Hearing this, the corner of Yang Jing's mouth twitched.
His senior brother was right. It bruised his ego, but he really couldn't afford it.
After the various expenses that came with breaking through to the Dark Jin realm, he now had just over two hundred taels of silver on him. Even adding the ten taels of Gold and the fifty-tael silver ingot hidden in the rafters of his old home, his entire net worth didn't even amount to four hundred taels.
Even if he went to the Exotic Beast Pavilion now, he could probably only look at the vast majority of exotic beasts. He simply couldn't afford to buy them.
As for common Exotic Beast Meat like that of a Spirit Fish, Yang Jing could buy it from the Liu Family Medical Hall. He got it at cost price anyway, and it was quite possible that buying Spirit Fish at the Exotic Beast Pavilion would be much more expensive than getting it from the medical hall.
Thinking of this, Yang Jing lamented, 'I'm still too poor.'
