However, I doubt the courtesy angle. He is supposed to be a savvy merchant, and he's throwing away ~30 silver on courtesy. This is apparently enough to buy 30 breakfasts. In today's terms, that's maybe $300. If you only had 800 silver ($8000) total, would you blow $300 as a courtesy to someone? Quote:
They really should have included this in the anime somewhere. Seems like an important thing to leave out. |

you're also saying amarti can pay the 200 in the evening, which defeats the purpose of an agreement with a stated value of 500 by allowing the value to change for the whole day, he might as well use the remaining 200 to buy at market price when the market is about to close let alone from lawrence. it just means he cheated lawrence out of 200 gold for the use for the day so the agreement for 500 was just bs? in actuality it's just 300 in advance and 200 whenever he feels like it? |

you still don't get it. so lets say amarti said screw it, im going to give you 500 at the end of the day when the price of pyrite is supposed to be higher, that means he cheated lawrence out of the time value of the 500, it's like interest. lawrence loses his flexibility to use the full 500 earlier in the day to get a supposedly lower price on pyrite if the market if he wasnt planning on crashing the market
"Is it so surprising that they hammered a few details off camera?" yes it is. because economics is a big part of this show and to hide details is a big slap in the face to the viewer. it's like in the first season, "the armor market crashed but we're not going to tell you the reason behind it so just go with the flow". that would make it look like a retarded plot device just to screw around with lawrence |

In fact, Lawrence must have expected it, since Horo listed only 200 silvers in cash. In fact, the novel points out another reason Lawrence was rattled by the gold: Spoiler for novel view:
