Well, yes, I mean, if slavery were legal, for a well-formed boy his age who can read and write and perform various household duties, you could easily get well over two thousand dollars for him, in modern currency. But his time-traveling abilities could quadruple the price, and I'm told he's good with a sword, so warrior skills add another three thousand at least, and he has poetry skill, and isn't too picky about food... I mean, really, you could find ways to get the price up to between thirty and fifty thousand without too much stretching.

N-not that I was considering it in more than a purely historical accounting exercise sort of sense! Ahahaha... D-don't pay any attention to me, really, I'll just... go...

Oh no, I'm just, just fine! Absolutely fine, that's me! I think too much, that's all. You know me! Thinking silly things and getting far too deep into matters, right? See? Nothing... nothing out of the ordinary.

riiight...
so two thousand dollars huh.
sounds a bit cheap.

[librariansheart]

...Wh-what was that about?

Ah... Ahem. No, ah, two-thousand would be the lower limit. Which, you may note, is far more than a rabbit. And that's before you add in all his special talents.
