((Hmm, how big is the barrel of smokepowder on sale? If I count correctly, 15 platinum = 1,500 gold so 10 kegs = 1 warehouse-sized barrel of smokepowder. Right?
Now, since a horn of the same material is 35 gp, 4 horns = 1 keg of smokepowder (give or take some pocket change). Assuming a 'horn' is the same size as Boromir's instrument (or those that American revolutionaries lug around) 4 horns is about the size of a small ale barrel typically found in bars and inns in the real world.
10 ale barrels (on the wall XD) = the size of 1 jumbo barrel. More or less the size of two or so of those enourmous wine barrels found in European castle basements. Perhaps more.
... that can make a small atomic bomb can't it ^^ SQUEE!))
Rhurick grins widely and says ...
"One Smokepowder Keg if ye may, good shopkeepers." ^^

"One hundred fifty gold, please"
(Each keg can fill 5 horns, each horn can fire 24 bullets)
15 pp = 150 gp = 1500 sp = 15000 cp

((Oops, I thought gp -> pp is x100 ^^  ) I hand over the number of gold coins. "Here ye go. Nice doing business with ye all. Good morning to ye." With that, I tip my hat and head out of the shop, searching the streets for Shump. Aye, I hope he ain't too far |

Ervox is the name of the town, originally founded by Calvox and Ermine. --- "Cal is the mayor, yeah... ya didn't know that?" |

I inquire, taking a moment to order a glass of ale. |
