[There seems to be a slight change there, and in a direction of acceptance, at least; Yuan doesn't even ask how much both plants ultimately cost, given Kratos only went out for one. (The money leftover is sitting on his desk, along with receipts and delivery times.) Kratos gives Yuan a nod of acknowledge for the offer and returns to the dishes, speaking without turning.]
Not all that much, comparative to other trees; this kind is bred for a high yield while potted, but that still isn't really a marketable production for the oil itself. It will be enough for basic household use, however.
[Which is why the trees had been cultivated; they're very common on poorer households. For some families, their olive tree is their largest investment.]
This one isn't very healthy -- the nursery sold it cheap. They don't know what they're doing. Once it's grown a little more we should have enough at least to cook with, but I would prefer to use it as a condiment with bread or on salads.
