"The price of fine salt is the same."
"Right now, fine salt is back to nine pence per pound, just like in winter!"
"I feel that if the price of barley doesn't go down, the price of fine salt will be driven to ten pence."
"As a merchant, I naturally hope to earn more profit and margins."
"But Master Lynn, if you are still exchanging fine salt with me at five pence per pound... I feel guilty."
Indeed.
In Boer's view, he is making too much!
Not to mention that he bought barley from other merchants at a price already lower than the market rate.
Buying in bulk will naturally be lower than the retail price.
It's a well-known fact.
Just look at this batch of barley totaling two hundred thousand pounds!
Two pounds for one penny, which is one hundred thousand pence, nearly four hundred and twenty Gold Pounds.
If Master Lynn continues to give him fine salt at five pence per pound exchange rate.
He can obtain twenty thousand pounds of fine salt!
