Chapter 300: Pooling Wisdom for Broader Perspectives_1

"Really?" Dalang knew that Erlang was probably telling the truth, but he put on a doubtful expression on purpose, just to test Erlang and see if there was anything he didn't know.

As soon as Erlang heard that Dalang still doubted him, he got somewhat flustered, "Of course, it's true. I didn't lie to you. While you and our eldest brother went into the mountains yesterday, I bought them from Granny Qian's place. I bought ten in total. Normally, eggs cost four coins each at the market, but because I bought in bulk, and because it was from Granny Qian's house, she only charged me thirty-five coins. I even saved five coins compared to market prices, and the eggs are larger. It's a really good deal. If you don't believe me, go and ask Granny Qian; see if I'm lying or not."

"So, mistress did use her own savings to buy them. Not bad, you've grown up," Dalang said as he patted Erlang on the shoulder, his smile meaningful.
