Southern Yue Country's biggest store, Thousand Treasure Pavilion.
Customers were streaming in and out continuously.
Although Huang Yue Li was the Manor's Young Miss, due to her ordinary looking clothes, no one paid much attention to her.
After walking around the shop, she found that Thousand Treasure Pavilion truly deserved its name of being the number one shop in Southern Yue Country. All the medicinal herbs on her list were available here. It was just......in regards to the price, it was equivalently heart wrenching.
For example, a stalk of Purple Basil Gra.s.s was worth ten silvers, while one flower bud of the Fire Sunflower was eight silvers.......
(Z: I have opted to use silvers instead of the liang/taels mentioned. Based on my previous experience, there shouldn't only be silver, but gold too. In case of this, writing just silver and gold makes it easier to understand for English speakers. 1 Liang = 50g)
And – these were only prices for the lowest grade of herbs. If one wanted a higher grade of herbs, the prices multiplied by a few fold.
Gritting her teeth and looking at the list given by the little phoenix, she needed at least one hundred of each. On top of the fact that they needed to all be high grade too. In all, if she wanted to obtain everything, she needed at least thirty thousand silvers.
Rubbing her money pouch wryly, Huang Yue Li felt that the reality was cold and harsh.
Before leaving, she had questioned the maid Cai Wei. Afterwards she was told how pitifully poor she really was.
Ever since the disappearance of Bai Liu Feng, her second uncle Bai Liu Jing had used various "excuses" to a.s.sume control over family finances.
Bai Ruo Li did not possess a single cent. Previously she had relied on p.a.w.ning various antiques in order to survive the days.
The fifty silvers within her possession were only obtained yesterday after extorting Bai Ruo Yan. With them, she could only buy five stalks of Purple Basil Gra.s.s.
However, she did not pin any hope in purchasing many herbs from a measly fifty silvers. She had already long planned it out; She was not the continent's number one Armament Refiner for nothing. Even though the current her was greatly weakened and could not absorb any Profound Qi, creating a few toys were beyond trifling. Through that, will she earn her money.
But after one lap, she tragically discovered something.
She wasn't just ordinarily poor, she was miserably poor!
Turned out that even the lowest materials for refining exorbitantly priced! There was no way for the current her to afford it!
In her eyes, an extremely c.r.a.ppy, rotten iron low grade furnace already cost eight hundred silvers. Not to be mention the other items. It was basically highway robbery.
In actual fact, she didn't know that the Armament Profession was built upon money.
The previous her, was born into a large family. Coupled with her genius innate talent, all kinds of precious materials were easily obtained. Naturally she couldn't put these low grade products within her viewscope. But in the Southern Yue Country, these low grade materials were luxury products that only royalty and aristocracy could afford.
As Huang Yue Li was pondering the question of earning more money, a familiar voice sounded beside her.
"This profound weapon, how much is it?"
