. she can and should have more but at every turn will ask for less and less money from people THAT HAVE IT and are willing to pay her extraordinary *life changing* amounts of many and all she has to say is “no thanks lol” and then spend the rest of chapter crying about how she can’t afford medicine or fire wood

    and when she enters this dirty a** poverty stricken world, she just can’t seem to understand WHY people like nice soap. the story makes here seem like worst kind of reader, someone who likes looking at and collecting books but doesn’t care to understand or absorb the contents not even little. just a fancy hoarder who likes feeling smart

    I'm really confused by your comment and feel like you haven't read the story at all, don't understand it, or it might be attributed to the translation's fault since this one is not very accurate.
    Maybe you can give the novel a try instead because it makes way more sense, and the more you read the more you find out the world building is really complicated and things aren't easily solvable for a variety of reasons (it even domino-effects later on because tiny details relate to bigger issues). The series is very thorough and well-written.

    - Firstly, it's not a poverty stricken world, but each region in it has it's own distinctive problems., and can only be solved in certain order or certain way.
    - Secondly, being well-read does not actually make you smarter by a wide margin. You could read hundreds of books but only retain about 10% of what was read--- this is normal for the average person. Moreover just because you read a lot, doesn't mean you read a variety of things.
    - The conflict of the story is absolutely not about money and cannot be solved with money, and it makes sense she wouldn't understand the value of money here given that there's no basis for which she would know what items are valued how in this world, and what items are in demand. Like walking into a foreign country.
