章 95: 093 Longread (2)

"I'm cut off from family allowances," Sun Ziang said, biting his lips. "Well, even if I weren't, it will take me a couple of years to afford a longread which can easily cost over a hundred thousand gold marks. Our family remunerates allowances according to the member's capabilities, not their family standing."

"That seemed like a good way to nurture children," Gale remarked. "Unfortunately for you, parts of a longread cost quite a lot. Well, you can always pay in instalments with no extra charge."

"Is that alright?"

"Sure," Gale said easily. "Since you asked for the best healer of your clan to check on my disciple, I can at least do that."

"Oh that," Sun Ziang was evidently embarrassed. "I'll see when my aunt has time."

"No worries. I'll make you a list of items before you go. You can commission the parts from the guild. It will be some time before they can manage the parts, though. Anyway, I'll leave with your privacy."
