Nanyang Prefecture, east of the city, Tao Hua Workshop.
Inside a small courtyard with a single entrance.
Chen Mu sat next to a stone table under a grapevine trellis.
He took out all his money to count it.
"Travel expenses 200 silver, rent 12 silver, various purchases about 5 silver."
"There's still 402 silver left, plus 767 copper coins."
"Money is never enough," Chen Mu sighed.
Nanyang Prefecture City is bustling, and so are the expenses.
A silver coin could rent a house for a year in Qingshan County. But a courtyard of the same size could only be rented for a month in Nanyang Prefecture.
Food was also expensive.
A pound of white wheat cost thirty-five copper coins, and the cheapest fish meat was more than sixty copper coins per pound.
"Shape Cultivation Technique must be even more expensive," Chen Mu pondered silently.
"What are your plans?" Chen Mu raised his head and asked Jie Jia.
The other party was squinting his eyes, staring at the silver in his hand.
