The merchant was quite the charmer, Irthan noted as he watched Ronan interacting with his wife, he knew it was all just to persuade his wife in buying his goods, if those were true flattery however, Irthan could feel a wave of pride, a man charmed by his wife's beauty, Irthan was a lucky man indeed. The husband wasn't worried though, he would be the one taking the decisions.
Lisista spun around once, admiring the white shawl adorned on her body, she giggled at his compliments, making a mock whispering sound, but obviously loud so Irthan could hear, "Hush, don't say that, I'm happily wedded with my lovely husband here," Her right hand reached out to hold Irthan's left, the man simply cleared his throat, silently telling Ronan that this woman was not available to anyone else, but him, and vice versa.
At the price's mention, Irthan slightly quirked his eyebrows, that was a rather steep price, but he relaxed when he heard it was made of silk, that material were always expensive, if not the most expensive of them all. While the man contemplated the ups and downs of purchasing the shawl, the wife's eyes were figuratively glowing with awe, a silk shawl, one couldn't find those often, she tugged at Irthan's arm, non-verbally urging him to just purchase it. Nineteen was but a small price for their wealth.
"Hmmm, I see, but nineteen is a bi-" The man paused, without even him bargaining, Ronan was already lowering the price himself, this strategy worked well, Irthan gave a small smile curling at his lips, this merchant knew how to sell. The man examined the shawl once more, feeling its soft texture, this must be genuine and if it wasn't, then this must be one of the most amazing attempt at imitation, he looked to his wife, knowing if he let this go, Lisista would bug him to no end.
"Alright, Sir...?" Irthan gestured, asking for his name, "It's rather expensive for a shawl, but since you said it's made of silk, I can understand, but I need some genuine assurance, tell me where your stall is or if you are a traveling merchant, where are you often stationed? I may be interested in browsing more of your goods in the future," He didn't speak his other reason, that was he would knew where to go if this man tricked them about the shawl. Irthan reached into his pocket and a jingle of mizas could be heard, he then procured sixteen gold mizas, offering it to Ronan, "Here you go, you sure know how to charm a woman".
"Like how I charmed you, darling?" His wife quipped.
"Yes, like how you charmed me, dear," He answered with a smile.
