fyi, Emperor Alcohol Boshaft is based on a real story about a prank made by renowned wine sommelier, Eric Boschman who buy the worst wine in the store for € 2.5 and relabeled as "Chateau Colombier" and he fool everyone and other sommelier that it is the best wine ever.

Even the name is based on him

It wasn't that long ago they got 10 gold coins that would "pay for our lodging and three meals a day for a year", now they are talking like that money is almost all spent?

Maybe that estimate was if they were frugal with their expenses. They seem to eat at fancy places and shop with some frequency.

You would think Fern would take that into account, or maybe the reason is even simpler: the author isn't bothering about those things, I mean people are using two gold currencies within the same empire, isn't it a bit odd?

Considering Frieren uses that money to buy useless junk in magic shops, I would think that she could get through that money in a day 👀 Look at the pile she brings back to the inn, tell me that doesn't cost at least half the amount they get.
