He sold ten thousand pounds of fine salt at the price of eight pence to the salt merchants.
Various transportation costs and market taxes are calculated separately.
He could earn a price difference of three hundred thousand pence, which equals One Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Gold Pounds!
Listening to Boer's flattering response, Lynn felt a wave of comfort.
It wasn't that Lynn liked others to praise him.
Rather, it was because Boer spoke to him candidly and laid out the objective facts.
Lynn replied with a word, "Mr. Boer, you're being too modest."
"Purchasing one million pounds of barley, you have also put in a lot of effort."
"The price you can sell the fine salt for, it's due to your own ability, and has little to do with me."
If others give me an inch, I give them a foot in return.
This is the principle Lynn believes in for conducting himself.
Upon hearing this, Boer felt full of gratitude, bowed slightly, and performed another courtesy.
