When he left the old Monk fishing gear and boat supplies store, Claude was already burdened with debts of one silver thaler and three riaso.

The wooden pirate dolls cost two sunars each, which is equivalent to a lamb naan pancake, and the four dolls only cost eight sunars. However, the bright silver flower-shaped hairpin that Claude planned to give to his sister Angelina was not. It was made of pure silver, not silver-plated copper as Claude thought, so the price was a bit high. Vakuli asked for a riaso five sunars, which was relatively reasonable.

Only the magical cookbook, which Vakuri said was found beside his father's bedside, was one of his father's relics. Although he didn't understand why his father kept this cookbook next to his pillow, looking at the animal skin cover and parchment pages, it was obvious that the cookbook was an antique.

Since it is an antique, even if it is a tavern cookbook, Vakuri does not want to sell it for cheap. So Claude wanted to buy it and offered him two silver thalers.

Now that Sterling X is in power, the Kingdom of Ovilas has prosperous trade and stable prices. Generally speaking, a civilian family's daily income of six sunars, or six yuan, can feed and clothe a family of six or seven people. The monthly income of a civilian strong laborer is about one to two silver thalers, which is about one hundred to two hundred yuan.

Claude's father, as the administrative director of Bailu Town, his monthly salary is not high, only three silver thalers. With some administrative subsidies and benefits, his monthly apparent income can reach four or five silver thalers. Thaler, which is four to five hundred dollars. Of course, secretly Mr. Morsan's monthly private investment dividends and gray income are several times his salary.

Another example is that Claude's eldest brother Albert, after becoming the personal secretary of Sir Fox, the National Councilor of White Deer Town, can get a salary of two silver thalers every month. Although this salary is not high, it is enough for some people who want to ask for help. The people working for Sir Fox also get a lot of extra money by pulling strings and building bridges.

In addition, Sir Fox is not an angry person. People who eat meat can also drink soup and occasionally chew bones, so Albert sometimes earns more than his father. It's just that Albert never thought of using some money to supplement the family income. Instead, he took advantage of it by eating and drinking at home every day. Even the civilian poll tax of one sunar per year for the two years after he turned eighteen and returned to civilian status was paid by his parents.

Vakuri treated this magic cookbook as an antique and sold it for two silver thalers, which was two hundred yuan. Seriously speaking, the price was not outrageous. But this is just a cookbook, not a famous one or a book worth collecting, just like the hardcover books sold in bookstores in the town, some of which are sixty or seventy years old, and the price is only one silver thaler. about.

So when they heard the price quoted by the two silver talers, Erikson, Boacer and Verricro all thought that the price was not worthwhile, and they all persuaded Claude to give up the idea of buying this cookbook and might as well go I bought a hardcover notebook from the bookstore and then came back to copy this recipe book and give it to my mother as a birthday gift.

Claude had a hard time saying that he was the only one who knew that this animal skin cookbook was not only an antique, it was also a magic item. The price of two silver talers was not too high, but rather cheap. According to the saying in the previous life, this is a big omission, and if you don't pick it up, you won't pick it up.

But now he can't explain it to his friends, and no one may believe him if he does, because he is the only one who can see the changes in this magic recipe book. Maybe his friends think he compiled it just to buy this recipe book. Tell a lie to deceive them.

At this time, Claude realized the difficulty of having no money around him. After traveling to this world for more than half a year, all he could think about was how to integrate this new identity without being discovered by others and being regarded as an alien. He really didn't think about how to make money. After all, he is a sixteen-year-old junior high school student. He has no worries about food, clothing, and family support, and he doesn't have the habit or opportunity to spend a lot of money.

Now he only has two sunars given to him by his father to buy books, and four sunars of pocket money that his mother secretly gave him before. It is enough to buy the pirate doll and the silver hair card, but he wants to buy it. This magic cookbook does nothing.

Bockal has money around him, and everyone's equestrian training fees are entrusted to him for safekeeping. He is also the financial director among the four partners.

Four people chartered two horses for equestrian training. The money has been handed over to the school, including the equestrian training fee of five riaso paid by Devilicero, and there is still one remaining
