80 Taels of Silver

Gu Yundong went up to him expectantly. "Did you sell them all?"

The two of them stood at the kitchen door. There was a shadow under the roof. If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see the two of them standing here.

Shao Qingyuan took out silver ingots. "The two wild boars were sold for a total of 80 taels of silver. The price of the county's domestic pigs is 18 copper coins a catty. The wild boar is much more expensive, 80 copper coins. The smaller wild boar is 330 catties. I sold it to the restaurant. The shopkeeper knows me there. Including the pheasant, I asked for 30 taels of silver. The big one was fancied by a rich young master. He was generous and directly gave me 50 taels of silver. A total of 80 taels. Here is the 40 taels you deserve. Take it."

Gu Yundong knew that wild boars were expensive, but she did not expect to earn 40 taels in one go.

No, no, no. Wasn't it inappropriate to take forty taels of silver from him?
