Slow episode this week (feel that will be a theme with this show). We get to really spend some time with our two leads as they talk about life and the world around them. Holo's bit about how the farmers she used to watch over didn't care about time felt very relatable to me. I have some family members that run a farm and they often say similar things about events like daylight savings, holidays, etc. Basically that the cows/corn doesn't care about any of that, so they can't either. They just have to do things according to nature's schedule.
With this talk about currency exchange and arbitrage, I get the feeling that we are going to be having lots of economic talk in this show. It is a bit surprising to me that this wine merchant hadn't ever bartered with goods before. Perhaps since he deals in a luxury good, his clients are wealthy enough to afford the convenience of hard currency?
Finally, just wanted to say that this screenshot out of context is hilarious:
Yep, this show has a lot of economic themes and topics. But not just talks. Lawrence is a merchant after all
