Morshu is the rotund shopkeeper from Link: The Faces of Evil, released for the Philips CD-i in 1993, where he sells lamp oil, rope and bombs in exchange for rubies. Clips of his awkward animation and distinctive voice became staples of early YouTube Poop edits in the 2000s, and his lines later spread across forums and soundboards as reaction sounds. The richer hum survived because it sums up his whole character in a few seconds: cheerful, mercenary and instantly recognisable to Zelda meme fans.
About this sound
Morshu's satisfied mmmmmmm richer voice line from the Zelda CD-i games, used as a meme sound for getting paid, winning cash or flexing wealth online.
This is Morshu the shopkeeper from the Zelda CD-i games letting out a long, smug mmmmmmm before declaring himself richer. The clip isolates that humming purr of satisfaction, stretched out and deeply content, like a merchant who has just been handed a pile of rubies. His slow, gravelly voice and the exaggerated hum make even a tiny windfall sound like a fortune. It lands instantly as a greedy, pleased reaction, perfect for moments when someone profits, scores a deal, or acts a little too happy about getting money.
