"Generally speaking?"
"Hmm... there's really no such thing as 'generally' in this case."
"Haven't you traded gold ores before?"
"No, I have. But gold ore can't be generalized. After all, the price of gold ore can vary dozens of times, even hundreds of times. Do you have samples?"
"I do, I've brought them!" Jones took out a small pouch filled with ores, and poured them onto the table.
"One moment." Patia reached out, picked up a piece of ore, closed her eyes, and recited an incantation that Jones had never heard before.
Soon, the ore emitted a faint glow.
Opening her eyes again, Patia softly said, "Ore with a one-thousandth gold content, very good quality ore."
"Really?" Jones' face lit up, and he immediately began calculating: "One-thousandth gold content means one kilogram of gold per ton. That roughly equals... sixty-six Gold Coins? One ton can sell for sixty-six Gold Coins?"
